You are correct. Sonia Maino is famous for doing this - first deliberately malign or insult the hindus and hinduism, and 'step' in pretending to save teh day (probably with a contemptuous smug smile on her face). This tactic is actually an old christian strategy used on conversion. First te missionaries would deliberately foster diseases and illness in a society, and then step with some medicines, to cure the disease and in the process convert the victim by pretending it was jesus's 'healing touch'.
