The cultural terrorism is the first stage for violent version of the terrorism. As far as Islamic mind set pattern is concerned, these event shows that they are already in influence of CT, and in coming times they will definitely move towards the hardline version of that.
Hope they do understand the operation model of Terror Group and get rid of this terror tactics.

Unfortunately what ever you say is True, but why this particular religious group is so fearful, not just here in India but across the world.why they think world is conspiring against them?

What led them to think so, there is no doubt that there must be negative feedback they get from other religious group, but same is the case with other religion too.

Home they will learn simple lesson of HARMONY.

What are the madrasas?
By Fazlur Rahman Faridi

To Western countries, religious madrasas appear to be the biggest handicap in the transformation and modernization of Islam. According to them these madrasas are ‘centres of violence and riots, terrorists and militant organisations. They are obscurantists. In addition to these madrasas, preachers in mosques preach conservatism and fundamentalism. Taliban were the students of these very madrasas’. The Sangh Parivar of India is also a party to these accusations. Praises showered in America on Gen Musharraf’s recent speech were not without reasons, one of which was his determination to tighten his government’s grip over these madrasas, to selectively destroy the criminals, and crimes which provide succour to ‘jehadi’ groups and to gag the speakers and preachers who preach terrorism.

The politics of cheating, falsehood, dishonesty, perfidy and anti-Islamism has neither the time nor the desire to see what sort of education is provided in Islamic madrasas and what men of character are prepared there and on what a large scale these institutions are engaged in providing welfare and education facilities and services in poor and backward countries. If any one or a few of these become misguided, is it necessary to annihilate all madrasas and such other institutions? There are innumerable terrorist and militant persons and groups in America, Europe and even in our own country whose members have received education in modern colleges, universities and other such institutions. In which religious institutions or madrasas have the Naxalites, responsible for loot and massacre in India, received their education? In which madrasas had the militant tribes of North-eastern states of India received their education? Most of them must have received their education in colleges and universities (which are certainly not Islamic).

Recently, Maoist groups murdered hundreds of people in Nepal. Before that, Nepal’s king and many of his family members were killed by his own son. He was the product of a modern educational institution. In Kosov and Bosnia, thousands of innocent people were murdered and thousands of virgin girls were molested and raped. Those responsible for such crimes were educated people not belonging to madrasas. Do we conclude from the terrorism of these people and organizations that all educational institutions, universities and colleges are centres or breeding grounds of terrorism? Why then these Islamic madrasas only are being singled out for this? Please go through the following extract of a letter written by Khalid Al Muhanna, chief editor of Arab News which he wrote in reply to President Bush’s letter to Saudi Arabia’s minister for education that educational institutions of Saudi Arabia breed terrorism.

‘If the syllabi of schools directly breed violence, USA too should give top priority to completely change the syllabi of its schools.

Charles Whitman was a university student who had murdered his class mates and teachers and had injured many. He was not a student of any Saudi school. School children who had not received their primary education in any school of Riyadh had committed massacres in a Columbine school.

Charles Manson had not received his education in any of Dharama school who believed that Lenin was God and who had resorted to large scale murder in blind obedience and pursuit of his orders’.

Timothy Mcviegh and UNA Bomber had not received their education in madrasas. Thousands of those people who had committed suicide in Guyana in November 1978 in blind obedience of the orders of Rev. Jini Jones were also not the students of religious madrasas. David Koresh, founder of ‘Children of God’, Moses David, L. Ron Hubbard created such groups and classes who indulged in blind faiths, terrorism and suicide etc. None of them had received education in any religious madrasa.

The agents of violence and cruelty in Palestine had never received education in any religious madrasa. Can the activities and facts about these misguided persons be falsified? Should the colleges and universities be closed down because of their such activities and their syllabi should be abolished? The truth is that criticism and attack on madrasas is because of enmity towards Islam. Our enemies and evil wishers know that religious education and religious madrasas are the back bone of Muslims’ religious life and cultural and religious identity and if these are abolished or if these are modernized their religious and cultural identity will be gradually lost.‘They played all their games and used all their tactics but God foiled all their attempts, though their tricks were dangerous and powerful enough to shift mountains’.

Whatever has been stated above should in no case be taken to mean that no healthy and constructive modifications are required in religious madrasas and their syllabi. Islam is a dynamic religious, an eternal movement. It does not preach and promote stagnation and blind obscurantism. Rather, it respects worldly facts. Healthy and constructive changes in religious madrasas is one thing and their comparison with modernity is another thing. q

India uncovers Hindu terror group that carried out bombings blamed on Islamists (source :http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/world-news/india-uncovers-hindu-terror-group-that-carried-out-bombings-blamed-on-islamists-14076306.html)

At least 10 people, including monk and army officer, held

By Andrew Buncombe in Delhi
Sunday, 23 November 2008

India is in something of a state of shock after learning from official sources that its first Hindu terror cell may have carried out a series of deadly bombings that were initially blamed on militant Muslims. The revelation is forcing the country to consider some difficult questions.

At least 10 people have been arrested in connection with several bomb blasts in the Muslim-dominated town of Malegaon in the western state of Maharashtra in September, which left six people dead. But reports suggest that police believe the cell may also have carried out a number of previous attacks, including last year's notorious bombing of a cross-border train en route to Pakistan, which killed 68 people. Among the alleged members of the cell are a serving army officer and a Hindu monk.

Bomb attacks are not uncommon in India – there has been a flurry in recent months – but police usually blame them on Muslim extremists, often said to have links to militant groups based in either Pakistan or Bangladesh. As a result, the recent cracking of the alleged Hindu cell has forced India to face some difficult issues. A country that prides itself on purported religious and cultural toleration – an ambition that in reality often falls short – has been made to ask itself how this cell could operate for so long. India's military, which prides itself on its professionalism, has been forced to order an embarrassing inquiry.

The near-daily drip of revelations from police has also caused red faces for India's main political opposition, the Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), ahead of state polls and a general election scheduled for early next year. The BJP and its prime ministerial candidate, Lal Krishna Advani, have long accused the Congress Party-led government of being soft on terrorism that involved Muslims. However, the BJP has refused to call for a clampdown on Hindu groups, and last week Mr Advani even criticised the police over the way they questioned one of the alleged cell members, a woman called Sadhvi Pragya Singh Thakur.

The Prime Minister, Manmohan Singh, phoned his rival to ask him not to politicise the issue or the investigation. "There is a strong case so let the police do their job," he told Mr Advani. While some commentators have expressed surprise about the discovery of the alleged cell, others have pointed out that there has been growing concern about the possible threat from Hindu extremists. In the summer, two members of a right-wing Hindu group were killed while putting together a bomb, and two other suspected members of the same group died in similar circumstances in 2006.

Meanwhile, senior right-wing leaders have made no secret of their wish that Hindus should form suicide squads to protect themselves against Muslim extremists. Bal Thackeray, leader of a group called the Shiv Sena, which has been responsible for communal and regional violence in Mumbai, wrote recently in the party's magazine: "The threat of Islamic terror in India is rising. It is time to counter the same with Hindu terror. Hindu suicide squads should be readied to ensure the existence of Hindu society and to protect the nation."

Observers say the fact that the police have arrested the alleged cell members amid considerable political pressure suggests the growing professionalism of its security forces. "It's the first Hindu cell and it's the first time Hindus have been shackled and taken to jail," said Professor Dipankar Gupta, a sociologist at Delhi's Jawarlahal Nehru University. "I'm quite pleased with the way the police have done their jobs."
