Port of Entry - India (a reality)

Location: Trivandrum Immigration Center (Trivandrum Airport)
Cast: A Dubai Based Hotel Bar Owner Mr.A (Indian) -and- Egypt Immigrant holding British passport Mr.B -and- few security staff and travelers

Story - Mr.A & Mr.B traveling in emirates flight from Dubai to Trivandrum. They abused and misbehaved with fellow passengers. Women were targeted. Flight landed in Trivandrum International Airport. At the immigration counter they had received preference to get immigration clearance first. Other fellow passengers who traveled in same flight objected for this special treatment. Security staff came into picture. Mr.A & Mr.B had assaulted security officer and brought him down on the floor. Immigrations counter operations was disrupted. Alerted local police station; police appeared in the scene. Immigration cleared and police took them to nearest police station. Police questioned them; after few minutes lawyer came. Police released them with minor charges. Intelligence Bureau questioned state police/govt for this negligence. Enquiry started.

My mistake; this is not a story. This is a real thing happened this week in India (Trivandrum - Port of Entry).

If it would have been in any other countyy (lets say an Indian in place of Mr.A & Mr.B) like in USA, or UK or Any Gulf Country or Europe or Canada or Russia.

Will he be alive to get immigration clearance in first place for hitting security staff and for disrupting immigrations work or will he be in the destination country to enjoy his business or pleasure trip?

Government must understand one thing; if you are strong, then India is strong; if India is strong then Indians are strong ! We are not idiots. A shame for India and for Indians!

By the way; Why gods own country needs all these security and immigration process; isn’t it? After all Kerala is owned and looked after by gods! Nothing to worry!

Indiscriminate Human Atrocity

Israel action in Gaza is a real indiscriminate human atrocity.

World body cannot just sit tight lipped. UN watch dogs are just mere spectators even after 21 days of this kind of cruelty. Diplomatic pressure is not enough.

Horrific and collective punishment will affect innocent lives. Children’s are buried under fire power of Israelites. Israel is not above UN; they have complete right to defend their country that doesn't mean they can unleash cruelty on innocent people.

This world will not forget this disproportional action of Israel.
This is unjustified.

Audacity of Hope

Audacity of Hope

I was traveling from LA to India.

After boarding the flight from LA; I started reading book which was given to me as a gift by one of my friend. The book was written by Elected President Barrack Obama. His thoughts on reclaiming American Dream!

I was not reading for just sake of reading; when I turn each page I was able to feel the humiliation of his; who was struggling to reclaim American Dream!

Page 3 – “You realize don’t you, that the political dynamics have changed,” he said as he picked at his salad.

“What do you mean”, I asked, knowing full well what he meant. We both looked down at news paper beside him. There, on the front page, Osama Bin Laden. “Hell of thing isn’t it?” he said, shaking his head. “Really bad luck; you can’t change your name, of course. Voters are suspicious of that kind of thing”. (Obama and his friend, a media consultant)

Page 10 – I am suspicious of using government to impose anybody’s religious beliefs-including my own-on non believers. Furthermore I am a prisoner of my own biography.

Page 11 – I reject a politics that is based on racial identity………

Page 210 – and then he (Mr.Keyes) added for good measure that because I was not a descendants of slaves….

Page 211 – “This is a disaster!”…….”What about white guys!!!” (On hearing Obama to be selected for Illinois)

He has set a big task for himself (in this book and for his life). He was born to Harvard-educated Kenyan economist and a white mother from Kansas, and was raised by his white maternal grandparents. He wrote his first book in 1955 - Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance. A much unusually frank document for his current position. Blunt write ups about his feelings.

Acting alone among contemporary politicians, He proved great potential to break the current red–blue impasse and construct a new politics that is progressive. Barack Obama have to demonstrate more courage than he has.

He requires audacity not only of hope –but- of action.

Show American people and the world in concrete ways what his imagined America/World will look like. Phenomenon may be the right word; if Barack Obama can do that.
