1378 मेँ भारत से एक हिस्सा अलग हुआ, इस्लामिक राष्ट्र बना – नाम है इरान.
1761 मेँ भारत से एक हिस्सा अलग हुआ, इस्लामिक राष्ट्र बना – नाम है अफगानिस्तान.
1947 मेँ भारत से एक हिस्सा अलग हुआ, इस्लामिक राष्ट्र बना – नाम है पाकिस्तान.
1971 मेँ भारत से एक हिस्सा अलग हुआ, इस्लामिक राष्ट्र बना – नाम हैँ बांग्लादेश.
1952 से 1990 के बीच भारत का एक राज्य इस्लामिक हो गया – नाम है कशमीर…
और अब उत्तरप्रदेश, आसाम और केरला इस्लामिक राज्य बनने की कगार पर है !
और हम जब भी हिँदुओँ को जगाने की बात करते हैँ, सच्चाई बताते हैँ तो कुछ लोग हमेँ RSS, VHP और SHIV-SENA, BJP वाला कहकर पल्ला झाङ लेते हैँ !

हाल की दो महत्वपूर्ण घटनाओ को देश ने जरूर देखा होगा —
(1) उपराष्ट्रपति हमीद अंसारी ने अपने धर्म के महत्व को समझते हुए दशहरा उत्सव के दौरान आरती उतारने से मना कर दिया क्योकि इस्लाम मे ये करना “मना” है ।
(2) टी॰वी॰ सीरियल बिग बॉस की एक प्रतियोगी गौहर खान ने दुर्गा पुजा करने से मना कर दिया और वो दूर खड़ी रहकर देखती रही, जबकि ये एक कार्य था जिसे करना सभी प्रतियोगी के लिए जरूरी था लेकिन गौहर खान ने इस कार्य को करने से साफ मना कर दिया क्योकि इस्लाम मे ये करना “मना” है ।
मित्रो इन दोनों ( हमीद अंसारी व गौहर खान ) को मेरा साधुवाद क्योकि दोनों ने किसी कीमत पर भी अपने धर्म से समझौता नहीं किया, चाहे इसके लिए कितनी बड़ी कीमत भी क्यो न चुकनी पड़े ।
ये घटना उन तथाकथित “सेकुलर” हिन्दुओ के मुह पर जोरदार तमाचा है जो कहते फिरते है की कभी “टोपी” भी पहननी पड़ती है तो कभी “तिलक” भी लगाना पड़ता है…
इस घटना मे मीडिया का मौन रहना सबसे ज्यादा अचरज का विषय है क्योकि सबसे ज्यादा हाय तौबा यही मीडिया वाले मचाते रहे है जब नरेंद्र मोदी जी ने मुल्ला टोपी पहनने से इनकार कर दिया था ।
उदाहरण लेना है तो मुस्लिम समुदाय के लोगो से सीखो जो अपने धर्म के लिए बड़ी से बड़ी कीमत चुकाने को तैयार रहते है, पर अपने सिद्धांतों से कभी समझौता नहीं कर सकते ।
वही हमारे हिन्दू लोग “कायरता” का दूसरा रूप “सेकुलर” होने का झूठा दिखावा करने से बाज नहीं आते । इस को गौर से एक बार पढ़ लो…
अमल करो मत करो आप लोगो की मर्जी…
मैंने 10 लोगो को जो की हिन्दू है उनसे पुछा… किस जाती के हो…?
सभी ने अलग अलग जवाब दिया…
किसी ने कहा राजपूत
किसी ने कहा बामण
किसी ने कहा जाट
किसी ने जैन
तो किसी ने अग्रवाल…
सब अलग अलग ।
लेकीन मैने 10 मुसलमानो को पूछा की कौन सी जाती के हो ? सभी का एक जवाब आया, “मुसलमान” । मूझे अजीब लगा मैने फिर से पूछा फिर वही जवाब आया, “मुसलमान” ।
तब मुझे बड़ा अफसोस हुआ और लगा हम कीतने अलग, और वो कितने एक…
कुछ समझ मै आया हो तो आगे से कोई पूछे तो एक ही जवाब आना चाहीये
🚩॥ हिन्दू ॥🚩
और गर्व करते हो “हिन्दू” होने का तो इस मैसेज को इतना फैला दो यह मैसेज मूझे वापस किसी हिन्दू से ही मिले…!
पाकिस्तान सुप्रीम कोर्ट में एक मुस्लिम भाई ने जनहित याचिका डाली थी कि पडोसी मुल्क में हज करने के लिए सब्सिडी मिलती है तो हमें भी मिलनी चाहिए. पाकिस्तान कोर्ट ने जनहित याचिका रिजेक्ट करते हुये कहा कि कुरान और हदीसे के हिसाब से हज पसीने की कमाई से करना पड़ता है ! दूसरों की कमाई से नहीं ! सब्सिडी इस्लाम के खिलाफ है !
पाकिस्तान सुप्रीम कोर्ट के हिसाब से भारतीय मुसलमानों को मिल रही सब्सिडी हराम है क्या नेता इस पर कुछ टिप्पणी देंगे ?
अजीब कानून है भैया, गाय का चारा खाया तो जेल भेज दिया, और जो गाय को खा रहा है उसको हज के लिए भेजते हो…
ये जो नीचे लिखा है वो कोई मज़ाक नहीं है…
कल ये आपके सहर में भी हो सकता है…
अगर ये अमेरिका, जापान या फिर चाइना में हुवा होता तो इन शांति प्रिय मजहब वालों को काट कर गटर में फेंक देते…
कुछ दिन पहले NDTV के रवीश कुमार ने…
RSS के सिन्हा सर से तल्ख़ मुद्रा में पूछा था कि अगर देश में मुस्लिम ज्यादा हो जायेंगें तो कौन सा पहाड़ टूट पड़ेगा???
