aftermath of watching Firaaq

Just watched this movie called Firaaq about the after effects of the gujrat riots in 2002.. the movie makes you sick and depressed as to how humans can stoop down to levels of being savages.. the movie gives you an insight into the lives of the muslims after the riots.. 

after i watched the movie i was swayed in the direction of thinking that the hindus ONLY  were wrong... but after some research i realized that there is no right in this picture.. the hindu and muslim extremists ARE THE ONLY WRONG... people like us.. be it hindu or muslim suffer for no reason and have to face wrath because of the wrongdoings of these extremists... 

"An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind" 

im quite sure every language has some saying that is similar to this one.. i dont understand why people still cant use their judgement... having opinions is ok... not liking someone or liking someone because of their caste, color, race,religion is ethically wrong but OK as long as you keep it to yourself.. opinions are a personal issue... but when you start acting on those opinions thats where u go wrong... 

as you keep thinking about such riots and who are the people involved.. youll notice that they are the ones who are not satisfied with their own lives.. they have not achieved anything or havent even tried and are trying to make a mark in society through these means... everyone wants to be be successful... and peoples'  definitions of success are different.. a person involved in such acts thinks that doing this will make people remember him as the saviour of hinduism or islam... they are blinded by their own selfish desires that they lose sight of right and wrong... 

it is also largely the fault of the politics that these people are influenced into thinking that fighting for their so called religion is their calling.. politicians are using the godhra riots as a political tool while campaigning and i guess thats how they win... im quite sure there would have been those low lying congress guys who would be beaming as the riots took place.. knowing that the next time elections come around.. there is no chance BJP will win... and this is the same the other way around.. the 26/11 attacks... instead of trying to reach a consensus as to what action is to be taken... the BJP attacks congress.. congress says BJP didnt do anything in Kandhahar hijacking.. and in this process of attacking each other the 26/11 attacks have taken a back seat.. and we as citizens are also caught up in the "tu tu main main"

i would like to believe that politicians are humans too.. and they too have a conscience.. but looking at the actions taken by people... i dont think they are... there are very few people who grow up wanting to really help and make a difference in society... and we might as well realize that the people going into politics are not the protectors of humanity but are just looking at it as a career option... the people who i do think deserve to be politicians are the ones who have made a career for them selves and then joined politics.. so thats why the top brass of most political parties are ok.. but not the grass-root level politicians who join politics in order to continue their "father's business"!!
