Varanasi Blasts - A perspective and the blame game...

As you all know, three blasts have been reported to occur in the holy city of Varanasi (popularly known as 'Banaras'). Out of these three, one bomb was detonated in a famous Hindu temple and that is one of the reason why we see a bit of communal colour being given to these 'Terrorist Attacks'.

Of course, it is a heinous crime and guilty should be punished with no consideration whatsoever but this incident has evoked in me a special response in terms of looking at something that might be deeper than the blasts themselves. I mean there are some things that I don't understand with respect to the incident and am just speculating on the confusion this have created in my mind.

It sounds very funny in a way that every time a terror incident happens in India, everybody, from the high-sitting politicos to the common police inspector, blame the terrorists groups supposedly operating from Pakistan to be behind the horror. I mean what the fuck! IF they are the ones behind it than what are you going to do about it. I mean by just shifting the blame to the neighbors they save their neck from people asking about why is it that the militants can come into India and have the power to detonate any place from Delhi to Bangalore? I am highly suspicious of the Indian police too, I mean in this case, I really don't believe that they don't have a speck of information before the blasts and they can kill, not one but three suspected terrorists within a few hours after the blasts. Also why they are always killed and never captured alive to get to the bottom of the conspiracy? Although I am in favour of killing the bastards so that no Kandhar happens again but? Suspicious, highly suspicious.

Even funnier is the response of our so called 'pseudo-secular' and leaders. At least I predicted the usual reactions like - "The PM has strongly condemned this heinous act" and "Security has been beefed up in all the major cities", blah blah blah. Duh! Do you seriously believe that we have the capability to secure every damn city from the terrorists? Well, I don't. We, as a nation, have become a nation of cowards with spineless leadrers and a 'secular' or should I say 'pseudo-secular' fabric to cover our eyes from seeing the reality.

For me, these blasts in the heart of India can only mean one thing - WAKE UP. But then I know that it's futile. After some time (when nobody cares) an incompetent commission would be setup by the government to look into the blasts and it may as well report that the blasts were an accident caused by high pressure built-up in a cooker in the temple premises, or due to excessive use of the oil-lamps by the devotees! They can also go to the extent that bombers were actually the guys who were trying to pour water on the 'accidental blasts'. No no, I am not kidding at all. remember the Godhra commission, it takes about 3 years to submit a report (when most of India has forgotten one of the worst times in the history of independent India) and then they say that the train carnage was a 'Fire accident'. Yes sir, as much accident as the 'Godhra riots' for sure. Bloody Morons!

Yeah, India, pls maintain peace and calm as we have done for about 50 yrs now. I hope we could say that 'we will screw the bastards to the core' or equivalent to the public. I mean how unstable are we that after a terror attack, we try to bring in order among ourselves? What is the message we are sending out to the bastards who did this, can do more and nobody's gonna fuck you? Of course I understand that, blast being in a temple could turn violent but to tell you the truth, I haven't read a 'Terrorist Attack' being the cause of a communal riot (Godhra excluded as it wasn't a terrorist attack that sparked the riots), at least in India. Please tell me if u remember one.

I would write more stuff about how I see the current situation in India specially after the 'cartoon gimmick' in the next post. Out of time now so see ya next time and I hope it will be soon.
