Yet another...

Yet again bombs have been detonated in a major Indian city by those who don't like peace and are deluded by a misled sense of being left behind or being denied...honestly I don't know why. Anyhow, immediately following the explosions riot police came in to defuse other devices that were planted and to disperse the mobs that had gathered at the site of the explosion: the biggest mosque in Hyderabad. In the ensuing confusion, violence broke out and the police fired shots into the crowd killing 4 people.

The next day, several Muslim - political organizations and supposedly "activist" groups (mainly Muslim) supported by political parties, staged day long protests in Hyderabad indulging in (the now almost routine Indian practice) of burning effigies of the chief minister of the province. What left me confused and bewildered was the fact that these groups weren't protesting any security lapse in protecting the mosque or anything of that sort. Oh no, they were denouncing in their hundreds, the police firing that led to the death of4 people.

Here we have possibly a terrorist outfit exploding bombs in one of India's global business hubs and the next day we have people coming out to protest, not the insanity that was setting of explosives in a mosque but the ensuing police action. As is now routine I'm left with the inability to understand.

I'm not with him on this...well not completely anyway but Dylan I guess reached his own conclusions when he sang:
People are crazy and times are strange
I'm locked in tight, I'm out of range
I used to care, but things have changed
