Seema Mustafa, in response to Subramanian Swamy’s article in DNA wrote:
“The language that the politician who heads the one-man Janata Party has used
is reprehensible to say the least and I am sure there are laws in this country
that can be invoked to take him to task for inflaming passions through complete
falsehoods.” There you are, a veiled invitation to trigger happy secularists to
drag Swamy into FIRs and court cases over what he has written. Did she manage
to have the desired effect? You bet!
Now, if the statement Mustafa made had come from some ‘secular’
politician it would have been understandable. Unfortunately, it comes from a
journalist. Journalists are usually the ones to shout themselves hoarse over
freedom of speech and ironically it is a journalist who tries to invoke the law
to prosecute someone who has expressed his views. This is not just true for
Seema Mustafa, this is true for all the so called secular media which doesn’t hesitate
to drag The Gita into concocted controversy but doesn’t have the balls to ever
even mention the Koran. If the secularists will somehow and someday learn
honesty then the likes of Swamy wouldn’t need to write provocative articles.
Swamy also exposes how thin and flimsy the tolerance of these secularists are.
I had the privilege of going to school but had to learn in later life that the
moghuls that our school textbooks glorified were actually villains and enemies
of Hindus. You can now expect all the self-righteous nonsense to flow from the
minorities commission and other groups to follow.
Here’s the first one from a petition by constituents of Harvard University:
“Swamy proposes a truly shocking set of "strategies" for
"deter[ring] terrorism" in an op-ed appearing in the July 16th
edition of the Daily News & Analysis, an Indian newspaper. These include
"declar[ing] India a Hindu Rashtra in which non-Hindus can vote only if
they proudly acknowledge that their ancestors were Hindus";
"[r]emov[ing] the masjid in Kashi Vishwanath temple and the 300 masjids at
other temple sites"; "[e]nact[ing] a national law prohibiting
conversion from Hinduism to any other religion"; and "[p]ropagat[ing]
the development of a Hindu mindset…..Writing in the wake of the July 13, 2011,
bombings in Mumbai, Swamy has exploited this event not only to promote a vision
of Indian society based on Hindu supremacy, but to disparage and cast suspicion
on the entire Muslim community in India. "Muslims of India," he
states, "are being programmed by a slow reactive process to become radical
and thus slide into suicide against Hindus."
The muslims in modern day India are not responsible for any of the
past. But those denying the past and wilfully ignoring the aspirations of some
Islamic agenda are clearly living in denial. Some of these honourable men and
women come from the stock of the JNU, the Congress and the Communist ideology
which glorifies the Islamic atrocities as secular rule in India. It takes rare
character and courage to be as outspoken and honest as Swamy is. Sure, tar him
as a maverick, call him names as Seema Mustafa does, ignore his multi-religious
family as the media does and peddle lies about the history of India as the JNU
lot do and you have a concoction for a heady clash of religions sooner or later.
Rahul Kanwal of Headlines Today, a bright journalist who is a rising
star had this to tweet:
Rahul Kanwal:
Strange Twitter logic. When we do story against Cong, we are hailed as
patriots. When we expose BJP, we are called Cong agents & traitors.
August 3 – 22.30
Oh yeah? Who exactly called you agents and traitors? What Rahul forgets
is that he tends to ridicule the BJP and Hindutva at every step of the way.
Every political party has factions and each faction has their leader. That is
why we have elections too. Is that logic lost on journalists? If Rahul Kanwal
was sensible enough he would find an answer to his tweet in his own stupid
tweet he made earlier:
Rahul Kanwal
How can hand picked nominee of tainted CM be expected to prosecute boss
to whom he owes elevation & existence. #MoralHighGroundOnCorruption
August 3 – 16.26
There, that stone-throwing, calling someone a hand-picked nominee
ignoring the fact that there was a secret ballot held to elect the leader of
the Karnataka BJP is not the doing of the Twitterati but Kanwal’s own way of
casting aspersions. The election by secret ballot of a CM is one of the finest
things to have happened in Indian democracy and a practice that should become
more frequent and common and yet media brokers like Kanwal ridicule that
process and then wonder why the twitterati are against him or his channel. No,
they aren’t against you but the severe bias with which you report events and
colour news items.This same bias colours every aspect of the Hindu-Muslim reporting that the media indulges in. Hindus are fair game, muslims are victims. That's the media line.Those who die are the aggressors!
