Strange that none of the INDIAN media (TV or Print) have picked this up at
all. Or have they been deliberately ignoring it?
Have a look at the attached pictures of one of the terrorists.
Notice the orange thread / band on his right hand.
Tying a red thread or cord around the wrist is a Hindu practice and it is unlikely a Muslim, especially one politicized enough to carry out
an attack such as this, would observe it. I think this provides more evidence that this was a false flag operation or at least an attack by a non-Muslim group.
For more information about the significance of the red thread see wikipedia.
Additionally, the terrorists inside the Nariman House Building were
reported to have stocked up on supplies on Wednesday evening, buying
not just food items but liquor, among other things, from a local store
Again, it is highly unlikely that a Muslim, let alone a ’Mujahid’, and especially one politicized enough to carry out such an attack, would consume liquor in normal life, let alone hours before his inevitable ’martyrdom’.
Its very possible that the Indian political party ”BJP” carried out the attacks since the elections in India are near.
I will open my eyes, but don`t you think its a bit strange your media is so silent about this.
Your media is controlled by the government are will tell what India govt. wants to say.
Have you not heard of atrocities against Christians by Hindus, raping of nuns. ALl those were followers of Hanumna. Hanumna is a lord who is worshiped by Hindus.
Some terrorists were speaking in Marathi as well. Isn’t this enough to tell that they were Hindus.
I condemn the attack on Christians in strongest terms. But, that does not mean that I would be led astray on an issue like this.
All your agruments are based on the assumption that these people are muslims. Terrorists have no religion and they can do anything that includes all those things that you are citing.
Thanks for educating Indians and the world that the terrorists in Mumbai were Hindus!!!
If only your argument was not juvenile, it could have been just brushed aside with the contempt that it deserves.
But you seem to believe that you have done a great bit of RESEARCH by pointing out that the red thread is a practice among Hindus.
Thanks for educating the world.
This is what you have said: ``Again, it is highly unlikely that a Muslim, let alone a ’Mujahid’, and especially one politicized enough to carry out such an attack, would consume liquor in normal life, let alone hours before his inevitable ’martyrdom’.’’
Consumption of liquor in normal life ... by Muslims? It surprises me that you adopt a moralistic tone on something as trivial as consumption of liquor.
Great!
You believe this person who carried out the attack was a MUJAHID.
Was it a Hindu who killed the two Bhuttos? The father and the daughter, both.
Was it a Hindu who brought down General Zia ul Haq’s aircraft?
Please look inwards. One of the biggest challenge to the Pakistan nation is the threat from terrorism.
By the way, I have been lucky enough to visit Pakistan and was showered with love by my friends.
There is no need to jump the gun. The evidence is not out yet as to what all had happened. Or who did it?
Please for God’s sake, don’t try to give it a Hindu or a Muslim face!
So I am sure it isn’t a hindu group such as the Sangh Parivar, which is a low tech operation that brings it’s terror using the traditional weapons of the Ramayana, spears and swords.
How very wonderful?
We have to now learn about Ramayana from bigoted people like you who have no respect for other religions.
Sangh Parivar? ...
Ramayana ... low-tech?
How much or little do you know about your own scriptures that you can afford to mock those of others?
I don’t think Islam teaches anybody disrepect towards other religions.
At least, none of my Muslim friends has told me so, till date.
And I am among believers of all faiths in India who know about their respective faiths as well as any person in this whole world.
As long as there are people like you around, ... uneducated, bigoted and with little respect for multiple faiths and beliefs ... the world can’t be a safe place.
Thanks for informing us that people like you exist!
Those blasts weren’t carries out by traditional weapons, but using RDX.
Hindu militants are getting well funded these days.
How can you be so stupid to tell Indians that this attack was carried out by Hindus.The investigations have not been completed yet.This is as stupid as saying that the ISI is behind it.Lets wait and see how the Indian government goes about it’s own investigation...and I hope ISI and some other countries are also associated with it so everything is above board.
should be
We are the ones who are being accused of killing and creating havoc in our own country
Shutting once eyes at evidence or taking note of it.
Wrist band is a fashion accessory..they come in all colors and size....So you call it an evidence? Nothing but Silly!
Unless you are one of them who planned to mislead the media by tying it!
Any answers Arsalan??? I think, being a human being, you should support the Indians in their moment of sorrow!
It proves that you all support terrorism. you only say that you don’t want terrorism etc.. you might be seeing the wrist band of the terrorist (in pic), but can’t you see his eyes, his body language. You people are trying to convince the world that we generates terrorists. Go and see Pak occupied Kashmir, you will find your answer and complete bio-date of the person in pic.
Ajmal Amir Kasab (or Azam Amir Kasav) was captured by police after a shootout near the docks in southern Mumbai. He was wounded and feigned being dead, but was picked out by police after he was seen breathing.
Kasab said 20 Pakistanis began training in terror camps in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir more than one year ago. The group trained in the Kashmiri camps ”almost five-and-half months, during which the terrorist were taught the use of sophisticated arms and ammunition.”
