2002 was a PRE-PLANNED genocide- a successful implementation of Hindutva terr0r plot that was in the making for months. Gujarat was a Hindu laboratory as claimed by the Hindutva leaders & state was prepped to erupt on cue. In fact, Independent agencies had warned about VHP/RSS +
2. Bajrang Dal holding weekly congregations where trishuls/swords were distributed & martial training was imparted, at least 6 months before the genocide. As the state was burning, the entire infrastructure was battle ready– Magistrates/cops simply watched, Fire brigades didn't +
3. come for help, hospitals turned away Muslim patients. People/houses disappeared, overnight roads were laid where once Muslims lived, & Hindu temples came up at the place of mosques. The mobs didn't just have lists of Muslim households, they also had database of Muslim appts+
4. in mixed housing societies & even businesses that carried Hindu names but had invisible Muslim investments. The amount of swords, weapons, manpower & deadly chemicals used prove that all this was a result of a systematic planning, not an outburst after Godhra as claimed.

This is a farmers protest, not just a Sikh protest. However, even if we narrow our focus & compare - Islam is not a monolith, Sikhism is. Sikhs are one unified community, connected not just by religion, but also by language & land unlike Muslims. Keralite Muslim has nothing in +
2. common with UP Muslim, except religion. Not just language, they wouldn't even have a common topic to discuss. Importantly, 80% of Punjab is under cultivation & most of Sikhs are 1st/2nd or 3rd gen farmers & have someone in their immediate/near family associated to farming+
3. or agro industry even if they themselves don't live in Punjab . They are still connected & have an attachment to the land so this issue is close to their heart. Also need to note, Sikhs haven't been dehumanised like Muslims. No doubt they have suffered immensely in 1984+

Nazi Propaganda Ministry in 1933 got editors & journalists to register with Reich Press Chamber to follow the mandate & instructions handed down by the ministry. The Nazis had editors omit anything “calculated to weaken the strength of the Reich.” The Propaganda Ministry totally+
2.controlled the content of news & editorial pages through daily instructions given by Party propaganda offices. Detailed guidelines were issued on which stories could or could not be reported & how to report any news in country. Journalists or editors who failed to follow these+
3.instructions were fired or, if believed to be harmful to the Reich, sent to concentration camp. Rather than suppressing news, Nazi propaganda apparatus tightly controlled its flow & interpretation. Indian media is similar but far easier to control, they are already radicalised.

Perpetrator of Ghallughara 1984 should never be forgotten. Operation Bluestar was planned & designed by Indira Gandhi to kill maximum Sikhs. Majority of those who were killed were pilgrims not connected with the political agitation, gathered to commemorate one of the important +
2. day in Sikh calendar. Operation Woodrose followed Bluestar, a genocidal wave of state terrorism that resulted in arrest, torture & execution of 1000s more. Army units surrounded villages & lined people up in streets. Baptised Sikh men were humiliated, taken away in trucks &+
3. disappeared. Approx 1 million individuals were reported as missing or killed as a result of Army operations during this period. It is estimated that 100,000 youths were taken into custody within first 6 weeks of operation & many of them were not heard of again. During both +

Along with selfishness & apathy, there's a significant chunk of Indians who believe Muslims need to be taught a lesson- "खूप माजले आहेत ते"- commonly used phrase. Similar to Nazis, Hindutva govt is bringing in laws that majority of people want or will tolerate. Most Germans were+
2. aware of the change of laws & terror tactics in 1930s. But that terror was meant for "people who deserved it", people who were already dehumanised by propaganda. So discrimination & terror used on Jews actually helped Nazis consolidate the regime as people genuinely thought +
3. order is finally being restored & pesky Jews are shown their place. Another big chunk of population are victims of "Spiral of silence"- people who feel their society/friends etc may isolate, neglect or exclude them due to their opinion. These are the people who know things +

Indian Muslims should read about some of the 2K anti-Jewish laws in Nazi Germany to understand how it all starts & ends.
1933- Random attacks on Jews & Jewish property, Police & courts no longer protect Jews, April boycott of Jewish shops, Germans are told not to buy from Jewish+
2. people & businesses. SA stand by Jewish shops to discourage people from going inside, 'Kosher'-ritual slaughter of animals banned, Dept of Racial Hygiene ('ethnic cleansing') formed.
1934-Jews excluded from medicine, dentistry, pharmacy & law, Jews excl from military service +
3. 1935- Nuremberg Laws deny Jews many basic civil rights, Law for 'Protection of German Blood & German Honour' forbid mixed marriages.

This fraud is trying to make Gujarat look like heaven for its 9% Muslims. Guj Muslims face unique problems due to combination of Hindutva terrorism, social exclusion & ghettoisation. Acc to Sachar Comm report, Muslims are under-represented in most state govt depts. Low levels +
2. of education also don't help fix this problem & 24% urban Muslims in Gujarat live below the poverty line. There is an element of truth behind comparison of Gujarat & WB/Assam. However, he fails to mention that post 2002 genocide, Muslims didn't have faith in the regime & +
3. started their own educational institutions. The no. of Muslim schools in Gujarat rose to 700 & Muslim NGOs have been working hard to stop the dropout rate. Muslims are fighting back the Hindutva govt apartheid thru education. It is the effort of the community in helping +
