Varun Gandhi is a scary bigot
A post at Pak Tea House and the sharp comments attracted some ire among the readers as to what was Varun Gandhi issue doing on a Pakistani blog-zine? Indeed, the question merits some deliberation. We in Pakistan are constantly being demonised by the Indian mainstream media as a ‘terrorist’ country and that we are a great threat to the ’secular’, shining India. Varun gandhi’s remarks as the saner elements of Indian media and commentators are saying only show that people have gotten away with such crap. The fissures in the secular Indian democracy get even more evident when such speeches are delivered.
Varun Gandhi’s remarks on Muslims, hate speech that goes beyond all measures of ‘hate speech’ concerns us as it only exposes us to brigades of hatred, communalism and violence across the border. If our jihadis or Islamists get inordinate attention then why should a bigoted idiot like the young Gandhi not worry us? Imagine if by a stroke of misfortune he comes to power surely we are all set to be chopped off as we – the Muslims – have ’scary’ names; and that Pakistan would be the next target once Narendara Modi-esque pogroms are completed against Indian Muslims.
The shining stars of India – the big business including the Tatas, Mittals and Ambanis – have cited Modi as their preferred choice for the next Prime Minister. Scary? Absolutely. Yes we don’t have a great record of protecting our minorities but then the tall claims of India and its leadership fall flat when Modi not only rules as a Chief Minister but is a choicest candidate for capitalists with billion dollar homes and ownerships of international cartels.
Indian Election Commission has taken note of Varun Gandhi’s criminal speech and hopefully they will proceed against him.
The truth is that state failure is evident in all countries of South Asia where constitutions, laws and rules are nothing but instruments in the hands of caste, communalism, militarism and jingoism of nation states.
Shame on Varun Gandhi and shame on his supporters who want to save him – the key defender being another hate-guru Bal Thackery.
He might not have expressed his thoughts in a strictly professional and dignified manner but I am sure many Indians share his thoughts. What do you expect from us? Do you think Indians will tie their hands back, keep quite even if people in the name of Islam go on a killing spree in our cities and keep smiling and pretending to be friends with Islamic fundamentalistic jihadis who want to wipe away our civilization and our way of life?
Well sorry ! we can’t do that and we won’t do that and we will do exactly what Varun Gandhi has said…We will eliminate the threat for our existence and we have a legitimate right to do so if our existence is threatened.
So, please live and let live and bury the medieval,cultist retrogressive,fundamentalistic elements your religion churns out from time to time namely Taliban,Al-quida and scores of “Islamic” terrorist jihadhi organisations. From our side we will bury our fundamentalists.
Thank you.
Raza bhai.
Just see the hate in the comment itself. The guy has put his name as ‘Chaitanya’, the name of a Saint, and it means Consciousness.
Unfortunately, it is the emerging middlge-class that has the highest share of lumpens. These are ‘educated’ but most active on internet where its easy to comment, as nobody is seeing your face when you are commenting.
Poor folk, rural class and the under-privilged are still sane. But this is the class where you find most hatred. I just don’t know why.
Currently I have 164 unmoderated extremely abusive comments for just one post on Varun Gandhi. It sometimes unsettles me terribly to see the amount of hate.
It is hatred that politicians like these thrive upon and hatred there is aplenty, as is evident from the fact that such politicians actually win elections. Mr. Modi, as you have mentioned, is a case in point.
I read another blog-post on the same subject at http://shobhaade.blogspot.com/2009/03/varun-gandhi-pamela-anderson-of.html .
thanks guys. your comments are so sensible compared to the comments at my other blog Pak Tea House where I originally posted this.
Adnan: this is what also baffles me – itnee nafrat??
Sidhuji – as always you are right?