After the training at the Kashmiri camps, the group was ”given a months leave and were ordered to gather in Karachi after the break for training in boating, rowing and swimming by the Pakistan Navy.”
The terrorists were then given maps and other information on their targets in Mumbai and trained in attacking the targets.
This is clear evidence, that Pakistan was involved. Let me see how you deny that.
Pakistan!!!! now, what do u have to say!! Now please don’t say that Indian govt. picked up a hindu boy, trained him to be muslim and sent him to Pakistan, to get training!!!! and after he got trained, called him back to mumbai, to leash violence at mumbai!!!
Perhaps the arrests of Indian army officers involved in bombings have panicked the Indian establishment? Many analysts believe it is a cover up and inside job because there are so many gaps in the reports.
India does not need external enemies as long as racist Hindu Fundamentalists are deeply penetrated in the establishment. BJP resent the fact that current ruling Congress party is headed by an Italian Sonia Gandhi. Well Congress Party was formed by British A.W Hume. Some times it is easy to occupy a country but it is very hard to subsist that occupation be it Kashmir or Palestine?
The racist ideology of Hindu Supremacist’s and their love affair with Israel and her polices, would bring sleepless nights and terrifying days for the Indians as common Israelis are feelings for long times and Americans have been feeling since 9/11?
Again, it is highly unlikely that a Muslim, let alone a ’Mujahid’, and especially one politicized enough to carry out such an attack, would consume liquor in normal life, let alone hours before his inevitable ’martyrdom’.
Remember Muhammad Atta & Co? They not only consumed alcohol but apparently paid for the services of a hooker the evening before they carried out the attacks.
Can you provide us any link, pictures of that? Or should be only go by your word.
What ’evidence’ are you talking about? Didn’t I just mention about the practice of wearing the sacred red thread is not exclusively Hindu? Have you ever been to a mazaar of a holy Muslim man like Nizamuddin, Gareeb Nawaz, Salim Chisti etc?
As far as the evidence of indulgence in alcohol by the 9/11 attackers is concerned, Williams, Paul L. in his book Al Qaeda: Brotherhood of Terror, 2002, writes
There were numerous reports in the media of Atta and al-Shehhi going to Shuckum’s Oyster Pub and Seafood Grill, a sports bar in Hollywood, Florida, on September 8, 2001. Atta, al-Shehhi, and a third unidentified man reportedly drank heavily and played the Golden Tee ’97 arcade game there. The bartender said ”Atta drank vodka and orange juice, while Al-Shehhi preferred rum and cokes, five drinks apiece. They were wasted [visibly intoxicated].In the TIME article The New Breed of Terrorist by Johanna McGeary and David Van Biema citing sources and investigation evidence write:
Hollywood, Fla., is an overlooked burg outshone by Miami on one side and Fort Lauderdale on the other, trying to grab some limelight with a string of sushi and blues restaurants. One such establishment is Shuckums Oyster Pub and Seafood Grill, a music sho wcase with the requisite life-size shark mounted on an ocean-colored wall. It was at Shuckums, on Sept. 8, that Mohamed Atta and Marwan Al-Shehhi did some premass murder tippling. Atta drank vodka and orange juice, while Al-Shehhi preferred rum and cokes , five drinks apiece. ”They were wasted,” the bartender recalled, and Atta objected to the $48 bill. Tony Amos, the manager, asked if they were short the cash. ”No,” said Atta. ”I have plenty of money. I’m a pilot.” And he hauled a wad of $50 and $100 bil ls from his pocket, eventually leaving a $3 tip..
The 9/11 attackers availing services of prostitutes before the attacks is also well documented in Boston Herald that was following the investigations.
It says:
While preparing to unleash their twisted ``holy war’’ on America, some of the suicide hijackers set aside strict religious beliefs to whet their lusty appetites, partying with a high-priced hooker in Hub hotel rooms.Obviously, you cannot come up with anything of that sort. Pity.
A driver for a pair of local escort services told the Herald yesterday that he drove a call girl to the Park Inn in Chestnut Hill on Sept. 9 around 10:30 p.m. where she bedded down with one of the mass murderers. It was her second trip to the terrorist’s room that day.

i dont have ne clue that how can u be so stupid.we Indians are facing this problem since last 60 years n thts just bcoz of Pakistan.i dnt know wat u r trying to prove by telling that the terrorist was a hindu.u cant deny that 99% of the terrorist activities are carried on by muslims.do u have ne answer for that?
A piece of advice for likes of you:
” Better to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.”
I see from the comments that temperatures are running high, and that accusations and counter-accusations are being thrown around with no proof anywhere, whatsoever.
I am not an Indian or a Pakistani, but I can very well understand why tempers are flaring (I’m an Anglo-Saxon who saw 9/11).
It’s 10:55 Paris time and I have just visited 12 press agencies and news sources in Europe, America and, more importantly, on the Indian sub-continent.
There is nothing at all, nothing, anywhere, that would prove, or disprove, the implication of Pakistan, Indians, Muslims or Hindus in Mumbai.
