Talibans in Afghanistan only destroyed non-Muslim structures. We have a government in Tamilnadu which believes in total obliteration of all Hindu heritage in the name of âPeriyarismâ. The common people of Tamilnadu have already declared themselves against the anti-Hindu and anti-God philosophy of âPeriyarismâ. The number of common people visiting temples everyday in every district in Tamilnadu has reached astronomical proportions today. No popular government believing in the rule of ballot (not bullet!) can afford to ignore this patent fact.
According to Will Durant, âAs a result of fanaticism, thousands of temples which had
represented the art of India through a millennium were laid in ruins. We can never know, from looking at India today, what grandeur and beauty she once possessed. India before Islam was one of the most advanced civilizations of all time. The Islamic invasion of India was probably the bloodiest story in historyâ.
It will not be fair to compare anti-Hindu and anti-Rama men like Karunanidhi with Emperors like Aurangazeb. Aurangazeb was a devout Muslim and true to his faith. According to historical records, he prayed to the Supreme Allah in Mecca in the thick of a battle in which he was leading the forces against the Uzbeg Chiefs of North Western India. On the contrary, Karunanidhi has said âThe word Hindu itself means a Thiefâ.  Against this background, it is highly amusing to read the infantile statement of K R Periyakaruppan, Tamilnadu Minister for Religious and Charitable Endowments (HR & CE) to the effect: âThe DMK led government has been more Hindu friendly than earlier regimesâ. The whole world knows today that how very Hindu-friendly Karunanidhi and his DMK Government are, mainly on account of their total commitment to the wholesale destruction of Rama Sethu.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Where did Karunanidihi get this "The word Hindu itself means a Thief"?