By the way the Indian media has picked up this story:
http://www.dnaindia.com/report.asp?newsid=1241502
@ indscribe – agree with you. recently i was searching for an old song by Noor Jehan on youtube and i saw that after a few polite messages expressing thanks to the person who had uploaded the video, the debate moved to lata-noor-jehan comparison and pretty much an all out pak-india war. so you are absolutely correct about the internet being used by fringe elements which unfortunately dominates the net. but i also suspect that most of the extreme views are held not be people based in Pakistan or India but expats mainly in US and Europe…
Just look at the Christians. They have invested all the revenue generated from their missionary services to build world class schools, colleges and hospitals. They have forced the rich Christian nations to contribute for the development of the nation. Whereas, these Muslim leaders have branded the entire community as dole eaters and vote bank. They have NEVER demanded rich Gulf countries like Saudi to invest in India for Muslim schools and hospitals in return for the millions of dollars of revenue they contribute through their annual Haj pilgrimage. Reason?. They don’t want Muslim money in Hindu land. These shameless crooks have been eating doles and filling their deep pockets in the name of Minority commission, Wakf board managers, Haj subsidies etc and in return they have completely destroyed the dignity, self respect and self reliance capability of the Muslim masses.
My conclusion is, the self styled Indian Muslim leaders and cronies hand-picked by Congress have completely ruined our identity. If i cry for my constitutional rights are jeopardised, it is purely because of the collective failure of the corrupt Indian Muslim leadership. I blame them directly and they have completely let down ordinary Muslims like me from living a peaceful life in my nation. They have crippled the entire administrative machinery and Hindu public from supporting or upholding or delivering any justice for us. Now they are trying to join the crowd and act like innocent peace loving Muslims after seeing the hard earned success of few individual Muslims. It is wrong to say that Indian government took silent revenge on Indian Muslims because of Pakistan. Pakistan is NOT responsible for the failures of Indian Muslims. The enemy is within.
The emergence of Hindutva has exposed the ugly under belly of Muslim leaders and has kicked them out of their comfort zone. Babri Masjid demolition shook the Muslim masses from their deep slumber. Gujarat 2002, rubbed the salt on their wounds. Mr.Varun Gandhi has very good reasons to make such hate speeches and i congrtaulate him for boldly breaking out of the pseudo-secular crap created by his fore fathers. We ordinary Muslim masses are secretly happy to see the uneasiness on the face of these so called Muslim leaders and he should do more in the interest of the nation but without violence or communal riots.
Mr.Varun Gandhi, peace be upon you and God bless in your noble mission to liberate Muslims from this slavery.
We already knew that Varun Gandhi is slightly unbalanced. he get’s carried away in front of a crowd;he has a bit of a messianic complex, etc.
However, the current controversy will do him good politically. It positions him as a possible successor to Modi in a contest with his cousin, Rahul.
Young Indians, Muslims, Christians, Hindus or from whatever background- urban or rural- must reject Varun’s message. He is posing as a Mafia boss- a strong man- when he isn’t strong, he’s deluded.
This is dangerous.
When a cowardly little shit starts thinking he is an “Action-Man”, blood flows in the streets.
Don’t let this deeply troubled adolescent think he can get away with it.
The failures of so called Muslim ‘leaders’- whose main qualification was that they couldn’t lead anyone to the toilet let alone on to the road to progress- is scarcely to the point.
The tendency to hero worship mentally ill little shit-heads is a dangerous one. This squishy turd- Mr.Varun Gandhi- is already the victim of bad genes- his father was a rotten little sociopath- and really must be ostracised not idolized.
Indscribe,
You are absolutely spot on. It is amongst the educated and the affluent that you will find the maximum amount of hate.
They are absolutely blind in their hatred, and in this, they are not even driven by any love for their own religion, for their knowledge of it is nil. They believe they are being very pious by hating Muslims.
I think BJP is going to pay for all this non-sense. NSA for Arun is i think first time law was used properly. People like Varun should be behind the bars and not for few days but for entire life.
We had suffered because of these incesitive people, we should not let them get away with all this rubbish….
