PM MODI SUPPORTS ZIONIST ISRAEL: HATRED FOR MULTICULTURALISM UNITES THEM
[The shameless support of India’s PM Modi to Zionist
Israel in its current genocidal aggression of Palestinians should not surprise
anyone as ideologically Hindutva and Zionism are natural partners.]
Those who believe in a world free of hegemonic
ethno-nationalism, Racism, religious bigotry and hatred have rightly taken note
of Zionism and its ally Christian Zionism, major perpetrators of ethnic
cleansing of ‘Others’. However, the
civilized world with its core belief in multi-culturalism and peaceful
co-existence is oblivious to a no less dangerous threat to the present human
civilization; the Hindutva Zionism. As the term reads it is part of the
Hindutva world-view which stands for an exclusive Hindu India minus Muslims and
Christians. The other religions like Sikhism, Buddhism, and Jainism will have
no independent status but treated as part of Hinduism. The Rashtriya
Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS; National
Volunteer Organization) is the most prominent flag-bearer of the Hindutva
politics whose cadres presently rule India, the largest democracy in the world.
RSS was founded by Keshav Baliram Hedgewar
(1889-1940) in 1925 who was disillusioned with the Indian freedom struggle led
by Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (1869-1948) against the British rule for
believing that Indian nation was a composite entity consisting of Hindus,
Muslims, Sikhs, Christians and followers of other religions living in India.
Hedgewar and his associates aggressively claimed that India was an exclusive
nation of Hindus. For RSS the real enemies were not the British rulers but
Muslims and Christians as they belonged to foreign religions. Thus RSS represented
the militant Hindu nationalism, termed as Hindutva opposed to Gandhi’s
all-inclusive Indian nationalism.
According to the most prominent ideologues of
Hindutva, Vinayak Damodar Savarkar (1883-1966) and Madhav Sadashiv Golwalkar
(1906-73), the Hindutva is true ‘Hinduness’ which should not be reduced to what
is understood as Hinduism. Hindutva is aggressive commitment to the belief that
India is the Father-land and Holy Land of Hindus who are Aryans, speak Sanskrit
language and believe in Casteism. All others are foreign races who,
“must either adopt the
Hindu culture and language, must learn to respect and hold in reverence Hindu
religion, must entertain no idea but those of the glorification of the Hindu
race and culture…must lose their separate existence to merge in the Hindu race,
or may stay in the country, wholly subordinated to the Hindu Nation, claiming
nothing, deserving no privileges, far less any preferential treatment not even
citizen’s rights.”[1]
Golwalkar’s another ‘Holy’ book for the RSS cadres Bunch of Thoughts,
has a long chapter titled as ‘Internal Threats’ in which Muslims and Christians
have been described as threat number 1 and 2, respectively.[2]
Importantly, RSS and
its leading cadres presently ruling India are the most vocal supporters of
Zionism and the Zionist Israel after the West. The renowned Indian author,
Khushwant Singh noted that RSS “supported Zionism and the Jewish state of Israel for no
other reason but that it was forever waging wars against its Arab neighbours
who were Muslims”.[3] The current RSS chief, Mohan Bhagwat like his
predecessors has been calling upon the RSS cadres to emulate Israel to tread
“the path of Israel while serving the cause of nationalism.”[4]
A leading English daily of Israel, the Jerusalem
Post too underlined the fact that “whenever a BJP (Bhartiya Janata Party; a
political appendage of the RSS) government comes to power, the vibrancy in
India-Israel relations reaches new heights.[5]
At the government level Narendra Modi [Prime
Minister of India since 2014] who is also a leading ideologue of the RSS was
the first Prime Minister of India to visit Israel in mid-2017 [almost 70 years after
founding of the Indian Republic] with the then Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu visiting India in early 2018. Both continue to enjoy close friendship
despite Netanyahu no more being the prime minister of Israel. India is one of
the largest importers of Israeli arms but the largest consumer of the surveillance and
intelligence-related equipment. The latest disclosures about the Israel made Pegasus spyware make it clear how India
made large purchases of it for use against lawyers, journalists, politicians
and activists who were suspected to be opposed to the Hindutva politics. On the
surveillance
front the ganging up of Zionist Israel and India is proved by the fact that
India remains the only democracy not to share any information about the purchase
of Pegasus spyware which
has been described as the ‘world’s most powerful cyber weapon’.[6] Concerned by the abstruseness of Modi
government Supreme Court, the highest court of justice of India had to
constitute a committee to find out the truth in October 2021. The report was
submitted in a sealed cover on August 25, 2022. The Bench comprising Chief Justice of India N V
Ramana and Justices Surya Kant and Hima Kohli while accepting the report
informed that the Government of India did not cooperate with the committee.[7]
It was a sad scenario for Indian democracy that rulers of India even refused to
respond to a committee appointed by the highest court of justice whose
deliberations were confidential. For reasons known to the Court only it did not
pass any judgment.
