Arjun at Prem Panicker’s Smoke Signals posts an excellent analytical response to Tehelka’s recent investigative report on Gujarat riots. His account is by far, the closest to my own personal reaction but he puts it in far better manner. It neither pins the blame on one party alone nor does it examine the complex issue in black and white. It definitely deserves to be read in full.

If you want to be a defender of my faith, stand upright, do upright things and then, like Bhagat Singh, go singing to your just punishment with your head held honourably high. You should not hide behind the corrupted legal machinery, or bring dishonour to my religion by raping women, killing innocent people and resorting to brutality. In a just State all of you would promptly get your well-deserved punishment” [source].
