BBC News - China children 'hacked to death' in new school attack

BBC News - China children 'hacked to death' in new school attack: "- Sent using Google Toolbar"

I don't wish to participate in any 'intellectual' discussion to find out what is wrong. I just see that China as a Nation, is suffering a grave mental illness and something needs to be done about it. Else imagine where it could lead.

It is really fearfully strange to see so much hatred, anger and dislike towards young innocent children. Whatever the reason be, I view it as serious mental illness. Anyone who reads my comment, would appreciate a feedback.

Holy F****** cow. This guys need to be contained in a safe facility on the line of Guantanamo bay. What are they upto. Insanity needs to stop. I hope the Muslim community will use wisdom over sentiments to act on this one. Utterly insulting. I guess there will come a day when they will say women have no right to live so kill them when they are born. GOD help us from your so called followers.

This is indeed a Historic day. The spirit of 'Globalness' of Internet now truly lives. I feel proud to witness and be part of this Historic moment.

This is strange and intriguing. If records were deliberately ordered to be trashed, then it amounts to hiding some information that should not be known. Dark side to India's glorious heroic big brother kind of help to Bangladesh?

I wonder if we ever find the truth.

'Pakistanis are posing as Indians to escape discrimination' - US - World - The Times of India

'Pakistanis are posing as Indians to escape discrimination' - US - World - The Times of India: "- Sent using Google Toolbar"

As an Indian, I won't laugh about it. I have no hatred against Pakistan, a bit of annoyance, yes, as it is the breeding ground for all sorts of violent trouble. In past it was only India that suffered and the world did not even cared about it. Now since the trouble has reached the shores of US, the entire world is noticing, commenting and criticizing.

I fully sympathize with Pakistanis, in that matter anybody, when they get discriminated for not being white. It is a shame on humanity that in 2010 we still have such barbaric practices. It is shame that a someone has to pass themselves as someone else just for the fear of being discriminated. It is a shame.

India has no middle class? - India - The Times of India

India has no middle class? - India - The Times of India

Honestly I am confused. I did not understand the article and the reasoning behind it. Especially how India will not have a middle class is what I did not get. I really wonder with so much confusions, do these economists themselves understand what the hell they are speaking?

Can't they simply say ... $/day for x days = Middle class or whatever class they wish to define. Make a simple table. That's all. Anybody who can explain me this one, I would highly appreciate. Thank you.

BBC News - Indian man 'survives without food or water for decades'

BBC News - Indian man 'survives without food or water for decades'

That makes me go 'hmmm'. Defies any known understanding of human body and life. I cannot, instantly accept this, however I am open to know more, to find reality. However this should not be the pretext for millions of poor people going hungry. It is indeed ironic and confusing too. If one can live that long without food and water, then there will be no poverty in the world. There won't be any control left to manipulate human lives. The fundamental of surviving is no longer a necessity, then I guess all the big corporations, religions, governments will come down tumbling. Wishful thinking.

Intriguing nevertheless. I wish this story is followed up or at least I find some references elsewhere on the Internet.

Mobile milestone: India close to ringing in 600 million subscribers - India Business - Biz - The Times of India

We definitely beat any nation, except China by sheer power of numbers. Sadly these very numbers are also the biggest problem for India. We may jolly well claim the highest number of PCs in the world, however when it comes to per capita or pc/people ratio, we are lagging. Then again, I feel this won't be for too long. India definitely is going through change. Just because of her size we don't notice the changes immediately.

Little has changed on the route Kasab took - India - The Times of India

My heart cries at such apathy shown by Indians. I am not blaming any one particular. The Nation as whole, has lost the spirit, self respect and sense of being a Nation. Just too sad.
