Only Option Left

.

Ms. Barkha Dutt (Saturday Hindustan Times, December 27, 2008, ‘Why War Isn’t an Option’) tries to convince us that war is not an option and suggested an over imaginative solution between war and peace. Though she failed to elaborate, going by her arguments the only option left with us is that we should shout ‘Enough is Enough’ (exactly with Shoba De’s intentions) and light up as many candles as we can. After this we should wait for another terrorist attack to repeat the whole exercise. Next time when Taj is attacked let us not risk the lives of our soldiers or policemen. Let us not call police, Army or NSG unnecessarily. Instead we would start Modi-RSS-VHP-Siv Sena-BJP bashing which is in fact the root cause of all these!! We would not have had to fight so many wars with our neighbour if only we would have avoided the Babri Masjid demolition and Gujrat riots!!! Our job however would be greatly simplified if the root of the terror attack is found elsewhere as then we can go all out on war against these forces that refuse to follow our line and try to chose options that are no options at all.