A Islamic Paki blogging about commumalism and RSS and VHP!! That’s rich. WE Hindus and Indians have more tolerance in our dingleberries then all of bigoted Islam and Porkistan put together.
The fact is that while the West and India have a premeditated stance towards Muslims,as if they are anti-humanist,anti-secularist race,nobody bothers to questions the divine judgements of these American and Indian politicians.Varun doesnt represent the whole,or even a quarter of India when he say that muslims have scary names but he surely,does represent the grieve and anger that Indian holds against pakistan.
A mere look at Arundhati Roy and Noam Chomsky’s books and articles reveal the great secularity of the West and India.Varun ought to read it.
I agree with the comments of Indiscribe and Rana. The main source of bigotry against Muslims in India comes from the educated middle class in India, and I also agree that this same middle class looks to the West for economic and political direction. Many so-called “educated” middle class Indian men and women (the journalists, managers/executives, engineers, doctors) are, again, highly apathetic to politics and insulated in their own version of “modernity” or more precisely, operating as functionaries of global capitalism. It is easy for them to turn into bigots because there is not even a modicum of social responsibility in the new market economy in India.
BJP in India, Taliban in Pakistan and the Republicans in the States sound like nothing more than religious/ racist bigots frothing at their mouths every time they open them. Seriously desperate fundamentalists trying to sound relevant even as they know that they have nothing to offer.
I simply want to tell you that I’m beginner to blogging and site-building and certainly enjoyed you’re page. Very likely I’m planning to bookmark your blog post . You definitely come with fantastic stories. Bless you for sharing your blog.
There are some interesting points in time in this article but I don’t know if I see all of them center to heart. There is some validity but I will take hold opinion until I look into it further. Good article , thanks and we want more! Added to FeedBurner as well
Kurye olarak hizmet veren kişiler, bulundukları lokasyondaki her adrese en kısa sürede ulaşma yolunu bilirler. Üstelik verilen bu görevi hava, trafik ve buna benzer diğer olumsuz şartlardan etkilenmeden yerine getirirler. Yani iş hayatı başta olmak üzere hayatın hemen her alanında önemli görevleri üstlenebilir ve başarıyla yerine getirebilirler. Özellikle büyük şehirlerdeki trafik kaosu ve adres konusundaki karmaşa göze alınırsa, kurye hizmetlerinden faydalanmanın bazı durumlarda zorunlu hale geleceği anlaşılabilir. Örneğin İstanbul’un bir noktasından diğer bir noktasına acil şekilde önemli bir evrak ulaştırmak gerektiğinde ya da hastanızın ihtiyacı olan ilacı acil ve güvenli bir şekilde ulaştırmak gerektiğinde, İstanbul moto kurye hizmetimizden faydalanarak sorununuza çözüm üretebilirsiniz.
I get pleasure from, lead to I discovered exactly what I used to be taking a look for. You have ended my 4 day long hunt! God Bless you man. Have a great day. Bye
Hi there. I discovered your website via Google while looking for a comparable matter, your website came up. It looks good. I have bookmarked it in my google bookmarks to visit then.
Hi there would you mind sharing which blog platform you’re using? I’m looking to start my own blog in the near future but I’m having a hard time deciding between BlogEngine/Wordpress/B2evolution and Drupal. The reason I ask is because your design and style seems different then most blogs and I’m looking for something completely unique. P.S My apologies for getting off-topic but I had to ask!
I have been surfing on-line greater than three hours nowadays, yet I by no means found any attention-grabbing article like yours. It is beautiful price enough for me. In my view, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content as you probably did, the internet shall be a lot more useful than ever before.
Wonderful work! This is the type of information that should be shared around the net. Shame on Google for not positioning this post higher! Come on over and visit my web site . Thanks =)
Generally I do not read article on blogs, however I would like to say that this write-up very forced me to try and do it! Your writing style has been surprised me. Thanks, very nice post.
