Many vietnamese buddhist monks self-immolated in public because of serious religious persecution. Had 0 effect. Cf suicide bombing...

The many cryptos and converts in high positions in india are madame nhu wannabes. Wonder how many clapped when hindus barbecued in godhra

Amazing what neo converts are capable of. Knew mme nhu hated buddhists ('barbecue'), didnt know she was convert. Cf to psec saint convert

Somewhat related: Justice Markandeya Katju of Supreme Court says, in a public lecture, "Muslim rulers deliberately projected as intolerant". He "attributed simmering Hindu-Muslim tensions to a deliberate rewriting of history to project Muslim rulers as intolerant and bigoted, whereas ample evidence existed to show the reverse was true."
Mr Justice Katju actually heaped praise on Tipu Sultan!

Great Britain is a strange country. It has no written constitution but a rigid class system. The lawyers wear wigs in court and there are no citizens, just subjects.

British soldiers are fighting for democracy in Afghanistan and Libya, and they fought for it in Iraq. But at home, they defend the absurdly undemocratic idea that nobody but a Windsor can be head of state.

Hullo, what's this?

No mainstream Indian newspaper with a Hindu perspective on news. Now no internet niche for them as well?

I suppose a government that gave itself the tools to ram Hindi down everyone's throat can get away with this also.
