So, about 300 girls get kidnapped on April 15th and the West finds out about it only when it goes viral on Social media sites?  The news coverage starts and the 24hr news networks start their coverage, with 3D special effects, holograms and parade of ‘experts’ because now it is something that people are talking about and this will boost ratings.

But why didn’t we hear about this when it happened?  If it happened in America all news and everything would have been shut down and we would have been bombarded with live coverage of the event and that is all we would have been talking about.  So what’s so different?  They are ‘the others’.  Sub-Human, as portrayed by the West for many, many decades.  Africans have been shown as uncivilized and uneducated savages, living in famine and mud huts.  By showing them in this light, we feel as if they are not human and not worthy of our feelings and support.  The whole continent is grouped together like it’s one country.  The African countries are so irrelevant that they are all seen as one big group.

The idea of ‘The Other’ is very old.  The group doing the judging considers themselves to be ‘Normal’ and anyone that does not ‘fit’ is The Other.  The Other is often treated as being lower or inferior to ‘The Norm’.  They are considered uneducated or even uncivilized.

Otherness takes many forms. The Other may be someone who is of…

  • a different race (White vs. non-White),
  • a different nationality (Anglo Saxon vs. Italian),
  • a different religion (Protestant vs. Catholic or Christian vs. Jew),
  • a different social class (aristocrat vs. serf),
  • a different political ideology (capitalism vs. communism),
  • a different sexual orientation (heterosexual vs. homosexual),
  • a different origin (native born vs. immigrant).

Yes folks, even us Indians were considered as ‘The Other’ during the British Raj, even when we outnumbered them 4000 to 1!  They wanted to come and help ‘civilize’ us as from our backwards ways, help teach us a better language (so we lose ours) and teach us their religion, so we can be saved (completely strip us of our identity).

This can also been seen in Hollywood, even Hollywood has adopted the concept of ‘The Other’.  Notice the villain in kids cartoons is always the one dressed in black, and the good guy is in white?  The villain is almost always one with an accent and the hero is the all white American boy.  Even us being ‘The Other’ has accepted this way of thinking and the guy who is not white and has an accent is acceptable to us as a villain or as a funny bumbling side kick, but never a hero – (how many times have people been surprised, when you start talking that you don’t have an accent or seem to know what you’re talking about).

We even do it to ourselves!  Look at Bollywood.  The Sikh is always made fun of, because we are a care free and friendly people.  We are portrayed in these films as clowns and jokers.  We are warriors and great leaders, when has that ever been shown?  This no doubt, goes back through the times when we were and are looked upon as protectors and warrior people.  In order to subdue this image, we were recreated as a clown for the Indian cinema.  Things are changing and we are seeing better portrayals for the Sikh and Punjabi people in cinema.

What they need in Nigeria is an Army of Sikhs.  Why?  Cause we have already dealt with this.

A popular category of jokes in India is the “12 o’clock jokes”, which imply that Sikhs are in their senses only at night. Preetinder Singh explains the origin of the “12 o’clock joke” as follows:The real reason for the “12 O’clock Association” with Sikhs comes from Nadir Shah‘s invasion of India. His troops passed through Punjab after plundering Delhi and killing hundreds of thousands of Hindus and Muslims, and taking hundreds of women as captive. The Sikhs decided to attack Nadir Shah’s camp and free the captive women. Being outnumbered by Nadir Shah’s huge army, they could not afford to make a frontal attack. Instead, they used to make midnight guerrilla raids on Nadir Shah’s camp, free as many captive women as possible, and return them to their homes in order to “restore the diginity of the Hindu community”.

If we do it to ourselves, how can we stop others from doing it to us?

This is what has been happening for the last few decades, to Punjab and India.  The same political parties and politicians, many who are criminals, are voted back in after they feed people money, drinks and drugs.  And they are given five years to rape, pillage and empty the coffers, like they have done now.

I have stayed out of it and didn’t want to come into it. But this mess has dragged me into the foray! I am no expert as to who anyone should vote for. But when you have Jazzy B, Gippy Greewal, Harbhajan Mann & others making ads for Akali Dal and for the Badal govt, it stuns me. These parties have done absolutely nothing for Punjab! They control PTC TV station, that also runs the PTC awards….think about it… if you no support us, you not gonna win an award! And these artists are now releasing videos etc saying we don’t support these people etc. Either you do or you don’t! Stand like a true Desi!  It doesn’t take much, take a look at who won awards or were featured on stage at the PTC awards show this year and it all makes sense.  All these guys also release movies regularly, and yes PTC also now produces films.

I am not a citizen of Punjab. I am not a citizen of India. I am an outsider, who can’t change the fate of our mother, unlike you.  Why are you putting yourselves through the hell that you have suffered for the last ten years?  For drugs? Money and Drinks?

I hope that Punjab & India votes for the AAP and Kejriwal, to get back on track.  If not….we will all pay for it…again!  I asked my dad today,’Dad, what’s wrong with our people?’ We know they gonnna rape our country, over and over again. So why vote for these thieves? He said simple, ‘We love to get fucked! And are used to being Fucked’ – First the Persians, then the British, now our own people are raping their own motherland.

AAP Candidates-
15 Doctors,
48 Social activists,
37 RTI activists,
4 Teachers,
24 Engineers,
7 Army Men…
BJP Candidates-
32 Rapists,
18 Murderers,
73 relatives,
16 Criminals.

 

Why don’t we give someone else a try to fuck us and our country? Give them 5 years and let’s see what happens.  Realistically, can India really suvive with a Kejriwal? Who knows, it can’t be worse than it is now, with suicides, record drug addicts, gangs and land grabbing.

