A plea
to Leaders and nationalist Hindus
Subject:
The
Jihadist terrorism directed
against Hindus and voters –
a core issue in Gujarat Elections
Aadarniya
Political and Religious Leaders,
Aadarniya patriot and nationalist Hindus
India, a soft state for the
Islamic jihadists particularly under the current governance, had a renewed
series of terrorist attacks on Friday, November 23, when bombs carried on
bicycles ripped through courts in Lucknow, Faizabad and Varanasi and killed at
least 14 people. This should be taken as the latest warning that Bin Laden
guided Islamic jihad will not let the Indian Govt. or its judiciary to function
against the wishes of the fundamentalist crusaders.
The current explosions in UP courts are only the latest in
an ongoing saga of series unleashed by enemies of India. Over the past three
years, major terrorist strikes have been executed by Pakistan-backed groups in
Delhi, Bangalore, Ayodhya, Mumbai, Varanasi, Hyderabad, Malegaon, Panipat ('Samjhauta
Express'), Ajmer and Ludhiana, with lesser attacks at a number of other
locations. It is clear that India is miserably failing to contain the menace of
Islamist terrorism and the current Central leadership cannot shrug off its
responsibility for this colossal national security failure.
New and old accounts are replete with unrebuttable volumes
of evidence that all these attacks are directed against Hindu India with the
twin goal of its disintegration and Islamization. The Jihadist terror attacks on
Hindus, their culture and temples continue in the heartland of the country. The
temples such as Raghunath, Akshardham, etc were specially targeted. In Kashmir
alone more than 150 temples were looted, desecrated, burnt, destroyed and some
of them turned into mosques. Neither the federal Parliament nor the important
national railways systems were spared. From J&K State to the heartland,
thousands of Hindus were killed and some publicly executed by these blood
thirsty murderous characters yet not even once did the federal Govt. established
a judicial commission to investigate for bringing the culprits to book nor did
it issue a white paper letting the public know the facts and official plans to
combat this threat to the well being of Hindus and the national security.
It may be recalled that after the terrorist attack on the
Parliament on December 13, 2002 there was a massive build up of Indian forces on
Indo- Pakistan border, by the then BJP/NDA government, to warn Pakistan and the
Jihadists about the possible consequences of their criminal behavior. However,
those days of decisiveness in Govt. action are gone. Now the terrorists are
emboldened by current government's policy of a) appeasement of Muslims for
votes; b) enlarging the illegal religion based reservations; c) using the Sachar
commission as a tool to legitimize reservations and additional rewards for the
Muslims; and, d) PM's highly illogical and undemocratic assertion that Muslims
should have the first priority over the national resources, etc. The grant of
such privileges and special treatment is unthinkable for minorities in any
Muslim country or in any other country in the world. Such indifference towards
Hindus in India and pampering of a particular minority by the Indian Govt. has
adversely impacted the Hindu populations in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bnagladesh,
Malaysia, Indonesia, and Bhutan and even in Nepal.
In view of these and other appeasement measures
taken by the Singh-Sonia regime the federal Govt. has become a willing partner
and collaborator of the Islamic jihadists engaged in schemes and criminal
conspiracies to explode India from within. It presents a serious challenge to
the patriotic Indians – one that cannot be allowed to materialize.
"During the last sixty years, from every Muslim
majority area of South Asia – without exception – be it Pakistan, Bangladesh or
from India’s own Kashmir valley, non-Muslims have been massively driven out to
India. This occurred when the Muslim population there achieved and abused the
political power through majority status.
Given these disruptive and disintegrative plans
of the Congress and its fellow travelers including the jihadists, the country
can be saved only by expelling these dubious characters from the seats of power.
At this point in history what India needs so desperately is a “unifier,
consolidator and an integrator” like Sardar Patel and not a divider and
disintegrator, who like Jaichand for satisfying some petty selfish interests,
would not hesitate to aid and participate in balkanization of the country.
Fortunately, like Sardar Patel we have yet another determined and dedicated son
of Gujarat, namely Narendra Modi, ready to assume dynamic leadership for
defending the integrity, sovereignty and security of India and defeat the
culture of political corruption perpetuated by Sonia-Singh regime.
This crisis can be resolved only when the corrupt,
domineering and ruling minorityism is rejected and the Hindu Nationalist
majority assumes its rightful and democratic role of governing the country.
Therefore, it is extremely important that in the interest of establishing a real
democracy the Hindu majority should take charge, exercise the power of its votes
to elect a Govt. that reflects Hindus wishes, desires, aspirations and dreams.