–
इसका एक प्रायोगिक उत्तर कल के एक वाकये ने दिया मुस्लिम बाहुल्य “काश्मीर विश्वविद्यालय” में एक फिल्म “हैदर” की शूटिंग चल रही थी उसके एक दृश्य के फिल्मांकन के लिए तिरंगा झंडा लगाया गया और कलाकारों को जय हिंद बोलना पड़ा |
इतना होना था कि विश्वविद्यालय के छात्र उस यूनिट पर टूट पड़े. फिल्म का सेट तोड़ दिया गया | काफी जद्दोजहद के बाद फिल्म के कलाकारों को बाहर निकाला जा सका |
तिरंगे से उनकी नफरत और जय हिंद पर आपत्ति इस सबका कारण थी |
पुलिस ने कुछ लोगों को गिरफ्तार किया, लेकिन कालेज प्रशासन के कहने पर छोड़ दिया गया |
ध्यान रहे, वो अनपढ़ लोग नहीं विश्वविद्यालय के छात्र थे !

The lone Christian member in the Indian Council of Historical Research (ICHR) under the Human Resources Development ministry and noted historian, C I Issac, has put up a passionate defense of the Sangh Parivar’s ghar wapsi (home coming) program and called for a ban on conversions.
A retired History professor and author of over 10 books, including Evolution of Christian Church in India, Issac is now vice-president of Kerala-based right-wing think-tank Bharateeya Vichara Kendram.
“Ghar wapsi is not religious conversion. It is a measure of opening doors for those who left earlier from poorva dharma due to historical reasons. Article 25 of the Constitution is not a provision for a one-way traffic or of a non-return valve. In no way with this Article, the founding fathers of our Constitution thought of any sort of conversion. Their intention was the healthy coexistence of all cultures and religious groups. Conversion by brainwashing, coercion, allurement, incentives, etc. is cruel in cultural terms,” said Issac.
According to him, ghar wapsi is a legitimate right of the Hindus.
This movement began not only after May 26, 2014. “Its origin in Kerala goes back to British period that is 1921. It started systematically as the shuddhi movement in the 19th century CE by Arya Samaj leader, Swami Dayananda Saraswti.”
Calling for capital punishment for indulging in conversions, he said, “The conversion is a criminal offence against humanity. The death of a religion means the total vanishing or death of a culture, civilization and knowledge system which generated by a religion through generations… We lost the Greeks, Mayans, Persians, Romans, etc. like classical societies legacies. We missed Bamian rocks of Afghanistan. Nobody can retrieve the lost knowledge. They have a substantial, objective, and observationally demonstrated information framework, obtained through generations. We, as an enlightened society, are bound to secure all societies and their commitments appropriately,” he added.
When his attention was drawn to Delhi Archbishop Anil Couto’s statement in an interview to Business Standard that he has a problem with the word ghar wapsi and not conversion, he said, “Behind this answer a fraudulent design is hidden. Ghar wapsi means return to poorva dharma. In it there is nothing as wrong. On the other hand, if it is conversion they can level charges against the Hindu society in international forms that Hindus are forcibly converting Christians to Hinduism, Hindus are fundamentalists, etc. Now they can’t raise such allegations. Above all in Hinduism there is no provision of conversion to Hinduism. Prima-facie, one may feel it is an innocent and genuine demand. But in fact it is cunning and putting Hindus in doldrums.”
Claiming him to be a practicing Christian, he said, “The Church has good relations with me. When I was nominated to ICHR, the bishop arranged a meeting to congratulate me. I believe in Christ but I don’t believe Christ as the only way.”
On Delhi church attacks, he said, “Martyrs and saints are fuels for the gigantic engines of the Church (like jihadis for Islam) without which it cannot sustain. The nature and character of the Delhi Church attack is doubtful. All the churches subjected attacks were suffered with minor damages. After the Delhi election they never pressed for the arrest of the persons behind attack or further investigations. It can be considered as a self-goal strategy.”
Although a St Thomas Christian himself, Issac disputed the claim that St Thomas landed in Kerala and converted Namboodiri Brahmins. “They are targeting higher jatis. They realized that without converting Brahmins they can’t bust the very foundation of Hinduism. In this line they deputed Robert Nobili, an Italian padre, to Madurai in 17th century CE and he studied Sanskrit and wrote Jesus Veda, [Yesu Veda] and lived in sanyasin attire in order to convert high class Hindus and miserably failed. Madras Bishop Arulappa bribed Ganesh Iyer and converted him as John Iyer and deputed him for manipulations and attempted to highjack ancient Tamil poet Thiruvalluvar.”

When (and Why) Good Muslim Neighbors Turn Bad
Raymond Ibrahim
08 July 2015
[Let believers not take for friends and allies infidels instead of believers: and whoever does this shall have no relationship left with Allah—unless you but guard yourselves against them, taking precautions. – Koran 3:28]
Days ago, after the Islamic State [IS] entered the Syrian city of Hassakè, prompting a mass exodus of Christians, a familiar but often overlooked scene took place: many otherwise “normal” Muslims joined ranks with IS, instantly turning on their longtime Christian neighbors.
This is the third category of Muslims that lurks between “moderates” and “radicals:” “sleepers,” the Muslims who appear “moderate,” but who are merely waiting for circumstances to turn to Islam’s advantage before they join the jihad; Muslims who are waiting for the rewards of jihad to become greater than the risks. There is no lack of examples of these types of Muslims.
The following are testimonials from non-Muslims, mostly Christian refugees from those regions of Iraq and Syria now under Islamic State (or other jihadi) control.
