Some thoughts... a lil' long, but do read it. This letter has been

 

written by an Indian who is still an Indian at heart, hoping to make other

 

Indians and non Indians understand 'us' better.

 

 

I remember in March 1993, when the skyline of Bombay was almost blown

 

off with a series of bomb blast...bombs went off at the Bombay Stock Exchange

 

building, Air India building, Masjid Bunder, a bus near Passport Office,

 

a building near Poonam Chambers, Plaza cinema hall at Dadar, Centaur Hotel

 

Juhu and Sea Rock Hotel at Bandra ... to name a few. Thousands lost

 

their lives, thousand others were wounded and the poor became poorer still. We

 

all knew who had done it but were asked by the 'powerful' nations to restrain

 

ourselves and not come to conclusions so fast. To rise above the situation

 

and carry on the teachings of our great leaders of the past like

 

Gandhiji.

 

 

And so, terrorist likes Dawood and Tiger Memon were allowed to escape to

 

Pakistan and flourish. The world carried on and no one bothered.

 

 

 

A few years later Pakistan once again was at war with us. The Kargil War

 

will be remembered for many years by those Indians who lived with the fear

 

of not knowing what will happen next. Horror stories of any war are exactly

 

what it says it is... horrifying! Once again we had great countries like the US telling us to work for peace and that quick fix solutions or an eye for an eye is not the right answer. When documents were produced stating that France continues to sell arms to Pakistan , no embargo, no sanctions but "good advise' was given. We were reminded that we were the world's

 

largest Democracy and hence should be the big sister to a nation who in fact is

 

a day older than us!

 

December 1999, Christmas time, the whole world was celebrating the end

 

of the century and the beginning to a new millennium, but many Indians were

 

watching the news on television for any news on those near and dear ones

 

who were hijacked and suffering in the "cold' land of Khandahar. No help

 

from any nation.... The world has no solutions for India! India once again fends for herself. She cries out to put a stop to terrorism that is rampantly increasing in neighboring Pakistan but what

 

did the great nations profess... show them the other cheek like Jesus Christ

 

told us to do!

 

When, out of desperation, India carried out the Pokhran II nuclear test,

 

the whole world condemned us, US sanctions were the first to be implemented.

 

Pakistan was given as much support as required. India was firmly told to

 

cool down!

 

India has time and again spoken up for terrorism. The same country which

 

has for centuries been far ahead of the western world in its way of thinking

 

..... almost like a mother who bears all the sufferings and yet is the

 

first to forget and forgive....

 

 

Isn't it ironical that the big bully who did not think twice before the

 

Pearl Habour bombing, raced to wipe out Vietnam, eagerly instigated the

 

Palestines, time and again reminded their next generation that they

 

should fight for justice turns face about when it comes to their country?

 

America, the country who finds it difficult to swallow the same bitter

 

pill,

the DEVELOPED NATION who had no clue of what was going to happen to them

 

on a Tuesday morning, who had no inkling of events to unfold ... the same country who has all

 

along just given us lip service got full support from India in its time

 

of need , a country who has helped the US grow by letting the cream de la

 

cream work in their country... India stood by a nation in its time of need.

 

India, you are a great country. You are indeed sare jaha se acha.

 

 

 

 

 

I am proud to be an Indian. Are You? YOU SHOULD BE
