Terror returns to America

The bomb blast at Boston Marathon Finish line killed three and injured 176. It was a heinous, terror and cowardly act. Boston bomb blast gives clear signal of returning the terror to US. It is no longer sensitized to terror as it was made after 9/11. The terror has returned to America after 12 years. There was no terror act in America after 9/11, which is one of the biggest terror attacks in the world. Two powerful bombs exploded near the finish line of the marathon on Monday afternoon in Boston, as one of this city's most cherished rites of spring was transformed from a scene of cheers and sweaty triumph to one of screams and carnage. Among the three dead was a child, who had been watching the marathon with his family. Two congressional officials were briefed by federal authorities separately. They said that at least one bomb, and probably both, were pressure cookers filled with shrapnel — nails, metal pellets and ball bearings — that had been packed in a bag or backpack of some kind and placed on the ground, perhaps to look like trash or someone's personal bag. The modus operandi in the attack adopted by the terrorists changes according to their convenience. They adopt different types of executing their heinous crimes to hoodwink the police and intelligence agencies. Boston terror act will be investigated by the Amerrican premier investigating agency the FBI. Boston terror attack must be condemned by one and all. Terrorism is against humanity. The time has come to act together by the entire world to wipe out the scourge of terrorism from the face of the earth. After 9/11, the US had taken hardest of steps to wipe out terrorism from at least US. Its unilateral action and highhandedness in approach in nabbing the perpetrators of 9/11 had stunned the world. The entire world surprised when the US declared unilaterally the war on terror and made Pakistan, where terror has taken deep root, a frontline ally in coalition against terrorism. At last after 10 years of 9/11 in 2011, the US killed the chief conspirator of 9/11 and America’s most wanted terrorist Osama bin Laden in Pakistan. As long as the US continues to connive at Pakistan's role in perpetrating terror all over the world, the terror acts would continue to take place in different parts of the world. The US acts against terrorism only when it is beaten. Terrorism cannot be dealt with selective method. There must be level playing field in dealing with terror. US takes no serious move to act against terrorism when it takes place in India at frequent intervals. India has borne the brunt of Pak-sponsored terrorism most. There took place a motor cycle explosion in Bangalore on Wednesday outside the BJP office in which 16 were hurt. It is expected to be a terror attack. It must be equated with any other terror act taking place anywhere in the world. It is not that the terror act that takes place in the US only should be dealt with sternly. There must be a concerted effort everywhere in dealing with terror very stringently.
