Terrorism Hits Hindu Shrines in India

Hmmmm. Idols blown up? I wonder who could be behind this? Truly a baffling mystery. CBN:

Several explosions rocked a railway station and Hindu temple in the northeast Indian holy city of Varanasi on Tuesday, killing at least four people, police said.

Authorities were trying to determine what caused the blasts, one of which occurred inside a train stopped at the city's railway station, said policeman Mohammed Hashmi. He did not know if there were any casualties.

A witness, Sunil Yadav, said a blast also occurred near the ticket counter in the crowded station waiting room. He described a scene of confusion, with people running and screaming, but he could not say whether anyone was killed.

Another blast shook the Sankat Mochan temple near dusk, when the shrine is ordinarily crowded with devout Hindus making a nightly offering to the monkey-god Hanuman, said Madan Mohan Pande, a police inspector in Varanasi.

He said at least four people were killed and 12 were wounded, but Indian TV stations reported that at least seven people had died.

India television channels reported that none of the idols in the temple were damaged in the blast.

ROPMA.

1 OMG! It must be Hindu oppression of the brown people! What are the root causes? Did Ghandi's imperialism set the stage for this years ago?

2 Its HINDU Temples and Shrines that were damaged. Pakistan based Islamic terrosist agency, Lashkar is behind it, as we will see in the days to come. Hindu Oppression of Brow people? What do u mean? Hindus themselves are brown you redneck! Gandhi has influenced US Martin Luther King too. He set the stage for equal rights in the US years ago. Dont prove your ignorance by writing whatever you can...please do so in rural Texas, not in mainstream media read by educated people.

9 Got more than a Phd, huh? let me take a second to bow before the enlightened one, as a resident of Texas, I'm not sure what one of those is, I often hear people talking about them while sipping a latte, and discussing hemp basket weaving at Starbucks, is it some sort of elite hippy coffee drinking club?

10 I get served my coffee and breakfast tacos down at the Bear Moon Cafe by a waiter with one of them fancy "Phds" who says he's an authority on "theology of imagination" or something hifelutin like that. Real smart fella.

13 Us Texicans know what Phd stands for. Piled high and deep. Now hows that for a Texas definition? I have found that definition to be right more often than it has been wrong. No offense, CK.

16 No matter where muslims go, no matter how other people behave toward them, they always end up using violence because they are animals, and we must kill every one of them before it's over.

17 This attitude, and exactly this attitude is responsible for what you get if you step out of US. Can you name 10 Countries that you can go without getting in to trouble? Hate and sarcasm yield nothing. Mockery and bellittleing will fetch you nothing. That might be the only solace you get, in your small beer drinking, flag waving, myphobic world. And yes,it really is a fact that I actually take 4-5 hours on my TvIo as I dont have much time to waste an hour or to check crap round the clock. Now, PhD meaning has been changed too. Good to know. Majority of the good americans bare the image of US centric retards just because of 1-2% of illeducated fanatics. Good day guys, C.K

Posted by: CK at March 08, 2006 06:38 AM (T5dqz)

18 To see what these terrorist muslim fanatics are scared of, we just need to see what they use to scare innocent humanbeings......they understand only one language, and thats violence. And thats what they get in return, and thats what they shall get. Israels policy of NO ONE WHO TAREGTS OUR CIVILIANS ARE SAFE is THE WAY, for HINDUS, JEWS, CHRISTIANS...alike. Thats my opinion.

Posted by: CK at March 08, 2006 06:51 AM (T5dqz)

19 CK, shut up, nobody here buys your idiotic, semi-educated, heavily-indoctrinated crap. Go back to reading Mein Kampf you liberal moron.

Posted by: Improbulus Maximus at March 08, 2006 07:27 AM (0yYS2)

20 That book is for intolerant, narrow visioned and racist retards. Not for educated ones. We have better things to do in life then to mess around with someones way of life or try to control everyone elses life. WHEN all else fails(it does, anyways), blame liberals. It is just pointed out in USA today that 79% of all the Academia is Liberal. What does that mean? When you get education(not in a church or a madarsaa or a temple-BUT in a UNIVERSITY of a CENTER FOR HIGHER LEARNING) your mental horizons grow and you tend to see what the world is about, rather than sit with like minded people and be scared of the world. P.S :Even liberals know how to get personal you RETARD.

