It is interesting to see the huge flood of messages in this list after the comment on the police action. There is no doubt that people are dying in larger numbers due to non-terror related circumstances but these can be prevented if the individual is more educated about the dangers lurking, like hanging outside a train, finding practical means to pay back a farm loan, avoiding un-clean environments to fight diseases.
Hmmm. I think you have never been to a drought and starvation hit district.... But then that is another story altogether.
Neglect of backward areas is different from a terror strike.
Thats where the delivery boys come from. In the short term screwing the sponsoring organisation is ok. But if u dont get rid of the economic compulsion of marginalised people to participate in terror groups, new terror groups will replace the ones dismantled. We cant to do much about our neighbours economies but we can focus on the foibles of our policy makers
Just like the underworld, terrorism is an underground movement that has moved on from its original revolutionary ideology. There will always be a group of people who want to live life on the edge, where power and wealth beckons them. Its pure business. Just as we have patriotic criminals who want to use the legitimate route to gain absolute power, there are others who will take to crime to achieve the same.