Consider what they say about their longtime Sunni neighbors who appeared “moderate”—or at least nonviolent—but who, once the jihad came to town, exposed their true colors:
Georgios, a man from the ancient Christian town of Ma’loula—one of the few areas in the world where the language of Christ was still spoken—told of how Muslim neighbors he knew all his life turned on the Christians after al-Nusra, another jihadi outfit, invaded in 2013:
“We knew our Muslim neighbors all our lives. Yes, we knew the Diab family were quite radical, but we thought they would never betray us. We ate with them. We are one people. A few of the Diab family had left months ago, and we guessed they were with the Nusra [al-Qaeda front]. But their wives and children were still here. We looked after them. Then, two days before the Nusra attacked, the families suddenly left the town. We didn’t know why. And then our neighbors led our enemies in among us.”
The Christian man explained with disbelief how he saw a young member of the Diab family, whom he knew from youth, holding a sword and leading foreign jihadis to Christian homes.
Continues Georgios:
“We had excellent relations. It never occurred to us that Muslim neighbors would betray us. We all said: “please let this town live in peace — we don’t have to kill each other.” But now there is bad blood.
They brought in the Nusra to throw out the Christians and get rid of us forever. Some of the Muslims who lived with us are good people, but I will never trust 90 per cent of them again.
A teenage Christian girl from Homs, Syria—which once had a Christian population of approximately 80,000, but which is now reportedly zero—relates her story:
“We left because they were trying to kill us. . . . They wanted to kill us because we were Christians. They were calling us Kaffirs [infidels], even little children saying these things. Those who were our neighbors turned against us. At the end, when we ran away, we went through balconies. We did not even dare go out on the street in front of our house. I’ve kept in touch with the few Christian friends left back home, but I cannot speak to my Muslim friends any more. I feel very sorry about that. (Crucified Again, p. 207)”
When asked who exactly threatened and drove Christians out of Mosul, which fell to the Islamic State a year ago, another anonymous Christian refugee responded:
“We left Mosul because ISIS came to the city. The [Sunni Muslim] people of Mosul embraced ISIS and drove the Christians out of the city. When ISIS entered Mosul, the people hailed them and drove out the Christians….”
“The people who embraced ISIS, the people who lived there with us… Yes, my neighbors. Our neighbors and other people threatened us. They said: “Leave before ISIS get you.” What does that mean? Where would we go?… Christians have no support in Iraq. Whoever claims to be protecting the Christians is a liar. A liar!”
Nor is such Muslim treachery limited to Christians.
Other “infidels,” Yazidis for example, have experienced the same betrayal.
Discussing IS invasion of his village, a 68-year-old Yazidi man who managed to flee the bloody offensive—which included the slaughter of many Yazidi men and enslavement of women and children—said:
“The (non-Iraqi) jihadists were Afghans, Bosnians, Arabs and even Americans and British fighters…. But the worst killings came from the people living among us, our (Sunni) Muslim neighbors…. The Metwet, Khawata and Kejala tribes—they were all our neighbors. But they joined the IS, took heavy weapons from them, and informed on who was Yazidi and who was not. Our neighbors made the IS takeover possible.”
Likewise, watch this 60 Minutes interview with a Yazidi woman.
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox/14e7bae2e0ce50fb?projector=1
When asked why people she knew her whole life would suddenly join IS and savagely turn on her people, she replied:
“I can’t tell you exactly, but it has to be religion. It has to be religion. They constantly asked us to convert, but we refused. Before this, they never mentioned it. Prior, we thought of each other as family. But I say, it has to be religion.”
Lest it seem that this phenomenon of Sunni betrayal is limited to Islamic jihad in Mesopotamia, know that it has occurred historically and currently in other nations. (It has happened many many times in India in last 1000 years. – Skanda987)
The following anecdote from the Ottoman Empire is over 100 years old:
“Then one night, my husband came home and told me that the padisha [sultan] had sent word that we were to kill all the Christians in our village, and that we would have to kill our neighbors. I was very angry, and told him that I did not care who gave such orders, they were wrong. These neighbors had always been kind to us, and if he dared to kill them Allah would pay us out. I tried all I could to stop him, but he killed them — killed them with his own hand. (Sir Edwin Pears, Turkey and Its People, London: Methuen and Co., 1911, p. 39)
And in Nigeria—a nation that shares little with Syria, Iraq, or Turkey, other than Islam—a jihadi attack on Christians that left five churches destroyed and several Christians killed was enabled by “local Muslims”:
“The Muslims in this town were going round town pointing out church buildings and shops owned by Christians to members of Boko Haram, and they in turn bombed these churches and shops.”
Such similar patterns of traitorous behavior—patterns that cross continents and centuries, patterns that regularly appear whenever Muslims live alongside non-Muslims—are easily understood by turning to Koran 3:28: Let believers [Muslims] not take infidels [non-Muslims] for friends and allies instead of believers. Whoever does this shall have no relationship left with God—unless you but guard yourselves against them, taking precautions. But Allah cautions you [to fear] Himself. For the final goal is to Allah.
Here is how Islam’s most authoritative ulema and exegetes explain Koran 3:28.
Muhammad ibn Jarir at-Tabari (d. 923), author of a standard and authoritative commentary of the Koran, writes:
If you [Muslims] are under their [non-Muslims’] authority, fearing for yourselves, behave loyally to them with your tongue while harboring inner animosity for them … [know that] Allah has forbidden believers from being friendly or on intimate terms with the infidels rather than other believers—except when infidels are above them [in authority]. Should that be the case, let them act friendly towards them while preserving their religion.
Ibn Kathir (d. 1373), another prime authority on the Koran, writes:
The Most High said, “[U]nless you but guard yourselves against them, taking precautions”—that is, whoever at any time or place fears their evil may protect himself through outward show—not sincere conviction. As al-Bukhari records through Abu al-Darda the words [of the Prophet], “Truly, we grin to the faces of some peoples, while our hearts curse them.”
