Except for three attacks \u2013 where Hindu groups have been accused and arrested but not given any trial as yet \u2013 all of the rest have been by Islamic Jehadis.  Every one of them.<\/p>\n<p>Now, even the Home Minister comes and tells us the same thing \u2013 that it was an \u201cIndian Module\u201d which was involved in the Mumbai blasts.  Just \u201cmodule\u201d?  Not Islamic Jehadi module?  Ambiguous huh?  Maybe he is trying not to mention the community so as not to \u201churt their feelings\u201d.  Well, that doesn\u2019t happen all the time with him.  For he suddenly becomes pretty specific when he starts targeting Hindu groups \u2013 of Saffron and Sangh groups.  Now, he is very specific and very clear.<br>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/wp.patheos.com.S3.amazonaws.com\/blogs\/sites\/356\/Digvijay-.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\" decorated-link\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wp.patheos.com.S3.amazonaws.com\/blogs\/sites\/356\/Digvijay-.jpg\" border=\"0\"><\/a><br>\nSo is Digvijay Singh.  In fact Digvijay is pretty sure all the time that its the RSS (Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh) that is responsible for all the attacks, even the 26\/11 \u2013 despite the fact that the Government headed by the part he heads is busy pushing Pakistan to take up the responsibility based on REAL EVIDENCE!<\/p>\n<p>Now, 3 out of several dozen terror attacks is what the \u201cRight Wing Hindus\u201d are accused of by the Intelligence.  Although given how Swami Aseemananda was handled \u2013 coercing his testimony and forcibly making him sign papers \u2013 kind of puts those proceedings in question as well. <\/p>\n<p>Even if one assumes that those attacks were the handiwork of Hindus \u2013 wouldn\u2019t it make COMPLETE SENSE as to why these attacks WERE done?  For all the attacks that we know of that were orchestrated by the Islamic Jehadi groups \u2013 name ONE.. just ONE \u2013 person who has been brought to justice?  Just one would be good enough.  Even Ajmal Kasab \u2013 who was video recorded firing at everyone on the railway platform \u2013 is still being handled with kid gloves!  Pray, what evidence do we need against him??<\/p>\n<p>If that isn\u2019t enough, DIgvijay Singh \u2013 goes around suggesting that 26\/11 was the conspiracy of RSS??  Really??<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, however, Sadhvi Pragya has been in custody since 2009.  And no trial has begun on her.  According to several eye witness accounts \u2013 she is being drugged and kept in shabby conditions.  A complete contrast with Ajmal Kasab! Swami Aseemananda \u2013 the other accused for the Malegaon, Mecca Masjid and Samjhauta Express blasts \u2013 has said that he wasn\u2019t even given a lawyer to represent him and was forced to give confession that he was behind the blasts.  Ajmal Kasab, a Pakistani, has a lawyer.  But Aseemananda doesn\u2019t!<\/p>\n<p>Do you see the difference in standards?<\/p>\n<p>If the Government of the day is perceived to be not just negligent but actually favoring the Islamic Jehadi terrorists and specifically the ones coming out of Pakistan, then there is indeed a case for motivation amongst some Hindus \u2013 who feel betrayed to take the gauntlet upon themselves to bring about \u201cjustice\u201d.  That may explain the blasts in Muslim dominated area of Malegaon, which was said to have housed some of the accused of another terrorist attack and Samjhauta Express, which was carrying Pakistanis back.<\/p>\n<p>Now, I am not advocating that citizens take up law in their hands.  But if the law and executive is so blatantly biased that it can best be perceived as betraying the nation in open daylight, then it shouldn\u2019t come as a surprise is some people actually go off the cliff and take arms up.<\/p>\n<p>To me \u2013 although, based on the lack of evidence and proceedings yet \u2013 I don\u2019t agree with accusations on Aseemananda and Sadhvi Pragya \u2013 but even if they indeed were involved, that would be an indictment of the Government that is not doing its job in taking the REAL Terror threat to task \u2013 aka Islamic Jehadis \u2013 as opposed to an indictment of the Hindu nationalists.<\/p>\n<p>Hindu Nationalists are doing what they think is in best interest of their country.  That their methods sometime may not be best can be debated.  But, when the situation is extraordinary, then sometimes people resort to extra-ordinary actions.<\/p>\n<p>We need to indict and bring to justice ALL \u2013 repeat ALL \u2013 the terrorists who were involved in terror crimes since 2001.  PERIOD!  Let\u2019s start from there.  And then go ahead.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Home minister may please save us from this cliched nonsense that insults our collective intelligence!<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every year several terrorist attacks happen in India &#8211; like the Mumbai blasts last month.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1517,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33,57,76],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10906","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-india","category-politics","category-terrorism"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.1 -
