Well, I just happen to encounter a good friend of mine who was quite disturbed when he came across a hate group - "**** India" and was responding in his own way to combat and give some comfort to his patriotic instincts.
The cycle of Hatred as I call it cannot be broken by direct encounter! If it could, it would have long been gone. Govt of India, the military, politicians everyone is trying hard to TALK terms over!!! what an irony that after every such attempt there has always been a totally opposite reaction somewhere in the country! Its only after one looses ones mind that they can hate someone beyond a limit I feel. we all dislike stuff. we all dislike people at one or the other time but hold on...... are we really hating the people or their acts and decisions?? question yourself. I feel I only hate or dislike certain acts/words or decisions by people/officials/governments that does not mean I have to hate them for the rest of my life! People/countries are an amalgamation of activities, decisions and attitudes its officials or controlling powers take up. When these controlling authorities are mistaken its them to blame for that one wrong decision (of course that might define the fate of that nation eventually) BUT its only some person's decisions that can be disliked or hated not the nation as a whole or a person entirely!
I think it is rather very naive and un becoming of a person to get into this hate circle and waste time, mind and resources in creating groups to promote hate or to join them in order to refute their argument! both are utter waste. If you feel patriotic and have got your blood boiled if India lost a cricket match or if some hate group was created in some social networking site is that of any use to the country or its people?? even remotely do you think you can influence these screwed up minds? I dont think so... well, if you want to solace your patriotism work towards the benefit of your nation, no effort is small - drop by drop makes an ocean right? so does min by min count. If you have time and intention to work for a better India - open up and do something about it! rather than waste time over with these ridiculous arguments of hatred.
I feel that if we all Ignore!!that would as well refute the existence of hate.If you encounter such people give love by showing sympathy towards a broken logic for these week minds.
because everyone be it a Pakistani or Iraqi or American or Indian - they are all people and all of them feel pain the same way. Its only sad that they did not get enough love to understand love.
I have a strong belief that we can only give what we have! I have love filled in my heart and hope filled in my mind so I shall give them. If you find people spreading hatred, sympathize that they only have hate to give since may that is the only thing they got in them!!!
Now question yourself - what have you got? love? knowledge? wisdom? peace? logic? coz you only can give what you got!!!

"i am from india we also have the same type of anger that every one have but its not on pakistan its on terrorists in pakistan we hate them and pakistanis are also people like indians ...try to understand...du live in peace...lets have a brotherly hood nature".......we can atleast stop people from joining communities by using such comments though
People who hate their own county and people have a problem in themselves, I cant stand people who hate India and that when they are born and raised in India, moved to US only after 25yrs. One of my friend recently said "you dont wanna move back to India OMG no power, lot of traffic, we cannot live there", I am like you started seeing them as problems when you have seen a better world, what if you never moved to US??
I hear you loud and clear sweety!!
@ Karthik - I completely agree
@ Paps akka - so true! I cant imagine why people tend to be so after a few years here. and what are they doing here... polluting this place too... funny and sad.
