Famous Punjabi Singer, Dilshad Akhtar, is shot dead by senior punjab
police officer. Dilshad was giving his performance on
police officer's son's marriage when bridegroom's father, a DSP or SSP, shot
him.

And the deshbhagats will salute KPSGill because he eliminated
the pakistani intruder!

Rajwinder,
Is KPS Gill the real culprit? I think not. The real culprits are
those people who put him in that position to carry out those unlawful
acts. KPS Gill is just a scapegoat. If KPS GILL had not accepted that
position Delhi masters would have put some other slave in that position.
That's why, I think, blaming KPS GILL for lawlessness in Punjab does
not make much sense.
BTW, who is the current DGP of punjab (KPS Gill retired in the last
week of Dec. 1995)?
Sudhakar
And, on the issue of Deshbhagats, I would expect that all Indians, be they
Hindu, Sikh, Muslim, etc. would endeavor to be desh bhakts. (in the mold of
Gandhiji, Bhagat Singh, Rana Pratap, Vivekananda, etc.)
Patriotism makes a country great, just look at America.
PS. thanks for the offer, I'll get in touch with you soon to set it up.

As I have repeatedly said, first the crime has to be committed. Only then
can someone be called a criminal. So the question you need to answer
before asking these theoretical questions [whih are nothing more than
the usual deshbhagt strategy to evade responsibility and accountability
for their rantings and biases] are being repeated here. I will definitely
[and that's a promise, as long as I have net access] answer all your

I think Mr. Akhtar was a finger of the Foreign Hand (ie the
Pakistani-Chinese-Western-Human Rights Groups conspiracy) that is
working to undermine India. Maybe he was working to create internal
dissatisfaction amongst the Sikhs. His role in this Grand Conspiracy
remains a mystery.
Obviously his strategy (whatever it was) wasn't working because the
Sikhs have nothing to be dissatisfied about in India. But a patriotic
son still decided to get rid of this trouble maker. :-)

First there is a difference in keeping say a kirpaan or just a rifle or
something like that which is commonly seen in the countrysides in
Punjab/UP.
I'd like to think that there is no religious sanctions for keeping
automatic weapons, rocket launchers, grenades and the like. Moreover, much
like the Black Muslims who turn to Islam and not realizing that Islamic
traders were the ones who made money selling the black slaves to the
Europeans, Sikh extremists were selling their cause by importing arms from
Islamic Pakistan (and still are).
I doubt that if the Sikh Gurus were alive today, they would ever except
arms from "descendants" of Mughal rulers. Therein lies the biggest irony
of all. A "religious war" supposedly brought about by strict adherance to
the Guru's teachings, by collaborating with the biggest enemies of the
then Gurus!
I do know what your response is going to be, that since the Sikhs were
"oppressed" therefore there is religious sanction to keep such arms
against the oppressor.
However, I do not know how one can say that religious freedom is not
present in India for sikhs as of this moment. For example go to Delhi and
watch the kinds of marches Sikhs conduct every week without any hindrance.
Or the businesses that Sikhs run throughout India, the busing, taxi
drivers, dabaahs, small businesses, large businesses.
The popular myth that (besides other issues) Punjab is a breadbasket of
India and hence deserves special attention or treatment is ridiculous.
States have a vested interest in improving their economies. Improving
agricultural methods shall see greater yields from other states. The
"green revolution" was a result of massive aid to Punjab via the US and
other international organizations. Ofcourse the local farmers were
hardworking and honest no doubt about that. However, economically,
Maharashtra and Karnataka and Kerala are the ones to keep an eye out for
in the next few decades.
What's the role of expatriate Sikhs in the USA vs. the role of expatriate
Gujaratis or Keralites? The Gujaratis and Keralites are more interested in
improving their state's econonmy and making money using their expertise
learnt in the USA, whereas a group of extremely rich and influential Sikhs
(atleast the visible ones) in the USA are lobbying greedy senators up for
reelection by donating dollars in the 6 figures.
Other political issues can be solved by discussions I believe. Longowol
was assasinated. Now, anyone who tries to settle out peacefully is named a
traitor a sellout of the "sikh cause" by the local US cable TV programs
that Sikhs air. They don't have a sense for reality and are about a few
years behind in their perceptions. Also, rampant brainwashing is a mark of
that TV cable show that airs in the USA.

