The 11th Hour



(This is a MaxiPost)

Mom walks into son’s room at 4 in the morning at night. She tells him “Sweetie, power is poison”. The son feels the apple falling on his head and declares to the world “power is poison” and the parrots in our MSM applaud. They herald the arrival of the new great white hope. Just over a year later the desperate Sonia Gandhi who “hates power” is running all over desperately seeking that poison. She runs to Imam Bukhari and begs for Muslim votes. That’s the only policy the Congress has ever had – divide the country on religious and communal lines. Since she came to India SoniaG has mostly lived in the corridors of power. In the last 10 years she has been even more powerful as an unquestionable queen. Power is poison, she says! She says the Opposition is hungry for power not she. Power is poison, she says. Yet, she is rattled to the core at the prospect of losing it. Rattled enough to go and beg Bukhari for Muslim votes. Our media did some meows and rushed past this sick deed. Her fences (like SP, BSP, RJD, JDU, Arvind Kejriwal) all seem to be facing the heat. “At the stroke of midnight, when the world slept, India awoke to a great fraud being played on its parliamentary democracy. It was fleedom at midnight” said Arun Jaitley. The fraud he is referring to is the sudden ending to the parliamentary session discussing the Lokpal bill in December 2011. In that session Ram Jethmalani modified an old saying:


RamJ has been remarkably accurate. The prospect of losing power is driving the Congress and SoniaG to desperate measures. To protect this divine being who has been sent by Italy to save Indians and India a whole lot of fences operate. At the 11th hour they even got GobarPost to rake up some old Babri nonsense. Flopped! They are as desperate to keep her in power as much as she loves that poison. Their target clearly being the BJP and particularly Narendra Modi. Even during the NDA days the senior BJP leaders mollycoddled the Gandhis allowing them a free run. This guy Modi seems to be in no such mood. So they have abused him with all kinds of fake cases, name-calling and the works. In my previous post (Hunting season is over) when I mentioned a vast Christian lobby desperately working against Modi, many people scoffed at it. As if working as a “fence” for Congress and SoniaG a motley group of US Congress members again got together to scream “threat to minorities” on the eve of Indian elections.

It is not just those US Congressmen indulging in skulduggery; a familiar Christian from India, John Dayal, who has been an anti-Modi campaigner (and also a campaigner against anything pro-Hindu), was specially imported as a witness. No Hindu person of any denomination was allowed participation. Need any more proof of how the religious bigots of US want to control India? Anyone ignoring this criminal motive of US politicians to muddy Indian elections and covertly destroying Hindu culture needs an awakening. A couple of days ago Amit Shah, the BJP’s manager for UP, seems to have made a speech which asked voters to seek “revenge” and the media-parrots went into an instant outrage. Needless to say, half the morons didn’t even bother to hear or read what he said.


Timesnow was among the first to outrage as usual. The bimbos on the channel started screaming “divisive polarising” all over again at BJP and Amit Shah. Circus clown Arnab Goswami even had Timesnow screaming it was a BJP strategy that Modi would be all politically correct in his speeches but his state managers will do all the communal talk. Such is the BS these people peddle. Here is what CNN-IBN offered as a loose translation of what Shah said in Hindi to the Jats who had suffered from communal violence at Muzaffarnagar and apathy at the hands of the SP govt:


Even if one were to consider the above a crude way of sending out a political message there is absolutely nothing wrong in what was said. Amit Shah asking voters to seek revenge through the ballot is a perfect way that every citizen should seek in voting out a non-performing, communal or corrupt govt. However, the father and mother of media-filth who pose as Editor and Deputy Editor of CNN-IBN did not bother to even read the report of their own channel. Both, the Monk and the Category5Moron, were quick to scream “scary” with Rajdeep calling Shah a communal “leopard” whose spots won’t change. What would you call this pair who allegedly run a news channel but prefer to quote another news outlet to vent their hatred and scare-mongering? That’s right; both of them conveniently quoted a headline from the Indian Express while their own channel carried a translation on their website. The two are so frustrated with Modi that they clutch at anything at the 11th hour that can in some way paint Modi as a communal devil who will destroy India. But evidence suggests that it’s not Modi but Rajdeep and his Hammamis who have that agenda. This fact doesn’t escape people anymore. Of course, the hate-filled ones who share the filthy cake of CNN-IBN have to be SoniaG’s parrots at NDTV. Take a look:

You see, the crass communal nonsense of SoniaG is a grand “score” by her party, like a brilliant heist or like the winning shot according to NDTV. On the right of the above pic is the “box of parrots” jumping in delight over an opportunity to nail Amit Shah or Modi. As the tweeter observes, it is the very news outlets and their cronies who are actually being more communal than Amit Shah in scare-mongering and hate-mongering. They too know it’s their last chance at the 11th hour. Much of this “manufactured outrage” is probably to cover up the “Boti Boti” case of Congi Imran Masood and the seriously communal action of SoniaG in seeking votes by religion. Another guy, Nitish Kumar, came up with a silver bullet. He says many in BJP also eat “non-veg” food. Maybe we will have a new vote-bank by food. Frustration all over! NDTV couldn’t help LYING some more when they twisted Modi’s quote on corruption as under:

After my tweet NDTV issued an apology and deleted their tweet above. But I have no doubts, and you shouldn’t too, that this is deliberate mischief and not a “genuine error” as they claimed. It has been happening all too frequently to be an error. Other than that, this mischief from NDTV happens only with Modi or BJP, never with any other politician or party. The folks at the channel know it as does the world. A typo or a wrong attribute can be an error but totally twisting a quote to mean the opposite is no accident. It is clear mischief. A recent misadventure by the C5M to a village in UP showed that the Dalits there were fully behind Modi to her utter dismay. Naturally, the so-called angel divine of Dalits, Mayawati, too calls for a rescue by Muslims of UP like SoniaG does. Here you go:

Poor Muslims, for all that they have gotten so far from parties like SP, BSP and Congress a lot is being asked of them. Political parties are unable to combat Modi anymore and now rely on hate-mongering with a community to do them a favour. Who knows, maybe in a few days there will be an appeal to Pakistan, Bangladesh and Saudi Arabia to campaign in India to combat Modi. Seems far-fetched? Why, aren’t they already doing that with crony NGOs and US Congress representatives? As much as they hunted him, he is now haunting them. There is this man from the Southern newspaper; a man with no morals, no values and no principles who does the same thing for no rhyme or reason. He passes by the name of N. Ram, owner of The Hindu with P Malini as its editor who frequently unleashes “organised” hate letters against Modi. Here’s what appeared on April 6:

The silly Ram frequently publishes letters from “prominent citizens” against Modi. I challenge you to recall more than a name or two that you’ve ever heard in your life from the list in the spurious article. The wording of the note by these “prominent” citizens is as much BS as any that has passed in the millions of articles written against Modi. One can make a directory of scumbags if they were compiled into one. This is not the first time either. Ram published a similar letter from prominent citizens on February 20, 2014. All the media scumbags are left with nothing more to hurl at Modi. They’ve run out of ammunition as I said in my previous post. These scumbags of society indulge in fear-mongering and then they accuse Modi of nurturing fear. They are such idiots that they are oblivious to their own comedy.

Rajdeep Sardesai too is a comic moron who is oblivious to the enduring filth he promotes on TV and print over Modi and Gujarat. In every article that he trashes Modi for negligence since 2002 Rajdeep has had only one spot in the whole state of Gujarat that represents poor development or poor growth. His permanent victim has been one called “Citizen Nagar” in Ahmedabad. Look up any article or video of his where he complains of shabby facilities and you will find Citizen Nagar. Why? Because it is a Muslim locality. There is no denying that there is no state in India that still doesn’t have localities which need help. Gujarat may have its own spots (Hindu ones too). But why the obsession with only one Citizen Nagar? It was one of those days when this corrupt Rajdeep woke up at the 11th hour and decided to step out his lair of comfort that he found a Meena Bagh slum right under his nose. For the 666 years that Rajdeep has been a Sonia-Bhakt in Delhi, have you ever heard him talk of Meena Bagh or any other slum? There is no cure for willful blindness. From his 52-Crore bungalow Rajdeep can see Citizen Nagar in Ahmedabad all year but could see Meena Bagh for the first time in his life. Bravo!

From SoniaG begging Imam Bukhari to GobarPost to US bigots at their Capitol Hill to The Hindu to Mayawati appealing to Muslims to Imran Masood threatening “Boti Boti” to screaming murder over Amit Shah and the usual rants by opponents in politics and media at Modi, everyone is making a last ditch attempt to reverse their miserable fortunes. They are like those students who start reading up at the 11th hour outside the exam hall or prepare “cheat-sheets” to hide in their sleeves or in their pants. In all of this, there are still some who recognise the inevitable truth that it is only Modi who is talking governance and development and jobs. The rest are just singing the old worn-out song of secularism, communal and still resorting to appeasement and religious divisions. We are into election days from today and it doesn’t appear this 11th hour cramming will help.

  1. Brilliant! Media's twisting facts does not escape most.Its obvious that most channels exist to serve as a PR mouthpiece for Congress .
    No one is running to Amethi & Raeibarelly to expose underdevelopment and Conduct endless debates & Nukkads to sell alternatives like in Varanasi.

  2. There was a program on NDTV yesterday by Srinivasan Jain about how RSS is micromanaging the BJP campaign. The tone and tenor showed his bias. It ends with a question as to what will be the RSS' pound of flesh to which a some insignificant person who was probably tutored says that Ram Mandir at Ayodhya and Kashi Vishwanath will be built.

