At a time when we need to address the real issue of fundamentalist behavior among Muslims these so called liberals/seculars fail us by playing double game.<br />I hope you know that there are thousands of people who have agenda to counter you or anyone who deviates from their "idea of India". We are grateful for your contribution to India and we will always be there to support you.<br />Thank you.Prashant Jhahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17067761347733270261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138082354348831474.post-5702983435323607362014-12-28T13:10:25.872-08:002014-12-28T13:10:25.872-08:00All glory to ElstAll glory to ElstBarry Nirmalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11824773967753340437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138082354348831474.post-27150675852775659152014-12-28T10:29:15.361-08:002014-12-28T10:29:15.361-08:00If Sita Ram Goel were to be alive and he and Koenr...If Sita Ram Goel were to be alive and he and Koenraad Elst were made to sit on the same panel on Hindutva,they would have ripped apart the 'secular' masks these BJP leaders has put on them to appear acceptable to the 'secular' media.varun reddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05591027339347868036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138082354348831474.post-55591602463731307002014-12-28T09:07:40.755-08:002014-12-28T09:07:40.755-08:00Obviously you understand that it is not easy to be...Obviously you understand that it is not easy to be politically incorrect and there is a price to be paid. I hope you will continue to speak the truth as you see it. Many, perhaps millions, believe as you do, and you give voice to this large group, that wants the world to recognize the cancer, and acknowledge it, and then only there is hope for some treatment. Right now the world is ignoring the problem as it did the rise of Hitler and many other monstrous ideas and people, and humanity had to pay a heavy price.Infinite Wisdomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14923286431416233011noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138082354348831474.post-9417410086771149862014-12-23T23:29:32.278-08:002014-12-23T23:29:32.278-08:00Sir, that Hindus have dismal performance record ...Sir, that Hindus have dismal performance record in conducting such events is a Truth beyond any doubt. They try very hard to be someone else. As you have rightly pointed out: Diplomacy, hearing their points of view is all good, but they don't choose the right forums to do so. One of the reasons for the great success of Western discourse, both rightist & liberal, is their amazing consistency in choosing the right people in the right forums, be it in educational or other public forums, to drive home their agenda. But all that Hindus ever want seem to be to hear good things about Hinduism from people who don't believe so and always act with the fear of hurting other religions at the cost of telling the truth. Its a highly defensive strategy and a very ineffective one which is not going to lead them anywhere.Jithuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00823454358870201567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6138082354348831474.post-16909463673969162502014-12-23T10:16:54.685-08:002014-12-23T10:16:54.685-08:00Sadanand Dhume is a secular aulad, who had sparred...Sadanand Dhume is a secular aulad, who had sparred with Rajiv Malhotra on twitter on several occasions. What he did seems to be his ploy : He insisted that you speak on some contentious points so that it creates "embarrassment" for BJP and you would be asked to leave the conference, that would in turn neutralize your efforts to insert some brain into BJP govt. by talking on relevant points. <br /><br />If the current BJP govt. can't understand who is their and enemy and who is their friend, then these guys are ought to be ousted sooner rather than latter.Mayur Punekarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09376777152702965449noreply@blogger.com
