Thanks to you, I read the relevant Kandahar excerpts from L.K.Advani’s autobiography “My Country My Life”:

http://www.mycountrymylife.com/excerpts/phase-5.html

Here is my take on the Kandahar IC 814 plane-hijacking episode.

Our pseudo-secularists (Congress I) and media wanted that the 160-plus passengers and crew-members should have been allowed to be slaughtered halal-style like newly-wed Rupin Katyal and blown-up by the Jihadis (like the 59 train-passengers who were roasted like chickens by the Jihadis in Godhra), so that they could have celebrated the bloodbath.

Oh, they are saddened that 160 Indian lives were needlessly saved.

The BJP should have just let these 160 Indians die !!!

Saving the lives of 160 Indians by releasing three Jihadis was the biggest crime in the history of mankind. The BJP should be punished for that.

The BJP is damned if it didn’t, and damned if it did.

@ Hades

I understand your point. That is why I said, that the author of the article at http://www.bengalgenocide.com , seems to feel that being “secularist” in India probably, is not nationalist. He/she certainly gives his reason for that, which obviously has been the point of this entire debate.

A naxalite says he’s a nationalist.

A Bajrang Dal chap says he’s a nationalist.

Both disagree with each other, yet nobody disowns nationalism.

Similarly, if you disagree with “secularists” that doesn’t mean you give up secularism, now does it?

Because, as HHBB pointed out, “secularists” are actually playing into the hands of the Islamists.

Somehow, thats seems to be the feeling of the writer too.

@Abhinab

Awww…
You are exactly what the Jihadis need……on their opposite side, though

I never said you are the Taliban.
From what you write, it DOES NOT look like you follow the “Q”.
But the Taliban sure loves u, for your self delusional interpretation of what they believe in.

Karnataka seems to be doing perfectly fine…better than Bengal and Assam for sure.

Your comments on the Christian Evangelist aggression (and calling its manifestation , “Englishtan”), seems to expose your extremely childish comprehension of this whole issue.

For your information, the Anglican Church, hates the Evangelists almost as much as the Bajrang Dal does

I just felt it ironic that the piece criticises Islamic agrression/fundementalism and then goes on to place nationalism and secularism in India in mutually exclusive silos.

If the writer of that piece can do it, why is s/he criticising the Islamists for doing it?