(Unless someone has information that I don’t).
There seems to be mounting evidence that this attack was carried out from Pakistan, but, and it’s a very big but, even if this is PROVEN to be true, someone would still need to PROVE that the Pakistani government helped plan it or even knew about it.
Those in India will understand, because they were evidently not able to prevent the attack, which demonstrates that a government cannot know everything in that part of the world. The Americans are doing better, sure, but do you know the extent of the intelligence capability they have developed since 9/11?
Intelligence resources in India and Pakistan are cosiderably lower, which leads me to think that it remains entirely possible to attack an Indian city, unfortunately, and that it is also possible to train terrorists in Pakistan, all without their governments being able to stop it.
Sad, but true.
I just think we should wait until the Indians show the proof they claim to have.
Until then, it’s all conjecture..
(My take?
Operation planned in Pakistan, by Pakistanis. But NOT with the government’s knowledge. This is, of course, only my impression, gained from the information I have been able to read, and it is NOT a statement of fact.......)
Thank you.
I am about to post an article which is neither written by an Indian nor Pakistani.An article at this hour by an Indian is treated more as a finger-pointing than an attempt to set the records straight!!The article is not bundle of facts but only an attempt to tell that there is no point in providing escape-route to Pakistan.
You are correct that it’s to early to blame Pakistan in absence of concrete facts.But that should not prevent us to view happenings in light of proper analysis.I am no politician and ,therefore,not interested in blame game.But that doesn’t mean I should start viewing moon as sun.
Sorry!I misspelled your name.
I will go to the article in half-an-hour (coupla things to do), particularly if you think it has something better to express than mud-slinging.
LOL!! GIMME FACTS!!
Particularly as, being from the West, I don’t, and cannot, have a ”grass-roots gut-feeling” about it all.
I’ll go wherever the facts take me....
Read you later and thanks....
LOL!! I thought it was funny!! Sort of a Jewish twist!!!
If I wrote your language half as well as you write mine....
And, as you must be aware, I do NOT check my comments for typos.
Not important, and, as I said, sometimes funny....
To make typos an issue is work of petty souls.
I think a writer is judged more on the basis of ideas he/she shares with the readers.Style of writing,construction of sentences and typos (if you are hyperactive in the cyber world)are very insignificant things.I mean they are important but not as important as one’s ideas.
Anyway, I have no authority to teach some new tricks to an old dog like you!I am ,at present,more interested in learning than teaching.It would be nothing short of foolhardiness if I start zeroing in on typos while reading the works of likes of Michael.....
Lastly, my articles and comments are full of typos.I just can’t avoid them.
And yes, I am not interested in mud-slinging either.It’s not in my blood.Facts.I have not only great liking for facts but also for sound interpretations.Interpretations are more important than facts.
But I know the Ramayana, as many Muslims do, better than most Hindus know the Quaran. This along with most Hindu literature exists because Muslim kings, liking good yarns had them translated and carried these stories through the Arab world and Europe. It can be argued that most Hindu stories were word of mouth until they were first written down under the patronage of Muslims.
I know that this is not in context to the discussion, but I think credit should be given where it is due. And also as a peace offering and condolence to Indians and Hindus on board.
Lot of people know the stories of the epics because they are interesting stories with moral lessons which can be used even without considering the religious aspect...its nothing strange
Is this piece inspired by the fool with the red cap with two dumb lasses whom I just saw on youtube? He was saying the same thing. He went on to say that 9/11 was done by USA themselves & this is done by Indians themselves!....
Please note a few things...
1. Just a wristband which happen to be of a certain color does not negate all the trails of emails & satellite phone calls which are traced back to Pakistan.
2. It might even be a deliberate attempt to create the confusion and point fingers at RSS...even killing Karkare can be the motivated by same ambition (well if you can, I can cook my conspiracy theories too)
3. About taking liquor...I dunno where did you get these info, (well you people always had better info about terrorists)...anyway...that is nothing strange...these are no virtuous people...just a bunch of brainwashed vermins who think they’ll get 72 virgins if they die killing Kafirs...
4. The very fact that in an Indian forum you are still allowed to post such things and people are still trying to reason it out, shows which one is a democratic country.
5. Please stop living in denial....Pakistan doesn’t need to be worried of India or US...you biggest enemies are your own people...
I am happy that you decided to apprise him( Mr. Abid) of the bare facts related with scriptures.I didn’t do so because that was not in tune with the ongoing discussion.
Pakistan ,if it did not mend its ways,is bound to implode due to its own weight.
I am in some kind of hibernation...but couldn’t resist it this time...it had to be retaliated...
Pakistan to-day is a functioning anarchy
and educated people like you need to introspect why it is so. Faster you do this the better is - otherwise there will be no Pakistan tomorrow. Religious fanatics in your country have already started threatening openly to take over reins of power in Pakistan. This is not a wake-up call it is an alarm bell
ringing loud and clear. The ”thread” that you talk about on the wrist of the terrorist is the thread that will soon become a noose round your neck - unless you open your eyes and accept the reality of Pakistan’s ( not necessarily Pakistan Govt) involvement in Mumbai attack.
