Sounds familiar...
Anti muslim, free market head of state? Now &THERE& is an H1-B I could get behind.
Sounds like a good guy to me....
Several Freepers have commented to posts I made that Modi is an evil, anti-Muslim bigot. Of course, they don’t exactly adhere to all the facts.
A under-appreciated fact is that no other non-muslim country has suffered the most from islam through pogroms and terrorism for the last 1300 years than India.
Anti Islamist, distrustful of sweet peaceful Pakistan, and capitalist to boot!!! Quick, run away, we’re doomed!!!!!
My very conservative buddy Raj, that runs the quickie mart down the road,
sees the election of Narendra Modi as a very positive step.
Read with a box of salt in one hand and a barf bag in the other. The NR is simply not an unbiased reporter.
The deal is, while I can agree with Modi’s anti-Jihadist and Capitalist views - the fact remains that Modi’s BJP party is not just hostile to Muslims - but to Christians as well.
Modi and his party are ‘radical Hindus’ who seek to expel ‘foreign’ elements from India’s culture - which includes Christianity.
BJP party members are said to be largely responsible for intimidation, beatings and persecution of Christians in many rural areas of India that I have been to. Several brethren conveyed these facts and fears to me just a few weeks ago while elections were going on.
Christians there understand that Modi represents the Caste structure of India under the Hindu system - and Modi to them will usher in a greater wave of anti-Christian and anti-American/English bias as his party seeks to ‘purify India’ and return it to it’s ‘mother religion’.
That an official of the BJP party told Muslims in India to ‘get out’ and go to Pakistan or elsewhere is as frightening to Christians in India as well as to the 13% of Muslims who live in India.
How can one be TOO ANTI-MUSLIM?
On a policy level, Modi’s has presided over strong economic growth in Gujarat, although his state has not done as well on various social development indicators.
That is probably why there was strong economic growth...
It is impossible to be “too” anti-Muslim.
Catholics are concerned the Hindu’s will start burning Churches again Following the Muslims Lead!
Sounds familiar...
This sounds like they were describing Ronald Reagan circa 1980.
I would have to know what his main opponent was like to really weigh in. In many elections it is a choice between lesser of evils.
Are they sure it wasn't Obama that won the election?
Indian society has shown a disturbing willingness to disregard freedoms of speech and expression, and the country's institutions are often weak in defending these encroachments.
Sounds like our lovable Democrats.
Modi has never shown any interest in civil liberties; nor has he made the slightest positive noises about the communal violence that still frequently afflicts the country.
Yeah, the knockout game is a gas, isn't it, Lefties?
Narendra Modi has been the victim of the longest
running defamation campaign in India’s political history.
It’s more than a decade since 2002 when media,left-
liberal mafia,Islamists & communists and congress
propaganda machine started their hate campaign
against Modi.If one looks at the propaganda then she
finds that same lines are being repeated every time and
not only this but same propaganda has been going on
for the last 60-70 years against nationalist forces! But
opposition to Modi and the systematic mis-information
campaign and slandering against him is the most shrill
ever seen in India. It is therefore, necessary to analyse
why Modi has attracted so much hostility that opposing
forces have abandoned even the basic precautions of
wearing the masks this time.
The world needs more of such dangerous men.
As opposed to a mere landslide?
Must be from the Department of Redundancy Department.
Where was the negative again?
