Sonia Gandhi Mystery Deepens, Chocolates Spied

Paul Beckett

The mystery around Sonia Gandhi’s unexplained absence from India this summer is getting even more bizarre.

The Congress party, as has been repeatedly noted, has said only that its President went for treatment abroad. Now, barely one week after returning to New Delhi, Mrs. Gandhi was well enough to chair a meeting. This was not just any meeting, but a gathering of Congress’s Central Election Committee, which appears to have the unenviable task of wading through reams of candidates to select to run for seats in Uttar Pradesh.

Despite Mrs. Gandhi apparently not being well enough to appear in public, the Business Standard reported that she achieved almost the same level of candidate-selection productivity as the committee’s previous meeting held, in her absence, at the residence of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.

The Race Course Road meeting “cleared the first list of the names of 73 party candidates for the UP elections,” the article said. “While a total of 98 names were discussed at the meeting on Thursday, only about 70 were finally cleared.”

Mrs. Gandhi, to hear her Congress lieutenants tell it, is not just on the mend but actually improved. After greeting the committee “attired in three-inch wedge heels and a bluish grey salwar suit,” the article said, one party functionary gushed that she looked “younger than usual” and was “more than usually cheerful.” One might ask, looking across the political landscape, what she has to be cheerful about unless it is the prospect of Narendra Modi going for a weekend without food, but that is beside the point. In comparison, the normally outlandish Digvijay Singh verged on the morose when he noted only that “nobody could make out that she has undergone any operation.” But even he couldn’t refrain from slipping in an upbeat coda: “Touch wood, she was looking quite good!” None of this is to belittle what Mrs. Gandhi underwent, whatever it was. We don’t know, because of the official silence. But how her absence – and her return – have been treated, especially by her Congress underlings, speaks volumes about the culture within the party. If you actually believed all these comments and quotes and had to guess where she had been, you’d think she’d spent a few weeks at Canyon Ranch and had brought back some nice gifts for her admirers. “She accepted our bouquet of flowers and greetings,” the unnamed functionary gushed. “We were delighted with the milk chocolates with nuts that she served us apart from the coffee.” What? He sounds like a schoolboy who has just met the Queen circa 1955.

Former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, waves to the press after leaving Cromwell Hospital, London in November 2010. On reading it, I was reminded of Margaret Thatcher. Not that the two women have much in common politically. But during Mrs. Thatcher’s time, her reputation as the Alpha Male among her Cabinet was legendary. Next to her, grown men — tough men with decades of experience in political combat — were said to go wobbly. One of the most famous sketches on the British satirical puppet show “Spitting Image” shows the Iron Lady, as Mrs. T was known, taking her Cabinet out to dinner. “Would you like to order sir?” the waitress asks the prime minister. “Yes, I will have the steak,” she says. “How’d you like it?” the waitress asks “Oh, raw please,” Mrs. Thatcher responds. “And what about the vegetables?” the waitress asks. “Oh,” says Mrs. Thatcher. “They’ll have the same as me.”

NDTV’s Great Indian Tamasha could do well to take inspiration if it is thinking of featuring Mrs. Gandhi anytime soon.

Can a Jihadi Muslim be rehabilitated?

Dr. Babu Suseelan

Jihadis who claim to be followers of MohaMad consider Islam as a perfect religion and need no revision, renaissance or reformation. Those who question it's irrational statements will be beheaded. Muslims are indoctrinated at a very young age through rot learning of the desert originated Koran. They never learn logical reasoning or develop any critical analytical methods. As a result, they grow up with emotional immaturity and intellectual difficulty in comprehending complex philosophical aphorisms and theories. Terrorism and fighting is the only problem solving methods they know.

The importance of Jihadi Muslim's sociological, psychological and communal life and built in prejudices are harmful to learning new problem solving techniques. Muslim children learn harmful Islamic practices at an early age at their Madrases. Islamic teacher attitudes play a large part in the etiology of learning disability of Muslims.

Islamic adherents reject all other religious theories, scientific facts and life philosophy. And Islam teaches polarity between believers and non believers.

Thus criminal behavior of Jihadi Muslims (Beheading, bombing, terrorism, hijacking, stoning, limb amputation) can be attributed to inherited deficiencies in the Islamic education system and become anti social through their Islamic definition of Kafirs and Infidels. As a result Jihadi Muslims develop character disorder, ego deficiency, and other carcinogenic needs. Islamic communities around the world amplify psycho pathologies of Jihadis as a form of divisive dysfunctional behavior.

Islamic preachers, Muslim Jihadi leaders, and Islamic Peer group pressure are considered crucial to the development of deviant behavior among Jihadis.

If rehabilitation of Jihadi Muslims to take place, we have to consider Islamic values. Islamic values are rigid, non compromising, non changeable, fundamental and dogmatic. There is mounting evidence that current practices are largely ineffective in altering or changing anti human Islamic values. For every appeasement policy and concession provided to Jihadi Muslims have failed miserably.Jihadis demand more for every concession provided to them.

There is no systematic research to evaluate programs for Muslims. This omission often leads to the question of over sell of such appeasement policy and programs for Muslims. Failure to recognize this fact is responsible for government waste and it fosters Jihadi terrorism in India. Asking for objective evaluation of appeasement programs for Muslims (Hajj Subsidy, Job Reservation, Special Islamic education, Mullah Pension, special privileges) from phony-corrupt secular politicians is tantamount to asking a man to testify against himself.

Essentially our strategies must be to alter Muslim's deviant values, attitudes, perception and change their criminogenic needs. Instead, government policies and programs amplify criminal values and deviant life of Jihadis. This has resulted in the common idiom by such saying as "you can not teach an old dog new tricks", " a leopard does not change his spots", and "once a Jihadi terrorist, always Jihadi terrorist".

Jihadi terrorism and criminal behavior around the world clearly indicates as scientific observation of Jihadi criminal behavior. Re socialization of Jihadi Muslim is a very difficult proposition.

