BJP’s doublespeak

BJP chief Rajnath Singh has not done his party proud by attacking the government for arresting some suspects in the Malegaon blast case. Until the Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS) of the Mumbai Police zeroed in on Sadhvi Pragya Singh, the party’s pet theme had been that the Congress-led government had been soft towards terrorists. In the meantime, the ATS has arrested a few suspects, including a serving Lieutenant-Colonel and the head of a Jammu Peeth. Initially, the BJP leadership took the right stand that terror did not have any religion and no leniency should be shown to the suspects. As investigations throw up evidence that some of them had links with other terrorist incidents like the one on the Samjhautha Express at Panipat, some BJP leaders like Mr Rajnath Singh have come up with the argument that the government was denigrating the Hindu community and the Army. This only betrays their warped thinking.

If anything, the Malegaon blast shows that bigots are not confined to any particular religion. To see some terrorists as “our terrorists” and others as “their terrorists”, as some political leaders do, is to give a new dimension to the whole debate on terror. Terrorists are first and foremost enemies of the people and they deserve no mercy. If proper investigations into the blasts at Ajmer and Hyderabad are carried out, they will expose the double standards employed by the investigating agencies and some political leaders. Nobody doubts the integrity of the Army just because a black sheep in uniform was caught masterminding a terrorist attack. Similarly, the arrest of a Sadhvi or a Swami does not mean Hinduism is under attack. To make such a claim is to draw political mileage out of it.

The BJP’s commitment to fight terror will remain compromised if its leaders like Mr Rajnath Singh indulge in doublespeak. Early this week, two RSS workers were blown to pieces while they were making bombs on the premises of a temple in Kannur district in Kerala. A day later, the police recovered 18 bombs from another worker’s house in the same area. Furtherance of cultural nationalism that the BJP chief is fond of talking does not require illegal bombs. Parties like the BJP and the Shiv Sena will do well to allow the ATS to investigate the Malegaon case, rather than put a spoke in its wheel.

Re: The Rise of Hindu Extremism

Thanks Dalbirk ji for posting this report; it shows why India is detouring from secularism.
Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/showthread.php?t=23508
Any country that targets only one religious community as a base of terrorism will actually get surprises now and then. In India, this practice is going on for a while. Terrorists have no religion, fanatics claiming any religion will destroy the harmony of the society whenever they get chance. The behavior of people should change regarding the concept of terrorism and stop targeting a few religious communities. This report shows how political parties with their base cells play games even when the country faces a tragedy. When a community in majority has such cells, it should respond wisely and help the Government to root out the culprits. I am sure, it will not happen till it leads to civil war like riots.

Re: The Rise of Hindu Extremism

The extremism of the Hindu Factions is slowly emerging. There are a number of 'intellectuals' amongst us and in the media who show their 'deep concern' and by all means use this as a chance to blame India and its majority.

They have turned a Nelson's eye to the activities of Islamic Jehad over the years, from 1989 India and hindus in particular were a victim of jehadi activities starting from Kashmir and slowing spreading its tentacles all over the world. These so called intellectuals go in hibernation when there is a bomb blast in New Delhi, or even when the Parliament of India is attacked.

There have been an alarming 3,50,000 kashmiri hindus living refugees in their own country.
  • 350,000 Kashmiri Pandits, constituting 99% of the total population of Hindus living in Muslim majority area of the Kashmir Valley, were forcibly pushed out of the Valley by Muslim terrorists, trained in Pakistan, since the end of 1989. They have been forced to live the life of exiles in their own country, outside their homeland, by unleashing a systematic campaign of terror, murder, loot and arson.
  • Genocide of Kashmiri Pandits has reached its climax with Muslim terrorism succeeding in 'CLEANSING' the valley of this ancient ethno-religious community.
  • With the completion of fifth year of their forced exile, this peace loving, culturally rich community with a history of more than 5000 years, is fighting a grim battle to save itself from becoming extinct as a distinct race and culture.
Here is a documentry which tell their story http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2vsztUdkpU"][SIZE=3][COLOR=#551a8b][B]YouTube[/B] - [B]And the world remained silent[/B] - [B]Part[/B] 2 (on [B]...[/B][/COLOR][/SIZ you can start with Part 1 which is listed on the right hand side.

Here below the link has some facts
Truth on Kashmir and Terrorism in India

There been enough done in India to have the majority react. We Sikhs were silent when Bhindranwale ran the show in Punjab of course with the help of Indira, we dint protest when there were assasinations and pogroms. We dint react when Bhindranwale turned our beloved Hari MandarSahib into a hideout and piled arms and explosives. What have we done to protect the country and our identity from getting labelled as terrorists.

What have we done as a community to root out culprits from our community ? We have babbar khalsa running the show in UK and Canada..spitting hatred against hindus and India.

Re: The Rise of Hindu Extremism

Two wrongs do not make it right, blaming on a community on the past and continue ignoring current problems is clear cut reason why India is losing its secular harmony.

Re: The Rise of Hindu Extremism

The beginning was done by these 'minorities' and the reaction will be obvious from the majority...when some one starts they have to know that their actions will have a U-turn ..
The muslim league was setup in 1906 ..
Akhil Bhāratīya Hindū Mahāsabhā , a
Hindu_nationalist Hindu_nationalist
organization, was originally founded in 1915 to counter the
Muslim_League Muslim_League

The majority is known to always react ...history has been a witness to it.

The 'minority' should know that its roots are not in the sands of Arabia , they are in the lush green fields of Bharat.

They glorify the barbaric acts of Mughals ...does the Sangat think is that something to be glorified...

Whether You accept it or not But islam does not beleive in secularism.Whenever they reach majority they crush minority and impose islamic laws and when they are in minority They Shout for secularism.It happens again and again With the creation of pakistan and bangaladesh are examples

BTW I personally beleive that Bomb blasts and attacks on christians are totally unjustified which are guilty of it should be punished for that

We do not learn from filthy ideology but from Guru Sahiban who never detoured themselves from Muslim community regardless harsh treatment they received at the hands of fanatic officials. I do not need to give examples, I guess.

Re: The Rise of Hindu Extremism

Unfortunately for some intellectuals the 'filthy' ideology inspired my Dasve Paadshahji to create KHALSA...HE militirised the bhagati based Sikhi into Sant Sipahi...and fought mughal tyranny...

The Ugradanti has verses like 'Madhi Ghor Deval Masitaam Girayam' which can be translated into creating huge temples and destroying mosques'

Its true That we should learn from Guru sahiban

But On the other hand shoulndn't we ask from common muslims why are they silence
about the persectution of minorities in their countries.Why only issue of palestine,kashmir and how to islamise this world is raised in OIC .Why they always vote for fanatic parties in their countries and then cry that an ordinary muslim is not a fanatic.

I am sorry to say but it clearly looks like That majority of common muslims support this filthy ideology and if they support that Then they all are guilty