In my humble opinion…If you vote for anyone else…you might as well, shoot yourself in the head! You have tried everyone else for the last twenty years, let’s try Arvind Kejriwal and AAP for the next FIVE! If we don’t like it, move on and vote elsewhere next time! GIVE HIM AND AAP 5 YEARS!

Mad Mann!

Gandhi's Views on What The Jewish Community should have done in response to the Nazis.

Gandhi’s Views on What The Jewish Community should have done in response to the Nazis.

Growing up I remember getting up in front of my Grade 5 class, and we had to present a biography on who we admired.  I chose Mahatma Gandhi, the father of India and fighter of freedom for us!  I picked him because of all of the great things that we see on TV, in books and are taught about this great man of history.  He’s got statues all over the world, he’s that Great!  There is even one of him in front of The Canadian Museum for Human Rights in Winnipeg, Manitoba!  And they named a street after him there too.

Mahatma means Great Soul.  And one person in history that has earned that title is the great, Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, otherwise known as Mahatma Gandhi.  When the name Mahatma Gandhi is mentioned, all around the world, images of peace and sacrifice come to minds.

You say pacifist I say calculating deceiver.  You say patriot, I say puppet.  You say Mahatma, I say coward.  Gandhi is regarded as a traitor of Indian Independence by people throughout India. This is supported by people from India, Pakistan and Bangladesh who have studied the truth of Indian history, written from the Indian viewpoint as opposed to that which has been fed down our throats by the West and written by high government officials who have falsified a version of our history to suit their needs.  The evidence is clear as written by Gandhi in his autobiography, “Experiments with Truth”, where he continually contradicts his varying views. What you view as good and wholesome is the biased perception calculated and presented to you by British historians and government endorsed publications. They fail to even mention the failures by the British Empire against other freedom fighting parties which played a very large part in the destabilization of colonial rule during the Empire’s dying hour.

His views on the segregation of Black & White South Africans.

They show the British as “peacefully withdrawing” from India as a direct cause of Gandhi’s activity. They have completely and very conveniently forgot to mention the losses faced by British troops through rebellion of North West and Eastern India.

Destabilization was already in motion. Indian regiments were in rebellion in the south, east and west. The martyrdom of over 500 Indian regiment troops in south India is but one of many examples.

The British had two options before them

a) Do they tactfully retreat which would help them buy time to withdraw all resources with minimal damages and losses…Or

b) Do they face the revolt of their own troops and face being thrown out losing valuable resources and International power.

And as we have seen through history they executed this plan very well.  Gandhi was a prime puppet for this plan to be executed without a hitch.

Widely accepted as having an inferiority complex which is further supported by his autobiography, where in one quote he states;

“I would give up the finest sons of India to save the British Empire in its dying hour”

“We [Indians] can only be granted the responsibility of freedom once we learn to civilize ourselves first. [like the British]”

Is it acceptable to fight for your own captors and exploiters as was done in World War II??? Can you logically conclude that we should lay down our lives for the same people who enslaved our people, raped our women and gutted our rich country? Why does Gandhi regard freedom as not being a right???

A great pacifist indeed!  He himself recruited troops for the British army during W.W.II.

Where, I ask you, was his preaching of non-violence then?  His values, beliefs and views are clearly hypocritical.

Gandhi’s position with the British was threatened by freedom fighters who had taken to arms to free India from the British, namely the diplomat and highly educated Subhash Chandra Bose and Bhagat Singh, a young freedom fighter and leader who wrote the book, “Why I am an Atheist”.

Bhagat Singh had conquered the fear of death in his teens and fought in several uprisings against the British, organized and executed several attacks and was highly educated.  He was put to death at the age of 23.  He died so we could live free.

It is a historical fact that Gandhi and his associates adopted the middle path Irwin talks with the British, the great Soul of India was approached by several delegations who pleaded with him to save Bhagat Singh and have the death sentence switched to a life sentence.

Once the talks commenced, observers were confident that just one word from Gandhi would save the lives of the young men on death row.  Historical records of the dialogue between Gandhi and Irwin reveal a very dismal picture.  The Great One spoke for everyone, except Bhagat Singh.

And after the hanging of the martyr Bhagat Singh, Gandhi had the audacity to make the following statement, “the Congress made many attempts to save the lives of Bhagat Singh and his two associates”.

Historians that have studied Gandhi have observed that Gandhi perceived Subhash Chander Bose and Bhagat Singh as potential threats to his own highly acclaimed position.

I find it degrading when people quote our History according to British translation or manufacture. I would suggest that you please read Gandhi’s works before drawing such assumptions of his character and goals.

Indian history holds the truth. Not historical stories and fairytales created by various British organizations.  Even today those martyrs that gave their life for a free India are being referred to as terrorists and murderers in certain school books even in India, thanks to this Great Soul.

Where one word could have saved thousands of the finest sons of India, this great patriot and self sacrificing father of our nation let them hang and be labeled as terrorists.

Time is proof that history has been written by those who win.  And in the freedom of our land from the British, India was divided into two, its heroes were labeled as terrorists and history truly was written by the winners, the British and Gandhi.Gandhi Pedophile

Today I salute you Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi, Oh Father of India, with what you truly deserve, for doing what you have done to my people and my land……Fuck You!! – I should have just chose Pierre Elliott Trudeau, the Prime Minister of Canada like my dad told me to.  He said, “Trudeau is a true hero of our people.  This Gandhi Guy, he junk!” (In a hard Indian Accent of Course!)
