If your life is in love with terror, then learn to hate life" -- this is the message 'they' are trying to bathe our minds with... how much they'll succeed, well, depends on us !
It isn’t just the antagonism and social antipathy that is working behind the scenes. It’s the coldblooded ambition that is far too strong, determined and unique. It seems Saddam and Osama kills have failed to pose an exemplary presage to the culmination in the rate of such atrocities. We donot even have to take this up with world terrorism; our homeland has herself become a dire witness of carnages. Be it the precursor to Operation Blue Star in Punjab, armed insurgency in Jammu and Kashmir or the explosions in German-Bakery at Pune, Indian Mujahideen and Harkatul Jihad-al Islami attacks at Varanasi and Lashkar-e-Toiba terror at Ayodhya, or the perilous sequence of Mumbai bomb blasts for about double a decade now, the damned terrorists have been able to prove their mettle in instigating awe and ordeal perniciously in Indian lives.
The fear has been provoked once more as a part of the heinous chronology. The people of Mumbai whether travelling by the train, an auto, a crowded bus or a well-groomed taxi with a hi-fi music system, are taken to be a prey every moment of their lives. The working members in the families of the common class are all playing the game of luck with death now, every minute of every day. There has been this persistent admissible level of lacuna in intelligence… the NTRO aided with IB, DIA, RAW, FIU, and JIC could not yet devise a fail-safe measure to tackle… and still Mr. Chidambaram sets out his stall of military intelligence. He speaks his way in jest, "Having no intelligence in this case, however, does not mean that there was a failure on part of the intelligence agencies.”
There have been no leads to evidence this smelly act. Who can say, out of the supposed 850+ terrorist cells rustling all across the country, which did trigger the alarm, if our own Government puts on facts butterfingered? Who is going to be answerable for the terrible loss of these 19 lives and another 23 in extremis? At the current rate of population growth, the entire country is gonna be chock-a-block in a few centuries; will that imply alarms set off in NH4NO3 explosives at every corner of the busiest streets of India?
Contemplating of the aftermath, the insurance agencies suffered some notable loss, indeed. Mrs. Aishwarya Rai Bachhan and family called off French award ceremony… families of the deceased declared by Mr. Chauhan a compensation of ~US$11k! Eminent thinkers, revolutionists, television actors and actresses, politicians, public intellectuals across India exerted criticisms. Some social networking sites got crammed with updates condemning ample lack of preventive measures… Every Mumbai hot-spot was tipped off. Every human emotion got accelerated; all hearts started pounded faster and minds thinking faster. You can introspect the minds of the people in Mumbai only if you can imagine your building is having an IED in the floor you are sitting! But this entire tizzy is subdued listening to the ‘prescribed’ and empathizing mollifications from the inspiring public addresses by our respected leaders and politicians, akin G.W.Bush’s let-up speech post 9/11 catastrophe for the appalled American souls.
If these ~600 deceased souls (for all Mumbai blasts) are deemed likely to RIP, if hope to be restored and peace to be preserved forever, then our Intel units and Govt. needs to work up synchronously to invent new and avant-grade mechanisms to detect threats when and where possible. May it be the encompassing installations of CCTV-s (eyes) or the launching of the Indian NCTC, security loopholes should now cry out for a sweeping reform.
…all these souls putting themselves out to sufferings and omen, are all ordinary human beings like us. They dress in white, green, black or orange pajamas to represent the normal domestic worker-class, or may be in formal blazers, ties and trousers to represent the business class, or may be in a fancy T-shirt and Nike knickers to represent the frolicsome youth class, or may be a very simple shirt and pant with an office folder to represent the commonest class germane to thousands of servicemen, but there lie intentions within, which may hurl and dismantle hopes of millions, instill in a despair for life and crave for revolt and tension. They set out for their mission undeterred, with a promise simply uncompromising. But now, it’s the crunch to detect them & fight them back, make them clear we are going to walk through the nine yards and put off their dreams of inflicting mayhem and propagating distraught. No one can snuff out terrorism from our lands, it will keep cropping up with time, but if we can see through our wills with enough grit, we can certainly reduce the flaws to the minimum. Let's join hands...
--- The WAR has already begun, for long...