If we do so we are equal to our politicians.
ur ”queries” & ”theories” have all been dissected before...read previous comments...
don’t try to twist facts....D’souza just said some of the cops din’t fire...that is nothing unusual considering those people are ill equipped for such sudden and intense attacks...
And it doesn’t remove all those satellite phone calls traced back to Pakistani servers...stop being ignorat...Pakistan is ruining itself in pursuit of ruining India...
P.S. Why are you giving the Nazi salute on your picture?
You believe that wearing fancy coloured bands makes a guy Hindu.Ridiculous. Then every guy who wears a beard without a moustache should be a Muslim..eh!This is not even an article worth publishing.
Do you expect your Pakistani terrorists to enter India with their customary white ankle-high pyjama and kurta with the cap?
And do you think you can concoct a story by making people believe what the Pakistani terrorists did to camouflage their identity like keeping liquor bottles and fake id cards in their bags?
Try to find answers to the list of calls made by these terrorists to Pakistan.Also try to answer the confessions of the terrorist made to the FBI team from US.He is spilling the beans out to the whole world with evidence and those are being verified one by one..
Anyway don’t bother about other economies...save your GM if you can or think about Lehman guys who are out of the job already...
As for the auto industry, the debate going on in Washington DC is a charade for public consumption. Who do you think is going to make american military vehicles and tanks? Will the US contract this to Japan? Give me a break.
You sound very passionate. But also very blinded by what hindus call maya or things of this world. Don’t your spiritual teachers tell you everything in this world is fake and unreal. The hindu fundamentalist believe they are going to start a war to finally wipe Pakistan off the map. After a terrible nuclear war it will become obvious to the survivors that peace and harmony is a better solution.
seeing some professional indian preachers out there you think all indians dwell in the world of unearthy spiritualism? and won’t retaliate when attacked?....
and anyway talk was not about a war with Pakistan ....it was wiping out terrorist bases out there...its apalling and irritating to to see totally detached people with limited knowledge use the phrases like ”hindu fundamentalism”....why you are still clueless about islamic fundamentalism even after 9/11 screwings...
And about GM...don’t think it can survive only with military orders...it has lost its passenger markets...
I don’t expect to change your mind or anyone else’s. Like Arjuna you are fated to kill your uncles and cousins, the Pakistani’s, in the coming war. You cannot change your fate. Nor is the tide of history going to suddenly reverse.
I personally have escaped the karmic cycle. So your petty hates and economics mean nothing to me. But to save my own soul it is my duty to tell those who have ears to listen why things are happening and what will happen in the future.
gimme a break from those conspiracy theories...only if you apply a bit of mind u’ll find 20 loopholes in those stories...
And anyway you once again showed you ignorance when you mentioned Iraq war...Iraq war is being fought on a totally different ground and most of the world oppose it....the direct aftermath of 9/11 was the attack was Afghanistan...and no one directly opposed it...
if u r so righteous, save the American first...anyway if you think all Indian are Gandhians you are making a mistake...it’s unfortunate that when people are being killed on the street you are taking it as an opportunity to show off your non existent wisdom...
passivity, tolerance, resilience under repeated attacks in nothing but cowardice...Thankfully US din’t show cowardice after 9/11....neither should anyone else...
1.come out from your illusion...u created them...but no longer own them...u created a Frankenstein...and got screwed in the process...now u hav to fight back...Michael Moore is also a propagandist...u can’t place 100% faith on him...just making money by sensationalizing it...
2. So where is the enlightened being who ”escaped the karmic cycle” and was out there to save people’s soul? Why sudden statements like ”We bought and paid for islamic fundamentalists. We own them. They fight for US. ”...
you are just a hypocrite who by any means wants to show off how intellectual he is...but with conflicting remarks you have only made it clear who is at fault...
You don’t understand where I’m coming from because I come from the future ... from a post-modernist perspective. Western Philosophy did not end with Sartre as you may have been taught.
But I’m not against you. Please, take this gun and slay your enemies. If they’re muslims, or christians or whom ever you hate. And go with God and may they protect you.
why don’t you tell the Pakis to be patient?...don’t distort spiritualism...
go back to your ”future”...u might find some takers...or better would be to start writing sci fi for Hollywood movies...
You mentioned that ”911 coincidences” and other documentaries of their ilk have ”20 loopholes”. I am very interested in learning about these ”loopholes”. Please tell me where I can find an intelligent refutation of these theories.
P.S. And not the Report of the 911 Commission. This official US Government document is sorely incomplete and, by it’s own obfuscation discredits itself.
Thank you for your assistance.
not just the statement...but the reasons for making them...
and also...this thread was basically about Mumbai attacks...put your theories about that too...(not the ones given by the artcile writer....those have already been nullified by many)
P.S. Why are you giving the Nazi salute on your picture?
and you don’t have to invoke Hitler to justify your sermons...
