hindus killes in punjab
by on Jul 27, 2007 02:05 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

Either some people here are too young and have learnt history only thru propaganda, or just plain bigots. I see them saying that terrorism only started after '84. Gimme a break. I still have very clear memories of news where Hindus were selectively killed in buses, villages etc. in Pinjab way before. 84. It was so frequent that in few years newspapers (we had Hindustan Times then) even stopped reporting it as front page news. I had Hindu classmates in Delhi who had fled Punjab. About 84 riots, I still remember all our upper middle class neighbourhood protecting sikh neighbours. 84 happened in part because of congress, and I do not see any hindu justifying it here. But I do not see any sikh whole heartedly condemning our PM's assasnation and supporting BlueStar. I disagree with Hindus who say sikhs are our brothers, no they are a millitant religion with no power or intention or accumen of spiritual inspection. And as fas as protectors of Hindus, phew, read history!

exactly my point! I do not see Hindus saying sikhs got what they deserved , but no sikh says killing Indira was wrong. Or even Air India blast was wrong. Or maybe there are not many like KPS Gill online. Read B Raman's article above "They showed how earnestly Indira Gandhi tried to avoid having to send the Army into the Golden Temple ". If there are criminals in Golden Temple, they have to be flushed out. Same holds for any other place of worship, be it a Hindu Temple.

Yes,Indra gandhi ordered Blue star, but she is tye one who created, supported Brindranwale the monster which in the end went against Indra gandhi herself.
There are lot of sikhs who supported blue star operation and operation Black thunder by Rajiv Gandhi.
The vey aim of Khalsa is to protect hindu dharma from Muslim invaders. But they are confused by the systematic false propaganda of British, Muslims and later by our secularists.Thats precisely the reason for them to turn against Hindu religion and India.

About Hindus getting killed daily is no doubt true and is a terrible memory we all have. But dont blame all Sikhs for it. And dont excuse Indira Gandhi's role in the trouble. The Sikhs are a great people (Hindus have their bad elements too) and are our brothers. They are brave, have the biggest hearts one can have, and unlike we Hindus can laugh at themselves and make jokes about themselves. Please dont encourage such divisive thoughts anymore for it will hurt the very Hindus and India that you identify with. Let us look towards a glorious future instead and let the past be the past.

Truth is different from FACTS. History is a record book of facts and incidents. But TRUTH lies burried under. Whatever RAMAN has released are some facts about what happened. Just some incidents. Truth is different and the underlying cause.

Do not forget that the sikhs too fought the muslims for the hindus right from the partition days!
