We can only recall with nostalgia now the sense of unity and purpose we had developed after the Mumbai massacres. We knew who the enemy was. The enemy had attacked us indiscriminately. As many as 40 out of the 172 killed were Muslims. This was an attack on the Indian nation. There was no communal question involved. Western media did try to project the issue as an internal Indian problem and published articles dripping with unprecedented sympathy for the “plight of Indian Muslims” in their bid to save Pakistan from being blamed. But the country saw the games they were playing and why. This was an attack on the Indian nation from a foreign power and the Indian nation rose up as one man to face the onslaught. We were in the process of giving a fitting reply to the enemy.
