With what face can those who stole,
plundered, deceived,
colonised, enslaved, annihilated cultures,
converted through coercion & torture,
justified abominable atrocities in the name of colour, race
even destroyed indigenous wildlife in a maniacal show of drunken power
have the nerve to lecture us on tolerance, democracy, inclusiveness ?

Wealth, they say, gives them power !
Ha!
Even that, is from the back, the toil, the blood of our ancestors. Their museums filled with our art & treasure.
Cloaked in 21stC sanctimoniousness this pillage & racism continues in their own inner cities, no go zones

& then across the world, in the Middle East, Africa, India, South Asia, Latin America...enabled by the same lot even today.

Only by another name.

Yes, even the modus operandi remains the same - little sepoys, those servile brown coolies, scurrying to help. White washing, sanitising history, nibbling & gnawing at self esteem.…

Mastah! Mastah ! Three Bags Full Sir !
The interviewer here 👇🏼makes an interesting case study.
Strange how deeply they fear our nationalism.
But don’t think anything of a God Bless America, hand on their heart, or head bowed to their own sovereigns.
Bureau Chiefs, other assorted specimens of western publications & NGOs overwhelmed by attention, social engagements & a new lifestyle send out ‘exotic’ stuff to remain relevant at home & justify those salaries.

For too long there has been a free pass for people with a limited understanding of the political dynamics of this country, our culture, history, not even going into the civilisational aspect, that have indicted millions with their smugness, self righteousness that no longer
hides a devious intent.

That intent being : We want our people in your top offices. It facilitates & accelerates our access to power. Till that happens we declare your Democracy Dead....
Only - they haven’t recognised One Simple Fact.

The Lion has learnt to write & the Hunter’s word is not the last one.

One could be on a 3-6 week overseas trip in the 70s,80s & 90s & not have India mentioned even once in their newspapers or on their TV.

It was as if we simply did not exist.
The first perceptible change was in early 2000 -2001 when beaming waiters, cab drivers, shopkeepers, porters asked -
India IT? India IT ?

The reason why the Gandhis & their controllers want Narendra Modi out now & at the earliest is-

The longer he stays the more India gets accustomed to more.
And more is not what their Idea of India is all about.
After all, when in power they ran us with a crumb now & then, dribble here & there so that we remained perpetually wanting & grateful while they flew in & out of the country having enriched themselves exponentially.
Plucking a page from Dadi’s & Daddy’s old, faded albums these touristy picture postcards of sipping coconuts, joining in the local colour & dance sent from various parts of the country is what the siblings believe will overcome their disconnect with the challenges & aspirations

Four Steps To Disintegration 👇🏼

One -
He’s a good guy & politics is just not his thing.

Two -

How hard YoYa tries with that hangdog face & his far-fetched tales that usually leave the likes of NDTV in raptures...

BBC’s Stephen Sackur however, remains unimpressed & cuts him short abruptly several times over.

Embarrassing !!

Here is the link to the complete interview. Thank you @Rita_2110

Grandmother eliminated a cult leader that she herself had created but could no longer control.

In turn, his followers eliminated her.

The son took his revenge with a pogrom that killed thousands over 3 days.
Today, to relaunch his flaccid political career for the nth time the grandson supports a protest that is hijacked by that very same cult, who, on their path to attain their unattainable goal seem to have conveniently put aside the stench of burning tyres.
The end of this Faustian deal has already been written.
The tragedy is, that the two failed protagonists are unable to read.

So
Who will consume whom ?
Who live to tell the tale ?

Or will India bury both .....?
