One sided explanation
by M.Akhtar on Jul 19, 2006 08:54 PM

Both the IB and Mr.Dhar suffers from bias and simplistic explanation of post 9/11scenario.Islamist Jehad is America-centric because of Iraq and Middle East policy of USA.USA has been a target long before 9/11. However for India real jehad started in 1993 with the don Dawood Ibrahim, which was a sequel to Shiv sena politics and massacre of muslims in Bhiwandi and Mumbai in 1992.Dhar will fail to cite a single muslim jehad or retalition before 1992 despite numerous riots since independence where thousands of muslim were killed.Gujarat and Godhra as well as BJP rule POTA. have all contributed to this cause. Unless we tackle the fear psychosis from idian muslim mind, such jehad will gain momentum from ISI, Salafi, Muslim brotherhood etc.
