India to give ‘fitting reply’ to terrorism: Gandhi

December 3rd, 2008 - 3:52 pm ICT by IANS ( 1 comment )

Sonia GandhiUri (Jammu and Kashmir), Dec 3 (IANS) Congress president Sonia Gandhi warned Wednesday that India would give a “fitting reply” to terrorism.“We will never surrender to terrorism. We will give a fitting reply to terrorism,” Gandhi told an election rally here close to the Pakistani border.

Gandhi, who is also chairperson of India’s ruling United Progressive Alliance, said the country’s desire to have friendly relations with Pakistan should not be seen as a “weakness”.

“Nobody should consider our friendship with Pakistan as our weakness,” she said, speaking in Hindi.

She added that some forces were trying to “frighten India with terrorism”.

Gandhi’s comments came shortly after Pakistan rejected Indian requests to hand over 20 terrorists and criminals to New Delhi. The Indian request followed the Mumbai terror attacks that left 183 people dead.

    Speaking of terrorism:

    George W. Bush committed hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism (indicated in my blog).

    George W. Bush did in fact commit innumerable hate crimes.

    And I do solemnly swear by Almighty God that George W. Bush committed other hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism which I am not at liberty to mention.

    Many people know what Bush did.

    And many people will know what Bush did—even to the end of the world.

    Bush was absolute evil.

    Bush is now like a fugitive from justice.

    Bush is a psychological prisoner.

    Bush has a lot to worry about.

    Bush can technically be prosecuted for hate crimes at any time.

    In any case, Bush will go down in history in infamy.

    I am not sure where I had read it before, but anyway, it is a linguistically excellent statement, and it goes kind of like this: “If only it were possible to ban invention that bottled up memory so it never got stale and faded.” Oh wait—off of the top of my head—I think the quotation came from my Lower Merion High School yearbook.
