India: Release of culprits in the Bilkis rape case exposes the misogyny of the VHP-RSS & BJP
26 August 2022, by siawi3Bilkis Bano is the victim of the RSS and the Modi government’s (when it happened, Narendra Modi was the Chief Minister of Gujarat) efforts to alienate Muslims from the mainstream of Indian society and push them to the periphery. The many lynching cases that have taken place since 2002 are testimony to the machination of the RSS and BJP to supress Muslims in India. Can we expect some relief for Bilkis Bano and the witnesses who testified against the accused and are today terrorised by the prospect of all 11 accused with evident links to the ruling BJP in Gujarat roaming around freely, specially after the rousing reception they received from their supporters, soon as they walked out of the jail together---hugs and sweets as if they were incarcerated for upholding some just cause.

Israel’s identity crisis

India: “See to it that the fabric isn’t ruptured”
24 August 2021, by siawi3Last week-end several Hindutva communal brigades and their promoters and organizers reached right up to that significant central spot of this capital city and rendered anti-Muslim hate filled slogans and speeches. In fact, this was a repeat of what took place a week back at Delhi’s Dwarka local. Mind you, a Muslim’s anger is not against the Hindu but against the fascist communal forces. I would go to the extent to say that whatever little chance of survival holds out for the Indian Muslim community is because of the liberal and progressive Hindus and Sikhs and Christians and Atheists and Parsis, who refuse to be part of the Hindutva brigades.

26 August 2022, by siawi3The violence in Gujarat in 2002 was one of India’s worst religious riots and more than 1,000 people died, most of them Muslims.

Bano’s husband, Bilkis Yakoob Rasool, earlier said the courts and the government did not tell them the convicted men would be released and that it had shaken his faith in justice.