In the meantime, two
renowned investigate journalists; Ronen Bergman and Mark Mazetti relying on
official papers of Israel confirmed that India did buy the Pegasus courtesy Netanyahu.
According to the report,
“In July
2017, Narendra Modi, who won office on a platform of Hindu nationalism, became
the first Indian prime minister to visit Israel. For decades, India had
maintained a policy of what it called ‘commitment to the Palestinian cause,’
and relations with Israel were frosty. The Modi visit, however, was notably
cordial, complete with a carefully staged moment of him and Prime Minister
Netanyahu walking together barefoot on a local beach. They had reason for the
warm feelings. Their countries had agreed on the sale of a package of
sophisticated weapons and intelligence gear worth roughly $2 billion — with Pegasus
and a missile system as the centerpieces. Months later, Netanyahu made a rare
state visit to India. And in June 2019, India voted in support of Israel at the
U.N.’s Economic and Social Council to deny observer status to a Palestinian
human rights organization, a first for the nation.”
INDIA UNDER HINDUTVA RULE FOLLOWS
ZIONIST ISRAEL IN DEALING WITH MUSLIM KASHMIRIS
With the beginning of the 2nd
term of Modi [2019] India witnessed brazen execution of the old anti-Muslim
agenda of the RSS. Article 370 which provided special provisions to guarantee
its distinct character to Jammu & Kashmir State [the only Muslim majority
State in India] was abrogated [August 5, 2019]. A day later, renowned political
thinker, Pratap Bhanu Mehta could not help
writing:
“There are times in the history
of a republic when it reduces itself to jackboot. Nothing more and nothing
less. We are witnessing that moment in Kashmir. But this moment is also a dry
run for the political desecration that may follow in the rest of India. The
manner in which the BJP government has changed the
status of Jammu and Kashmir by rendering Article 370 ineffective and
bifurcating the state is revealing its true character. This is a state for whom
the only currency that matters is raw power. This is a state that recognises no
constraints of law, liberty and morality. This is a state that will make a
mockery of democracy and deliberation. This is a state whose psychological
principle is fear. This is a state that will make ordinary citizens cannon
fodder for its warped nationalist pretensions.
“For, fundamentally, what this change signals is
that Indian democracy is failing. It is descending into majoritarianism,
the brute power of the vote; it will no longer have the safety valves that
allowed inclusion...Not a single one of us can take any constitutional
protections for granted. Parliament is a notice board, not a debating forum.”[8]
The Indian State under Modi has been
religiously following the Zionist Israel in persecuting Muslims and human
rights’ defenders of the region. According to Fernand de
Varennes, Special Rapporteur on minority issues, and Ahmed Shaheed, Special Rapporteur on freedom of religion or belief, in a statement said:
‘“The loss
of autonomy and the imposition of direct rule by the Government in New Delhi
suggests the people of Jammu and Kashmir no longer have their own government
and have lost power to legislate or amend laws in the region to ensure the
protection of their rights as minorities”[9]
The following
report carried by UNO new site proved once again that Kashmir looked like
Palestine under Zionism:
“Since the Indian Government’s 5
August announcement revoking Kashmir’s special status, tighter central
Government control has resulted with access to information and peaceful
protests quashed.
Reports have described a near total
communications blackout in Jammu and Kashmir since the evening of 4 August,
with internet access, mobile phone networks, and cable and Kashmiri television
channels cut off.
The experts expressed concern that the
measures, imposed after the Indian Parliament revoked the
Constitutionally-mandated status of the state of Jammu and Kashmir, would
exacerbate tensions in the region.
‘The shutdown of the internet and telecommunication
networks, without justification from the Government, are inconsistent with the
fundamental norms of necessity and proportionality,’ the experts said in a statement.
