farzana versey and arjunm are mumbaikars who defy labels and are in a clas by themselves, seeing the love apparent between them I say they should get hitched.

Actually FV makes a lot of sense most of the time. In our ``FlatLander`` world she would be a priestess.

Why does it have to be personal? Please look at the excerpt I copied in #62 and tell me whether or not it is hateful speech.

The woman in question is a parasite. I said that and much more in the interact that was censured.

re:#46 by tahmed32
Hey, hey, hey.
Tahmed,
Looks like being Chowk`s mullah has gotten to your head.
I am questioning the allegations levelled against the guy. what was the Pak govt (or the dictator) doing for 15 years when this guy has already served 15 years of jail term? When did he commit the crime? Why wait for 15 years before punishing him?
IF u read the stories in press, looks like the 2 countries are quietly exchanging prisoners, keeping this as a pretext. And now, some jehadis from Pak want some militant in India released. Get the picture? The guy is not a culprit. More likely, he is a scapegoat.

Hmm...it seems as if Sarabjit Singh is a hostage. Of course, FV can now have her
90Rs coffee in peace.

[There is one other element of this story that everyone seems to ignore. Did Manjeet Singh, whether or not he was Sarabjit, indeed blow up bombs and killed innocent people? Was he an agent of the Indian government?]

I fervently hope this is true. I hope we are doing something to spread unrest in Balochistan, in NWFP, in Sindh - in fact, everywhere in that accursed country. Let`s give them a taste of their own medicine.


[If this is true, this is very disturbing.]

To you maybe, but not to patriotic Indians. But then, they do not belong to the ummah.


[The govt. of India is supposed to be governed by some rules of civilised behaviour; if it was sending people to cause terror in Pakistan, under what law was it doing so and how does it make it any different from cross-border terrorism from Pakistan? ]

It`s different. Just like England bombing Germany was different than Germany bombing England first.

But you don`t see that. Being that your umbilical is tied to the ummah.



When an ``admission`` is the SOLE PROOF the famous Justice System in Pakiland (according to whom Dawood Ibrahim ``does not reside`` in Pakiland) has about this guy, one has to wonder about the patriotism of all those ``Indians`` who are finding all kinds of ``disturbing`` insights in this incident.

If this is not hate speech, what is?


incitement to violence is predicated on authority and foreknowledge...if this guy knew the shiv sainiks would read this and actually go out and do something, it`s incitement...if he had some authority in the ss and knew what the reaction of the ssers to his speech would be, it`s incitement...

good luck trying to get a conviction on that....

I was talking about pre-911 situation



oh yes...before 9/11, pakis were all jihaaad, kashmir banega pakistan, jihadis zindabad etc etc...

post 9/11, they`re all visa moderates...moderates only because their visa depends on it....most won`t be caught dead admiting they support(ed) the jihadis....it`s like our parents telling us how bell-bottoms were the in thing when they were in college but they personally never wore them(sure...)...

Re: # 54
//....Indians just need to let pakis be pakis, ... and sit back with the popcorn and a good german beer....//

At this point of time, yes - that will work.... I was talking about pre-911 situation:1989-2001, the high days of paki-sponsored jihad....Indians were sitting ducks getting killed in thousands, yet the state could do nothing to eliminate or abate jihad at its source....All that state could do was rear-guard action.

India survived jihad by default... not by design. If 9/11 had not happened jihad would still go on.... I know that`s already history, but the lesson has not been learnt.

arjun-m#59:

``I wonder what is the matter with the Shiv Sena and other organizations in Mumbai. They know that Ferzana Versey lives in Mumbai and publicly writes anti-India material all day. Why dont they set her right? They can kick her out of Mumbai along with her bag and baggage and point her the road to Pakistan. How can they tolerate an ``asteen ka saap`` like her? Have they no shame or have they lost their manhood that they cannot set this woman straight?``

If this is not hate speech, what is?

Re: # 55 DM

Yes, India is governed by a constitution which stipulates protection for Indians from jihad or other foreign aggressions. Which means India has to do whatever it has to do to make sure paki-sponosored jihad is halted. If that involves covert operation in which paki by-standers were killed, well - that`s just collateral damage.

Innocent Pakis? Well - jihad collection boxes have been gathering One Billion US$ a year [ WSJ number].... A billion dollar a year - that`s what paki masses have perosnally donated to kill hinuds in jihad...Innocent Pakis? Really?
