while India is burning our leaders are fiddling
by Eapen Zachariah on Apr 27, 2010 08:13 AM

Hats off to your article.Politics today is all about money.May be there is some reverse kick back system involved like the Pakis have with the U.S and Europe.US has been bought up by the Pakis with the aid money given by the US what these days is known as reverse kick back.And Pakis are after all Chinese proxy.Which ever way you look at things we loose unless we fight our own battle.The delays in armament procurement is alarming may be the babus are also getting paid to delay any efforts to arm ourselves in a time bound manner.The first step is to clean up our system a death sentence for corruption would be one step in the right direction.Treason against ones own country is a crime beyond compare.

totally agree with writer...there are a million other important issues...add to his list - how to get money stashed away in foregin accounts...but the govt wants us to be busy with these non crucial issues...so we dont ask for bigger things..

Very true

But the paid Indian media which has sold its soul to the devil will continue to play second fiddle to the wishes of the ruling Congress and sway public opinion otherwise. Serves us right for re-electing the MMS government who fed us false hopes of an elusive high growth rate, but instead gave us a runaway inflation rate!!!

The INDIAN media is filled with retards and Marxists.
by Vishnu Sharma on Apr 26, 2010 10:49 PM

I have hated this organ since the time I learned to read and write.

I want to tear it apart completely and re-structure it.

Anyone cannot become a journalist.

You need proven nationalistic credentials and foresight to become one.

My solution is to herd all journalists and editors in leading newspapers and kill them outright in cold blood.

We do not want this muck infecting the whole nation.

JNU should be shut down and also all educational institutions where they teach Marxism.

We need to purge our nation of all ills and evils even if it means that we have to slaughter in cold blood 20 million scum.

I want wholesale killings to take place which will startle and straighten people at the same time.

Only blood is the answer to chaos in India.

Death to all anti-Nationals, Marxists, Jihadists, cricket junkies and their media sponsors.

Alas and Enmeshed!
by AVIS on Apr 26, 2010 10:16 PM

Thanks a lot RS!

We are now like the last vestiges of the Roman empire....where India's problems are being hidden from the populace and using gladiatorial sport like IPL to opiate the massses.

What has happened to the so called Civil Servants..what happened to a modicum of responsibility...they cannot say that they do not have power....please do not protect your chairs...protect the nation.
Can't we have Durga Prasad of AP IG who singlehandedly wiped out Naxalites to take over and run the machine 'JOBS' in all areas of Naxalite-infested India.
Why do we have good for nothing Anthony as Def Min. --- please bring in somebody who can act...why can't generals shut up and allow CDS with merit based head of Military.
Why do we need to b tongue-tied and hand-tied-behind-back for Foreign policy ---- be aggressive --- use balance of power principles...can't we please increase the strength of IFS to a yearly intake of 1000....we need them instead of the pittance we have now.
BY ACT OF PARLIAMENT let us make CBI a independent organization like a CVC or its use fo bailing out govt will continue and corruption like in ROMANS will kill a civilization called Indians.....e.g., CBI soft again on Mayawati like on laloo, mulayam, etc...this is disgusting.

If Rajya Sabha has people who not like true Senators, please change the system and bring in apresidential system.....there is no accountability, no conscience, no truth and no dharma....is this what we call a nation.

INDIA WAKE UP

Thanks Rajeev Garu.
by Pat Thakur on Apr 26, 2010 08:27 PM

But why're you forcing us? We Indians don't want to improve, hear that? We want to drown in the depths of the murky waters of Kangress's Conspiracies, we want to lick USA n Pakistan & will never mind getting screwed by them, we prefer wasting hours n hours of Precious National Working Time to follow stupid things like IPL, we prefer getting blasted while protecting filthy Bollywood rather than equivocally degrade it. Actually, not improving is in our genes, you know. So better keep your teaching to yourself........

For strategic focuswe need Intelligence,Stamina to follow it thro
by Mahendra Patel on Apr 26, 2010 08:15 PM

Rajiv Srinivasan

yes, for strategic focus, we neeed Intelligence, ability to grade it in Significance and Importance, Act on it , be persistant until it is eleminated or reduced to Managible condition, before jumping to next issue in line.

Now our focus are in earning money, family and Social issues and last our habbits consume more than 30% of time,Like Pan, BIDI,Chai, Alcohol.

The way Indian society survived in last 1000 Years under foreign rules, made them Subservant and Strategically Blind.

This said, It is our responsibility to Wake -up our selves and our FamilLy members, than expand to National Level- We need Public Debates to Generate this kind of Strategic thinking in Every Town Halls of Every City.
