Impressive, how Modi is turning into a Statesman for now .. just hope this new Modi is not just for public relations and is sincere in wanting peace between Pakistan and India.
BTW, does anyone note that not one single act of " terrorism " took place during this entire ceremony? Looks like Shiv and company decided to lay low for awhile.....

@Goga Nalaik
Thanks for your input, I'm actually referring to Modi's oath taking ceremony in New Delhi which was oddly was NOT tarnished by a single "terrorist" incident from across India's Western border. My implication is aimed at Shiv Sena and the RSS who are behind 90% of India's terrorism and have the gall to blame Pakistanis for their own homegrown instigated operations,ie, 2008 Mumbai attacks just to name just a few.
A logical POV is if such an entity as "Islamic" terrorists even exists ( who btw are not Muslims in any sense of the faith), then the first target would've been this ceremony in New Delhi, where a rabid anti-Islamic, anti-Pakistani Hindu extremist is at center stage. It's quite obvious Shiv Sena and RSS aren't about to be spoilers at their own newly minted Emperor's long awaited induction ceremony. So I ask again, where are the so called terrorists?

@DEVIL seriously it amazes me to hear such ramblings from the likes of educated people such as you. when will you ever give up such delusional theories and start believing in facts for what they are....................................that will be the first step of the course correction that pakistan so deperately requires and for its own good. The whole world knows who orchestrated the attacks in mumbai in nov 2008 apart from a few deluded individuals such as you.

@DEVIL this is not pakistan...where every single day bomb blast is like morning breakfast, banned terrorists are living freely in pakistan. The world knows where the so called terrorists exists. Remember the incident of abbottabad U'll get your answer and for your kind information if you r living outside of your country then go through youtube and you can find the Amir Ajmal Kasab interview; whats the whole world is watching.
