Spinning must go on
BJP slams Antulay, but gets defensive on Karkare
You know, while I admire secular liberal establishment for its single minded propaganda against BJP, there is some regret too. If only they had shown only a fraction of enthusiasm they reserve for anti - BJP crusade, perhaps what happened in Mumbai could have been prevented.
Exploiting the tragedy
Most probably GB didn't mean it this way, but the introduction to his review of Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi is in incredibly bad taste. Now I am not taking away the right of atheists (who infest the blogosphere) to mock or ridicule God. Nor I do object to anyone criticizing any Shahrukh Khan starrer (though for the record, I found the movie paisa wasool, but then I don't exactly watch movie for layers of existential angst). Having said that it is very petty and unbecoming for using victims of Mumbai terror attacks as prop for flogging your pet peeve against "Big Guy in the sky", or against Yash Chopra. If someone finds faith and mush intolerable, then fine whatever, but please don't exploit tragedy to launch your contempt and disdain. There is something called perspective and simple decency, you know.

Owl on every branch
"We may need a separate inquiry to find out how his end came," Antulay said, adding, "Karkare found that there are non-Muslims involved in the acts terrorism during his investigations in some cases. Any person going to the roots of terror has always been the target," he said.
I eagerly look forward to appointment of Michael Moore as Secretary Of Diversity in Obama administration. In case you kids don't know Antulay was convicted for extortion.In his defense he was just being inartful. Our spin meisters in media would have done it with skill and expertise that was called for this kind of big lie operation.
PS. The title refers to this urdu couplet
Burbaad-e-gulistan Karane ko bus ek hi ullu kaafee tha !
Har Shaak Pe ullu baithey hai, Anjaam-e-gulistan kya hoga !!
PPS. Just for the record this (and the disgusting way media has played up Malegaon bomb case overall) is a border line case of abetting the enemy. Hell, if I were dictator, I would have hanged every major English Language journalist for this.
Dawn of communalism
Probably it is not a good time but I really have to ask this. Why secularists have this selective time line for communalism? Why just talk about 1992 and 2002 ? Why not 1989, or 1983 , or 1969.
The answer is they can not be blamed in straight forward way to Sangh Parivar. The biggest fraud that secularists have pulled over is that they care about Indian Muslims. They do not. The only thing that binds Secularists to Muslims is Hindu-phobia. Secularists are afflicted by a sense of self loathing (as most of them are in fact Hindus), ranging from latent to violent. This affliction is common to Indian Muslims who in their collective subconscious (if there is such a thing) are disdainful and resentful of kaffirs*. Secularists provide intellectual venom to the electoral dagger of believers towards the same cause, annihilation of Hinduism.
* Just to be clear this is reciprocated by Hindus against Mlecchas .

Discuss ...
1. Should we hang Narendra Modi to address Muslim grievances ?
2. If answer to 1. is yes, how long should we go on hanging members of Sangh hierarchy till Muslim grievances are addressed.