Forget the mainstream. The problem are not a handful of terrorists but the millions in the mainstream who are so easily manipulated by them. If the masses had no desire to kill, the actions of a few terrorists would only motivate people to increase their efforts for peace. There is no mainstream their is only the herd heading for the culling.
Stop trying to change everybody else. It is impossible to change someone else. But it is only almost impossible to change yourself. Change yourself and you will have changed the world.
The problem are not a handful of terrorists but the millions in the mainstream who are so easily manipulated by them.
Rest of the debate and comments on this thread is just based on establishing supremacy of one’s own theories and thoughts.
Great!!
Demanding punishment of the criminals is not fascism or intolerance...nor is it jingoism...
Can you reason it out with the likes Masud Azhars and convince them to come to mainstream?...if not then what is the point of such idealism?
Excuse me, but I just fail to understand your words. What difference you are talking about?
I just praised the wise words spoken by Ma Enki. And, it does make a difference.. even if it doesn’t appeal to you. :-)
Also,
Demanding punishment of the criminals is not fascism or intolerance...nor is it jingoism
Hey buddy, I am not from any Human Rights Organisation so don’t expect me to bve lenient with the terrorists. I am not at all against punishing the culprits, but I am against the idea of shutting my eyes and ears when someone else tries to come up with his theory.
In our deepest of minds, we may be confident that his theory is totally stupid claims, but then again, even our own theories are bound to attract the same sentiments from others.
Anyway, good you brought up the topic of that Masood Azhar. You know what??
Every time he is involved in a terrorist attack in India, I curse him but not him alone... I also curse the Indian Government of that period who treated Masood as a VIP and escorted him to freedom after that plane hijack incident.
And, if it is today proved that Masood Azhar was behind the attacks, then the blame will also automatically be shared by those politicians who were inefficient to deal with that (plane hijack) situation.
Finally, I don’t give much importance to words like ’idealism’, ’fascism’ and what you call it...’ jingoism’
Again, I don’t expect the world to share my sentiments :-) so the ones who are not comfortable with my words may please excuse me and carry on with their routine activities.
The point I am trying to make is...whenever something happens...along with all the usual outcry another simultaneous stream follows...that is of self condemnation...have we done something wrong to make terrorists angry?...are we being intolerant ? etc etc...
But despite some exceptions India is still arguably one of the most tolerant places in the world as the history would suggest...
That is why I don’t like it when Americans or anyone else come and preach tolerance, spiritualism etc to us...while they have never practiced it themselves...
By ”difference” I meant have we been successful to appease the terrorists all these years by being soft?...(Indian retaliation is still mostly soft compared to any other nation...)...
I sincerely believe we need more aggression in policies (by aggression I don’t mean direct war)..
Who told you that I have not understood your point? :-)
I very well understand what point u are trying to make. And, I AM WITH YOU ON THIS ISSUE. ;-)
Aggression is the key, but our Government is avoiding it. Its high time the Government of India changes its stance.
I endorse your viewpoint.

There were numerous reports in the media of Atta and al-Shehhi going to Shuckum’s Oyster Pub and Seafood Grill, a sports bar in Hollywood, Florida, on September 8, 2001. Atta, al-Shehhi, and a third unidentified man reportedly drank heavily and played the Golden Tee ’97 arcade game there.

A driver for a pair of local escort services told the Herald yesterday that he drove a call girl to the Park Inn in Chestnut Hill on Sept. 9 around 10:30 p.m. where she bedded down with one of the mass murderers. It was her second trip to the terrorist’s room that day.
Well said. Posting two interesting comments that are not only in tune with your sentiments but also place in the dock all those who are too cocksure about hand of Hindu groups.These gentlemen posted their comments on an article called ”Jihad in Mumbai” by Baron Bodissey.

”Have you noticed that in every incident in which Muslims kill or attempt to kill infidels, “no connection with terrorism is involved”? Before the bodies are even covered up and rolled away on the gurneys, the spokesmen grab the microphones to assure the public that they have nothing to worry about. Despite the fact the Americans, Britons, Spaniards, Italians, etc., are killed while their murderers shout “Allahu Akhbar!”, there is “no connection with terrorism”.”

I’m having trouble buying this whole scenario. Are you saying that muslims did this? That’s absurd. As George Bush mentioned, islam is a religion of peace!
And religions of peace don’t kill people. No, this must be the work of Indian Nihilists, or maybe some murderous Buddhists. It can’t be the Religion of Peace. It’s just not possible. Our President(read George Bush) wouldn’t lie to us.

I am about to post an article which is neither written by an Indian nor Pakistani.An article at this hour by an Indian is treated more as a finger-pointing than an attempt to set the records straight!!The article is not bundle of facts but only an attempt to tell that there is no point in providing escape-route to Pakistan.
You are correct that it’s to early to blame Pakistan in absence of concrete facts.But that should not prevent us to view happenings in light of proper analysis.I am no politician and ,therefore,not interested in blame game.But that doesn’t mean I should start viewing moon as sun.
