“We
will never forget! We will never forget!” screamed Arnab Goswami and the scroll on TimesNow during the 26/11 attacks.
It didn’t take even a year for TOI to forget and start the crappy “Aman Ki
Asha” campaign with Pak newspaper The Dawn. While Arnab screams at everything
else, he feels shy in asking how much money TOI made from it and who paid that
money. It appears that many alleged journalists are practically jobless now and
are finding their passion elsewhere to keep themselves relevant. Politicians
going to Pakistan to appease Muslims back home is not new but it’s the
phenomenon of media crooks engaging in covert activities that should be
worrying us. Earlier, some of these media folks were guests of Ghulam Nabi Fai
who wanted to free Kashmir and was funded by ISI. Prominent among his guests
was India’s second biggest Intellectual Moron (IM) Dileep Padgaonkar. This worthless editor is a paid junkie who is
into everything but journalism.
How we
respond to tragedies is an indicator of a nation’s policy on war and peace. A
day after the heads of two of our jawans were chopped off at the LOC, Shashi Tharoor was moderating a debate
between journalists of India and Pakistan. These are meaningless exercises by
our elites. I call them Candle light sinners. Just as TOI shamelessly forgot the dead from 26/11 our media
folks along with some politicians have scant respect for the dead. There can NEVER be peace with Pakistan.
Only the world’s greatest morons would believe that is possible. That country’s
way of life is not cut out for peace with India. The only option is to avert
wars, avert terror attacks and maintain a constant vigil to protect our
borders. And what is there to discuss and negotiate with Pakistan? Other than
onions I doubt there is anything we can get from Pakistan. Err… Maybe item
girls for Bollywood or lousy singers and actors who can’t make money on their
own soil. This is why Ved Pratap Vaidik’s
trip to Pakistan and his meeting with terror-chief Hafiz Saeed is nothing short
of a sinister act.
In
January 2013 when our jawans were killed at LOC Hafiz reportedly announced a reward of 5 lakhs for every Indian
soldier’s head. Vaidik is a bumbling moron and that’s a given. But his
extended enthusiasm in acting like he was Allah’s diplomat in meeting Hafiz and
trying to understand that “innocent” soul is the kind of stupidity that our
senior journos are blessed with. While Vaidik deserves condemnation why should
we pick on that one idiot alone? Along with him there were other useful idiots
of Pakistan who went on a joyride. Among them were Barkha Dutt (Pakistan’s
permanent fool in India), Dileep Padgaonkar (India’s 2 nd biggest
IM), a non-Indian like Sidharth Varadabhai and politicians whose careers have
ended like Manishankar Aiyar, Salman Khurshid and Sudheendra Kulkarni. All of
these people are worthless in India and supposedly make a “self-styled” bunch
of peace-brokers in what they fashionably call “Track-2 diplomacy”. Who authorised these morons for any
track-diplomacy? Nobody! What lures them to such activities? That is a question
no one is asking. What is the motivation for such deliberate misadventure? Obviously,
since the election loss by Congress, most of their members and puppets have
nothing to do but attempt to thwart the new govt in international diplomacy.
Their Pak junket is one such meaningless exercise.
Vaidik,
in particular, is hardly a practicing journalist and cannot claim he met Hafiz
as part of a journalistic exercise. So it has been handy for the media and the
Congress to label him a BJP tout who met Hafiz under authority of the BJP govt.
Why would any govt authorise this joker to meet Hafiz? And even if they did,
would any govt acknowledge it? It would be foolish to imagine that Hafiz is an
easy person to meet. He’s a guy who would be looking over his shoulders all the
time. While there is no evidence, it is not far-fetched to assume that his
meeting with Hafiz would have been facilitated by one of the crooks in the gang
that went to Pakistan on a joyride. Some of these people have had a backdoor
channel with the Pak media and establishment for a long time. Hamid Mir, a Pak
journalist, had interviewed Osama Bin Laden even when Laden was an
internationally wanted man. So it is not wrong to assume that the Pak media
circuit and their establishment have access to all the wanted individuals. Some
of the known crooks in the gang of 15 certainly do have deep connections with
this circuit and establishment.
