Bharat Rakshak

The US federal police, the FBI, sent a cable to the BKA two weeks ago noting another possible further attack. A Shiite-Indian group known as the "Saif," or sword, is believed to have engaged in a pact with al-Qaida and to have sent two men to Germany to carry out an attack there.

Both were believed to be traveling to the United Arab Emirates on Nov. 22, where they would be supplied with new travel papers so that they could continue on to Germany. The suspects allegedly already posess visas for Europe's Schengen zone of visa-free travel. The FBI has named Mushtaq Altaf bin-Khadri as the man behind the attack plans.

The man believed to be trying to smuggle the would-be terrorists into Europe is 54-year-old weapons dealer Dawood Ibrahim, who the United Nations believes is a major backer of terrorism. He is considered to be one of the men behind the terror attacks perpetrated in Mumbai in Novembner 2008.

'Maoist rebel bomb' kills seven in India's Bihar state

At least seven people have been killed in north-east India after a bomb thought to have been planted by Maoist rebels exploded, Bihar police say.

The device was found on Saturday, but it was not defused immediately. It was cordoned off and covered with sandbags.

It exploded the following day, while it was being examined by local villagers, a police officer said.

State legislative elections were held in the area on Saturday despite a rebel call for a boycott.

More than 50% of voters turned out in Aurangabad and Gaya districts, the Associated Press news agency reported.

A number of people were also injured in the blast, in Aurangabad district. Police also blamed suspected rebels for another explosion in Gaya district on Saturday which killed two people, the agency said.

Saturday's vote marked the end of month-long multi-phase elections for Bihar's 243-member provincial assembly.

Bihar is one of India's poorest and most corrupt states, though many believe it has begun to shed its reputation for lawlessness, caste violence and banditry.

If someone expresses support for terrorism, oppose them and defeat their ideas intellectually. Sure, nothing wrong in celebrating the intellectual victory.

If someone funds terror, it is the government's job to arrest them and prosecute them.

This is not the same as celebrating the dispatching of some terrorists by security forces. It is about celebrating the tragic accidental death of a human being who happened to propagate an ideology that one found distasteful.

It is everyone's right to propagate their ideology just as others are free to oppose those ideas, label the ideas as distasteful and celebrate when those ideas are defeated intellectually.

But to celebrate the death of someone because they happen to hold certain objectionable ideas is simply sick. Should one have celebrated the passing away of Ustad Bismillah Khan, a Saraswati devotee who also happened to have a picture of Ayatollah Khomeini on his wall?

We know nothing about the kind of person Omar Khalidi was as an individual. Given this, it is extremely distasteful and disgusting to celebrate at the misery of his family. At the end of the day, nobody is perfect and more importantly nobody is completely "right" or "wrong". Everybody has their own karmic baggage.

If someone funds terror, it is the government's job to arrest them and prosecute them. Sure, nothing wrong in celebrating the fact that violence was averted or arrested.

If someone goes a step further and becomes a terrorist, it is upto the army, CRPF and BSF to neutralize them alive or dead. Sure, one will celebrate that a source of violence has been eliminated and innocent people have been saved.

But it seems one folks are celebrating the death of someone simply because they were propagating an objectionable world view. If so, what is the point in espousing supposedly higher "Dharmic" causes over others, whereas in fact the situation is no different from one goon celebrating the elimination of a rival or someone he simply happened to dislike?

For the greater good of the country.. we will celebrate the end of his evil intention
