Charlie hebdo's caricatures once again brought to life amid mourning . it’s been a shocking state of affairs for a
country which believes in freedom of expression and
has glorified its essence. decades have passed since such a grave
incident happened in France . Charlie hebdo’s cartoons mirrored free
expression albeit a twisted one . although his cartoons lampooning prophet
mohammad may not find enough takers (
rather some incensed souls) but they still
came under the ‘blurry’ ambit of free expression. The barbaric response of these
so called mercenaries of islam is beyond
condemnable, how can one rationalise such callous killings in response to mere
spoofing? However, in the heat of the moment , proclaiming a final war on
terror is insanity which would eventually isolate people on religious lines
and that is exactly what those bigots intended. Usage
of surgical strikes to take out heads of these groups cannot serve as a
response either . a prolonged calibrated
action aimed at bringing back people from the gorges of religious extremism to the
asylum of moderation is the need of the hour . without an iota of doubt it
involves perennial indulgence in the pursuit of promulgating a modern
renaissance , where sticking to the cause in the longer run would be the key , countering
those fanatics and zealots along the way ….