The
master-chef who organised the joyride for the gang of 15 is none other than Manishankar Aiyar. He is a board member
of the Regional Peace Initiative
which organised the junket. It is needless to add that any such outfit
operating in Pak would obviously be filled with their former army heads and ISI
operatives. As in the case with Fai, the ISI is good at identifying the most
useful Pak idiots in India to serve their purposes. The choice of MSAiyar as one
of the board members and through him the choice of other members of the gang of
15 is a good indicator on the people India should keep a close watch on. Here’s
a montage of the worthless exercise which does nothing but fatten the flesh of
this gang and indulge their greed for luxuries and goodies.
Why do
these guys suddenly want a peace initiative with a junket? Obviously, the new
govt in Delhi is not one to the liking of Congress or the Pak establishment. A
gathering of all the useful idiots from India for the Pak establishment, army
and the ISI is what the doctor ordered to throw a spanner in the works. Vaidik
comes across as a stupid moron but I have no doubt who the conduits are. Do
you? Permanent Pak friends like Barkha, Varadabhai, MS Aiyar all must have had
a hand in what transpired. That Vaidik met Hafiz is public now. MS Aiyar also
appeared on a show in Pakistan with Hafiz in February 2012. It’s all a nice
family. There are people who want the govt in Delhi to have lots of thorns in
their flesh. We can trust Barkha, Padgaonkar, Aiyar, Khurshid, Zoya Hassan to
provide those thorns.
One
would like to imagine someday peace with Pakistan is possible although that is
never going to happen. Pakistan doesn’t want peace. But there are people in
India who want to encash this situation to spruce up their lifestyle. They love
that this cold conflict will always be there else their “Aman Ki Asha”
money-churning machine will die. The ISI knows who these useful idiots are. The
gang of 15 that Manishankar Aiyar led to Pakistan knows that too. Everyone has
ranted about Vaidik’s meeting with Hafiz, except the gang of 15 that went with
him. You and I can ponder but they are richer for their effort. How they get
funded and how their travels happen will offer the answers to such episodes.
Pakistan is a goldmine for some of these useful idiots. Here’s what the C5M
rants about press freedom:
There
is press freedom in India but it has always been misused. Most of the people
pretending to be journalists have often turned out to be political brokers. How
does one explain a bunch of journos constantly involved in political activities
like Barkha, Padgaonkar, Varadabhai, Vaidik & Co. do? It just so happens
that Vaidik was exposed in his meeting with Hafiz. The others are just as shady
in their dealings and we are yet to know the people they meet and the deals
they make. The Ghulam Nabi Fai episode was an indicator of what the sco called
journos are up to. Now that the new govt has rendered most of the media celebs
useless they are likely to be more useful idiots for Pakistan.
GoI can send a firm message by prosecuting Vaidik for sedition. That will force accountability on every Indian as to the kind of seminars & meetings they participate & the personalities they indulge.
ReplyDeleteSir Ravinarji, I have been waiting for a post from you the last three days, have been comming back to yourpost and give us insights, I did some research on the internet and found that vidik joker was not the only guy, and on rediff I checked khurshid was supporting vidik and opposing the media bashing.
Deletearnab was so bad and not allowing BJP reps to even talk, he was going on and on. may be he got a feedback and had another show about junkets and got sudheendra kulkarni and that AAP, JNU professor and taken to task.
But the two days prior he was asking Subramanian Swamy what action the govt is taking, without even realizing this would have been preplanned, not BJP got gave them visas and all that, may be congress was involved.
Let me also tell you when BRICS summit was hapenning can you imagine the timing the whole media was only on vaidik and BJP RSS bashing, even rahul the sleeping beauty says it is RSS (without even understanding the motto of RSS, which says AKHAND BHARAT).
not a single talk show on the BRICS and how its beneficial or other wise to India. Sad Sad!
Delete"If the counsel of the peaceniks had been followed, Kuwait would today be the nineteenth province of Iraq. Bosnia would be a trampled and cleansed province of Greater Serbia, Kosovo would have been emptied of most of its inhabitants, and the Taliban would still be in power in Afghanistan. Yet nothing seems to disturb the contented air of moral superiority of those that intone the "peace movement"
ReplyDelete--Christopher Hitchens
I was watching burkha dutt the presstitute moron and all that so overwhelmed because she was interviewing Clinton ( white guy). I was shocked to hear about kargil war, she said people come to you for resolution. Damn such an antinational person in the guise of journalism. Clinton himself said why will we come in you both come in, but she says you are kind of boss to solve issues, such a pathetic situation.
