Unbalanced thinking

There are many questions that no one has ever answered. Where do they get there money from to buy weapons? And do these people have any philosophy for success? Naxalites are not a new phenomena as Arundhati Roy suggests. It came to existence in 1967 when there was no India "in outer space". True economic disparity is now more visible then ever before. This cannot be resolved by guns. Those who live by the sword but die by it!

Address the root cause of the problem don't create monsters...

This documentary shows the self proclaimed India how it suppress its own people the freedom. Showing itself big power to the outside world is a scam. The rich gets richer and the poor become the poorest. if this continue for long then the Chinese prophecy will come true. The British built nation called India in the recent past will break into its old form that is more than 20+ counties. This is the reason they are "helping" the lankan govt to help kill innocent Tamils..

Best and human option is solving their greivances sincerely.

In every country such citizens, having difference of opinion with Govts decisions ,exist.If Govt tries to eliminate people with such differences just by using force unilaterally ,instead of minimising their grievances by counselling them properly and sincerely,such situations can become an opportunity to opportunist nations to exploit.Politics can be played with people who haven't objection with it.But playing the same cards, with people who have objection to it ,may not work out.

The solution is not, no guns, Macca. This treats only symptoms and not the cause. Proper International observation and recording of crimes is the answer so the real wrongdoers can be clearly identified. Then, if in the unlikely event they persist, they can be easily penalised if there is honest goodwill in the West

Why no questions in this report about where are the rebels getting their supplies (money)? Or, who might be ripping off what from the locals/rebels via the Govt which may be the cause of this "policing"? One must wonder if somebody stands to benefit from this.
