Ok,now tell me that criminals don’t have religion..But I hardly hear so,when the same activities are done by Muslim names. Why? RSS can shout that they have no link with terror,and I am obliged to believe it,no matter how many of its associates are arrested in several terrorists attacks.. But when a muslim-named party,forget the part that most of them are dead fish and infact do promot radicalism,I am obliged to laugh it off as bluff.. Why?

.

Just like the fact that only a minority of hindus are terrorists,only a minority of muslims too are so. Why can’t people agree on that?Ok,now tell me that “All muslims are not terrorists ,but all terrorists are muslims” and bla bla bla… Well, I know I am  being saddistic  and though I condemn all those criminal acts done by people,no matter which religion they belong to, these blasts and consequent investigations have made me happy that atleast the above quoted statement have been proved wrong.. Now not all terrorists are muslims.. They can be Hindus  and Maoists too…Praise be to India..

Until and unless you take away the baggage of  terrorism, from my religious identity ,please excuse me,I am going to fall into your fallacy of  “Terror has no religion”..