In other words, Muslims are not to befriend non-Muslims, unless circumstances are such that it is in the Muslims’ interests to do so.
For example, if Muslims are a minority (as in America), or if their leaders brutally crack down on jihadi activities (as in Bashar Assad’s pre-Islamic State Syria): then they may preach and even feign peace, tolerance, and coexistence with their non-Muslim neighbors.
However, if and when circumstances to make Islam supreme appear, Muslims are expected to join the jihad—”for the final goal is to Allah.”[1]

Hindus and Sikhs
India’s religious spectrum of strife
Part 1.
People of India now fall into two parts. Those born before 1947 (and can recall the last days of British Raj and the social/communal scene then) and those born after that year whose education and brainwashing was done successfully by (Nehru) Dynasty and (Corrupt) Congress. Your view of Hindu-Sikh bond will be influenced by on which side of this ‘time divide’ you belong to.
That year was a watershed with regard to internal communal / social situation. Through historical misfortunes we (our ancestors) found ourselves under the British rule that put into practice the policy of “DIVIDE & RULE”. The British took this doctrine to the extreme, to suit their purposes.
Hindus and Sikhs were ONE family on the day the British handed over Broken Bharat (Partitioned India) on platter to Jawaharlal Nehru who was the “apple of eye” of Lady Edwina Mountbatten and a useful imperialist stooge in the eyes of the Viceroy. More worthy candidates like Sardar Patel were ignored while the true son of soil, Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, had been eliminated by self-seeking over ambitious Jawaharlal Nehru earlier.
The two indigenous communities had bond of blood with each other. Sikhs were one of the streams from the Hindu mainstream. The purpose of being separate from the non-violent self-negating subservient slavish Hindu nation proved very beneficial at that time.
When the Muslim invaders & marauders used to return with donkey-, and cartloads of gold and silver looted from the big temples, and thousands of crying captured girls and young women were forced to walk or ride for hundreds of miles along with the savage brutes, the intrepid Sikh warriors used to pursue them and carry out daring raids on these Mogul columns in order to rescue the girls. They assured them of safety, addressing them as “sisters” (behan ji) and “mothers” (maata ji), and took them back to their grateful parents who were grieving over the fate of their daughters and had lost all hope of ever seeing them again.
Life in North West (Delhi to Khyber) was not the same as in Karnataka or Kerala where the natives were relatively safe from the marauders. In Northern India life of Hindu subjects of the Islamic rulers was always on knife’s edge. Paying the back breaking compulsory tax of Jezia only saved them from their Muslim neighbors and rulers, but not from the foreign invaders who wrought havoc and forced millions to flee in all directions as gypsies!
Under gracious Divine Will a new stream originated in the Hindu nation in order to save our “way of life”. They were the Sikhs of Guru Nanak to Guru Tegh Bahadur, and finally, the fearless “Khalsa” of Guru Gobind Singhji who undertook the most dangerous task of defending “dharti” and “dharma” of Hindusthan.
They were members of Hindu family and, in fact, a tradition grew up whereby Hindu families offered at least one son to embrace the Sikh faith which made it mandatory for the males to possess and carry swords. While the Hindus felt safe, the Sikhs became the target of the fanatic Muslim rulers. As a result the Sikh history became story of martyrs and blood drenched soil of Punjab.
The Sikh Code of Conduct was radically different from that of the Muslims. Girls were regarded “devis” and older women “mothers”. This kind of belief system is unknown in Islam and Christianity even today.
Post Partition India suddenly came under different social pressures due to anti Hindu Nehru and his Muslim allies like Maulana Azad.
What the Muslims had done in previous centuries was regarded irrelevant bygone dark times, and, we thought, that had nothing to do with the modern age of liberty, science, computers and human rights. Therefore, what the followers of Mohammed are doing right now beggars belief!
Boko Haramis are busy In Nigeria capturing, raping and selling girls boasting of being “good” Muslims. The other “good” Muslims are the ISIL, dealing with the Christians, Jews and Yazidis in the manner of their forefathers, all the way back to Mohammed- carrying out widespread rape and sale of women, destruction of churches and the ancient cultural & historical ruins and relics of mankind.
The Hindu Sikh harmony was clearly demonstrated when we became the COMMON target of Muslims at Partition.
We were treated alike during the savage ethnic cleansing of Hindus and Sikhs. Nehru was openly pro Islam and a Hindu hater. We saw it when he neither opposed Jinnah’s demand for Pakistan nor threatened to charge him of HIGH TREASON and see him hanged to death.
What happened after Partition?
Nehru went to Moscow to meet Stalin, his ideological mentor and teacher. Those were the days of “Hindi-Roosi, Bhai Bhai!”
“Comrade Stalin, I rule a large country where most people are devout Hindus who love their religion. There are many languages, cultures and races just as in your Soviet Union. I am afraid that if I grant them freedom and free media they will soon discover my collaboration with Brother Jinnah to partition India and then assassinate me! I seek your advice.”
Stalin, to whom Nehru was merely an Indian “coolie”, did not hesitate to oblige.
“Mr. Nehru, DIVIDE & RULE. Separate Hindus from the Sikhs and Brahmins from the Dalits. Keep media under your foot. Never put a devout Hindu in charge of two ministries- of Education, and Information & Broadcasting.”
“Thank you Comrade Stalin. I shall follow your advice to the letter!”
As a result of that strategic understanding between the two dictators, India not only relapsed to the old colonial ways of “divide and rule” and suppression of freedom of expression, but also lost two invaluable sons on the territory of Soviet Union. One was Netaji Bose and the other was Lal Bahadur Shastri.
