Air strike possible by terroristsBy: danendra jain | Thursday , 4 Dec '08 19:10:04 PM Reply | Forward The Union Government has received intelligence inputs about a possible 9/11 type terror strike from the air. But I am unable to understand why the same message has been circulated through media including Internet, TV and print? What purpose is going to be served by such leakage and such publicity of highly secret intelligence inputs? Are terrorists so much fool that they will strike their terror attack through the same route and at the same place where security arrangement has been tightened? It is rather bitter truth that such publicity of IB inputs cautions terrorists and change their strike point and prompt them to send further misleading emails and spread baseless rumours to confuse the system of safety and security. Terrorists are shrewd enough to befool the government machinery and they know better how to execute their heinous plan.I am therefore of strong conviction that igovernment should not handi over details of intelligence inputs to media ,

Accept FailureBy: Vishnu | Wednesday , 3 Dec '08 19:45:06 PM Reply | Forward I find it hard to believe that if they had definite information, the Navy would not have acted on it. No one wants to take responisbility. All of them are trying to pass the buck. RAW has failed, accept that failure and then try to mend your ways. Passing the buck will not bring the dead back to life.