‘The blackout is a form of collective
punishment of the people of Jammu and Kashmir, without even a pretext of a
precipitating offence.’
The Government has also imposed a
curfew across Jammu and Kashmir, with massive numbers of troops brought in to
enforce movement and peaceful assembly restrictions, particularly in the
Kashmir Valley.
‘We remind the Indian authorities that
the restrictions imposed by the Indian Government are intrinsically
disproportionate, because they preclude considerations of the specific
circumstances of each proposed assembly,’ the experts stated.
At the same time, information received
suggests an increase in the arrest of political figures, journalists, human
rights defenders, protesters and others.
The experts expressed deep concern
over reports that security forces were conducting night raids on private homes
leading to the arrests of young people.”[10]
Amnesty International released many
reports of the impunity with which Indian State was following the Zionists in
persecuting Kashmiris. In one of these released in July 2015 titled, ‘“DENIED: Failures in accountability for human rights
violations by security force personnel in Jammu and Kashmir’[11]
described in details how Kashmir had turned into killing fields.
AFFINITIES BETWEEN
ZIONISM AND HINDUTVA
1.
God’s ‘Chosen People’: According to Zionism the Jewish people were chosen by God as His true worshippers
and to fulfill the mission of proclaiming his truth among all the nations of
the world. The Hindutva flag-bearers proclaim the same status. According
to them Hindu Race,
“professes its illustrious
Hindu Religion, the only Religion in the world worthy of being so denominated,
which in its variety is still an organic whole, capable of feeding the noble
aspirations of all men…enriched by the noblest philosophy of life in all its
functions, and hallowed by an unbroken, interminable succession of divine
spiritual geniuses, a religion of which any sane man may be justly proud.
Guided by this Religion…the [Hindu] Race evolved a culture, which despite the degenerating
contact with the debased ‘civilizations’ of the Mussalman and the Europeans,
for the last ten centuries, is still the noblest in the world.”[12]
Speaking a language similar to the
Zionists, Golwalkar went on to declare that the world soon will “tremble with
fear”[13] before the ‘Chosen
People’; upholders of the Hindutva.
It is to be noted that MK Gandhi
described as Father of Indian nation without mincing word stated as early as
1938:
“Palestine belongs to the Arabs in the same
sense that England belongs to the English or France to the French. It is wrong
and inhuman to impose the Jews on the Arabs... Surely it would be a crime
against humanity to reduce the proud Arabs so that Palestine can be restored to
the Jews partly or wholly as their national home”[14]
2. Religion as basis of nationality: Both believe that religion is the determining
factor for nationality. Both are against inclusive nationalities.
3. Religious
scriptures as authentic history: For Zionists and Hindutva protagonists, religious
scriptures narrate actual history and any other narrative is unacceptable.
Myths are truths.
4. Genocidal: Zionist organizations and Zionist Israel have been widely condemned for
the genocide of Palestinians and other opponents. Israel is the only state
which has been condemned both by the General Assembly and the Security Council
of the United Nations through more than 200 resolutions since its founding in
1948.
In India we have witnessed a major genocide of
minorities almost every decade in which Hindutva cadres have been found
involved. In these genocides victims have not been only minorities but lower
Castes of Hindus also. It is important to
know that RSS which claims to be a cultural organization is fond of worshipping
arms. It celebrates its foundation day as ''shastr pooja" (worship of the arms) in which
RSS leaders/cadres participate in large numbers.[15] Recently following into
the foot-steps of Zionist Israel RSS-BJP rulers have made bulldozers as a
symbol of punishing Muslims.[16]
5. Demonization of opponents: An important commonality between the two is the
demonization and persecution of anti-Zionists as Anti-Semitic and anti-Hindutva
as anti-Hindu. The renowned researcher of Zionism, Yoav Litvin wrote:
“In fact, anti-Zionists were targeted from before
the foundation of the state of Israel. Today, Jewish pro-Palestinian activists
who support the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement are detained,
punished and even deported.”[17]
In India MK Gandhi (Father of the Nation), anti-Hindutva
intellectuals/journalists namely Govind Pansare, MM Kalburgi, Narender
Dabholkar and Gouri Lankesh were assassinated by the Hindutva zealots for being
anti-Hindu. Arrest of anti-Hindutva intellectuals like Anand Teltumbde, Fr.
