NYT: White capitalists to blame for Wal-Mart trampling death
While India awaits the outcome of the criminal investigation in the aftermath of the attacks, some analysts have speculated that a marked shift in Indian foreign policy over the last few years, namely a growing closeness to the US, could be a reason why the country was targeted by international terror networks.
Some have already started to question the wisdom behind the tilt towards the US and say it has put India on the vulnerable side of the economic and social world order.
The only silver lining is that there have been no blatant calls for Pakistani blood.
The Pakistani foreign minister’s presence in India helped calm the situation as he made some sensible observations about both countries being united in grief.
The neighbouring countries have also decided to share intelligence information and the impending visit of the Pakistani intelligence agency (ISI) chief to New Delhi is anxiously awaited to clear up the clouds of suspicion.
It is clear that intelligence officials across the world will have to develop better coordination to battle against such attacks.
Root causes
However, it would not be wise to assume that all this can be controlled without addressing the root causes of such brazen assaults.
Socio-religious and economic harmony will continue to be challenged unless disparities are acknowledged and amended.
It happened in Islamabad yesterday, Mumbai today and can happen in any other city tomorrow.
Nations and cities cannot function in a state of red alert, nor can para-military forces constantly be policing their own citizens.
The images and sounds of gunpowder and firing and mortar shells broadcast through TV networks across the country are likely to linger long after the dust settles on the violence unleashed in Mumbai.
Amitabh Bachchan, the iconic Bollywood star, summed it up in his blog when he said that he slept with his revolver loaded under his pillow.
This aptly reflects the sentiment of a city under seige.
Once again, a horrific atrocity has been committed by a group of committed, determined Muslims willing and eager to die in the name of their faith. And, as usual, the Islamic groups have pulled out their standard boilerplate responses:
Disclaimer #1: “These people do not represent True Islam.â€Â
Disclaimer #2: “You must not blame all Muslims for the deeds of these misguided few (who we embraced as brothers right up until they started killing).â€Â
Disclaimer #3: “What they did was terrible, but they were provoked by the oppression and attacks on Muslims around the world, mostly by Israel and the West.â€Â
Disclaimer #4: “We fear a terrible backlash from non-Muslims, and demand that you protect us from those who would threaten us or say mean things or do things to insult us.â€Â
It looks like we’re somewhere between #2 and #3, but we can be quite certain that within a week or two they’ll get around to the fourth point.
It would make a fascinating study to compare two numbers: the number of people killed every year by Muslims for the offense of not being Muslim, and the number of Muslims killed every year by non-Muslims for the offense of being Muslim.
And, maybe, a third number: the number of Muslims killed every year by other Muslims for the offense of not being good enough Muslims, or the wrong type of Muslim.
My completely uneducated guess would be that the first number would be far, far greater than the second  and the third would dwarf the first two combined.
Other religions have had their aggressive, expansionist, conquering phase, but they grew out of it. Islam is still in its aggressive, conquering phase. It’s been often noted that “Islam has bloody borders.†One can only hope that it, too, will grow and mature past it.
And soon  or that backlash that they whine about just might happen some day.
I feel a list coming on. Of scumbags who, we notice, are alive but shouldn’t be. Something is broken.
No. It’s the jihad, stupid.
Civilians will be slaughtered in the streetsSocio-religious and economic harmony will continue to be challenged unless disparities are acknowledged and amended until the jizyah is payed and complete submission to the will of radical clerics is the norm.
Ok, try again:
Civilians will be slaughtered in the streets, Socio-religious and economic harmony will continue to be challenged unless disparities are acknowledged and amended until the jizyah is payed and complete submission to the will of radical clerics is the norm.
nope html tags not so good.
It should probably be routine and boring by now, but it never ceases to astonish: The Islamists get up in public, and explain in words of few syllables and sentences with simple structure what their aims and intents are, and what their strategies and tactics will be. Then they sit down, and before they can get their robes arranged in the damned uncomfortable Western chairs, up pops a leftoid to explain that nothing the guy said has any relation to reality, and the real reason they’re doing that is [insert leftoind laundry-list here].
I swear, it’s got to be at least forty percent of the reason they’re so soreheaded all the time. Being constantly called an ignoramus and a liar has to get wearing.

