Serial Blasts Rock India - What on Earth is going on???

Here we go again with the second round of serial blasts in Ahmedabad, Gujarat after yesterday's serial blasts is Bangalore. We don't know what is the motivation behind these serial blasts, but they continue to rock one city after another.

Yesterday, the IT hub of India, Bangalore was shocked by multiple blasts killing two people and injuring at least four, the first such attack after nine bombs went off in the northern city of Jaipur in May.

The devices were equivalent to the intensity of two grenades and timers were used, police commissioner Shankar Bidari said in the southern Indian city today. Television pictures showed police with dogs investigating the scene of the blasts that blew out windows and damaged walls.

Terrorist attacks in Indian cities have killed more than 140 people in the past year as multiple explosive devices strapped to bicycles, hidden under cinema seats and near market stalls have targeted civilians. While the government typically blames foreign- trained terrorists, most of the attacks are unsolved.

And today, seventeen serial blasts in crowded market areas in the space of 20 minutes rocked the Gujarat capital on Saturday night leaving eighteen killed and injuring above 100.The low-intensity explosions occurred at eight areas of Maninagar, Isanpur, Narol circle, Bapunagar, Hatkeshwar and Sarangpur bridge, Sarkej and Odhav and created a wave of panic.

Television channels claimed they got an e-mail from little known outfit called 'Indian Mujahideen' to say they were responsible for Saturday's blasts. The same outfit had claimed responsibility for the blasts in Jaipur and Uttar Pradesh.

But, the satire is that all these blasts are linked with politics! The new reads - Two BJP led states have been bombed by terrorists!! Lets beat it guys!! How can they come to such a crazy conclusion that it is linked to politics??!! You may say that BJP people might have been in a fury after losing the trust vote to the UPA govt on June 22. But, that doesn't mean that its going to bomb India for that!! And that too in a region that it is ruling!! They have the brains to know that if they are linked to such an incident even in the slightest manner, they'll never be able to step into the political regime once again!

This is purely a terrorist attack by some group called Indian Mujahideen. Lo! Here they are again to spoil the name of the Muslim Community again!! The mail reads "In The Name Of Allah"!! What a bunch of cheap bastards!! Because of them only, Muslims are having such a bad name all over the world.

And think of this - Is a terrorist going to think whether to attack a BJP-led govt state or a UPA-led govt state!! Nonsense!! They're psychos who'll target anyone, anyplace!! Its on our part to be alert and inform the police or security personnel if anything is found suspicious, atleast from now on. I think its crazy to link politics and terrorism. Yes, I do think of politicians as people who are bent on sucking the blood of common people!! But this is ridiculous!! Anyways, take care people, and please do drop in your comments on what you think about it. Until then, its me Chella signing off with a hope that these horrible activities come to a halt. Bye :)
