tERroRism

Those who blame Muslims for the menace of terrorism should go for a reality check. If we look at the Big Picture, we would rather see that the seed was planted centuries back and now different groups, different countries and different sects have made the demon deadlier. The demon is fast engulfing the world and I shudder to think that soon the planet might hardly find any living being to play under the Sun and dance in full moonlit night.

A lot of things have been written and discussed about terrorism and it has emerged as hottest international issue of late. Countries have vowed blood against perpetrators of the heinous activities and internal security system across the globe has seen considerable enhancement especially after the attacks on Twin Towers in USA, London tube in UK and Mumbai in India. But I genuinely believe tough we are being reactionary and taking lot of measures the first thing which is required is that we go to the roots and try to find exactly how and why did it start.

Before we go back in time and try to examine the causes and reasons behind terrorism, we should always remember that as humans are scaling new heights of development through science and technology we are also falling out to the dangerous effects it poses to humankind at large.

Though I do believe that people of a certain community have been found to be behind most acts of terrorism, it makes no sense to look each of them with suspicious eyes when such heinous deeds are carried out. And all those who are perpetrating the crime must remember- they are not doing `service’ to God as they think, they are killing humanity and bruising their own souls every time they are playing with innocent lives. I think terrorism is the gravest crime a human being can do to others.

Call it Red,
Call it Black
Or call it Muslims’
What name would you give to the color of the blood;
What gender would you define
And what age would we guess
We never know, who has lost what,
A father lost a child
Bestowed upon, after years of prayer.
A woman in white, mourning and lamenting
why did I let him go, no gains regretting.

Call it science
Call it conscience
And call whatever you wish
First, handmade weapons then  guns and cannons
Bio-weapons, WMD and Internet;
Technology making it great.
E-mail attack, Radio broadcast, Video Telecast……
We learn every day some new Jargons.

Call it Sects,
Call it Religion
Blood never recognizes; Who kills and who is killed.
