Media is OPENLY DIVISIVE AND ANTI-HINDU

Mohan Natarajan < >

Dear Sir

Media is OPENLY DIVISIVE AND ANTI-HINDU

—————————————————————–

Akhtar has got the facts twisted.  Kashmir valley has become Hindu free because of the massacre and ethnic cleansing of Hindus.  4 lac Hindus are refugees in their own country. Whether Raut or Sena has done any such ethnic cleansing of Muslims? Why despite being a minority, why a Muslim is always the chief Minister OF JAMMU AND KASHMIR?  Are Hindus disposable garbage?

At the time of partition, the Hindu population in Pakistan was around 18% and now it is less than 1%. Genocide. Have Hindus engineered any genocide against Muslims in India?

At the time of partition, the Hindu population in Bangladesh was around 33% and now it is less than 6%. Genocide and ethnic cleansing.  Bangla Human Rights commission had accepted that 35 million Hindus could not be accounted for.

Have Hindus done anything to Muslims in India of this sort?

The Muslim population in India has grown from 4 crores at the time of partition to the present level of 24 crores. What this indicates?

Not a single BJP candidate was elected from Kashmir valley.

But Akhtar bemoans not many Muslims are in the cabinet. BJP gets only a few Muslim MPs elected and how can they accommodate many Muslims? BJP’s cabinet – many communities are unrepresented. Many states have no member in the BJP cabinet. Because, we cannot have a 1000 member Ministry.

Commercials.  It is Sharuk Khan, Salman Khan, Aamir Khan and Saif Ali who hogs the main space in TV commercials.  Added to this, Mrs. Saif Ali.

And because Muslims don’t want the women to come out of Burqa, we cannot find many women from Muslim community in the advertisement.  Who is to blame?  Similarly, Muslims are reluctant to send their women for office work, higher education etc. Who is to blame?

Raut is correct.  South Indians were attacked by Shiv Sena because they felt that South Indians are taking the jobs at the cost of Marathis. The same Sena recently attacked North Indians for replacing Marathis in every sphere of activity.

Where is the question of Muslims alone getting discriminated?

Abdul Kalam, Premji, Zakir Hussain, Ansari, Fakruddin Ali Ahamed, Ahmed Patel, Omar, Farook, Dilip Kumar, Saira BANU, Javed Akhtar, Shabna Azmi, Azaruddin, Pataudi Mansur Ali Khan, Zakir Khan, Shami, the list is endless – they are not Hindus.

India has the largest number of Muslim MLAs, MPs, Ministers, Judges, Lawyers, Doctors, Vice-chancellors, Bank Chairmen, Chief Justices, Election commissioners – you name any job -you will find persons from Muslim community.  In Bangladesh, the maximum a Hindu can expect is a clerical job in government.  And in Pakistan, even that cannot happen.

There books have come on the genocide of Hindus in Bangladesh.  The latest is by Richard Benkins.

Muslims treat the minorities badly.  But want the best treatment from the majority when they are in minority. What a stupid approach. And Prithipal Singh of the Alberta University Canada said THAT MUSLIMS WILL ALWAYS ACT AS AN OPPRESSIVE MAJORITY AND A TURBULENT MINORITY.

When in the 80s, while working in Bombay, I read an article in a business weekly that 126 professions and trades, are controlled by Muslims only and they will not allow anybody to enter their domain. So much for appeasement.

The Bollywood industry is controlled by the Khans, Alis, Akhtars etc. – disproportionate to the population of Muslims.  Akhtar is silent on this.

And Shabna Azmi told about her not getting the housing she desired, there was torrent of information to the effect that it was for her 4th house. Let us not play politics in trivialities.

We had Muslim cricket captains – Mansur Ali Khan and Azaruddin etc. When Azharuddin was questioned on match-fixing, he immediately cried that he is being fixed because HE IS a Muslim.  So much patriotism.  Pakistan and Bangladesh have a cricket team with 11 members of Hindu cricketers. What an appeasement!

Zaveri Bazar, Bhendi Bazar and so many places, Muslim traders have a very strong presence.  In fact, Muslims, even if they are educated, prefer trading and other activities.  They do not prefer a 10 to 5 office job.  Since they have many children, even if the father earns rupees 50,000 a month, it has to be shared between 8 to 10 members.  So they are unable to raise their standard of living.  Who is to blame?

We have more mosques than the whole of Middle East put together.  Another appeasement policy.

800 Valmikis were forced to convert to Islam, because, if they fail to covert, their houses will be razed down. This happened in UP as per newspaper report. You can cross check it for authentication.

And Akhtar says, Muslims are in very bad position. Why add the numbers with conversion.  You are causing agony to the converted members also.

Akhtar must think – why Huntington said that Muslims can never co-exist with other religionists?  Why Will Durant said that the greatest genocide on earth was the killing of 100 million Hindus by the marauding Moguls during their rule over India for 800 years. Appeasement. Why Ambedkar told Gandhi to send back all Muslims to Pakistan after partition, since he felt that Muslims can never co-exist with Hindus.

Why Rajendra Prasad said that if Muslims are not sent back, they should be disenfranchised.

Why in the name of Khilafat movement, Muslims slaughtered more than 2000 Malayali’s in Kerala?  Appeasement?

Why Muslims burnt alive, a compartment load of women and children in Godhra?  Appeasement.

Why Muslims never talk about the fact that 259 Hindus were killed in Gujarat riots? Appeasement.

Why Teesta and other Muslims ran to America to deny visa to Modi, knowing well that Christians have slaughtered millions of Muslims in Iran, Iraq, Syria, Egypt, Afghan etc.

Akhtar must know that India is the only country in the world where Muslims are enjoying uninterrupted democracy.

What rights Hindus have, as minority, in Pakistan, Bangladesh, Saudi, Iran, Iraq, Kashmir valley etc, regarding religion, education, politics etc.

Muslims have religious based reservation in their own institutions – 100% and apart from this, they enjoy OBC status to get into State and Central government.

Akhtar must read the MAJORITY REPORT, by Ohri retired IPS.  He has clearly proved with facts and figures that Muslims are way ahead of Hindus in many parameters.

When 62% of Indians live in 20 rupees a day, when 60% of the Indians answer the calls in open sky, when 60% of Indian womenfolk have no access to sanitary napkins, where is the question of Muslim poverty or Muslim appeasement?

Will Akhtar tell, why not a single Muslim has emigrated to Pakistan or Bangladesh?

India is the only country in the world – which welcomed the Parsis, Christians, Muslims, Jews etc., with open heart and love and affection.  Recently one Parsee gentleman told a reporter that Muslims and Christians are making the mistake of doing conversion and not joining the mainstream.  Israel Parliament’s first resolution was THANKING HINDUS AND INDIA. THE RESOLUTION SAID THAT INDIA IS THE ONLY PLACE IN THE WORLD, WHERE JEWS WERE NOT PERSECUTED.