Nehru, blind to partition, declared the Muslims an “indigenous” Indian community that was as loyal to Bharat as the Hindus. At the same time he recalled that a Sikh leader, Master Tara Singh, had torn up the Paki flag in Lahore on March 3, 1947, and declared the Sikhs potential “terrorists” who needed to be watched!
Indeed, for all the Hindu leaders Nehru’s treason and smartness were both fathomless. Our leaders have yet to comprehend Nehru’s Imperial game and dispatch Sonia to Italy.
Part 2.
Congress, the Party of Partition, had to show some justification for Pakistan. So what did they do? They had to show that it was not only the Muslims who went their separate ways but there were others, too, who wanted separation from Bharat. They identified the gullible simple Sikhs who would readily fall into the trap and demand Khalistan!
Thus began the movement for Khalistan, encouraged by Dynasty and Congress. Hindus, too, being gullible, trusting and simple, did not crush the head of this Nehruvian snake but, totally exonerating the Muslims for capturing one third of India to establish Pakistan, charged the Sikhs of “breaking the unity” of India! Only one Sikh young man, wounded by the bullet of Inspector General Julio Ribeiro in EAST Punjab, shouted back, “How can you break a damn thing that is already broken?” He was shot dead by another bullet. The question has yet to be answered.
Congress and Dynasty had, together, successfully shifted the attention from Muslim High Treason to the Sikhs who were then targeted continuously and relentlessly, culminating in their genocide in Delhi in October/November 1984.
Now with the advent of the patriotic NATIVE Hindu rule since May 16, 2014, one expects Narendra Modi Sarkar to look at the question, “Why was Pakistan CONCEDED and the seed of Sikh separatism sown?”
Our BJP rulers must also hold an investigation into the reasons for conceding Islamic Pakistan so readily without referendum or condition as if India was a lifeless worthless desert or swamp!
The other question is, “Why have the criminals, who instigated large scale Sikh massacres in Delhi in 1984, not yet been brought to trial?”
Yet another question is, “Why is there NO memorial yet to the two million Dead of Partition– all betrayed by Nehru and his despicable coterie?”
In the meantime both Hindus and Sikhs and anyone else whose spirituality, religion and faith sprang from the blessed soil of Hindusthan, are ONE family who are AT PEACE with one another.
We should also thwart the aims and intentions of the “scheming” foreigners, eliminate “divide & rule” politics, and UNITE the nation in order to make Hindusthan a strong and powerful country on earth under a NEW Constitution- yet to be written.

Dear Narendra Modi ji,
We are facing a situation in Hindustan where thousands of girls are being simply picked up and thrown into sexual slavery across West Bengal, Hyderabad and many other areas in Muslim dominated areas.
The tragic case of Tutukti is a case in point, that is the fate of so many girls estimated at 100 girls per day across 32,000 villages of West Bengal, and just recently 10 girls were kidnapped from Hyderabad and sold into sexual slavery.
The world has become increasingly aware and taking actions to contain Islam. We cannot continue our country with business as usual when there are serious demographic changes occurring with little population control among Muslims who are increasingly radicalized in Madrassas, Mosques and Islamic universities and posing a dangerous threat to non-Muslim civilizations.
What is Hindustan’s plan to contain the Islam, when all over the world actions are being taken including Islamic own countries?
Is there a plan to stop Saudi funding, to stop Madrassa education, to close down the Mosques preaching violence?
And (when we will begin) speaking against population control, which even Egypt is doing? (When Hindustan will bring in laws to tackle vote bank politics that is causing daily riots and kidnapping girls and throwing them into sexual slavery?
When Hindustan will enact uniform civil code, teach true history of partition and Islamic threat, and to close down the media houses which are blatantly partisan and creating a dangerous situation of partition of Hindustan?
What are we afraid of when so many countries are boldly moving forward to bring in changes? If Egypt can close down 27,000 Mosques for radical teachings, can we not learn something from it?
This is about survival of Hindustan as a nation and another possible brutal partition of it. We cannot commit civilization suicide with half gap measures and fearing the opinion of biased Hindustan media. No amount of development will save us from this if we do not address these issues today. If we need to change constitution (and yes, we need to), or create conditions to change via Emergency we have to move forward.

Fast Spreading Wahhabi Tentacles in India
By Dr. Kashi Nath Pandita
The count of fatalities in recent attacks carried out by ISIS crusaders in France, Tunisia and Kuwait has risen to over sixty. In the tiny state of Kuwait it was the first bomb explosion inside a Shia mosque. Earlier a Shia mosque in Saudi Arabia was also targeted.
Contrary to the established Islamic tradition of observing Ramadhan as the month of peace and virtuous deeds, an ISIS spokesman gave a call to the mujahedeen to strike at identified targets and create mayhem. Simultaneously, two youths were beheaded for alleged non-observance of fasting.
Sectarian strife in the Muslim world has a long history. It assumed wider political dimensions after Imam Khomeini’s Islamic Revolution of Iran. Imam’s ideology of export of Islamic revolution and his conviction of monarchy as anti-Islamic led to subtle but sustained reaction of the Saudi, the bastion of Sunni orthodoxy. Wahhabi Sunni radicalism in contemporary times owes its rising crescendo to this phenomenon.
Sectarian and ideological strife resulted in the creation of proxies on both sides. Bahrain, Syria, Yemen, Afghanistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Eastern Turkistan, and Pakistan are drawn into the vortex of conflicts and controversies.
U.S. sanctions are stimulated less by Iranian anti-Israel animus than by Iran-Saudi rivalry for the leadership of the ummah. That explains the on-going US policeman-ship over Iran’s nuclear ambition. No wonder the US did not beat an eyelid when the Saudi-Pakistani joint secret nuclear and missile venture fructified.
Determined to counter Islamic Iran’s growing influence in the Middle East and other vulnerable regions, Saudi Arabia invoked the doctrines of Abdul Wahhab, as the standing manual for Sunni armed interventions everywhere.
