Operation BAD ?? or Management BAD !!!

Saturday was the 3rd time in 2 months that the Indian Mujahideen has managed to bomb another of India's cities and god knows how many times have in the past 4 years. Everytime a these A£$%$%^ strike, the Union minister goes on air saying that everything is being done to nab the culprits and justice will be done. But apart from Gujarat police nabbing few terrorists last month nothing has occurred and none of the others culprits have been brought to justice.

While the government is still contemplating on punishing the terrorists already tried for the 2001 parliamentary attack, scores of new terrorists are being recruited everyday. I read an article the other day on some website which says Nagori (The SIMI head who is at present in Indore jail) wanted 2 new recruits for every person from SIMI who is nabbed by the police. Nagori was also instrumental in formation of the Shaheen force, which another front of the SIMI recruitment division consisting of women (mostly elderely) who brainwash young minds and convince them to take up terrorism.

There was another report that suggested that India is only behind Afghanistan and Iraq in the number of civilians killed in terrorists incidents. With all such incidents, we as citizens would think that the government would become more responsible and proactive in preventing terrorist attacks. Its clearly seen that the existing laws against terrorism is a clear joke and we do require something more stringent and strong that would discourage these would-be terrorists in becoming one. All countries have very strict terrorists laws and these laws are occassionally misused everywhere, but that does not stop them repealing the law and bring in a "joke". The pseudo-secular media is very instantaneous in pointing out that POTA had been misused, but what is the solution then. How long are we gonna take to realize that the existing law is not enough. The UPA says that POTA is extreme, the pseudo-secular media supports it, but clearly the number of terrorists incidents show that the existing law is not enough. How many more people need to die for the Govt to come to an agreement that the current law is just not quite enough. DAMMIT! no need of POTA, but something far more stricter than the existing law.

The UPA has for long now been suffering from Stockholm syndrome, their ministers have gone to the extent of visiting the terrorists and providing them consolation, but these people rarely care about the innocent people who are losing the lives regularly during these acts of cowardice by the terrorists!!! Its a real shame that today we are in a situation that terrorists have the audacity to mail all tv channels ahead of the blasts making a complete mock our security and intelligence. Lets face it there has been a complete intelligence failure during all of these blasts and the investigations by the police department has been totally pathetic and lets not even talk about the Govt!!! I've heard that hospitals in Delhi are having a torried time taking care of the security measures for the visiting ministers that they have started to ignore the patients who require the actual attention.

Time and again we have seen the (dis) functioning of these elected representatives, the rule makers and protecters, why should we citizens suffer for the mis-management of the administration. I believe its time we citizens take up the responsibility of National Security. If one tech savvy terrorist has managed to cause so much havoc, just imagine how much can we patriotic and tech savvy/educated/responsible citizens can be helpful towards national security. I think its time for Citizen Intelligence Movement of India (CIMI) because we have lost trust in the UPA govt and our Intelligence agencies require a lot of help from us citizens. CIMI must be an umbrella organization of all responsible citizens of India, who want to fight this menace of terrorism. Being responsible citizens, all of us have an important duty towards our Country and that's in helping towards national security. All of us can keep constant vigilance and be on the look out for various would-be terrorists and suspsicious behaviour on the Internet or in our neighbourhood. Any such behaviour must be immediately brought to the attention of the Police. You've would have heard of Friends of Police organization that available in numerous cities, this new organization can work in coordination with such groups. There is no substitute for People/Citizen power. If all of us take up an oath to weed out terrorism from India, we surely can. It is the responsibility of every citizen of India, we cant trust the politicians to this for us. its upto us now to weed out these cowards!!!

We have numerous NGO like Fifth Pillar etc which are very helpful in fighting corruption, why can't we have such an NGO to gather Intelligence and fight terror. I am sure, there would be numerous citizens like me who would want to help out our Country in this regard. This is a thought I've had for a long time, I know its too early and might sound stupid to a few, but this is just the begining of a long journey that we all responsible citizens have towards achieving a terrorists or a terrorism free India!! and I am sure if we do get some where with such a plan, CIMI along with the help of other Indian Intelligence agencies and the police department can fight and defeat SIMI, Indian Mujahideen and all such terrorists outfits.

PS:

As you would have already known by now, that all of the mails sent by Indian Mujahideen were done through unsecured Wi-Fi connections. Wi-Fi is relatively new technology in India and there aren't many people who actually take up the security of Wi-Fi connection as a serious business. Even in developed countries like the UK and US, you would find numeorus Wi-Fi un-secure networks. There are numerous sites that provide information on how to secure your Wi-Fi connection. Rediff has recently come up with an article on how to achieve this, you can read about it here. Although the details provided here are not completely foolproof, its a good starting point. All wirless networks must be regularly monitored to ensure there are no misuse for the same.

For people who think that what can an ordinary citizen do when our very own Intelligence agencies are not being successful. I would like to point you people Simon Wiesenthal, the world famous Holocaust survivor, who main aim/mission in life was to bring all Nazi war criminals to justice and he single handedly collected enough information on all Nazi war criminals who had escaped/disappeared after Germany's surrender. Its said that Simon Wiesenthal's data was used by Mossad (although they don't openly admit it) to capture various Nazi war criminals.
