I was worried this would ahppen this time. I think the way the Muslim community came out really shut up everyone. Otherwise many more would have been killed by political terrorists. Let's see if politicians have the same maturity. The Ranegate doesn't leave me too hopeful but i believe that there was a good debate in the parliament yesterdayKalyan Karmakarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14552556294198718249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8234679178553337123.post-81309067648000996622008-12-12T11:21:00.000+05:302008-12-12T11:21:00.000+05:30I am really glad too that the Muslim community cho...I am really glad too that the Muslim community chose to react the way they did - by standing by India & condemning the attacks. Because the country was so precariously perched just after the attacks, the threat of communal violence was looming over us. Raj Thackerey is a coward who believes in traumatizing the powerless, and he only proved this during the attacks.Scarletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08909702073286784203noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8234679178553337123.post-91286011526051736462008-12-10T15:24:00.000+05:302008-12-10T15:24:00.000+05:30I must say I am very very impressed and touched by...I must say I am very very impressed and touched by the way the Muslim community has come out against the latest terror attack. And this is across from regular folks one knows to Sharukh Khan (loved his interview on CNN IBN) to THE RELIGIOUS LEADERS. It must have taken a lot to not do their black flag protest on Babri Masjid Day. One of the most pictures of the Gateway Protest was that of a train of Muslims in full Muslim attire (beard, white kurta, cap) with a banner saying "down with Pakistani terrorism).<BR/><BR/>I must say I wished my neighbours Eid Mubarak with extra feeling this year (and have already got two packs of mutton in the fridge!)<BR/><BR/>Jokes apart, Raj Thackeray really had the opportunity to redeem himself by standing by the people of Mumbai and being our Rudi Guiliani. I guess I have seen too many fairytale Hindi filmsKalyan Karmakarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14552556294198718249noreply@blogger.com
