Terrorism

Over the past few months, india has faced a lot of attacks by the so called indian mujahideen. They have really targeted a few city and imposing a threat to other cities. So whats their demand? Looks like there is no demand with them. Just to quench their thirst of hatred.
So what could be done? Is there no way to eliminate this threat? There are ways to stop all kinds of these acts... First we have to check our existing security and legal aspects. If we don't have a proper law, then we have to make new laws. These terrorists never sympathize. They don't show any mercy. This often result in considering some innocent muslim as terrorist.
The other way to reduce such attacks is to make them more offensive than in the defensive way. Now they are targeting our weaknesses like crowded area. Defensive in the sense that they retreat without getting into any harm... Ie not suiciding themselves.

We have to study their way of attacking. In recent times, they have often targeted us many times just by keeping bags in vehicles. And often bombs in vehicles are being used as a potential way of killing people. So to prevent such attacks in the future, we have to provide a parking lot or parking space so that vehicles aren't near the crowded areas. There is no other option. We just have to find space...

In the 2008 delhi blast, they have used dust bin as a location to place the bomb. There's nothing to do in order to prevent such attacks. The only way is to educate the people working and owners of the shop to take extreme care for what happens in the shop and take into account who does what and try and go aggressive if they find any suspect.

To prevent suicide bombers we have to use those detectors in all areas wherever possible.

We just don't have the rights to blame the government in all issues. Some people help government by bringing the problems. But the government will be more happy if we could tell them the possible solutions for the problem we bring about. It is the duty of every citizen to serve his country... So lets not blame the government for everything. Even they are humans like you and me. They have a family to take care. They too have problems that we face. Yet they are not reluctant to give up. This goes for all goverment at the center

As in the Indian sense.. there ae too many reasons for terrorism.. there is religious, political, society and ideological reasons for it...

So due its vastness and complexity... sometimes curbing terror is easier said than done...

First and foremost the home grown assistance to these evil forces have to be stopped...! That can be done only by proper channelizing of people's thought towards a National spirit...

Jai HInd..!

To reduce this terrorism we have to watch each area and to note the new person r people who came to this city. This can be find by the people who residing there. IF they have any doubt with the new person,they can inform to the nearest police station.

First the police my be friendly with the people so that people can help the police and reduce terrorism. The police must create awareness to the people so that the people can find some thing from that new person.

The reason : Just that the terrorists wanna show their power.

'..often bombs in vehicles are being used as a potential way of killing people. So to prevent such attacks in the future, we have to provide a parking lot or parking space so that vehicles aren't near the crowded areas. There is no other option. We just have to find space...'
Well said! I agree.. but its not that easy.

'..government will be more happy if we could tell them the possible solutions..'
happy? I prefer a govt that is more responsible!

'..So lets not blame the government for everything. Even they are humans like you and me..'
But they have the 'power' n we don't.

'They have a family to take care'
The problem is they care ONLY for their family..

'This goes for all goverment at the center'
TRUE!


Terrorists follow the policy of 'catching them young' :(
So the govt should also catch them young and '..properly channelize people's thought towards a National spirit..' as Aslam says :)


@ srini
'IF they have any doubt with the new person,they can inform to the nearest police station.'
Reminds me of 'Anbe Sivam' movie.. :D

@bar and aslam.: That could be better done by movies, TV serials and media rather than government.

@bar:
You have a responsible government. They take care of stuff as fast as they can. But they also need our co-operation.

@Phil

You sure are very supportive of the government...! They are responsible..??? Hmmm.. ok. maybe from ur point of view... i still am not convinced about that...

Its upto serials and movies to bring about a national spirit..?? huh.. what nonsense..? ok then what about people who don't or can't watch those..? And the prime motive of any entertainment medium is to make money, and thats what they do best...! Only a few inculcate such feelings of patriotism in its viewers..! Did Gandhiji show serials, movies or powerpoint presentations to impress the country..??

What about having good public role models in society, such as good leaders...? Leaders who are above pitiful politics, religion, caste, creed, language, state etc..!! Leaders whose prime identity is that of an Indian..!

Philip Kingsley said...

We do have very good leaders(we have 1 B population). But the fact is that such leaders wont publicize themselves and wont be recognized. Only if u go insearch of good leaders can u find them. But what i personally believe is that people often take bad people to be their role model.(just my belief)

I do agree that directors and others earn much from movies. and its just another source of income. But these movies and TV serials can be used very effectively to bring in national patriotism and feeling of brotherhood among public(you cant deny that). But the saddest fact is that such things aren't done through movies.

People those who dont watch movies?? among the 100 persons u survey, u can easily find atleast 99 persons who watch movies or atleast know what each movie is about. Movies can address the large public at effectively low cost. ie. u also get income for the expenditure u make. What u said about government making efforts to promote patriotism can be done in rural areas where movies and TV serials cant reach.

To be frank they are afraid of us(educated professionals and other citizens) and the media. so its not just power than can make them rule. We live in a democratic country. They are nothing without us and vice versa. I am not saying that government is not responsible. But saying that even we are equally responsible.

We all remember the proverb

"Money is the root cause of all evil"

Huh.. a leader who does good and then hides behind the bush ( not George) ...? A leader not only should do good, but also inspire others to do good as well...!! A leader must be a good Salesman too..! Imagine if the good old prophets didn't go around spreading God's word...

Oh and does watching movies mean going to theater and watching it, or on pirated CDs/DVDs..?? But cinema is cinema... i mean kids will imitate shaktiman or superman, but not Kamaraj or Gandhi... Hmm... too bad.

Oh and i dont need to take the survey... I know the ONE person..! :P ( Top secret *wink* *wink* )..
Anyway.. lets us hope that we have lot more sensible cinema, that does not just involve one man killing a hundred, a half clad heroin singing in the rain, "punch" dialogues, and one line stories... and have movies that actually serve the purpose that u r refering too..!

And politicians are terrified of us..? Hmmm.. i dont see any valid reason for that. We are selfish, self-indulgent, self-serving, money-chasing morons who get paid more than they deserve. We only care for our own good, our jobs, our family and don't worry about the rest. In fact, the politicians ( most if not all ) and us ( most if not all ) are of the same breed actually...!! They should be loving us..!! :P

Philip Kingsley said...

Not hiding behind the bush!!!> nowadays media are very much interested in bring out other's faults rather than other's goods. so people never get to know. it just requires a rumor to bring down one's name!!!


hmmm.!!! dai... i thought about making a blog post about movies. But u finished all of it in just a paragraph :(

We may be of the same breed. But we can actually got the power to bring them down from the power(at least once in 5 years).. off course the cycle continues!!!
