No Indian should be driven out of their homes -- anywhere in India --thats what
I say . They should remain even if they have to fight for it.
U still trumpet that Indian army killed all these people --thats the lie.

And my question again:
NOW that you know, what would you propose to these Hindi speaking victims?
Or to those who will be killed either as ULFAs or SUSPECTED ULFAs ?
STAY THE COURSE?

** Really? What planet have you been in Umesh?
ULFA has proved itself to be terrorists by killing innocents again. Hasn't
it? Why equate killing of laborers by ULFa to killing of ULFA by Indian army?
** OK, I will abandon my sense of reasoning for a moment and go along with
your view that ULFA or suspected ULFA slaughter by Indian army goons is a more
noble pursuit or at least an efficacious one.
If so, it should have proven beneficial and ended the carnage by now. It has
been a quarter century now , hasn't it? But has it?
If not, what seems to be the problem? And how do you, a Harvard trained
intellectual licensed to lecture the world, plan to bring it to an end? I spoke
to someone in Assam an hour back and I hear the killing goes on. I asked how
come the army, which is all over the place, can't stop it? I was told that the
army cannot be everywhere, that they cannot stop what goes on in the backwoods
of Assam.
Not that I did not know the answer. I was just curious about how the
prevailing wisdom that Manoj shared earlier has infected the reasoning ability
of otherwise able people.
If YOU did not know the answer earlier ( can't hold it against you -- you too
being a victim of the desi-mindset affliction); NOW that you know, what would
you propose to these Hindi speaking victims?
Or to those who will be killed either as ULFAs or SUSPECTED ULFAs ?
STAY THE COURSE?
And call B'deshis PIGS, the Assamese SAVAGES and go offer some Pujas to the
gods to make ULFA disappear?

Let us examine this bit of wisdom, which seems to have its origins in the
hallowed editorial chambers of the Sentinel:
*** First off, regardless of MOTIVES, the killings are horrible
tragedies, that none of us can or should condone, support,
promote or abet; directly or indirectly, overtly or tacitly.
*** If indeed killing of Hindi-speaking laborers/traders/political
leaders ( they are NOT all laborers, if newspaper reports are to be
believed) is to create jobs for illegal B'deshi immigrants, like
these
'analysts' tell us ; should it not raise a red-flag in the minds
of Assam's protectors and 'mai-baap' in Delhi?
*** Has Delhi NOT heard, from the late 1970s , about Assam's
discontent
with unabated B'deshi migration to the state and to the region, which
actually triggered the ULFA movement, even though it is rooted in
much more?
*** If that was not enough, why have Assam's protectors NOT done
anything about it, even at this late date, even after brilliant
intellects who have finally seen through the ULFA ploy of turning
Assam over to B'desh, point it out in The Sentinel, The Statesman,
The Telegraph ,The ToI? Never mind the plaintive outpourings of
assamnetters and their NRI sympathizers and admirers.
Is India NOT worried about losing Assam's wealth to the hordes of
the lungi menace and B'Desh? After-all non-Assamese Indians own
most of Assam , don't they? Don't India's strategic planners and
steel-trap minded military generals see this huge risk to India's
'national security'?
Are they blind, are they stupid, are they THAT inept? Are they SOOO
impotent? Are they sooo clueless that they cannot connect these
NOT-subtle dots, but glaring beacons?
Well? What gives?
Perhaps they indeed are blind, stupid, inept ,clueless and abjectly impotent
to do anything about it. Heavens know we see daily examples of that all over
the sub-continent, don't we? It is entirely possible that these morons who
supposedly govern India and 'protect' ( heh-heh!) Assam are worse than Keystone
Cops.
*** If so, WHY can't our brilliant netters see thru that when they
wail
on the internet like a bunch of cry-babies or go about parroting
simple-minded anal-yses by a clueless and careless media ? What is
their excuse? Are they too clones of their nincompoop keepers and
saviors?
The truth, unfortunately, is a whole lot more complicated.
BUT, even if it were not; EVEN if parroting of these simple-minded anal-yses
really are what it is all about; would it not make sense for those who are
dismayed by these developments to RAISE their voices to end the carnage?
Carnage not merely of Hindi speakers, but of ULFA who are Oxomiya youth - our
own; of Indian soldiers ( they too are human, aren't they?) and innocent
bystanders -- regardless of the labels we place so conveniently to rob them of
their humanity?
I like to think, that all these fine people whose outrage erupts only when
such bloodshed makes the headlines, are not asleep the rest of the time.
So WHY do they AID and ABET this quarter century old carnage, albeit
indirectly, by remaining silent or in fact opposing a negotiated political
settlement between the Indian Govt. and ULFA ? Why don't they urge their
keepers and saviors to end it, once and for all?
I hope our friends will take a moment to reflect on that. I like to think
they are more than able to.
