Back to the Future

From ethnic cleansing in Punjab and Bangal in 1947 to recent genocide in Gujrat, simply nothing has changed in the this part of the world. With the same aggressor (Sikhs and Hindus' in Punjab in East and Muslims in the West)), and the same aggressed (Muslims in the East Punjab with Hindus' and Sikhs' in the West), we've simply refused to learn from history. The same landscape, same methods, same indifference by the authorities and the same and perhaps the worst of this madness; no hope of learning from our past for the sake of a better tomorrow.
The roots of Godhra, Gujrat, massacre however lie in the contents of Sacher Commission Report. Simply put, Muslims were butchered at will, however to date, I have yet to hear or read that someone was held responsible and as logic would demand was sentenced to death. Not one. We have refused to learn from our past.
In the light of the aforementioned, it is hard not to believe in the usefulness of the moth-eaten 2-Nation Theory.