The threat posed by the congress combine of which the jihadists are an integral
part is so enormous that if left unchallenged it might alter India for good and
relegate the Hindu majority to a subjugated and powerless lot for ever. This
should tell you how much is at stake, how important it is to expel the
obstructionist saboteurs from Gujarat and how crucial it is to return Narendra
Modi to power with a thumping majority.
Further amplifying the theme of the threat posed by the
political Islam please find attached an interview of Dr. Moorthy Muthuswamy, a
specialist on the Islamic terrorism in India, carried by the "Frontpage"
magazine. It is worth circulating amongst the voters of Gujarat who are
bombarded day in and day out by the manufactured propaganda of secularists and
counter culturists to exasperate the nationalist will of the people, with intent
to subvert India.

Frontpage Interview’s guest today is Moorthy Muthuswamy, an expert on terrorism
in India. He grew up in India, where he had firsthand experience with political
Islam and jihad. He moved to America in 1984 to pursue graduate studies. In
1992, he received a doctorate in nuclear physics from Stony Brook University,
New York. Since 1999 he has extensively published ideas on neutralizing
political Islam's terror war as it is imposed on unbelievers. He is the author
of the new book, The
Art of War on Terror: Triumphing over Political Islam and the Axis of Jihad.
FP:
Moorthy Muthuswamy, welcome to Frontpage Interview.
Muthuswamy:
Thank you for the opportunity.
FP:
What inspired you to write this book?
Muthuswamy:
India has been a longstanding
victim of Islam-inspired terror. There has been a need to address this terror
issue comprehensively. This is also a humanitarian problem. Already an
impoverished nation, millions of Indian children are going hungry and getting
malnourished due to economic bleeding imposed in the name of Islam.
Toward the second half of 1990s I began to publish on this issue mostly in the
South Asian context. Since the 9/11 attacks, my focus has shifted to include
America.
Even after six years into the anniversary of 9/11 attacks, we are still
struggling to identify the enemy, let alone figure out how to defeat him.
However, in my view, we may be closer to realizing, at last, the parameters of
waging a successful war on terror. I wanted to bring it to the audience by
writing this book.
FP: Who is
our enemy in this terror war? What engenders this enemy? Who are the main
backers of this enemy?
Muthuswamy:
Our enemy is political Islam
and a movement based upon it: the political Islamic movement. Political Islam
holds that Islam should have a dominant say in governing the affairs of
government. There are good reasons for this outlook, going back to Islamic
scriptures.
Islamic trilogy, consisting of the Koran, Hadith and Sira, is the basis of
political Islam. In the past few years sophisticated scientific analysis of the
trilogy has been carried out. The Center for Study of Political Islam has
published a series along these lines. Their analysis points to a very dominant
political nature of the trilogy – i.e. domination of political deeds of Islam’s
founder Mohammed – as opposed to spirituality. Hence it is very reasonable to
conclude that political Islam is almost Islam.
In the context of the trilogy, inner political Islam prevents Muslims from
acquiring new knowledge to create a better future for themselves; external
political Islam commands them to wage a religious war (called jihad) with
unbelievers until the whole humanity is converted to Islam.
Trilogy-based evidence and early Islamic history suggest that political Islam’s
intent on absolute control of Muslim masses and channeling of their energies
toward conquest gives an impression of an ideology that is primarily designed
for extending the powerbase of Mohammed during his times and that of extended
tribes of Saudis, non-Saudi Arab Muslims and non-Arab Muslims (in that order)
subsequent to his death.
This strong political component also means that Islam may not be structurally
amenable to reform or moderation. If one takes away this political component,
there is no Islam.
Mosques not only bring trilogy to Muslim communities but they also function as
social centers. Due to the political domination of the trilogy, clerics are
naturally inclined toward political activism, including multi-front jihad
directed at unbelievers. It is ascertained in my book that political Islam,
through its socially networked nodes called mosques, is the swamp that creates
mosquitoes called jihadis, radicals, militants and extremists, and importantly,
gets Muslim populations to support them.
We should view political Islam, not radical or militant Islam, as our
main enemy.
Any movement based on the political ideology outlined in the trilogy has to have
powerful and resourceful backers in order to be successful. Saudi Arabia, Iran
and Pakistan have powerful political Islamic movements within that fuel
movements elsewhere – both in other Muslim majority nations and in nations with
Muslim minorities. These three nations are called, Axis of Jihad in my
book.
Saudi and Iranian funding for mosques can be seen as the most efficient way of
advancing jihad, by funding nodes of social network in Muslim communities. Also,
the axis of jihad nations or political Islamic movements in these nations has
created powerful proxies – be it Al-Qaeda, Afghan Taliban (by Saudi Arabia and
Pakistan) or Hezbollah (by Iran).
