Thats a refreshingly different take on this unfortunately tragic incident …

Ok, i am not an expert on writing styles, but here is a comment – I think u have a fairly decent sense of humour. But that humour will carry more punch if you have a more taut writing style. Remember, Brevity is the Sword of Wit. So if u can convey ur humour in slightly fewer words and words that carry more weight than the normally used ones,and in a style thats more prose like than normally spoken out sentences, i think u have a neat blog. I think with practice u can do that.

Very sorry for deleting your comment. It was a very nice article, but could you please post a link to it, instead of pasting the whole article here?

My apologies, but am just trying to keep the comments on topic.

I can see now a days that people are blaming one or the another. By one way or the other. News channels blaming politicians, people blaming politicians, politicians blaming each other. Instead doing something constructive/good, everyone is busy blaming each other. Found something similar here. Someone else blaming news channels and politicians.

Enough, otherwise it will sound like I am blaming you. Nothing personal.

Sameer.

The media is free to take a dig at me.

What do u think you are doing? are you also not using the unfortunate incident to your benefit?

the media have completely exposed themselves as incompetent nincompoops. never have i so many in such a hyper state.

everyone seemed to be in need of anxiety control pills; sardesai was the worst. he was completely bonkers – at one time he even announced the terrorists had started firing at RBI. minutes later he apologized, but kept repeating the rumor – he just couldn’t stop himeslf.

and yet again, everyone started parroting the same bulls*** about mumbai’s “spirit” and “resilience” and how it will “bounce back” (as though all other cities somehow refuse to get back to normal).

sardesai even asked a group of prominent bombayites whether mumbai would bounce back – this, when the operation had entered another gory phase, people were still dying, bombs were going off!

and why was there no central media co-ordinator? why were NSG, army and navy officials allowed to speak to the media? the country has become the laughing stock of the whole world.

But just a smalll correction which in the current scheme of things might be insignificant. your point no.4 is flawed. all the TV networks from the buildings in and around the Taj was disabled.
but i am sure the terrorists could have got all the info through their sateliite phones or some other futuristic gadget.

With the antique rifled that our policemen had the terrorists could have well watched cartoon network during the mission (provided they had satellite tv connection)
