noted Mr Seaweeds

it is a sad thing when any loss happens

But in dealing with angry people, it is pointless to punish without looking at the source of their anger. We are all in need of healing. These angry people too. I doubt if they enjoy being angry for the sake of being angry.

War and killing in the name of religion. Haiz .. it is no wonder that many refuse to believe and lump all organised religion as a mere ruse for power grabbing people to get more power. The current situation of Hindus at practical war with Christians in Orrissa India, has similar parallels. And yes, the loss was hardly reported in the international press.

its like what happened after 9-11. anyone who had a beard, dressed a certain way and had a muslim name immediately was a target for intense scrutiny by the authorities in various countries

acts of these nature further the polarisation and discrimination of people. the resulting increase in scrutiny heightens awareness but in a negative light

maybe the more appropriate examination is which group is responsible for this act and what their motivations are which will answer the question why

these motivations are then relevant to this group and not all muslims. just like if acts of terror are done by a chinese group … this does no represent the feelings and perspectives of all chinese in the world

given all the govts affected by these acts since it began, I’m sure the question why has been asked and analysed by top minds and experts across all fields.

i think the reason why is arrived upon in different mindset and context by the groups responsible which may be difficult for us to grasp. thus the use of death and destruction as a means to get a message across

how shud the world respond? shud the world find out their terms and give in so such acts do not happen again?

and if the world gives in … won’t that be one group of people forcing their view on another?

I just don’t agree with the premise of “i’ll kill more people if u don’t listen to me”.

i posted the above to highlight that people died in mumbai. i felt that the world didn’t cover it as much and the gravity of the loss wasn’t pronounce because it didn’t happen in the US and Europe

there’s so much hate, anger and segregation in this world already. in my humble opinion, i think what’s needed are thoughts and acts that bring people together rather than poralise and discriminate.

The world seems to have conveniently forgotten why Muslims are so angry focusing instead on the terrorist acts. This creates more anger and frustration.