ReplyDeleteI also was shocked like a typical commie she was asking for details about gaza hits and was asking like whato do you think you know Israel is bombing them, tat came the reply from Clintion, when you fire thousands of rockets by hamas into Israel they will just wait?
Sir Ravinarji, from your way I am also trying to check the info and trying to put forth information I am seeing.
Thank you Ravinarji for the service you do.
Other state MP's and MLA's has something which they can learn from Tamil Nadu leaders whom to consider as friends and whom to consider as enemy no: - 1.
ReplyDeleteJust when they are in opposition they criticize Pakistan for killing of our Jawans when they come to power they just forgive them as if nothing happened.
Instead of taking action against Vaidik and Fai's Fans club Govt is indulging in MSM debates.
A Spade is always a Spade ... but waits for someone like you to call it a Spade. Fabulous.
ReplyDeleteFantastic analysis. This media -party nexus is becoming anti-national is unimaginable in many democratic countries. Hypocrisies of many 'alleged' journos out in open now the holy clothes are off.Superb by Ravinar ji. Between, is there any hidden reason behind the over-blown emphasis on Timesnow coverage to Vaidik but ignoring holy cows like BD, SK,moronaiyer etc? hammam ?
ReplyDeleteIt was in the news yesterday that Indreshkumar, a senior RSS functionary, supported Vaidik and his visit. A lifetime RSS supporter like me is pained so is the news false or Indreshkumar is right or there is something beyond my understanding? I don't want to blame Indreshkumar in a hurry so I am baffled. What is happening?
ReplyDeleteThere is no legal ground to prosecute him. He can claim journalistic immunity. And then, there are many journalists, so called experts-commentators , politicians who have been misusing their privileges for decades now ( remember Kuldip Nayyar ???? ) - so will the Govt prosecute them all ???
Deletethere have been many journalists who have interviewed terrorists in the past, veerappan, prabhakaran, osama et al. i dont think there is anything worng in that. please correct me if i am mistaken.
Deletethis was done under the guise of peace talks is the problem. isnt it?
Here is what i perceive after the whole episode .
ReplyDeleteCongress used an idiot who has no association with BJP to beat them and the Government while its their own champions who organized the whole event.
Forget media perception and management, the morons in the BJP cant sell candy to a school kid. Sigh.............
The Paki conspirators and establishment must be having a hearty laugh at the naivity of our secular gangs.Arnab generally pre empts any junkets by state ministers.But these junkets have been going on perhaps for ages and none ever comes to public domain thanks to the paid media.I wonder why no one in the debate asked Times now for its selective activism.Hats off to Paki handlers, this is the best team they can select from India for the success of all their conspiracies.
ReplyDeletePer me the biggest of useful idiots ( albeit inadvertently) damning Indian interests and hurting the image of Narendra Modi are the bumbling jokers of BJP especially the spokespersons and ministers of this Govt.
ReplyDeletethe very fact that such events can still get blown out of proportion and inane issues continue to get used to criticize Govt ( despite the govt having done well ) is reflective of inability of BJP govt to sieze initiative and capitalize on its path breaking Victory in election's.
sometimes sheer incompetence can be more damaging than even corruption per se !!!!
Thanks Ravinar...I have been waiting for this article too like some others who have commented.
ReplyDeleteOne of the good things that happened with Modi rising in Indian politics, is that, it's cool to be Indian and Hindu again. There is a certain confidence rising in the people who are Indian at heart. I think that scared the daylights out of all the sickulars and anti-nationals. They thrive on the sad, depressed and diffident junta who just feels guilty for being Hindu, being Indian, being successful, being rich, being majority...what have you. And now they have to deal with people who are proud of who they are...you can sense the panic!
One thing I don't understand is this greatness attached to being the under-dog. Why is it noble to be the under-dog? I would never support an under-dog unless it's in his fight to become the top-dog. I find it absurd that people side with Palestinians just because they are "under-dogs" and Israel is mighty. Israel's neighbour, should try and learn from them...how to conserve water, innovate in agriculture, innovate in technology and become a world leaders. Next...if they are ill-prepared to defend their citizens, they should not attack their very very powerful neighbour!
How I wish the whole presstitute brigade, big-bindi brigade, sickular brigade, IM brigade and other sundry disasters could just be rounded up like stray dogs and locked away for good...alas good things take time...but there is hope!
How could be forget this fuddu AAKAR patel,wearing grey suit sitting in the middle. saale anti-nationals.