Nobody should bite the hand that feeds.

Of course, what can we expect from the people who say, kill the kafir, kill the kafir, 5 times a day.

Akhtar and TOI are doing disservice to India.  Instead of working for amity between religions, they are creating fissure which is very bad for the democracy. YOU MUST WORK FOR THE PRINCIPLE ALL ARE INDIANS FIRST AND INDIANS LAST.

I am also, attaching two articles which should be an eye-opener to Akhtar and TOI

Thanking you,

Yours sincerely

Time to Hold India’s Media Legally Accountable

Brannon Parker

17 April 2015

This is an excerpt from one of my books titled, ‘Orissa in the Crossfire – Kandhamal Burning.’

This is the same book that the Indian Parliamentarian and Congress Party leader Digvijaya Singh demanded be banned for allegedly being a cause of community strife.

However that be, the fact that there is a direct correlation between violent mayhem and the media’s actions has been established repeatedly. I therefore call for India’s media to be held accountable for its many crimes against society.

This can be done by using the Indian court system based upon the precedent of setting convictions conducted by the United Nations International Criminal Tribunal’s Rwandan Media Trial.  The trial was known as the Rwandan Media Case.

These precedent-setting convictions have established the standard regarding those that abuse the power of the media and disturb and disrupt civil society.

India’s mainstream media has long been at the forefront of sowing seeds of mayhem and chaos across the nation.

Rather than my writings, it is the Indian media which is blatantly setting Indian society against itself. Thus such publications and journalists must be held accountable and convicted for their crimes.

The fact is anyone who reads ‘Orissa in the Crossfire’ will see that I did not pit one group against another nor did I condemn any religion or ethnic group. But I did expose many crimes, criminals, mass corruption and the many conspiracies, groups and personalities that are actively engaged in a brutal campaign against India.

Recently, India’s Minister of External Affairs VK Singh characterized the mainstream media as Prostitutes, who ignored his major international humanitarian rescue mission in Yemen. Yet this same Press attempted to accuse him of damaging the morale of the Indian Army.

The basis of this bizarre claim?

The Minister had attended a Pakistan Day celebration at the Pakistani Embassy. Despite this being an annual event that the Indian Government has often attended, the media created an artificial scandal aimed at damaging the morale of India’s armed forces. This is pure sedition. It is high time the Indian judicial system tackled this destabilizing force that is traumatizing the country.

Perhaps the precedent-setting UN Rwandan Media Case has applicability within the Indian court system as well. The following excerpts are from the chapter entitled ‘A Medium for Chaos.’

Obfuscation: ‘To totally obscure with non-germane information in a verbose manner, with the intent to provide a non-answer, and provide total befuddlement.’

This perfectly illustrates the modus operandi of the Indian media.

India’s media is in a league of its own. It presents itself as beholden to none. It claims itself to be the voice of reason, the conscience of the system and guardian of the public weal. Though this ideal is at the basis of a responsible media, India’s media is infamously and obviously far removed from such a role. The pattern and record speaks for itself. A graphic example would be the anti-Bihari riots in Assam. A false story detailing a Bihari’s rape of an Assamese girl led to a public response leading to much violence, injury, destruction and death.

Despite the media’s role in initiating the mayhem, the obvious disconnect between the law, social welfare concerns, the people and the media, no action nor resolution was taken.

The powers that be, behind the media, continued as before untouched by the law and uncaring towards the plight of a victimized people.

The media is clearly being used as a weapon against the RSS and affiliated Hindu organizations.  Rather than being the fourth estate of civil society, India’s media is more like a bludgeon.

It decides what is relevant to its pre-scripted scenarios and cherry picks information to fit into its preordained scripts.

This propaganda is then disseminated and imposed upon the public and the designed perceptions popularized as fact.

India’s media has long abandoned its responsibility as a medium for information, events and facts. In a manipulative process, the Indian media trivializes the profound and sensationalizes the profane.

On a recent research visit to Govardhan in Uttar Pradesh on the last day of the Hindu holy month of Kartik, a full moon was in the sky. Thousands upon thousands of pilgrims were circumambulating the sacred Govardhan hill. In an endless march beginning from the predawn hours until late evening, thousands of Hindu pilgrims circled the sacred mount. In a massive display of the living and ancient Indian culture, people of all ages, including entire families walked bedecked in colorful clothes. The excitement was tangible. Such a massive event inspired no mention in the media.

For the media, it was a non-event. Coming from the same media that highlights every minor gathering of Leftist politicians and religious minority groups, such bias by the media is intentional.

By constantly disenfranchising the Hindus, distorting their words and denigrating their efforts, the media is the primary cause of social chaos and political mayhem. The same media that projects itself as a voice of concern provides the rationale for oppression.

In America this same method was applied against the great American Indian leaders of the 1800s who struggled to defend their culture, people and lands. In every case, without fail, it was the media which provided the sensational and gruesome tales of massacres of ‘innocent white women and children at the hands of the Red Savages’.

The media-induced frenzy and uproar that followed led to organized lynch mobs and groups of US soldiers bent on murder.

American Indian tribes were ruthlessly massacred, ethnically cleansed and imprisoned by the thousands. As the brutal aggression continued, the media provided the rationale within a context of law and order. By completely ignoring the injustices, the brutal acts of violence, rapes, murders and loss of land and water rights that instigated the trouble, the media distorted the historical underpinnings involved.

With a focus on the effect and denial of the cause, the media becomes a powerful tool and weapon against a targeted group. Guns alone do not create genocide.

This conclusion was reached by the United Nations International Criminal Tribunal.

In reference to the media’s complicity in the violence, the Tribunal declared, ‘Without a firearm, machete or any physical weapon you, (Nahimana founder of Rwanda’s RTLM, Radio TV des Milles Collines) caused the death of thousands of innocent civilians.’

The media case as it was known, was conducted by the UNICTR or the ‘United Nations International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda’ and presided over by Judge Navanetham Pillay. The historic ruling clearly delineated the responsibilities and consequential role of the media.

‘The power of the media to create and destroy fundamental human values comes with great responsibility. Those who control such media are accountable for its consequences.’ (CCCLXXXIV)

This important, precedent-setting landmark case has been virtually forgotten and suppressed. For some in India, the media is the weapon of choice.

The implications of the Rwanda Media Case are far reaching and significant. Such a legal mechanism based upon this landmark Rwanda Media Case would no doubt be of great benefit to the Indian authorities, law professionals and overall socio-political climate. Freedom of the Press does not refer to the freedom to oppress.

In the landmark case, the UN convicted three Rwandan media personalities for ‘genocide, incitement to genocide, conspiracy and crimes against humanity-extermination and persecution.’

The verdict is clear and the precedent set.

The Indian media has been clearly and repeatedly implicated as a cause of violence and mayhem. It is widely recognized for its ruthless and biased approach towards news reporting.

