Thanks for taking my point of view in right way. As regards my response to killings of hindus. Well I know the secular problem too well. They have been howling from the top of there voice at gujrat but nothing happens to those hapless kashmiris. So the problem of desensitisation to hindu problems are way too much. The challenge to india and hindus from islamists is not even acknowledged by our secular people( kashmir problem is a terrorial problem and not a islamic jihad). In no untold terms should it be expressed as a problem of islam which has killed thousands of people in kashmir of which the worst hit are kashmiri pandits, ironic and immediately gujrat becomes the biggest every ethnic cleansing.
Of all the hypocrisy this thing takes the cake. Kashmiri pandits are languishing in jammu without basic aminities but all the media attention of seculars goto Muslim Peronal Law, there haz subsidy and all those problems.
So as i said lets get down to it, lets expose them. Lets expose these bastards by not becoming islamists but by setting up systems of truly secular credentials. Where a spade is called a spade. Where an islamic jihad is not called a freedom struggle. Lets get down to business. By saying that muslims are bad does not solve the problem, by pointing at there ghettos those ghettos will not go away, we have to work and expose it. There is the deobandi madarass in UP. How much analysis and research has gone into looking into such hate spewing institutions. I have read Arun Shourie's book on fatwas and there history. It is a great source and also a great method to expose them. I know the ghettos. I have lived in Ranchi for 15 years and know the feeling of even going through hindpidi, a muslim majority region. And you know why these regions have become so, because congress has not been secular. It has not taken to task those people who create and spread hatred. So lets expose that. Lets expose the literature. The secular media will not print it. Somebody else will and in todays environment of global war the public perception can be taken along with this thing.
We can and should fight for what we want and not driven by our adversaries agenda, and as a reactionary way to just counter them and in turn finish ourselves. We should know what we cherish and want and then expose. As regards my approach being bookish or impractical. Generally some of the best political theories have come first from book. The greatest example is the booklet written by gandhi on hind swaraj. He wrote it in 1908 and implemented it latter with improvisation. All major political movements have been initiated by small think tanks which latter became movements and phenomenon. Indeed the congress movement also started as an intellectual exercise which became the lifeline of indian political movement. Without theory there is no practise. The only difference is that either the theories are well researched and thought out or not researched and hence loose steam midway.
