Add to this the recent outrage in Gaza Strip. Terrorism is an imperative threat to mankind.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiX0z70jj2Cf3zFv-92BsucDezIXJUVpCWScj4sX-WLjAR46yCe1JFj7nz2i90yGOzBjDY9P8BBRPwHrCLLHg4jY3I2lYGGyimUQ4-4OlAdWjy1iS97wBjQTfhUE4imuNIE4efZGw/s1600-h/1.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346027304432167618" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 305px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 287px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiX0z70jj2Cf3zFv-92BsucDezIXJUVpCWScj4sX-WLjAR46yCe1JFj7nz2i90yGOzBjDY9P8BBRPwHrCLLHg4jY3I2lYGGyimUQ4-4OlAdWjy1iS97wBjQTfhUE4imuNIE4efZGw/s320/1.JPG" border="0" /></a>Be it the Hitler’s war on Jews or the American occupation of Palestine, Iraq and Latin ; be it the trouble in Afghanistan and Pakistan or be it ‘War on Terrorism’ itself; be it the Police shooting at innocent children and men in tribal regions of India or the army raping their (tribal) women; be it the attack on our Parliament or be it the bombings of cities like Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Jaipur, Malegaon… the list just ceases to end; all claim innocent lives.<br /><br />We must realize the significance of understanding the logic behind these ‘wars’, or else we are certain to fall prey to the deceptive propaganda laid out to drag us away from the real motives behind such brutal massacres.<br /><br />All these wars are related to each other in some way or the other. Around <span style="color:#990000;">70% of America’s economy is war based / dependent</span>. And so, America is obligated to sell off its bombs and choppers for its development. Clearly the common man doesn’t buy them.<br /><br /><span style="color:#000099;">So whom does America sell its weapons?<br /></span><br />American officials have repeatedly admitted that <span style="color:#990000;">‘America needs enemies to survive, real or virtual…!’</span> And hence the Vietnam, Korea, Bolivia and Gulf Wars.<br /><br />There is one more way by which America has egged on its weapon business. It has perpetually supported various militant organizations like Taliban and Al-Qaida. Where else do these terrorist outfits get their <strong>‘state of the art’ </strong>weapons from?<br /><br />Secondly, although America never admits it, but its economy has been in a terrible recession since long. For the last two decades, the best that it has managed is a growth of around 5%. Its Goliath MNCs have been ravenous for new markets. That’s the reason why America is always hell bent on forcing the third world countries to ‘open’ their economies for American companies (they force one-sided trade). But the third world countries realize the danger of doing that, and hence resist; Cuba and Venezuela being classic examples.<br /><br />Most importantly, America has its eye on the vast oil reserves in the Gulf and in Latin America. And so it has always tried to establish military bases in countries of such strategic importance. But these countries have just not let America prevail.<br /><br />These happen to be the major reasons of America waging or financing endless wars.<br /><br /><span style="color:#cc0000;">Humans cost less than dollars!</span><br /><br />And to do all this, America needs to portray ‘somebody’ as the 'world enemy'. Probably that explains why is it that ‘Not all Terrorists are Muslims, BUT all Muslims are Terrorists’. So in the most sincere efforts to save the world from these ‘traitors’, America wages ‘War on Terror’, <span style="color:#000099;">err ‘War on Muslims’!</span><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizHkjFibR6dWhglv1Y5ldIdN4xJO7LrqtM_wbSylxw5jKtM3we_mM-1CupUD6XTxJcADZInbk0pT09G2lDsEaglWywCZ3STfz20Jj-43CigjG219bJLyZ4yrQfLLynkcRLDlxfOQ/s1600-h/2.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5346027546440543906" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 221px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 197px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizHkjFibR6dWhglv1Y5ldIdN4xJO7LrqtM_wbSylxw5jKtM3we_mM-1CupUD6XTxJcADZInbk0pT09G2lDsEaglWywCZ3STfz20Jj-43CigjG219bJLyZ4yrQfLLynkcRLDlxfOQ/s320/2.JPG" border="0" /></a>The result, countless bomb and war victims in Palestine, Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere continue to roam around homeless, jobless, foodless and without medical attention. I ask you if this happens to you, would you ever protest and hit back to culminate this injustice, or would you choose to die a spineless and shameful death?<br /><br />And when people start fighting for their rights, they are labeled as ‘terrorists’. We have striking examples to this in India as well. Some forces identify Bhagat Singh as a terrorist, don’t they? Film maker Ajay T G and <em>maseeha</em> Dr Binayak Sen is termed a Naxalite.