The Indian media has also been implicitly involved in stirring up tension and fear amongst the people in a manner nearly identical to the UN Media Case.

India would do well to challenge its media to create rather than destroy fundamental human values. The Indian media should be held to account for the consequences of its actions.

Excerpt from – ” Godhra – The True Story ” – Nicole Elfie

“- – -By contrast, a genuine, on-the-spot investigation was conducted under the aegis of the New Delhi-based Council for International Affairs and Human Rights.[15]

Its findings were made public as early as April 26th, 2002, through a press conference held in Delhi. Running counter to the politically correct line of an “orchestrated attack, ” they were largely ignored by the media.

On March 3rd, 2002 the five-member fact-finding team under Justice Tewatia’s direction went to Godhra and spent six days visiting three affected areas in Ahmedabad and some of the relief camps. At all places, team members interacted with the two communities freely, without intervention of any officials. Five delegations from both communities presented their facts and views. The team then went to the Godhra railway station and interviewed officials, survivors and witnesses of the burning of the S-6 coach, as well as the fire brigade staff. They met the Godhra District Collector, along with other officials.

On April 4th, the team was in Vadodara (Baroda) visiting five relief camps of both communities, and seven areas which were the scenes of violence in the preceding month, as well as a number of sensitive areas. To have exposure to the ground realities they visited some areas still under curfew and also met the Commissioner of Police and District Collector along with other officials. Thirteen delegations consisting of 121 citizens met the team and presented their testimonies; they included not only members of both communities, but ranged from the Association of Hoteliers to a group of Gujarati tribal (Vanavasis).

“Indisputable” facts

Let us quote some findings of Justice Tewatia’s Inquiry Commission, which its report described as “indisputable”:

About the media:

  • Gujarati language media was factual and objective. Yet its propensity to highlight the gory incidents in great detail heightened communal tension.
  • English language newspapers … appeared to have assumed the role of crusaders against the State [Gujarat] Government from day one. It colored the entire operation of news gathering, feature writing and editorials. They distorted and added fiction to prove their respective points of view. The code of ethics prescribed by the Press Council of India was violated … with impunity. It so enraged the citizens that several concerned citizens in the disturbed areas suggested that peace could return to the state only if some of the TV channels were closed for some weeks.

http://www.jaia-bharati.org/nicole-elfi/ni-godhra-ang.htm

[COMMENT:]  Having viewed all the Channels during that period, I have no hesitation in stating that the two ‘Most Guilty’ of going against all canons of journalistic ethics were – Barkha Dutt & Rajdeep Sardesai. Both were from NDTV whose telecast was through Star NewsChannel at that juncture.

But then this is India. Both roam free to date – Nira Radia tapes be damned!!]

Excerpt from the book: “Marxism and the Writing of Indian History”

– By: Shankar Saran

India First Foundation (2007)

Chapter 4: ” Romila Thapar and the Image of India ”  (pp: 70-98)

“Brannon Parkar is a white American from the USA living in the Hawaii Iskands. He has great interest in Indian History. After reading many strange things of every kind about Indian History in the American schools, Parkar began his own research. Ultimately he reached the conclusion that most of the WRONG INFORMATION about India’s past had reached America via Indian authors themselves, especially through the books penned by [Eminent Historian] Romila Thapar.

Which is why Parkar felt annoyed when, in April 2003, the U.S. Congress Library appointed Romila Thapar to its prestigious Kluge Centre for research on the awareness of History in Ancient India. He resented such a waste of public money. He did not think it fit to remain silent. He wrote a letter to the U.S. Congress:

“What Romila Thapar will present after research is already clear. She is obsessed with anti-Hindu and Marxist ideologies and has already spread much confusion about India. Then why waste public money for a determined Marxist onslaught on Hindu civilization? Hindu civilisation is the most ancient and most important civilization in the world and much can be learnt from it. Why justify dishonoring it? As a FRIEND OF INDIA – I OPPOSE IT. ”

[COMMENT: From many written accounts it is clear that Romila Thapar’s speciality was ‘Ancient India “. It is also clear that the lingua franca of ‘Ancient India’ was SANSKRIT. It is also amply clear from written records that Romila Thapar does not know a word of SANSKRIT. The question that arises is: What was her ‘Padma Bhushan’ research based on? Evidently NOT from primary sources. Then ONLY from secondary sources. And thus she becomes an ‘EMINENT HISTORIAN’. Regret to say, P.N. Haksar and Nurul Hasan have inflicted grievous damage to India by packing the intellectual institutions of the ’70s with Marxist ideologues. This is also well chronicled.]

The Virus of Islam: Can It Be Cured?

Amil Imani

08 April 2015

Risking the violation of political correctness, decades of closely and carefully studying Islam, has led me to the following observation:

Islam is a socio-cultural viral disease that invades any vulnerable host with its malignancy, while simultaneously devouring its own adherents.

In other words, Islam is like a deadly, contagious disease. Once it invades the mind of its victim, this debilitating disease is capable of transforming him or her to a helpless pawn that has no choice but to execute what he or she is directed to do.

Of the reported 1.6 billion Muslims in the world, millions are already trapped in the terminal stages of this affliction, while millions of others are rapidly joining them.

The people enslaved with the extreme cases of Islamic mental disease are highly infectious. They actively work to transmit the disease to others, while they themselves engage in horrific acts of mayhem and violence to demonstrate their unconditional obedience to the dictates of the Islamic cult of violence; For example, the Islamic State or “ISIS/ISIL.”

Islam like a mental retrovirus has mutated into numerous varieties and degrees of severity over the past 1, 400 years. Everyone born in a Muslim family, as well as those who convert to Islam, contract a particular mutation of the Islamic virus. As is the case with all retroviruses, the Islamic virus burrows deeply into the person and erupts, from time-to-time with potentially devastating consequences.

The Islamic virus first divests the person of his most fundamental human attribute. It takes away his right to make decisions himself and absolves him and in return, of any responsibility for his actions rendered in blind obedience to it.

The founder of Islam, Mohammad, insured the faith would remain on its intended mission by providing it with its manual of murder and mayhem, the Quran.

The Quran is the incubator of the virus of Islam, and Muslims are the carriers of this disease who communicates it to others while they themselves simultaneously are devoured by it.

Even a cursory glance at Islam clearly shows a history of lashing out at non-Muslim societies under the direct leadership of Muhammad, a practice that has remained on its mission to this day. This inherent divisiveness is clearly evident by the internecine violence within the ranks of believers commencing immediately following the death of Muhammad.

At the global level, the pathology and cognitive derangement systemic to Islam have given rise to the world’s most intolerant, backward, and impoverished societies.

It is in the very design of Islam to engage in violence. Muslims find ready justifications in the Quran–a book they believe authored word for word by the one and only creator of the universe, Allah–to do so. To a Muslim, anyone, even others who profess the same faith, can be a legitimate target of violence since there is no unifying Islamic doctrine, while the Quran is greatly amenable to self-serving interpretation.

