Well said Selma. Congratulations for dubbing the entire Hindu community as
Fundamentalist. It’s a pity that the anti-Hindu, quasi-intelligent ilk, that
you represent.
Surely you are euphoric about a handful of these misguided elements in
Mangalore out of the 80 crore Hindu community who are apprehended and mere
allegiance of some people who have indulged in violence on churches and
Pub and are Hindu by faith is enough for you to call them "Hindu
fundamentalist and terrorists".
The action of these few fundamentalist gives you the leverage to equate all
the Hindus with Jehadi terrorists and it is become your leisure pursuit
for bashing all the Hindus of Karnataka and now of Goa.
I think you are staying in Dubai , imagine if you had to accuse the entire
Muslim community of UAE as fundamentalist in local media over there , you would
know the consequences that your beheading would have been certain for
blasphemy and the footage would have been uploaded on You tube for entire
world to watch.
I do not condone these violent acts, neither I am against criticizing these
fundamentalist organizations like VHP and all the types of Senas and I do not
mind demanding ban on these organizations. But labeling their acts who are
not representatives of entire Hindu population as Hindu extremism or Hindu
Terror is outright prejudiced.
Regards
Vinay

Dear Marshall,Thank you for those news articles, which are chilling to the
bone. In a perverse way, the Mangalore pub incident is good news, because now
we know that no one is safe from Hindu extremism. That sooner or later some
excuse will be found to attack the disadvantaged and disenfranchised. It's
interesting that India is paddling backwards so fast, we can't even catch our
breath. In anycase, this should be a warning to all those going to vote in the
next election. Vote BJP at your peril. And those who think BJP in Goa is any
different, there is an old Goan saying, you can put the dog's tail in the
cannon but you can't straighten it out.Cheers,Selma--- On Tue, 2/3/09, Marshall