In this context we can now identify the weakness in American strategy in the war
on terror. America is trying to neutralize proxies and radicals while doing
little to neutralize the axis of jihad and the global political Islamic
movement. While I agree with the initial assault on Saddam’s regime and the
Taliban, the continued occupation of Iraq – and even Afghanistan appear to be
expensive, time-consuming and draining diversions.
We are now further identifying the enemy: a political ideology of conquest that
inspires terror, mosques as the nodes that spawn jihad and axis of jihad as the
main backer nations of the ideology and the nodes.
FP: Well,
the continued “occupation” of Iraq has indeed brought many challenges, but the
bottom line is that Iraq is today the jihadis’ central front in their war
against the West. If we cut and run, we will embolden political Islam everywhere
and the bloodbath that will follow may resemble another Southeast Asia after
1975 – and probably much worse.
Muthuswamy:
Indeed, a pull-out from Iraq under the current conditions will embolden
jihadis and their backers. However, if we work to increase the pressure points
on jihadis and the political Islamic movement (discussed in the book), it will
make our pull-out from Iraq less difficult and justifiable.
FP: Ok, well, we can
continue a debate and discussion on this issue in another forum. The Iraq war is
not our focus today my friend.
Tell us a bit about your problem-solving approach to the war on terror.
Muthuswamy:
Because the political Islamic
movement is driven by a conquest-oriented medieval ideology and outlook, it
behaves like a “germ”. Dialogue or accommodation is simply not possible. Second,
this movement is entrenched among Muslim populations and importantly, is
networked, with multiple power centers or nodes. This means classical approach
of predominantly using diplomacy and/or military force, along with aid is not
effective. This may be the reason why our traditional Think Tanks are struggling
to come up with a coherent policy response that our political leaders could rely
on.
We are fighting this war with a number of preconceived notions. I have debunked
many critical ones in my book. Let me mention a few (within the brackets are my
retorts):
Democracy is the solution to radical Islam. (No, in order for functional
democracies to take root, political Islam must first be neutralized.);
A widely practiced religion must have a strong moderate component. (No again,
free wealth can create conditions for complete domination of extremism.);
The fight within Islam is between moderates and extremists. (No, the fight is
between different extremist groups or schools of thought.);
We must use moderates in Islam to fight extremists. (We must use a fundamentally
different approach: using science-based arguments to help liberate educated
Muslims so that they are empowered to neutralize political Islamic movement from
within.);
Ideology is the strong suit of Muslim radicals. (No, seen through common sense,
derived from science, it is political Islam’s weak link.);
We can rely on moderate leaders in nations such as Pakistan or Saudi Arabia.
(The de facto power in these nations are political Islamic movements,
this makes these leaders ineffective in stopping these nations from being
fountainheads of terror.);
Grievances drive Muslim populations into anger and towards terror. (No, most
grievances are manufactured to channel Muslim energies towards jihad.).
FP: Can you
talk a bit about science vs. political Islamic ideology?
Muthuswamy:
Political Islamic ideology is
found in the Islamic trilogy. Confronting this ideology with science is a
no-lose proposition and has the most potential for driving a wedge between the
political Islam and educated Muslims. This should also lead to loss of prestige
of Muslim clerics and weakening of nodes of network that spawn jihad – the
mosques.
Educated Muslims are the backbone of the political Islamic movement. Clearly,
madarasa-only educated Muslims do not have the requisite knowledge to
operate effectively in the modern world; the college educated ones do.
Due to physical threats, the trilogy couldn’t be put under microscope in Islamic
nations and political correctness has done the same in Western nations. But the
existential threat arising from political Islam calls for taking a critical look
at the trilogy.
Here is a brief critical look.
The Koran was the first book of the trilogy to be put together, and
that was done several decades after the death of Mohammed. In a Hadith it is
said that Koranic verses were collected from bits of bone, stone, parchment,
date palm leaves, and also from the memories of those who had memorized it.
Clearly, leaves, stones, bits of bone, and people’s memory are not reliable
forms of note-taking or information storage when Mohammed delivered his
“revelations”. This is common sense. For something as profound as God’s
“revelations,” there shouldn’t be an iota of doubt about their authenticity. We
can make a powerful assertion that available evidence makes the claim of
associating these revelations with God not scientifically credible.
Second point to be noted: Immersed in a rudimentary and often flawed
understanding of nature, the tribes Mohammed belonged to were not well-placed to
identify phoney messengers of God or falsehood.
While this type of an ideological warfare can be seen as a must, it is a
long-term approach. We do need near-term measures that increase the cost of
waging jihad unbearable for its sponsors.
