Just a Thought. On Terrorism.

[justathoughter]

When the terrorism hits us, this is the media reaction:





Sifynews: Rescued Indian recounts 26 hrs of fear



-The Hindu: Saudi attack: Fear hits Indian expatriates



DC- Saudi kidnappers cut throats of 9 hostages

DC- Middle East turns tough



TOI- Saudi hostage drama ends, 8 Indians killed



D Herald-- 8 Indians among 22 killed as Saudi hostage drama ends

D herald-GUNMEN MISTOOK HIM FOR A WESTERNER



New India press.com- Dad won't be home, mom has gone to get his body



NDTV-- Khobar attack: 8 Indians killed







How different it is when it hits us ! How many of us feel the anger and fear because it hit us Indians ?



There are many of us who must have gone through the fear during those 20+ hrs because of the loved ones that we could be having in Saudi Arabia for work.



Do we get to react almost the same when it happens elsewhere in other well known powerful countries? Do we expect other countries to be more compassionate when it happens to us ?

whats your point? our media does cover major acts of terrorism affecting anyone, anywhere. if indians are affected anywhere naturally the concern in india is more.

in fact i think our coverage of international terrorism is better than coverage of terrorism in India by, say, CNN. western media is largely selfcentric and in this context whats the beef if Indian media gives a lot of coverage/sympathy to affected Indians?
