top 5 of the richest people<\/a> in the world!<\/p>\nWhen money joins power, it is a very deadly mix. \u00a0The cocktail intoxicates one to an extent that nothing can stop him from doing what he thinks right. \u00a0What money can\u2019t save him from, power (or proximity to power) will. \u00a0Sonia Gandhi or Rahul Gandhi don\u2019t have to have power. \u00a0They have their proxies \u2013 P. Chidambaram and Dr. Manmohan Singh. \u00a0They can do all the brain work and create the road for these to plunder the country to their hearts content. \u00a0Of course, they aren\u2019t to be left behind either in the act.<\/p>\n
Headiness of power that comes from political clout + excessive money can probably be very similar to someone having an overpowering control over a woman. \u00a0When raw masculinity stands powerfully over vulnerable Femininity, the viciousness and the evil is remarkable.<\/p>\n
The tragedy of India is the death of femininity \u2013 the feminine quality of the creation. \u00a0We have very little time or love for beauty, grace, creativity or vulnerability anymore. \u00a0The power and money have overpowered everything.<\/p>\n
When a woman is raped and people around do not want to help her or she gets lonely and even deserted, it is a peculiar situation. \u00a0Somehow, the evil asserts itself. \u00a0People know that evil is asserting itself. \u00a0But the reasoning that occurs in one\u2019s mind and in the air is to justify the act and the evil against her. \u00a0Haven\u2019t we seen this too often? \u00a0How does the father of a rapist sleep when he knows that his son has perpetrated such evil? \u00a0Or even those who have been the witnesses?<\/p>\n
It is the same justification and reasoning ability at work. \u00a0Isn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n
When Baba Ramdev, who was fasting and protesting against the plunder of the country was attacked by the battalion and people were lathi-charged. \u00a0Pray, does one remember the rhetoric? \u00a0It was all about Baba Ramdev\u2019s flight in the woman\u2019s clothing or about how he shouldn\u2019t be talking of his political right. \u00a0Okay, okay \u2013 they actually said he shouldn\u2019t talk of politics. \u00a0I challenge someone to point the difference between the two!!<\/p>\n
When Anna Hazare\u2019s entire team has been targeted. \u00a0Has anyone taken a stand in public or in media that this just wouldn\u2019t be allowed? \u00a0The power and money stood tall over powering the simple people who happened to give up their lucrative careers to do what EVERY one should have done.<\/p>\n
One.. by \u2026 one. \u00a0Each one was targeted and virtually raped by media and politicians. \u00a0No word.<\/p>\n
For a few days, such people \u2013 maybe with their limitations \u2013 stood as proxies for our conscience. \u00a0Then they got raped. \u00a0In full public view. \u00a0No one helped, no one raised his voice.<\/p>\n
Instead we all pointed out EXACTLY what the demented crowd does when a woman is raped. \u00a0\u201cWhy was she dressed that way? \u00a0She was inviting a rape.\u201d<\/p>\n
In a woman\u2019s case, despite its obvious lunacy, such questions provoke debate. \u00a0Thank goodness for it. \u00a0But in case of political and social rape by the power which straddles money, media and politics \u2013 we ALL raise the same \u201cProvocative dress\u201d argument\u2026 and our soul remains ok. \u00a0In fact, its hailed as intellectual argument.<\/p>\n
If a woman is in short skirt and looking sexy while she goes to work, how does it matter? \u00a0Should her rights of being treated like a normal human being be squashed?<\/p>\n
If Baba Ramdev sells Yoga or makes millions or even billions and still wants to fight the powers that be against the corruption they have wreaked. \u00a0How does it matter? \u00a0Should his most basic and fundamental rights of a citizen be squashed?<\/p>\n
If Kiran Bedi did make a mistake on her bills, even as she fights for our rights. \u00a0How does it matter? \u00a0Isn\u2019t it enough that she has left a lucrative career already impacted by her outspoken-ness?<\/p>\n
When those who fight on our behalf were and are being targeted, don\u2019t we know that justice has been trampled? \u00a0How much of intelligence does one need to get the play of media and politics?<\/p>\n
So, let us go back to our question \u2013<\/p>\n
How come women continue to get raped repeatedly in Delhi? \u00a0Because it is very easy. \u00a0No one will say anything to the rapist. \u00a0With a few goons and some money, you can rape as many as you want. \u00a0Women in Delhi are like cheap entertainment. \u00a0They will be raped and no one can do anything. \u00a0Because NO ONE HAS DONE ANYTHING!<\/p>\n
A city and a country where every citizen whose rights are raped in full public view doesn\u2019t do anything what will he\/she for someone else??<\/p>\n
Those with power and money know a secret and have an unwritten and un-articulated agenda \u2013 which is very similar to the current expert and wannabe rapists:<\/p>\n
It is easy to rape in this society, if you have power, money and media on your side. \u00a0Not only is it easy, but it is DOWNRIGHT STUPID \u2026 NOT TO RAPE!<\/p>\n
In a society like this \u2013 why shouldn\u2019t one rape? Its easy, its safe, and limited risk must surely give a high.. just as one is a moron if one doesn\u2019t plunder and steal from the Indian citizens \u2013 for, its easy, its safe and the limited risk must surely give a high!<\/p>\n
Even the questions posed to the assaulted woman and assaulted citizens who stand up to corruption are the same \u2013 The way they are, they invited the assault!!<\/p>\n
So, all of you, just as you quietly and without any murmur join the millions who rape the country, welcome to the new world \u2013 where you are a moron if you don\u2019t rape! \u00a0Go ahead \u2026 have your fill! \u00a0For, you or this society deserves no better!<\/p>\n