Stany (who died during incarceration), Gautam Navlakha, Varavara Rao, lawyer Sudha Bharadwaj, activists
Arun Ferreira, Vernon Gonsalves, Hany Babu, Umar Khalid and hundreds others
under terror laws.
6.
Blatantly Racist: Zionists ruling Israel may harp on the divine
unity of the Jews of the world but in reality Israel is ruled by and for superior
Ashkenazi [European] Jews. In Israel
hatred for dark-skinned African Jews and Sephardi [Spanish speaking Jews] and Mizrahi Jews [Jews from
Central and West Asian countries, many of them Arabic-speaking] is too
glaring to be missed.
In India RSS demands abrogation of the democratic-secular-egalitarian
Constitution and promulgation of Manu Code [Manusmriti] as law of the
land. Manusmriti is declared to be most worship-able after Vedas. It
decrees sub-human status to women and Sudras [lowest Caste in the Brahmanical
Caste system].[18]
Moreover, RSS treats dark-skinned South Indians as inferior.[19]
RSS LINKAGES WITH INTERNATIONAL NEO-FASCIST
ORGANIZATIONS
RSS building a deadly alliance against Muslims & Christians in South
Asia: Editorial in the New York Times
The world has not bothered
to take any notice of a terrorist network developing fast in India and its
neighbourhood between RSS and the two terrorist ultra nationalist Buddhist
groups of Myanmar and Sri Lanka against minorities; specially Muslims in the
region. According to an editorial in The International New York Times [‘Deadly
alliances against Muslims’, October 16, 2014] it was announced by Galagodaththe
Gnanasara, the leader of the radical Sri Lankan Buddhist group Bodu Bala Sena [Buddhist
Power Force] at an international convention in Colombo in September 2014. The editorial disclosed that at the
convention:
“The guest of honor was Ashin Wirathu, a Buddhist radical whose picture
Time magazine put on its July 1 [2013] covers as ‘The Face of Buddhist Terror’…Mr.
Gnanasara claimed he was in discussions ‘at a high level’ with the right-wing
Indian Hindu group Rashtriya Swayam Sevak to form what he called a
‘Hindu-Buddhist peace zone’ in South Asia.”[20]
The NYT editorial also carried Facebook and Twitter congratulatory
messages of Ram Madhav (who kept on shuffling as spokes-person of RSS and
general secretary of BJP) to Bodu Bala Sena. These must be read to know the
depth of linkages between Buddhist terrorist organizations and RSS.
Neo-Nazi mass murderer of Norway, Anders Behring Breivik’s linkages with
the RSS
On 22 JULY 2011 Breivik massacred 77 youth belonging to the Norway’s
ruling Labour Party at a youth training camp on
the island of Utøya. It was no sudden carnage by
some mad person. Breivik had planned
it for years. Just before the attack he had released on line ‘A European Declaration of
Independence’ which declared war against the devils; cultural Marxism,
Multi-culturalism, feminism, emotionalism, humanism, and egalitarianism.[21]
In this case, too, the world took almost
no notice of the critical fact that Breivik’s manifesto laid down a plan of
co-operation between Neo-Nazi movements of Europe and “Hindu Nationalist”
organizations of India. Out of 1515 pages of Breivik’s manifesto 102 pages dealt with the glorification of Hindutva movement of
India.
It emphasized that it
was essential that these two “learn from each other and cooperate as much as
possible” as “Our goals are more or less identical.” This manifesto specially
mentioned the name of the fountain head of the Hindutva politics, RSS and its appendages
like BJP, ABVP (Akhil Bhartiya Vidyarthi Parishad; student appendage of the
RSS) and VHP (Vishwa Hindu Parishad; RSS appendage to bring the world under
Hindutva hegemony) as partners.[22]
Importantly, the manifesto pledged military support “to the nationalists in the
Indian civil war and in the deportation of all Muslims from India” as part of a
larger campaign to “overthrow of all western European multi-culturalist
governments”.
How critical is the
danger of RSS becoming a rallying point of all the neo-Fascists of the world
can be gauged by the fact that the former according to its own admission was
active in 39 countries with the nomenclature, Hindu Seva Sangh.[23]
The RSS has not uploaded data after 2015 in this regard. There must be many
more countries where it could be functioning covertly. The civilized world can
risk overlooking this most lethal danger on its own peril.
