INDIAN INTELLIGENCE SERVICES: How intelligent are they actually to let MUMBAI happen??

The hot question of the time is not 'WHY' did the MUMBAI massacre happened but 'HOW' it happened? We all are in know of the fact that we do not share very good terms with our neighbours and hence asking a question that WHY such a thing happened does not stand an answer....

But the question which is continuously nipping me is that how intelligent our INTELLIGENCE Forces are??? In the post operation analysis, the revelations are shocking and unbelievable!!!!

Terrorists staying in hotel rooms, working in Taj in the crew, setting up of a control room inside the hotel, Marine wing of LeT training them, carrying heavy ammunition inside the hotel.. all these things do not look realistic if we trust our INTELLIGENCE services... But the sad part of the story is.. IT'S ALL TRUE!!!!!!

Does that mean that the people who are responsible to take care of the citizens of this nation are not very serious about this?? Is it that they do not value the lives of the innocent people of the country who are paying heavy cost for the failure of our bureaucratic system???

I believe that our system has always been asking for a wake up call... but why do 183 people had to loose their lives to make these irresponsible people to wake up???? And I am not at all sure that they actually are awake even after all this!!!

India is in such a sorry state today that we are not feeling safe in our houses.. we do not know what is going to happen tomorrow.. where is the next bomb going to explode... where is the next shootout going to happen... and all this is with due thanks to our incompetent Intelligence Services.

These INTELLIGENCE SERVICES have FAILED to perform their duties and common man is paying the cost for that.. sadly, with his life....

Now, common Indian have to come forward.. take charge of his own life and give it back hard to the face of terror.... We cannot just let ANYONE decide our fate...

INDIA: Crushed, Crippled and sabotaged yet again; is there any end to it??

I do not actually understand as to why do we, INDIANS let any tom, dick and harry to walk into our homes easily, create ruckus, kill our loved ones and then walk away unpunished???

Have we lost the true sense of being a nation with the greatest history of HEROISM in the god damn world?? Or should we start to believe that all those HEROES we always have known and believed to exist at some point in past are all stories, penned in books???

NO..., at least I am not ready to accept that!!!!

We have sacrificed a lot, have tolerated a lot,,, but this time, its not just about that.. These handful of scoundrels shall not be allowed anything on this holy earth to take charge of our lives.. They cannot be let loose to move freely amongst our people and kill anyone, anywhere, any time!!!

The seekers of POWER, sitting up somewhere in the sound proof cells of theirs' should think beyond their selfish chase for money and power and come out in open against such barbaric acts on mankind; precisely on INDIANS...

Its time now that we work towards putting an end to this ever existent tale of terror, which is striking us unnoticed anytime of our lives.. and it doesn't cost these evil sons anything, but yes, if it costs something, it is to us and its our peace, our serenity, our culture, our growth, our future... Are we ready to accept such a bargain??? I say NO.. and its not just my voice but am sure I am sounding the entire nation here.. the entire INDIAN community, which wants to stand up against this engulfing face of terror and wants to get rid of this...

We want our peace and freedom back... It was the martyrs of the freedom fight, who gave their lives to make us breathe in a free INDIA.. then how can we be so coward to give away that freedom in hands of a few Animals????...

All I solicit now, at this point is an open retaliation, let it be an open attack, a WAR against the guardians of these evil forces. The people who are sabotaging us every time we lend a hand to settle things should be brought down on their knees and should be destroyed to their core...

Lets not forget, if America & England can retaliate so strongly to just one attack on their land and people and de-root the very cause of the terror; we INDIANS have seen a lot already and so our response should be much stronger and gritty...

Its time that we rise against this face of terror and let the generations to come open their eyes in a secure, safe and prosperous INDIA...

And I personally believe, without an ounce of doubt that we can... "YES, WE CAN"

Food for thought: Short Management stories ...

1. The CROW and THE RABBIT:

A crow was sitting on a tree, doing nothing all day. A small rabbit saw the crow, and asked him, “Can I also sit like you and do nothing all day long?”

The crow answered: ” Sure, why not.”

So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the crow, and rested. All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Management Lesson: To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up.

2. THREE MONKEYS: HOW THE CORPORATE CULTURE IS FORMED!

When I hear about culture issues from executives I always relate a favorite anecdote about how organizational culture is formed.
There are three monkeys standing in line in a cage, and above the third monkey there is a bunch of bananas. The third monkey naturally reaches for the sweet treats, and as he takes one, the other two monkeys are drenched with water. So they immediately start at the third monkey who is busily munching on his favorite food. But he doesn.t realize what.s happening, so he reaches for another banana and the other two are deluged.
By the time the third monkey has eaten the bunch of bananas, the other two are quite annoyed. So in steps the scientist, and replaces the third monkey with a new monkey. He espies the bananas and as he stretches out his arm, he is attacked by the other two monkey.
The new monkey doesn.t quite understand why, but quickly stops going after the bananas. Some time passes and the scientist comes back and takes one of the drenched monkeys and replaces him. This new monkey again goes for the bananas and the other two attack him.
Then the scientist replaces the third of the original monkeys, with a new one. This new monkey is immediately attacked, and has no idea why. Even when the banana/water system is disabled, and another monkey introduced, he is attacked immediately.
And if the scientist keeps repeating the experiment, the two monkeys in the cage attack the new ape being introduced, though nobody can remember why, its just the way it is.

3. GREAT VALUE IN DISASTER: (That's my favourite one: INDEED)

In 1914 Thomas Edison’s factory in West Orange, New Jersey, was virtually destroyed by fire. Although the damage exceeded $2 million, the buildings were insured for only $238,000 because they were made of concrete and were thought to be fireproof. Much of Edison’s life work went up in smoke and flames that December night. At the height of the fire, Edison’s 24-year-old son, Charles, searched frantically for his father. He finally found him, calmly watching the fire, his face glowing in the reflection, his white hair blowing in the wind.

“My heart ached for him,” said Charles. “He was 67 — no longer a young man — and everything was going up in flames. When he saw me, he shouted, “Charles, where’s your mother?” When I told him I didn’t know, he said, ‘Find her. Bring her here. She will never see anything like this as long as she lives.’”

The next morning, Edison looked at the ruins and said, “There is great value in disaster. All our mistakes are burned up. Thank God we can start anew.”

Three weeks after the fire, Edison managed to deliver the first phonograph.