Although appeasement of Jihadis do not appear to be highly successful, Jihadi terrorism continues through out India. Muslims seldom acquire secular-tolerant values or express any desire to co habitate with infidels.Perhaps the best way to achieve socialization of Jihadis would be to re-emphasize humanistic approach to criminal Jihadi behavior and emphasize pragmatism. Jihadi criminals and Islamic terrorists like all ex-convicts fall back into crime because they are criminals at heart and are incorrigible. The concept of punishment and restraints must be enforced. Jihadi offenders must be arrested, prosecuted, and punished and they should not be allowed to run freely. If Jihadi criminals are not restrained the society is jeopardized.

Ignorant, incompetent or irresponsible?

Dr Pravin Togadia

Again jehadi terror struck Delhi! Around three months back, in Delhi Court itself there was a powerful blast and the learned Home Minister with the Donald Duck smile promised Bharat that there would be proper security. There wasn’t, of course! Who has time to secure the nation, anyways! Those who are supposed to ensure the safety and security of the nation by strengthening hands of army, police etc, are busy misusing their good offices in bad-mouthing and persecuting Hindus, common people and old social workers.

Truly learned people from all walks of life have been alerting all Government that the menace of jehadi terrorism will gobble up Bharat very soon. But No! Most Government including the Centre have been purposely ignoring such well-meaning warnings. Are they really ignorant about the entire ideology behind jehadi terrorism? Does not seem so. The intelligence agencies of Bharat are smart and well informed. They are aware of the indoctrination being done in many countries – some neighbouring ones – of the youth towards killing those who are not like them. The internet is full of provocative messages and even jehadi recruitment sites. From the USA to Germany – all have been alerting Bharat that the jehadis no more look like the typical stereotype! They may have a foreign colour of skin, eyes and hair. David Headly is a glaring example. Internal agencies may have millions of dockets on domestic modules of jehadi outfits and about their nexus with the international ones. But yet the Goliath is sleeping. Not really!

People who run the government are not as ignorant as they would like to show! After each blast like a junior constable, the Donald Duck smile gives details of how many dies, how many injured and with the same clichéd line – we can not tell who really did it. Obviously! If he tells who really did it, he would lose his job and his party thinks it may lose a minority vote bank. So they have now crossed that stage of showing ignorance and entered the dark zone of incompetence!

Being incompetent is easier for such people. They really do not have to be accountable to anything! People die; many lose their legs, hands and therefore – their livelihoods; families collapse under sorrow and drudgery of living; nation is permanently terrorised as wanted by the jehadis! But incompetent people have no action to face. They do not lose their jobs, legs, hands, lives. They become a party to indirectly terrorise the nation by issuing mere alerts. Shamelessly the Donald Duck smile says – ‘we had an alert in July about High Court attack.’ Can there be anyone more incompetent than this? Knowing well, experiencing the attack in the similar area once, not even a CCTV there? Such people rattle the same sentences after every blast! Be it Mumbai or Delhi or Pune or anywhere!

They found out a new way to cover up their incompetent behaviour – they send NIA to each place wherever there is any blast. Not to really find out the real culprits but to ensure that Hindus and Hindu organisations are implicated in the attacks. They try to distract the well meaning local state investigating agencies and throw the probe in limbo so that the Jehadis are never punished but Hindus are implicated.

They may be gaining a few votes by doing it but in the long run not only they will lose the majority votes but they would also lose the power – because jehadis will over power the government, media, judiciary and administration. The makings of this are evident in many places from Kashmir to many districts of Assam, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala–so to say–in every state! But Donald Duck smile’s leader is busy visiting Bangladesh showering on it goodies like 24 X 7 unchecked entry into Bharat (as if they waited until now! That’s the route jehadis have been taking and Bharat’s intelligence agencies must be having enough proofs!), giving away 600+ acre Bharat’s land to Bangladesh (as if it is his personal property!), trying to compromise on Teesta river water and what not! It is truly a shame that when such a powerful nation’s head is visiting Bangladesh, the jehadi groups grown in the very Bangladesh blast Bharat’s High Court in the capital! Is it a height of being incompetent?

Well, no! Being ignorant can damage the nation, but one can not doubt the intentions. Being incompetent can damage the nation more and it seems the voters should now create and raise the efficiency bars even for the ‘netas’ they choose! But yet being incompetent is not the Government’s fault – it is just like that! May be unfit for the job!

But, being irresponsible is intentional! It is killing someone with a purpose and the Government are doing this with majority of Bharat! Killing sanaatani Hindus, Sikhs, Jains, Buddhists, Scheduled Castes, OBCs, Tribals…. Knowingly! They know that jehadi modules have been growing in Bharat with the help of the same Pakistan and Bangladesh with whom they claim to do dialogue! When a person is caught for a murder, the nexus or contact that the person has with the dead person is checked. If confirmed, the crime is confirmed. Here, many political leaders are seen appeasing known separatist jehadi groups. Then, when such groups strike and people of Bharat are killed, why should not be such hob-nobbers arrested? ‘Get blasted every now and then and get used to it’ is a highly irresponsible way to run the Government. Same happened in Kashmir, Assam, Tripura, Manipur etc and now all over Bharat!

Bharat’s majority is not born to tolerate such irresponsibility from anyone, however mighty he or she may be! Over 1000 years, Bharat fought against invaders and now even in the chosen democracy, if the majority has to get killed by the similar Jehadis because the rulers are irresponsible and bend for votes, then Bharat’s majority will democratically and peacefully focus on protecting itself without getting distracted or deviated by any euphoric dreams of pseudo reforms, development etc or by any so-called utopian social movements that do not ensure basic safety. Bharat knows how to protect itself. And Bharat will. Because Bharat has its own very strong ideology that is much more total and fulfilling that the jehadi indoctrination or than the opportunistic populist pseudo secularism due to which with a clumsy smile most politicians rattle figures as to how many per cent jobs had been given by them to the minority and so on. Majority is no more amused by such histrionics. Majority of Bharat wants strong systems that do not bend before jehadis either for votes or for money or for cheap publicity. And Bharat knows how to set such systems without ignorant, incompetent and irresponsible people.