Saudi intelligence has done excellent homework in identifying countries, regions, segments, and enclaves where Wahhabi ideology would find fertile ground to flourish. This identification is based on existing remnants of proto-Iranian traces, at least in the Asian continent.
India, with second largest Muslim population in the world, is not beyond the pale of Wahhabi reach. However, in Saudi estimation, for definite reasons, the construct of Indian polity appears rather hard-crested to direct Wahhabi penetration.
India has a unique position in Iran-Arab calculus. From a Saudi perception, India is (i) essentially of Aryan ethnic stock; (ii) most of the 18 crore Muslims of India, the world’s second largest Muslim populated country, are Shias, and (iii) India is the world’s largest democracy where freedom of expression is guaranteed by the constitution.
Rapidly growing Indo-Iran ties in economic, technological, and cultural and security related areas are adding to the alarmist psyche of Saudi monarchy, which perceives this as a challenge to its strategic outreach.
Hence, India has come under Saudi/Wahhabi radar. The Wahhabi/Salafi agenda for India is selective. The more India and Iran come closer in their bilateral relations, the more penetrative India-oriented Wahhabism will become. Apart from Kashmir, three southern states, Andhra, Karnataka and Kerala are prioritized. However, strategies and methodologies will vary depending on the receptivity of the soft targets where it is floated.
The Kashmir experiment, begun two decades ago, has been promisingly successful. The region is brought under a two-pronged assault: Armed jihad is floated through external proxy, while internal subversion is undertaken by local agency. Jama’at Islami and Ahle Hadith, in concert with rabid clerics imported from Yadavlands, have engaged the majority Sunni Hanafi population of Kashmir valley for wholesale social cultural and psychological transformation. To pro-Wahhabi ideologues in Kashmir, cliché-like communal harmony and peaceful co-existence among communities is not only redundant but outright nonsense. Recent uproar against rehabilitation of Kashmir IDPs reflects to what extent Wahhabi ideological penetration has succeeded. Recurrent waving of ISIS and Pakistani flags in some parts of the valley, and administration’s unwillingness to react supports our contention.
Wahhabi ideological penetration in Southern India is methodic. The case of violence in a mosque in Bommanhalli, Bengaluru last year, was hushed up as a minor tiff. Actually, the Wahhabis were trying to impose Wahhabi teachers in the mosque which the clerics rejected. Four persons were injured in the clashes. In another case in Maharashtra, Wahhabis tried to bribe the organizers to allow the preaching of Wahhabi ideology.
Saudi Arabia sponsored Wahhabism is highest in Kerala. The Muslim World League requested Saudi Arabia to establish Wahhabi centers in India to counter the growing influence of Iran among the Indian Shia.
However, Saudi has not missed that the Sunnis in India have not followed the violent Wahhabi style of Islam and there are many seniors in the Muslim community who would not subscribe to that line of thinking.
In the background of this reality, the only way Saudi Arabia could instill a radical thinking in the minds of the Sunni Muslims in India is of establishing pro-active Wahhabi centers in congenial locations. As we know Wahhabis are extremely orthodox in their beliefs.
It is not true that Wahhabism has no takers among the Indian Muslims. According to reliable press sources, it is reported that as a first step of its Wahhabization methodology for India, (in direct contrast to ghazavatu’l-hind dogma) Saudi sent Wahhabi preachers to India. During three years beginning 2011, a record number of 25,000 Wahhabis came to India where they conducted seminars in various parts of the country.
Their kitty carried 1700 crore rupees in several installments. The money was meant for propagating Wahhabi Islamic ideology in India.
Though the Saudi drive for imposition of Wahhabi ideology on Indian Sunni-Hanafis did not enjoy overall success, Kerala, apart from the Kashmir Valley, showed large scale receptivity. So far the State of Kerala has recorded the highest rate of success of Wahhabi ideology in Indian lands.
A large number of Keralite Muslims go to Saudi Arabia in search of employment. Many in Keralites have welcomed the Wahhabi style of preaching. The Saudi controlled ecclesiastical structure in the State has taken control over nearly 75 mosques. The newly up-coming mosques in Kerala are also constructed on Saudi pattern.
Kerala has the highest inflow of Saudi money. It was in Kerala that posters mourning the death of Osama Bin Laden and prayer for executed Ajmal Kasab appeared in public places.
The Wahhabi rule book, which every Saudi Wahhabi preacher must carry with him when headed towards India, is a set of guidelines to be adhered to. Some of these guidelines are: shrines shall be forbidden; every Muslim woman should wear a veil; men should support beards; women should not work; men and women should not to mingle together in public; no weeping should be heard loudly at funerals; one should abide by the sharia law; men should wear trousers above the ankles; and there should be no laughing, music, dancing or watching television.
Wahhabi universities are also being set up: the Saudi sponsored Wahhabis are aiming to set up their own education system in India as well. Nearly half of the 1700 crore rupees for Wahhabization program in India will go to establishing four universities, including one in Andhra, as dissemination centers of Wahhabi ideology. 400 crore rupees are earmarked for setting up 40 mosques and 300 crore for seminaries where Wahhabi ideology will be preached. Bribing the authorities of existing mosques is part of these allocations.
Jamiat Ahl-e-Hadith has a long history in Kashmir. Now it has been refurbished with funds, ideology, and cadres to carry out the Wahhabi agenda with recharged energy. After spreading its tentacles deep and wide in Kashmir, the Jamiat expanded to Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh. Now Kerala is poised to become the hub of Jamiat-e-Ahle-e-Hadith that oversea the flow of Wahhabi scholars into India and its over reach in Southern India.
As good luck would have it, Indian Muslims have a very valuable friend in Home Minister Rajnath Singh, who affirms and confirms that they are away from the reach of Wahhabi and ISIS ideology. What an enviable art of subtle denial!

