		<description>Ur ability to read me retard douglas astonishes me. Sorry for the use of that politically incorrect word. I was not justifying violence. 1984 riots were terrible infact. I have sikh relatives living in canada who tell me of this story. yes a hindu can have sikh relatives. Im not a stupid rss agent like you childish &quot;khalistaninain&quot; sikhs say.  But khalistanis killed hindus thats what the documentary didn&#039;t show and the fact that everyday there was a bomb blast in punjab. go to www.punjabtrauma.org done by a sikh. narrating the turbulent years during militancy in punjab. Bhindrawala was not a saint, this was highlighted by longowal when he quoted bundrawala saying to &quot;kill members of a certain community&quot;with bikes and &quot;ak47 wales&quot;. It is evident that you are another e-khalistan soldier who makes up multiple user names and says they are true sikhs online lol. 

Nita singh, i suggest you go back to reading the Guru Granth Sahib again as once again, you have proven yourself not worthy of the title &quot;singh&quot;</description>

As a sikh I say: &quot;the program sucks&quot;. Raj.B what is a bahman and a gud ?

		<description>To sunny :As a bahman hindu. I thought the program was pretty gud. Bindrawale however was portrayed in the correct way. What else were u going to portray him as? Mahatma bindrawale &quot;ahimsa&quot;. And its funny that the dal khalsa thought he lukd like binladen.  Even i thought that. Because of his evil look and the ak47.  The documentary was pro khalistani. It never showed the hindu victims of 1980s.  Sunny i recommend u go to www.punjabtrauma.org its a site teling us of the khalistanin rampage across punjab. Whats more, The blog was done by a sikh.  I think u should complain to utube (as u are a well knwn sikh figure) about the brainwashing khalistan vids.  Furthermore i like many other hindu punjabis pay homage to all 10gurus i even listen to shabads and chaupai sahib. So how can khalistanis say we are anti sikh? 1 criticism 4 sikh channel. They had a discussion abt khalistan a so called argument. But it was 1 sided sukhi bart had a group of youth. Who wer al in favour of khalistan. Hmm is that a argument? Then they had srai the khalistani spokesman. Each time  he talkd abt riots of 84 he went onto the jews and at 1 point he was told in polite words by sukhi to shut up and and get to the point. And the worst thing is, the youths are bein emotionaly black mailed. Mst sikhs i knw arent pro khalistani. And all of them are jatt except my indian born amritdhari  mates. Who stil isnt a khalistani. So why is the british govt alowing them to glorify b.khalsa and btf? Anger and lust are wounds to the soul. Sggs and when other means fail its righteous to raise the sword. 10th master of sikh dharam. Im writing those quotes because the khalistanis manipulate them  to justify terrorism.  So my question to the khalistinians is : what have u gained by demanding kstan? Was it worth 84 riots? And how can u justify air india 182?</description>

		<description>There&#039;s a timely talk on the more recent genocide of another of India&#039;s minorities , the Muslims of Gujurat in 2002


Title: &quot;We have no orders to save you&quot;: Remembering Gujarat 
Speaker: Syed Haider
Date and time: 12th March 2010 6.45-8.30pm
Venue: 45 Abrar House, Crawford Place, London W1h 4LP (nearest tube is Edgware Road) 

This talk looks to locate what happened in Gujarat in 2002 within the broader narrative of terrorism. The talk will suggest that by doing this one can challenge the present discourse on terrorism and its narrow focus on individuals, peripheral organisations and rogue states to dispel what Pilger has identified as the taboo about ever linking democracies to terrorism. What is more, the speaker will identify culture as the all pervasive matrix through which a resistance can be mounted to this type of madness occurring again.

Syed Haider is an English teacher at Vyners High School in Uxbridge and is currently pursuing a PhD on Muslim Modernities in Indian Cultural Production at the School of Oriental and African Studies. He is the founder of Khayal.org.uk a web-based forum interested in studying the sociology of social change.    

