HAVE SOME COURAGE THE "BRAVE QUARTET"
First things first let me confess that I am strongly aginst unfettered freedom of any kind, although freedom is a wonderful thing but like each and every good thing excess of freedom is problematic to say the least.So if any body thinks I'm a supporter of state regulations,restrictions on each and everything then he is mistaken, I do not support such kind of regulations but at the same time I believe that people should be much more restrained and responsible in their public dealings.

I am totally shocked, rather amused by the lack of guts shown by the quartet of Hari Kunzru, Ruchir Joshi, Amitava Kumar and Jeet thayil , who , i have learnt have left Jaipur to prevent being arrested. What amazes me most is the fact that these people were "hailed" by the so called liberal media, muslim bashers(like uma bharti), arm chair intellectuals(which are available two for every penny in india) and many pseudo-liberal muslims for their "courage", "bravery" and "show of solidarity" with the living satan who answers to the name of salman rushdie. would this stoking of fire by utterly irresponsible, provocative and uncalled for bravado and then running away uned cover while leaving others to face the music for their consequences be called bravery, perhaps to the pseudo-liberal media like TOI, Hindu etc it would but not for me. I would have had a semblance for their integrity although not their cheap gimmicks had they stayed back and faced arrest for their acts but with this act they have shown that they are as much of cowards and hypocrites like their guru salman rushdie, who incidentally also wrote a heap of bullshit just to become an instant celebrity and "master of words". unfortunately for the west anti muslim who abuses islam and its revered figures is a "champion" of liberty, "islamic renaissance", "progressive and what not the list is quiet long but just to remind you living satan salman rushdie, tasleema nasreen, ayaan ali hirsi are just some of the people who have found comfort in west's lap after provocating muslims in the worst possible manner. My advice for these people and their supporters is to stop being hypocritical and have the guts to face some trouble for your acts , after all gandhi did go underground when the British police was looking for him he readily surrendered and chose to spend time in prison rather then running away similarly mohammad ali(cassius clay) chose to be stripped of his heavyweight title rather then compromise on his stand.

P.S: GROW UP you arm chair itellectuals and pseudo-libertarians, your gimmicks and hypocrisy have only stripped you of any sympathy however unfounded you may have got.
