Ram/Allah/Jesus/Pink Unicorn! Not again.

It is grossly insensitive on my part to pay such a late tribute to the Malegaon Blast victims. I stand guilty, but my heart really goes out to the victims of the blast. The government has to make doubly sure that the perpetrators are brought to the book this time unlike the Mumbai blasts.
Wait! I don't think that in any way the 37 lives lost here are any more precious than the 200 lives lost in the Mumbai or vice versa. In fact I feel that even one human life is just as important as two hundred and vice versa. A life is like the concept of infinity on maths. One times infinity is the same two times infinity or even ten times infinity. Similarly life with its limitless possiblities is priceless.
But this time though, there are children among victims here and I feel that the life of a child (some of whom don't even know the word 'hate') is more valuable than that of an adult. This is something that I am ready to debate on with anyone.
I hate dramatic journalism and I doubly hate CNN-IBN which in my eyes will always remain a pro-US news channel, but this piece of news shows just a sample of what lies in store for the victim and their families during every terror attack.Damn you terrorists! Whichever organisation is responsible for this should be branded a terrorist group immediately and should be treated in the same way as the LeT or JeM.
I want to show my solidarity to the victims and hope that they find the strength to overcomes this insurmountable loss in their lives. Hum honge kaamiyab.

oh yes, CNN-IBN will always be the worst thing that happened in Indian. don't all mews channels use some international links? TIMES Now (Reuters) and Headlines Today (Voice of America) to name a few. I prefer NDTV for the honest and "INDIAN" coverage that they give
