I know he has suffered, but I would have hoped he would be taught that returning the favour is not the solution. Ah the joys of a vicious cycle! :( The last bit with the kid is positively chilling (referring to the video).

I hope you have read my replies above or on other posts. How does championing for minority cause makes me reject Harsha's claims? And plus why would i disagree just for taking a stand? Kaul,

This pseudo discrimination has to stop. But politicians are always a pain in the ***. I hope someday we can find a way to either cleanse politicians. Harsha,

It's sad to hear that 6 people have lost their lives.But why should you mention their caste/religion? So we have a new CJ of HC.How does it affect your life?You may say that it is going to inspire thousands of disadvantaged people to work hard.But there are disadvantaged people in all communities.Everybody needs inspiration.So are you going to publish the 'inspirational stories' of people from all communities? The main problem that is plaguing India is poverty.The politicians never work hard to remove poverty.Coz they need votes.And the No.1 evil that has happened to India is pseudo-secularism.No party talks about the welfare of minorities without the vote bank in mind. Once both these are banished,India is going to shine,incredibly!!!

Before blaming religion though, I'd say may be it has served its purpose and its time for genuine spirituality to take root. Sharique, am writing up my idea of how to look beyond the mess. Its rather long, but I'll send it along in a couple of days. @ trip: good take about God.

Everybody honestly owns up to their mistakes, historical and contemporary. A great first step would be, as Jaleel suggested, to view pain and suffering in human terms. Rather than in Hindu or Muslim terms. For example, when Saddam, ruthless bloody dictator is deposed, educated Indians should refrain from positing it is a defeat of Islam by the infidel. Also, when Kashmiri Pandits are ethnically cleansed from the land of their ancestors, Indians intelligentsia should be outraged. At least as much, as they were by the Gujarati Progroms. p.s. Tarana - what is unfolding in Iraq, was inevitable. A majority had been brutally supresed by the minority for than three decades, and when the pressure cooker lid came off.... Truth – would be a nice place to start.
