Journalists Murdered in Philippines,total 57 people massacred!

It is horrible!! 57 people massacred and the government is still slowly taking up the issue. Justice delayed is justice denied...Crime is a crime no matter how big a clan you come from. Crime is a crime, no matter the geography of the happenstance, weather it is in Afgahnistan or Iraq or say here it is Philippines..the family of those deceased must be given justice....

Associated Press reported:

The heir of a powerful clan was charged Tuesday in connection with the Philippines' worst political massacre — an ambush in which 57 people, more than half journalists, were slaughtered.

Three witnesses, who escaped because their car was at the tail end of the election convoy that was attacked in a southern province Nov. 23 , said they saw Andal Ampatuan Jr. and about 100 gunmen, including police officers, stopping the cars, prosecutor Al Calica told The Associated Press.

Hours later, troops found bullet-riddled and hacked-up bodies near the highway sprawled in the grass and hastily buried with a backhoe in three mass grave.

 While reports in Local/News world said:

Most or all of the 22 women among the at least 57 people massacred Monday in the southern Philippines were sexually mutilated.

"It was horrible. It was not done to just one," the justice secretary, Agnes Devanadera, said on national television. "It was done to practically all the women."

Why is the world still so quite about it?
 

Where angels fear to treat?Bhopal gas tragedy revisted..

Its been 25 years. The Union Carbide disaster in Bhopal, Bhopal disaster or Bhopal gas tragedy claimed at least 40,000 lives in a matter of days, while 390 tonnes of toxic chemical still lies abandoned at the plant.

Every year on December 3,we piously rememer those dead, while the families of the victims still fight for justice. The newspapers and tv channels come-out with stories are stories blaming the government, Union Carbide and who-else not...

There are civil and criminal cases pending in United States(Manhattan) and even in Indian courts.Justice but being ever done to those-affected people is a high improbability.

This excerpt from an article by Indra Sinha in HT, presents a quintessential picture what Bhopal is today:

"Bhopal is not a normal place. It is deeply, intimately, poisoned. Twenty-five years after the catastrophic gas disaster, Union Carbide’s toxins still flow in the soil, in the water, in the wells, in people’s blood, in wombs and breast milk and in the hearts of local politicians. Go and see for yourself. Once you’ve arrived in Bhopal, take an auto-rickshaw to any one of Annu Nagar, Blue Moon Colony, Nawab Colony, Atal-Ayub Nagar, Oriya Basti, Garib Nagar, Kainchi Chola. You’ll soon notice that an awful lot of children seem in some way damaged."

Criminals as Politicians: The drag to hell

                                                                        Cartoon

In a nation of over 1.17 billion people and still counting, finding a lecherous and hideous criminal is a huge task. And then voting and electing him as our representatives even bigger.

But we faithfully have been doing it, after all what choice does the naive citizens have?

We don't understand how these criminal politicians have been eating up the very arteries of the country, while the judiciary and the executive have been simply sucking up to them...

Just for a better understanding of the citizens of our country, we conducted a complete full-scale research where we evaluated the microeconomic measures such as the value of gifts received and the consumption-income gap of law, order, and administrative officials, while a co-relation in the subjective perception-of the defunct brain indices of citizens was weighed against the quantitative estimates of bribery taken by the criminal politicians.
 
Using a regression discontinuity design, we are now clearly able to say that a criminal politician would further weaken the governance, while corruption becomes an accepted practice.

f(m �� ^m) �� b + b +  (m �� ^m)T = (f +  T)(m �� ^m

f(m �� ^m) �� b =
b +  (m �� ^m)T. By (2), this implies that:

b = 1/2 (f ��  T)m

Hence, b = 0

As per the calculations, the genius in you can now clearly see that Criminal politicians should not be elected.


India Shining, oh! really!
 
As per Election Commission estimates, 1,500 candidates in the 1996 parliamentary election had criminal records and 40 of them got elected to the 11th Lok Sabha.

In the state legislatures, out of the 4,072 sitting members of the legislative assembly in all the states, more than 700 have criminal records.