Would you mind keeping your posts to relevant newsgroups please? We are
getting a lot of this "noise" because of cross-postings like this one from
you. None of the regular readers of alt.culture.karnataka really care much
for discussions about bhindranwale or the khalsa and if we do we will
definitely come and chat with you on the punjab or khalsa news group. The
idea of having regional newsgroups is to promote discussion about that
region and if you cross post indicriminately like this, you are just being
a very irresponsible person and not furthering the cause of sikhism or the
khalsa by irritating people on other news groups. So would you please keep
this stuff where it belongs?
Thanks a lot!

There is FULL religious sanction to Sikhs to keep "shastar"s which
means "weapons", and that includes ALL weapons.

You are either misinformed, or lying or deluded when you claim the above.
Whatever be the case, you are patently wrong and I suggest you
check out FIRSTHAND what exactly the circumstances and developments
have been in Punjab over the last 15 years. In particular, you should
try meeting some orphans of 1984 carnage [euphemized as 'riots'],
widows of Sikhs eliminated in "encounters", viCtims of rape
and police torture, the lone surviving member of a family killed
by Alam Sena, etc etc etc.
Did you ever try even IMAGINING the sufferings of such people?

#1, there is ONLY ONE GURU. There always havs been only one Guru,
and it continues to this day. guru Nanak just took different bodies- and
currently is the umbrella over his Sikhs as Guru Granth Sahib. Anyways
this was a minor clarification.
#2, wars are all religious-- some people just have different religions--
maybe money, power, racism, whatever.
#3 The biggest enemies of the Guru is oppression and zulm, whichever
shape it takes-- Mughal rulers, British colonists, Brahminical elites
or even "Sikh" police officers. There is no special animosity
reserved for Muslims/Mughals. For your info, someone by the last name
of Mughal was very helpful in getting the Sikhism newsgroup created.
In any case, you should go check out the "Zafarnamah" by Guru Gobind
Singh ji. It will remove al your doubts provided you are honest
enough to believe Guru Gobind SIngh's own word.
>I do know what your response is going to be, that since the Sikhs were

There is religious sanction to keep arms, irrespective of ANYTHING.

I suggest you check out the AUtumn issues of the Indian Army
Newsletter "Baatcheet" firsthand. It should remove any and all
doubts, provided you are willing to accept facts as facts.
Or, check out the long list of names of THOUSANDS of Sikhs butchered
in 4 days in November 1984. God, how easily can some people
delude themselves.
Or, check out the list of Sikhs tortured in the numerous interrogation
centers all over Punjab.
Or check out the list of thousands of SIkhs who have been
incarcerated for DECADES without trial.
Mr varshney, I could go on, but it is useless. If these few facts do
not make a difference to you, I doubt anything will. God knows,
I feel bitter and helpless, but I do know not everyone, Sikh or not,
is so coldly ruthless and cruel as you are. [I have that impression
courtesy your views as above].
>The popular myth that (besides other issues) Punjab is a breadbasket of

Fuck them. They do not compensate the scores of thousands [not all Sikhs]
who have lost their lives in Punjab in the last 15 years. God knows we
Punjabis did not lose that many of our kin in the whole
100 years of British rule over us. We did not lose even one-tenth
as many. Answer me this, Mr varshney.

