In relation to the incrementally violent and genocidal path toward an inevitable hell that's been forced on Palestinians, I fail to see how anyone can still deny any of that and not acknowledge what's now been inarguably confirmed through the devastating turn of events in Israel and Gaza starting 7-Oct-2023, albeit the undeniable fact that reality, tensions, and the fighting started long before that, rendering the situation all the more infuriating, as the alarm bells have been sounding loudly for years, the genocide of Palestinians having been long announced.

I've mentioned in recent posts that a marked parallel between Israel's Zionists and India's Hindutva adherents had made itself abundantly clear. I'll now take it a step further and claim: Modi and the BJP have been paying careful attention to developments in Israel and to the world's reaction to key events and statements, learning whatever valuable lessons can be applied to the Hamases called Muslims, Sikhs, and Christians back in India.

What China was being accused of doing—watching events unfurl in Ukraine and paying close attention to then apply the lessons to Taiwan—is actually applicable to India and, in this case, accurate.

And through it all, wanting to eat the cake and still have it, PM Narendra Modi has been offering grand humanitarian claims but applauding savagery in the name of "anti-terrorism", a classification that's becoming increasingly absurd as more become aware of the real state of affairs that have plagued the Middle East.

As such, Modi has only managed to convince many that he's taken a clear position; because it's one that's quickly taken a nose dive into inexcusable, fascist irrationality, we see a dancing Modi, for a firm stand with Israel is what helps his plans for an Hindu state, but it's also what's making his oppressive, savage intent more visible. So, the Modi-devoted media remind us that PM Modi did condemn terrorists (Hamas), as nothing they do is forgivable, but he did express strong concern for Palestinians, sent humanitarian aid, and said that Netanyahu should bomb more softly—he rejected a cease fire; they don't mention that—but terrorists must be destroyed, and times are changing, India has developed a strong relationship with Israel, and it's a relationship that's grown and become very beneficial... for both. And there's no reason to harm that relationship for terrorists.

Hey, if a genocide isn't enough to break up a friendship, that's a true friend. I think I saw an After-School Special about that once. A real tearjerker when the mass-murderer realised his good buddy wagged a finger but didn't dare abandon him in his difficult time; a slaughter is always harder on the slaughterer than the slaughtered. Something like that.

Following his conversation with Netanyahu, Modi had posted: “People of India stand in solidarity with Israel in this difficult hour… India strongly and unequivocally condemns terrorism in all its forms and manifestations”.

After his call to Palestinian President Abbas and the backlash received following his first official statement on the conflict, New Delhi sought to balance its position, so MEA spokesperson Bagchi clarified with: “We have strongly condemned the horrific terrorist attack on Israel, and we believe the international community must stand together in combating terrorism in all its forms and manifestations.” 

Guess they don't have a good handle on "balance" just yet. Hilarious. And not. At the other end, people are suffering. Modi's handling also demonstrates how warped and dysfunctional New Delhi's interpretation and identification of, and relationship with, terrorists has become.

And what little was offered to Palestinians, that smells like "appeasement". I'm surprised that no Hindu complained about that... could it be that it only matters if Muslims or other minorities are at the receiving end? Oh, wait! Palestinians are primarily Muslims. Must be 'guilt', then; not wanting to look too heartless?

That BRICS held an emergency meeting is new, signaling the solidification of a new path; that India's PM Modi "skipped the meeting" confirms my belief that Modi joined the BRICS for what has become all the wrong reasons. The media brushed it off as a pointless meeting, and anyway, the joint statement made by BRCS didn't condemn Hamas. Terrorists. Not condemned! And, anyhow, Modi already expressed strong concern for Palestinians...

India, under Modi, and the mindset promoted by the MMM, is a wannabe; it has not the maturity, nor gained true independence in any manner that would establish it as a global leader.

.

NOTE: For ease and clarity, I'm introducing "MMM" to refer to Modi's Media Machine, which identifies the entire Hindutva-based public-facing apparatus and dissemination framework and outlets that serve the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS).

But First, Just a Reminder

I've said it, quoted someone else who've said it, then re-said it myself, so, it's only fair I let Somdeep Sen re-say it as well, from a different op-ed:

Al Jazeera - Diaspora paying price for Hindutva

India has global ambitions. This was very much evident in the pomp and circumstance with which it hosted the recent G20 summit. But irrespective of whether India was indeed responsible for Nijjar’s assassination, its response to the allegations does not exactly paint the country as one that is ready for global leadership.

Instead, it punishes the diaspora and makes the toxicity of the Hindutva brand of politics harder to ignore for the international community as divisiveness with roots in India explodes globally.

India wants to take on Trudeau. It’s taking down its own diaspora | Opinions | Al Jazeera

And the funny thing is that, unlike absolutely everything else that's coming out on India, Sen, like me, identified the Indians as being the ones who are, ultimately, responsible for those problems that belong to India. If stating as much seems to you akin to offering a tautology in the vein of "apples will be apples", then, you're probably unaware, but Indians—those belonging to the segment that's discussed, not necessarily all Indians—generally have two modes: self-praise and animosity, the latter usually expressed as a blame campaign or an attack.

I offer: If the nationalist Hindus want people to stay out of their business? Then, they ought to keep people out of their blame.

That whole "playground for terrorist" and "Canada promotes terrorist activity" and "facilitates attacks on India"... you Hindutva pushing news people surely suffer from some sort of mental deficiency. I'd actually have a better opinion of you if so, otherwise, hate to say it, but being me, I will: Your cult is turning you into truly disgusting, insufferable, arrogant, and supremely bigoted, barely-thinking individuals. Major A-holes. The kind that only other major A-holes could possibly tolerate for more than a few hours.

And guess what: Treating people like crap is first and foremost what's behind the very mild acts of civil disobedience that New Delhi and the idiots pretending to do news paint as acts of "terrorism", its culprits dangerous terrorists the world needs to play an active role in taking down! This also true if beating people with sticks for expressing a desire or through a constant abuse of one's power by arresting anyone under the revised Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act and letting them sit in a jail—without due process—for however long seems good to an oppressive system and its agents, which have among the worst records for abuses, torture, and rapes, leading to a troubling number of people dying while in custody.

And with significant numbers being arrested for anything that may be perceived as being potentially "unlawful", thus, in need of "prevention", and with the average 'stay' being close to a year but often goes into the two or three years, though one group of teens spent  close to 19 years without a trial before being, simply, released.

You've become sick, twisted authoritarian fascists. Try dealing with it by not shitting on other nations, maybe? Or would that be too much on the side of the expected thing to do? 

And keep in mind that if boneheaded boneheadedness aimed at Canada wasn't what the MMM had served up as the most juvenile reaction to all this that they could think up, I wouldn't have covered, nor opined, on the topic to such a length.

If it's any consolation, though, I don't think I'll be able to be a pest for much longer, as I'll probably be forced to lose domains and site in a few weeks. Not sure what I'll do but I'm currently not in a good place. Having a crappy week, hit with surprises and bad news and a whack of other priorities; unless my situation changes in the next weeks and money starts coming in... I already stretched it longer than I had thought possible. There's that, at least. Hence why I may be a bit more acerbic than usual... getting some final punches in. If I can manage it I'll keep going, though my own echo now carries little motivation. I'm neither happy nor sad, simply, numb; I'm just tired, fed up; life, it's more hype than fun, and all things must come to an end. Any hoot. None of that is relevant to this topic... at least I'm not getting bombed.

Let's See the Modi Spinners Spin this One and not Get Dizzy 

BREAKING NEWS, right?

The British Financial Times just published this story four hours ago, 18:00 on Wednesday (at time of writing): 

US authorities thwarted a conspiracy to assassinate a Sikh separatist on American soil and issued a warning to India’s government over concerns it was involved in the plot, according to multiple people familiar with the case.

The target of the plot was Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, an American and Canadian citizen who is general counsel for Sikhs for Justice, a US-based group that is part of a movement pushing for an independent Sikh state called “Khalistan”.

US President Joe Biden raised the matter in a discussion with India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a meeting at the G20 summit in New Delhi in September, the Financial Times has learnt.

...

India has accused Canada, the UK and other countries with large Indian diaspora communities of being too tolerant of members of the Sikh separatist movement, which it frequently accuses of terrorism.

During a visit to Washington in September, Jaishankar told a Hudson Institute event that Ottawa had a “very permissive” attitude towards Sikh separatists because of Canadian politics. (Source)

It's not that we have a "permissive" attitude, it's that we respect all minorities and human rights, and we don't abuse the "terrorist" label for lame self-serving reasons, and aren't authoritarian oppressive fascists who say anything but do the contrary.

Lemme guess, New Delhi will just deny this and claim that it's a Western plot to subjugate India?

(Note: With the FT piece being published a few hours ago, what precedes and follows this section was written without taking into account this new development, though none of it affects the position I've held, it merely confirms it.)

It's Not Just Canada Who Finds India's Requests Abusive, and Won't Comply Based on What's Provided

Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, a lawyer, has been seen as a real thorn in New Delhi's side for a couple of years now. He's really made enemies with the BJP when he had filed a lawsuit in the US against PM Modi for events that had occurred in Gujarat, India, in 2008, for which Modi has been accused of inaction, though some, like the BBC, are convinced that Modi played a more active role in the riots that had broken out, high-hundreds being killed, the majority being Muslims.

The Hindus had gone nuts, raping and massacring communities in reaction to a train fire that had killed those trapped inside a passenger car; the majority that died in that fire were Hindus. Hindus were certain that Muslims had started the fire, but there's never been any proof of that. Others have accused Modi of starting the fire in order to trigger the riots, but this, also, isn't substantiated.

I'll try to address this in another post, as there's much there that deserves its own focus. 

Pannun also filed cases on behalf of Khalistanis. None of the suits amounted to anything, though they did manage to garner some media attention that related events would not have received otherwise.

In any case, the point I want to make in this section regards accusations made by New Delhi concerning Canada's handling of their requests, which they claim PM Trudeau never took seriously as he's too soft on terrorism, facilitates it, and he's more interested in pandering to Sikhs for their votes, having fallen under their spell.

Canada's position has always been: Based on what's provided, we can't comply with India's extradition request. 

India, through its media, would then follow up by insulting Canada. 

Well, Interpol must be filled with the same bleeding-heart losers, I'm guessing? Is that it? Or is it because only entitled supremacist fools would think that a list of names is sufficient for a country to send citizens to their death? Because, knowing of India's treatment of those it deems to be terrorists, that's pretty much what it entails. Minimally, severe abuses and torture are on the menu, and Pannun did nothing that would warrant that despite all that the media claims he's responsible for, though nothing 'official' is ever offered in support of those accusations.

Regression Does not a Global Leader Make

The difference between Canada and today's India is that Canada allows folks to discuss "separatist" desires and to take proper, political, and legal moves to realize such goals should sufficient numbers demonstrate the same desire and validity is ascribed by shared grievances.

Canada and Quebec establish that as fact, talk of separation occasionally becoming a 'main' topic still, though it now barely holds attention for more than five minutes. In the 1960s, at the height of our "silent revolution", English Canada met the then talk of secession with oppressive means meant to silence the French, which led to the Front de la libération du Québec (FLQ) and bombs in mailboxes, and the kidnapping of two political figures, one of which was killed in the course of events.

The FLQ, considered a terrorist group by the Canadian government, was comprised of seven Quebeckers acting independently. 

That sequence of events and having the army land in Montreal and Quebec City had a truly sobering effect on all politicians and Quebeckers, as well as much of the Anglos, though some in the West, themselves having strong movements pushing for a separation from Canada for all that's east of Ontario, saw that as a reason to hate Quebeckers all the more as the human aspect was sidelined for an emphasis on policy positions that didn't give them what they wanted, Quebec being opportunistically blamed for that.

Nonetheless, the atmosphere changed overnight once the FLQ ordeal was over, and talk of separation became as accepted a political topic as health care or education. We were finally able to bring a referendum to the table, twice; they didn't go through. And Canada is now stronger because of it.

While only a tiny group of hardline anti-confederation federalists still occasionally bring up the subject, everyone else stopped caring after the second referendum, for the people had their say, and we want to remain in Canada.

Had the Anglos kept suppressing any discussion of the topic, relying on violent, human-rights-violating means to do so, like India, its clear that this would have fostered increased anger and a subsequent increase in hatred, separation becoming an obsession of sorts with a wider, collectively-shared goal to break the shackles of second-class citizenry and escape the oppression, this, no doubt, accentuating the violence triggered by Ottawa's initial attitude on the matter. 

India, on the other hand, will bash you on the head and stick you in a jail to rot for an indeterminate period of time simply for having a sign that says "Free Khalistan". Plus, their revised UAPA now allow New Delhi to treat any individual like a terrorist organisation, and to take preemptive steps to block any act of terrorism before there's even any sign of such an activity even being planned, which translates into authorities being allowed to throw anyone in jail without any reason being provided.

For New Delhi, the mere mention of Khalistan in a public setting reveals one's desire to attack and destabilize Indian sovereignty and undermine the state's security, making one a terrorist.

For those that the MMM present as evil monsters that are a threat to India and the world, the "Khalistani terrorist" label, with all sorts of fears having been synthetically attached to it, is meant to sow fear in any good, moral, civic-bound citizen of the world. Ripping away the MMM's idiocy and seeing what charges are actually valid and based on facts—not one's hatred of a whole group and the prejudices these feed—what one is left with in most cases is an absolute joke that would have the majority in the West instantly protesting the mere mention of such a course without giving a thought to whether doing so was the right thing. Which, on this, makes support for New Delhi coming from many Western rightwingers a clear sign that they're going off a completely bogus interpretation and simply, and very stupidly, playing tribal politics. Hence, their opinion on this matter is worthless, and dangerous.

To these: Do you seriously want us to believe that you'd be OK with the US government labeling someone a terrorist, then treat them accordingly, unleashing its agencies on that individual because they graffitied "Free Texas" or similar on a city building? Because that's mostly what you're backing if supporting India on this.

Ironically, some of those readily offering a "Hell, no!" for Texas are probably OK with the ADL designating US students who voiced pro-Palestinian support "terrorists". Well, you know the slogans, right? If them, then one day it'll be you they'll be coming after.

When all's said and done, Canada is accused of being a friend to monsters and encouraging terrorism for refusing to take steps that would prevent Sikhs to even think about "Khalistan" and, therefore, is responsible for Sikh and other terrorism in India, is exactly New Delhi's complaint, and don't be fooled by any of their phrasing.

And that's why, on this issue, I haven't been shy and I've been firm, and I don't mind repeating a vey emphatic: Fuck you, New Delhi!

Because Black groups have opted for violent means to fight for their rights does not invalidate the goal of all Black human rights groups nor imply that all Blacks or Black human rights groups are violent.

I can think of many far more productive ways of dealing with the Khalistan issue than with brutish idiocy; there's even ways of giving them what they want while keeping Khalistan a part of India. But beat people on the head while claiming to love them and wonder why they want to leave, why don't you? Who knows, one day stupidity may be trendy again, and considered to be the real smart, perhaps?

And if the Hindus want their state, why force the Sikhs to remain a part of India if it's just to treat them even more like second-class citizens, beat on them and not respect their religious and political desires?

I'm not trying to be insulting, just honest: Where's the "smart" in any of what New Delhi is doing vis-à-vis minority groups in several states? That the terrorism issue in J&K is resolved is BS—pro-Palestinian protests wouldn't be banned otherwise—and whatever appears to be a positive is one-sided, the illusion obscuring the fact that India may very well wake up with many Manipurs on its hands fairly soon.   

Talking Up. Trading Down.

In the first post I did that addressed Hardeep Singh Nijjar's assassination, I had voiced disgust at the Indian Media, India Today, primarily, as their only concern was on PM Trudeau having put a halt on trade talks between Canada and India, whining incredulity at the thought that Canada would set economic matters aside for a scum-animal like Nijjar. I was deeply disgusted with the attitude demonstrated, and, so, had no problem believing that New Delhi was behind the killing; the detachment shown wasn't limited to one or two outlets, it was the norm among all the MMMs.   

The worst part is that a few days later the Indian media was claiming that Modi had stopped trade talks with Canada, being too insulted by Trudeau's allegation to deal with us.

The impression I was left with was that New Delhi felt emboldened, seeing itself on top of the world and desired by all, and believing itself far too important to the 'new world order' and the only country able to set the course it were to take, and, so, believed itself able to carry out such acts and that no nation would risk upsetting New Delhi over it.

Now, I'm almost certain that's precisely what motivated their move, and that India is behind the killing.    

And the more they try to push things, the more it's backfiring on them.    

As such, perhaps hoping that things will simply go back to normal and all will simply forget the affair, after having reinstated most visas for Canadian nationals close to two weeks ago, India now announced today that it was reinstating e-visas for Canadians. This too was mostly done in a hushed manner.

And it came right after the MMM had launched another anti-Canada campaign while they focused on Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, India's counterterrorism force having opened a file on him on Monday after a two-month long sting by a Police Special Cell had led to the arrest of a youth who'd spray painted pro-Khalistan graffiti around New Delhi before the G20 summit. More on Pannun below.

Meanwhile, the shameless opportunist turd that is Pierre Poilièvre...:

In April 2023, Conservative Party leader, Pierre Poilievre, "condemned the growing number of Hinduphobic incidents in the country. In an interview with Prime Asia, he stated: “We have to stop Hinduphobia and nasty comments that are made about Hindus and the vandalism and other violence targeting Hindu Canadians. This is totally unacceptable.” Referring to the incidents of Hindu temples being vandalized, he proposed giving places of worship government funds for security equipment and resources." (Source)

The vandalism referred to is graffiti. That's it. Wasting tax dollars on pandering to New Delhi and fueling their abuses, for votes, seems like way more callous and careless spending than on what he spends his days nagging Trudeau about as he promises tax cuts for the rich.

I really don't like the little turd. Mini Trump wannabe. 

Slave of Appeasement Versus Fascist Lord of Hate

"Appeasement" seems to have become a dirty word for much of the Hindu population; to nationalists, it signals weakness.

Appeasement. That's how the Hindus refer to anything done by the government that benefits the Muslims. 

Yesterday, The New Indian Express announced that the opposition leader, Rahul Gandhi, heading the Congress Party and the INDIA coalition, had changed tactics, choosing to attack the nationalist forces led by Modi and the BJP in lieu of policy discussions: 

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi launched a massive attack against RSS and the BJP for spreading hate in the country. Addressing two rallies in Rajasthan Rahul argued the major agenda of RSS and BJP only to misguide people in the name of religion and spread a divisive agenda in the society. He claimed that the real intent of the polarising hate is to keep the poor and the weaker sections of society away from vital issues of unemployment and inflation. 

In a fiery public meeting at Vallabhnagar in Udaipur, Rahul Gandhi showed the mirror to BJP, RSS, and PM Narendra Modi, stating, "The question is, why is BJP spreading hatred in the country? I want to tell you two things: the reason for hatred is unemployment and inflation."

Gandhi accused the BJP and RSS, saying, "The aim of BJP and RSS is to keep the poor, labourers, farmers, tribals, and Dalits away from money. They want all the money to be given to a handful of billionaires." (Source)

Good for him. Though I'm certain he's well aware that he's chosen a tough and dangerous road—he's already faced arrest and jail as well as a suspension, which was later overturned, simply for having referred to Modi in a manner that was taken to be an insult, even if arguably so.

Fascism is what a fascist does.

And if you think I'm merely being insulting with my use of "fascist", read the RSS literature and think again: It proudly embraces the "fascist" label, albeit per its original definition and not today's loose sense that conflates vague notions into an insult meant to refer to a "racist mega-bully".    

Hopefully Gandhi will be able to wake up a significant number of Hindus. The way the BJP rigged the system, non-BJP supporters have a tough fight ahead of them. Plus, the game Modi is playing translates into hate campaigns that manage to rally Hindus, and, with all the lies, as more make a turn toward nationalism, even more buy into the lies and greater numbers are being pulled toward the movement.

People may be fooled, but people aren't fools; the right doubt being seeded and one or two other missteps, and the whole thing could come crashing down pretty quickly... though that's easier said than done.

Defining a Designated Definition Designation

The US designates, and defines, "Terrorism" per the following:

In addition to the 29 individuals and entities designated by the President and listed in the Annex to the Executive Order, as amended by Executive Order 13268 of July 2, 2002, the Order provides authority for the designation (and blocking of assets) of additional individuals or entities (defined to mean partnerships, associations, corporations, or other organizations, groups, or subgroups):

  • The Secretary of State, in consultation with the Secretary of the Treasury and the Attorney General, may designate foreign individuals or entities that he determines have committed, or pose a significant risk of committing, acts of terrorism that threaten the security of U.S. nationals or the national security, foreign policy, or economy of the U.S.;
  • The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General, may designate individuals or entities that are determined:
  • To be owned or controlled by, or act for or on behalf of an individual or entity listed in the Annex to the Order or by or for persons determined to be subject to subsection 1(b), 1(c), or 1(d)(i) of this Order;
  • To assist in, sponsor, or provide financial, material, or technological support for, or financial or other services to or in support of, acts of terrorism or individuals or entities designated in or under the Order; or
  • To be otherwise associated with certain individuals or entities designated in or under the Order.

For the purpose of the Order, “terrorism” is defined to be an activity that (1) involves a violent act or an act dangerous to human life, property, or infrastructure; and (2) appears to be intended to intimidate or coerce a civilian population; to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, kidnapping, or hostage-taking.

Hin Do't What? In Dude Vat? You Speaking Urdu?

Hindus are a people, Hindi their primary language; Hinduism is a characteristic, Hindutva is a state of mind.

I'm not sure if today's version is anything like when I was young, but the Western equivalent of Hindutva would be the Boy Scouts, but if with a more militant attitude and training (see: paramilitary), and if with a white nationalist ideal and an evangelical faith.

Hindutva is often described as Hindu "rightwing nationalism" albeit "ultra-nationalist" and "extreme/far-right" are often used interchangeably, the intensity one assigns to the ideology having much to do with one's personal feelings toward it.

Nonetheless, it is wrong to think of it as a tame and moderate, discipline-building, civic-duty fortifying after-work/after-school style of club in the same way that the Boy Scouts/Girl Guides can be thought of, though all these "boys'/girls' clubs", like Air/Ground/Sea Cadets, the SS Youth, Boy/Cub Scouts, etc., all had a very narrow, forge-good-citizens aim that pushed and promoted strong patriotism even if without a paramilitary focus, such as Boy Scouts. As such, these become good vehicles for nationalist intent no matter their goal.

Hindutva, however, offers no polite pretense to dress up its very nationalistic goals. Adherents often claim that Hindutva is the "state of Hinduism", though here "state" is meant to be taken as "condition", but an Hindu state is, indeed, their main goal. 

Also, it's inaccurate to call Hindutva an "ethno-nationalist" organisation or a "religious nationalist" one, but "ethno-religious nationalism" is on the money. 

One of the better papers I've read, called "Hindutva Violence in India" (link below), offers this description:  

Hindutva is a modern political ideology that views India as a Hindu nation and defines Indian culture in terms of Hindu cultural values. Its goal is to make India a Hindu state. In his 1923 treatise, Hindutva ideologue Vinayak Damodar Sarvarkar said that Hindus are the only true Indians as their pitrbhu (fatherland) and punyabhu (holy land) are in India. Muslims and Christians, however, could not be considered Indian as their holy lands were not in India but in “far off  Arabia or Palestine.” Sarvarkar’s ideological successor, Madhav Sadashiv Golwalkar, who was one of the founders of the RSS said that the “foreign races” i.e. Muslims and  Christians in India “must either adopt the Hindu culture and language, must learn to respect and hold in reverence Hindu religion ... must lose their separate existence to merge in the Hindu race, or … stay in the country wholly subordinated to the Hindu Nation, claiming nothing, deserving no privileges, far less any preferential treatment—not even citizen's rights.”

(Counter Terrorist Trends and Analyses , Vol. 12, No. 4 (June 2020), pp. 15-20)

Another offers:

Hindu Nationalism (Hindutva) is as an ideology premised on otherization. It constructs an idealized Hindu as the archetypical citizen of India. Through the superiorization of the Hindu, Hindutva necessarily imagines an array of identities to be unworthy of belonging to its conception of India. Hindutva’s otherization project inferiorizes a number of identities: Dalits, liberals, Christians, feminists, but most of all, Muslims (Sharma 2011). Hindutva thus envisions India to have always been a Hindu nation, and perceives Islam and Muslims as an alien force which, through invasion and war, caused a seismic demographic shift to the detriment of the natural state of Hinduness in the subcontinent (Flåten 2016).

Betraying One's Pro-Imperialist and Supremacist Bubble

“Vantage” on India’s Firstpost’s offered plenty of hypocrisy across several segments, and much to be disturbed by in the Friday, 17-Nov-2023 edition, which featured a lead about TikTok and a “Letter to America” written by Osama Bin Laden.  

Their site also had a seriously problematic piece about “what the world should learn from India” in regard to events in Gaza, leaders being urged to emulate India, as the nation had the properly strong and wise leader who applied the correct and virtuous way of dealing with terrorists; in fact, since Modi has been in office, the number of terrorists has gone way done, claims the author (No it hasn’t, says I, who looked at the numbers, having a far better view on the matter than any Hindu, apparently; more below).

The host, Palki Sharma, acting with gratuitous flabbergast as she chastised kids for being too ignorant to appreciate that Bin Laden is a terrorist and too naïve to seize what that entails, acted as if the teens and young adults had spent a weekend at an ISIL training camp.

“One of the reasons was Israel, saying that the Jews were driving the Palestinians out of their land., Of course that’s not the real reason. The real reason is that Bin Laden was a radicalized mass-murderer terrorist, but tell that to users on TikTok.”

Well, only thing I can say to that: That was a far more foolish and unwise comment than any of the ones made by the ‘young and ignorant’ TikTokers whose clips were offered as shocking and “disgusting” examples meant to have us worrying over how rash and vulnerable Western kids are.

Way to go! Why not render the deaths of the tens of thousands that occurred prior to 9/11, on 9/11, and after that horrible day totally meaningless, why don’t you? Because that’s precisely the way to do it, and doing it in an efficiently ignorant manner, might I add.

The important thing is to provide a proper context and to not glorify Bin Laden. But everyone should read that letter, though now it’s a bit harder, The Guardian having pulled it—after having it up for 21 years—in thanks to reactionary idiocy.

Sharma displays the same naveling, elitist snobbery and bigotry that’s typical of Hindutva pushers, and she exhibits the uptight, boxed-in and irrational views that give sense to the nationalist nonsense whose validity is confirmed by other Hindutva pushers and xenophobic supremacist-aligned bigots across the globe; given her opinions and put downs, I think it’s fair to say that she’s wholly out of touch with the “real world” and working-class issues.

Maybe this explains why they reason like primates on the topic of terrorism? It could also explain why xenophobia and bigotry ooze out of them when they’re discussing such topics?

To think that such an event shouldn’t be properly understood, reducing it to “an unthinking madman did it” is absolutely asinine and ludicrous. But it is the type of position held by unthinking automatons who think the state should have a tight control on info.

Sadly, her own government proves why that’s a stupid idea; her role in media reinforces the stupidity.

Albeit framed within a certain chauvinism and a typical rightwing intolerance, Bin Laden identifies many actual and justified grievances, and whether or not all he offers justifies anger is moot, for he’s explaining the motivation behind the act, and Americans deserve more than the lies offered by Washington, which reduced the act to “they’re jealous of our freedom.”

Best way to repeat history? Ignorance of historic facts.

Plus, the US ‘created’ him and the jihadist groups that all are supposed to simply accept as crazy “mass-murdering terrorists”, so, only fascist, elitist idiots—probably with shares in weapons manufacturers—can possibly see value in denying any of that, and in crushing any material that holds the truth.

Neocons and neocon-ish types are letting a label like “terrorist” turn their brain to mush; must be why they can’t seize the simple fact that they’re protecting bigger terrorists by making what Bin Laden expressed remain unknown.

The letter calls out injustices done to Muslims, putting emphasis on Palestine but also mentioning Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Somalia, Chechnya, Lebanon, and Kashmir.

Ah! “Kashmir”. The last provides enough of a reason, it seems, for the Modi government to ban anything that qualifies as a “pro-Palestinian” rally or protest, especially in the state of Jammu & Kashmir. The reason: The Muslims in J&K relate heavily with the Palestinians and their situation, having long endured a situation that’s almost identical to the Palestinians’, but without US money openly helping India with their own “Muslim problem”.

Here’s what the bigoted Hindutva terrorist failed to mention: Yashar Ali, a journalist, posted a compilation of some of the TikTok videos with the hashtag #lettertoamerica on X; his post received over 38 million views. This, in turn, generated just under 13 million posts with the hashtag, which had only two million entries with that hashtag before journalists called everyone’s attention to it.

Sharma cites the 14 million (actually closer to 15 million), feeding viewers the completely false impression that those were 14 million “disgusting” and wayward kids.

She then uses that to boast that India was the first nation to ban TikTok, not having allowed it into the country at all. Even more deranged is the way she spins that into an example for why the government should control info and ensure that only “good” info reaches kids. She then adds, I kid you not: It’s a good thing that Modi wants to impose control on information, Prime Minister Modi cares for India and its people.

Wow. Braindead cultist, much?

Professional news tellers are severely lacking on the “professional” these days, is my experience. Doubly so if Indian, it seems.

But here’s the really interesting bit that shows her for the state tool she is: Guess where in the world boasts the most annual sales of Mein Kampf, this being so for decades?

India.

And, by the way, most copies of Mein Kampf feature the following caveat, usually referencing the translator:

“Mein Kampf is an evil book but it remains necessary reading for those who seek to understand the Holocaust, (for) the students of totalitarian psychology and for all who care to safeguard democracy.”

According to historian and Hitler expert Daniel Pick, from Bikbeck, University of London, he explains India’s Mein Kampf obsession with:

'Well, the idea of Aryan mythology has been appealing,' Pick suggested. 'It has also been used by Hindu nationalists.'

Sharma. You friggin’ hypocrite, you.

"Vandalism" Seems to Mean "BS" in Hindi

Image not foundThe MMM have been constantly accusing Canada of being a "safe haven for terrorists," and one of the ways it's attempted to do that is by asserting that an atmosphere of anti-India and Hindu hate was being allowed to ferment in Canada, who was doing its best to ensure a rich and protected fermentation of Khalistani ideals on our soil so that, in essence, Canada was helping Sikhs with terrorist-leanings to grow a culture of anti-India terrorism, playing a hand in corrupting innocent Indians coming to Canada only to come face to face with the type of hate all Indian children are warned about...   

That's just vile, and insultingly reductive, as well as being nothing more than irresponsible deflection that betrays a callous disregard for those factors that differentiate humans from animals, because, I suppose, human rights don't apply to people who are successfully turned into animals in the public eye.

Plus, through the RSS and its many organisations and chapters (over 700 in the US), New Delhi manages to lean on its citizens even if overseas, and uses fear and other incentives to mobilize people to serve their cause. 

And by acting in such a manner, along with all the lies telling Hindus that they are under threat in Canada, guess who's truly responsible for creating that "atmosphere of hate and fear"? Image not found

That's terrorist behaviour, plain and simple. Especially with assassinations thrown in. 

Under the current government, India is a terrorist state. Hard to disagree with that, though they can deny it.

However, going back to the sovereignty-destroying graffiti—which makes it the most fragile sovereignty ever seen—

I'll discuss the graffiti in greater detail in another post, but here's an example of a "terrorist act" terrorizing Hindus: On a Hindu temple in Vancouver, pro-Khalistan posters calling for the Canadian government to investigate Nijjar's death were taped on the front doors (right). That's it!

That was followed by idiotic nagging from New Delhi, who summoned a Canadian diplomat to give him shit, etc. So friggin' absurd. Talk about feeling entitled, and supremacist thinking, holy!

This type of thing is what got the pandering turd to press for $5 million to be given to minority religious groups, in order to boost security around their place of prayer; this was announced 7-Nov-2023.

And here's one way to tell that it's nothing more than BS to manipulate public sentiments, calls of "Hindu hate" being nothing more than a bullying tactic used to play off of any shame that "Hinduphobia" is meant to generate, having learned from Israel's weaponisation of "anti-Semitism", all these other vandalisms which occurred in recent years, below, which provide just a tiny example of all that's documented.

Asian countries don't just vandalize with a bit of spray paint. Some of these temples had to be rebuilt if not a complete write off. In one of them, over 70 Hindu temples were destroyed in a single year.

And there's been worse cases of vandalism in the US, but only Canada is the problem, not having a handle on terrorists... something wrong with that picture.

Brief DetourImage not found

In the previous piece I'd posted on Iran and the clear activist/Conservative/Global News joint effort to pressure the Liberal government into adding Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to the terrorist organisation list, I'd mentioned being reminded of India's efforts through the way it was falsely representing our handling of issues relating to terrorists.

The Global News piece had quoted the Iranian-American activist as saying that "Canada is a haven for Islamic Republic agents."

Reality being quite different, playing on that suggests that those involved in that ploy got their inspiration form New Delhi's efforts; they simply wanted take advantage of that, as well as the timing due to the situation in Gaza and all those Western warmongers attempting to tie Iran into the mix, dying to bomb the crap out of it.

So, through such influence, it's pretty clear that the Indians are being a big menace to our sovereignty and democratic freedoms, and undermining our national security, and they're playing with our ideals, trying to impose changes that compromise said security, doing so for their own wants. And it's the Indian state, its agents, and its MMM, who have been fanning the most undue hatred and fear through their messaging, their sensationalist and unsubstantiated "breaking news" filled with holes, hence, with their shameless lies and sociopathic approach to governance and news.

India is a terrorist state.

As a quick aside, as I'll discuss this in another post: "banned" is another term that will always accompany the mention of certain groups; always! But so what? In most cases, banning is more reflective of New Delhi's obsession and intolerance than a sure sign that a group is truly 'bad'. Plus, for a while, the RSS was banned and illegal in India; the only reason why it isn't anymore is because supporters managed to gain power and removed the ban. Should Sikhs gain power and remove the ban on SFJ and put one another on the RSS, maybe you'd understand better how certain qualifiers are political and not a real sign of what it is the media is implying when using them. Ditto on who is regarded a terrorist group. The MMM often mention that Hamas is recognized as a terrorist organisation by the US, but only 7 countries apply that label on Hamas, plus two others that consider only the al-qassam brigades to be a terrorist group and not all of Hamas. Readily adhering to such labels like the Indian media do, it may fool the ignoramus and the nationalist xenophobic bigots—though that's a neoplasm, should one feel like getting technical—but it brands one as an automated cog in a propaganda machine to anyone with any smarts and awareness of media; it makes one a tool, in every sense of the word.

Khalistani Sikh, Gurpatwant Singh Pannun

I don't know if they fancy themselves cunning and wise for playing such games, but the way they play them makes it amply clear that they don't take justice seriously, either. If one is from any of the non-Hindu groups in the region or a Muslim from anywhere, the Modi media already judged the person and have a verdict and fuck waiting for any facts! Just by the looks, sometimes by the prayers... if they match the accusations, then they deserve to have "terrorist" or "love jihadist" or "child rapist" in front of their name.

If you don't like it, then don't be accused of anything.

And it's the trial's duty to prove the media right, damnit! Don't you people have justice out West?

I can only imagine they haven't a clue how truly idiotic, irresponsible, closedmindedly uncouth, and stuck in a bipolar and bigoted world they really do come across as.

I'm not taking an opposing position on this just to be antagonistic to Indians; I'm not just saying that the Hindutva pushers and their media are despicable and I find their mindset deeply sickening just for fun, just to get a rise out of an Indian or two. Nor am I not doing this because, deep down, I'm an Hinduphobe, Indophobe, or anti-India, and I want as many terrorists as possible running wild across India.

It's because I truly value human rights, and because I place tremendous importance on info, news, and the media's responsibility. And it's because I see intense violence in a near future if the course India is on isn't changed.

And free speech, I'll have you notice, figures in there, too, but note that's it never been my focus other than how it relates to Indian media.

In regard to this and other issues—even that of free speech—there's a deeper, more important facet that needs to be resolved. As concerns the Hindutva poison, forcing its pushers to justify their goals in a manner that elicits an admission as a form of defense will, undeniably, reveal the Hindu-supremacist attitudes, ideals, and intentions for all to see, or, hopefully, snap one or two brainwashed bigots out of the ethno-religious ultra-nationalist cult that has them acting like major idiots and believing that such idiocy is normal and acceptable, so they can then snap a few more out, and so on, and so on...

I did notice a clear shift in the manner that key individuals addressed certain topics or made certain claims the day after I'd posted part 2, the parallel with what I'd discussed struck me as being too on point to be a coincidence.

The Minister of External Affairs S. Jaishankar was one of these, the responses he gave to the interviewer during a public discussion in London indicating a conscious shift in his handling, applying a careful consideration to his choice of words and expressions as he answered.

But back to Pannun.

In a short video released about a month ago, Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, a pro-Khalistani Sikh and lawyer based in New-Jersey, offered this message:

"We are asking the Sikhs not to fly Air India on 19th November. On 19th November, there will be a global blockade and the Air India will not be allowed to fly anywhere across the world. Sikhs, you do not travel by Air India after 19th November. It can be life-threatening. This is my warning to the government of India. The Indira Gandhi International Airport should remain closed on the 19th of November," he said in a 1.37-second video.

The Hindutva terrorists at Firstpost, establishing yet again their fondness for deviations, exaggerations, manipulations, and flat-out lies, turned that into a firm conclusion offered as this assertion: "Almost a week after Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun threatened to “blow up” an Air India flight on November 19[.]"

The Hindutva terrorists at India TV News introduced the topic as: 

An Indian diaspora panel has sought to include Khalistani terrorist Gurpatwant Singh Pannun and his banned organisation Sikhs For Justice (SFJ) on the no-fly list over his recent threat towards the Indian government and Air India to blow up the flight on November 19.

Unfortunately, not possessing the relevant level of self-awareness, the Firstpost and other MMM terrorist propagandists fail to seize the how and why they're directly responsible for that fear and a sense of menace they blame Canada for. They clearly enjoy spreading fear and hate far more than accurate info and intelligent news, one has to believe, given that all they opt to make their focus are either self-generated idiocies or pre-packaged prejudices, both offering the stupidest, most puerile understanding of "terrorist" I've ever come across.

Claiming he "threatened to 'blow up' an Air India flight on November 19" offers nothing but wrong facts, the three assertions offered in that claim being imposed firm interpretations that aren't even stated in the original statement.

Pannum never made what actually qualifies as a threat; there's zero mention of blowing anything up, and 19-Nov signals a change occurring on that date, not necessarily an event.

Finally, did anything happen on that day?

I agree that calling him in for a nice chat with authorities is amply warranted after making such a video, but for all we know, he could have been talking about a legal procedure that would ground flights. My point, any assertion is speculation, and to draw such conclusions like the Indian media did, it's wholly unprofessional, and far from impartial, and it's despicable, and betrays how hand-in-hand with the state the media is, which could explain why they don't bother with any thinking: they don't have to, the state does it for them. Idiots. 

I know I'm repeating myself, but how can I not: The combination of idiocy and hate that the Indian mainstream embrace turn the Indian news landscape into a toxic heap of garbage that does nothing but harm while keeping Indians ignorant. Countries should ban Indian outlets until they smarten up.

Are these people not intelligent enough and so devoid of good sense that they haven't managed to put two and two together and make the connection between their trashy, bigotry-fueled and hate-filled propaganda they call "news" and what plays out, along with the venom heard in the ever-more frequent street clashes? And the 'bad people' are always non-Hindus who've acted in ways that always match the Hindu prejudices to a tee, fancy that.

Ever consider that, perhaps, India has the highest number of violent clashes per year and the highest number of separatist groups—is there a "terrorist" outfit whose goal isn't "peace from New Delhi"?—as well as ranking among the worst human rights offenders, that all of that is for reasons that are related to the one constant: Hindus?

Based on the criteria provided by New Delhi and its media whenever they're outlining why one is a terrorist, then the "2015 Nepal Blockade" sure as hell qualifies as terrorism. The MEA, S. Jaishankar, he was behind that, and acting as PM Modi's personal envoi, I believe... They deny it but no one believes it, and, anyhow, facts are tertiary to impressions and one's ethno-religious background, but all non-Hindus should add Jaishankar and Modi to their list of terrorists, methinks.

Plain and simple, no buts about it. The Nepalese suffered far more than a wall with graffiti. And that's just one example. I've more.

How absolutely fucking insane is that? Abusing people's rights and the legal system and putting someone through hell, having officially labeled them a "terrorist" because they graffitied a wall, having chosen one that was sure to be noticed in order to make a point and make it count, because, guess what? The kind of oppression they're subjected to, and all the abuses carried out, well, that does tend to produce a lot of pent up rage.Image not found

And, under such idiocy, peace can only be maintained as long as the government keeps its knee on those they want to keep down and silence, which means living under the illusion of peace, not a real one, and you'll find yourself dealing with far more angrier people the minute that knee comes off. Not much happens to such nations. 

And I know what you're thinking; give it up. That airliner was 40 years ago, but still gets brought up, and in an insulting manner—because they dish it is why I allow myself to be as blunt as I am with the Hindutvas—treating it as if everyone not in agreement with New Delhi is responsible for that tragic event. And every Sikh that the Indians are telling us are tied to that act in order to render all the more terrifying and dangerous the "Khalistani terrorist" label they apply like automated idiots, they were barely kids at the time. Doing the math before making such accusations demands too much professionalism and/or the basic set of 'good' morals and work ethics, which the MMM news people don't possess, is that it?  

Because Black groups have opted for violent means to fight for their rights does not invalidate the goal of all Black human rights groups nor imply that all Blacks or Black human rights groups are violent.

How absolutely fucking insane is that? Abusing rights and the legal system and putting someone through hell, having officially labeled them a "terrorist" because they graffitied a wall, choosing one that was sure to be noticed because, guess what? The kind of oppression they're subjected to, and all the abuses, that tends to produce a lot of pent up rage.

While New Delhi continually boasts now having a handle on the terrorism problem, having practically eradicated it, I see a whole other and far uglier situation.

A growing portion of the population is living under increased fear, and the number of attacks has actually gone up.

Those claiming that those issues relating to terrorism, insurgency, group violence, and separatism, etc., all those acts that earn one the "terrorist" moniker from Modi and media, if one says they've improved, that's because one is looking at things all wrong. And it betrays the illiberal, exclusive, and fascist mindset at work and the ingrained, tacit discrimination that one functions under and assumes to be normal.

It's not. You're just too much a part of it to see it. Like a fish who can't see water. Or you're a sick individual who sees it but is no better than any KKK member or Nazi who justified their lack of humanity and dead conscience through the grossest of hate.

Looking at numbers and the actual fears voiced, the Sangh Parivar group of organisations presents, by far, the biggest umbrella of interconnected terrorist organisations. Period.

By the way, to support my claims that the MMM excels in manipulative hypocrisy, have a look at the grab featuring Sullivan; the Indian's version (that one from Firstpost) omits the clearest message Sullivan had made: The US stands by Canada and urges India to collaborate.  

•     •     •

It's not readily apparent to Westerners because all that wraps it is foreign and alien and obscures what's instantly identified as traits and symbols of such 'societies' in our Western versions, but, after a while, through the applied methods and behavioural patterns and what's constantly expressed and what isn't, along with the omnipresent hate, the lack of empathy, and a cold, cruel ruthlessness that finds comfort in killing—for one's own security—it becomes real hard to not be completely turned off by Hindutva pushers unless one is already filled with hate, in which case, one finds satisfying confirmation for their ungrounded bigotry and racism. 

If terrorism—the behaviour—was truly seen as something as vile and as obscene as New Delhi claims to see it, its indignation being amplified by the mainstream news and the hardliners, then, all those voicing concern, ready to shoot a person in the head on the spot if caught carrying out the devil's work, i.e. spray a graffito; a slogan, these people should all readily agree then, to label the following groups "terrorist organisation": Bhartiya Gau Raksha Dal, Bajrang Dal, Shiv Sena,  Vishva Hindu Parishad, Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad, the RSS, and the Hindutva ideology would already be banned. 

"Saffron Terror" is a real thing. And those groups I list ARE terrorist organisations, this being so no matter the definition one actually uses instead of relying on one's bigotry and hate to set the bar and criteria, allowing people to be dragged off for any reason. And they're clearly more so than a vast majority of organisations found on the endless list of banned groups, India's list of terrorist organisations at least 100 times bigger than any other country's list. That says a lot, and what it says disagrees with New Delhi's claims. 

That said, if the xenophobic-driven, neurotically-insecure, high-intensity paranoiacs were truly worried about terrorism in all its forms and really wanted to eliminate it, there'd actually be at least one Hindu group on that list, and there'd be a fair, proportionate representation of oppressed Indians being jailed—but not told why—and tortured and abused by a fascist, authoritarian regime.

And if they truly wanted to turn their efforts into a positive, they'd pay closer attention to how China is handling its Islamist extremists. The Uyghur rehabilitation camps are precisely that, and two new studies, done without any political aim or interference, laud the wonders of the Chinese program and how it manages to deradicalize folks and integrate them back into regular Uyghur society. 

And, rather than paying attention and learning from their efforts, India has been barking the loudest about a "Uyghur genocide". 

And that's why Modi and his Mob, along with the MMM, aren't folks I can take seriously. Perhaps because, not being Hindu, I've none of the emotional baggage that makes many vulnerable, hence susceptible to buy into all the BS I see as evident lies?

They're constantly lying as far as news and the state of affairs goes, so, whether immoral or amoral, I'm not sure which, but I am sure about many of them being criminals due to the serious human rights violations they end up encouraging, excusing with their lies.Image not found

Deny those abuses; the proof is there. It will catch up to all of you!

By the Way

I certainly hope that no resources were spared to bring the Hindu responsible for that graffiti to justice. All terrorists are evil and a risk to India, right? New Delhi's words, not mine. And such graffiti should be treated as terrorist act unless Modi wants to be accused of favoritism and double-standards. Tsk, tsk.

So find that Hindu and beat them silly. Maybe chop off their arms and take their kids away, as well as any property they own!

All terrorists must be eliminated! 

Evil Is...

The claims that thoughts of Khalistan are now virtually non-existent in the Punjabi Sikhs and that it's only those outside of India that still manifest such a desire, the intensity shifting based on the permissiveness of other governments, Canada being a grand facilitator, that too is complete BS. 

That people are afraid to mention Khalistan due to the hell that it may unleash on them is an entirely different situation than people no longer pining for a Khalistan. And after Nijjar's death, the protests in Amritsar, Punjab, reminded New Delhi of that reality... so they responded with hundreds of arrests, and seized the property of a few, even bulldozed a few homes, this type of punishment being but one lesson learned from Netanyahu.

Pannun's property is among those; a home he had and everything in it has been seized by New Delhi.

After the arrest of the guy who spray painted pro-Khalistan slogans around New Delhi, he apparently claimed that Pannun had paid him to execute the graffiti, which, whether true or not, triggered a whole whack of anti-Pannun talk and activity across Indian media.

India TV News offered this:

A group of Indian Americans and Indo-Canadians, during a panel discussion "Indians in Canada under Threat of Terror and Hate Crimes'', organised by the Foundation for India and Indian Diaspora Studies (FIIDS), said that it was time for governments to take strong action against the Khalistani terrorist.

"Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has misrepresented freedom of expression for freedom of terror and his allegations against India for the killing of extremist Niggar [sic] stirred anti-Indian and anti-Hindu crimes in Canada. His policies seem to be ignoring the threats of extremism which will ultimately adversely impact Canada," said FIIDS Chief of Policy and Strategy, Khanderao Kand.

That bit about "misrepresented freedom of expression for freedom of terror" is a truly asinine comment and, properly viewed, reflects how  

An India TV News piece offered nearly all the same bits as what one is sure to find across the MMM, but it also offers a brief breakdown of that aforementioned Indian diaspora panel; here it is:

The panel discussion focused on why Pannun and members of the SFJ were not already listed in the no-fly list for his threats against Air India, alluding to the 1985 Air India bombing that killed over 300 people.

California-based Sukhi Chahal said the Sikh for Justice did not represent Sikhs as a whole and propagated a distorted and hateful narrative against Hindus and Sikhs. Chahal also blamed the British and the Congress party for sowing hatred between the two communities and claimed that 'fake Khalistanis' are well-funded and supported by Western countries.

Furthermore, Canada-based Ruchi Walla expressed concern about the radicalisation of young Sikh individuals through incorrect historical information and asserted the importance of unity among Hindus and Sikhs.

FIIDS analyst Mohan Sonti blamed former Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, the father of the current PM, for the current threats against Hindus by Khalistani terrorists as well as the 1985 bombing. He also accused subsequent Canadian governments of nurturing and supporting the immigration of Khalistani terrorists

Image not found

You may recall a previous criticism I've made concerning how immature and pathetic an attitude the Indians consistently displayed as concerns taking one's responsibility and being accountable, and how they're always deflecting and busying themselves with blaming some other, 'cause they're never at fault?

If you paid attention to the wording in all the grabs I've included, you should have gotten some sense of that, but the last portion I included from India TV News 

•     •     •

Another great example of that disconnect and Hindutva arrogance comes from propagandist Sonam Mahajan. She's definitely what I consider to be a stupid person.

Well, on this anyway; I know nothing about the woman, but I do know that such a post shows a clear control and intent, and it isn't something one just posted to express one's general opinion; it's to push an agenda and to validate the absurd BJP claims and position. All the propagandistic elements with no basis or reasoning behind them are there.

At least now the Indian propagandists are referring to Pannun as "American" or "US-based". It wasn't the case since PM Trudeau's announcement concerning Nijjar through to last week. But they're still tying Canada to Pannun in all sorts of braindead ways.

When I started looking into him, that's when it became exceedingly clear that they were targeting Canada, as Pannun seems to spend nearly all his time in the US other than when he was directly involved in the referendums, which he'd coordinate mostly from his US office, though he also has an office address in Toronto, which still isn't Vancouver, where the MMM were, for a bit, telling us he lived. This is in the weeks following Trudeau's public announcement of an investigation in Nijjar's assassination and of India's possible link, as New Delhi, not missing a beat, immediately tried to implicate Pannun in Nijjar's death.   

And bringing up that flight. It really is all you have other than graffiti, right? Pathetic.

Too dumb or obsessed or fascist to differentiate today's situation from acts done by individuals and now-inexistent group and the mindset they operated under 40 years ago without ever mentioning the context or the events carried out by the state that led to the death of roughly 3,000 Sikhs?

Again: Because Black groups have opted for violent means does not...  Same thing applies here.

"The fact that Trudeau allowed the terrorists responsible for the bombing to be glorified for decades inside Canada's Sikh Temples has emboldened Khalistani terrorists..."

Real dumb. PM Trudeau was first voted in office on 5-Nov-2015, so, he hasn't even completed a decade yet.

Mahajan, the whole Modi government, all the news people, and anyone else that holds the same incredibly ignorant, reactive, and bigotry-fueled view that readily pins anyone who's not a Hindu a terrorist for anything that's not in line with Hindu wants and Hindu politics... you can truly be a disgusting group of people when you want to, I say. 

Also, no one glorified any terrorists. Stop being such despicable, irresponsible, and manipulative liars who are too inept to handle their own problems, thus, always deflecting, but eager to destroy anyone that some official person slapped a "terrorist" label on.

So, incredibly stupid.

As usual, forgetting a few things I really wanted to say, but since I won't remember them until I post...
