Terror Strikes in Mumbai, Assam, Uttar Pradesh in India

Rate: 5 Flag


 
This was the first time three big states in India have been hit in the same week. Assam and the Uttar Pradesh incidents happened on the same day and night on July 11, the Mumbai blast, one day later, on 13 July.
 
IED was used for all the blasts on the railway tracks and market places and at the Opera House in Mumbai.
 
These incidents seem to have become an annual event in India. People do not bat an eyelid but go off to work as if nothing has happened - the absence of angry outbursts and outrage disturbs me.
 
People are slowly getting used to this!
 
I do not wish to die like this - I do not mind that I did not have a choice at the time of my birth.
 
But I mind terribly about how I die and I do not wish to die like this one morning when am headed for work, and at the hands of self righteous people that are lowly criminals and selfish and stupid. 
 
To the "terrorists" and the evil people that mastermind these attacks on India, let me tell you this: you cannot keep a country perpetually embroiled in trouble to stall its economic development and upliftment and out of your way by stooping to mass murder.

Thank you for putting these events into perspective. Well done. R
Sometimes I feel ashamed of the human race and the horrific things some are capable of.

Blunt and touching. I only hope common sense like yours will prevail sooner rather than later.
Thank you for reading - do not thank me, please do not let yourself or anyone get used to these things, let us be angry and stay angry and help each other nurture the anger so we can use it to find a way out - someday soon...
It was a ... big attack. Time will tell the point, although I am sorry for India's losses.
Don, thank you - my theory is, the point of these scattered but regular strikes is to wound India and let the wounds fester so its developmental activities are stalled and we continue to be subservient to the richer nations?
I grew up in an England where the IRA's bombings became just another event that didn't seem to stop people going about their lives with a stiff upper lip as if nothing was happening.
It was of course.
India and too many other countries are suffering for different reasons.
If the media picks up on it there might be some pressure to stop it or should I say until they get bored reporting it, it continues......
Thank you CreekEnd, I am disturbed...I have felt restless ever since Ahmedabad - I wrote you a whole post on what I think, honestly. There are some harsh truths I mention, you mustn't mind bec I wrote this from a perspective that looks at the whole planet as "my home, my country". I think of the 'big picture' when I write and opine. In a way what you witnessed as a child in the UK is really no different from what we experience here. Someone somewhere takes slefish decisions and affects the equilibrium as we are all really, truly connected in more ways than one. People read that in class but forget when they assume office and launch into 'work'.
Er I meant to say, thanks you for the visit but that am disturbed....