The 14th Lok Sabha (the lower house of the parliament of India) has 125 members with criminal background. The Lok Sabha has a total of 545 members, including the Speaker

By criminal background we mean, serious charges of murder, rape, kidnapping and extortion.

Maoists in India! Its the mute,screaming!

                                              http://www.culturemagazine.ca/joyentsite/images/Scraps/india-1.jpg

Is fighting for you rights, terrorism? How long should an oppressed submit himself to the debasing life, which promises him nothing but pain and hunger?If its Maoism now in Orissa, in the 70's it was Naxal Bari in W Bengal and even then it were "a pile of bones and some flesh" whose self-respect suddenly woke up.

Years of humiliation and hungers makes these--for want of a word--lets call them--DALIT----immune to the lowly treatment. However, then a time comes when the Dalit mind tells him that he can no bear the shame, the humiliation, for a day's food and then all that it sees is RED...

Who are the Maoists? They are just people and all that they want like any of us is food, cloth and shelter--And some respect. Is it too much to ask for? For a city-bred lad, hunger and starvation are just mere words that hold no real meaning.

What sparked naxalbari in W Bengal? According a committee that investigated the tribal unrest titled- The Causes and Nature of Current Agrarian Tensions: "The basic cause of unrest, namely, the defective implementation of laws enacted to protect the interests of the tribals. While further the report suggested: "unless this is attended to, it would not be possible to win the confidence of the tribals whose leadership has been taken over by the extremists."

Please Note: The term extremist is still being used by the Indian officials to describe the Naxalites, or any one resorting to armed resistance against the Indian government.

In short, it is not a Chinese conspiracy or some foreign funded-terror campaign meant to demoralise the country's morale, Maoism or any ism would always rise up in arms, when people are being denied there rights. Its people just like you and me, who want to be heard?

Are you listening?

Karnataka Lawyers take on Dinakaran.Beat up TV Cameraman.Lawfully indeed!

Just as the Yeddyculous and Reddyculous political drama got over, the Karnataka lawyers turned to their favorite law books this time to beat up a TV cameraman, while the locked-up judges called out to the rowdy LAW-IRES to open the door.

The reason was Dinakaran. The unruly lawyers chanted slogans as the obviously "hurt" justice struggled his way to reach the caring arms of family, who were leisurely waiting for his return.

However, way home was not that easy for the chief justice. “What sin have I committed? Why are you protesting against me? Allow me to do my duty. The court cannot tolerate such acts,” a hurt Dinakaran asked the protesting LAW-yers.

Rejecting Dinakaran’s plea, the lawyers continued to shout “Resign chief justice” and “Down, down Dinakaran” inside and outside the courtroom and prevented the proceedings.

Throwing away all regards to law and decorum, the lawyers displayed their best behaviour by finally beating the cameraman of an english TV channel. A comment that I heard: "Its Sad, he(cameraman) can't even file a case of assault!"

Indeed when lawyers turn breakers, the entire democracy and justice system gets questioned. Are lawyers above law?Would judiciary as well be an impotent witness to this wanton behaviour?

Dead and Gone. But your email lives on...

    Ever wondered what will you leave behind once you have happily been stuck into that slimy grave, covered with mud and endowed with a rich epitaph? No, I am not talking about riches, wealth or not even those brutish children of yours, I are talking about your email. Yes, as now that you are dead the possibilities are your entire family would be able to access your mail.

    So next you time you leave office, make sure, you have deleted all that porn and text-sex messages. Certainly, death doesn't knock when it comes calling.

   However, if you are a yahoo user, you can still be at peace, as they still are a wee-bit outdated in their perspective and do not allow any sentiments, otherwise it has to be stated in your death will, to which they will happily oblige.

    Hotmail and Gmail, on the other hand, being the pioneers would allow the closest of the kin to access your email. All married men, delete all controversy from your mail box, you know women dig deep..!!

