Malegaon to Mangalore

An unintended consequence of the 26/11 attacks in Mumbai was the dismantling of the contrived moral equivalence drawn between jihadi terrorism and Hindu extremism. The scale of the carnage and the professional ruthlessness of the attackers brought home the absurdity of putting a global network ....Read more

Is this modern india?By: Shrinivas Deo. | Saturday , 31 Jan '09 8:53:02 AM Reply | Forward Mr. DasGupta must be appluaded for his blunt but true views about the analysis of general

Malegaon blastsBy: Sanjiv | Thursday , 29 Jan '09 8:34:28 AM Reply | Forward "Malegaon blasts were an offshoot of a diabolical scheme that went awry and was disowned" - Will Mr. Dasgupta illucidate this whisper? Are we looking out for shades of 'Reichstag' fire arranged through some loonies but pinned down on Communists?

Naveed's fallacies!By: xxx | Thursday , 29 Jan '09 8:13:29 AM Reply | Forward It is funny that Hindus are so indignant of having their "rights infringed on." Most do not drink anyway, why are you harping on this - you should be more concerned about the illegal immigrants and terrorists within the nation. Everyone yells at Hindu groups who are trying to preserve values -albeit in an incorrect manner - while nearly a million Hindus are slaughtered and thrown out in Kashmir. This is the result of our Saudi Muslim and Syrian/US-Christian controlled media, which people stupidly believe. Visit nationalinterest[dot]in to debate these issues which are hidden under the rug in "unbiased, secular" Indian media."Now, since Indian muslims are more opened to show patriotism and ready to confront with Islamic terrorsim, . . self appointed custodians of the Indian culture." Muslims like Naveed ignore that Hindu culture, predating 4000 years, was nearly eradicated when Muslims entered the area - who is defending Hindus?! only thing Muslims act on is converting the kaafirs!

islamic terrorismBy: dr.chandra shekar | Thursday , 29 Jan '09 2:15:36 AM Reply | Forward what nonsical garbage is this guy talking. why doesn't he live in pakistan as a hindu with his hindu name and then talk about tolerance. islamic terrorism and fascism started the day the muslims set foot in india many hundred yers ago. if anyone needs confirmation go to qutub minar and see the destruction caused by these early barbaric muslim invaders/ marauders. islamic terrorism did not start with taliban or al qaeda. also why does he call these people in mangalore hindus when the muslims terrorists commit barbaric acts of destruction and killing the popular phrase is that they are not muslims. this despite the fact that the perpetrators claim to commit their atrocities in the name of islam.

History is the best indicator of present of futureBy: vinod | Wednesday , 28 Jan '09 22:29:22 PM Reply | Forward Historical and statistical analysis tells us the real cause of condition of other ethinic/religious groups in an Islamic society of all times.We will never want that to happen in india again in name of freedom and cultural/religious evolution.If we are really concerned to retain our territorial integrity in present and in future we will have to certainly address some issues of demographical changes happening in many part of countries which may become real future threat to our cultural diversity.To remove the perceived threat among majorities from minorities,deep love for india and its culture needs to developed in muslim brothers' hearts while keeping them away from religious bigotrism like madarassa education or any special religious favour.They should also be educated about shared culture of our ancestors to help them develop a sense of brotherhood.

PUBS AND LIQUOR BUSINESS ARE THE MONEY SPINNERS FOR THE PARTIESBy: n.krishna | Wednesday , 28 Jan '09 20:56:58 PM Reply | Forward Home Minister of Karnataka V.S. Acharaya told reporters that the attackers appeared to be extortionists. These are criminal out fits to make money like every other political party in India. Look at Samajvadi party or BSP or communist party or Siva Sena or cogress party and all are extorting money from liquor dealers in every city in India. Some political parties like congress have refined this extortion by allowing the liquor manufacturers to carryout part of the business illegally. In one bottle of beer is through the government system with proper taxes, nine boltless are routed outside the government system. This generates large amount of black money, and that is why when PV Narasimharao paid the money to the MPs it came from the Southern states. The particular Sena ? man appears to be a criminal with more than 40 cases against him.

How about the sangh parivaar..By: Suresh | Wednesday , 28 Jan '09 20:53:57 PM Reply | Forward So Mr.Swapan Dasgupta is trying to say that those involved in Malegaon and Mangalore are bad and the groups like Bajrang Dal that killed more people than all the Jihadis killed is good and truly nationalist (Remember the carnage in Gujarath and Orissa, Mr.Swapan?). The entire Sangh outfits are a curse to the nation.

TIME IS RUNNING OUR FOR THE GOVT TO ACTBy: n.krishna | Wednesday , 28 Jan '09 20:29:15 PM Reply | Forward DONT UNDERESTIMATE HINDUS. 1857 IN WHICH EVERY CHRISTIAN WAS KILLED IN DELHI CAN REPEAT AGAIN. PUBLIC IS VERY UPSET WITH DAILY MUSLIM AND CHRISTIAN TERRORISM THROUGHOUT INDIA. CHRISTIAN MISSIONARIES ARE ATTACKING US AT OUR OWN HOME. WHEN THE BREAK POINT COMES, THE RETALIATION WILL BE SWIFT AND HORRIBLE AND THERE WILL BE NO LEADERS FOR THESE RETALIATION. HISTORY SHOWS THAT HINDUS HAVE RESISTED ISLAMIC INVASION FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS. PARTITION OF 1947 HAS SHOWN THAT NONE CAN CONTORL VIOLENCE ONCE IT STARTS AND THE LOOSERS WILL THE MUSLISMS AND CHRISTIANS IN INDIA. LIKE IN ISRAEL THE CHRISTIANS SHOULD CALL IT A DAY AND STOP THE HOUSE TO HOUSE CONVERSION. IF ANOTHER TERRORIST ATTACK OCCURS FROM PAKISTAN LIKE IN MUMBAI, THE PUBLIC WILLTAKE OVER. THERE WONT BE ANY LEADERS. THE YOUNG GENERATION IS VERY UPSET AFTER THE 26/11. BOYS AT EVERY JUNCTION WILL BE LEADING THE ATTACK AGAINST THE ESTABLISHMENT.

Telgi BuriedBy: Deepak | Wednesday , 28 Jan '09 16:36:12 PM Reply | Forward Does anyone remember Telgi?? or is the cas closed and forgotten??

Gestapo policiesBy: Nautankee | Wednesday , 28 Jan '09 15:40:10 PM Reply | Forward Mr.Swapan Dasgupta has correctly highlighted these gestapo like organisations whose leaders are still in the II World War TraUma, and that is perhaps the reason why their Hitler like Jügend still roam the streets of India in their khakhi chaddi's. These sorts are a blot on our Hindu Dharma which is normally known as one of the most tolerant Dharma. Our Hinduism is loved all over the world, but these BJP and VHP likes have spoiled our Hindu image with their gestapo like deeds. We Hindu's are now days are also facing problems, because some people from the international community believe that we too are al-qaida or hitler like facists.
