Accurate or shameless spin from the agenda driven media? Input from my new Indian friends would be appreciated.
New Delhi, July 29 (IANS) Scenes of unbelievable destruction and mounting casualties of innocent non-combatants caused in Lebanon by Israeli air strikes have evoked outrage in India.
Irrespective of their religion, Indians are reacting with fury after seeing on television the near-total destruction of southern Lebanon that had rebuilt itself after decades of civil war.
And the revulsion is not confined to Muslims, who constitute the largest religious minority in overwhelmingly Hindu India. India is also home to the world's fourth largest Shia population, the community the Hezbollah draws its strength from.
'This is sheer madness, destruction at its worst,' said criminal lawyer K. Elangovan, speaking to IANS over telephone from Chennai.
