SIMI and the cult of the Kalashnikov

Praveen Swami

Don't be misled by the title or by the pseudo-investigative
journalism. It all boils to, what else, blaming the Hindus, the
country etc. for all the imaginary and imagined ills of the
"minority".

See, how Chindu interprets minority discontent:

"SIMI's polemic appealed to the growing class of lower-middle classand middle-class urban men who felt cheated of their share of thegrowing economic opportunities opening up in India. Hit by communalbias and educational backwardness, this class of disenfranchised youthwas drawn to SIMI's attacks on Hindu polytheism and western decadence.The organisation's claims that there could be no justice for Muslimsin any system other than a Shariah-based order resonated withcommunities battered by decades of communal violence, often backed bythe Indian state."

Some Muslims find themselves backward. So, attack "Hindu polytheism"!
Many Muslims don't go to school, because Hindus worship many gods!!

Finally find a nice scapegoat and finish the sermon:

"Fighting SIMI, it is clear, will take more than arrest warrants andintelligence work: a coherent strategy to clean up the toxic politicallandscape from which it arose is desperately needed."

The anti-Hindu (and pseudo-secular) trait of Chindu is exposed in the following detailed article:

This blog is doing a great job in exposing Chindu's hypocrisy. Looking at the posts here even a blind man can conclude that there is method to Chindu's Marxist madness. Now if only the good folks of Madras/Chennai will respond by cancelling their subscription and let this sanctimonious meatball Naxal Ram retire to Shanghai forever.