Thatr is entirely your subjective opinions. Unless being a Sikh
is fundamentally a wrong thing, the Sikhs are as right as you in their
opinions. And tell me, Mr. MahaDeshbigot, how many Sikhs do you have
who agree with ANY of the above pontifications of yours? And,
lest you forget, let me remind you that the issues are related to Sikhs,
not to you, your deshbigot ilk, the Pakistanis, the Arabs, Saddam
Hussein or Robert Mugabe. If anyone should have any say in the
matter, the Sikhs and Punjabis would be the first. Your deshbigot ilk
wouldn't even be at the end of the line of people whose opinions
should matter.
God knows it would make the world a better place if all criminals
[and that includes you by virtue of your crime of justifying crimes]
dropped dead. Anyways, leave my wishful thinking aside. Just address
the points I have made above.
Meanwhile, I will pray for you the next time I say Ardaas, Mr Varshney.

I am not ignoring the plight of the murdered people. Countless others die
via oppression and discrimination in India so each deserves special
attention. Part of the problem lies in the way the Indian government is
structured and that the uprising are based on ethnocentrism, nothing more.
I talked about oppression as of this moment, and not a few years back, or
during the "Delhi riots" (or carnage as you might say, but the same term

killed was 100 times greater 1947-48 ie.)

I never claimed that people have not been killed w/o trials or the like.
So you cannot charge that I am "coldly ruthless and cruel."

> I would love to have an instructive look inside a deshbhagt mind.
That the Punjab has been a free region forever, and that it belongs to the
Sikh people since its "inception." The other more realistic issues are the
transfer of land areas, water sharing but there is no stopping where one
can go back to history and claim a region as their own group's! You could
go back 4-5 centuries and trace the history to emergence of Sikhism, I
could trace the region's history 10 centuries and claim it as Hindu land!
That is to say, religion and politics when merged become quite explosive.

You tell me whether the pro-independence Sikhs in the US are genuinely

Political sophistication is an art that still needs to be mastered by the

as a whole, especially the state of Tamil Nadu.

I never justified any killings in my post, and therefore please do not
jump to any hasty conclusions. I understand why you are doing that though.

Once again, the Gurus had nothing against Muslims or the Islamic
religion. You are trying to interpret Sikhims as an anti-Islamic
movement which it was not. I wonder why Guru Nanak Dev ji spent a
large portion of his time travelling to the Middle East if Sikhism was
an anti-Islamic movement?

>What is Golmalkerite interpretation?
I don't know, but there have been many novel attempts on the part of
desbhagats to find the root of this conspiracy. The million $
question is who is behind the Foriegn Hand???? How did the Foriegn
Hand manage to get all the enemies of India together (China, Pakistan,
USA, Arab countries, Amnestry International, Asia Watch etc.) to wage
such war against India? Historians will ponder Mr. Akhtar's role in
East Punjab...maybe it was part of the Pakistani plot to subvert the
Sikhs from their religion and slowly make them Muslims. Mr. Akhtar's
music was so mesmerizing and it could have contained subliminal
messages! For some reason Mr. Akhtar's death coincides with Mr.
Bhagat's arrest and Gill leaving his job. Why? The Akhtar conspiracy
will outdo the JFK assasination as one of histories great mysteries.
(Now that Mr. Akhtar is gone I don't think Punjab will have to worry
about terrorist threats.)
Another job well done desbhagato. :-)

