Your message is irrelevant. So it got deleted. And I do not think making mr. Advani the PM would make any difference.

Kata Dhon, Your concerns are relevant on facts. JGN may not have realised it. 1) The total disrespect with which Shia places of extreme importance, such as the Karbala shrine were blasted by Sunni extremists in Iraq is a matter of huge concern. American forces were indifferent to the kidnapping and torture of Shias (60% of Iraq's population) but they went on fighting the Al-Sadr's Shia militia. My guess is they wanted to make peace with the Sunni militia, especially, in Anbar province, so that Sunnis will join the Shia President to form a stable govt. in Iraq. 2) In Pakistan, annually, at least three to four hundred Shias are killed by Sunni extremists. Govt. of Pakistan is suspicious of Shias for its top secret recruitments in entities such as ISI. Anecdotal evidence only. There is some job-discrimination against Shias at many levels in Pak. 3) Saddam Hussein, who was not a Shia, I am told, was encouraged to fight with Shia Iran by Saudi Arabia, Sudan and Egypt. The war lasted eight years of intense fighting. Lots of money and materials came from Saudi Arabia. 4) In Yeman, the govt., which is Sunni is trying to convert or kill off a Shia minority. 5) Some of the second-ranking BJP officials are, I am told, Shia. They stand every chance of not only becoming ministers but deciding on BJP's policies in the future. Many muslim cadre members of the BJP, I am told, are of Shia origin, some Ahmadiyas. All this is only anecdotal.
