Why only Muslims are called terrorists?It may seem a rant or that I am over-reacting but in 24 hrs, India braved two major terrorist strikes: In the first, Naxalites killed 12 CRPF policemen in Chhattisgarh and in other incident, 18 persons killed in Manipur in blasts by suspected People Revolutionary Party of Kangleipak (PRPK). Ironically they were not considered terrorist strikes.Not one inspect

Special ArticlePrime Minister Manmohan Singh has described Maoists as "the biggest internal security challenge." There are high-level coordination committees at the Central and State levels to constantly review and fine-tune counter strategies but left-wing extremism, which has spread across 15 States, now threatens to turn the special economic zones (SEZs) concept into a new conflict ground and potential agenda for its cadres.

Security forces, particularly the Central Paramilitary Forces, are also aware that the Maoist threat needs to be tackled not only by policing but also from economic and cultural perspectives. The central forces and special forces such as the National Security Guard, endowed with cutting edge of technology and highly-trained manpower, feel the need for a
A report is in today that two young lesbians have been released by Maoists.Now, you may have thought the only Maoists still around hung out at Harvard Square and in their Mom's basement, as they made an annoying presence on the Internet.

Even in the United States, we recently saw Democratic legislators undermine the Massachusetts Supreme Court decision allowing same sex marriage, by throwing the equal protection issue to the masses to decide.And you are aware that Hillary and Obama are unwilling to frame gay and lesbian issues in the context of a fundamental right which the government should keep the fuck out of?This is because they see government interference as a good thing. So they are more than willing to support stuff like ha