This is what I wrote and posted about Baba Jarnail Singh a while ago:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks to the propaganda of Hindustani media the
personality of Baba Jarnail Singh had become quite
enigmatic by 1983 for many people. Young Sikhs like myself
were quite intrigued by him. On the one hand Hindustani
media fed us spicy stories of Baba Jarnail Singh's murderous
activities and on the other hand many devout suche suche charhdi kala
waale Sikhs depicted a totally different picture of his personality.
A picture of a man with exceptional courage, immense kaumi dard and
unflinching honesty and integrity. The intrigue
factor was further multiplied by rumours allegedly spread by a section
of the Hindu population that Baba Jarnail Singh was an evil lascivious
man who had about 100 women in his captivity to satisfy his men's lust.
The academic curiosity to get a first hand glimpse of the man who had become
a hero for a large section of Sikh population and a villain for Indian
establishment and it's sympathisers took me to one of the informal
sessions of consultations and discusions which Baba Jarnail Singh used to have
with the sangat regularly and this is what I witnessed after a few minutes
of presence there:
Two ordinary young Sikhs with torn up shirts and roughed up hair
with turbans in their hands arrived there. They walked up to Baba
Jarnail Singh and asked him for his blessings.
Baba Jarnail Singh: tuhade kesa(n) nu kee hoyia? tusi dastara(n)
keyo(n) hatth vich pharia(n)?
One Young Sikh: ussi darbar sahib de darshana(n) vaaste aa rahe see.
CRPF walia(n) ne sannu phar liya tte kuttia eh.
Baba jarnail Singh: oh kinne see?
Young Sikh: koyee dass bara(n) honnge
Baba Jarnail Singh: tuhaade piyo ne kiya eh ke oh savva lakh naal
ik larraay ga tte tusi dussa(n) bara(n) to kutt
kha ke mere to(n) ashirvaad laynn aa gayye ho.
jaaow ehna dushta(n) daa osse tara(n) saamna
karo jidda(n) tuhaade bapu ne keha hai.
I have thought about this incident many times. It seems
feudal landlords with massive privileges leave their landless labour, whom
they want to control, exploit and whip at will, with no choice but to rebel.
Inequality and oppression are the fundamental reasons which give rise
to revolutions. Revolutionaries have nothing but their chains to lose.
It is probably for this reason that the first Sikh revolutionary
Guru Nanak Sahib said:
je jeeve patt lathi jaave
sabb haraam jetta kitchh khaay

@@@ By the way worst form of feudalism in Punjab pre-partition was
practised by Sikh landlords towards Muslim peasantry and the scheduled
caste farmhands in Composite Punjab. This lead to the movement for
Pakistan carried by the resentment of Punjabi Muslims who have long
memories of Sikh Shahi with women violated , mosques defiled and Muslim
peasantry exploited. Sikh landlordism in Punjab was courtesy of landgrants
from opium addict Ranjit Singh and British Huzoor who rewarded Sikhs for
their collobration with British Imperialism
Guru Nanak was not a orginal thinker in Indic tradition. He was preceded
in the same ideas by Buddha, Ramanand and Kabir. He followed the path laid
before him. Can you find some of his ideas different from Kabir? None@@@@@

Sorry mister.. its not goung to work. This is an age old ploy.. make
inflammatory remarks posing as a member of some ethnic group.. bait others
to flame back and using those get sympathy from that community..
age old trick used by all politicians.. you have a bright future..
now, makes me wonder.. How do I know you are a sikh for real ? You can't do
better work if you are a paki propagandist...
how much do you get paid for all this anyway ? judging by the volume you
spam in this network.. you can't be doing much else..
I'm sure you can relate to wanting to help those who are less fortunate as it
formed a central part of Guru Nanak's teachings.
Secondly, do you have any constructive suggestions on what ought to be done in
order to bring together Hindu's and Sikhs once again. Fortunately, the
mastermind of the 'carnage', HKL Bhagat has been charged. Do you think we will
be able to go back to the way things were prior to 1984?

If persons X and Y are both subjected to harassment, but only person Y
reacts to the harasment in an assertive manner, would you consider
person Y to be unusually aggressive or wrongful?

The difference is that during Partition, the level of killing and
maltreatment was matched by the opposing sides. During the "delhi
riots" the slaughter was one way. A look at statistics showing the
number killed and property lost, will show the Sikh community to be
the victims following IG's death, but in 1947, the amount of damage
was nearly equal on both sides.

That the animosity between Sikhs and Muslims has been exaggerated to a
ridiculous degree and that all Muslims are not gun-waving bigots
(contrary to popular belief.)
>Well, I'd like to add that Hindus were also murdered aimlessly, ie

The term desbhagat here on the net is used in a sarcastic manner,
often alluding to those who say things like
"nuke pakistan"
"Sikhs deserve the danda"
"India is fair to all"
These people probably hurt India more than they help.

