India supports terrorism and has supported in the past. Muslim terrorism is the backlash against it. And yes, Indian mischief in Sri Lanka should not be forgotten.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

You want me to remind you of Thackeray’s comments or Gujarat riots?

Can anyone tell me when India has supported terror?.I am surprised by the ignorance by some posters and the lack of condemnation here.

1. As far as Srilanka goes lets not forget the enormous sacrifices made by the Indian peace keeping force and the sacrifice of Rajiv Gandhi’s life. India failed in spite of loosing thousands of solder’s lives.(I was very young to disapprove of this operation……but its like “becoming wise after the event)..

2. Compared to that what’s the contribution of Pakistan in Bangladesh and Afghanistan (Lets not talk about Pakistan’s support to Taliban and Al-Qida here)!! Lets talk about Bangladesh liberation, where Pakistani Punjabi army terrorized and butchered thousands of innocents Bengali muslims. India went there like in srilanka but with a different result. That is a viable Bangladesh was formed (not on religious basis and its still a democracy).So India’s war against terror have limited results. Contrary to this where Pakistanis are sponsoring, harbouring and masterminding in blowing up moderate Kashmiri leaders and Hindu pundits?

3. Gujarat riots are concerned its an internal turmoil like the ones happening in Pakistan and Iraq-the shia- sunni conflict(like it was perceived in the muslim world that this is a conspiracy by western world,same way many Indians like me feel the Majority-minority-riots in India are the handiwork of Pakistan and its agencies).These types of riots should be condemned and responsible should face the law of the land.

I am not interested or agree of what Thackeray says politically but practically he is just a hard line politician (but he is entitled to his view in a democracy and there onwards it’s a choice).

When people talk about desi unity moment against stereo types of terrorists in US ,only we have to say we are not from Pakistan or explain Pagidi /dasti is different to what arabs wear(I am not saying all Pakistani’s support terror but the question is what are they doing to question their government and Agencies?).well that may be too much to ask in a dictatorship!!

Anil. This is the most sane comment on this thread. As for Aakash bringing in RSS into the picture is playing right into the hands of the perpetrators. Pakistan is known to cultivate hatred against Indians and hindus. The very next day of the blasts Pakistan television was up with reports of RSS and Bajrangdal’s involvement.

Lets hope common sense will prevail!!

Ikram,

There is a reason for no joint inquiry. It is possible that in long run both the governments see a common monster.

Right now, it is only talk (that in itself is quite significant), maybe in future.

The best we can hope is that the victims and affected families are treated with dignity, and care.

And how perfect is this — Indian soldier Kashmir Singh dies saving Pakistani passengers on the Samjhauta Express! Is there a better name for this than Kashmir Singh! I can see the highly allegorical yet oddly boring Deepa Mehta movie already. More seriously, the Dawn has recieved some nice letters from Indians on the tragedy. All this will likely create goodwill. Silver lining, etc.