B. Tech, IIT Bombay

ON Rahul Gandhi: "I feel ashamed to call myself an INDIAN after seeing
what has happened here in UP".
Dear Rahul,
YOU REALLY WANT TO FEEL ASHAMED???????
But don't be disappointed, I would give you ample reasons to feel
ashamed... You really want to feel Ashamed..?
* First Ask Pranav Mukherjee, Why isn't he giving the details of
the account holders in the Swiss Banks.
* Ask your Mother, Who is impeding the Investigation against
Hasan Ali?
* Ask her, Who got 60% Kickbacks in the 2G Scam ?
* Kalamadi is accused of a Few hundred Crores, Who Pocketed the
Rest in the Common Wealth Games?
* Ask Praful Patel what he did to the Indian Airlines? Why did
Air India let go of the Profitable Routes ?
* Why should the Tax Payer pay for the Air India losses, when
you intend to eventually DIVEST IT ANYWAY!!!
* Also, You People can't run an Airline Properly. How can we
expect you to run the Nation?
* Ask Manmohan Singh. Why/What kept him quiet for so long?
* Are Kalmadi and A Raja are Scapegoats to save Big Names like
Harshad Mehta was in the 1992 Stock Market Scandal ?

* Please read more about, How Indira Gandhi pushed the Nation

* WHY ONLY HIGHLIGHT THIS ARREST?
Dear Rahul, to refresh your memory, you were arrested/detained by the
FBI the BOSTON Airport in September 2001.
You were carrying with you $ 1,60,000 in Cash. You couldn't explain why
you were carrying so much Cash.
(Incidentally He was with his Columbian girlfriend Veronique Cartelli,
ALLEGEDLY, the Daughter of Drug Mafia. 9 HOURS he was kept at the
Airport. Later then freed on the intervention of the then Prime Minister
Mr. Vajpayee.. FBI filed an equivalent of an FIR in US and released him.
When FBI was asked to divulge the information, by Right/Freedom to
Information Activists about the reasons Rahul was arrested ...
FBI asked for a NO OBJECTION CERTIFICATE from Rahul Gandhi.
So Subramaniyam Swami wrote a Letter to Rahul Gandhi, " If you have
NOTHING to HIDE, Give us the Permission"
HE NEVER REPLIED!)
Why did that arrest not make Headlines Rahul? You could have gone to the
Media and told, "I am ashamed to call myself an INDIAN?".
Or is it that, you only do like to highlight Symbolic Arrests (like in
UP) and not Actual Arrests (In BOSTON)
Kindly Clarify.....In any case, you want to feel ashamed, Read Along...
YOUR MOTHER'S SO CALLED SACRIFICE OF GIVING UP PRIME MINISTERSHIP in
2004.
According to a Provision in the Citizenship Act, A Foreign National who
becomes a Citizen of India, is bounded by the same restrictions,
which an Indian would face, If he/she were to become a Citizen of Italy.
(Condition based on principle of reciprocity)
Now Since you can't become a PM in Italy, Unless you are born there.
Likewise an Italian Citizen can't become Indian PM,
unless He/She is not born here!
Dr. SUBRAMANIYAM SWAMI (The Man who Exposed the 2G Scam) sent a letter
to the PRESIDENT OF INDIA bringing the same to his Notice.
PRESIDENT OF INDIA sent a letter to Sonia Gandhi to this effect, 3:30
PM, May 17th, 2004.
Swearing Ceremony was scheduled for 5 PM the same Day. Manmohan Singh
was brought in the Picture at the last moment to Save Face!!
Rest of the SACRIFICE DRAMA which she choreographed was an EYE WASH!!!
In fact Sonia Gandhi had sent, 340 letters, each signed by different MP
to the PRESIDENT KALAM, supporting her candidacy for PM.
One of those letters read, "I Sonia Gandhi, elected Member from Rai
Bareli, hereby propose Sonia Gandhi as Prime Minister."
So SHE was Pretty INTERESTED! Until She came to know the Facts! She
didn't make any Sacrifice, It so happens that SONIA GANDHI
couldn't have become the PM of INDIA that time.
You could be Ashamed about that Dear Rahul!! One Credential Sonia G had,
Even that was a HOAX!
THINK ABOUT YOURSELF.
You go to Harvard on Donation Quota. ( Hindujas Gave HARVARD 11 million
dollars the same year, when Rajiv Gandhi was in Power)
Then you are expelled in 3 Months/ You Dropped out in 3 Months....
(Sadly Manmohan Singh wasn't the Dean of Harvard that time, else
you might have had a chance... Too Bad, there is only one Manmohan
Singh!)
Then Why did you go about lying about being Masters in Economics from
Harvard .. before finally taking it off your Resume upon questioning
by Dr. SUBRAMANIYAM SWAMI (The Gentlemen who exposed the 2G Scam)
At St. Stephens.. You Fail the Hindi Exam. Hindi Exam!!!
And you are representing the Biggest Hindi Speaking State of the
Country?
SONIA GANDHI's EDUCATIONAL QUALIFICATIONS
Sonia G gave a sworn affidavit as a Candidate that She Studied English
at University of Cambridge
According to Cambridge University, there is no such Student EVER! Upon
a Case by Dr. Subramaniyam Swami filed against her, She subsequently
Dropped the CAMBRIDGE CREDENTIAL from her Affidavit.
Sonia Gandhi didn't even pass High School. She is just 5th class Pass!
In this sense, She shares a common Educational Background with her 2G
Partner
In Crime, Karunanidhi.
You Fake your Educational Degree, Your Mother Fakes her Educational
Degree. And then you go out saying, " We want Educated Youth into
Politics!"
WHY LIE ABOUT EDUCATIONAL CREDENTIALS?
Not that Education is a Prerequisite for being a great Leader, but then
you shouldn't have lied about your qualifications!
You could feel a little ashamed about Lying about your Educational
Qualifications. You had your reasons I know, Because in India, WE
RESPECT
EDUCATION!
But who cares about Education, When you are a Youth Icon!!