I would love for things to go back to pre-1984 conditions. The
Hindu-Sikh animosity has been most unfortunate, but once mistrust
develops between two communities it is very difficult to return to the
original level of trust. Lets hope that cool heads prevail on both
sides.

>What does it say?
In baatcheet it has stated
*all amritdharis (roughly "baptized") Sikhs are potential terrorists
*Guru Gobind Singh was the starter of Sikh militancy (and consequently
the first terrorist)
Such a generalization about amritdharis has lead to their singling out
for harasment in Punjab. Various human rights org. have mentioned
that amritdharis are special targets of the Punjab police. Such a
policy is detrimental to India's secularism & unity , and only serves
to create resentment.

Welcome back, Vinod. Your name is Vinod, but you are completely

simple questions:
1. Have you read Gurbani? [You gotta do that before commenting on
Sikh principle.
2. What, for example, was Bhindranwale's crime? Facts only, please.
It is interesting that not a SINGLE deshbigot has EVER addressed
this. Rumors continue.
These two questions should keep you busy for a while, and perhaps
[I certainly HOPE] help you get out of your idiotic delusions.
Please get back to me with answers. Again, only facts. No opinions.

SO was your Sriram, Krishna running after GOpis and the
list is countless for ignoramus, self-indulgent pseudointellectual
like yourself.
About Nirankari Sikhs. You might want to ask Congress as to
why they were allowed to carry out their program outside
Golden Temple even though there was every indication that
this might lead to garbar.
And ask Nirankaris as to who was responsible for the shooting
on the same day?
As usual only looking at one side of the coin. Very typical of
a desh bigot.
I wonder how many patriotic SIKHS were pulled out of Buses
and killed? Would you like to site some incidents? I am sure
your GOI will provide you with enough evidence.
I wonder who was responsible for the killing of innocent
hindus? Should we only indulge in figer pointing or actually\present some
proofs.
But, BTW, you deshbigots are only good at accusing, I i remeber
correctly.

Feudalism has been prevalent in India in form or the other
for centuries. The bigotry that Brahmans perpetuated aginst
lower castes when it came to sharing common wells is still
present. But, alas, the desh bigots can only present cases
which serve their bigoted point of views.
Yes, wrong things have happened and no one is denying them.
Hindus did wrong things when they were in power and they
still continue to indulge in such wrong activities. If I may
be allowed to generalize as my friend anon and Shelly and raju
have been doing then Hindus are responsible for demolishing
Babri Masjid, Killing of innocent Muslims, 1984 pogrom
against SIKHs, the caste discrimination and the list is endless.
On the other hand Mulsims did their fare share of crime when the
Mughals were in power. So did SIKHS. But where are we heading
to by discussing these issues?
Maybe my anon freind, my worthy opponent like bigoted Shelly
Kochar, Rajiv varma would like to inform me.
I guess these are tactics to keep the real issues at bay.

Go read some as yet unsanitized and uncorrupted history, twit. The
persecution of Sikhs at the hands of Hindu bigots is as old
as Sikhism itself.

No. But NO, repeat _NO_ religion sanctions amassing weapons of mass destruction.
It is just your fanciful interpretation to suit your subversive intentions.
Period!. One dosen't need to be a scholar to see through your words. Hatred
and venom and greed and cruelty and selfishness and blind prejudice oozes out
of every letter you type. This can't be due to sikhism, the sikhs I know are
delightful, cheery, gentle people. Your problem is something else, I won't
blame it on the Gurbani.
To reply in your style, read geeta, the vedas, mahabharat, ramayana, quran,
bible and indian constitution and the UN charter completely before you open
your mouth again. Unless you can show proof you have done that, you should not
say another word. Now, if you would follow your own advise, _that_ should keep