    While the ever sweetfaced FACEBOOK has new feature called memorialisation that lets the family of deceased users keep their profile page online as a virtual tribute. Myspace in league too and would happily oblige, now that you are dead and gone...

do whatever you want, but always keep it clean. Your mailbox.I mean.

Flu Hits The Swine, Modi Dead. Its worth the r(h)umour.

Obituary notes are pouring in from all corners of the country, the great leader- the man who singlehandedly devoured everything anti-hindu, fell victim to an innocent-looking swine.

Doctors have confirmed it, that the swine that was there in Modi has been neutralised and would henceforth harm nobody. Muthalik stood witness to the report.

However, sadly for the blood hungry power-mongers, Modi in his will has asked the State to donate all his money to the victims of Gujrat riots- in mean time, Bal Thackery too was seen rushing to his lawyer for a new will.

The India Muslim League leader will fire the pyre up Modi's ass at the funeral, while RSS svamsevaks will clear all the swines in the muslim basti for the fellow brethren.

However, the BJP key leaders decided to stay away from the funeral as doctors have predicted that the swine versus could possibly be looking for a new swine-like soul as the next victim.

The funeral was well staged and per the traditions fitting for a disgusting person, who had such a charming hate-filled smile, that drove the no-pig eating people a run for their lives.

The great leader will be remembered and Gujrat certainly will never be the same again.

Indira Gandhi: A mother, the demon, lron lady....remembered?

The newspapers have been flooding the common folks with some good writeups on how great, Indira was, her acheivements; calling her the Iron lady and what not. Even papers who once played a strong role in curating her as the greatest she-demon of this country, have offered "there respect" to the lady.


May be its just that we don't want to offend the greatest she-demon as she is dead. Or we are just plain sacred of Indira Haunting! Her achievements are long, but strong she was that she didn't even flinch at the thought of having her son killed, she just did it.Children Heed To Thy Parents, They Just Might Kill You.


I watched as the not-so-innocent looking with a show of reverence flocked Shakti Sthal to pay homage to former prime minister Indira Gandhi on her 25th death anniversary Saturday. Known as 'Iron Lady', she ruled the country for 15 years in two stints before being assassinated by her Sikh bodyguards (don't you smell some conspiracy here too).


We know she had it coming after the Blue Star, but it were not the Sikhs alone who hated her, hatred towards Indira was quite universal, in the subtle deep conscious of her party-men and a foreign interest is never out of the ruling. 

Rising as one of the most powerful of Indian women, Indira Gandhi was a favorite daughter, a loved mother, a strong leader...but with power the transform from Iron Lady to the greatest She-Demon was slow...but heartfelt.



But there is truth to the fact that she was loved, respected and adored by millions of Indians and her memory certainly would stay alive, for some it would always be with a bitter tinge of disgust and pure hatred. RIP Indira...

Shoo the encroachers,Why show mercy!

Bangalore, Oct 25, 2009: Twelve-year old Mansoor watched-on alone from a nearby high-roof house, as his home was being demolished by the BBMP. He was born in that house and it’s been there even before his birth, he said.

    But his house along with the other 63 hutments was razed down as "they had encroached the storm water drain."The BBMP official supervising the encroachment said, "It was also a preventive measure as the area is flood prone and could be of consequence." The measure thus was for their welfare, he added.

   Meanwhile, Mansoor carrying his 2-year old sister Salma quietly walked on to a vacant BDA land, while his father was seen muttering objection to any official or the onlookers, who cared to listen. They had just lost their home!

    The BBMP drive at the Tannery Road was the phase-one of driving out encroachment from near the SWD's and would be carried on in a phased manner, the BBMP official said. However, one wonders: Where would these families go? Maybe they just will have to find another vacant land to encroach upon -- build a house and live there till it’s broken again. But today, they will sleep in the open.

    A fact that even the young Mansoor knows. “Aaj tho galli may soyeangae,”(today will sleep on the street) the young 12-year old interjected as his mother took the child from his arm and asked him to carry some furniture.

64 houses go down the ‘drain’