Forget temples that Swamy talks about, I am not even willing to accept all the crap about even the Taj Mahal.
If you go through the writings and investigation by Stephen Knapp there are lies that have been peddled through
the centuries. Would the secularists dare and be open to a detailed
investigation of the Taj Mahal? When Swamy talks about temples being destroyed,
let’s start with the Taj Mahal itself. The rest can wait. Knapp’s site has
sufficient evidence and photographs to warrant a detailed investigation. You
may want to go through his site and many others who claim it to be a Shiva
temple.
One needs go through the roads less travelled across this country
through Gujarat, Rajasthan, Maharashtra and many other states to notice the many small
Islamic townships that have come up. Many of them resplendent in their riches
and well-built houses and shops. You have to wonder in amazement where all that
money and wealth comes from to set up such mini Islamic colonies. The
radicalisation of those willing muslims who may wish to overthrow democracy and
our way of life is not unique to India. Take a look at this little poster and
the related news item:
Daily Mail: "Islamic extremists have launched a poster campaign across the UK
proclaiming areas where Sharia law enforcement zones have been set up. Communities
have been bombarded with the posters, which read: ‘You are entering a
Sharia-controlled zone – Islamic rules enforced.’
The bright yellow messages daubed on bus stops and street lamps have
already been seen across certain boroughs in London and order that in the
‘zone’ there should be ‘no gambling’, ‘no music or concerts’, ‘no porn or
prostitution’, ‘no drugs or smoking’ and ‘no alcohol’. Hate preacher Anjem
Choudary has claimed responsibility for the scheme, saying he plans to flood
specific Muslim and non-Muslim communities around the UK and ‘put the seeds
down for an Islamic Emirate in the long term". The media in UK suggests it’s
the work of sick minds but those living there have already wound up their shops
and many others have exited the area and moved to other places where they aren’t
threatened by these Islamists.
I have read news reports which mention Hindu homes were marked with
yellow paint for slaughter in the erstwhile East Pakistan, now Bangladesh.
Swamy sort of warns you not to wait for such a day to arrive in India. Subramanian
Swamy, I think, only alludes to the fact that there might be many stray muslims
and muslim organisations in India who wish to emulate or secretly dream the
dream that Anjem Choudary has. Are all muslims involved in that dream?
Certainly not, but there are no muslim voices against those who nurture that
dream. Their voices only come up when provoked by writers like Seema Mustafa to
invoke stupid laws which should not exist in the first place.
For those petitioners in the US who want Harvard University to get rid
of Swamy I have to say that they must constitute the greatest gathering of
useful idiots who neither know the law nor the idea of freedom. The US supreme
court once dismissed even a suit by religious leader Jerry Falwell who was
featured in a silly ad by Larry Flynt (Of Hustler magazine) which was
outrageous and even allowed a Nazi march through a predominantly Jewish area in
Chicago. That is the kind of freedom of speech that democracies need.
The stupid hate speech laws should be removed. You don’t need freedom
to say nice things. Real freedom of thought cannot be stopped by laws. You can
stop speech but you CANNOT stop thought. And I wish our politicians would wake up
and alter such laws. Whether you agree with Swamy or not, give him the space to
utter whatever he wants. Let’s not forget that joker from Samajwadi party who
announced a prize for the head of the Danish cartoonist who made the Mohammad
cartoons. That man still roams free despite encouraging murder in public. Swamy
hasn’t incited or encouraged any violence whatsoever. Those who can’t stand his
writings are free to write against him. If not, they can shut themselves in
their bathrooms and weep.
The best part of the whole drama is that Subramanian Swamy loves a
court battle. Anyone dragging him to court would only be stupid enough to
oblige him and when they do, there will be more worms crawling out of the
secular can. These fools should realise
that the ‘Get Swamy’ campaign will not work.