He KILLED people, INNOCENT people. He wanted to SPLIT up this country. For you
these may be mere games. For deshbhakts, it is the biggest crime anyone can
commit. He deserved to die. A pity he could not be captured and hung in public.
The sikhs of punjab would have cheered the loudest. Do you have any idea how
ashamed most sikhs in india are that someone like that snake was born in their
community ? Even now their heads bow with shame, and people like YOU are the
reason. YOU are their biggest enemy, and all indians will do their best to
protect our sikh brothers from this cancer that threatens their homeland.
Mister, you are not the only sikh in the world. You are not representative of
anyone except yourself. I have many sikh friends who are very happy here and
prospering like the rest of us peaceful people. You are nothing but a homeless
orphan, who knows nothing but how to spew haterd and venom in his neighbourhood.

Look,
I understand that you do not consider Sikhism to be a part of Hinduism. Nor
am i suggesting that you change your religious views. All that I ask is that
you respect my religious beliefs as I respect yours. Just as you can cite
phrases from Gurbani that support your view, I can also cite phrases from the
Gita, Rama Krishna PArhamsa, and Swami Vivekananda that support mine.
Incidentally, I believe that in time, both views will converge.

Has it ever occured to you to try and understand my religious beliefs, to know

lead to the same one God, and that all Gods were mere different forms of the

Raju
: Oh well...
Raju,
For myself, I have always refrained from preaching to Hindus, Muslims
Christians and so on, partly because it is none of my business what they
should believe in, and partly because I have no intention to indulge
in mindfuck or talking about something that I do not know about well
enough. What I have problems with is your superciliuosly condescending
attitude when you preach to Sikhs about what Sikhism says. Hear it again:
you know NOTHING about Sikhism, because you have not read any Gurbani.
In view of this, as I have done on many earlier occasions, I invite you to
shut the hell up. Thank you.

How come preaching to Sikhs is such a high priority for you, then?

Did I EVER comment on your beliefs? Having had quite a few experiences,
I have some idea where you come from. Again, we see you preaching about
what Sikhism says. [read your last line above.]
Raju, HOW MANY TIMES do I have to tell you to refrain from pontificating
on Sikhism without reading Gurbani? Why the hell don't you understand?
I am sorry to have to be so blunt and impolite, but there seems to be
no way of making you listen to reason. Again, to remind you, I have to
repeat a few things:
1. Before talking about Sikhism, kindly make sure you know about it.
Which means go read Gurbani and some Sikh history. Withou doing that,
you will be doing exactly what you accuse me of [something I never
indulged in, BTW].
2. Before you pontificate about recent and current events and processes
in Punjab, kindly get informed.
3. Before claiming outrageous things and accusing people of crimes and
all other sorts of filth that you do, kindly make sure you are
not lying and are in fact speaking based on facts.
For example, before barking about Bhindranwale, kindly cite ONE shred
of evidence about his alleged crimes.
BTW, these points go to all the deshbigots, including the Varmoid
baander sena.

Rajwinder Singh.

IMHO Mr. Aggarwal is not a "desbhagat" but I would like to add
Desbhagats:
4. Before making ridiculous claims (Guru Gobind Singh ji was a Mughal
pensioner) bring your sources or some reliable statistics.
5. Please know the basic facts before engaging in your
pointifications. (A desbhagat asked me how Punjab could secede from
India, since it is in central India :-))
6. When someone asks you to cite your source (this goes for anonymy
and Coomar) please tell us your sources.
7. Don't label all Sikhs in one group.
8. Don't justify crimes like the Delhi riots or rape of Sikh women.
You only show your own level of mental perversion when you do so.

you can't hold the whole country responsible for the actions of a few

And most of the sikhs (i have not been to punjab, so these people are those

bhindranwala. Most of them were angry with IG too, but they did'nt have any

Yes, that is exactly where Vinod is, in the midst of reality,
in India. He is not barking loudly, smoke and fire spewing all

