The following is an extract from a blog entry that I wrote on June 26th, 2007 in Rediff.

Why?

"I am writing after a long time. Though I claimed to be lazy and killed my previous blog, I needed to vent out. I do not want any comments, no sympathy, no advice. I am simply writing for my own needs.

Yesterday's incidents have left me with a feeling of absolute helplessness. Innocent bystanders getting killed in bomb blasts for some far fetched reason that only the most screwed up of human minds can conceive is simply beyond me. I fail to understand the purpose behind waging a war against people who are least connected with it. It leaves me with absolutely no hope in the ways of right or wrong.

And there comes the ever present debate where was God when these many people got massacred? It shakes up my permanent belief that there is somebody looking over us all and is there to set scales straight. But somehow I get the irrepressible feeling that this is an all consuming vortex, and I don't know when and how all this will end"

Sounds like a nightmare from hell..Only this time there was a sequel on November 26th and more casualties than before. I could not do anything but watch in horror at what was happening.
