"Any great work of literature fundamentally modifies our concept of all literature."
Why ?
Because now the victims are from a familiar race and their blood is thicker than non-whites' ?
That, indeed, is in some sense true of the unprecedented act of terror that has been projected into our homes across the world, and that has redefined the very idea of terrorism.
The ambivalence,*
the nebulous and accommodating notions of a distant terror,*
the opportunism of alternating support and condemnation,*
the vacillating "interests of state" that characterized .........an (nations'...) attitudes and policies in the past,*
no longer sustainable,

have suddenly been reduced to the rubble of the ....../////// Center.*
The human rights lobby is guilty of spending publics' invaluable resources on a great deal of sloganeering and social-thought engineering. There is now a widening international debate on the legitimacy and efficacy of the existing processes and institutional mechanisms for the protection of HRs, particularly in situations of cross border terrorism, low intensity warfare and threat from virulent cum proliferating terrorist movements.

It has always been my contention that a cocktail of terrorism, a compromised HR lobby, and an insensitive and stagnant judicial system manned by incompetent/frightened judges constitutes the gravest threat to the values of democracy, to human rights themselves, and to the unity and integrity of a society/nation.