YOUTH ICON
You traveled in the Local Train for the first time at the Age of 38.
You went to some Villages as a part of Election Campaign. And You won a
Youth Icon!! ... That's why You are my Youth Icon.
For 25 Million People travel by Train Every day. You are the First
Person to win a Youth Icon for boarding a Train.
Thousands of Postmen go to remotest of Villages. None of them have yet
gotten a Youth Icon. You were neither YOUNG Nor ICONIC!
Still You became a Youth Icon beating Iconic and Younger Contenders like
RAHUL DRAVID.
SURNAME
Shakespeare said, What's in a Name?
Little did he knew, It's all in the Name, Especially the Surname!
Speaking of Surname, Sir DO YOU REALLY RESPECT GANDHI, OR IS IT JUST TO
CASH IN ON THE GOODWILL OF MAHATMA?
Because the Name on your Passport is RAUL VINCI. Not RAHUL GANDHI..
May be if you wrote your Surname as Gandhi, you would have experienced,
what Gandhi feels like, LITERALLY ( Pun Intended)
You People don't seem to use Gandhi much, except when you are fighting
Elections. ( There it makes complete sense).
Imagine fighting elections by the Name Raul Vinci...
You use the name GANDHI at will and then say, " Mujhe yeh YUVRAJ shabd
Insulting lagta hai! Kyonki aaj Hindustan mein Democracy hai, aur is
shabd
ka koi matlab nahin hai! YUVRAJ, Itna hi Insulting lagta hai, to lad lo
RAUL VINCI ke Naam se!!! Jin Kisano ke saath photo khinchate ho woh bhi
isliye entertain karte hain ki GANDHI ho.. RAUL VINCI bol ke Jao... Ghar
mein nahin ghusaenge!!!
You could feel ashamed for your Double Standards.
YOUTH INTO POLITICS.
Now You want Youth to Join Politics.
I say First you Join Politics. Because you haven't Joined Politics. You
have Joined a Family Business.
First you Join Politics. Win an Election fighting as RAUL VINCI and Not
Rahul Gandhi, then come and ask the youth and the Educated Brass for
more
involvement in Politics.
Also till then, Please don't give me examples of Sachin Pilot and Milind
Deora and Naveen Jindal as youth who have joined Politics. They are not
Politicians. They Just happen to be Politicians.
Much Like Abhishek Bachchan and other Star Sons are not Actors. They
just happen to be Actors (For Obvious Reasons)
So, We would appreciate if you stop requesting the Youth to Join
Politics till you establish your credentials...
WHY WE CAN'T JOIN POLITICS!
Rahul Baba, Please understand, Your Father had a lot of money in your
Family account ( in Swiss Bank) when he died.
Ordinary Youth has to WORK FOR A LIVING. YOUR FAMILY just needs to
NETWORK FOR A LIVING
If our Father had left thousands of Crores with us, We might consider
doing the same. But we have to Work. Not just for ourselves.
But also for you. So that we can pay 30% of our Income to the Govt.
which can then be channelized to the Swiss Banks and your Personal
Accounts under
some Pseudo Names.
So Rahul, Please don't mind If the Youth doesn't Join Politics.
We are doing our best to fund your Election Campaigns and your Chopper
Trips to the Villages.
Somebody has to Earn the Money that Politicians Feed On.
NO WONDER YOU ARE NOT GANDHIs. YOU ARE SO CALLED GANDHIs!!
Air India, KG Gas Division, 2G, CWG, SWISS BANK Account Details... Hasan
Ali, KGB., FBI Arrest..
You want to feel ashamed..?
Feel Ashamed for what the First Family of Politics has been reduced
to... A Money Laundering Enterprise.
NO WONDER YOU ARE NOT GANDHI'S BY BLOOD. GANDHI is an adopted Name. For
Indira didn't marry Mahatma Gandhi's Son.
For even if you had one GENE OF GANDHI JI in your DNA. YOU WOULDN'T HAVE
BEEN PLAGUED BY SUCH 'POVERTY OF AMBITION'
(Ambition of only EARNING MONEY)
You really want to feel Ashamed?
Feel Ashamed for what you ' SO CALLED GANDHI'S' have done to MAHATMA'S
Legacy..
I so wish GANDHI JI had Copyrighted his Name!
Meanwhile, I would request Sonia Gandhi to change her name to $ONIA
GANDHI, and you could replace
the 'R' in RAHUL/RAUL by the New Rupee Symbol!!!
RAUL VINCI : I am ashamed to call myself an Indian.
Even we are ashamed to call you so!
P.S: Popular Media is either bought or blackmailed, controlled to
Manufacture Consent! My Guess is Social Media is still a Democratic
Platform.
(Now they are trying to put legislations to censor that too!!).
Meanwhile, Let's ask these questions, for we deserve some Answers.

Dr Swamy in US TV on Islamic Terror, Sonia Gandhi/CON Party Corruption

HK


Dr Subramanian Swamy is interviewed by Fox TV. Dr Swamy answers the response to his DNA piece, orchestrated campaign in Harvard and hooliganism by Sonia Gandhi/Congress Party, resulting in attack on his home in response to his exposing the 2G scam.

Interesting that Fox TV covered this while Indian media outlets like NDTV preferred to censor this news.And this is probably the first time, sonia gandhi corruption is cited in a mainstream media outlet, something Indian media tries to censor.

Pallone introduces resolution on Kashmiri Pandits in US House

WASHINGTON: Influential Democratic Congressman Frank Pallone has introduced a resolution in the US House of Representatives, condemning the extremist violence against the Kashmiri Pandits since 1989.

The resolution condemns the extremist violence, lack of religious freedom, and human rights violations committed against Kashmiri Pandits, which they have endured for more than two decades.

It also insists that terrorist infrastructure in the region must be dismantled and terrorists should be held accountable for their actions.

