Guest guest Posted March 25, 2003 Report Share Posted March 25, 2003 Dear Mr. Medved, Thanks for the time to make a point on yr radio show. However, I didn't get enough time to really make my point. Yes the US media talks about Islamic jihadi attacks against Hindus but all of you miss the main point. The fact is, India is the front line in this war. Over 70,000 Indians have been massacred by these fanatics. Ironically most of the victims are muslims. What worries me is the way the media ignores the big picture. It seems that because the victims are not westerners and are non- judeo christians, its as if India's struggle is unimportant. It is the USA, more than any other country, that has supported Pakistan to the point of actually warring against India(1971). The USA has frustrated India's attempts at justice. It is the USA that has repeatedly threatened India any time it tries to neutralize the enemy.Yet now when that same enemy has dared attack America, suddenly Islamic Jihad is taken seriously. Even then it is only taken seriously when it is against western interests. Thus the media refers to anti-Indian terrorism as militancy. Why? The people in India are quite fed up with this double standard. Rather than cultivating a strong alliance with India, The US has sown distrust and disbelief. That is one reason why the USA has such a lack of credibilty, when it speaks of democracy, justice and freedom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
