Indian?? Really??

It was a " you guys ok?" sms from a friend that led us to believe something was wrong, and we instinctively turned on one of the TV news channels. Yes, something was wrong; a series of bomb blasts..again! To think that we had actually planned on going to Connaught Place and Palika Bazaar on that fateful Saturday sends shivers down my spine. We didn't, fortunately...and I haven't stopped thanking God since that day. You see what the world has come to? I am actually thankful! for not being able to enjoy a well earned weekend because some pricks out there think they are doing God's work by killing innocent people. The multimedia e-mail they sent to the news channels was very disturbing to say the least. "your dirty blood will be spilled"!! who the hell can actually turn the minds of educated people in such a way? What is infuriating and quite funny at the same time, is that they still have the balls to call themselves 'INDIAN' Mujahiddeen. Really?? Be a human first and then we'll see if you have the right to call yourselves Indian or not.

Now I'm not gonna bash the Government like everybody else does everytime something like this happens. In a vast and densely populated country like India, if the terrorists want to...then there's no way the police or the administration can catch them a 100% of the time. Adding to the problem is the fact that many of them are actually from the supposedly educated/civil section of the society. IT employees, doctors...you will find them in all walks of life. But!, once you do catch them..please oh please!!! get rid of them. I know, this statement may annoy some human rights activists out there, but these people have no rights in my eyes. A convicted terrorist needs to be executed..end of story. A known terrorist who's still on the run--a shoot at sight order for him. That's how it should be. We're no America, I know, ghar mein ghus ke nahi maar sakte hum (I'd be glad if we could do that though), but swift trials/executions for convicted terrorists is the least we could do. As it is these people have little fear of anything, they suicide bomb!! for heaven's sake..and the way our Government lingers on these trials for years and years won't do anything to dampen their spirits.

The case of Muhammad Afzal Guru comes to mind. Here was a man, convicted of premeditated bombings on the Indian Parliament, and there were Mehbooba Mufti and Ghulam Nabi Azaad shouting slogans of human rights!?? No further comments...but..what the fuck!!!!??? And don't even get me started on the ever so moronic Arundhati Roy...haven't seen another pseudo intellectual and pretentious socialite(yes, I don't consider her a social worker..NO) quite like her. She was one of the torch bearers demanding clemency for Afzal. Go get a life you tool!! Ditto Medha Patkar. Sometimes I wonder, why is it that all human rights belong to the criminals and terrorists? Do we, the normal, law abiding citizens of India have no rights? Do we not have the right to freely go wherever and do whatever we like in our own country..without being scared of some prick pushing a remote button? Yes!..I think I do, in fact I know we do. My only plea to the Indian Government is to hunt them down, eradicate them. You don't feed pests...and at the risk of sounding inhuman and uncool again, I'll say that every person who indulges in any act of terrorism is a pest!
To sum up..I want an India where I can live freely, walk freely without being scared. An India where I can proudly say...borrowing lines from Naseer in A Wednesday:-
Koi bhi ma*****od ek button daba ke meri zindagi nahi le sakta

Rant over...god be with you all.
