JJ has hit the nail on the head: the true roots of terrorism

[K S Kannan]

Terrorism today, whether in the crowded streets of Delhi or the war-torn alleys of Gaza, 

whether in Paris, Kabul, or Baghdad, is not a random explosion of violence 

but a doctrinally driven, scripturally sanctioned, theologically justified, and institutionally manufactured phenomenon 

within popular strands of Islamic radicalism. 

Yet, even as evidence piles up, a powerful intellectual ecosystem relentlessly attempts to gaslight the public, 

distort the discourse, and shield the ideological core of such violence from scrutiny. 

Instead, questions are raised on media for broadcasting such ‘poisonous rant’ ...

The bitter truth here is missed by many Sanskritists, who in their  maudlin pursuit of the chimera of the equality of all religions,

try to draw facile parallels between the Hindu and other scriptures, labouring under an illusion viz.

if you speak good of other faiths, those other faiths will naturally reciprocate your generous gesture,

thereby leading to a cessation, sooner or later, of all social clashes. 

Never can anyone on earth ever purge the Abrahamic faiths

of their deeply ingrained grotesque megalomania.

Sir:

The source of the violence is obvious. 

What is more worrisome is the fact that in spite of all the money funneled into Kashmiris squatting on Kashmiri Pandit land in terms of education, reservation etc the mindset does not move beyond kalma, jihad and kaffir. 

Apparently in chappan inch chaathi's politics sabkaa saath sabka wikaas includes lumpen elements like these and BHIM boys whose sole ambition is plastered all over X.

It just does not include V1s and other GC people who have preserved what is worth preserving in sanatana dharma.

Check out the cut off scores for DRDO and ISRO and you will know why our "gormint" needs joint ventures with the Israelis, Russians and the French for drones, SAMs and jet engines.

When the system pedestalizes mediocrity in order to manipulate vote banks, it is hard to feel sympathy for the system and its puppet masters.

There was a beautiful African proverb: "The boy who was not hugged will burn down the whole village to feel the warmth"

I feel sorry for the poor people who lost lives for some fools' vision of paradise.

Thats all.
