Radical Islam and internal security

[G.Subramaniam]

A hard nosed look at the threat of the Indian muslim due to 'alienation'

In JK, there are 7 million muslims
Assume that 5 million are pro-pak
and yes the separatists can get millions to come out in rallies

The cold hard number is there are 7000 terrorists only
Meaning less than 0.1% is willing to die for their cause


Next the threat is asked what if the entire muslim population rises in revolt

The threat is JK x 20 ONLY

JK has been contained to a slow boil and during the JK revolt 1990 onwards
Indian economy has grown significantly

The next threat is in Assam with 7 mil muslims
and that too can be contained given enough political will
and arming hindu VDC
easier in Assam 65% hindu than in JK 30% hindu

Next we look at east bengal 1971
100,000 pak troops were able to control 60 mil muslims

given enough will to commit ruthless violence against civilians
