On 16th May 2014 Indian election results exploded on the world community by giving the RSS inspired political party BJP, Bharatiya janta Party (Indian People's Party) an unprecedented majority. As a result we today have a Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, who was the Chief Minister of the state of Gujrat when we saw the most horrible massacre of Muslims in India in recent times.
After becoming the Prime Minister he did once say something about inclusive development.
This did not do much to assuage Muslim sentiments but it was sufficient for US to revoke the visa ban on him.
And then slowly US has warmed upto him.
The Prime Minister has been conducting a very extensive world tour.
The intelligentsia in India is busy criticizing these too frequent foreign visits.
They are assuming that he is having a ball.
That is far from the truth.
He is merely assessing the world mood.
So that when he gets down to work then he'll know the potential reaction and be prepared in advance to deal with the external pressures.
RSS prepared these people in nitety years and we are not face to face with fools but cool calculators.
Apologies for not offering a rosy picture. I wish I am proved to be terribly wrong.
The west got exhausted after fighting in Afghanistan.
Though we have heard of French bombing in Mali and US bombing on ISIS but there are a few things that no one can miss.
That the western strategy in the Muslim world, Gulf in particular, is besieged by boots on the ground problem.
They simply do not have people who are ready to be killed for their cause in the middle east in particular and Muslim world in general.
They did find meagre numbers in Kurdish people.
The strange thing is that these Kurdish fighters whom the west is promoting as flag bearers of western values are actually leftist in ideology.
Anything that works in their favour is acceptable as long it is not Islamic or Muslim.
Also the actual results are not decisively in favour of the western desires and goals.
For example the latest news says that the Islamic State is down because three of its top leaders were killed in US bombing and Kurdish Peshmerg have taken back two locations from the Islamic State.
But there is also the news of the Islamic State selling Christian artifacts to raise money as well as releasing photos of amputation.
And in view of the fact that the west has imposed inprecedented media blockage on the news related to the Islamic State will only leave the world at large in a state of disbelief about the actual ground reality.
How much will it work in favour of western interests? This is an open question.
What are its implications for Islam and Muslims? Again an open question.
Freedom of expression as well as free media are the concepts that are kosher as long as they serve the western interests.
Others will have share in it only if the west sees it fit to share the gains.
And the west is not altruistic - to say the least.
Just finished watching above mentioned Al-Jazeera documentary.
(1) From YouTube comments this sinner came to know that Arabic and English versions of Al-Jazeera present opposite views.
(2) Al-Jazeera English is near complete western channel.
(3) Above documentary asserts that Afghanistan faces a danger from an unsuspected quarter - Madaaris. (Yawn). In particular the chain of Madarsas named Ashraf-ul-Madaaris.
(4) Luckily there are moderate religios Muslim families as well as modern Muslim women in Afghanistan who will ultimately save Afghan society from the clutches of the anachronous Mullas in spite of latter resolving to win the fight.
A Companion (RA) waited till Victory of Makkah before coming to Islam. Beloved Prophet (PBUH) told him that it is not the same as it would have been if you had come to Islam before the victory.
Today Islam and Muslims are in most difficult situation in history. Now is the time to be enlisted in favour of Islam.
A 35-year-old man, identified as Desh Raj, was arrested by the Uttar Pradesh Police on Monday for allegedly desecrating two temples last week by leaving buffalo carcasses inside and writing hate messages on the wall. His aim, he told police, was to ensure that “koi masjid na rahe, sirf mandir rahe (no mosques should remain, only temples should remain)”.
He also confessed during interrogation that he had left a dog’s carcass inside a mosque last week to fuel communal hatred.
According to the police, Raj was unemployed and spent most of his time praying and reading books on astronomy. “We have arrested him and are interrogating him. He was arrested from Parsauli village after we received information about his involvement in desecration of temples. His family claims he has a mental disorder; we will will check on that later,” Muzaffarnagar ASP Alok Priyadarshi said.
