Bullets for Ballot

Sonia Gandhi , I heard has claimed that Pakistan's acceptance of Qasab is a victory of congress. Well, what do you expect from a party that claimed the success of Slum Dog Millionaire. BTW, does slapping of the young star Mohd Azaruddin by his father also come as a Congress Achievement? May be Renuka Chowdary can answer that question.

I don't think its an achievement that Pakistan has accepted Qasab or terror plot. It does not make a difference. As long as the terror network is not dismantled it will not make a difference. I don't just mean the terror network in Pakistan. I mean the terror network in India too. I don't just mean the terror network in India of Islamic radicals, there are Hindu radicals and to an extent christian radicals too. We need to contain all of them. We need convince,dismantle or divert these units to mainstream before they turn into full fledge terror outfits.

Today every party is in deinal mode when it comes to terrorists within India. This must end. There is local presence and sleeper cells. Bureaucracy and Intelligence have been saying this for a long time. The parties should show the political will. They should not try top protect these radicals and convert these bullets to ballot. These ballots will turn back to bullets even quicker than they can think of.

Before talking about international terrorist we must be ready to talk of Indian terrorist. The west has cunningly clubbed terrorism to Islam to get public support. In India that cannot be and should not be done. The govt must make it a point to publicly distance itself from this rhetoric. The minority community must not be appeased they should be made to feel secure.
Every time you appease they will demand more and majority will feel cheated. There will be more divide and even more clashes.

The Indian terrorist is a integral part of the terror network that is working against India. We need to deal with him. He will also be able to lead us to the other guy. We should hope Pakistan to mend it ways but not expect it. Rather we should extend our security such a way that we able to preempt such strikes. Striking Pakistan will be a big mistake. This will give terror networks a free run inside Pakistan and also unite that country against a common enemy India, especially when India not even close to an enemy. We should let Pakistan take care of its internal matters. If Pak crumbles it will be the responsibility of the West, especially US. If it survives and changes its ways good for us. But the real problem will be if it survives and does not mend it ways.

Right now stepping into Pakistan Issue will be like going into a desert without a map and a compass. We should take this time and clear our internal problems and to strengthen internal security. Our parties should not try to use this a election vote bank. National Security is above the wimps and Fantasies.If Pak survives and does not change its ways we will need all the strength we could amass and it would be better if we start now. Atleast we will get some head start. It will count especially because we don't have any backers. Pak has the three As (Allah, America and Army) while we have only two(Allah and Army).

Hopefully Allah will make his choice very soon to protect us and end the Napaks in Pak.

For only he can ensure no more 26 11 happens. We can just try.