FP:
Illuminate for us the ongoing jihad in India.
Muthuswamy:
The answer to the question of
what will likely happen to Europe and other nations as their resident Muslim
populations rise faster than unbelievers becomes apparent by studying the
ongoing jihad in India’s vicinity and in India itself.
During the last sixty years, from every Muslim majority area of
South Asia – without exception – be it Pakistan, Bangladesh or from India’s own
Kashmir valley, non-Muslims have been massively driven out to India. This
occurred when the Muslim population there achieved political power through
majority status. Also, laws and conditions have been put in place to
deliberately marginalize non-Muslims. In almost all of these cases, mosques and
the clerics played a major role in facilitating this “conquest”. In India the
Muslim population percentage has increased from about 10 percent in 1951 to
about 15 percent now.
Even within 85 percent non-Muslim India, in some Muslim majority towns this
phenomenon is getting repeated. These South Asian populations share language,
food habits and culture but differ in religion. Clearly, these Muslim
populations are influenced by political Islam.
Written orders were issued by Pakistan’s military high command to kill Hindus in
the then East Pakistan in 1971. The largest religion-based genocide of the past
fifty years was conducted as a result. Most of these expulsions and genocides
occurred before 1972 – well before the large-scale infusion of petrodollars and
Wahhabism.
Those who claim that oil money, Muslim “grievance” or “freedom
fighting” are responsible for terror should think again. As noted earlier,
political Islam’s fundamental emphasis on conquest is traced to the scripture
level.
This data of non-Muslim expulsions from every Muslim majority area of South Asia
implies that Muslims of this region do not believe in coexistence. This also
points to intolerance among Indian Muslims (also substantiated in other ways).
But due to their minority status they have not been able to completely impose
their will on non-Muslim Indians. Still, Indian Muslim
leaders have managed to lay siege to Indian democracy and have started to
marginalize majority (to be discussed later) Hence, a fast-growing Muslim
population within India can be seen as a looming genocidal threat to non-Muslim
Indians.
With about half of worldwide Muslim population in South Asia, this damning
conclusion couldn’t be set aside as a deviant. The implications of this analysis
for regions and nations with fast-growing and radicalized Muslim populations
can’t be understated. A more complete statistics discussed in my book can be
useful in articulating and justifying far-reaching policy measures.
At the moment, India’s only Muslim majority state of Kashmir is embroiled in an
insurgency. Material and other forms of support for this insurgency come not
just from Pakistan but also from many Middle Eastern nations, including Saudi
Arabia. While these Muslim nations find it convenient to support “freedom
fighting” of Muslims, they choose to neglect non-Muslim ethnic cleansing from
every Muslim majority area of South Asia. For instance, Pakistan-controlled part
of Kashmir is virtually devoid of non-Muslims. This
fits in with the idea of extending Islam’s frontiers at the expense of
unbelievers.
Terror is just one avenue for conquering the land belonging to
infidels. When Muslims are a minority different ways must be found. Special
reservations for Muslims in jobs and educational institutions were demanded and
extracted by intimidating ruling regimes in India. In the long run, these unfair
reservations empowers Muslims at the expense of people belonging to other
faiths, setting the stage for further annihilation of non-Muslim faiths in
India.
Powerful clerics and Muslim community leaders “cautioned” the Indian government
of violent attacks by “angry” Muslims if the reservation demands were not met.
After all, Muslim masses have been told in mosques that their relative lack of
representation in positions requiring education is no fault of their own; only
government and the Hindu majority are to be blamed. This flawed perception of
Muslim grievance has taken years to achieve and is part of the jihad buildup
funded by several Middle East nations and Pakistan whose passion is unbeliever
conquest.
The jihad-related data from India (and everywhere else) emphasizes the need to
preempt jihad buildup at its infancy. The power structure of political Islam is
based in mosques – the socially networked nodes. With its power so narrowly
concentrated (Muslim masses are otherwise disorganized outside of mosques),
mosques are also political Islam’s greatest weak link.
Political Islam’s contemporary record of unbeliever genocide, backed by
scriptures, has no parallels with any other faith. Hence, as part of preemption,
non-Muslim majority nations are well-within their rights to categorize any
mosque or any Muslim religious institution that stocks or distributes material
derived from Islamic trilogy as an enemy entity – and shut them down if needed.
Even if a mosque appears outwardly moderate in a Western nation, by preaching
trilogy dominated by political Islam, it is still stealthily building up jihad
in local Muslim community! Of course, mosques in Muslim majority nations are
overt about advancing jihad.
