Mumbai’s night of terror

“MUMBAI – The unprecedented night of horror in India’s financial capital began at about 9.30 pm for two Germans, Rita and Thomas, part of a Lufthansa in-flight crew finishing dinner at Leopold Cafe in Colaba in south Mumbai. Barely five hours earlier, Asia Times Online published an article (Closing time for India’s Iranian cafes) mentioning the restaurant as a favorite of Western tourists, and this popularity caused it to be among the first of 12 terrorist targets on Wednesday night that killed more than 80 people and injured nearly 300, and the figures are rising. ” > more.

India: Terror Has No Religion

India. “The aggressive defence by the Shiv Sena of the terrorist activities of people acting in the name of Hindutva, combined with the BJP’s refusal to condemn these activities, represent a danger mark in the political response to the rising tide of bomb attacks and violence against innocents. Any effort to give terrorism a communal colour will surely spell disaster for our country. ” > more.

Hunger Isn’t History

“The world produces more food than ever. So why do nearly a billion people still not have enough to eat ? - On the road toward fulfilling the Bono-endorsed slogan, “Make Poverty History,” the world has hit an unexpected speed bump: prosperity. India‘s expanding auto industry puts 4,300 new cars a day on already-crowded streets. Oil-wealthy Russia has doubled its meat consumption since 2000. Brazil’s sizzling economy is growing its use of steel at a faster rate (over 20 percent this year alone) than nearly any other nation. China has increased its consumption of eggs by a factor of ten in recent years.” > more.

Mangalore communal riots

“Forced conversion is bad and should not be allowed.  The Hindu right groups have alleged that the Christian groups resorted to this.  However the Christians deny that.  So it is debatable wether ‘forced’ conversion actually happened and with how many people being involved.   If it was voluntary conversion – I would side with those who got converted ………it was their right.” > more.

Cry for help from Orissa (India)

Here is a mail that reached me this morning and that made me very concerned. How would I be in such a situation? Even so brave as my friend or helpless and desperate. The measure of people bringing together, to give help to Orissa, is a courageous measure of my friend in such a situation in which some 100 people were killed and in the meantime 13,000 Christians are living in refugee camps and many other Christians are submerged. Many have fled into the jungle.
