The Indians hate Muslims.

And everybody hates the Jews. (with apologies to Tom Lehrer)

My parents had one or two Tom Lehrer albums in the 50s/60s. Poisoning Pigeons In The Park was one of my favorites.

Actually, India has always had very good relations with its Jewish minority and with the State of Israel.

The only aggression against Jews in India in recent times occurred when the Nariman House in Mumbai was bombed in 2008.

The culprits were not Indian, but members of a terrorist group operating from Pakistan called Lashkar-e-Taiba, who had been on a bombing spree which claimed a total of 175 lives, mostly Hindus.

Thank you so much for tossing that in there. TWTWTW (TW3) was a favorite of mine as a kid, and my LP copy of TWT Year TW got played so many times it wore out.

I went to his Wikipedia page just now and was pleased to learn two things: That he is still alive at 93, and that he recently (2020) donated all his songs to the Public Domain.

Lehrer is an anti-establishment legend; a left-leaning one, but in the Old-School Democrat style. I occasionally get one of his songs stuck in my head, but unlike more modern songs, I know all the words, and smile.