Noting that Kashmiri Pandits are the original inhabitants of Kashmir, tracing their heritage and culture back several millennia; the resolution says that Kashmiri Pandits have been the victims of documented human rights violations resulting in the severe curtailment of their religious freedom for more than two decades.

Stating that Kashmiri Pandit population has declined from 400,000 in 1989 to a current level of less than 4,000 in the Kashmir Valley and many Pandits continue to live in refugee camps; the resolution observes that international human rights organisations have noted the campaign of intimidation and violence directed by foreign militants and foreign terrorist organizations against Kashmiri Pandits.

The resolution has been welcomed by the Hindu American Foundation (HAF).

"While too many policy makers in Washington DC do little to highlight the plight of Kashmiri Pandits, Congressman Pallone has taken the lead in raising awareness about this critical matter," said HAF's director Samir Kalra.

"HAF is pleased that an issue it has pursued with Congressman Pallone's help for several years has been introduced in the House again," Kalra said.

"The introduction of H.Res. 387 is not only significant for Kashmiri Hindus and the Hindu American community, but also furthers America's commitment to promoting religious freedom around the world," continued Kalra.

Response to Petition against Dr. Swamy

Global Hindu Heritage Foundation

On behalf of millions of Hindus and Global Hindu Heritage Foundation, We want to express our deep appreciation to Dr. Subramanian Swamy’s for his article. It is superb, outstanding, excellent, thought provoking, imaginative, inspiring, practical, timely, excellent article on the most difficult topic as to how to eradicate Islamic Terrorism. Islamic Terrorism is rampant, extensive, deliberate, purposeful and heinous attempt to de-stabilize the government so that Hindus can be rooted out. Dr. Swamy has shown his intelligence, his expertise and his depth of knowledge on the subject. Even a cursory reading will give the impression about his history of Islamic terrorism and cultural perspective on the subject. Sooner the Hindus realize it, sooner the better. The Islamic terrorists have sacrificed enough Hindu lives and other lives and Dr. Swamy’s approach is pragmatic and should be implemented forthwith. These strategies are addressed for the protection of the Country and it’s territorial integrity. It should not be treated against Muslims.

Petition against Dr. Swamy’s article on “How to wipe out Islamic Terrorism” was drafted by about 250 students, faculty, staff, parents, alumni and others demanding “that the Harvard administration repudiate Swamy's remarks and terminate his association with the University.” What a pity. Let us look at what their shock at the strategies Dr. Swamy suggested.

We request all the Petitioners to be reasonable, objective, non-biased, logical, and examine from a global point of view instead of concentrating on the localized point of view. We request all the petitioners not to be trapped into ”frog in the well” concept. There is a whole world in front of you to examine, analyze, compare and contrast different countries and look at their the human rights issues, freedom, liberty and human dignity.

According to the petitioners they are concerned about the strategies to deter terrorism. These include "declar[ing] India a Hindu Rashtra in which non-Hindus can vote only if they proudly acknowledge that their ancestors were Hindus"; "[r]emov[ing] the masjid in Kashi Vishwanath temple and the 300 masjids at other temple sites"; "[e]nact[ing] a national law prohibiting conversion from Hinduism to any other religion"; and "[p]ropagat[ing] the development of a Hindu mindset."

PETITIONERS CONCERNS

Before we go into these Petitioners concerns, all of us should remember what George Santayana said about our own grasp of our history. 'Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.' Hindus have to be aware of their untold suffering in the hands of Muslims, how they were massacred for refusing to be converted to Islam on the high mountains of Hindu Kush in Afghanistan, how they converted thousands of Hindu Temples into Mosques and how they built them on top of the exiting Hind Temples. Hindus have to visit all the Hind Temples that have been damaged, mutilated and broken by the Muslim rulers. In fact Hindus should take their children, and show them the atrocities committed by Muslim rulers on Hindus so that they will take necessary steps to avoid the repeat of the cycle of human tragedy. Look at Pakistan where Post Independence Hindu population of about 18 percent dwindled to handful at present. Similarly, nearly 24 percent of post Independence Hindu population declined to less than 6 percent. No imagination is need to figure out how the Hindus may have been converted or massacred in these two Muslim countries.

I) Islamic Terrorism.

Dr. Swamy indicated in his article that Islamic terrorism must be wiped out. Why would he say that? What could be the reasons for his argument? Does he have a substantive evidence to suggest such strategies? Did he know any thing about the history of Islamic brutality? No question about his views on the strategies to deal with it. In fact ample evidence is available for any open minded, scholarly, academic, inquisitive and fair-minded person to read, digest and ponder over the bloodiest period in the Indian history.

Will Durant, the author of the Story of Civilization, captured the true nature of Islam in the following assessment: “The Mohammedan Conquest of India is probably the bloodiest story in history. It is a discouraging tale, for its evident moral is that civilization is a precarious thing, whose delicate complex of order and liberty, culture and peace may at any time be overthrown by barbarians invading from without or multiplying within. The Hindus had allowed their strength to be wasted in internal division and war…”

Nearly 13 centuries of atrocities of Muslim rulers and the present Islamic terrorists are the testimony of the cruelty inflicted on Hindus. Their Temples were destroyed, their idols were shattered, millions of Hindus were killed, thousands of women were raped, thousands of people were mutilated, jewels of the Temples were stolen, many Kings were subjugated and committed untold atrocities on Hindus in the name of Allah. At present with the support of the present government, Muslims are enjoying more rights than their counterparts in other Muslim countries, and determined to “complete the unfinished business.” Since Independence, their hunger to convert India into a Muslim country is insatiable. They openly talk about it with no recourse from the government or the Hindus.

One can argue that let bygone be bygones. Let us not harbor on the past. What guarantee is there that the history will repeat itself? May be one could argue that the present day Muslims may be different and they may not resort to that kind of vindictive, malicious acts on Hindus in India. Unfortunately, it is not true. In fact it may be even worse that what had happened. Now a day’s Islamic terrorism is more widespread than before and spreads all across India.