  3. Once our election is over and NDA comes in power with Modi at the helm, I believe American Congressional panel will hold a hearing from America's leading intelligence agencies' heads. They (the panel) will ask them how the intelligence agencies failed to see it coming? Similar hearings have already taken place about Syria and Russia' attack on its neighbor. I believe the panel will be told it is UPA fault more than Modi's popularity.

  4. BJP should have started a TV channel to keep the people of India informed...to expose the so called pseudo-secularism and vote bank politics...its late now, but still will work...thats what the last few months shows...the so called intellectuals and fiberals in India tried to project this election as secularism Vs communalism and their tactics did not work...One Man has systematically and successfully demolished their argument and was able to highlight the relevant issues like development, governance, job creation etc...Hats off to Modi...I remember his words from a recent interview..."I believe in this Great nation..great people...we tend to blame on the system for each and everything.But I don't think system is bad...with right kind of leadership, it will get back to the track!". Only great visionaries can talk like this....

    1. Many have been suggesting this for years now. ( that BJP has its own tv channel ) . Life has gone on and we have come to this stage. Let us see how the elections pan out. It is appalling to notice the level of public discourse in India . It is a cover up of failures of the government and distraction from core issues. This happens only in countries like India. Even Pakistan has a media which is nationalist, in India 99% of the media are congress @r#e lickers, mediocre, anti national, spineless, cheap.
      let us hope for the best in these elections .
      Modi should become PM with comfortable majority or else there is anarchy, civil war, decay ahead.

    2. Opportunist Subhash Chandra, owner of Zee Network, has now publicly endorsed Modi and BJP again .. I am not sure how objective this channel has been in the last 10 years of reporting news because I never followed it when I was in India, but I know he created a lot of mischief against Modi, just like Prabhu Chawla & Arun Poorie. These 3 so-called BJP sympathizers were only backing select few coterie from the D4 gang. Any news channel that BJP/RSS creates now will also unfortunately become part of the establishment within no time, such is the lure of power and sops.
      It will be a rational and unbiased voice of reason, if and only if it's strictly non-profit.

      This is no mistake. They are prejudiced, biased, sold out. Even first post has banned / blocked many commenters that sought to share the 'right' viewpoint and continue to allow even those users/commenters that use bad words, promote porn etc.

    4. Yes!! I completely agree with you. They have blocked my account also. I think it is on the instructions of their masters in UPA. I would like to challenge them to show me one comment from me in a derogatory or in un-parliamentary language. Each of my comment was backed with logic and evidence. This is their love for freedom of expression. I think I should start a blog where I can publish my deleted or not published comments on FirstPost, or similar sites.

  6. On a hind sight I feel BJP peaked a little too early in its campaign.There are still about 40days before the last phase of election ends.Attrition among the public will set in from now on and this is when the anti nationals will take advantage.I think that is exactly what we are seeing.People going to the polling boots carry their last memories of the campaign season.The absence of a party owned channel is showing up very much.I still want NaMo and his team to focus more on development issues rather than UPA bashing as the a large chunk of Indian public are still slaves of political correctness even at the expense of their own welfare.

No one wants to go into what "Church of England" is doing as a stakeholder in the Thorium-thief Vedanta's investment portfolio? The Churches have taken over more than 60% of our shorelines and no one in the government seems to care, and we have a Christian AK Anthony as the Defence Minister. No one wants to talk about the Augusta-Westlands deal. I hope Modi comes to power and we have a public hearing of all these Deshdrohis and the lynch mob gets these deshdrohis.

    4) US action regarding Modi.
    5) Ishrat Jahan

    7) Innumerable lies through MSM,NGOs,diff political parties,leaders,organization.

    NOTA was accident. Sorry, I can’t agree with the word ‘mischief’. Continuous and deliberate attempt to malign and portray someone as a demon can’t be termed as mischief. everything planned from the very moment, Sri ABV handed over Gujarat’s responsibility to Sri Narendra Modi. Planned & executed with help from BJP’s ‘tall’ & ‘short’ leaders(!).

  18. Ravinar, hats off to you for this brilliant post. Now the people are aware of the MSM's agenda, they are not carried away by their lies. Moreover, SM is there for unbiased news. This is evident from the hits your posts are getting and the comments made. There is a silent majority of the public who see everything, may not comment but will act at the right time (thats is voting day). So there is no spotting of NaMo come what may. Whatever lies peddled by Congress or other partes are their cronies like MSM etc. OInly thing to be ensured is everybody exercise their vote. In Karnataka, election is on 17th April 2014. Friday is holiday for Good Friday. If a person leaves on Wednesday evening, he can have extended weekends for 5 continuous days.