It is indeed simplistic to contend that Islamic terrorism is Islam’s problem and that it is self-defeating or it will eventually defeat itself. Islamic terrorism is indeed that aspect of Islam that has lashed out toward the non-Muslim world from its inception. It is seen when the Islamic armies sallied out of the Arabian Peninsula to vanquish by the sword people far and near. It is indeed a great folly and a pathological denial of reality for the world to turn a blind eye to the ever-virulent acting-out characteristic of Islam, irrespective of its different forms and various degrees of its severity and duration.

As is the case with contagious disease, there is no minimal level of acceptable risk. The only acceptable risk with virulent Islam is its complete decimation. Otherwise, jihadism will raise its head time and again and inflict its deadly venom on its victims.

Islam itself is a vestige of a long-ago primitive people who lived and died by the sword. Muslims do not recognize the legitimacy of coexistence. They never have, and the Quran explicitly divides the world into two camps: The believers and the non-believers. And it is the sacred duty of the believers to cleanse Allah’s world of all non-Muslims.

In short, Islam is indeed a deadly, socio-cultural communicable virus that is immune to general methods of treatments. The Islam virus has mutated into numerous forms immediately upon the death of its creator. This mutated disease shares only a common name, such as the term used for describing the common cold.

In actual fact, Islam is about destruction within itself as well as the “other.”

Islam’s Useful Idiots

Islam enjoys a large and influential ally among the non-Muslims: A new generation of ‘Useful Idiots, ‘ the sort of people Lenin identified living in liberal democracies who furthered the work of communism.

This new generation of Useful Idiots also lives in liberal democracies, but serves the cause of Islam fascism—another virulent form of totalitarian ideology.

Subject: Subhash Chandra Bose

Thank you Shri Chelvapila,

Your feelings too were so spontaneous one can appreciate! He was a leader of different mettle; an example setter and a military Leader! Which Indian has made such history, or any other with such cause? Even Washington had a home base, and Netaji not even trained as a military man! Here the tenacity and patriotism of the Indian peasant irrespective of his religion, the backbone of British Indian Army, is the only glowing example left that we have to emulate in turbulent times of today! The fault lines are looking in the face dangerously by each day by each shuddering   example!

Thank you also for the details you sent which I am sure most will not know! I had immediately after my retirement in 93 made a visit to his house and met  Shri Sishir Bose who  gave me photographic material which we have used for rural school children just excited about Netaji but have no exposure  on him! Because his image has been muffled for fear of eclipsing the material we have today branded Neta.   Imagine this nation has remained insensitive and so indifferent to slight  that his mystery amounts to  and we did not budge to  get at the bottom of his disappearance  except for kangaroo inquires, even digesting rumors of his becoming a  sadhu  which many believe! The plea taken to keep his files inaccessible under provisions of Official Secrets act is itself explosive!!

In still denying people, access to information directly related to their very struggle against an enemy to unshackle their colonial stranglehold and step into freedom.  That this information which is specifically about the Leader spearheading this struggle, was a state secret when and if held by the enemy is undisputable. That this ceases to be secret but a life-force historical documentation of national value the moment people stepped into freedom and became custodians of their own heritage is also undisputable and cannot be contested.

What are we implying therefore by appointing a committee of minsters as is being done to examine the propriety of this, is that we are still under Imperial watch and constraints!!  When instead we must question why this history has not, after 15th Aug 47, already become part of learning curriculum as reminder to generations about Netaji’s unique contribution unparalleled in our annals. We smack of total destitution in self pride no matter how much we race for frills of materialism! Would his files upset the apple cart!

Subject: Netaji

Dear Sri Maj. Gen. Chauhan,

Your account of Netaji is very moving. Though there was no personal  contact, tears came to my eyes too when I read an account published long time back about Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, then ambassador to USSR was taken to see Netaji in prison. It was so arranged Netaji would not be aware of Radhakrishnan’s visit and observation. Radhakrishnan filed his report to Nehru.  To think that a hero who sacrificed everything, and a brilliant pragmatic intellectual who passed his ICS examination with distinction unlike Nehrus, been seen imprisoned, we do not know what condition he was in at the time,  created a scene in mind bringing tears to eyes. There was no mention of how Radhakrishnan felt. Adding to tragedy are revelations that are coming out but hinted at several times in the past as well about Nehru’s indifference to Netaji’s fate, may be culpability too in cahoot with Stalin. The letter he wrote to British PM Attlee to do needful to a war criminal in custody of ally of British, Stalin does not lead to any other impression than Nehru’s wish not to have Netaji come out alive.

CIA declassified papers of that era by OSA, its predecessor, relating to Netaji. They can be obtained by any one requesting them for a small fee. In one of the papers there was a copy of a letter from American consul in Bombay inquiring about possible effect of Netaji’s return to India on Nehru’s government. There were also some papers about information fed by Communists spying on movements of Netaji.  Decades back these papers were collected and sent to Samar Guha MP.

With all suspicions raised then and now as well as to what really happened to Netaji, needless to say will be of great historical importance that will give us proper perspective perhaps to correct the course of future instead of still laboring under false impression of winning freedom non-violently, by getting rid of myths around Nehrus and Gandhis perhaps woven deliberately to cover up their Himalayan blunders which included conceding partition.

Enclosed also is a brief account of that brilliant personality, Subhash Chandra Bose  who had clear vision about how to win freedom as well as clairvoyant mind about himself. Had he been leading the nation at the formative stage soon after independence was granted along with parting kick of partition, history would have been entirely different for the good of the country.

Best wishes,                                                                                                                                                                                                   G V Chelvapilla

Things Most Indians Don’t Know About Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose

BY KULDEEP CHAUHAN

Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose’s slogan of “You give me blood, I’ll give you Freedom” ignited the fire of patriotism in the hearts of many Indians during the struggle for independence. Even today these words don’t fail to inspire and move. The man who coined these words was a true patriot and a man of principle who did all he could to bring independence to India. Here are 7 things worth knowing about this great man that are hardly known to most Indians, including the patriots:

  1. He Was a Brilliant Student and Highly Patriotic Since Childhood:

Bose was born into a large family in Orissa. From childhood he was a brilliant child and who did very well in studies. He was also a fierce patriot right from his early days. He came in 2nd in his matriculation exams in 1913. He completed his B.A. in Philosophy with a First Class score in 1918. His patriotism had come to fore when he was expelled from Presidency College for assaulting Professor Oaten for his anti-India comments.

1920 Subhash Chandra Bose as student

  1. He Came 4th in ICS Exams:

After completing his graduation he went to England to appear in the Indian Civil Services exams to fulfill the promise he had made to his father. As expected he performed brilliantly and came in 4th on the merit list. This however did not please him much as he didn’t want to work for the government that he had grown to hate. The Jalianwalla Bagh massacre had left a mark on his memory and in 1921 he resigned from ICS while still undergoing his internship.