Why does Islamic State’s enslavement of women seem to appeal to potential recruits, and why is it not challenged more vigorously by mainstream Muslims?
Jamie Walker, Middle East correspondent for The Australian, asked two critical questions in a recent article that discussed the involvement of two Australian citizens, Mohamed Elomar and Khaled Sharrouf, in Islamic State sex slavery.
In 2014 Elomar purchased sex slaves, of whom four, all Yazidis, later escaped to a refugee camp, where the ABC caught up with them and interviewed them.
Elomar had also boasted on Twitter that he had “1 of 7 Yezidi slave girls for sale” at $2500 each.
Walker’s questions were “why this debased appeal seems to be gaining traction with Islamic State’s target audience, which increasingly includes women, and why it’s not challenged more stridently in the public arena.”
The Islamic State has given its own answer to the first question.
In the fourth edition of its magazine Dabiq, it aggressively promoted sex slavery as an Islamic practice, arguing that the practice conforms to the teaching and example of Muhammad and his companions.
Does this argument have any wider appeal than among Islamic State recruits?
The reality is that many Muslim scholars have upheld the practice of enslaving captives of war.
For example Islamic revivalist Abul A’la Maududi wrote in his influential and widely disseminated tract Human Rights in Islam that for Muslims to enslave their captives was “a more humane and proper way of disposing of them” than Western approaches.
Enslavement by Muslims, he argued, is preferable to the provisions of the Geneva Convention because of the value of this policy for fueling the growth of Islam:
The result of this humane policy was that most of the men who were captured on foreign battlefields and brought to the Muslim countries as slaves embraced Islam and their descendants produced great scholars, imams, jurists, commentators, statesmen and generals of the army.
Islamic revivalist movements that look forward to the restoration of an Islamic Caliphate have repeatedly endorsed the practice of slavery in the name of their religious convictions.
For example the (now banned) Muhajiroun movement in the UK announced in an article, “How does Islam Classify Lands?” that once a true Islamic State is established, no-one living in other nations (which it calls Dar al Harb, ‘house of war’) will have a right to their life or their wealth:
[H]ence a Muslim in such circumstances can then go into Dar Al Harb and take the wealth from the people unless there is a treaty with that state. If there is no treaty individual Muslims can even go to Dar Al Harb and take women to keep as slaves.
It is a problem that the Qur’an itself endorses having sex with captive women (Sura 4:24).
According to a secure tradition (hadith)attributed to one of Muhammad’s companions, Abu Sa’id al-Khudri, this verse of the Qur’an was revealed to Muhammad at a time when Muslims had been ‘refraining’ from having sex with their married female captives. Verse 4:24 relieved them of this restraint by giving them permission to have sex with captive women, even if the women were already married.
Abd-al-Hamid Siddiqui, a Fellow of the Islamic Research Academy of Karachi and the translator into English of the Sahih Muslim, commented on this tradition, saying:
When women are taken captive their previous marriages are automatically annulled. It should, however, be remembered that sexual intercourse with these women is lawful with certain conditions.
There have been many cases reported across the centuries of Islamic armies using captive women for sex slavery, but is this any different from all wars?
It is different in one important respect — that the mainstream of Islamic jurisprudence has justified and supported this practice on the basis of Islam’s canonical sources, including Muhammad’s own example and teaching. Islamic sex slavery is religiously sanctioned ‘guilt-free sex’.
This religious teaching is impacting our world today because the global Islamic community has been deeply affected by a grassroots religious revival, which seeks to purify Islam and restore it to its foundational principles, which include rules for war and the treatment of captives.
This leads us to Walker’s second question: why is the Islamic State’s ‘debased appeal’ not ‘challenged more stridently in the public arena’?
An obstacle that stands in the way of such a challenge is that it would require a sober evaluation of the Islamic character of sex slavery.
However, even suggesting a link between Islam and ‘terrorism’ has become taboo to those who are afraid of being judged intolerant.
Not only do some impose this taboo upon themselves, but they are quick to stigmatize those who do not partner with them in this ill-considered ‘tolerance’.
The taboo attached to making any link between Islamic State atrocities and the religion of Islam was apparent in comments by Greg Bearup on his interview with South Australian politician Cory Bernardi.
During the course of the interview Senator Bernardi linked the Islamic State with Muhammad’s example, to which the interviewer wrote “Kaboom!”, and called the comment a ‘hand grenade’, ‘inflammatory’ and ‘divisive’.
While it is a hopeful sign that some Muslims, such as Anooshe Mushtaq, have been willing to explore the Islamic character of the Islamic State, non-Muslim opinion-makers should show more backbone by engaging with the issue at hand.
It is not a sign of tolerance when free people deliberately silence themselves about the ideological drivers of sex trafficking.
The same can also be said of acts of terrorism, such as the world has witnessed over the past week in France, Tunisia and Kuwait.
Until societies are able and willing to have a frank and free discussion of the ideological drivers which motivate acts of terror and abuse, they should not expect to be able to develop effective strategies to contain or wind back such atrocities.
A state of denial is a state of defeat.

Can we separate ISIS from Islam? Politically correct DE hyphenation won’t work
01 July 2015
The world is in denial about the reality of Islamic terrorism by trying to dehypenate the two – the Islamic part from the terrorism.
At a time when the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS), or simply Islamic State, uses holy texts to behead women for “sorcery”, kill Muslims for not fasting during Ramzan, or launch terrorist attacks against “infidels” in several countries simultaneously (France, Tunisia and Kuwait were targets last week), it is disingenuous to pretend that this violence is unrelated to the faith.
Commonsense tells us that when an act is committed in the name of a religion – and additionally justified by quotes from scripture – it has to be called by the right name.