Dr. Robert Blackwell was an US Ambassador to India 2001-2003. He was the Belfer Lecturer in International Security at Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government. Let us read what he said before he left India about the Islamic terrorism:

“While I was preparing for my Senate confirmation hearing in early 2001 in Cambridge, Massachusetts, I started to read regularly the Indian press. It was then that for the first time I encountered the devastating fact of terrorism against India. Sitting in my office at Harvard, I began to keep a daily count of those killed here by terrorists. Three on Monday. Seven on Tuesday. Fourteen on Wednesday. Five on Thursday. Two on Friday. Day after day. Week after week. Month after month.

India's death toll from terrorism mounted as the snow fell and melted in Cambridge, and that New England winter turned to spring. And I became more and more angry. Innocent human beings murdered as a systemic instrument of twisted political purpose. Terror against India that rose and fell with the seasons, year after year after year.

By the time that I left the United States for India in the summer of 2001, this very personal death count that I was keeping had reached hundreds. And, for me, these were not abstract and antiseptic numbers in a newspaper story. Each death, I forced myself to remember, was a single person -- an individual man, woman, child -- with family, loved ones, friends. They each have a name. Just like us, they each had a life to lead. These are our mothers, our fathers, our brothers, our sisters, our babies, and our friends. Each had laughs to laugh. Tears to shed. Loves to love. Meals to eat. Accomplishments to record. Setbacks to overcome. Places to go. Things to do. Prayers to offer. All snuffed out by the killing hand of terror. On September 11 in America. Nearly every day in India.

No respectable religion could excuse these merciless acts. No moral framework could sanction these abominations. No political cause could justify these murders of innocents. And yet, they go on.

But, my friends, these terrorist outrages against my country and against yours will not continue indefinitely. We know this from the Ramayana, and many other holy books. Good does triumph over evil, although it sometimes takes more time than we would like.”
Mission of Terrorist Organizations in India

Many Islamic organizations are openly talking about making India a Muslim Country. They use any and all methods to terrorize Hindus to leave their areas of residence, slowly occupy them and dominate the state as in West Bengal. The Indian Mujahideen’s emails warn the Hindus to “Accept Islam and save yourselves” and or else face a horrible fate: – “Hindus! O disbelieving faithless Indians! Haven’t you still realized that the falsehood of your 33 crore dirty mud idols and the blasphemy of your deaf, dumb, mute and naked idols of Ram, Krishna and Hanuman are not at all going to save your necks, Insha-Allah, from being slaughtered by our [Muslim] hands?”

Split India and form Mughalistan Country

The “Mughalistan Research Institute of Bangladesh” created jointly by Pakistan and Bangladesh released a map where a Muslim corridor named “Mughalistan” connects Pakistan and Bangladesh via India. There are Muslims in India, who dream of “Mughalistan” are working relentlessly towards a further partition of India by creating “Mughalistan” in the UP-Bihar-Bengal-Assam corridor. It remains the focus of mainstream groups like the Tablighi Jamaat, the Students Islamic Movement of India (SIMI) and the Indian Mujahideen, who have blown up several Indian cities killing thousands of people.

Until Mughalistan is achieved, Indians will continue to see serial bomb-blasts, attacks on Hindu festivals and temples, killings of Hindu activists, conversions of Hindu women and socio-economically backward sections, and brazen cow-slaughter that will continue endlessly until the Hindu mind becomes too numb and shell-shocked to look at the bigger picture, or comprehend the future – that Mughalistan is inevitable.

Additionally, Pakistan-based militant groups like Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed are seeking accession of Kashmir to Pakistan. Lashkar-e-Toiba, Jaish-e-Mohammed, Harkat-ul-Mujahideen. Jaish-e-Mohammed is viewed by some as the "deadliest" and "the principal terrorist organization in Jammu and Kashmir.

Indian Mujahideen warns frequently that “We will strike terror in the hearts and minds of these idol worshippers until the mountain of injustice is undone. We will leave no stone unturned come what may till the anger of believer’s hearts is removed and a Magnificent Masjid is built at the same spot (Babri Masji)…. Be assured that Indian Mujahideen, the sons of Mahmud Ghazni, Muhammad Ghori, Qutb-ud-din Aibak, Firuz Shah Tughlaq and Aurangzeb have resolved that none of your Mandirs will remain safe until and unless all our occupied Masjids throughout India are returned back to the Muslims with honour. "

Indian Mujahideen further states: It is important to note that in its “holy war” against India, the Lashkar-e-Tayyaba has openly declared Hindus to be the “enemies of Islam” who should all be converted or killed. The Lashkar-e-Tayyaba group has repeatedly claimed through its journals and websites that its main aim is to destroy the Indian republic and to annihilate Hinduism.


II Kashmiri Pandits are thrown out

Dr. suggested that Article 370 be removed and create Panum Kashmir for Hindu Pandit community. Why did he do? Article 370 has given a special provision whereby state's residents lived under a separate set of laws, including those related to citizenship, ownership of property, and fundamental rights, as compared to Indians. Without State Government's concurrence the Indian Parliament cannot applying and enforce all other laws. Further more, Indian citizens from other states and women from Jammu & Kashmir who marry men from other states can’t purchase land or property in Jammu & Kashmir. It is almost like a new country within a country.

Over the last two decades, these organizations have driven out as many as 400,000 Kashmiri Pandits from their homeland. Constituting nearly 95 percent of the total population of Hindus living in the Kashmir Valley, they have been forcibly pushed out of the Valley by Islamic terrorists. They have been forced to live the life of exiles in their own country. Terrorism has unleashed in Kashmir a systematic campaign of terror, murder, loot, arson and rape against Hindus in Kashmir. Hundreds of temples in Kashmir have been desecrated, destroyed, and looted. Over the years terrorists have attacked more than 900 educational institutions. Properties of Pandits have been vandalized, businesses destroyed or taken over, even hospitals have not been spared.

It high time that Article 370 is repealed immediately to make Jammu & Kashmir a part of India.

