Nostalgic:Save my Nation

we are the largest democracy in the world, and have been fighting terrorism since we obtained independence in 1947. The wisdom of the 3000 yr old Indian civilization to realize the dream is getting the pits . India is no stranger to terrorism. But the terrorism that India has had to face for some decades can by no means be connected only to Islam; and in almost every case the ruling government has played a part in causing and even nurturing the phenomenon. If we look at the story of Sikh extremism in the 1980s in Punjab, we find it has an eerie resonance with the events that took place in Washington and New York.
Just when we thought the die was cast, we are plunged into a period of tragic uncertainty. Of course, in the world of self-preservation, everything had to be anticipated.But The terrible thing about terrorism is that ultimately it destroys those who practice it. Slowly but surely, as they try to extinguish life in others, the light within them dies.
Defeating terrorism is more difficult and far-reaching than we have assumed. We may be advancing the ball down the field at will, running over our opponent's defenses, but winning the game is another matter altogether.
But we can’t accommodate terrorism anymore….