<br /><br />Even our media has joined hands with the swindlers. We read and see all sorts of stories about Muslims engaged in terror activities all over the globe. <span style="color:#990000;">Why don’t we ever see even a glimpse of American atrocities in Africa, Middle East, Latin America and Eastern Asia?</span> It’s easy to guess. The entire Indian media industry ‘buys news’ from the American and European media giants. Would they ever discuss their atrocities?<br /><br />While analyzing the recent attacks in Mumbai, we conveniently put the blame on Pakistan. However, <span style="color:#000099;">we can not afford to disregard the fact that even Pakistan has been subject to similar instances of terrorism</span>. Benazir Bhutto was assassinated. There have been countless suicide bombers creating menace all over in Pakistan. Even their five star hotels have been attacked repeatedly.<br /><br />As a matter of fact, <span style="color:#990000;">terrorism has very little to do with the culprits belonging to a certain religion, country or race</span>. <span style="color:#000099;">Terrorism rises from injustice and the prevalent Economic System</span>. It's always the poor and unemployed who actually take part in such doings. Kasab was a poor worker’s son, not able to find a job! The ruling forces take advantage of this helplessness to ‘mould’ them into the beasts they become.<br /><br />Fellow citizens, in tough times like these, teaming up to understand and wipe out the roots of terrorism seems to be the only rational step towards ensuring a peaceful and ‘livable’ world for us and our future generations. We need to recognize our role in fostering our society.<div class="blogger-post-footer">Human Knowledge Belongs To The World !!!</div>Rushalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07717836524400301931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33799736.post-9989925122806342042009-05-11T12:07:00.018+05:302009-05-12T16:36:30.592+05:30When the Protector becomes the Predator...<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKdnt300HmW5Uz9etvjTvW24Dyh_wkuNjeOpFuEZf_2KhBsuAeChiSq99780MG3CbVkz3Y23qWLpKroLWMoEE82PEWpnH9dhi8rQSyPyXoloC_PCPdPPdH2HKIL36aDnd1wkJUGw/s1600-h/do+you+have+it+in+you.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5334546398607601570" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 224px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhKdnt300HmW5Uz9etvjTvW24Dyh_wkuNjeOpFuEZf_2KhBsuAeChiSq99780MG3CbVkz3Y23qWLpKroLWMoEE82PEWpnH9dhi8rQSyPyXoloC_PCPdPPdH2HKIL36aDnd1wkJUGw/s320/do+you+have+it+in+you.jpg" border="0" /></a> <span style="color:#000000;">The Indian Army </span><span style="color:#000000;">catchphrase "<span style="color:#cc0000;">Do you have it in you?</span>" used to fill my heart with all the josh and patriotism in the world.

For instance, the concept of overtime was simply absent, say, 100 years back, when people were made to work ruthlessly for 16 hours in a day! The 8-hours-work-a-day policy was a direct outcome of the constant struggles led by workers all over the world. And women were an integral part of this struggle too.</div><br /><div>Today we remember and embrace 8th March as a symbol of such struggles. 8th <span style="color:#000099;">March is by no stretch of imagination a day for pampering women, and hence the question of celebrating a Men’s Day is bizarre!</span> We must view these days as significant milestones in the history of mankind. And hence we must take inspiration from the struggles of our ancestors.<br /><br /></div></centre><div class="blogger-post-footer">Human Knowledge Belongs To The World !!!</div>Rushalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07717836524400301931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33799736.post-37251311894733912522009-04-22T11:52:00.001+05:302009-04-22T11:54:58.320+05:30Global WarNingIndia aspires to be a Global Power by 2020. Given the current economic and terrorism crisis, there is no doubt that this vision has been punctured significantly.<br /><br />This aside, there is one more thing which needs immediate attention. And that is the debacle of Global Warming. It is well established that <span style="color:#990000;">Global Warming has struck Australia and America. Struck them hard!</span> These countries happen to be world leaders in Green House Gas (GHG) emissions.<br /><br />Lately, Australia has witnessed its hottest days of all times. <span style="color:#990000;">Hottest months</span>, to say the truth. The recent forest fire, which devastated thousands of families, stands an excellent testimony to this fact.<br /><br />California is another victim. In recent years, it has experienced <span style="color:#006600;">severe desertification of cultivable land</span>, resulting in some of the worst droughts in its history.