Friends

Here is my reaction to Maroof Raza’s talk on Indo Pak relations sometime back I forget the link but would be available on U tube. I think Amit referred this me. The snippet below prompted me to add and I also see a lot between the lines that converges to the situation today why Netaji’s files still remain of top secret!  There were a number of INA survivors  in villages around my home town and during one of the ex-soldiers meet I met one in 90s  I think who was still so clear in his fond memory of that leader  that tears came to my eyes  when my thought flashed to what we have  today!!

Friends,

One is not surprised at this delusory snippet spreading disinformation off the cuff taking the uninformed reader into a Bollywood style scene. Wars are not won by such momentary theatrics by Staff officers who are nowhere on ground. Not that Lt Gen Jacob did not say all that is attributed to him   the fact is this was a closing act before curtains came down. Dacca was already ‘invested’ Pak had lost the war and it was a matter of time that advancing columns closed in. How could Niazi hold on even with 30000 troops locked in 5000 kms away from western wing no air no naval cover? Credit goes to only one field commander who bounced the Meghna in lightening move and overran Pak defenses based on this taking the rest by surprise. Then it was a clear run.  Lt Gen Sagat Singh who comes out as the only general apart from Sam Manekshaw recognised for his Generalship that Indian Army ever produced so far! This is from professional study on Generalship initiated by USI.

Lt Gen Jacob was more of a ‘political’ General like Gen VK Singh hoisted by BJP which he exploited to the fullest at great advantage to Israel, he a dedicated Jew who finally settled   there after distinguished service to that country!  Indians excel in serving others and still pretend we are running a nation (why there is diffidence in exposing Netaji files!).  During his post retirement period he was a governor but also shuttling between Israel and India fixing arms deals.  Thousands of crores worth ordnance was purchased in panic after Kargil and dumped which came as blessing for their arms industries .Here is the secret why a country which can send a probe to moon cannot after 7 decades even make a rifle that will sell when Pashtun tribesman can challenge the industrial Kalashnikov with homemade version; not hard to understand. Indians love to be middlemen, paymaster beneficiaries which helps to run our money market democracy and black money regime whichever the government or party. We were never used to running a country never did where the need now! Easy to buy collect gratitude or invite substitutes after declaring our capability useless a fine handle by moles. When lawyer Jetly was RM his open statement that HAL and other public sector outfits are useless must be closed down was tantamount to subversion.  Strategic assets and establishments must never be privatized if we mean business but made accountable private expertise made subordinated support.

Apparently Fauji magazine which is a Maroof Raza enterprise has chosen to comment selectively and smartly to insert a political rather than professional interjection. Having gone through a video by Raza on Indo Pak  issue one amazed at  the level of political penetration in all walks of life making one so  dull  that ready to applaud at anything that comes ones way .    Here is a Jewish inspired ‘fauji.’

Subject: RE: FIELD MARSHALL SAM MANEKSHAW, MC

Fd Marshal Manekshaw’s stature cannot be denied as India’s biggest military leader…. but the real credit to swift victory in 1971 war goes to Lt Gen JFR Jacob who was chief of staff Eastern Command. Though it is difficult to believe how and why… read how…

♢♢♢♢♢♢♢♢♢♢♢♢♢♢♢♢♢♢♢♢♢

The historic Last Minutes that led to surrender on December 16, 1971 in Dhaka

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

Niazi had told Jacob that he had 30,000 troops in Dacca, whereas the Indian forces outside Dacca numbered a mere 3000.

Jacob informed Niazi that he could not give Pakis any better terms, than what was given in the draft surrender document.

If they surrendered, Jacob said, he would ensure the protection of armed forces, paramilitary and ethnic minorities, as well as Pakistani civilians.

However, if Niazi declined, then Jacob obviously could not guarantee their safety. Jacob further informed then that if the terms of the surrender were not accepted, then he would have no option but to order the resumption of hostilities.

Jacob then said that he would give Niazi and his men thirty minutes to consider and walked out.

Jacob returned after thirty minutes and asked Niazi whether he accepted the document. Niazi did not answer and had tears in his eyes.

Jacob asked him three times if he accepted the terms of surrender, there wasn’t any answer.

There was dead silence all around. Jacob then picked up the document, held it high and said, “I TAKE IT AS ACCEPTED.”

Jacob then informed Niazi that he would have to surrender in public, in front of the people of Dacca in the Race Course.

In addition, Niazi would have to provide an Honor Guard.

About 1630 hrs. The entourage of the Army Commander landed in Dacca and proceeded to the Ramna Race Course, inspecting the Honor Guard and thereafter signing the Instrument of Surrender.

Subsequently, around 93,000 Pakistani troops and officials were taken as prisoners-of-war by the Indian Army, the largest number of POWs since World War II. They were later repatriated in 1973 under the terms of the Delhi Agreement.

Raising Children to be Soldiers of Allah

Subject: Raising Children to be Soldiers of Allah

Islamophobia is sweeping the world. It is keeping it’s the momentum.

Therefore, O Freedom Lovers, please help annihilate Islamic / jihadi terrorists.  Demolish “madrasas” (Muslim educational schools which teach young Muslims to hate other religions & love only Islam!!!

(The kafir democracies of the world can and need to amend their construction declaring Islam illegal. Any other way is not likely to work. – Skanda987)

For God’s sake, let everybody realize the grave implications of Islamists being given the freedom.

Islam is a religion of hate ideology…it is not repeat not a religion of peace…do not be misguided on this by Muslims…their religious book==Quran==encourages jihadi terrorism and wants the infidels ( non-Muslims ) to be harshly treated with iron rods unless they agree to become Muslims and  killed …can you beat it???  Yes, the Qur’anic verses say so…how then are the non-Muslims getting fooled and getting converted to Islam?? Its damn shame…Islamic suicide terrorists are lured to explode bombs with an assurance to be given a place in heaven with virgin girls and boys too to ostomies…..as if the god is only meant for Muslims and he will be partial to Muslims only. .. What a non-sense is being preached by Muslim clerics!!!

MADRASAS, the Muslim educational school where Muslim children are brain washed and radicalized, must be banned and the fanatic Muslims who try to galvanize Muslims or attempt to convert persons to ISLAM must be severely dealt with.  There cannot be an easy treatment for such Jihadi Islamic terrorists…Let there be no mistake. Strike them down with all the force at one’s command or else it would be too late. ISLAMOPHOBIA is sweeping the whole world. Strike it down with vengeance or else it would be disastrous if Mushrooming of MADRASAS OR EFFORTS TO RADICALISE THE MUSLIMS IS NOT CHECKED.  Do not allow construction of Mosques because these are yet another center points for Islamic Terrorists.  BEWARE, BEWARE, & BEWARE BEFORE YOU ARE BETRAYED.