Any relation out here???? Yup, no one is denying that SIKHS are

But can that be used to ignore the fact what govt. did to Punjab and what

As usual. Playing the same game that GOI did when they labelled
all SIKHS from Punjab asking for rightful portion of their
water , electricity and land as secessionists in nature. SIkhs are
angry because the Punjab problem has lingered on for quite some
while without any solution and all you guys do is accuse and point
fingers at each other. Yes, everyone of you.
Accusing us of paki propoganda just because we are angry at how
GOI has fucked up Punjab. When was the last time when you
guys accepted that actually it was GOI who was responsible for
this.
Go on

The first thing to do about Punjab "problem" is to get irrelevant
assholes like you and *vinod* schmucker to shut the hell up -- they
never been to Punjab, they don't matter to Punjab. They are IRRELEVANT and
they should shut up and better yet drop dead.

"HAte mongering" is very subjective. I am yet to see anyone cite a
single line of hate-mongering post I have written. Cite me, idiot.

Well, shut up about Punjab, to begin with. Second, cite my posts where
I di hate-mongering.
The simple fact is that you deshbigots simply hate me ad others like me who
have families i Punjab, who have lived in Punjab most of their lives. OTOH,
you fools have done only one thing -- using Punjab as a fantasy for your
mental jerkoff. When was the last time, for example, I meddled in Bengalis'
affairs, idiot?

As usual jumping the gun when they cannot indulge in ration discussion.
Just as GOI did when they wanted to play with Punjab. Sikhs were
asking fro water, electricity and Chandigarh and GOi was talking
and perpetuation the notion of SIKHS showing seccessionist traits.
Similarly, Vinod Baboo, indulging in the famous pass time that has
become some sort of a trademark for bigoted loosers.
VInod Sahib, I challange you to show where and when Rajwinder ever
talk about Khalistan. Did he even raise the demand for Khalsitan??
Or this is your concoction???

I have to agree to some extent out here. There is no need for
automatic weapons to be gathered in Guruudwaraas. If it comes to
prtecting ourselves I am sure SIKHS can do very well by fighting
outside gurudwaras. I still believe in the strength and courage
that Guru Gobind Singh has passed on to us. we took the hit
in 1984 but we are up again and even stronger.

As for citing you, just go back and read all your mails. Each one of them is

But we still have our roots rajwi, (that was certainly no trick insult, i

You don't intent to call india your home country do you ? Don't be such a

If you do not yet know what bhindran's crime is, you will never learn. One can
wake up a sleeping man, but not one who is pretending to be asleep. Killing
people, subverting national integrity, amassing arms don't these sound like
crimes to you ?, and please don't drag gurbani into this.. i have a lot of
respect for the sikh religion, don't spread the idea that sikhism is
synonymous with terrorism. Can you imagine what a stranger reading these posts
will think when you make statements like 'gurbani sanctions carrying of
weapons, even if they are hand grenades and AK-47s'?. People like you hurt the
cause of sikhs more than anyone else.

:]you want is emotional orgasms. Punjab is currently your favorite fantasy.
:]You DON'T make a shit of a diference, loser.
Neither do you mister. And this is of course your favourite stuff.. to say
anything about punjab, one has to have lived there all one's life, read the
entire punjab literature, all religious books of sikhism.. i wonder whether
even you qualify. Atleast I live in india, with the current realities of this
place. I meet my sikh friends who occasionaly go home to punjab and come back
and report it is no longer a crime for a boy to give a lift to a girl, that a
girl wearing a short skirt in ludhiana is no longer ostracised or become a
potential victim of the terrorists. What about you mister ? what claims can
you make to knowing the ground realities in punjab today ? reading gurbani and
understanding what punjab needs are 2 different things altogether.

Ha ! atlast, you _do_ admit there are sikhs who don't consider bhindran as the

punjab is yu are just a harmless garden snake. Talk about armchair terrorists..

