sorry to differ with u murali... in UP once naxals meant dalit and were tortured both by "upper" castes under RSS's philosophical guidance and the state machinary... dalit activists fighting against "upper" caste atrocities and for the rights of dalits are labelled as naxals/maostists and tortured. this happened in Khailranji..it's happening in kerala, tamilnadu, andhra, et etc It's wrong to attache the terror tag with 'Islam' If Hindus cant be called terrorists, muslims can never be called so
and regarding RSS, it's not only involved in inciting communcal violence but also in cultural terrorism in subtle ways which was made evident by some its secret circulars (refer Braj Ranjan MAni's Debrahmanising History, published by Manohar) regards On 13/07/07, Murali K Warier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Such a stereotyping is unfortunate, but is quite understandable > (though I don't know of any association of violence with Dalits).
