Offstumped – Commentary on Indian Politics

?209 Mumbaikars died on 11th July 2006 while over 700 were injured.

42 killed over 50 wounded in Hyderabad in August 2007.

Many more dead and wounded in Malegaon blasts, Samjhauta express blasts and the various blasts in Uttar Pradesh and Delhi?over the last 3 years.

If you were one of those who lost a loved one or experienced terror first hand and have been staring yourself in the mirror every single day wondering if justice would ever be served, the Congress has provided the answer.

If you are still torturing yourself with questions on why these attacks took place under Manmohan Singh’s watch, the Congress wants you to take comfort in the fact that LK Advani’s track record in?preventing terrorist attacks was as bad. You can now sleep tight with the cold comfort that your fate would be no different if the BJP was in power.

If you are still not reconciled to the fact that justice will never be served under the Manmohan Singh UPA Administration, the Congress wants you to take comfort that LK Advani instead of bringing terrorists to justice actually helped release them. That ought to give you peace of mind for even if the Congress brings any terrorist to justice the BJP might just release them, so why bother with justice anyway ?

For the rest of agitated and concerned on when and where the Terrorists might strike next the Congress has a prescription to soothe those anxious nerves. The Congress wants to remind you that it is pointless to fret over the next terror attack for even if the Intelligence Bureau picks an Afzal a few months before a terrorist attack it does little to deter him and his associates from striking. After all despire the best intentions there is only so much the agencies of the state can do to put the fear of god into prospective terrorists.

If all of this is not enough to cure you of your obsessing compulsively on Terrorism remember laughter is the best medicine and who better to administer a dose of it than that inscrutable sycophant, courtier, mercernary and clown Abhishek Singhvi.

It is a different matter that all mass terror attacks took place during the Congress rule and Manmohan Singh despite his insomnia and amnesia finds time to paylip service to Anti-Terrorismm.

Offstumped hangs its head in shame bowing to all those who have suffered from the Congress’ delinquency in dealing with terrorism.
