Fwd: White Supremacy Becomes Official Against People Of Indian Origin

---------- Forwarded message ----------
From: Rajiv Malhotra

White Supremacy Becomes Official Against People Of Indian Origin     The first half of the 20th century was the period when the United Stated of America pass Federal laws that were explicitly racist against all people of Indian origin. The US Supreme Court passed a judgment that Indians were non-White, and hence not eligible to get US citizenship. Many Indians had become prosperous landowners and had to forfeit their land. Immediately thereafter, the US Senate and Congress passed a law that 70% of all new immigrants would be from England, Germany and Ireland, and none would be Asians, especially Indians. It was only in the era of President Johnson that African Americans succeeded in passing Civil Rights Laws that ended blatant and legalized racism in the US. As a result of these breakthroughs won by Blacks, the Immigration Bill of 1965 overturned the old bans on Indian immigration. This is what opened the gates for Indians to migrate the USA. Considering how recent this history is, and how much oppression the people of Indian origin faced, it is shocking that this chapter of American history is hardly ever taught. Few NRIs even know this background.   Watch On YouTube: CLICK Watch On Facebook: CLICK   Please watch and post your comments on Facebook/YouTube.   For more information on Shefali's work, please visit https://janoed.com and https://www.facebook.com/janohistory   To help us continue this innovative and provocative alternative to mainstream media please donate to our tax-exempt foundation in USA or in India: DONATE   Regards, Rajiv Facebook: @RajivMalhotra.Official YouTube: RajivMalhotraOfficial Twitter: @RajivMessage

Quick notes: Hybrid plane, Spewing power plants...

• Hybrid electric plane: The turbine powering the generator will run on jet fuel and provide power for the electric engine. Any excess power from the generator will be stored in banks of batteries in the fore and aft holds with the stored energy to be used during take-off and landing... Similar to the Serial Hybrid architecture in Chevy Volt.





• Surround Delhi with a deep ring of forests: Not only will this modify the weather within the city, but the forest will absorb a major portion of airborne dust from across the Thar Desert and from Pakistan. Without afforestation, even if you take all cars off road, it would just scratch the surface of Delhi's smog.



• Pollution from power plants: The worst of this pollution runs from north of Patna in the state of Bihar to south of Raipur in the state of Chhattisgarh.




• BJP feeds the hostile media: Modi govt spent Rs 3,755 crore on publicity blitz - 1,656 crore on electronic media and Rs 1,698 crore on print media. The govt's allocation for pollution abatement in the last three years has been only Rs 56.8 crore.



• Marxist-Leninist-Maoist: Left alliance sweeps Nepal elections, Oli set to return as Nepal PM



• Oneness:




• Satya Nadella's off-break: Microsoft's Redmond campus to have a cricket field.



• You are being programmed: Facebook and others had succeeded by exploiting a vulnerability in human psychology... Facebook lies about its ability to influence individuals based on the data it collects on them.



• Sri Rama Setu is man-made:

A 27-year old Bangladeshi man has survived his bungled attempt to detonate a suicide bomb in the New York subway system:

http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/nypd-fbi-swarm-brooklyn-home-suspect-port-authority-attack-article-1.3691267



The bomber's family have generated some backlash with some ill-thought remarks:

Quick notes: Indian drone, Microwave weapon...

• A drone from an Indian Start-Up: Can achieve an altitude of "at least 65,000 feet". NewSpace Research and Technologies did all research and development in-house, which is being validated by Boeing.



• Microwave weapon: The U.S. has microwave weapons that could dismantle North Korean missiles by firing microwave energy to interfere with ground controls and power circuits within the missiles themselves.



• “It was all theater”: Pentagon-backed Kurdish commander confirms U.S. made secret deal with ISIS to let thousands of fighters flee Raqqa... Russia has long accused the U.S. of being supportive of ISIS and other jihadi groups



• Israeli startup helping bring kirana stores online: Seemba is a mobile phone-based platform that helps businesses build their websites, giving the country’s 51 million kirana stores an online identity through a website.



• You remember more of what you read out loud: Hearing your own voice boosts the likelihood that it will stick to your memory. This trick can be used not just by students but adults and seniors working on recall



• Sand to soil: China's success in reversing desertification.




• A legitimate Tesla rival: The Jaguar I-Pace signals the beginning of the end of Tesla’s hegemony in the premium, high-performance electric vehicle market.



• A world with fewer cars: Volkswagen thinks its ride-sharing electric minibus will take 1 million cars off the road



• Future generation: Babies' brains at risk from toxic pollution



• Religion in politics :

As long as the law differentiates you based on your religion it is suicidal not to mix religion and politics because you then expose yourself to tyranny. https://t.co/3T9OyvMdZL

China Doing a Kargil, Occupying Doklam Posts

China appears to be doing what Pakistan did in Kargil - they're occupying the winter posts vacated by Bhutan:

Logically, they may likely do this for all theie border posts with India, too - since those provide more immediate advantage to them.
