China being a Communist and Japanese have kept the Green Brigade under check and hence less radicalization. Other than Xinjiang Province, Muslims doesn't belong in the Han race. Here in India they are running amok, Thanks to the Pseudos and INC. So don't tell me Sauds have not exported the Militant version of your religion in places like Kerala, Bengal etc. You can always play the victim card. Its your choice What is the ethnic connection between the Indian and Palestine Muslims ? Nothing really. Its just your Global Brotherhood BS.
:confused: What are you on about? How am I playing the victim card? Please explain. When did I ever say that there is any ethnic connection between Indian and Palestinian Muslims? My global brotherhood? Its pretty difficult for me to be anyone's brother. :hmmm: Instead of making valid, on topic points you are ranting about absolutely random and unconnected stuff. First you talk about Muslim appeasement, and then you talk about oil and wahabism. What is the connect between India-Israeli relations and wahabism? What does Vijay Dinanath Chauhan have to do with Daffy duck? I figured out your approach. You introduce random terms and outlandish conspiracy theories into discussions , and when asked for an explanation, label the questioner as playing the victim card. Brilliant!!! Imma gonna try this in my next group discussion. :nice:

Palestine would fare even worse but they have the backing of oil rich OIC. Add to this our own domestic muslim electorate who cannot help but stay beholden to their pan-religious identity. Last assembly elections in Bihar, Laloo and Paswan had an Osama look alike accompany them to rallies. If they could, our politicians would invite Hafeez Saeed to canvass for them.[/b[
On another thread in the Politics section, I came across a post by the poster "saneindian" in which he had written in some detail about this Osama look alike. Apparently, the gent is a philanthropist of some sort and has generously donated to local charities/NGOs. Unfortunately for him, he happens to look like Osama. For all we know, the crowd pull factor could also be due to his philanthropy and not just his physiognomy. Just saying. I'm not denying that the likes of Laloo/Paswan are beyond employing such tactics. Neither am I denying that *some* Indian Muslims might eulogize Osama, but IMO, this kind of stuff has no broad based appeal. It is a repulsive tactic, and the people rejected Paswan and his silly antics.

Here is what a simple google search yielded for me.
Paswan employs Osama clone .... Party sources said that Khalid Noor is a young man from Narpat Ganj in Bihar. He had sought an election ticket from Paswan only on the ground that he looked like Osama, but Paswan had turned it down. However, he decided to make use of him for campaigning. The youth himself likes to be called 'Laden', saying that no one will remember his real name. http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2005-01-19/india/27853397_1_ram-vilas-paswan-bin-osama

^^^ Fair enough. The search function on ICF isn't really very good, or else I would have searched for that post and the link that 'saneindian' posted. I wasn't making any judgement, just reiterating the various views on the topic that I came across. This whole episode is shameful, to say the least. That a politician canvases using a terrorist look alike. And whats worse is that he perceives the lookalike will fetch him votes. Speaks volumes about what he thinks about the Muslims in his constituency. Whether that perception is real or false, one can only guess. But I hear Paswan horribly lost those elections. So there still is hope.

Lol. :confused: The word 'platonic' isn't idoneous in the context of Indian Israeli relations. Its a strategic partnership/ business relationship. An example of a platonic relationship- the one between Ranbir Kapoor and Konkona Sen Sharma in wake up Sid.
Actually platonic has another connotation, i.e. theoretical and idealistic, rather than actionable. In that context, it would apply.

Get real. Not denying that Palestine may have a lot of emotive value for some Indian Muslims' date=' but its a non factor when it comes to voting.[/quote'] kaangress have something else in their dirt minds

Did the winner use a better Osama look alike? Just asking? I think you are being naive if you think religious sentiments and religious extremists are not popular especially when it comes to gaining votes. Each and every party uses them whether they be Islamic Jihadi prostitutes or Bajrang Dal bastards or Christian pedophiles. It's the same with all parties and it is rather sad that our population still votes on these divisive tactics. The reason Paswan lost may not be because the local Muslims found the idea of a Osama look alike "repulsive". Just saying

Don't know. Bihari politics is not something that I follow with a keen interest. But I believe the winning party/coalition used Shatrughan Sinha, who, in his days, was quite a terror too. :P And we all know where he stands vis a vis freedom of speech and expression. "Abey Khamoosh" et al.

May be. May not be. But the reason he didn't win is because the people (Muslims included) of Bihar ( or that constituency at the very least) didn't find the idea of Osama lookalike attractive enough either. Can we get back to discussing the Indian-Israeli partnership?

Nothing sinister. I was playing around with the Osama thingy that's all. You can aim your guns elsewhere now :winky:
