No Muslim organisation spoke against Owaisi and Azad Maidan, but they want to ban a pro-India film

Kalki

Owaisi wanted Hindus to be killed, no Muslim organisation said a word. In a feature film, Al Qaeda is shown to be Muslim, they want the film to be banned. Which country are we in? [link to film article]

More importantly, why are we scared to say this openly? Does it mean we are communal or non-seculars? I'll tell you what it means if you don't say it openly. It means you are cowards. And as cowards, you have no right to complain about the nation's affairs.

We speak of peace and harmony in our country not out of a real desire for them but out of fear of riots and loss of personal life. In turn, we agree to live like cowards. Always scared some war will be upon us. Until one day, a section of population decides that enough is enough and takes to arms resulting in bloodshed. Indians wait for such times.

It's a shame that Mumbai muslims broke the Amar Jawan memorial in Mumbai (pictured), but we hardly heard condemnations from people of any religion. And not to the same extent we hear about other religions' wrongdoings.

The muslims who cheered for Owaisi and who desecrated the Amar Jawan Memorials are non-Indians. They should be treated thus. For the sake of Hindus, and for the sake of the actual peace-loving Muslims.

How other countries have reacted to 'Swiss Black Money' compared to India

BK Chowla

As always is the case with serious issues of national importance, the one relating to Indian money in Swiss banks has been forgotten and slipped under the carpet by the guilty and perhaps, by the media. What one gets to hear of the issue is that the government has signed an agreement with Swiss authorities by which they will not divulge details of the accounts held or operated prior to year 2011.
How very convenient?

Different countries react differently to a given situation. It is all about national commitment. Isn't it?
Countries such as the US and Somalia have been able to get details of their dirty money in Swiss banks, among so many other countries.

Opposition parties in Germany’s upper house [Link to story] of Parliament on Friday blocked a new agreement with Switzerland aimed at ending a long running dispute over German tax cheats who hide their money in Swiss banks.

German authorities were also to be given more powers to seek information on German nationals’ accounts in Switzerland.
France, whose tax treaty with Swiss dates back to 1952, is also renegotiating an accord to catch tax evaders. The country’s socialist Government has promised to tax the ultra wealthy at a rate of 75 percent on earnings above $1.29 million and sees its Alpine neighbor as a heaven for citizens trying to avoid paying their share.

While, some countries are taking positive steps; as per a report of the Asian Development Bank (unconfirmed), Vietnam has amended its laws so as to enable dirty money to be parked in Vietnam. Hence, there are reasons enough for such money shifting from Swiss to Vietnam.

And here, we, in India are once again shying away from facing the truth of corruption, bankruptcy of honesty in dealing with to national security national security and lack of political will.

Your cowardly silence on what's happening in Hyderabad

Kalki

You are scared. You don't want to confront the people who hate you. You don't want to call them terrorists. You are scared.

When will you show your courage? When, instead of MIM and the we-hate-India islamists, you will have someone from RSS make a speech or say naughty words. Then you will post facebook statuses, and gain popularity among your cowardly bretheren. 

For over a decade, you will hound the chief minister of india's most prosperous state and call him names. But you will not for a day condemn those you privately hold as villians of society. 

And then you wonder, why your voice is never heard. Why you are ignored. 

Maybe because the rest of the country, whom you hold as idiots, or communal, doesn't hold your views as prominent. They don't have the luxury of pseudo-facebook-courage. They keep quiet out of fear of life. When and if they finally protest, you will be ready with your keyboard and type out about how bad and communal they are. Then you will wish that you get 'likes'.

That's how sorry your life is. That's how sorry the life of all cowardly people is.

You wrote against Swamy, so why not protest against Owaisi?

Kalki

You threw fire on Subramanian Swamy when he pointed out a scientific fact about Muslims having Hindu ancestors [Link: How to wipe out Islamic terror]. Why don't you protest, make fun of or bite the traitor Owaisi who spoke of annihilating the race of Hindus? Do you have a spine?

Maybe it is beneath of you to talk about such people. Or maybe you are scared this might have repurcussions and in your weakness you are comfortable waiting for another man to do the protesting. What if Swamy raisies weapons against this man? Then would you again write about him in your blog posts because as a Hindu, he is an easy target?

Many of you do the same for Narendra Modi. I am surprised because despite everything, if you go to Gujarat you will only be welcomed and not hunted down for your views. Try going to Charminar in Hyderabad and telling them that you hate Owaisi. You will understand real secularism.

By the way, if you are living in denial, then let me remind you that 17 year olds wrote against Swamy's article and Harvard university asked him to leave his popular course he taught to much acclaim. And cases were filed against him by educated secular Hindus, and petitions made and all that.

Where are the same for Owaisi? Is secularism another word for cowardice?

Does no woman think that the protests are not classy?

Miss Ruth

Aren't the protest movements a slap on the face of men? I am not anti-men, but surey women would like it if men did the bashing and yelling for them? Or are they too proud to accept that?

Does no woman think that the protests are not so classy? Do they think that 'western women' are all street-fighters? Are they afraid to acknowledge that the sight of women tearing, fighting, yelling will leave not even a tiny mark on the psyche of rapists? 

Would it be bad to admit that women don't look good doing this? Is feminity on its way out of India? Or masculinity? Does nobody think of all this?

Dear Big Town-Indians, the world is bigger than you think

Kalki

Yes, there is the regional media that informs most of the people in the country. Then, the organisations and people you dislike are loved by these regional-dwelling, poor but actual-Indians. They don't really depend on you.

The city Indians like to talk of RSS and BJP as if the survival of these parties depends on the facebook status-updates of the 20 percent minority. That is, if they realise that they are the minority. Hundreds of email messages don't make the majority.

I don't think that women all over India will support the sudden sprout of feminism and underwear-activism. The media may try its best giving coverage to girls who flaunt middle fingers and bras at the rest of the country. The media may even succeed, but not so soon.

The problem lies in the mindset of thinking conservative women as oppressed. If a woman wears a sari, she must be sad. Unless the sari is worn on mondays and skirts on tuesdays. This is the stupid policy many modern-Indians are falling prey to. 

We are a conservative nation. And the protestors in smaller towns won't behave like the ones in Delhi. They won't show their middle finger or make banners stating that skirts are cool. No. Maybe they don't want to wear skirts. They like to listen to their elders. Maybe they will protest from 4-6 p.m. It is silly to see 'modern' Indians talk like they are the nations' leaders. It is the curse of facebook. It makes people seem bigger than they are. And facebook is up there with media outlets.

Delhi Rape and Feminism

Miss Ruth

There is a term for the brouhaha that has accompanied the gang-rape of the unfortunate Delhi girl. The term is prevalent in what Indians like to call the 'western society'. The term is feminazi-ism. 

While India celebrates this trend, it is already a failure in my place. So much so that many modern women are cursing the philosophy. While women need to be free and independent, they don't need man-hating movements that talk about punishing men and creating fear in young minds.

One of my fascinations with Hindu culture has been the place accorded to women within the masculine framework. But I realise that I am more serious than many of my Hindu friends and in a few months know more than all of them! So they are surprised to hear me speak about the ills of feminism. I surprise them further by asking them to just open the internet and broaden their knowledge-base!

I wonder if the poor girl who died was a feminist? I hope that the movement for womens' safety does not become a feminist movement. Look London!

Three Dangerous Indians of 2012

Kalki

These are Indians you can't learn from. They don't know India, they hate her, and they hate themselves. They exploit you and... let's just get on with them and finish this long-pending story. Do your own image search.

* Girish Karnad - Girish Karnad thinks that Indians don't read books. So he can get away with any nonsense he can spout. But wait, maybe you don't read?

As per Girish, us non-book-reading Indians are of two types: communal and secular. And to make sure he is in the limelight, he exploits that part of you; he asks you if you are a secular like him or a communal like a V S Naipaul.

As per Girish, nobel laureate Naipaul ... read it here.

Basically Naipaul is communal and non-secular. And because he is not fond of Muslim contribution to India, he doesn't know India.

Now, you, the readers, the Indians. If you have been brought up on school-books and NCERT nonsense, then you won't probably know Maharana Pratap but would sing praises of Akbar the Great. To you I say, rise, and read the Indian versions of texts. To understand how outdated the great playwright Karnad is, here is a christian foreigner on the issue. And please note that Vijayanagar stands as an important debate point for us Indians. Read it and find out what lies you have been fed till now. An exciting excerpt:

As is all too common in Nehruvian-secularist discourse, Dalrymple’s analysis of the role of Islam in India stands out by its superficiality. Whenever a Hindu temple or a Muslim festival is found to employ personnel belonging to the opposite religion, secular journalists go gaga and report on this victory of syncretism over religious orthodoxy. Secular historians including Dalrymple do likewise about religious cross-pollination in the past.

* MIM's Akbaruddin Owaisi - The terrorist. More dangerous than your Ajmal Kasab.

Owaisi and his supporters are a threat to Hindus and peace loving-Muslims. The problem with peace loving Muslims is that they won't come out publicly against him.

This man wants to finish of Hindus in India. He is a slap on democracy. And a slap on those Indians who still think Narendra Modi is a danger to India. A tight slap on your cowardly faces.

A tighter slap on media channels who won't cover this issue in detail for it is - indecent. And because such people should not be given publicity. Cowards.

Tomorrow if an RSS member sneezes, it would make front page news. And media would be thankful.

* Meena Kandasamy - She'd be very happy to be here. On any list. It's her dream to be abused. She is like a heroine. She want's the Nobel or something. If you search this website, you'd know that she is a feminist who can't identify the men in her life. Here's an excerpt from this article on The Young India, or rather read it entirely here.

Meena knows that Indians love drama and drama queens. And she is a a top-notch drama queen. The kinds who claim great suffering so as to get media attention. Watch out, she is the next Arundhati Roy in line. All the awards are hers.

Folks, there should be a list of great Indians as well. Soon. Till then, watch out and stay away from these 'apparent Indians'.
