Perhaps we all need to do what Raza did. Instead of running away, we need to turn back and stay where the terrorists want to scare us away from.

“TS Anklesaria, who attended the gathering from a distant suburb with his wife, said that “perhaps the time has come to adopt what Jinnah said and not what Mahatma Gandhi said”.

“Jinnah said that if someone slaps you once, you must slap him harder. That is what we need now.” ”

I was stuck with the thought that these militants actually attacked the city which the founding father of Pakistan loved and wanted to live in and perhaps die in.

India has gone through a difficult phase when lots of people thought it will not survive. It managed to though there is no guarantee of tomorrow. Even if these were a fantasy, the small possibility of them coming true is horrendous. So I would say that these doomsday predictors are actually doing a good job. Cos unless you survive you have not survived. But I salute your return back to the country. Actions speak louder than words. The imagined failure of the Pakistan project is nothing but a fantasy.

Not meaning to be negative here or for that matter taking away from a momentous event, but homecomings like these often have a honeymoon period that slowly but surely draws to a close to let reality step in...