These days half the news is about what these worthless most divisive politicians called Modi by which name. So depressing and frustrating for them! Even sometime back when 65 Respectable MPs signed and sent a letter secretly to US requesting denying Visa to NaMo and did disloyalty towards Indian Parliament in an attempt of stopping a Chief Minister of India, these news channels did not rake up the issue of exposing them like they do for a single word uttered by any BJP ppl and shamelessly twisting according to their comfort.

India must ensure a handsome Modi win. The alternative is too dreadful to contemplate. As Sri Krishna said 'Just do your duty and leave the rest to Me'. This election is today's Mahabharat.

  22. I think what outsiders like US government, NGOs or media fear is with the emergence of Modi will give Indians in India and across the world a much stronger cultural and patriotic identity.
    For example when I meet a Gujarati outside Gujarat, they will always make point how proud they are of being a Gujarati. I didn't see this attitude 10 years ago.
    Basically Modi will make all Indians beam with pride, patriotism, and culturally aware. and this scares the outsiders as now they will face a strong India.

Let all BJP loyalists and voters be requested to use only this tea. The proceeds from this tea can go to the PM's relief fund. The sale of this tea will be a parameter of NaMo's popularity all through the rule of NDA.When sales fall, BJP must tighten their belt.

    one bad fish spoils the whole pond and here corrupt-communal-criminal-congress-created thousands and lacs of blood-thirsty sharks have swallowed up lacs & lacs of indians – trillions & trillions dollars worth of our wealth-resources & reserves – priceless pride & glory of all of us-indians and still roaming around all across and trying-trying & trying to kill ‘modi’ all for a cause – ‘destroy india – break india – kill india’ – of course.

    and narendra damodardas modi has managed to thwart them for long – but – with our country at stake – now – it’s no longer a ‘one man’ job & it’s time to stand up & do our bit & rise above all and save him and save our ‘Bharat Maa’ from these enemies-from these traitors-from these wolves for once & for all.

    and all we need is master strategy – excellent planning – brilliant execution and military like precision and that’s all – yes – that’s all.

  33. MMS is insufferable as the election approaches. Barkha is permanently stationed in Muzaffar nagar trying to give a communal spin to everything from Modi's stand on development to BJP manifesto. Arnab's "super" prime-time is an orchestra of cacophony with all his "guests" outshouting each other. Typically, a volley of allegations is thrown at a person, mostly the BJP spokesperson, and when he starts responding others join-in and in the ensuing din, a smug Arnab pronounces the judgment of the day.

    On US flip-flops on Modi, here below is the link to a telling article by Swapan Dasgupta

  34. The media as usual is trying every secular trick in the book. viz
    1. Imam samjhauta
    2.Cobra sting
    3.Highlighting temple in the BJP manifesto as if it was the main agenda
    4. Amit shah's speech
    .....
    So far the public has not bitten, but I think they will keep trying. Elections are month long and that gives them a lot of time to swing votes by continuously highlighting some issue or another. ( remember Khandhar in 2009 ).
    Apart from that they will get celebrities to endorse their PM candidate during the exit polls. I can't understand how the EC can allow celebrities to announce who they have voted for. Campaigning is supposed to stop 48 hours before elections but supposedly it can start right after the first ballot is posted. I am keeping my fingers crossed. Can't be sure of anything till the votes are tallied and results announced.

    Regarding ZEE endorsement of BJP, this is the first time that media houses have broken rank. ZEE got its ass singed when Jindal broke the omerta code and produced a sting on its editors. They became untouchable, much like the BJP. But this actually benefited the audience as we can now get a much wider perspective on issues than secularism, secularism ,secularism. AAJ TAK is putting their bit behind AAP. CNN-IBN have support days. One day they support the BJP, another day the rest. Its reflected in the firstpost articles

    1. ZEE is supporting BJP only to save itself from backlash. It is NOT a genuine supporter.

    2. Whatever be the reason the fact is that the media cartel is broken. Earlier when you flipped through the news channels, the same news would be playing verbatim on all channels. The debates would be same, same issue, even the same questions being asked.
      The market forces, i.e competitiveness which was tom-tomed as a balancing force to counter media hypocrisy and corruption was missing. But now Zee has been forced to strike out on its own for their survival. Now at least stories cannot be buried as there is one member who will be willing to publish it

  35. It is not a question of openly supporting a party by a media house. The question is about news anchors being too biased in favour of congress. I think each one of such people have benefited in some way or the other and they are afraid of loosing out on perks.

  36. Let Saliva sardesai and sagarika goose bark to their heart content. They may not have chance to continue to do so after the elections and they will find a fitting retribution for all the sins and crimes.

  37. The real question is ...is the content in those sting tapes true? we can always blame Congress of political opportunism with regard to timing of tape release. But our bigger concern should be "is it true"?
