Dont vote for these self serving *!@#

Another terrorist attack............another set of platitudes from the Government....................something for the 24 hour channels and newspapers to fill space during the next 3 days......................and then what....................nothing..........................till the next terrorist attack.

Let us accept. We are a soft state. We have absolutely no value for human life. Contrast this with US or UK. Post 9/11 and 7/7, both these countries tightened their security aparatus and intelligence gathering so much that no major incidents have occured since then. Look at little Isreal. The target of every single Islamic Jehadist. Have you ever heard of a single terrorist attack inside Israel- barring one recently?

We live on fear everyday. Government is apathetic. The guy who was instrumental in attacking the seat of our democracy, Afsal Guru, has become a cause celebrity for the so called liberals and this wimp of a government is dragging its feet on presidential reference of his request for pardon. A swift punishment would have sent the right signals.

I shall tell you why the Government is not concerned. Our bunch of politicians are bothered only if it affects them. As long as Arjun Singh was spoiling the higher education, no one bothered. But the moment he raised his feeble voice against Sonia and Rahul, they became threatened and the knives were out. Terroism doesnt concern them as they, sitting under black cat protection, have nothing to fear. It is the common man who is suffering and who cares for him anyway.

There is only one way to make politicians take terrorism seriously. Pull out their security personnel. Let them move around in an ordinary car and walk amongst the people. Let them be exposed to terrorist strikes like everyone else. Then and only then will they do something.

And we still vote for these self serving *!@#