On December 15, parts of a buffalo carcass were found on the premises of a temple in Parsauli. Also inscribed on the temple wall was an inflammatory message referring to the Islamic State. On December 20, parts of a buffalo carcass were found inside another temple in the area, and an idol of ‘Nandi’ was reportedly found missing. After news spread, locals gathered outside the temple and prevented police from trying to remove the carcass.
Security had to be beefed up after the second incident. “Parsauli has an equal share of Hindus and Muslims. But next to the village is Jhola, where most of the displaced Muslims from Fugana areas were given land to settle down after the Muzaffarnagar riots,” said a senior police officer.
Sources said this change in demographic upset Desh Raj. “We have recovered a number of maps that he drew on which he marked out mosques and temples. He said he put the meat in temples because he wanted to spread hatred. He told us he wanted to make sure that ‘koi masjid na rahe, sirf mandir rahe’,” said an officer.
The police said that during interrogation he also admitted that he had left a dog’s carcass inside a mosque in the village. “He admitted that he killed the dog and then tied it up and left it hanging in the mosque. We have confirmed this with the imam of the mosque. After they found the dog, they hurriedly removed the carcass because they didn’t want more violence,” said the officer.
The police said that since both incidents of desecration took place in the same village, chances were that the culprit would be from the village as well. “We started asking around and eventually people said that he was a possible suspect. We put him on surveillance and eventually arrested him,” said the officer.
The UP unit of the Shiv Sena had threatened to hold a Hindu mahapanchayat in the district if the culprit was not caught.
Palestine is at the core of the Islam and West conflict.
West is slowly waking up to the seriousness of the problem.
Even if it was because of the merciless onslaught of Israel against Gaza's helpless population.
So as a result many countries the world over have supported Palestine by passing resolutions in their respective parliamemnts.
This has finally got Israel worried.
It is doing what it does best - insighting European countries aginst Islam and Muslims.
But may be time is running out for its trickery that is more than half a century old.
Here is a hard hitting Mill Gazette article by a palestinian journalist.
The current political and military discourse is dominated by one issue - the Islamic State.
The west has near complete control over the discourse.
At the moment they are implementing total black out on that issue.
This may sound as a contradiction but it is true in spite of sounding incredible.
And unfortunately there is a bad news in it for Muslims.
Either they stand up for their rights or they get washed out in the din of war.
The western powers in spite of using politically correct terminology are very anti-Islamic.
They, for example, continually make fun of Jannah and houris.
No one will take care of rights of Muslims if Muslims do not stand up for themselves.
That is the stark reality of life.
Who will speak for Islam and Muslims and how is an open question but to think that the west will automatically take care of Muslims is a silly sentiment - nothing to speak for Islam.
This sinner is always surprised at the rights versus duties dichotomy, particularly amongst us Muslims.
When brothers come to internet in general and discussion fora in particular they assert all rights and conveniently forget to acknowledge duties. They are not thankful too.
And the blessing is taken away if we are not thankful.
West is quite gung ho about freedom of speech.
This sinner used to find it strange.
Every freedom comes with responsibility.
And no one likes responsibility so freedom has some deceptive clause attached with it.
Only recently western dichotomy about it coming to the fore.
I suppose they will take some time to realize their mistake.
At the moment they are busy implementing the selective freedom of speech agenda.
So, for example, the Independent comes out with the news that Sir Winston Churchill toyed with the idea of Islam - knowingly or unknowingly, consciously or unconsciously, and converting to Islam.
But Jihad Watch asks the question why is the Independent publicizing it now.
Why not?
What happened to freedom of speech.
Well we know what happened.
Freedom of speech is good as long as it favours the west.
Rest of the time it is bad.
This sinner also wants something. Fresh ideas to recover the social, cultural, business, economic, industrial, financial, political and military space of Muslims that has been usurped by others.
Their worry is still confined to Iraq and Syria and the Islamic State, as per west's own reports, is on the retreat.
My concerns are very much in my own home. For us Muslims the problem is present and here.
Islamic State for the west is quite far - apart from the heinous events in which a few western people were killed in a repugnant manner. Many more Muslims are getting killed because of above kind of encroachment by the western society.
This cannot be undone and I am sure it will be greatly appreciated.