22 Education eh? So that's what they're calling it nowadays. I have yet to meet a liberal of any academic stripe that I can't argue into the ground without using anything other than pure logic and rhetoric, whereas liberals always run from an argument by using ad hominem attacks and explaining that I "just can't understand". Liberals are idiots and must all be killed for the good of humanity.

Posted by: Improbulus Maximus at March 09, 2006 07:58 AM (0yYS2)

23 Relax dude, there is no difference between you and the islamic millitants I guess. If killing and genocide are the only solutions for everything, then I guess you and I would not have been here in the first palce. May be the reason they run away is you, as they might have better things to do. You havent met a liberal who can argue some sense in to you? That shows how many educated people you have met! Violence can be answered by violence, just like US bombed Afghanistan. Violence can be forced just based on misconception, just like in Iraq. Violence can be preached without reason or logic, just like IMPROBULUS MAXIMUS. Good one, and GOOD DAY.

24 Wow, that was soooooo insightful and profound, and well argued to boot! I think I'll go burn my Tao Te Ching now, since I've sat at the feet of a true master. Idiot.

30 Whats the difference in how islam fights wars and hindus fight wars, islamic jihads also have balls and can fight and don't run hindus attack with mobs then run when having to fight like men, hears whats happining to christians in india Christian Institutions Face Increasing Number of Atrocities and Dacoities in Northern India Yesu Christ Convent of the Franciscan Clarist nuns at Baghpat, Uttar Pradesh, 50 kilometres from New Delhi, was looted, the Chapel desecrated and several nuns, novices and lay teachers were beaten up in the early hours of Thursday, 24t-h September. An armed gang of men smashed tl-ie Tabernacle, threw the Hosts onto the floor and tore out the Cross from the Chapel wall. After beating up and disabling the security guard the armed men terrorised the 30 nuns, novices and women teachers for three hours. Contents of every single room had been turned upside down, almirahs broken open and the clothes of the inmates strewn on the floor. The dacoits took away Rs. 15,000 and a gold ornament from one of the staff members, locked up the nuns inside the Chapel and went way. Police Inspector Bhagwan Singh Shrivastava, who is investigating the case together with a team of detectives and forensic experts, has assured the press that he was confident of nabbing the dacoits soon. The Inspector also said that despite the desecration carried out in the Chapel, he "did not think that this was a case of right-wing Hindu fundamentalist violence against the Christian community'. The Franciscan Clarist nuns run a school in the Convent premises. From the fact that the nuns had drawn Rs. 15,000 from the Bank the previous day, the assumption of Inspector Shrivastava that robbery could be the only motive behind this assault gives credibility to his statement that there was no anti-Christian sentiment behind this dastardly crime. The nuns also have confirmed that there was no sexual harrassment of any of the inmates. The Police suspect that the dacoits might have had a contact man who knew details of the Convent. Forensic experts have lifted some finger prints and are expected to make some breakthrough shortly. Further details of the investigation are awaited. Church attacked in Jhabua District: Four days after the 23rd September rape of four nuns at Navapora village, a Catholic Church at Jamli, 11 kilometres from Pillawad in Jhabua District, was attacked by some unidentified assailants. A group of five or six armed men broke into the church at about 9.00 p.m. and demanded money from the resident priest, Fr. Edward Sorrel, after cutting the telephone and electricity lines. Hearing the shouts of Fr. Sorrel several villagers came running in, and the assailants had no choice but to run away. A case has been registered at the Raipurya Police Station. This is the third attack on nuns, churches and church pro erty in the area within a period of six days. A similar attack took place in the Asha Niketan church premises, Bhopal, where a group of Hindus broke the fencing of the church property alleging it to be an encroachment, though the civil authorities confirm that the property belongs to the Church.

34 i work with hindus usually keep to themselves i don't think they have the balls to pull that kind stunts on churches in america, in india they make up 80% of the mother fucking population thats why it's so easy for them to attack christians who only make up 1%. Yea their probably pissed offf about the english also mostly christians slapping the little stupid hindus around while these damn hindus sat their and took it, now since they can gang up on christians now they thinkg their tough, but wouldn't have the balls to do this shit in europe or north america or anywere else.
