Violence is common everywhere in the world. Death of innocent people is also sadly very common. Witness the list of school shootings in the US, going back to 1764. Even at this moment the FBI is looking for a 19 year old student armed with a rifle. A truck bomb in Oklahoma city in 1995 killed 168 people, including children. People have been killed for race as in a shooting in a black church in Charleston, in the US. Of course, no one can ever forget the Holocaust which killed 6 million people, only because they were Jews. Large numbers of people have been killed for religion. A shooting in a Gurudwara in Wisconsin, in the US killed 6 in 2012. Indian Prime Minister, Rajiv Gandhi was killed by a Tamil female suicide bomber in 1991. The Hindu Tamils were fighting for greater autonomy in Sri Lanka because of Buddhist intolerance. The filthy mass murderer, Churchill killed 3 million Bengalis by stealing our grains for British troops fighting in the far east. This villain combined both racism and religious hatred in one sentence when he said," I hate Indians. They are a beastly people with a beastly religion." He meant Hindus. Religious cults have resulted in deaths of hundreds. But all the incidents, vile as they all are, have been regional. Until now. Terrorism is now a global phenomenon, affecting virtually every country in the world. Why, what is the common link? It is religion. There is Boko Haram in Nigeria, Al Shabaab in Somalia, ISIS and the Al Nusra front in Syria, the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Hamas in Gaza, and the many branches of Al Qaeda, including Al Qaeda in the Indian Subcontinent. There is terrorism in the south of Thailand and in August a bomb at the Erawan shrine in Bangkok killed 20 people, including 14 foreigners. We are especially lucky in India. We have the Indian Mujahideen and there have been numerous attacks over the years, supported by a whole army of liberals who deny its existence. Our neighbor to the west, Pakistan, has no other ambition as a nation than the destruction of 'Hindu' India and to that end supports the Taliban, Let, JeM and many more such scum that it is impossible for anyone, claiming to be a human being with the slightest decency, to even contemplate. This global terrorism is the result of a narrative of being victimised by every religion on earth, by democracy, by trade and by each other, resulting in a venomous hatred for everyone outside their immediate group. Why are Syrians, Afghans, Iraqis, Libyans, Pakistanis, Bangladeshis, all trying to get into Europe if western people are trash, who drink alcohol, mix freely with women and believe in science. Because they hope to convert Europeans and establish Sharia. That is why 81% support ISIS. Turkish fans booed during one minute's silence before a soccer match for those killed in Paris. Last word to Charlie Hebdo," They have guns.... we have champagne." Champagne is expensive, we will toast with beer.
