I have been reading your old posts and this post made me search for more information. Following link is a follow-up on the foetus story which seems to have been wrong. Don’t know whether you covered this in your subsequent posts or where the below is also the truth or not. While the carnage by the Hindus in the Godhra aftermath cannot be justified, it does seem from the below link that it was deliberately shown to be more brutal and disgusting (I am not saying killing and raping is not disgusting or brutal – but the foetus thing was beyond words) than it might have been by human rights activitists fighting for the right of the minorities (Muslims). Hope you do read very late comments (late by 4 years) on your posts.

Many of the Latif’s cohorts were put under watch. One of them was his driver, apparently responsible for, in one daring move, hiding a huge cache of weapons meant for terrorist groups. This was part of the consignment that had arrived before Mumbai blasts of 1993. Latif was under surveillance so his driver had hidden the arms in a well in his (the driver’s) native village near Ujjain. The driver eventually faced over 50 cases including some under the National Security Act; He was arrested at various stages, by the Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh police, but avoided conviction. When not facilitating terror networks, he was engaged in extortion rackets in Rajasthan, acting almost certainly on behalf of others. His principals, the police believe, may be linked to terror funding groups. Latif’s driver’s name was Sohrabuddin Sheikh.

Yes, this was the same Sohrabuddin Sheikh for whose encounter Modi was being criticised by the Congress(I) and the Media.

‘A Nationalist is being accused and harassed for having exterminated a Terrorist!’ by the Congress(I) and the Media that calls itself ‘Secular’.

Then I saw this news

Wither India, wither.

I fully agree with you. The infinite speed with which the left did a complete volte face is highly suspicious.

It would not be surprising if certain channels in India (& overseas) are in the pay of petro-dollars. The BBC has been caught red-handed on many occasions trying to paint Islam in a far better light (e-mails were found & publicised). Many BBC reporters are find promotion to Al Jazeera after a while. This is not surprising, the mafia in the 1930s had many reporters in their pay. If I remember correctly, Al Capone even murdered an editor (?) in his pay after the police started investigating the editor.

The Tehelka episode is treachory of the most disgusting kind. If this was China, they would be strung up with piano wire. The Tehelka expose was publicised in desperation the very day after a significant international development on Kashmir was about to be made.

On 11 March, Kofi Annan clearly states that the UN position is aligned with India’s, to the sheer horror of Tehelka & BBC Pakistan & other Pakistani terrorists

The very next day the Tehelka bombshell is unleashed to completely divert national and international attention.

Actually your assertion says more about your bias than the channel’s. That is because you have not substantiated your allegations. CNN-IBN can argue that they could not report earlier because no journalists were allowed to Nandigram, and as far as I know that is a true assertion.

As far as your Congress supporter accusation, that is old hat actually. Both extreme right and left wingers routinely accuse the various TV channels and press of working for the Congress. It’s become hilarious now. BJP accused Tehelka, Aaj Tak and Headline News of doing the same after the sting. Now you accuse CNN-IBN. Many others accuse Outlook magazine of being a Congress stooge.

Amazing how many news outlets Congress owns.

So, guys, closely follow CNN-IBN as elections in Gujarat is very close.

Also, for India-US nuclear deal to pass, Congress would want to use Nandigram as a trade-off with CPI(M). CNN-IBN has already swung into action with many reports about the incident. What is really shameful is when the CPI(M) cadres was actually committing those crimes, there was no such reports. [Please see the links below]

I think Rajdeep Sardesai/CNN-IBN and Tehelka.com are working for Congress.
