Wha! Sabhash! I never had seen people betraying their sub conscious, every
bit of it.  I must congratulate the brand idea of quoting The Pioneer
report, what an Idea Serjee!! I doubt the "venom that spewed" ("interactive
session" where venom was spewed on the

Government's counter-terrorism- Pioneer 7th Nov) went into the eyes of
reporter that might have made him myopic; of course Mr. Geelani knew he is
from Pioneer! No wonder there is any praises on the highly dignified manner
in which a civilized ABVP activist greeted Geelani with his spit. Well, was
it a purification attempt? Then, I convey my sympathy to the reporter; he
missed the bull's eye by a wide margin. He was witnessing to the
sanskritization and didn't even mention a word. Certainly, ABVP must write a
strong letter condemning this act to the erstwhile editor. In that case you
don't know the address please post it to BJP Headquarters, after all
Chandanda is their Rajya Sabha MP.



A note to the Gentleman who posted it in the readers list, after taking
public interest into consideration. Fire your newspaper boy who didn't
deliver you any other paper yesterday; your cable operator who didn't let
you watch any news; possible sue Google who screened all the other reports
on vandalism in DU.



Why should Afzal Guru be hanged? The court said so! Mind you the court did
so to satisfy the collective conscious of Indian Community, then for a
moment I thought I am a Pakistani. Nevertheless we shall continue—what did
court say about SAR Geelani? — He is innocent— who cares— who asked the
court to say so? WE THE LAST INDIANS (Read members of the "nationalist
organization") think rather insist, a person once accused for Terrorism will
remain a terrorist. Oops! What am I saying? How can that be true about a
sadhvi? What about the brave soldiers who killed terrorist (Pardon me, I got
to spit out, actually terrorists?) who have now confused about their
involvement in Malegaon.



Let me ask the evergreen experts on almost everything under sky from
medicine (until they pointed out that even if a policemen is shot at by a
terrorist right at the front, injury would only be in the backside ) to
security (Breaking News: Blast in Malegaon, in the same breath, Indian
Mujahudin involved). *Doctors,* am I mistaken when I say Bajrang Dal is
involved in terrorist activity? *Doctors,* what should I say when a Kashmiri
ask, we been telling, army has fundamentalist who commit Human right abuse
and bring bad name to that institution, now what? *Doctors, *Is that okay if
I call an Indian, that too from 'the integral part of the country' a
terrorist when is been acquitted?


                  (*To be continued…………*)
