Indian Islamists and their Pakistan love
The rousing welcome given to the Pakistan cricket team in Hyderabad proves beyond all doubt that the separatist, anti India mindset of the Razakars is still alive among Muslims in India. In Kerala, the Muslims openly erupt in celebrations whenever an Indian wicket falls to a Pakistani player.
While most Muslims in other parts of India may give some wishy washy explanation that they are just supporting good performance, the Muslims of Kerala say, “We are Pakistanis and are supporting our team. Do what you want.” In the 1990s, a news journalist at a leading Delhi newspaper was transferred to Ahmedabad.
When he reported for work on his first day at the Ahmedabad news bureau, he saw a group of 3-4 employees going around distributing ladoos. Since it wasn’t a festival nor a Tuesday, he was wondering what they were handing out sweets for. Soon they came up to his desk and said, “Sir, mithai khayeeye.”
The journalist asked what the occasion was. The group leader proudly said, “Hamari team jeet gayi.” (Our team won.) That’s when the journalist realised the previous day Pakistan had won a cricket match against India. He would later say he had covered a lot of shocking news in his career but a group of Muslim colleagues in Ahmedabad brazenly distributing sweets at India’s defeat was so shocking that he froze for a couple of minutes, unable to react or respond.
Anyone who doubts that many Muslims in India are pro Pakistan are living in a fool’s paradise. If there is a full fledged war against Pakistan, there will be large scale sabotage of Indian military operations. India is not only involved in a civilizational war but also an existential struggle against an enemy that is present both outside and within its borders.
In fact, the internal saboteurs are more dangerous because you never know when and where they will strike. This is the 2.5 War that General Bipin Rawat warned against.