Ric
I suspect the “wearing” comes more from the “being” than from the “calling,” Ric.
Socio-religious and economic harmony will continue to be challenged unless disparities are acknowledged and amended.
So, these killers wouldn’t have had a jihadist thought in their heads if they could only have gotten jobs in a tech support call center…?
Having jackasses like that “helping” you with your meaning has to be pretty freaking irritating on its own.
Scott: whether or not a given individual is in fact stupid and/or ignorant doesn’t affect how they feel about being called that. Example: thor.
Regards,
Ric
The New York Times is using its own market as propaganda fodder? That seems uncommonly stupid even for them.
On a broader theme, it’s no wonder libs have no trouble blaming conservatives for everything. When we’ve done wrong (even in the smallest sense) we tend to own up to it, and they never do (or at least, when they do: “it was my fault but I wouldn’t have had to do it if it weren’t for…” which is a way of not actually taking responsibility). So of course, everything is always the fault of the folks who “admit” that they do bad things. Makes me want to consider never taking responsibility for anything again. But that’s no way to live. Plus the whole generalized white guilt thing would be a bear to have to live with.
Pablo #9, if you’re referring to my comment, you and Ric both have my sincere apologies. I’m fully aware that the meaning of Ric’s writing needs none of my help.
I’m simply suggesting that being an actual ignoramus might, in the long run, be more difficult to endure than being called one.
My completely uneducated guess would be that the first number would be far, far greater than the second
The Muslims our troops accidently kill should go in the “the number of Muslims killed every year by non-Muslims for the offense of being Muslim” column.
We frequently take out the equivalent of a Mubai in a single wedding party strike.
Ah, the infamous, obligatory, spurious wedding party defense. In addition to being tu quoque, one must suspend all belief in the existence of enemy psy-ops.
Sorry, parsnip, but you’re screwing up the glamour part of the title.
Yes, parsnip, Stupid mean old Murkin troops always choose to bomb wedding parties. In fact, they actually go through the local engagement announcements to plan their next bombings. Undercover Murkin lance corporals disguise themselves as Muslim wedding planners and relay the receptions’ locations to pinpoint, professional wedding party bombers who have specially designed wedding party bombs in their bombbays and wait until the first toast to drop their bombs. It’s a well-known fact that, if a bomber doesn’t drop his bombs on the wedding party before the Muslim father-daughter dance, his combat pay is docked and he then has to go undercover as a Muslim wedding party planner (those pastel hijab are too frilly to be comfortable).
Most experts agree: If Muslim wedding parties rented balloon-fences to place around their wedding reception sites first, their wedding parties would not be bombed. However, many choose to have the full-scale chicken-stuffed-inside-a-goat-stuffed-into-a-camel buffet surprise instead–a woeful misuse of their wedding party budget.
Scott, remember the old maxim. Ignorance is bliss.
Personally, I’d rather it were excruciatingly painful.
enemy psy-ops
“Enemy” meaning any media that works for the terrorists by announcing what they’ve done?
Let’s face it, if the same people had died in a hotel fire, this story might get a single passing mention in the MSM and blogs.
If they’d starved to death, no mention at all.
Bloggers and MSM editors know what their audience craves.
Is the head dead yet?
I think the root cause is that Amitabh Bachchan didn’t have a loaded revolver under his pillow last night. Luckily this appears to be self-correcting. Hopefully memory will remain.
And, of course, Muslims who blow up wedding parties (or, indeed, any random assemblage of women, children, and/or cute puppies) generate no resentment whatever, or at least no justifiable resentment. All for the Cause, eh, alph?
Regards,
Ric
I thought they preferred funerals, Ric.
the same people had died in a hotel fire, this story might get a single passing mention in the MSM and blogs.
Yeah, bah-by, because death by car accident is the same as death by first degree murder!
Well, probably, Maggie, but alph needed to be reminded that not all wedding bombings are done by by bitter, clinging Amurrican sodjers forced into their positions by economic forces. Not that it will do any good in the specific case, of course, but onlookers should have the information.
Regards,
Ric
Form a committee for aesthetic deletions, in other words?
Yeah, bah-by, because death by car accident is the same as death by first degree murder!
For the victims it is, Darleen.
The left is utterly unwilling to judge on any basis other than political utility. Thus, jihadis seeking to commit murder are morally neutral (or, possibly, a net good, if they can blame the US or Israel) in their world, while any product of a free society that increases anyone’s risk of death by even the smallest fraction is proof that “big business” would slit your throat in order to increase the bottom line.
(Oh, and the wedding party crap is another favorite of the “alpha victim”. Why do asshats who’ve been banned insist on coming back?)
Committee? Aren’t there too many committees already, as in, a major part of the thing that’s broken?
How’s about one or two of those extant law writing committees in the EU re-instituting the death penalty for terrorist murderers within their jurisdiction, for a start, so the murdering bastards aren’t seen to walk away from a “life” sentence after doing 15-20 years? No forming necessary in other words. Just do justice.
#12, PG:
“The reason any conservative’s failing is always major news is that it allows liberals to engage in their very favorite taunt: Hypocrisy! Hypocrisy is the only sin that really inflames them. Inasmuch as liberals have no morals, they can sit back and criticize other people for failing to meet the standards that liberals simply renounce. It’s an intriguing strategy. By openly admitting to being philanderers, draft dodgers, liars, weasels and cowards, liberals avoid ever being hypocrites.”

