   Are you interested in taking cure to symptoms or look for eliminating
   the cause?? When Hindus have learned to live harmoniously with
   other minorities, parsis, jains, christians etc. in India, why should
   you think they will have problems living with only muslims? Why don't 
   muslims well-behave like other sections and let us live peace-fully??
   How long would you like to live bootlicking other hypocrites, for
   the sake of pseudo-secularism? If you don't d(c)are to oppose, why
   hate others who do??? When you refer to VHP/RSS combine as criminals,
   you are touching more than 4millions (of whom many are intellectuals)
   and which started way back in 1925 as a NATIONALISTic(don't mistake
   it for fundamentalistic) movement and still is so(I think we still
   are victims and need freedom from this partisan politics). Don't you
   see central govt., and secession-minded Imam of Jama Masjid who keep
   most of muslims in ignorant, illiterate, illogical state are the cause
   of these unfortunate incidents?? What is so beautiful when Imam of
   Jama Masjid taking advices of Iran, Pakistan...and catalysing the 
   emotions of poor-muslims, with utter disregard to Indian constitution(
   although, I too feel it's time we should rewrite this). Where minority
   Parsis have succeeded in India, why can't muslims (I mean misguided 
   souls-unfortunately these are more in that section)?

   It's outrageous to call for the invocation of blind law(we have seen,
   in the past, we would like to invoke law whenever we are at fault),
   in this instance, and say muslims are not responsible. 
   
   It's unfortunate things have turned this way (because of congie), but
   we should strongly express our support for RSS at this moment and
   extra-strongly rebute the center's behavior.

   Satya, please support your sentences when you say somethings like
   'muslims are not responsible, and implicate nationalistic organizations'

   It's easy to find faults, but let's learn from history.