To make typos an issue is work of petty souls.
I think a writer is judged more on the basis of ideas he/she shares with the readers.Style of writing,construction of sentences and typos (if you are hyperactive in the cyber world)are very insignificant things.I mean they are important but not as important as one’s ideas.
Anyway, I have no authority to teach some new tricks to an old dog like you!I am ,at present,more interested in learning than teaching.It would be nothing short of foolhardiness if I start zeroing in on typos while reading the works of likes of Michael.....
Lastly, my articles and comments are full of typos.I just can’t avoid them.
And yes, I am not interested in mud-slinging either.It’s not in my blood.Facts.I have not only great liking for facts but also for sound interpretations.Interpretations are more important than facts.
Lot of people know the stories of the epics because they are interesting stories with moral lessons which can be used even without considering the religious aspect...its nothing strange
Is this piece inspired by the fool with the red cap with two dumb lasses whom I just saw on youtube? He was saying the same thing. He went on to say that 9/11 was done by USA themselves & this is done by Indians themselves!....
Please note a few things...
1. Just a wristband which happen to be of a certain color does not negate all the trails of emails & satellite phone calls which are traced back to Pakistan.
2. It might even be a deliberate attempt to create the confusion and point fingers at RSS...even killing Karkare can be the motivated by same ambition (well if you can, I can cook my conspiracy theories too)
3. About taking liquor...I dunno where did you get these info, (well you people always had better info about terrorists)...anyway...that is nothing strange...these are no virtuous people...just a bunch of brainwashed vermins who think they’ll get 72 virgins if they die killing Kafirs...
4. The very fact that in an Indian forum you are still allowed to post such things and people are still trying to reason it out, shows which one is a democratic country.
5. Please stop living in denial....Pakistan doesn’t need to be worried of India or US...you biggest enemies are your own people...
I am happy that you decided to apprise him( Mr. Abid) of the bare facts related with scriptures.I didn’t do so because that was not in tune with the ongoing discussion.
Pakistan ,if it did not mend its ways,is bound to implode due to its own weight.
Pakistan to-day is a functioning anarchy
and educated people like you need to introspect why it is so. Faster you do this the better is - otherwise there will be no Pakistan tomorrow. Religious fanatics in your country have already started threatening openly to take over reins of power in Pakistan. This is not a wake-up call it is an alarm bell
ringing loud and clear. The ”thread” that you talk about on the wrist of the terrorist is the thread that will soon become a noose round your neck - unless you open your eyes and accept the reality of Pakistan’s ( not necessarily Pakistan Govt) involvement in Mumbai attack.
I am in some kind of hibernation...but couldn’t resist it this time...it had to be retaliated...
If we do so we are equal to our politicians.
ur ”queries” & ”theories” have all been dissected before...read previous comments...
don’t try to twist facts....D’souza just said some of the cops din’t fire...that is nothing unusual considering those people are ill equipped for such sudden and intense attacks...
And it doesn’t remove all those satellite phone calls traced back to Pakistani servers...stop being ignorat...Pakistan is ruining itself in pursuit of ruining India...
Anyway don’t bother about other economies...save your GM if you can or think about Lehman guys who are out of the job already...
seeing some professional indian preachers out there you think all indians dwell in the world of unearthy spiritualism? and won’t retaliate when attacked?....
and anyway talk was not about a war with Pakistan ....it was wiping out terrorist bases out there...its apalling and irritating to to see totally detached people with limited knowledge use the phrases like ”hindu fundamentalism”....why you are still clueless about islamic fundamentalism even after 9/11 screwings...
And about GM...don’t think it can survive only with military orders...it has lost its passenger markets...
gimme a break from those conspiracy theories...only if you apply a bit of mind u’ll find 20 loopholes in those stories...
And anyway you once again showed you ignorance when you mentioned Iraq war...Iraq war is being fought on a totally different ground and most of the world oppose it....the direct aftermath of 9/11 was the attack was Afghanistan...and no one directly opposed it...
if u r so righteous, save the American first...anyway if you think all Indian are Gandhians you are making a mistake...it’s unfortunate that when people are being killed on the street you are taking it as an opportunity to show off your non existent wisdom...
passivity, tolerance, resilience under repeated attacks in nothing but cowardice...Thankfully US din’t show cowardice after 9/11....neither should anyone else...
1.come out from your illusion...u created them...but no longer own them...u created a Frankenstein...and got screwed in the process...now u hav to fight back...Michael Moore is also a propagandist...u can’t place 100% faith on him...just making money by sensationalizing it...
2. So where is the enlightened being who ”escaped the karmic cycle” and was out there to save people’s soul? Why sudden statements like ”We bought and paid for islamic fundamentalists. We own them. They fight for US. ”...
you are just a hypocrite who by any means wants to show off how intellectual he is...but with conflicting remarks you have only made it clear who is at fault...
why don’t you tell the Pakis to be patient?...don’t distort spiritualism...
go back to your ”future”...u might find some takers...or better would be to start writing sci fi for Hollywood movies...
