I'm not sure that's true. It makes me wonder if he and I are living on different planets. He's in Vancouver, I'm in Surrey. By far the vast majority of rank and file members of the Sikh community want to separate from the persecution of the Modi government. When I covered the Khalistan referendum in Surrey there was an overwhelming support from regular members.
"The call for a separate Sikh homeland in Punjab, India — to be called Khalistan — has been brewing since the 1930s, when British rule in India was nearing its end. Although the movement now has marginal support in India, it has taken wings in Canada and escalated into the present derailing of relations between two friendly Commonwealth democracies, India and Canada."
WTF? No really. Who the hell is writing this and what is their agenda? The Modi government is persecuting Sikhs and Muslims in India. That persecution is real. He is a right wing extremist who wants to make India exclusively Hindu again and call it Hindustan. He'll demolish Mosques in North Eastern India then order the troops to shoot protesters. It's serious. These concerns are real. Brushing them under the table claiming no one cares about this is highly suspicious.
My primary concern is the intentional flooding of Punjab. That is a huge concern the fake news isn't even covering. They are using the Dams to increase flooding by holding back water in the dry season and releasing it in the wet season. Then blame it on climate exchange. That is absolutely criminal. So again to say no one in Punjab cares about that is delusional.
This is all part of the problem, reaction, solution paradigm. Modi creates a huge injustice, the Five Eyes stroke extremism, then the Five Eyes denounce and eliminate extremism over an injustice they created. Then there was Surjan Singh Gill, the CSIS mole that provided the explosives for the Air India bombing. If we talk about Sikh extremism we need to talk about that.
It's like Modi's globalist attack on farming in Punjab. This globalist attack on farming isn't just in the Punjab. It's in Holland, Europe and Canada too. To say no one cares about the WEF's attack on farming just isn't true. It's suspicious. The fake news has an agenda.
It's sad because the ideal is a free Republic where religious freedom and civil liberty are protected by law. As I keep saying, religious freedom protects the right to be atheist. Removing religious freedom is one of the first things they do before they take away every other freedom like free speech, lawful assembly and due process.
Most non-Punjabi Indians I know have an intense dislike of the khalistan movement.
ReplyDeleteThat's the problem. Hindus in India hate Sikhs but they don't want to let them go. If they insist on creating a Hindu state, they need to let them go. Gandhi was assassinated by a Hindu extremest who didn't want peace with the Sikhs or the Muslims. Modi is a Hindu extremist who wants to eliminate other religions. Denying there's a problem and blaming the people objecting to the problem is strange. Holding a referendum was the most peaceful response to the problem possible.
DeleteModi is on the road to Communism. First you eliminate all religions but one, then you eliminate that final religion and voilà mission accomplished. You now have a Marxist Leninist atheist state. Netanyahu is on that same road.
Not sure Modi is on the road to communism but he is on the road to something which is not democracy. He is most likely on the road to Modism, a dictator, on party rule, etc.
DeleteReligion is not a good thing when its mixed with politics.
Modi has been clear about his dislike for Muslims. When other religious groups were offered Indian citizenship Muslims were excluded.
It is doubtful the Punjab will be come an independent state in my life time or those younger than me. It would be preferable to keep the fighting about it out of Canada. I'm not keen on India arranging the murder of people in Canada regardless of their politics or religion.
Agree with your take on Modi's approach to the farm land in the Punjab. He could then starve the Sikhs and others who he did not want in India. Not nice. Lets hope Canada is no longer sending foreign aid to India. It really is about time Canada exercised its control over our country and got rid of those from other countries who are interfering with their former citizens right to a peaceful life in Canada. So in addition to India, perhaps Iran and China should back off and just mind their own business instead of telling Canada how to run their country. They all have enough problems in their own countries to keep then busy.
That's Communism. That's where Modi is heading.
DeleteCambodia, East Berlin, Stalin, Lenin, it's all the same:

You are aware though, that you can have a capitalist economy and still be a dictatorship, right? See Azerbaijan.
DeleteI don't like the term capitalist economy. That is very misleading. I don't see myself as a capitalist and I don't see world conflict as being a struggle between Communism and Capitalism. I see it as a struggle between Dictatorship and Freedom. Hitler was a dictator and so was Stalin. They were both bad. I'm going to explain in separate post.
DeleteIf they could they'd get rid of the Sikh's and keep their land. That's why.
ReplyDeleteThis guy is absolutely full of it.
ReplyDeleteWhats goin on at the sikh and hindu temples latley ? So much fighting not good why bring all this stuff from india to 🇨🇦
ReplyDeleteYes I'm going to speak on that in a separate post. The preamble to the Canadian Bill of Rights states that we speak out against global injustice. That doesn't mean we bring foreign beefs and religious discrimination here. However, if CSIS can organize Air India, they can also organize or pay someone to vandalize a Hindu temple here at home to justify their Agenda.