This way of going after the nodes that spawn jihad should also help liberate
Muslim populations to alternate way of life or faith – i.e. help ensure
religious freedom of Muslim populations repressed by a political ideology
masquerading as a religion. Importantly, this tactic does not violate liberty of
individual Muslims.
FP: How
does India serve as a counterforce to jihad? What is the best policy the
U.S. and the West should apply vis-à-vis India in this context?
Muthuswamy:
In terms of population, location and size, India matches the extended global
network of Muslim populations that are influenced by political Islam. When a
non-white, non-Christian developing nation such as India claims to have been
victimized at the hands of Islamic nations and movements, it is bound to create
ideological difficulties for Islamists who have made Muslim grievance the
bedrock upon which to build the jihad castle.
If America could help deliver a fatal blow to the former Soviet
Union by backing Muslim nations against the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan,
why not back cornered Indians to fight political Islam and its sponsoring
nations? Unlike a
resurgent political Islamic movement, which has turned its guns on its former
benefactor America, a resurgent India already sharing secular and democratic
mode of governing is no threat to the Western civilization.
An integral part of this project can be neutralizing the influence
of Deoband Islamic seminary in India.
This seminary is the major force behind political Islamic movement and jihad in
entire South Asia and Afghanistan. An India working to successfully neutralize
political Islam within can do more. Sharing language and culture with Pakistan
and Bangladesh, such an India could help to liberate these nations to alternate
faiths or way of life. While these ideas may look far-fetched now, policy
decisions should be geared toward rapidly building up India in order to create a
new future.
Helping India is nothing other than helping to empower a
West-friendly Hindu majority to mobilize and take on political Islamic movement,
by building on the grievance majority has had in the hands of political Islam.
This also involves aiding Hindu organizations and promoting able and strong
leaders such as Narendra Modi of Bharathya Janata Party (BJP), which have the
wherewithal to take on political Islam.
The current regime of ManMohan Singh-Sonia Gandhi has proven to be,
through policies enacted, an unwitting friend of jihadists in India.
This shouldn’t be a surprise. Sonia Gandhi’s Congress party, according to Indian
intelligence, has been infiltrated by jihadists. Due to the policies enacted by
Manmohan Singh’s government, jihadi infiltration into Indian institions is
escalating, including its paramilitary forces. The window of opportunity to
leverage 850 million beleagured non-Muslim Indians for a win-win situation is
fast closing.
Nassim Taleb observes in his book, The Black Swan: The Impact of the Highly
Improbable (Random House, 2007) that “History does not crawl, it jumps”. He
mentions how certain precipitous and unpredictable events changed the course of
history or societies.
In other words, history or societies don’t change in predictable and small
incremental steps. There is always this pattern: Certain unpredictable events
affected significant percentage of a population leading to evolution of a
society in a new direction. But the American response to 9/11 attacks can at
best be seen as a predictable, incremental progression in dealing with the
enemy. This approach, historically, as noted earlier, doesn’t work! American
security, including its nuclear security, continues to be compromised by the
presence of strong political Islamic movements in axis of jihad nations.
One could argue that with political Islamic movement in Saudi Arabia or Pakistan
being the de facto powers there, and outside of the control of the national
leadership and being entrenched, decisive strikes could be an unfortunate
necessity. In other words, these strikes could become in the word’s of Nassim
Taleb’s 2007 book, a “Black Swan” – the unexpected and devastating event that
compel jihad-sponsoring populations that are part of the political Islamic
movement to make a U-turn vis-à-vis terror support.
More so than any Western nation or even Israel, there is an
important way a jihad victim state such as India can help deliver decisive
near-term blows to political Islamic movements in some axis of jihad nations.
Using Muslim majority Kashmir as a jihad base extensive network of
terror cells have been established in Muslim communities all throughout India.
It is a matter of time India is hit in a major way, thanks to jihad buildup in
India sponsored mainly by Pakistan and Saudi Arabia.
Strikes on India’s nuclear reactors, oil refineries or call-center
infrastructure, for instance, is bound to make devastating economic impact and
make hundrends of milions more of its children go hungry, and destitute and set
the stage for India’s ireversible destruction and eventual Islamization. Under
international law every state, including India, has the right to strike back
preemptively and devastatingly when faced with a blatant and long-pattern of
genocide by an enemy.
Iran’s situation is different, with clerics in direct control there. America may
have to execute military strikes to slow down its nuclear program. However, Iran
does have a strong semi-secular nationalist political class, unlike Sunni Saudi
Arabia or Pakistan. With this class and misgoverning by clerics, there exists
potential for discrediting the standing of ruling mullahs as the first step
towards neutralizing its terror and nuclear threats.
