The deadly serial bomb blasts on consecutive days in Bangalore and Ahmedabad have shown that the terrorists are confident of striking at will. But what’s the message they are trying to send?
Strategic analysis expert B Raman says that the blasts seem to be directed against the BJP-ruled states.
“The next series of blasts could possibly be carried out in Madhya Pradesh. It is no coincidence that SIMI cadres were arrested in Indore and Ujjain recently,” he says. Earlier blasts this year were carried out in Rajasthan and Karnataka, both BJP-ruled states.
Five minutes before Saturday’s blasts, a television channel received an email from a terror group claiming to be Indian Mujahideen.
In the past one year, this group has owned responsibility for several other strikes. They seem to nurse a grudge against the country’s criminal justice system.
“The innocent Muslims arrested in the (Mumbai) bomb blast case are being tried for years and years,” it says. There is no reference to Kashmir in the email. Read the rest of this entry »

Terror outfit says we did it, promises to target Mukesh Ambani, politicians
New Delhi, July 26 (IANS) A little known terror outfit, Indian Mujahideen, claimed to have taken “revenge of Gujarat in the land of Hind” by orchestrating multiple serial blasts in Ahmedabad Saturday that claimed at least 14 lives and left more than 70 injured, and vowed to target industrialist Mukesh Ambani, and Maharashtra politicians Vilasrao Deshmukh and R.R. Patil in the future.
In a 14-page e-mail sent to select television channels titled “The Rise of Jihad, revenge of Gujarat”, the Indian Mujahideen claimed responsibility for the serial blasts in Gujarat’s main city.

Manmohan Singh was “very confident” about the agreement’s prospects when he met with US President George W Bush on 8th July on the sidelines of the G-8 summit in Japan, spokeswoman Dana Perino told reporters.
“Obviously, the politics in India have been tough to deal with, but he’s been soldiering on and trying to build a consensus,” Perino said.
“It will be up to their congress to make a decision as to if they’re going to move forward or not with what we think is a really good opportunity for India” in the face of energy-hungry economic growth, said Perino, ahead of the trust vote in the Indian Parliament.
“There’s more support here than there at this time, but I know prime minister Singh has been working on it and he felt very confident” about the deal when he and Bush met in Toyako, Japan, said the spokeswoman.
The deal allows India, which refuses to sign the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, to be treated as a special case on condition it separates its civil and military programmes and allows some UN inspections. Read the rest of this entry »

The speech of the mum hero, the most unlikely politician said a thousand words even without a formal delivery and hit another million on the leader of opposition, shri L K Advani. I am not a supporter of any kind of politics and horse trading, but this undelivered speech by Dr Manmohan Singh virtually slapped Mr L K Advani. Here is what he said in his speech
“The leader of opposition, Shri L.K. Advani has chosen to use all manner of abusive adjectives to describe my performance. He has described me as the weakest prime minister , a nikamma(useless) PM, and of having devalued the office of PM. To fulfill his ambitions he has made atleast three attempts to topple our government. But on each occasion his astrologers have misled him. This pattern, i am sure will be repeated today. At his ripe old age, I do not expect Shri Advani to change his thinking. But for his sake and India’s sake, I urge him at least to change his astrologers so that he gets more accurate.
As for Shri Advani’s various charges, I do not wish to waste the time of the house in rebutting them. All I can say is that before leveling the charges of incompetence on others, Shri Advani should do some introspection…”
spoke a frustrated PM
To the Left parties
” The left wanted me to behave as their bonded slave.
The left should tell us if they want Advani as prime minister “

The trust vote has been won by the government showing the nation that power politics is still in the hands of congress.
Votes in favour of government : 275
Votes against the government : 259
Abstain:10
The Manmohan Singh led govt has shown that winning is more important than the method used to reach there. You beg, buy or steal, the ultimate result is that the nuclear deal is going to happen, which I feel will do a lot good to the nation. This trust vote has also shown us that India is up for sale as its MPs can be traded. You just need to quote the right price and thats what congress did effectively.
