Death of a Blogger: Avijit Roy

Only history will tell if these Islamic terrorists were cowards; or if we the secularists of this world were cowardly. Avijit was a software engineer, advocate of free-speech; he ran a blog and wrote several books. He was an atheist and had written critical pieces on Islamists. His assassins slashed his head with butcher-knives; outside a book-fair.

News like these stare at our faces - we the "internet heroes" who debate to protect secularism; fight pitted battles against Modi-Bhakts and communal Hindus. But when real demons do their act; we go silent. Because fighting RSS/BJP/Modi is easy and "safe". May God save this world; not from the terrorists (our armies are enough for them) but from our cowardice (which is difficult to cure)...

Silence of the Gentlemen is the reason why Terrorism happens in this world...