All welcome. Free Entrance and no need to pre book. For further information contact Rabia at rabia.malik.cc@gmail.com or 07733932134

Human Rights Watch

&#039;We Have No Orders To Save You&#039;

State Participation and Complicity in Communal Violence in Gujarat

APRIL 30, 2002
State officials of Gujarat, India were directly involved in the killings of hundreds of Muslims since February 27 and are now engineering a massive cover-up of the state&#039;s role in the violence, Human Rights Watch charged in a new report released today. The Indian parliament is scheduled today to debate the situation in Gujarat, and may vote to censure the Indian government for its handling of the violence. The police were directly implicated in nearly all the attacks against Muslims that are documented in the 75-page report, &#039;We Have No Orders to Save You&#039;: State Participation and Complicity in Communal Violence in Gujarat. In some cases they were merely passive observers. But in many instances, police officials led the charge of murderous mobs, aiming and firing at Muslims who got in the way. Under the guise of offering assistance, some police officers led the victims directly into the hands of their killers. Panicked phone calls made to the police, fire brigades, and even ambulance services generally proved futile.

		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>There&#8217;s a timely talk on the more recent genocide of another of India&#8217;s minorities , the Muslims of Gujurat in 2002</p>
<p>Title: &#8220;We have no orders to save you&#8221;: Remembering Gujarat<br />
Speaker: Syed Haider<br />
Date and time: 12th March 2010 6.45-8.30pm<br />
Venue: 45 Abrar House, Crawford Place, London W1h 4LP (nearest tube is Edgware Road) </p>
<p>This talk looks to locate what happened in Gujarat in 2002 within the broader narrative of terrorism. The talk will suggest that by doing this one can challenge the present discourse on terrorism and its narrow focus on individuals, peripheral organisations and rogue states to dispel what Pilger has identified as the taboo about ever linking democracies to terrorism. What is more, the speaker will identify culture as the all pervasive matrix through which a resistance can be mounted to this type of madness occurring again.</p>
<p>Syed Haider is an English teacher at Vyners High School in Uxbridge and is currently pursuing a PhD on Muslim Modernities in Indian Cultural Production at the School of Oriental and African Studies. He is the founder of Khayal.org.uk a web-based forum interested in studying the sociology of social change.    </p>
<p>All welcome. Free Entrance and no need to pre book. For further information contact Rabia at <a href="mailto:rabia.malik.cc@gmail.com">rabia.malik.cc@gmail.com</a> or 07733932134</p>

Human Rights Watch</p>
<p>&#8216;We Have No Orders To Save You&#8217;</p>
<p>State Participation and Complicity in Communal Violence in Gujarat</p>
<p>APRIL 30, 2002<br />
State officials of Gujarat, India were directly involved in the killings of hundreds of Muslims since February 27 and are now engineering a massive cover-up of the state&#8217;s role in the violence, Human Rights Watch charged in a new report released today. The Indian parliament is scheduled today to debate the situation in Gujarat, and may vote to censure the Indian government for its handling of the violence. The police were directly implicated in nearly all the attacks against Muslims that are documented in the 75-page report, &#8216;We Have No Orders to Save You&#8217;: State Participation and Complicity in Communal Violence in Gujarat. In some cases they were merely passive observers. But in many instances, police officials led the charge of murderous mobs, aiming and firing at Muslims who got in the way. Under the guise of offering assistance, some police officers led the victims directly into the hands of their killers. Panicked phone calls made to the police, fire brigades, and even ambulance services generally proved futile. Several witnesses reported being told by police: &#8220;We have no orders to save you.&#8221;</p>

		<description>A very un-balanced documentry. 

If many people could understand Sant Jarnail Singh Ji Bhindranwale&#039;s speaches... (Including Sonia Deol) She would understand the pain and torture the sikhs went through prior to the attack on the golden temple. 

Operation bluestar was a segment of the attack on the sikhs... operation woodrose was another attack on sikh citizens that took place after operation bluestar. Why were sikhs attacked AGAIN after operation bluestar? If bhindranwale was the main person of the problem... why would the Indian Government continue to attack the sikh nation with another operation called operation woodrose? Why we&#039;re telephone lines disconnected across India during 1984? Why wasnt the outside media allowed to enter India to obtain information?

