We have to take bold steps to put an end
to terrorism, be it by an individual or a state. Any one
who disrupts the peace must be tried as a criminal without
giving him a religious cover. We have "protected"
criminals too long; be it in Kashmir, Gujarat, Mumbai,
Delhi, Ayodhya, Hyderabad or any where else. If we do not
bring Justice, the problems would linger, shifting our
energies from prospering to dealing with unabated
terrorism. No one should be above the law.
It is our duty to keep law and
order and faithfully guard the safety of every citizen.
Hate is one of the many sources of disrupting peace in a
society and it is our duty to track down the source of
such hate and work on mitigating it. We have an
obligation to bring and maintain a balance in the
society.
HOPE
Less than
1/10th of 1% among us are extremists, you can slice them
by nation, religion, ethnicity, culture or race, you
will still come up with the same percentage.
It is the goodness of overwhelming majority Hindus that
prevented Gujarat Mayhem from escalating to other parts
of the nation or even permeate into the veins of
Gujarat.
Unlike most of the US journalists who do not question
and go with a singular belief in what is dished out to
them. Indian Journalists have been the fairest in
reporting Gujarat Massacre.
As peace
makers, our words and actions should propel dialogue,
mitigate conflicts, promote cooperation, if not, we
cannot be called peace makers. We have to laser point
criminals and clearly prevent good people from taking
an offense.
