ArunAnto 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2006 A forwaded mail i got A letter to the Terrorist Dear Terrorist, Even if you are not reading this we don't care. Time and again you tried to disturb us and disrupt our life - killing innocent civilians by planting bombs in trains, buses and cars. You have tried hard to bring death and destruction, cause panic and fear and create communal disharmony but everytime you were disgustingly unsuccessful. Do you know how we pass our life in Mumbai? How much it takes for us to earn that single rupee? If you wanted to give us a shock then we are sorry to say that you failed miserably in your ulterior motives. Better look elsewere, not here. We are not Hindus and Muslims or Gujaratis and Marathis or Punjabis and Bengaliies. Nor do we distinguish ourselves as owners or workers, govt. employees or private employees. WE ARE MUMBAIKERS (Bombay-ites, if you like). We will not allow you to disrupt our life like this. On the last few occassions when you struck (including the 7 deadly blasts in a single day killing over 250 people and injuring 500+ in 1993), we went to work next day in full strength. This time we cleared everything within a few hours and were back to normal - the vendors placing their next order, businessmen finalizing the next deals and the office workers rushing to catch the next train. (Yes the same train you targetted) Fathom this: Within 3 hours of the blasts, long queues of blood donating volunteers were seen outside various hospital, where most of the injured were admitted. By 12 midnight, the hospital had to issue a notification that blood banks were full and they didn't require any more blood. The next day, attendance at schools and office was close to 100%, trains & buses were packed to the brim, the crowds were back. The city has simply dusted itself off and moved one - perhaps with greater vigour. We are Mumbaikers and we live like brothers in times like this. So, do not dare to threaten us with your crackers. The spirit of Mumbai is very strong and can not be harmed. Please forward this to others. U never know, by chance it may come to hands of a terrorist in Afghanistan, Pakistan or Iraq and he can then read this message which is specially meant for him!!! With Love, From the people of Mumbai (Bombay) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ashoksoft 83 Report post Posted July 13, 2006 awsome mail .... guess what, i hardly ever bother to fwd a mail. But this hits the list of forwards!!! Awsome ! .. actually that is the plain fact! Minutes after the blast, you should have seen the lending hands and shoulders that was abreast at the site of the blasts .... vendors giving vada pav and water (their daily bread - to those who were jostled). People who had pretty much nothing with them (slum dwellers from near the sion hospital, bandra and santa cruz) rushing to provide whatever support they could. People forming a beeline to give blood for those whom they had never known - except by the title of a fellow mumbaikar.. And well ... looking at the kind of support and bounce back we've seen, I guess the a**h**e who had threatened to write in Readers Digest that Mumbai was the most rudest city, needs to rethink his poweress of analysis. (rimwebian) Pretender was travelling late, and was just out of Matunga when the blast happened. One of my dearest friends (who works with the HR in Taj) had a narrow escape - she was to travel with 2 of her office mates in the same compartment, but her boyfriend had dropped by - and she went on the bike... only to learn minutes later that there was a blast in the same compartment... and that her friends were no more. The acts of cowardice exhibited is unparalleled. The terrorists have been wearing bangles on their hands, we're ever forgiving, but the innocent souls that have been mauled to an unceremonious death will ensure that at least now mumbai might consider a venegence - that too of the highest order (considering no babu bigshots have a hand in the attacks) ! cheers ashok Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

linuxguy 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2006 hehe, do you guys see the completely different reaction that we had in 1993 and now in 2006? In 1993 we had riots and stuff but in 2006 we stand united! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abhay 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2006 (edited) hmm i think its just the result of telecom revolution and media situation in India today in 1993 even if people were out and helping other people we wouldn't come to know now through Internet , news channels we can see it actually happening Edited July 13, 2006 by abhay Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
