Munira’s Notes

My teacher and now colleague Munira has a sense of humor that reverbates with deep irony. Pune is not in the best of spirits right now, what with the sudden negative media attention and all that. While I agree with her in condemning ALL acts of terrorism, I couldn’t help but laugh at her post on facebook-FACTS ARE CERTAINLY STRANGER THAN FICTION. There are still so many gaping holes in the whole ‘terror’ canvas and neither the police nor (surprisingly, dissappointingly) is the media is helping elucidate or clarify. Community based stereotypes flourish as usual while prejudice and yellow journalism rule the roost. Oh well. At least someone’s asking the right questions. Never mind the answers.
