I dont see a problem with the first article posted.

In fact the second article is worse with heading

'Role in the militancy'

Gurmukhs from damdami taksal and akhand kirtani jatha gave their life for the panth. They fought against injustice. To the outsider they may be militants, for me bhai Fauja Singh ji and bhai Jarnail Singh ji are heroes. They made the ultimate sacrifice for the panth.


'I also have issues with this particular "Sant" who I think must shoulder some of the blame, along with the government at the time, for turning sacred ground into a battlefield'

This statment is totally false. As Giani Jarnail Singh ji has stated why were so many ther Gurdawaras simultaneously attacked, women raped, innocent men women and children killed if Indian Army wanted Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale. This attack was designed to wipe out Sikhi from India, this is why the Indian army shamelessy burnt Sikh Reference Library. Look at how many peaceful protests Jarnail Singh carried out, no violence, just peaceful marches highlighting the crimes of Indian Gov against the Sikhs.

I was Indian Army that fired the first bullets. As Sant Maskeen ji said in one his katha, if Indian Army believed Drabar Sahib was such a sacred, holy, pure place then why did they bring Tanks inside Darbar Sahib. For one man, a whole army, guns and tanks.

The reality is that bhai Mehtab Singh ji and bhai Sukha Singh ji cut off the head of Massa Ranghar inside Harmandir Saihib sahib.
Baba Deep Singh attained shaheedi inside Darbar Sahib.
Baba Gurbaksh Singh fought valiantly trying to protect Harmandar Sahib - http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/histor...i-shaheed.html

So were these great Gursikhs wrong for fighting at Harmandar Sahib? Of course not. Fighting against injustice is never wrong whether it be on holy land or not. It would be unholy to sit by and say nothing and do nothing.

Recently bhai Amrik Singh, another great shaheed of the panth, son of bhai Kartar Singh Bhindranwale also was martyred alongside bhai Jarnail Singh at sri Akal Takht. His daughter gave a great interview on tv explaining the great courage of both her mother and father during operation bluestar. The way bhai Amrik Singh fought the indian army at Akal Takht is so inspiring. Both bhai Amrik Singh and bhai Jarnail Singh fought a fierce battle with indian army at Akal Takht. Only after the army bought heavy artillery to use against Akal Takht were they able to finally able to get near Akal Takht.

I highly reccomend you watch these interviews from daughter of bhai Amrik Singh ji
