This is how we believe and perceive and quite rightly so based on our religion and based on our humanity that killing people like this will not get your any where. But our friends- politicians do not I am afraid. For them its not what they save but what they make out in terms of popularity to appease themselves, to prolong their grip on these nameless souls, to extend their bank balances and so forth.

This goes back to the fundamental question that if we cannot change these politicians, then we must change ourselves. If the process of democracy allows us to vote and bring them into power, then we must be strong enough to see this and take action accordingly. But I am afraid we do not. We forget in our misery these question, these collective questions and our responsibility. If the process of democracy does not allow us to fulfill this obligation due to us not being educated, due to us tied by this corrupt party culture and the rest, then why is there a need for democracy in the first place?

my Lord, wont you help them to understand
when someone takes the life of an innocent man
well they've never really won, cuz all they've really done
is set the soul free - where it's supposed to be

for those we lose before before their time
I pray their souls will find the light
i know that the day will surely come when His will be done
ya you're never break my faith

We are all to be blamed for allowing ourselves to go to such level that there is no differention between right and wrong, no civic sense,and most importantly the attitude towards our leaders. It is with this blind devotion we follow our leaders never realising that it is these people for last sixty years who have never admitted their failures, never appreciated anything good, always relying on the "blame culture", always keen to get their interests served first through greed and power. We as a nation die every day for different reasons - lack of resources, disease, hunger, road accidents, bomb blasts, political indifferences then might as well die for a cause which will bring an end to all this - the elimination of feudalism, corruption and this constant interference from the army. That means, a revolution.......where we can rise above our cultural differences, languages and demand through protests or through any peaceful means at all levels. Why is it we have to looks at these people with admiration when they have blood on their hands.
