The bombing of the High Court in Delhi has again shown that the government has absolutely no intentions of improving our intelligence and police. The CBI is busily finding nothing against Mr Raja just as it found nothing in the Bofors case. Its main business seems to be arresting present and past members of the BJP even in purely Congress scams such as the Commonwealth Games and cash for votes scams. Improving the investigating and intelligence gathering efficiency of the police against terrorism could also be used to investigate crimes and, since politicians are criminals, would result in the arrest and prison for the majority of politicians. So CCTV cameras are not installed, no effort is made to gather intelligence on various terrorist groups in the country and police lack event the most basic training and equipment. However, the main reason politicians do nothing after repeated terrorist attacks is because it is in their interest not to do anything. Terrorism gives them the excuse for Z plus security. They are able to impose more restrictions on the people such as having to provide photographs and address proofs for opening bank accounts or obtaining a phone. A Unique Identity Card is being made mandatory for every citizen. Blackberry is being asked to provide source codes for its messaging service so that snoops can violate our privacy at will. A person is responsible for any " objectionable " posting or comment on his internet site. Terrorists provide the excuses for more and more draconian laws restricting basic freedoms for ordinary citizens. This increases the powers of the politicians and liberates them to commit any crime. Traitors.