III. Hindu Rashtra

Every nation has a unique cultural identity. The values, believes, ethos, conduct, moral compass, dress, personality, family values and demeanor of a given country are set apart from other countries. Muslim culture, African culture with many differences, American culture, Italian culture, Mexican culture, Chinese culture, etc are examples of their uniqueness in terms what they stand for. There are many differences among Hindus depending on their region and sub-regions. There are many traits that are unique to Hindus. Ahimso paramo dharmaha – non-violence is utmost important. It has a history of many centuries. Karma philosophy, karma theory, belief in reincarnation, respect for other religions, and the underlying belief in live let live philosophy, are the hallmark of Hindu identity. Many people describe Indian culture as unity in diversity resulting in more tolerance. Never invaded any other country and never subjugated others for reasons of religious dominance.

Francois Gautier said that Hindus “had also given refuge to persecuted minorities from across the world—Syrian Christians, Parsis, Jews, Armenians, and today, Tibetans. In 3,500 years of existence, Hindus have never militarily invaded another country, never tried to impose their religion on others by force or induced conversions. You cannot find anybody less fundamentalist than a Hindu in the world and it saddens me when I see the Indian and western press equating terrorist groups like SIMI, which blow up innocent civilians, with ordinary, angry Hindus who burn churches without killing anybody.”

There is interest in imposing their religion with Sword and money. It cannot be said of Islam and Christianity. Their whole mission is to convert and emphasize is exclusiveness. Hindus are inclusive. No other country has one civil code for Muslims and one for the rest. Tolerance, freedom, nonviolence and coexistence are the hallmark of Hinduism. In almost all the Ashrams across India, they display the symbols of all the religions indicating the respect for other faiths. Can any other religions say about the unity of all faiths?

What about Islam? Islamic scriptures contain a number of passages to inflict atrocities on non-Muslims, but none in Hindu scriptures on non-Hindus. Let us look at one simple example from Sura IX, verse 5 of the Quran, “Then, when the sacred months have passed, slay the idolators wherever ye find them, and take them captive and besiege them….”.
Amir Taheri, The idea of equality is unacceptable to Islam. For the non-believer cannot be the equal of the believer. - Sunday Times, 23rd May 2004.

Next question to ask is why would Dr. Swamy say that in Hindu Rashtra, only non-Hindus can vote if they proudly acknowledge that their ancestors are Hindus. It is a known fact that overwhelming majority of the Muslims was converted from Hindus mainly through force. Once they know that they all Muslims and Hindus have the same blood that would certainly ease the tensions resulting in more tolerance toward each other.

Pakistani National Flag: Many of you may have seen that some of the residents of Kashmir hoist Pakistan National Flag instead of Indian National Flag almost every year during the time of Independence Day. Is it because Indian government cannot apply laws without the concurrence of the State. In 2011 the state government even opposed Bharatiya Janata Party's (BJP) to hoist the Tricolour on Republic Day at Lal Chowk, a place which has witnessed the hoisting of Pakistani, green Islamic and white flags not just once but several times in the past.

It makes one wonder whether Indians have any rights to settle in Kashmir, do business and purchase property. Do you think that any other country will ever tolerate this kind of discrimination against tier own people?

Sharia Law imposition, once the Muslims become majority, is going to be disastrous for the Indian subcontinent.

The petitioners’ say that they are shock at the suggestion that India should be declared Hindu Rashtra. What would be their shock if they come to know that more than 50 countries in the Middle East are Muslim counties. Is it perfectly OK for them to have that many Islamic countries?

As Dr. Swamy advocated that India should be declared as Hindu Rashtra to advance the idea of equality for all religions, to avoid the impending catastrophe for human race, and pass one single Uniform Civil Code for her citizens. Proudly hoist Hindustan flag and sing Vandemataram. We request all the petitioners to PONDER and look at the global picture.

IV. Kashi Viswnatha Temple.

The petitioners were shocked to read Dr. Swamy’s strategy that Masjid in front of Kashi Viswanath Temple be removed and 300 others in other sites. If any body had visited Kashi Vishwanath Temple, he would come away disgusted, wondering how can one group of people can be so vindictive and spiteful for another group of people. The time has come for that Masjid to be removed. We want ask all the petitioners if they ever visited Kashi Vishwanath Temple to feel the shock. May be a handful. Even that we doubt it. These petitioners are students, faculty, staff and their parents, attending or affiliated with one of the most prestigious universities in the world. They know better than mere arm chairing. They are supposed to be rational, objective, logical, reasonable and scientific.

Please know that it took more than 60 years to decide whether Babri Masjid is built on the site of Lord Rama Temple. Will it happen in any other country? In September 2010 when the High Court declared it as a birthplace of Lord Rama, still many Muslims questioned the judgment.

Dr. Swamy mentioned about 300 other Masjids at different sites that need to be addressed. Sri Sita Ram Goel’s monumental book “Hindu Temples: What Happened to them?” identified 2000 Temples including Mathura, Taj Mahal, and others that were converted to Masjids. Praful Goradia’s book “Hindu Masjids” should be eye openers for all Hindus and they should work to re-establish the true history of Bharat and rewrite the negated history; expose the concealed, contrived, manufactured and false history.

V. Prohibit Conversion

Mahatma Gandhi called religious conversions a fraud on humanity. He wrote: "If I had power and could legislate, I should certainly stop all proselytizing". "I resent the overtures made to Harijans." "Stop all conversion, it is the deadliest poison that ever sapped the fountain of truth." Poverty doesn't justify conversion.

Swami Vivekananda speaking about what damage Christian missionaries have done to India, he says in a lecture reported in the Detroit Free Press (February 21, 1894): "They come to my country and abuse my forefathers, my religion, and everything; they walk near a temple and say 'you idolators, you will go to hell', but they dare not do this to the Mohammedans of India, for the sword will be out but the Hindu is too mild."

Dr. Swamy suggested that we enact a national law prohibiting conversion from Hindu religion to another religion. Petitioners seemed to have been shocked at this and they argued that ban on religious conversion “would grossly violate freedom of religion.”