But this is what everybody is in denial about.

TREACHERY OF CHRISTIANITY
“The spiritual equipage of Islam and Christianity is similar, their spiritual contents, both in quality and quantum, are about the same. The central piece of the two creeds is ‘ONE TRUE GOD’, of masculine gender who makes himself known to his believers through an equally single favored individual. – – The whole prophetic spirituality, whether found in the Bible or the Koran, is mediumistic in essence. Here everything takes place through a proxy, through an intermediary.
Here man knows God through a proxy; and probably God too knows man through the same proxy. The proxy is the favored individual, a privileged mediator. – – . There are other similarities of the same fundamental kind into which we need not go here.
But none of them are calculated to promote peace.
The seeds of conflict, not only amongst the ‘believers’ but also with the rest of the world, lie at the very heart of these two ideologies. Each of the two is presided over by a ‘bellicose God’, each chief of his own hosts; each claims sole sovereignty.
A larger charity and mutual respect and even tolerance, and co-existence cannot be strong points of such theologies”

A convoluted path to salvation
Priyadarshi Dutta

[Christian missionaries in India have been quiet on the White supremacist attack on a Black church in the US, because it disrupts their narrative of Christianity as a superior faith that can provide succor to marginalized Hindus]
Christian activists in India had breathed fire and brimstone over some obscure attacks on the churches in New Delhi not long ago.
Not a single person was scathed in those attacks. No hate graffiti, banner or literature was recovered from the spots.
Yet, those isolated incidents were quickly attributed to the BJP’s ascension to power.
On one occasion, the Delhi Police Headquarters was gheraoed, and on another, roads in the heart of the city were blocked.
Christian activists met the Union Home Minister and suggested amendments in the Indian Penal Code/Code of Criminal Procedure for as ‘hate crimes’.
But those activists preferred to look the other way when a racist massacre at a US church outraged the conscience of the world.
The reason was not because the US is another country, half-a-world away from India, but engaging with the Charleston shootout could undermine the new race theory that the Christian activists/missionaries are surreptitiously cultivating in India.
Few realize the disaster potential of this new race theory using Indian mythological figures/motifs.
On June 17, a lethal mass shooting inside Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in downtown Charleston, South Carolina claimed nine lives.
The victims were all Blacks, including a State Senator.
The crime was racist not simply because Dylann Storm Roof, the 21-year old assailant, was a White man.
It was categorically racist because Roof had revived the controversial flag used by the Confederate States during the American Civil War.
In 1861, the States of South Carolina, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana and Texas that had broken away from the US.
These States were bastions of Black slavery; and seceded in defiance of Abraham Lincoln’s intention to abolish that evil.
The secession proved transitory, as the Confederates were worsted by the Unionists in a four-year long bitter war.
But the defeat of the Confederates in 1865 did not imply cessation of racism in the southern States.
Lincoln himself was shot dead by a White supremacist.
The racist secret society, Ku Klux Klan, set up in Tennessee by Confederate war veterans in 1866, spread a reign of terror.
In defiance of the 13th (1865), 14th (1868) and 15th (1870) Amendments of the US Constitution that abolished slavery, emancipated the Blacks and enfranchised them respectively, the southern States began a 100-year long regime of racial segregation.
This came to a close only in 1964, when the Civil Rights Act was promulgated.
An interesting feature of the Civil Rights Movement was that it was born in the lap of Black community churches.
Reverend George Lee, the first martyr of the movement, ran four churches in addition to his grocery shop.
He was among the first who tried to register for vote Mississippi but Sheriff Ike Skelton rejected it.
The father and grandfather of Martin Luther King Jr were pastors in Atlanta, Georgia. King himself became the Minister at Dexter Avenue Baptist Church, Montgomery, Alabama.
No wonder, Black churches had been targeted by White supremacists.
What explains this silence in the Charleston massacre case, passed off as a non-event for Indian Christian activists?
Not that they were silent altogether during the period.
They let their unease about the International Day of Yoga be known on Facebook pages.
Mr. John Dayal [the QUISLING] informed that he would be holidaying away from the hustle and bustle of Delhi.
He did not forget to add that there would be no television to interrupt his retreat with ‘wall-to-wall publicity of Yoga Day’.
Allahabad-based Vishal Mangalwadi advised Christians to stay away from Yoga.
They chose silence on Charleston massacre because it punctured the holy myth that Christianity is liberating.
It will expose that Christianity has failed to bridge the racial divide.
Thus Christianity is unlikely to be a model for the SCs/STs and OBCs in India.
There has been noticeable shift in the approach of Christian activists/missionaries towards India.
It is no longer the straight path of converting people.
They want to stir up conflict within the Hindu fold.
This is being done by co-opting figures, expression of speech, ideas from within the Indic tradition.
For a change, Jesus Christ is no longer being projected as the model and the goal.
Rather Mahishasur, Bali Raja and Jyotirba Phuleare being projected as heroes for some segments of Hindu community.
For the last few years, a Mahishasura Martyrdom Day is being observed in Jawarharlal Nehru University.
The media describes it as expression of protest against Brahmanic narrative.
But few know that its intellectual arsenal comes from a bilingual magazine Forward Press.
It published a special issue of Mahishasura last year where it gave a derogatory description of goddess Durga.
Interestingly, Forward Press is owned by a Spanish man, Ivan Anthony Kostka. He and his wife are directors of Aspire Prakashan Private Limited.
Why are two Spaniards, who are not academics, publishing a magazine on Dalit issues?
Similarly missionary Sunil Sardar, married to a White American lady Pam Sardar, and working in Maharashtra tried to con people by projecting Jesus as Baliraja.
His deen bandhu (friend of the poor) Ministry, launched in 1990s in Yavatmal, described baptism by water as Ganga-Snan to beguile the tribesmen.
