Romesh, your point is crystal clearly understood. Now here's the quesiton. Would killing all of the muslims around the world eliminate the problems of the world? Let's say it is attainable (regardless of other humanitarian issues). Does it gurantee that there wouldn't be another fundamentalist? Does it gurantee there wouldn't be another insurgent? Does it gurantee there wouldn't be another terrorist? Hitler walked the same path of antipathy, and it seemed he was successful for a short period of time. Was he really successful? What was the end of that ordeal? Romesh, it was great to read your excerpt from Mahatma Gandhi " an eye for an eye makes the whole world go blind". My friend, any one can extract it from the book and brag about the great quotation. But, are you comprehending and implying the philosophy of Gandhi's wisdoms into your lifestyle? I got nothing more to say. Peace!!!