ReplyDeleteRavi. My apologies. It is not Regional Peace Intiative, but Regional PI** Initiative, where the participants can have a PI** or two and then go for more PI**. I sincerely hope sons and daughters of Presstitutes drown in their own PI* sooner than later. Useless pr*** Pappu can also join them.
ReplyDeleteThank you RavinaarJi for your yet another fabulous article. I sincerely hope that NaMo government would take some concrete action against this idiot Mr. Vaidik so that it will act as a deterrent for the anti nationals in future. If no action is taken then I will think that there is no difference between UPA and this Modi led NDA government except rhetoric. It will demoralize me, so also many others Modi Supporters.
ReplyDeleteSubramanian swamy has thrown a challenge ( in aap ki adalat , to be aired tomorrow ), that in case he is appointed as a special public prosecutor - he will get back black money in two months or else is willing to face any prosecution including giving up politics'.
ReplyDeleteis narendra modi willing to take up the gauntlet ????
the answer is obvious . People who occupy the pm office in delhi do take u turns and become Moderates and statesmen. It is also possible that the fake gandhis or congress is blackmailing BJP or some of its leaders . Disappointing.
( dr swamy also says that he had already made that proposal but could not make much headway). Blind supporters of Modi - now do not badmouth Dr swamy or question his credibility. The ball is in narendra modi court !!!!
Ravinar, Expected an article of yours and it was quite on the mark.
ReplyDeletePrimarily, I believe this is simply a conspiracy hatched by the so called anti-national elements of a section of media with their assorted politicians. There are lot of people in India who lack identity crisis (young or old) and are willing to do anything to get their few minutes of fame. These people were especially lost jobs and relevance both in BJP and Congress after polls. These rascals (some media crooks and politicians) simply picked a couple of them from BJP who were disenfrachised thats all.
Remember sudheedra kulkarni, the leftist moron under Advani.
2. The reason is simple, Congress knows that the biggest asset of BJP and RSS is its nationalist ideology. People may blame BJP as fascist, communal and what ever it may be, but they will never question its nationalistic credentials unlike the Congress. Congress simply needs to hit this point hard and raise doubts among the middle classes about their nationalism. Once that is done, every decision of the BJP can be made suspicious, people even didn't care for the opinion of the AAP simply because they didn't believe BJP was such an anti-national as Congress seems to have become.
3. Isn't it surprising that the same journalists and Rahul Gandhi who would fight for the journalistic rights to question maoists, terrorists come hard on vaidik and suddenly acting nationalistic, the idea behind it is somehow seed an idea into Indians that RSS is with terrorists.
4. While Hindu middle classes may not believe RSS as an terrorist friendly organization, its enough for the congress to paint RSS and BJP as, as incompetent as Congress is. Its the growing aspiration of Hindus thats a problem of Congress, once this is destroyed, congress they hope can climb back to power.
5.The propoganda that RSS is some how linked to terror organizations also vindicates the urdu press and the muslim intellectual propoganda that the terrorist acts are because of RSS and Muslims radicals have no role to play in it, consoling them of any psychological pain they had to borne out the radicalness of some muslim fanatics. Muslim moderates would rather believe in these lies and console them than confront hard truths about how their faith had been twisted.
6.Finally somebody questioned Modi Govt as to why they wouldn't come hard on vaidik. I am not modi apologist but guys don't you think. This is a perfect trap laid by Aiyar, if Modi prosecutes vaidik, Right wing friends of BJP get annoyed, Liberals question modi on his strong arm tactics. And you see the Media turning upside down within a matter of minutes deriding modi saying that he is destroying journalist freedo!!
7. When the matter is an ass ignore it.
I blame all this in Javadekar( and thereby even on Narendra Modi for having chosen him ) and his inability to smartly manage the public discourse and sieze the initiative. Nothing seems to have changed in mainstream media despite Modi coming to power.
DeleteMany of the Modi cabinet are close to the Congress and MSM, eg. Jaitley, Swaraj, Javdekar, Ravishankar Prasad etc. They have no inclination to tackle the wretched MSM and Congress. Modi is losing a lot of support as they have showed no serious intent to tackle these people and go after illicit money in India and abroad. Very disappointing a la Vajpayee.
DeleteIt is indeed disappointing. Probably Mr Subramaniam Swamy is senior to N Modi, his appointment anywhere near to the Govt might embarrass Modi.
