Why communal riots happen?

It's cliched but true... Lack of sensible handling is just the sole cause of repeated occurance of communal riots in this country.. When the institution acts with political consideration, these are the results.. Most of the culprits of communal carnages are going unpunished... Anti-Sikh riots, Gujrath, Mumbai, Bheevandi, Maarad, Mangalore, Malegaon... the list goes endless.. only if the establishment acts without looking at the face, the communal brigades will stop erupting with mass hysteria... No one with some sense will jump into the act, if the fear of proper punishment would appear in his mind... Mindless authorities exploit every riot for political benefits... to encash the sensitivities of poor... Time and again, their acts encourage anti-social elements to comit crimes in disguise of communal passion... secularism should be practised.. not just preached... and secularism is not appeasement... it's the demonstration and practice of equdistance from every relegion and faith...

Do we have any right to criticize North Korea?

This is a valid question... while some of the biggest rouge nations have piles of deadly nukes.. how can we deprive North Korea, the right of having one? If we have the right to make nukes... even Korea can... There is no bigger threat than the biggest arsenal of nukes lying with the only nation who have ever used a nuclear weapon against someone else... The only solution is disarm everyone without discretion... otherwise nobody will have any legitimate right to prevent another nation from occupying one...

But when a government try to appease, uncle sam at any cost even by bending backwards without appointing a defence minister, it is mandatory to go with big bully's diktat... But one thing is sure pyong yang will never be a Bagdad or Kabul for him to get on with his bully act... A nuke can smoke his courtyard...

a nation of impotents

Two days past the blasts, the so called national media can't stop singing praises on the resilient Mumbaiker, who keeps continuing with his daily chores, as if nothing had happened. Have you ever had a close look on those faces shown in the television. It's just fear, and helplessness.. not courage and resiliance ... The fear originating from the realisation that the establishment is busy with appeasment and sheltering of terrorists... and they dont care what may happen to the common man... The helplessness of the commonman derived out of the feeling on witnessing the truth unfolding right infront.... and yet couldn't take any action.. It's even more appaling to hear the "progressive" and "secular" Shabana Azmis and Javed Akthar's praises showered over the patient Mumbaiker...Welcome to the nation of impotents... who just have suffered enough to feel shocked even hearing the news of apocalypse...
