think about it

for all those who dont know me(trust me you havent missed anything) my name is touseef im 6 foot tall, and got horrible eyes... im in degree final year(if u care to know) and i get pissed off when anyone calls me a nerd... and right now im trying to download a dictionary to throw in some tough words (sigh), i wrote (or should i say gave(forgive the grammatical errors)) the CAT this year and for everyones sake, i wont be discussing it...
hmm.. what do i say.. when i thought of writing a blog (inspired by a friend called ahmed whose blogspot is www.ahmediqbal.blogspot.com ) i had various topics but now i think i will focus on the one thing that had (or still has) the country stranded(obviously im referring to india because i dnt think ny1 abroad would be reading this). i know it might not be something to read as a pastime but what im about to take is a view that has not come into the limelight as of yet.. and yeah for the uninitiated, im referring to the mumbai blasts and while i was reading into the different opinions, one photo struck me and made me think.. WAS THE MUMBAI BLAST REALLY AN OUTSIDE JOB....
check this link out http://pakistankakhudahafiz.wordpress.com/2008/11/29/evidence-being-deliberately-ignored/ notice the thread and the fact that the terrorists had ordered liquor ( which is banned in islam)... now i know ppl will say that this might have been a coverup but why would they require one when the next thing they do is send a mail from russia claiming that they are part of a group called deccan mujahideen.. even if we consider that this is another coverup to hide the fact that they are pakistanis then why would these terrorists, who have so carefully planted fake evidences, make calls to karachi from the hotel? doesnt make sense right..
there are reports that they were trying to kill british and american nationals when only one britisher actually died... and the most important events that support this theory are the deaths of the ATS chief HEMANT KARKARE who reportedly had enough evidence with him to make a few high profile arrests in the nation.. dont you think his death was a bit too timely.. and another point to note is that the terrorists had enough ammunition to last 59 hours and if common sense were to be applied, there is no way that they could have carried it through the front gate of the hotel... which leaves two options.. the ammunition was already there or some one helped them get it in and in both cases there is obviously an insider involved..
okay enough theories lets see what the govt does... first they ignore all prior warnings of an impending attack and when the attack comes, they blame it on the pakistan govt without any investigation... frankly speaking, they did not have much of an option because claiming that the attack was an inside job would further pressurise the government which has clearly proved itself inept in providing security to its people and also taking rapid actions in the aftermath of this catastrophe...
now what does the government have to support its claims... an arrested terrorist who is divulging details faster than bret lee's deliveries... i have just seen the photo of this guy taken from a cell phone and for all i know he might already have been dead... just think about it... why would anyone who has agreed presumably to sacrifice his life so that his family is paid well make confessions so easily when he knows fully well that the masterminds of this attack might well be on their way to his house to kill his family members.. the same people for whom he had done this crime... it just doesnt make sense to me...
i guess in the next few days we will have newpapers and news channels carrying reports of the "spirit of mumbai" which totally makes me sick... i mean what do u xpect from people
whose house runs on their daily wages to do? stay at home in fear of another attack? do u think they are not concerned about their security? but can they help it... i mean what are they to do when their saviors are helpless.... the one thing this blast has brought about is the anger people have in their hearts for the politicians and the love they had for the commandos who were given a reception that only bollywood and cricket stars had experienced ... and god knows they thoroughly deserved all the accolades they got and even more maybe....
now if u r reading this till now, i can only assume that you have been moved by the incident... today i read a newspaper article about how people believed that terrorism had no religion and its really hearwarming to see that especially to a guy who has been called as being or belonging to a group of terrorists about 3 times in the past month and trust me it really hurts... atleast now i know that not all indians consider everyone as their brothers...
and where do we go to from now... i dont know... for once i hope whatever points i have given above are proved wrong for the nations sake(after a full and fair investigation i.e) and for our sake lets pray it was an outside job... but if it was an inside job then the nation is definitely tearing apart... its about time we star taking politics and national security (in that order ) serioously because i feel that the two are inter related... lets hope the lives of those commandos dont go in vain...
the elections are coming... should we give this govt another chance? can we trust the opposition? do we have another alternative? just think about it... till the next time when hopefully it will be a lighthearted post, im sighning off... c ya and pray for those who lost their lifes and their families

Nice post. I was hoping you would start ( thank you for advertising my blog, your cheque is on the way :) )
I do believe all terrorism is state sponsored though, politics has a seed everywhere.
With elections right around the corner, and the outcome of the Delhi elections too.

We can just hope and pray that good sense prevails, and for the martyrs who lost their lives.
May the Peace and Mercy of the Almighty be upon us all.

Great one Touseef...when all fingers are pointed towards the politicians they are making the sitation worse by giving out nonsense remarks...Kerala CM gave out a remark saying "Not even a dog would have visited their house if not for Sandeep.." and i would like to tell him...yes Mr.Achuthanand if not for Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan's parents India wouldn't see a brave commando sacrificing his life to save Indians including u...wonder when this massacre will end or will it end ever??...