Ask yourselves these questions. 

Clearly this was an attack on the sikh nation.. a minority... and it was NOT to kill one individual. 

May god bring peace upon the sikhs and may every family who suffered in the hands of Indra Gandhi&#039;s government recieve justice.</description>

Kashmiri Pandits came down to ask for help from Guru Teg Bhadur Ji as theyï»¿ found not even ONE hindu capable of saving them.

They made promises that if Guru Ji saved them they will convert to to Sikhism did they convert?</description>

		<description>Forum members, 

Clearly as the discussion with Nita Singh demonstrates, the Khalistanis here, when not erecting strawmen to knock down or going ad hominem on others who challenge their views, seem to do very little else!</description>

Deep ji your questions are valid, and my family too thinks, that the notion of Khalistani is based on illogical math and raw emotion. As to your questions, I&#039;ll shoot them latter. Deep ji, what is your education background if you don&#039;t mind answering the question --&gt; Remember they is no gun pointing at your head, to answer ha ha ha. Take care, Mr journalist and if I don&#039;t answer your question, It means I don&#039;t have an answer to your journalistic questions and can&#039;t rebuttal, your statements on this blog. I&#039;ll bring down my Khalistani flag an up man ship the indian flag. Deep ji, your blogs are very educational.</description>

		<description>I presume these are the witty â€˜one-linersâ€™ that your comrade â€˜Kalistanâ€™ Singh was admiring.  

Nita Ji, you are simply proving my point, when faced with a reasoned argument / point of view you are unable to address, you feel the need to either go ad hominem or construct strawmen arguments, still giving you the benefit of doubt, now that you&#039;ve had you dose of fun and games, let&#039;s try to share some thoughts.

You made reference earlier to the freedom of speech you benefit from by living â€œin a western society, instead of the middle east were the head gets cut off or india, where I might get charged for disturbing the peace between Hindus and sikhs and spend 25 years in the jail before my trialâ€.

I wholly concur that freedom of speech is indeed a crucial concept and one that is permitted today (for the most part) to those who reside in secular countries, in view of which, I would like to ask you and â€˜Kalistanâ€™ Singh the following:

According to Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale, the concept of Miri Piri â€œemphasises the theological separateness of Sikhs and thereby their political separatenessâ€ (see Joyce Pettigrew, In Search of the New Kingdom of Lahore).  

This same paper highlights the origins of what many claim set the scene for events leading up to 1984 and demands for autonomy â€“ the Partition of 1947, where Sikhs being cut off from their cultural neighbours (the Punjabi Muslims of West Punjab) became part of a new independent India in which they were seen as part of the wider Hindu tradition in a new country which nonetheless â€œespoused secularism andâ€¦ saw religion as backward â€“ as a force a modern mind would not acknowledgeâ€ a view which was viewed cautiously by the Sikh elite at the time but later came to embody much of Sant Jiâ€™s speeches, in which he would frequently challenge those Sikhs employed by the State and in particular those with significant business interests outside the Punjab as having lifestyles incompatible with that of the Panth.

Ultimately Sant Ji felt secularism was a notion alien to the Sikh Miri Piri tradition as he understood it.

Question (1) In your view, how do you reconcile the notion, and more importantly, practice of the Miri-Piri tradition (as espoused by Sant Ji and several Khalistani ideologues) with your life in a secular country?  

The concept of the Panth (or â€˜communityâ€™) is not a â€œspatial entityâ€ unlike Judaism, where there is an established relationship between land, people and territory, the Panth on the other hand is the collective of those who believe in the Sikh faith and is more cosmopolitan / universal in its scope.

Question (2): Since there is no underlying case to support notions of â€˜peoplehoodâ€™ or â€˜nationalityâ€™ for the Sikh Panth, theologically or otherwise, how do you validate your claims over Punjab or support for what ultimately is the nationalistic Khalistani movement?</description>