To a Muslim, his religion is more sacred than the patriotism / nationalism to the country of his residence/ nationality. For a Muslim, his sole aim is to ISLAMISE THE NON-ISLAMIC COUNTRY. And introduce SHARIAAT, Islamic laws!!! How terrible!!! ..To do so, they (Muslims) will try to change the demography by increasing the Muslim population by marrying 4 wives and producing more kids. It is time that Non-Muslims stop their liberal attitude towards Muslims for such a lenience  is propelling Muslim Clerics to proselytization, conversion of Non-Muslims to Islam, construction of Mosques which provide shelter to Islamic Terrorists and start “Madrasas”, the Muslim educational schools where young Muslims are radicalized. Visit these schools. Take a look at what is being taught in these schools and it would be clear. It is time that strict control is exercised and stop efforts to Islamize the countries with Sharia laws introduced…There cannot be multiple laws in the country. THERE NEEDS TO BE ONLY ONE LAW FOR THE WHOLE COUNTRY, PASSED BY THE PARLIAMEN. If these do not suit the Muslims then they should leave the country and find another country where they would be more at ease with Sharia Laws…

Islamist Groups Plan “Islamic State” in the Indian Subcontinent

March 27, 2015

From: D C Nath < >

Dear Friends,

Subject: Islamist Groups Plan “Islamic State” in the Indian Subcontinent

Here is a very significant piece of information from the Bengali daily, “Dainik Statesman” of March 25, 2015, originating from Dhaka.

The facts stated in it are like:

A few known terrorist outfits from Bangladesh, India, Pakistan and Mayanmar have decided to form an “Islamic State” in this subcontinent.

The main force behind is JMB (Jamaat-ul-Mujahideen of Bangladesh. ISIS s providing full support.

The name of the proposed body has been decided to be, “Islamic Law and Order Force of Hindustan.”

Those aligned to this group are: Harkat-ul-Jihad, Hizbut Tahrir, JMB and Ansarullah Bangla Team.

The group leaders had held a secret meeting in Bangladesh in October last year. A senior Syrian ISIS leader was present in the meeting.

The formation of an Islamic Khilafat in this subcontinent was the major topic for discussion.

The target date for the formation of the “Islamic Law and Force of Hindustan is 2020 by creating an armed revolution/ sabotage from within.

The assessment of the group is: the major obstacles before them currently are the internal security agencies of Bangladesh like RAB (Rapid Action Battalion) and the senior leaders from the Armed Forces, Border Guard and Police.

The leaders are in touch with each other through cell phones and emails.

All this information has been gathered from the former student leader of the Jaamat, namely, Ershad Hossain Mamun, who has been arrested on March 23, 2015.

Friends, it is worth noting how well and how much in advance, they make preparation to achieve their objective. This also fits in with the broad framework of what all we had discussed in our program of the 21st March at the IIC.

We do hope the government in the Centre is duly seized with the serious threat potential from what has come out in this report. A copy of this mail is separately sent to the Ministry of Home Affairs and the National Security Advisor for action as thought fit.

(Note: For those who read Bengali, a scanned copy of the concerned press report is attached.)

Vandemataram!

Your sevak!

Challenging Islam’s License to Kill?

Challenging Islam’s License to Kill

By Mark Durie

 

FrontPage Magazine

March 25, 2015

 

Originally published under the title, “Challenging Islam’s Warrant to Kill.”

 

(The non-Muslims cannot challenge it because they have no authority over Muslims.  They are not an Authority in Islam.  However, they can, and must declare Islam illegal in their kafir democracies. – Skanda987)

 

Last week the Islamic State’s ‘Hacking Division’ released the names and addresses of one hundred US military personnel. It urged the ‘brothers residing in America’ – i.e. American Muslims – to ‘deal with’ them, which is to say, it wants them killed.

 

There is much talk these days of radicalization and de-radicalization. At the heart of both processes are religious ideas: theological dogmas. What are some of the key theological principles that might cause a Muslim to take this call seriously? What is the Islamic reasoning given by the IS Hacking Division in support of its call to kill non-Muslims?

 

The Hacking Division quote two verses of the Qur’an:

  • Sura 9:123 ‘fight believers who are near to you,’ and
  • Sura 9:14 ‘Fight them; Allah will punish them by your hands and will disgrace them and give you victory over them, and satisfy [actually yashfi ‘heal’] the breasts of a believing people’.

 

The meaning of these two verses hangs upon the word qātilū, translated here as ‘fight’. The verbal root q-t-l from which qātilū is formed means ‘kill’, so the Arabic actually means ‘fight to kill’ (see discussion here). These Qur’anic verses truly are commands to kill non-Muslims.

 

The second quoted verse, from Sura 9:14, puts forward a view concerning what Muslims should do about emotional pain and anguish they may experience because of unbelievers. ‘Allah’, the verse says, ‘will heal the breasts’ of Muslims, – and then the sentence continues into the next verse – ‘and remove the rage of their hearts’.

 

Persuading Muslims to take the words of Muhammad seriously is the core strategy of radicalization.

 

The key concept here is that if Muslims have strong feelings, including anger, against non-Muslims, their emotional distress will subside and be ‘healed’ as they kill, humiliate and triumph over non-believers. Strange therapy indeed for the human soul! According to the Qur’an, in order to secure inner ‘peace’, calm within the Muslim soul can be secured by shedding non-Muslim blood.

 

These are stock-standard verses used to urge Muslims to go for jihad against disbelievers. However what most caught my eye in the Hacking Division’s call to arms against infidels in America was but a reference to Muhammad’s teachings. The Hacking Division refers to hadith 4661 in a published English version of the Sahih Muslim (translated by Abdul Hamid Sidiqqi).

 

The Sahih Muslim is one of the most revered and authoritative sources for the teaching and example of Muhammad, whose life is considered exemplary and compulsory for Muslims to emulate. This particular hadith can be found on page 1263 of Volume 3 of the English edition:

 

 

Chapter 789 (DCCLXXXIX)

 

About a man who killed a disbeliever and embraced Islam.

(4661) It has been narrated on the authority of Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) said: A disbeliever and a believer who killed him will never be gathered together in Hell. [See here.]

 

This is a most significant statement. It is saying that if a Muslim kills a non-Muslim, they cannot both end up in hell. The alternative to hell is paradise, so in other words, killing a non-Muslim – who is destined for hell due to their unbelief – can provide a sure ticket to paradise for a Muslim.

 

This tradition is the authority for a view widely put about by jihadis, that if a Muslim personally gets to kill a disbeliever, the Muslim will gain paradise. Put together with the famous belief that for a Muslim to be ‘martyred’ in jihad opens the gates of paradise (see Sura 3:169-170; 9:111; and 22:58), fighting to kill non-Muslims can be a ticket to glory, win or lose. Either one kills and gains a get-out-of-hell free card, or one is killed and gains a get-into-paradise-free card. This is a win-win proposition for the jihadi.

