There has been huge cries all over the world regarding civilian casulaties in the war of Iraq. Some thoughts about this...
1. there is no war without civilian casualties...this everybody should be aware of and there is no need to make big issue of this...whereever it happens......we are not living in an era of rajas and sainikas...common men die fullstop...
having said this....we shud also keep in mind that...in kashmir there is no war...terrorists cooly can do what they want...no clear opposition for them...
2. the definition of terrorism has changed over a period of time...general dyer who killed so many indians in jallianwallah bagh was a terrorist...nobody except me say this maybe...bhagat singh used violence and threw bombs in meetings...would you call him a terrorist?...what is happening in iraq today...a grp blow up themseleves in protest against american occupation...they kill people who in someway try to help americans...people who want to join the us lead army or people who try to be pro american journalists...sometimes
so called innocent people...but if bhagat singh was not a terrorist, why are these iraqis called terrorists...is it wrong to fight for freedom?
3. islamic fundamentalists...treating islam as one is a mistake...islam like all (most) religions has 2 parts...shias and sunnies \ rich and poor...the tussel started as a tussel between these grps and a tussel of money...there are islamic nations who are filthy rich and there are islamic states who are exteremely poor...the rich became richer by selling oil to the christian nations...and not assisting the poorer nations, who expected money from them...the pressure on the rich went so high that they wanted to show that they do care for islam...they started funding madrasas for study of islam...some were satisfied...but some more wanted more...when they dint get more...they used the democracry vs communist battle and took support from the opposite sides...islamic world was broken...when communism broke...the islamic guys lost money and power...now to get back the power and money they used the quran....
unlike hinduism (i think only religion in the world who dont have a binding of any book or saying)...islam lives on quran, like christians on bible...they used the funds to madrasas to develop their base...in the name of islam they extracted more and more money from richer nations....and in someways they are still doingit....today majority of the top religious(heads of mosques) guys are fundamentalists...and in islam where religion and quran is more than anything else....the fundamentalists thots are spreading faster and faster...
its hard to remove the islamic fundamentalism...till somebody tells them that quran is not the end of world...this wont happen...so war does not end...
quran is also the reason for the violence like below...iraq is under seige...so what happens to muslim in london...iraq is not the end of islam...but still they fight...iraqis fighting for their freedom is right...but londoners fighting for iraq is not reasonable...its like burning deve gowda's photos in kashmir for what he did to siddaramaih...;-))
