LIFE is a God-given gift. How elated and thankful one feels when a child is born! One cannot understand how a person is brainwashed in a way as to make him give away his life by killing himself and many others for what is termed “a better and blissful after life”. It defies logic.One has to live his or her life in this earth and do whatever good he or she can do for the wellbeing of the mankind. Radicalism leads one nowhere. If the Islamic cleric who heads the mosque was arrested while trying to escape in a burqa, it shows what a coward he is. As the saying goes, a ship should have only one captain. In the same way, a country should have only one leader; and the rule of law should be followed by all. If everyone starts framing their own rules for others, it only leads to chaos, as is currently witnessed in Pakistan.