Sorry mister, I have more claim to this land than you do. punjab is a part of
MY country that I love. For you punjab is just a means for power. You think
you will be someone in this world if only you and your likes can steal a chunk
from india and the punjabis. Sorry, punjab belongs with us, we ain't gonna let
anyone loot our country anymore.
Yes, I am emtional. Threats against this country that I call motherland, where
I live in, are not some arcade games that I can be cool and calculated about.
May be if I had been a traitor to my own people and opted to spend the rest of
my life as a second class citizen in some western nation, I too would have
had so much fun out of trashing india the way you do, though I doubt i can get
that perverted.

Just try to reflect on what an image you are giving the people of punjab.
Terrorist, Joker, sure hope no one takes you for an average indian, or

The reaction of most Indians to what the Cong(I) did was either apathy
or tacit support. Most people felt the "Sikhs had it coming." In
fact, Mr. Bhagat won by a margin of 500,000 in his locality right
after the riots.

Can you explain what you mean by "I" in the last sentence? Do you mean Punjabi
people? Because or else the statement looks illogical.
The question should be
"When did a Punjabi meddle in an affair of other state"?
Come and see the situation in Assam, you will probably get a answer.

I have to agree with you here. In Sikhsim, when the need to carry
arms was felt SIKHS did carry arms. The debate to carry arms can
go on for ever. I felt there was every need to have weapon in our
home during 1984. People who were caught in the buses or on the
roads during 1984 riots surely would have felt a lot safer if they
had been carrying some arms. On the other hand when I go to work
I don't see the need to carry automatic weapons.
Unfortunately, every society can be divided on the basis of religion.
Now, we never view the ISRAELS right to exit and bare amrs as any
matter of grave concern. As a matter of fact the very fact that
ISRAEL is a mainly Jewish settlement and their right to exist is
not viewed as a religious survival but as the survival of a nation.
Is it wrong? The situation in ISRAEl can viewed as
a) Jews carrying arms to protect their religious freedom and their
rights surrounded by Muslims. Here the ISRAELI army can viewed
as individual jews carrying arms to protect themselves from
Muslims.
b) Israelis bearing arms to defend their rights from any act of
aggression from outsider. This is a very common scene where
countries build up army like anything to protect themselves.
What is the most generaly accepted reason over here. Can these
two reasons be seperated? If not then the right of ISRAELIS to
carry arms is as wrong as the right of HINDUS, SIKHS or
MULSIMS to carry arms. If that is the case then why is INDIA
supporting ISRAEL now???
There is no limit. The limit is what the society wants to define
it as. The limit is what you think is reasonable according to
you. Limit is not absolute based on what I have mentioned. There
will be a time when carry missile launchers will be expected
based on how and where this world is going.
In your argument you have pointed out only one scenerio by
bringing in religious leaders. There are multiple other options
also.
Things that I have seen happening in INDIA, e.g.
a) 1984 riots perpetuated against one community by the elected
government of the country
b) Destruction of Babri Masjid with the consent of govt.
Where the govt. is deliberately commiting crimes against other
communities, I don't see how you have only chosen to point
fingers at only religious leaders.

It is unfortunate that the demand for water and electricity by
the people of Punjab has been labelled by the GOI as a demand
for a seperate country by the SIKHS. When the Anadpur Sahib
resolution was first introduced there was no demand for Khalistan
or even seperate country. Only couple of people at that time
e.g. Balbir Singh Sandhu and Jagjit Singh Chauhan were talking
about Khalsitan. I have yet to read any news report where anyone
can quote me any AKALI or even Bhindranwala for that matter can
be quoted , asking for Khalistan.
The demands were very simple and could have been easily resolved
but alas the GOI played its politics, let the situation go out of
hand.
Just like you carry these notions that have been fed to you by
govt. propoganda the whole of INDIA is in the same boat. It is not
SIKHS fault but GOI and the whole of INDIA's fault that has
neglected the PUNJAB.