<br /><br />It is high time we should start taking Global Warming seriously. Experts claim that if the world doesn’t check Carbon and Methane emissions in the next 10 years, <span style="color:#000099;">things will move out of humanities reach!<br /></span><br /><span style="color:#006600;">People, Wake Up!</span><br /><br /><br /></centre><div class="blogger-post-footer">Human Knowledge Belongs To The World !!!</div>Rushalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07717836524400301931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33799736.post-6027322702967976612009-04-22T11:34:00.004+05:302009-04-22T11:40:50.523+05:30Dow ko Bhagao!This refers to ‘Dow Fire – A Mindless Act’, Pune Mirror, TOI, dated 27 July ’08. The setting of Dow Chemicals’ plant on fire was indeed sad. But let’s also try and analyze the true situation.<br /><br />Unlike NCL & UICT, Dow is one of the world’s most notorious chemical companies, <span style="color:#990000;">with an appalling 100 year history of producing world’s most toxic CHEMICAL WEAPONS and pesticides</span>. Thanks to Dow Chemicals, even today, the effects of Agent Orange & Napalm Bomb stand testimony to the havoc created in countries right from Vietnam to Iraq, wherever US has waged wars.<br /><br />Also, there is always added danger from such research units since these try out and test new chemicals, obviously toxic! Think about the pollution of the nearby Indrayini River, which flows all the way up to Pandarpur.<br /><br />Furthermore, if Dow claims not to intoxicate the vicinity, <span style="color:#000099;">why doesn’t it reveal its Project Report, which is a public document by Indian Law!</span><br /><br />Besides, Union Carbide (now taken over by Dow Chemicals), functioned on exactly similar lines and was downright responsible for the Bhopal Gas Tragedy. The question is, <span style="color:#006600;">“Is Pune ready for a Pune Gas Tragedy?”<br /></span><br /><br /></centre><div class="blogger-post-footer">Human Knowledge Belongs To The World !!!</div>Rushalhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07717836524400301931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33799736.post-13490962115771847052009-04-22T11:30:00.001+05:302009-04-22T11:34:23.581+05:30Kill the CartelsWho has not been affected by the current price catastrophe?

And it’s easy to realize now that most of the chaos on roads is created by private vehicles, especially cars.</span></span></p><p><span style="COLOR: rgb(102,0,0)"><span style="color:#000000;">90% of these cars carry just a single person. Roads are a public property and all the people have an equal right to use it. Does a single person require so much space to commute?<br />Building flyovers is just a temporary workaround! And by the time a flyover comes up, it’s already too late as traffic increases way beyond the flyover can handle. Classic examples are the University Road & Hadapsar flyovers.</span></span></p><p><span style="COLOR: rgb(102,0,0)"><span style="color:#000000;">No flyover can sustain traffic for a long time. It simply redirects traffic from one busy square to the next. And, soon we require new flyovers in the vicinity.</span></span></p><p><span style="COLOR: rgb(102,0,0)"><span style="color:#000000;">A smarter solution is improving public transport. <span style="color:#006600;">Why don’t we follow Belgium’s model of FREE & EFFICIENT public transport for all?</span> This will reduce traffic many fold as an army of 30-40 private vehicles will be replaced by a single bus. It’s the best way to reduce traffic jams, pollution & accidents on roads.

They are eating up all job opportunities, leaving a huge number of Maharashtrians unemployed.<br /><br />Are you trying to say that Marathi people are incompetent? I don't think so. North Indians don't think so... By common sense, if North Indians are a mess in Maharashtra, so are Marathis in North India! In that case, lets drive out Marathi people from the North. Is that how you guys want to play politics for your votes?<br /><br />I want to ask another basic question. <span style="color:#990000;"><span style="COLOR: rgb(0,0,153)">Instead of fretting over who gets what jobs in Maharashtra, why don't we talk about the number and kind of jobs available in the state?</span><br /></span><br /><br /><P>Lets say Maharashtra has 100 jobs, out of which North Indians ate up 70, depriving the locals of their livelihood. Let's consider for a while that there were no North Indians in the line up and all 100 jobs went to Marathi people. But still there are 200 jobless Marathis (coz there are 300 Marathis seeking jobs)! Isn't that the actual situation? My question is that <span style="COLOR: rgb(153,51,0)">if there are no North Indians in the state, why are 200 people still unemployed?</P></span><br /><span style="COLOR: rgb(0,102,0)">We must try to look through this propaganda and raise more important questions. <span style="color:#000000;">Questions like, "Why are there so less jobs in Maharashtra?