 

Persuading Muslims to take the words of Muhammad seriously is the core strategy of radicalization. This tactic works as well as it does because it appeals to a plain reading of Islam’s holy texts.

 

To be de-radicalized, a Muslim needs to repudiate the theological authority of the teachings of Muhammad and the Qur’an. This is a hard call for pious Muslims. Ayaan Hirsi Ali was surely correct in her recent essay calling for reform of Islam when she wrote that the fundamental problem is that the majority of otherwise peaceful and law-abiding Muslims are unwilling to acknowledge, much less to repudiate, the theological warrant for intolerance and violence embedded in their own religious texts.

 

Hirsi Ali also declared:

 

We in the West need to challenge and debate the very substance of Islamic thought and practice. We need to hold Islam accountable for the acts of its most violent adherents and to demand that it reform or disavow the key beliefs that are used to justify those acts.

 

Hirsi Ali was right: The West needs to engage with and repudiate the Islamic dogmas that killing or being killed in murderous attacks against non-Muslims is some kind of golden key which unlocks the gates of paradise. Until these beliefs and the canonical teachings they rely on are acknowledged and repudiated, the lives of non-Muslims will continue to be discarded as the ‘ticket to paradise’ of Muslim belligerents.

 

Hadiths such as 4661 from Sahih Muslim, and the Qur’anic verses cited here are a genuine part of the Islamic canon. Such verses remain un-renounced and un-repudiated by a great many Muslims and Islamic institutions today.

 

As long as such texts are not repudiated, the theological winds of Islam will all too easily continue to sweep pious Muslim hearts and minds towards radicalization, a process which exalts the idea that the lives of infidels are disposable.

 

Islam’s warrant to kill infidels is an idea which deserves to be exposed, challenged, thoroughly debated, and rejected.

DOUBLE STANDARDS OF WESTERNERS

From: Mohan Natarajan < >

DEAR ALL,

 

DOUBLE STANDARDS OF WESTERNERS

———————————————————

Our minority controlled media and the treacherous western media, made a lot of noise when India banned the screening of India’s daughter.  BBC is shameless so also the Oxford University. INDIAN SECULARS SUPPORTED THE BBC, IN THE NAME OF FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION.

 

See the arrogance – they speak about freedom of speech but bans Swamy, fearing, he will expose the whites.  SHAME ON UK, SHAME ON INDIAN SECULARS.

 

I am enclosing a posting from another group, detailing the ban of Swamy and Rajiv.

Please disseminate.

 

With best wishes,

QUOTE

Oxford University bars Dr. Subramanian Swamy & Rajiv Malhotra –

Cancels lecture on “India’s Economy” & “Revisionist History”

 

The Human Rights Act 1998incorporates Article 9 of the European Convention on Human Rights into UK law.  Everyone has the right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion; this right includes freedom to change his religion or belief, and freedom, either alone or in community with others and in public or private, to manifest his religion or belief, in worship, teaching, practice and observance.

 

[And yet – – – – !!]

 

‘We are stunned that a leading British University that should be championing free speech and freedom of thought, has taken such a cowardly decision. We cannot allow the appeasement of extremists to stifle cherished values and I fear this decision will reflect very badly on Oxford University and their much publicized “free rigorous thinking” credentials.” Satish K Sharma, General Secretary, National Council of Hindu Temples (UK)

 

From this surprising cancellation, effectively banning Dr. Swamy and Shri Malhotra from speaking at Oxford University, we might reasonably conclude that the faculty of Oxford University, tasked with the responsibility of educating young impressionable minds, are incapable of communicating by personal example, the fundamental need for observance and protection of Human rights, especially the right to Freedom of Speech.

 

A statistical review of who has been barred and who has been welcomed may reveal an uncomfortable correlation and point to a persistent phenomenon concerning the clarity of vision and “discrimination-free” credentials of the senior members of the Oxford Academic Faculty, particularly it would seem when the rights being trampled underfoot are those of “brown skinned Hindus”.

OXFORD UNIVERSITY BUCKLES UNDER LEFTIST PRESSURE

 

Poulasta Chakraborthy

24 March 2015

 

For long I always thought of Oxford University as one of those hallowed sanctuaries where all viewpoints, no matter how eye-popping or scandalous, got acceptance. What else would explain the Oxford Union inviting the likes of far-right politicians like Marine Le Pen, as well as the famed Holocaust denier David Irving?

 

But my faith in Oxford as a supporter of free thought and speech received a rude jolt on 20 March, when a decision was taken to cancel the lectures on ‘Economic development over the years and new reforms needed to take India forward’ and ‘Rethinking India History based on the book Breaking India: Western Intervention in Dravidian and Dalit fault lines’, by Dr. Subramanian Swamy and Rajiv Malhotra citing “logistical and internal issues”.

 

The decision was supposed to have been taken after a series of meetings between prominent and influential members of Oxford University’s academic faculty and members of the Oxford India Society.

One interesting fact to notice here is that a petition opposing Subramanian Swamy and Rajiv Malhotra was raised on the popular site change.org, urging the Oxford India Society to cancel the invitation extended to them to speak on the aforementioned topics.

 

Now are these petitioners actually striving to prevent giving the Oxford platform to people they consider as bigots with extremist views? What are these extremist views these crusaders of decency are trying to prevent?

CHRISTIANITY AIMS AT THE COLLAPSE OF HINDUISM

From: Mohan Natarajan < >

 

Dear all

 

I am sending an excellent article. See how Christians are crying wolf, wolf

Blaming Modi, BJP, Hindus, for church vandalization without telling the truth.

But see, how devious they are. The article clearly spells out.

This type of article will never find a place in our minority controlled media.

 

With best wishes,

 

Mohan

 

‘India has always been a land of acceptance of diversity. But if the evangelical activities continue unabated, there is no doubt this will cause a backlash.’

 

‘One exclusive ideology begets another. The hit list will spread. The more strident the evangelists, the more strident the voices for Ghar Wapsi will grow,’ says Sankrant Sanu.

 

• Also read: Indian-American Christians want PM to walk the talk

 

A highly respected retired police officer, Julio Ribeiro, recently wrote a column saying that as an Indian Christian he felt like he was on a hit list. I respect Ribeiro’s feelings, even though, as analysis has shown (external link), these are not based on reality (external link).

 

There is little evidence of Christians in India being on any kind of hit list.

 

There is a hit list, but thankfully not with Ribeiro’s name on it. Unfortunately, I am on it, as are all non-Christian communities in India and throughout the world. This hit list is very systematically organized and is backed by vast monetary and state resources. Consider this description:

 

Did you know that the Sonar people of Maharashtra, India, are the primary crafters of gold and silver Hindu idols? These idols are the most powerful stronghold that Satan has upon the Hindu worshipers in India and around the world. When the Sonar people embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ, the subsequent change in their livelihood could have a huge ripple effect in the world of Hinduism. As one international Christian worker said, “When we reach the Sonar with the gospel, we will see the collapse of Hinduism.” Pray that the gospel would flow through and permeate the Sonar culture like molten silver fills a mold.’