The problem are not a handful of terrorists but the millions in the mainstream who are so easily manipulated by them.
Rest of the debate and comments on this thread is just based on establishing supremacy of one’s own theories and thoughts.
Great!!
Demanding punishment of the criminals is not fascism or intolerance...nor is it jingoism...
Can you reason it out with the likes Masud Azhars and convince them to come to mainstream?...if not then what is the point of such idealism?
Excuse me, but I just fail to understand your words. What difference you are talking about?
I just praised the wise words spoken by Ma Enki. And, it does make a difference.. even if it doesn’t appeal to you. :-)
Also,
Demanding punishment of the criminals is not fascism or intolerance...nor is it jingoism
Hey buddy, I am not from any Human Rights Organisation so don’t expect me to bve lenient with the terrorists. I am not at all against punishing the culprits, but I am against the idea of shutting my eyes and ears when someone else tries to come up with his theory.
In our deepest of minds, we may be confident that his theory is totally stupid claims, but then again, even our own theories are bound to attract the same sentiments from others.
Anyway, good you brought up the topic of that Masood Azhar. You know what??
Every time he is involved in a terrorist attack in India, I curse him but not him alone... I also curse the Indian Government of that period who treated Masood as a VIP and escorted him to freedom after that plane hijack incident.
And, if it is today proved that Masood Azhar was behind the attacks, then the blame will also automatically be shared by those politicians who were inefficient to deal with that (plane hijack) situation.
Finally, I don’t give much importance to words like ’idealism’, ’fascism’ and what you call it...’ jingoism’
Again, I don’t expect the world to share my sentiments :-) so the ones who are not comfortable with my words may please excuse me and carry on with their routine activities.
The point I am trying to make is...whenever something happens...along with all the usual outcry another simultaneous stream follows...that is of self condemnation...have we done something wrong to make terrorists angry?...are we being intolerant ? etc etc...
But despite some exceptions India is still arguably one of the most tolerant places in the world as the history would suggest...
That is why I don’t like it when Americans or anyone else come and preach tolerance, spiritualism etc to us...while they have never practiced it themselves...
By ”difference” I meant have we been successful to appease the terrorists all these years by being soft?...(Indian retaliation is still mostly soft compared to any other nation...)...
I sincerely believe we need more aggression in policies (by aggression I don’t mean direct war)..
Who told you that I have not understood your point? :-)
I very well understand what point u are trying to make. And, I AM WITH YOU ON THIS ISSUE. ;-)
Aggression is the key, but our Government is avoiding it. Its high time the Government of India changes its stance.
not just the statement...but the reasons for making them...
and also...this thread was basically about Mumbai attacks...put your theories about that too...(not the ones given by the artcile writer....those have already been nullified by many)
and you don’t have to invoke Hitler to justify your sermons...
Global Opinions (30)
So I am sure it isn’t a hindu group such as the Sangh Parivar, which is a low tech operation that brings it’s terror using the traditional weapons of the Ramayana, spears and swords.
How can you be so stupid to tell Indians that this attack was carried out by Hindus.The investigations have not been completed yet.This is as stupid as saying that the ISI is behind it.Lets wait and see how the Indian government goes about it’s own investigation...and I hope ISI and some other countries are also associated with it so everything is above board.
BJP and RSS might be behind this, as everyone knows why they came to power after demolishing a religious place.
I will open my eyes, but don`t you think its a bit strange your media is so silent about this.
Your media is controlled by the government are will tell what India govt. wants to say.
Have you not heard of atrocities against Christians by Hindus, raping of nuns. ALl those were followers of Hanumna. Hanumna is a lord who is worshiped by Hindus.
Some terrorists were speaking in Marathi as well. Isn’t this enough to tell that they were Hindus.
Those blasts weren’t carries out by traditional weapons, but using RDX.
Hindu militants are getting well funded these days.
Shutting once eyes at evidence or taking note of it.
Wrist band is a fashion accessory..they come in all colors and size....So you call it an evidence? Nothing but Silly!
Unless you are one of them who planned to mislead the media by tying it!
Perhaps the arrests of Indian army officers involved in bombings have panicked the Indian establishment? Many analysts believe it is a cover up and inside job because there are so many gaps in the reports.
India does not need external enemies as long as racist Hindu Fundamentalists are deeply penetrated in the establishment. BJP resent the fact that current ruling Congress party is headed by an Italian Sonia Gandhi. Well Congress Party was formed by British A.W Hume. Some times it is easy to occupy a country but it is very hard to subsist that occupation be it Kashmir or Palestine?
The racist ideology of Hindu Supremacist’s and their love affair with Israel and her polices, would bring sleepless nights and terrifying days for the Indians as common Israelis are feelings for long times and Americans have been feeling since 9/11?
Can you provide us any link, pictures of that? Or should be only go by your word.
I see from the comments that temperatures are running high, and that accusations and counter-accusations are being thrown around with no proof anywhere, whatsoever.
