What i dont get is that why people like this exist in the world…buh troo we shud all calm down and think with ah cool hed bout wht 2 do next
I am unable to understand why any body would do that. However I am sure that its an act of Mossad. Who else ? No other organistation in the world wheather Hindu, Muslim , Christian or Bhuddhist etc has the reason to do so except Mossad.
Being an Indian I would strongly condemn such acts and would curse those who are doing such acts. I wish they must also suffer and it should also happen to their own family and loved ones then only they will understand.
