jiska khoon nahi khaula .....

woh khoon nahi paani hai... so rightly said. If your blood is not boiling after what has happened in Mumbai you don't have the right to say you are an Indian or Citizen of any country. You can't find one Indian who's not talking about the Mumbai Terror attack. There is a wave of change. This shouldn’t settle down. Instead, it should become a movement against terrorism. Everyone is angry with the current system. Translate this anger into a driving force. Let it lead us to Peace and Harmony. Don’t let this terror attack fade away, like so many in the past. Speak out and start an unstoppable war against terrorism so the future would see the word “terrorism” only in the pages of the History.

Thanks to dear friend Asha for forwarding this poem to me. It's a wake-up call for all.
First they came for the Communists,and
I didn't speak up,
because I wasn't a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews,and
I didn't speak up,
because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics,and
I didn't speak up,
because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me,and
by that time there was no one left
To speak up for me.
-Rev. Martin Niemöller, 1946
("First they came…" is a poem attributed to Pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984) about the inactivity of German intellectuals following the Nazi rise to power and the purging of their chosen targets, group after group.)