I am not an Indian or a Pakistani, but I can very well understand why tempers are flaring (I’m an Anglo-Saxon who saw 9/11).
It’s 10:55 Paris time and I have just visited 12 press agencies and news sources in Europe, America and, more importantly, on the Indian sub-continent.
There is nothing at all, nothing, anywhere, that would prove, or disprove, the implication of Pakistan, Indians, Muslims or Hindus in Mumbai.
(Unless someone has information that I don’t).
There seems to be mounting evidence that this attack was carried out from Pakistan, but, and it’s a very big but, even if this is PROVEN to be true, someone would still need to PROVE that the Pakistani government helped plan it or even knew about it.
Those in India will understand, because they were evidently not able to prevent the attack, which demonstrates that a government cannot know everything in that part of the world. The Americans are doing better, sure, but do you know the extent of the intelligence capability they have developed since 9/11?
Intelligence resources in India and Pakistan are cosiderably lower, which leads me to think that it remains entirely possible to attack an Indian city, unfortunately, and that it is also possible to train terrorists in Pakistan, all without their governments being able to stop it.
Sad, but true.
I just think we should wait until the Indians show the proof they claim to have.
Until then, it’s all conjecture..
(My take?
Operation planned in Pakistan, by Pakistanis. But NOT with the government’s knowledge. This is, of course, only my impression, gained from the information I have been able to read, and it is NOT a statement of fact.......)
Thank you.
But I know the Ramayana, as many Muslims do, better than most Hindus know the Quaran. This along with most Hindu literature exists because Muslim kings, liking good yarns had them translated and carried these stories through the Arab world and Europe. It can be argued that most Hindu stories were word of mouth until they were first written down under the patronage of Muslims.
I know that this is not in context to the discussion, but I think credit should be given where it is due. And also as a peace offering and condolence to Indians and Hindus on board.
I will go to the article in half-an-hour (coupla things to do), particularly if you think it has something better to express than mud-slinging.
LOL!! GIMME FACTS!!
Particularly as, being from the West, I don’t, and cannot, have a ”grass-roots gut-feeling” about it all.
I’ll go wherever the facts take me....
Read you later and thanks....
LOL!! I thought it was funny!! Sort of a Jewish twist!!!
If I wrote your language half as well as you write mine....
And, as you must be aware, I do NOT check my comments for typos.
Not important, and, as I said, sometimes funny....
You believe that wearing fancy coloured bands makes a guy Hindu.Ridiculous. Then every guy who wears a beard without a moustache should be a Muslim..eh!This is not even an article worth publishing.
Do you expect your Pakistani terrorists to enter India with their customary white ankle-high pyjama and kurta with the cap?
And do you think you can concoct a story by making people believe what the Pakistani terrorists did to camouflage their identity like keeping liquor bottles and fake id cards in their bags?
Try to find answers to the list of calls made by these terrorists to Pakistan.Also try to answer the confessions of the terrorist made to the FBI team from US.He is spilling the beans out to the whole world with evidence and those are being verified one by one..
As for the auto industry, the debate going on in Washington DC is a charade for public consumption. Who do you think is going to make american military vehicles and tanks? Will the US contract this to Japan? Give me a break.
You sound very passionate. But also very blinded by what hindus call maya or things of this world. Don’t your spiritual teachers tell you everything in this world is fake and unreal. The hindu fundamentalist believe they are going to start a war to finally wipe Pakistan off the map. After a terrible nuclear war it will become obvious to the survivors that peace and harmony is a better solution.
I don’t expect to change your mind or anyone else’s. Like Arjuna you are fated to kill your uncles and cousins, the Pakistani’s, in the coming war. You cannot change your fate. Nor is the tide of history going to suddenly reverse.
I personally have escaped the karmic cycle. So your petty hates and economics mean nothing to me. But to save my own soul it is my duty to tell those who have ears to listen why things are happening and what will happen in the future.
Forget the mainstream. The problem are not a handful of terrorists but the millions in the mainstream who are so easily manipulated by them. If the masses had no desire to kill, the actions of a few terrorists would only motivate people to increase their efforts for peace. There is no mainstream their is only the herd heading for the culling.
Stop trying to change everybody else. It is impossible to change someone else. But it is only almost impossible to change yourself. Change yourself and you will have changed the world.
You don’t understand where I’m coming from because I come from the future ... from a post-modernist perspective. Western Philosophy did not end with Sartre as you may have been taught.
But I’m not against you. Please, take this gun and slay your enemies. If they’re muslims, or christians or whom ever you hate. And go with God and may they protect you.
You mentioned that ”911 coincidences” and other documentaries of their ilk have ”20 loopholes”. I am very interested in learning about these ”loopholes”. Please tell me where I can find an intelligent refutation of these theories.
P.S. And not the Report of the 911 Commission. This official US Government document is sorely incomplete and, by it’s own obfuscation discredits itself.
Thank you for your assistance.
P.S. Why are you giving the Nazi salute on your picture?