Thank you for again proving you are a moral moron.
Correction: an amoral moron.
Moral judgements are religious judgements, Darleen.
And your god told you to leave those up to him.
The list of excuses are the same old laundry list of excuses for crime that were presented in the twenty years from the mid 1960’s to the mid 1980’s. And the excuses are just as threadbare and useless now as they were then.
They do because they can. They will stop when they can’t do, or they die.
Moral judgements are religious judgements, Darleen
keep going, root veggie, this is fun.
You don’t think laws against murder, assault and stealing are indicative of the moral values of the society that enacts them?
In a parshit world, there would be no law, courts or jails?
Yes, parsnip, you fathead, if Sharon Tate had been hit by bus and killed instantly, it would have been exactly the same for her family as the reality in which she was butchered to death for quite a while.
My God, how do you sleep at night–no, I’m not talking about your (hah!) conscience or sense of morality. I mean, doesn’t your awareness of your imbecility just tear you up?
No, Darleen.
But in my world, we wouldn’t blow a trillion dollar trying to avenge ourselves on people who are already dead.
It’s a fucked up religion in a lot of ways but what’re ya gonna do. For real lots of them are good eggs. I still like the part where we kill terrorists. Baracky has taken so much off the table in terms of a muscular response I bet the terrorist people are feeling a little giddy. Hopefully the terrorist people will focus on being someone else’s problem out of their sense of solidarity with Baracky but somehow I doubt it.
But in my world…
…everyone would speak either German or Japanese.
It was unremarked upon that I saw anywhere that maybe the “humanitarian mission” what CNN has discovered in Iraq is more for international consumption than for us here at home. That’s my tentative thinking on their propagandizing anyway.
Oh, hell, I’m gonna join the eugenicist/pro-abortion side. If nishi, thor, and parsnip are examples of modern humanity, jsut the hell with it.
When you stare into the abyss, you notice it’s drooling a bit and its left eye is all twitchy.

