Gee whiz. Do you think it a coincidence that Muslims are on the front lines of oppression in Kashmir, Syria, Burma, Yemen, Palestine, China, Sudan, Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Libya, & elsewhere? Do you think a murderous persecution of Muslims has become the gestalt of our times?

Want to know how absolutely lost Tariq Ali is politically? He is promoting Tulsi Gabbard on his Facebook wall. As a leading figure of the ‘left’, he ought to know. He has edited a book on Kashmir and should be disturbed by her associations with Hindutva nationalism and Modi.
“It amazes me how Indian liberals believe that military occupation will bring peace in Kashmir.”

There is a video on Twitter of Hindutva nationalists drinking & dancing in the desolate streets of Kashmir to celebrate the lockdown of Kashmiris. Do you remember during Israel’s seven-week bombing siege of Gaza in 2014 when Zionists in the hills of Sderot, Israel overlooking Gaza pulled up easy chairs, sucked down beers, waved Israeli flags, cheered on the bombers, & turned genocide into a spectator sport?

“You think this will stop at Kashmir ? It will be Assam next and then West Bengal and then the constitution and finally the democracy you cherish. I see you celebrating and wonder whether I should laugh at your ignorance or worry about your complicity. #Kashmir”

Yesterday, there was a student protest at Dhaka university in Bangladesh for #FreeKashmir #StandwithKashmir
Protest for Kashmir this coming Thursday in Manchester, UK
A deeper analysis of India scrapping Article 370 needs to be made but basically India has turned Kashmir from an occupied country into a colonial settler state–as Israel has turned Palestine into bantustates. India is adopting & forcibly imposing the Israeli model on Kashmiris, encouraging Hindutva settlers to move into Kashmir to change the demographics of the country when under Article 370 they were unable to buy land in Kashmir. That will not stop the struggle for Azaadi–it will intensify it–but it will also generate more aggression by the Indian Army, more suffering for Kashmiris, & many more deaths.
India out of Kashmir.
“Birds of a feather flock together.
This is not a Honeymoon. This is two war criminals, one oppressing Palestinians & the other Kashmiris. They are entangled in business & India is buying half of Israels weapon production. Made in Israel, tested on #Gaza & sold for use in #Kashmir”