DeleteI don't know what connection this Vaidik guy has with Baba Ramdev?
ReplyDeleteRead below link to check what is modi's priority right no
ReplyDeletehttp://indianexpress.com/article/opinion/columns/no-proof-required-watch-what-we-do-not-what-we-say/99/
On the mark. The biggest misfortune of people is the utter failure of BJP in managing information highway. After three decades they have no channel of their own. Why? Start a channel, call these morons bash them left right and centre. No they wont. They are happy running into anti bjp studios and plead before them. Modi should first put a hard core bjp man in charge of I&B. Ask bjp to start a channel. Otherise no hope.
ReplyDeleteRavi, I have been saying what Vijayashankar has stated. We should have one English channel. Through your medium, ask for financial help to launch a channel and I am sure you will get sufficient. Alternatively, let the BJP start an English channel to set new goals, launch new journalistic norms and introduce new standards. The first thing is to prosecute the team of 15 along with Vaidik, for what is wrong with Vaidik is also wrong with the team of 15.
DeleteEstablishing and running a real TV news channel costs crores of rupees and human resources. Instead, it may be viable option to trian run a YouTube Live channel (8 hours a day weekdays initially). Costs will be a decent studio room, hardware and human resources. I am no expert in media, just a thought.
Delete@mediacrooks: "Among them were Barkha Dutt (Pakistan’s permanent fool in India), Dileep Padgaonkar (India’s 2 nd biggest IM), a non-Indian like Sidharth Varadabhai"
ReplyDeleteI don't think Barkha Dutt is Pakistan’s permanent fool in India. In fact, she is Pakistan’s permanent paid crook in India.
As for Dileep Padgaonkar - an Indian citizen, Sidharth Varadabhai - a non-Indian are in fact Pakistanis by mind and soul.
"CongressMuktBharat" (#CMB) doesn't simply mean disappearance of Sonia Congress in Indian politics. #CMB means total destruction of divide & rule hate ideology, Terr0rist appeasing tactics to gain v0te banks and paid media sucking up to party in power for money and doles.
By taking initiative and leading this pack of media crooks, Mr. Mani Aiyar is trying to take revenge on Modi who successfully transformed Mani Aiyar's cheap comments, hate words like "Chiwala" into "Chai Pe Charchaa". Bharat hating Barkha Dutt is alsotaking vengence on Modi for not giving a single interview before or after 2014 elections and not providing free flight, liquors and hotel for BRICS summit.
ReplyDeleteSonia Congress which is unable to take on BJP or Modi govt politically, is trying to hurt Modi govt at the expense of Indian people for ISI and Pakistan. Now, there is almost no difference between Congress and Muslim League. Congress under Sonia now is same as Muslim League before independence.
You can blame MSM for harping Vaidik's tune too much but that should at least alert the BJP govt. Perception is everything. Vaidik doesn't belong to the typical MSM. He is a so called pure hindi BJP type guy. I have heard his sane too humble to believe talks many times but on Pakistani channels. BJP has always been very soft on Pakistan probably because they don't want to look too nationalistic. Remember Vajpayee invited Mush just after the Kargil (What was the compulsion??). He didn't let Army cross the LOC lest we shouldn't have lost so many souls. Also Ravinar..can you find out the truth of Subramaniyam Swamy talking in Fai's forum. There is a video on internet. BJP is just behaving like congress and Modi is not looking like on the driver seat. People are watching...
ReplyDeleteOn the Subramanian Swamy Issue, you can check out thru google by searching on " subramanian swamy fai". He had attended the seminar in 2003 in US at that time unaware that Fai was an ISI agent. He had also tagged along an indian embassy official to take notes. He clarified this in 2011.
Deleteideally, you should check out available material on the net .
A great article, as always. But, in the interest of the nation, why doesn't the present BJP govt act against these hoodlums and try them out in a court? All of a sudden, the present govt has become totally incommunicado! As if they have some great strategy being worked out!!
ReplyDeleteGreat write up as usual. One thing that baffles me is (apart from a million other things as well) that how has Burkha Dutt manager to survive even after being so openly antinational , have even heard from a few sources that the MI knows that she is a spy , propagandist on ISI payroll . Is itbecause its easy to observe , some kind of intelligence practice etcetra or just because congress leaders are also equally in paki sponsored bandwagon... She has to be exposed by the law and punished for all these years of damaging the fabric of our nation
ReplyDeletePlease write on this too