Dude, that is fucking funny.
#30- N. O’Brain-
I couldn’t agree more!
India is for real historically a lot more backlashy than most countries terrorists terrorize. I bet they don’t disappoint this time around but we’ll see I guess. Pakistan does not choose its enemies wisely I don’t think. If I were a Pakistani I would be embarrassed my country was so dirty and debased and revolting.
The 9/11 hijackers were trained in America, happy.
Yet you guys never call for attacks on Florida and Arizona for some reason.
Guilt by association for thee but not for me?
The Al Jazeera report about Pakistani foreign minister is a joke. The guy sat there trying to deflect the blame, implying that India always shouts out “Pakistan” in knee-jerk fashion, and this could be internal. Pakistan is great at PR, it’s almost as if when we were partitioned, they got all the PR prowess and we got democracy. While I’ll take democracy any day, Pakistan gets away far too much and the PR is leaving a bad taste in the mouth.
We have screwed up a few times in India and as an Indian, I feel shitty about it. A pakistani blogger came over to my blog and decided to lecture India a little. I had to respond. Please read @ http://tinyurl.com/6ooluu
oh. whatever. I fully support a limited tactical primary challenge by special forces in Arizona to take out McCain’s tired useless ass at whatever cost. hey I just noticed I was being oblique earlier at #41. My thought I’m working on is that as CNN starts to propagandize the world in the interest of Baracky’s dirty socialist America without the terrorist people on board they might could get a heaping helping of backlash themselves.
That’s ok, Indian Guy. India is a lot the future and everybody messes up sometimes. You guys hang in there cause you are a promising beacon of real hope in the world not Baracky’s dirty socialist plastic fake kind.
“Other religions have had their aggressive, expansionist, conquering phase, but they grew out of it. Islam is still in its aggressive, conquering phase. It’s been often noted that “Islam has bloody borders.†One can only hope that it, too, will grow and mature past it.”
Islam has been in it’s ‘aggressive, expansionist, conquering’ phase since 630 AD…
If Islam hasn’t ‘grown’ and ‘matured’ out of that ‘phase’ in 1,378 years…how much longer should the world wait before being justified in reaching another conclusion?
Might it be that Islamic radicals are simply being true to a primary tenant of Islam, that Jihad continues until Islam rules supreme over the entire world?
In which case, Islam’s ‘aggressive, expansionist,& conquering’ isn’t a PHASE but is rather its very NATURE?
And if that is so, it is Islam’s ‘moderates’ who refuse to face the truth about the religion to which they ‘submit’.
Should this in fact be the reality we face, its an inconvenient truth…to be sure. But refusing to acknowledge the truth NEVER makes it go away.
Pakistan is not the future. It’s sort of a ghetto country really. Bless their hearts but jeez could they be more spastically violent and generally revolting? Probably they could is what I think. They’re on a roll.
The 9/11 hijackers were trained in America, happy.
Yet you guys never call for attacks on Florida and Arizona for some reason.
Dude, you have some major brain issues going on if you think the waiter who serves the rapist his bacon and eggs the day of the rape is just as guilty as the rapist.
If you hold America and American values in such contempt, why don’t you leave?
Thanks, N.O’. I liked how the abyss showed up at #47 to iterate its drooling.
Although parts of FLA I could do without…
For the victims it is, Darleen.
So, al-phee, we need to start prosecuting those involved in accidents as murderers?
Darleen, it can’t figure out how to draw money out of its bank account, buy an airplane ticket to North Korea, and get to the airport.
“Oh,” it wonders,”How do those confounded ATMs work?” Then it cries a little and curls up in back of the dryer again for a nice nap.
#47 Left hand side of the bell curve, eh.
Moral judgements are religious judgements, Darleen.
And your god told you to leave those up to him.
Read the book of Titus (it’s quite short), al-phee, and tell us how one fulfills its commands by morally lobotomizing one’s self (as you appear to have done).
You’re really an ignoramus, buddy.
So, al-phee, we need to start prosecuting those involved in accidents as murderers?
Actually, I believe the root veggie is that weird parasitic creature known as a anarcho-syndicalist, who bleet “homes not jails” and “property is theft” and sneer at Judeao-Christian values and work ethic … but never go anywhere to try and institute their utopia .. they just live on welfare/food stamps or leech off relatives while preening that their lack of any standards or values makes them superior beings.
alphie is sort of starting to give off a doesn’t get out much kind kind of vibe. There’s a certain staleness to his whole shtick that I don’t remember being as pronounced when he was here last time. I think he got a charge out of the Iraq war that’s fading and he’s just sort of festering. Or wallowing. Could be both, it’s hard to know.
I was thinking along the lines of “reductionist moron,” Darleen. Apparently al-phee does believe that pushing an old lady in front of a bus is exactly the same as pushing her out from in front of a bus.
oh. I put kind in there twice. All these different posts linked here are about propaganda. It’s becoming a really big sophisticated thing and I think a lot of little lefty troll people are feeling crowded out of their niche.

