Terrorism @ Hindus

Dear Gowri,
I intently went thru' the article posted by you "The Hindu Rate Of Wrath-By Francois Gautier" and found many of his points really interesting and logical. I fully appreciate and respect his views considering his credentials on the subject which he had recorded nicely in the earlier part of the article. It also coincides substantially your stance on many of your postings touching upon this subject. Further, I also got reminded the way I got "bitten up" on a particular occassion when I touched upon the innocently your pet subject "terrorism".....!! (see, old wounds never heal so easily)
Well, I was particularly touched by the sentence in the article "It is this Hinduness that makes the Indian Christian different from, say, a French Christian, or the Indian Muslim unlike a Saudi Muslim". Yes, I too feel that there is a touch of our invisible but strong culture in all our people...and some how I did not feel at home when you lashed the Muslim people of India in general. I also remember few of your statements earlier in this context that you did have lot of muslim friends and like them individually BUT it is the general psyche of the religion that you are not happy with......
I feel the reverse is much better a reality....We need to despise few individuals (most of the terrorist outfits operating in our country are 2 dozen people or so right ?) who create all confusions and tortures spoiling the basic points professed by Religions....what ever it might be.....!!
I am not getting into any arguements.....but just want to record what I got triggered about. with my limited exposure on this subject (and no "data" at all), this article posted by you gave me the clarity for my feeling which I could not identify myself.....and argue with you on the earlier occassion.....
Thanks // Suchoo
ps:- With my sentiments expressed to an average muslim (note...not my muslim friends alone), I still do not join our honourable prime minister when he seemingly boasted off to the western world that there is no single "Indian" muslim in Al Queda...though we boast of max number of muslims amongst all the countries....!! Some times people are dangerously biased....!

There has been some recent news you might like to hear.Obama is making it better for us already! There has been an increase of money availability to everyone. Due to recession there is increased funding for all types of grants. Even lenders are bending over backwards to bail you out too. Regardless of statistics, there is people getting tons of cheap money for personal use, investments,start businesses, buy homes, pay off debt, and more. Bailout is for YOU
