Ishhhhhh............................














I am appalled. Shocked. Humiliated. A bunch of people are spreading terror across the country and killing innocent people. And we standby mute doing nothing.

At best we makes those cluck cluck noises and shake our heads. Poor unlucky guys we think and then move on to do whatever it was we were doing when the news came through.
We forget that those who die immediately are actually the lucky ones. The unlucky are those writhing in pain in various hospitals or those whose family members were dismembered by the bombs and who are still trying to gather the pieces.

Is there nothing we can do to help? Is there no one who could bring back those misled youth to the main stream and give them hope and a few dreams they would want to live for?

Can’t someone show them their mother’s fear filled eyes when she contemplates her offspring’s fate?

I try to understand why the perpetrators do these acts...I try to reason that they are also victims...but to me that think that way is not doing any good...the way this society is functioning is not conducive to the change that is needed is inevitable.....something will give...it has to..

those images are horrifying. may their souls rest in peace. and may the perpetrators of this blood curdling gore be punished with something worse than what they deserve.

It is unfortunate that our kids are growing in such a fearful atmosphere. Me and M, last night made our kids cautious about touching or handling any attractive stray object. It was so hard to answer their 'why's'.
hey.
*Can’t someone show them their mother’s fear filled eyes when she contemplates her offspring’s fate?*
i dont think that would help. they are too hardened for that.
they have to die. there is no other way the world can be rid of them

i refuse to believe that they're all misled, pinku.
have wondered often what drives people to such acts.. but nothing i come up with ever justifies their actions....

I agree with your thoughts ...we all need to be a bit kind to our earth and give peace a chance so that our next generation can also feel the real beauty of this world rather than just read about it on history books...Individuals should rise above themselves and really ask their soul, why they are doing it & does it really benefit them or anyone?
Pinku said…
Aviana, as hard as its to beleive but the truth remains that those who do these dastardly acts are also victims of this fractured world and society.

We need to find it in our hearts to both forgive them and the courage to face these situations.
Pinku said…
dear Galadriel, those guys too while training to become terrorists were shown pics of maimed, raped people who belonged to their community. Those images help them feel self righteous when they make the bombs now.

Dont let the pics have the same effect on you - be sad if you wish but dont retaliate in anger.
Pinku said…
Yeah Mampi i agree the saddest thing is to teach the next genration the truth of these situations and yet hope that they will not have communal biases.
Pinku said…
Sailor...someone kills them and their sons and brothers rise in arms to take revenge and the fight goes on and also the bloodshed.

It has to stop...and for that they have to return to the main stream and live and tell all those around them that they were mistaken and misled.
Pinku said…
rayshma, the reason are many, lack of infrastructure, a feeling of being sidelined or threatened. Most importantly the lack of oppurtunities. And of course the brilliant discourses of some fevered minds thats what leads these youth ashtray.
Pinku said…
dear flying star...thanks for supporting my thoughts. i firmly beleive that cliched as it may sound a good dose of Gandhigiri as they call it now...is much needed.
BG said…

i shudder when i think of the family of the deceased...of the kids who just lost their parents, of the families who just lost their breadwinner...and to think that it can happen to just anyone of us...
Pinku said…
dear Keshi....like we discussed on your blog why drag animals into this? They would never do these hideous acts...this is only reserved for us humans.

Phatichar...u are in a city which just expereinced this...what else can I say? Stay safe

Animesh...sadly not only are those families facing the loss of someone dear, there are economic implications and more importantly the scars remains through life and the trust in the government and country goes down.
We have let down each one of them.