 

The aim is spelled out. It is the ‘collapse of Hinduism’, and every single Hindu is a target. This quote is not from some fringe group, but from the official pages of the International Mission Board, the evangelism arm of the Southern Baptist Convention.

 

Southern Baptist Convention, who?

 

The Southern Baptist Convention was formed in the United States in 1845 mainly to create mission boards. It boasts of over 16 million members and runs 48 Baptist colleges and universities. It counts several past United States presidents among its members and its revenues from member contributions top $9 billion annually.

 

Then US president George W Bush addressed each of the convention’s last four annual meetings. But this is not just a Republican issue. Democrats like Jimmy Carter and Bill Clinton are Baptists too.

 

Not convinced yet? Let me introduce you to the Joshua Project (external link), the comprehensive hit list. Here is the target map (external link), in which red stands for ‘unreached people’, the biggest target on the hit list.

 

As you can see from that link, India is densely red.

 

Just wishful thinking? Hardly. This is fully operationalized, with vast resources behind it. Global Christianity is a $250 billion+ annual revenue machine with a large number of State and non-State actors. The funding for global evangelism’s hit list is nearly $50 billion annually. That is quite a supari.

 

You can helpfully filter as you wish. Yes, they now have 2,412 Hindu groups (up from 1,596 in the database a decade ago) on the hit list but their goals are not confined to ‘Satanic Hindoos’ alone. Do look it up. When I did a few years ago, I found this:

 

‘Among the targets — the small Akha group in Vietnam consisting of a mere 3,040 people following their ethnic traditions to the largest groups — the 13 million Sinhalese who follow Buddhism — only 4% of which have yet been converted according to the Joshua database. India contains the largest number of targeted groups. Sample targets — among the Buddhists — the 102,480 Bhotias in Sikkim, and the 47,030 Sherpas, the 162,210 Tibetan Buddhists and the 8,410,800 Marathi Nau Buddhists; the 3,165,200 Bania Jains; among the Muslims –the 9,796,100 Ansaris, the 6,938,600 Sayyids, the 894,690 Faqirs and the 112,420 Ganchis.’

 

‘The tribal religionists are, of course, the easiest targets, many of them having already been “reached” — a remaining sample include the Mongpa, all of 850 people, following Tibetan Himalayan customs. The Sikhs are another major target — further divided into 58 groups, from the 11,581,200 Jat Sikhs to the 880 Assamese Sikhs. Among the 1,596 Hindu target groups — the 3.4 million Aroras, the 53.5 million Yadavs, the 6.9 million Nairs, the Sonar community of nearly 6.5 million people to the barely 14,000 Kashmiri Hindu Zargars.’

 

To each of these thousands of target groups gets assigned church planting teams, missionaries, resources, funds, media support, Bibles in their language and dubbed versions of the ‘Jesus’ film (with children’s versions), now available in a staggering 877 languages. No other global corporate multinational could come close to a marketing campaign of this breadth.

 

Every native culture is on their target list, all must be brought to Christ. Why?

 

‘It is a vision that will be fulfilled, for Jesus said in Matthew 24:14, “The gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a witness to every nation and then the end will come.”

 

The goal is to bring about no less than the End of the World and Judgment Day when apparently Christians would bodily ascend to heaven and all other would be ‘Left Behind’ for the torment of hell.

 

You may not know this, but in the US there was an entire bestselling book series called Left Behind (external link) that described the rapture of heaven for the god-believing Christians and the torment of hell for incorrigible heathens like me who would be left behind.

 

That is quite a hit list. And the most fundamentalist of Christians — those that believe all other religions are Satanic — are the ones most active in the evangelism project.

 

The assault of evangelical Christianity is the spread of this exclusive right-wing Christian belief. But this is no fringe effort.

 

Here is the description from Tehelka (external link), no ‘Hindutva’ magazine, that was able to find the same data I did.

 

‘Religious expansionism has not witnessed this scale, scope, and state resources in a long time. Detailed investigations by Tehelka reveal that American evangelical agencies have established in India an enormous, well-coordinated and strategized religious conversion plan. At the heart of this complex and sophisticated operation is a simple strategy — convert locals and then give them the know-how and money to plant their own churches and multiply.’

 

‘A large-scale intelligence operation that brought together American strategists, theologians, missionary specialists, demographers, technologists, sociologists, anthropologists and researchers to create the most comprehensive people group profiles in the 10/40 window… The 10/40 window, denoting the latitudes on the globe considered the prime target for conversion, has India squarely in its sights.’

 

Now I don’t know about Ribeiro, but I was brought up to value the diversity of religions and cultures on the planet. As I child I would happily go to a Sikh Gurdwara and a Hindu temple with equal reverence. Christmas would be celebrated with our Christian friends, often with a visit to the local church.

 

In the world according to my simple heathen eyes, all this was wonderful. After all, everyone had their own way, and it added to the richness of the planet.

 

And why can’t we be Hindu and Christian and Buddhist all at once?

 

Since I discovered I was on a hit list about 10 years ago I have been researching evangelical Christian missions. The findings are not great. For this type of Christianity attacks something that has been core to the Indian ethos, the reason for the relative peace and acceptance between different religious communities in India. A missionary site stated the problem quite clearly:

 

‘Anyone who is familiar with India knows that India has always been a challenge to the Gospel. Hinduism that teaches, “Just as all rivers lead to the ocean, all religions lead to God”, (mistakenly, says Skanda987) dominates the thinking of the masses. (When the Vedas said all paths lead to the same destination that meant all Vedic paths or yogas or saadhanaas. It did include Christianity, islam, ec which did not exist then. – Skanda987) Many Hindus revere Jesus as another god. Yet their eyes are blinded to the uniqueness of Christ.’

 

No, Christians are not being persecuted in India. India has always been a land of acceptance of diversity. But if the evangelical activities continue unabated, there is no doubt this will cause a backlash.

 

One exclusive ideology begets another. The hit list will spread. The more strident the evangelists, the more strident the voices for Ghar Wapsi will grow.

 

This exclusive dogma is alien to all of us. Like a foreign body intrusion, it will evoke a response. It will lead to competitive madness.

 

There is a way to reel this back, but to do so we must cease the distinction between Hindu, Muslim, and Christian. Rather we should distinguish between all those that are committed to Indian pluralism and reject all those that preach exclusive dogmas.

 

This kind of money can buy a lot of media support. The facts of this evangelical war upon India has largely been kept out of mainstream discourse in India, even when they have been readily available in the public domain for years.

 

Now is the time for Indian society to truly say no to this conversion war (external link).

 

Let us challenge this hit list together, Mr. Ribeiro.
