Its a sad state of affair
by Ashwin Raje on May 01, 2009 12:37 AM

My condolances with the Gohil family, what Damyanti feels is an expression of a dejected mother. Over 100 people lost their life in 26/11, their parents and family must have been devastated by the tragic loss, with each person dead there are several dreams shattered. We need to vote for Change, now more than ever. If we can do anything on our part to get justice to an ailing mother is to ensure there are no more deaths on account of terrorism in India. Vote of Change!

SHRILL STRENGTH
by bharat kapoor on Apr 30, 2009 11:58 PM  | Hide replies

Every day we see Sonia & Rahul speechifying about Congress tackling terrorism with a strong hand . The `shrill' strength is increasing day by day . In their hearts these chair `chipkoos' are so timid that they are scared to punish even a convicted terrorist for fear of losing their chair . And the excuse is full of `black humour'- there are senior convicts in the death row ! Pray must Sonia equate a terrorist killer of security men and a husband killer of wife's paramour . And see the efficiency - AFZAL's case is already 4 years old ! Even if the congress manages to get another term AFZAL'S case will still continue to wait . Why ? Because there would still be senior convicts . The shrill one should know that people realise that preventing a terrorist attack may be difficult because element of surprise is with the attacker but they expect swift action and deterrent punishment when terrorists are caught . That is strength ,not the shrillness quotient .

I guess you have not studied the 75 page nuclear deal and the objectios raised by BJP. BJP has issues about the deal in the current form and were never against the Nuclear Energy persay. Having said that, it is the moral duty of any incumbent government to honour the international commitments of the previous Govt. Otherwise, we would be seen as a nation of detractors.

There was no hostage situation at all... if they had held 170 people in Taj and started kill them one by one... UPA would have released Afzal Guru, without an iota of doubt. Pls do not try to mislead the public. Even Chidambaram admitted that Kandahar release was inevitable...

Rest of india who were lucky must vote
by Krishnan R on Apr 30, 2009 11:49 PM

It is really a sad story and must be painful for Gohil family to have been the victim. In order to protect ourselves from such victimization in future, people who were lucky must go vote for responsible leaders who will be pro-active in protecting the country.

Auditions to join Taliban. Requirements:
by Zardari on Apr 30, 2009 11:04 PM  | Hide replies

Hot-headed individuals who believe in "shoot first and then ask questions", now have a great carer ahead of them. Join us. Never mind if you don't know how to tie your pyjama strings or never brush your teeth. We will test you and reward you stars on the following basis: if you can fire a gun 5 stars; if you cannot fire but can at least hold a gun, 4 stars, if you cannot even hold a gun, but want to shoot 3 stars; if you do not want to shoot but want to loot then 2 stars; if you want to do neither but still want to join up for fun sake then 1 star. We will also consider, how many women you have r.aped, and if you have a police record, so much the better for you - your score goes up. People who have been educated in schools and colleges kindly excuse. And if you have the bad habit of thinking before doing anything, please don't even think of coming for the auditions. Plus, you don't need to be religious. We will give you that qualification. Hurry. Before these jobs are taken by all those who lost their jobs in current recession.

My films are not doing well. I'd love some adventure and not have to worry about where my next 'meal' will walk in from. Can I join up? But I can shoot with both - with a camera and with my mouth.

our people should understand that the govt was sleeping for four year untill these many people killed and then they came up with strict laws...but then the attiture of the govt is so wrong that I doubt about the implemention of all these laws. We need strong govt with strong ideology with strong leaders who has no appeasment for any particular religion, who will not hang somebody because of vote bank.

Mr.Wajid Ali
Congress is not only for Muzlims its for everyone else just like other parties like BJP etc . Please come out of your narrow-minded and religion-based thinking .infact Congress has 80 % hindoos.
I voted for Priya Dutt of Congress today . She has a good chance of winning

Priya Dutt has never done anything for her constituency. She is thriving on her father's name. Just like some other political leaders, she is all play and no work. You might vote for her but that means you are not a level-headed person. And if she wins that means most voters in Mumbai deserve to have 26/11s.