Of course, it’s easy to endorse if you believe that a burka is just clothing…like a blouse.
That’s why Ayers and Dohrn are so central to the Democrat political circles in Chicago — they were willing to go all the way and arrange for the murder of others. Dohrn even celebrated the murder of people who had the misfortune to come across the path of Charles Manson, because those people were the wrong class.
Of course, had Ayers fought in Vietnam rather than against the US, he’d be a pariah to the left. Unless he came back and accused US soldiers of acting like “Jenjizz Khan” — that would have netted him a run for the Presidency.
Yeah, because I happen to think the SecState of a free nation shouldn’t even give the time of day to a douchebag figurehead of a third-world kleptocratic theocracy.

I’d say the ‘phony Ayres meme’ didn’t have enough time to work. Neither did the ‘phony Clinton has a bimbo problem’ meme – but look at how that worked out
No, actually alph’s view of Bill the Terrorman makes perfect sense. To him and his ilk, the personal is the political, ie all things are viewed through the lens of politics. Rethuglicans attempted to bring light to the relationship between the Dali Bama and Ayers? Well I’m for Ayers. Bush is waging war against terrorism? I’m against it. It is a precisely reactionary worldview wherein actions do not matter, only ideologies.
Also, alphasnip, I noticed you have been here quite a bit, yet you offer no debate of concepts or ideas. Are you incapable of such debate, or have you realized your ideas tend to be laughable laid bare? Something else entirely? C’mon man.

You’re it.
The “alpha victim” exists simply to strike poses. To the extent it holds opinions, they align precisely with Democrat talking points. Since it’s never reasoned its way into an opinion, it’s incapable of offering support for its opinions. To its (slim) credit, it’s aware of this, so it refuses to actually try to defend an opinion.
I do have to wonder at the emotional state of people who can’t stand the idea they’re being ignored.

I guess there is the possibility of two completely dishonest, disingenuous, amoral twats coming around at once and “arguing” in precisely the same manner, but the probability seems slim, at best.
The funding for Islamic terror comes primarily from a combination of criminal enterprise (organized crime), diversion from so-called “charity” organizations, individuals (some government-linked) who support “global jihad”. Pakistan is a hornet’s nest of such activity, and a well-known training center for terrorism. Dig deeper and you’ll find the Arab influence — which also has a spiritual dimension. Add to the religious dimension a sense of nationalism, a sense of bruised cultural ego which the Islamic world has suffered in recent decades (European colonialism of ancestral Islamic lands, the creation of Israel, endemic political corruption and inequities) and you have prime conditions for cultivating “global jihad”. Note that poverty and lack of education in themselves do NOT breed terror — you don’t see even a remotely similar scale and frequency attacks nor the level of organization of terror groups outside the Islamic world, and there is plenty of poverty in Latin America, non-Muslim Africa, non-Muslim Asia, and so forth…
I guess there is the possibility of two completely dishonest, disingenuous, amoral twats coming around at once and “arguing†in precisely the same manner

“It would make a fascinating study to compare two numbers: the number of people killed every year by Muslims for the offense of not being Muslim, and the number of Muslims killed every year by non-Muslims for the offense of being Muslim.
And, maybe, a third number: the number of Muslims killed every year by other Muslims for the offense of not being good enough Muslims, or the wrong type of Muslim.”
========================================
We could track a fourth number, if you’re up for it: the number of (always unfulfilled!) grim predictions of “violent anti-Muslim backlash” by Islamists in the West who just cannot comprehend why we don’t retaliate for these Islamic terrorist attacks by randomly massacring Muslims-in-general. (After all, that’s what their delightful prophet Mohammed would have done…)

You wingers keep complaining about people dying, like it’s bad or something. Killing people is only wrong when wingers and American soldiers do it.
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Thanks, whoever you are.
