Were the innocent victims of Delhi Blasts really innocent?
We see every body condemning Delhi blasts, cursing terror and terrorists, advocating severe punishment for the perpetrators of this crime etc. All this is fair, but have we ever bothered to go to the root of the terrorism in India? Have we ever made any sincere attempts to eradicate this menace from the root? Aren't we just trying to curb the shoot of the terror tree but letting the roots go deeper and deeper.
They say; the victims were innocent people. I disagree totally. They were not innocent; for that matter even we are not innocent. Let us not go to 1992,1993 or 2001, the years when muslims in this country were brutally murdered, burnt, raped and humiliated in whatever possible manner. Let us talk of Kandhamal in Orissa. We have been listening to the news as to what happened there. How the christians are being slaughtered and burnt alive. Do we pay any heed to such news? Don't we owe any duty towards our fellow countrymen? How many of us came to the streets and protested against the massacre of christians in that part of our country. If such incidents give relief to the hearts of the majority community, why should we repent after our near and dear ones fall prey to the blasts.