Hindus welcomed all the oppressed religions and provided shelter for them to practice their faith. The Parsis, the Jews, and the Buddhists came and practiced their religion without fear, without force and without interference. In fact the Hindus protected the early Christians and Muslims too. The vision of God in Hinduism compels them and propels them to do that. Hindus accept various forms of worship, prayers and Gods; one more really does not matter to us.

Swami Dayananda Saraswati observes that, “religious conversion by missionary activity remains an act of violence. It is an act of violence because it hurts deeply, not only the other members of the family of the converted, but also the entire community that comes to know of it. One is connected to various persons in one's world; he would affect everybody he connects to.”

Do the petitioners know any thing about apostasy in Islam? Do the Muslims allow conversion from their religion to other religion and allow the converts to criticize Islam?
Some Muslim leaders believe that the death penalty can only be applied in certain cases. Dr. Mohammad Omar Farooq, professor at Upper Iowa University, states “Undeniably, the traditional position of Muslim scholars and jurists has been that apostasy [riddah] is punishable by death.”

Zakir Naik also states that if a converted Muslim speaks against Islam then that is considered as treason and punishable by death in a country ruled by Islamic law.
According to Sunni Hadith "Whoever changed his (Islamic) religion, then kill him" Sahih al-Bukhari, 9:84:57.
Do the petitioners express shock over the punishment of killing of a Muslim if he changed his religion?

Or killing is less shocking than banning conversion as suggested by Dr. Swamy?

a) Illegal immigration: There many millions of Bangladeshi people are entering the border districts of West Bengal and causing havoc in these districts. The unchecked Muslim infiltration from Bangladesh to India, along with the vast borderline of West Bengal, is causing lot of problems for Hindus. Two strategies may be adopted: stop illegal infiltration from Bangladesh, which is difficult, and annex lands in proportion to the illegal migrants.

b) Family Planning. No country can afford to have a unlimited explosion of population by having as many babies as 14 per family. “Sangbad Protidin” a leading Bengali daily in West Bengal covered this burning news on its 18th June 2011 issue under the caption: 14 children of a Mother, Population Blast in the Border, Administration Worried.

The newspaper “depicts a dangerous threat of outburst of Muslim population in more than 100 villages in Islampur block in Uttar Dinajpur district in West Bengal – Bangladesh border. The areas of Agdimati, Khanti, Bamlagaon, Sujali and Govindapur near Islampur is overburdened with the families with 14/15 children or more in a family or for a single mother.” If any Hindu reporter says that huge increase of Muslim population is caused by motivated birth rate advocated by the Fundamentalist Muslim clerics, he may be branded fundamentalist. Government is afraid to talk openly and have open discussion. More children they have more strength would have to fight the non-Muslims. The “small family-happy family”… “choto parivar-sukhi parivar” is a meaningless slogan to the Bengali Muslims in whole of West Bengal.

Dr. Swamy rightly suggested the enactment banning conversion, adoption of family planning and curtailment of the illegal infiltration to reduce the Islamic terror.

VI Hindu Mindset

Petitioners also expressed shock at Dr. Swamy’s strategy to wipe out Islamic Terrorism through the development of a Hindu mindset. What is this mindset Dr. Swamy is talking about?

This is the mind that has explored various aspects of reality, delved deep into the human body, analyzed the external boundaries of the universe, and transcended time and space. David Frawley observed that “The Hindu mind represents humanity’s oldest and most continuous stream of conscious intelligence on the planet. Hindu sages, seers, saints, yogis and jnanis have maintained an unbroken current of awareness linking humanity with the Divine since the dawn of history.” The Hindu has been connected to the true Self and Being that transcends all outer appearances and religious divisions. It is never reduced to one religion, philosophy, language or culture.

Hindu mind cannot accept one Son of God for every one, questioning the very need of conversion by the Missionaries, the very methods of forced conversions, the need for harvesting the souls, and the need to plant a cross on Indian soil. Similarly, Hindu mind will question the very rigid Islamic formula of One God, on scripture, a last prophet, paradise for believers and hell for non-believers.

Hindu mind developed a power concentration that has not been surpassed. It pierces though the mind, matter and soul. Sister Devamata observes that “ Like a search light, or an X-ray, it (Hindu mind) should pierce the densest veil of matter. It should be able to penetrate into the heart of all things, above all into the nature and constitution of man himself. The perfect scientist therefore must be a Seer.”

In ancient India, all sciences made great strides. Nothing is left undone. It covered almost every thing and every subject under the sky. One of the members of the French Academy, M. Brieux observed that, “The noble minds of India, without having had the necessity of having recourse to experimental science like us, discovered the truths which we discover after them. By the unaided power of concentration, they have given an explanation of the universe which appeared ridiculous for us for a long time, but which our scholars are now beginning to accept.”

Hindu mind is universal, nonsectarian, non-religious, scientific, exploratory, methodical, sacred, logical, investigative, intuitive, objective and inclusive. It is with this kind of mindset, one can live in peace, wipe out terrorism, root out sectarian dogmas, value the human life, respect the dignity of individuals, practice non-violence, tolerate differences, value the freedom of expression, advocate the pluralistic believes, uphold the liberty for all, refrain from terror, abstain from destroying other civilizations, and live in peaceful coexistence. Let us conclude with sloka rendered by Lord Krishna in Bhagavad Gita, “ I am the same in all beings. I have no favorite and no enemy. Those who worship me with love, I am in them and they are in me.”

We believe that Dr. Swamy’s bold, brave, brilliant, valiant, and powerful article on “How to Wipe Out Islamic Terrorism” is the answer for societal ills. They need to be addressed with the strategies suggested by Dr Swamy. We request all the Petitioners to be fair-minded, objective, scientific and reasonable in addressing the issues raised by Dr Swamy without carrying the baggage containing the guilt and the belief in the exclusivity of one’s own religion to dominate others.

Om Shanti! Om Shanti! Om Shant!
