Terrorism Terrorism Everywhere!!

I hardly watch the news channels. Neither am I politically well knowledged. Its only when something significant happens and I come to hear of it because everywhere everyone is talking about it, I google for the latest news on that and get myself updated. But somehow over the past few months I have become well aware of almost all news and this is because everything has been so hugely significant. What is making me write this blog is the headlines of this morning: TERRORISTS ATTACK MUMBAI. Few months back we had a series of blasts in some cities in India. Now it is another attack in Mumbai.  What is going on??? I am not a big time social worker or a writer who is fighting for justice. I am an ordinary citizen of the country or you could say, the world, who only feels disgusted with such things that are happening endlessly. Just when we think we are recovering from one bad time, there is another that is worse. I do not understand why we can't be more cautious and more ready for such sudden attacks. It is a well known fact that our country is way behind other countries in terms of providing security to a common man. I cannot understand why people who have the immediate power to make a change do not take effective and drastic actions! According to me drastic actions are the only way we can show the depth of our hurt and make way for a ray of hope for a better world. 
            I do not understand what really is the point of all this !!! You kill other people, kill yourselves, wreck others' peace ... what does a terrorist even gain with all this?? I cannot even imagine that there is actually a Leader who is sitting and educating his fellowmen that we need to attack these people and kill them! Why!!!!!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?! Frustrating to even think of this. It must be even worse for the people in Mumbai right now. My deepest condolences to the families of those who were killed, hurt and for those who are right now being killed ... 

My hopes of seeing a fairy land have increased against my hopes of seeing a peaceful world ...
