Global Jihad to Congress’ role: 16 things J Nandakumar said about the 1921 Malabar massacre of Hindus by Moplah Muslims

J Nandakumar, the all-India convenor of Prajna Pravah, an organisation affiliated with the RSS, speaking during a program hosted by the Youtube channel Panchjanya in the centenary year of the infamous Moplah Massacre, a forgotten chapter of Indian history, said that the communist distorians and Islamist history writers who have tried to distort and mispresent Indian history, have also glorified this massacre, depicting it as a freedom struggle.

Congress and the Communist government in Kerala paying pensions to the Moplah rioters: J Nandakumar

Until today, attempts are being made to depict the 1921 brutal Hindu genocide as a freedom struggle. The Congress and the Communist government in Kerala have gone to the extent of hailing the Moplah rioters by giving them the title of ‘freedom fighters’ and ‘martyrs’ and also providing pension to the Jihadist elements who fanned the bloodbath, said Nandakumar, adding that the Communist government has been using taxpayers money to pay pensions to these mass murderers.

The all-India convenor of Prajna Pravah said that on the completion of 100 years of the infamous 1921 Malabar massacre of Hindus by Moplah Muslims, it becomes imperative to understand the historical background of the Hindu genocide carried out by Moplah Muslim fanatics demanding a Caliphate in Malabar.

Pan-Islamic movement that swept the world in the twentieth century has resurfaced

“Many people ask me why I think it’s necessary to dig up the skeletons after 100 years. Firstly, there is a saying that if you do not understand history you are doomed to repeat it, so it is important to understand the historical background of the incident. Secondly, we have seen how fundamentalist, communalist and Islamic terrorist elements have engaged in acts of violence and terrorism throughout the world. The pan-Islamic movement that swept the world in the twentieth century has resurfaced”, said J Nandakumar.

He further added that if one considers the International scenario, the Islamist fundamentalists all over the world have declared Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan as their ‘only hope’ and have used Turkey as the epicentre for spreading terrorism. Many Islamic organisations operating in India like the Popular Front of India (PFI) or the Jamaat-e-Islami or the ones trying to create unrest in Jammu and Kashmir have openly given statements recognising Erdogan as their leader.

Islamists promoting ‘Khilafat 2.0’

He also mentioned how programs to promote ‘Khilafat 2.0’ are being held in higher educational institutions in various places. Many of you must have observed how placards and banners promoting Khilafat 2.0 had appeared during anti-CAA programs and processions organised in various places including Kerala, Jammu and Kashmir, Karnataka, Delhi etc.

PFI rally in Kerala parades chained people dressed in RSS uniform, depict the Moplah massacre of Hindus

The RSS Pracharak remembers how the Popular Front of India (PFI), an extremist Islamist organization, chose to do a rally in Kerala parading men dressed in RSS uniforms, depict the Moplah massacre of Hindus.

OpIndia, on February 19, 2021, had reported about the incident. The rally was held in Tenhipalam town in Malappuram district of Kerala. The Popular Front of India (PFI) had paraded men dressed in RSS uniforms. The men being paraded were also chained. The audio and visuals from the rally had confirmed a lot of Islamic chanting, including Allahu Akbar, la ilaha illallah Muhammad Rasulullah, and others chanted during the procession.

Islamist fanatics trying to spearhead another incident similar to the 1921 Moplah massacre: J Nandakumar

J Nandakumar revealed how during that procession carried out by PFI in Kerala, one chant which could be heard persistently and loudly was: “humane jo talwar uthaya tha 1921 mein, woh humne samundar mein feka nahi abhi bhi humare haath mein hain”, roughly translated as “the swords we picked up in 1921 was not thrown away in the oceans, it is still in our hands”.

What does this mean? It only goes on to suggest that these Islamist fanatics are trying to spearhead another incident similar to the 1921 Moplah massacre.

Kerala- the epicenter of Jihad

Thirdly, why it becomes important to understand the history of the Moplah riots is that many Islamic fundamentalists are trying to spread all sorts of jihad in the country. From ‘love jihad’ to ‘land jihad’ to ‘food jihad’ to ‘narcotics jihad’, the fanatics are doing everything in their capacity to spread such hate campaigns across the country.

J Nandakumar added how recently Bishop Mar Joseph Kallarangatt of the Pala diocese of the Syro-Malabar Church has stated that young Christian boys and girls of Kerala are being targeted for not just ‘Love Jihad’ but for ‘Narcotics Jihad’ too.

The recruitment into ISIS is also on the rise in our country. Along with this, there is this latest development in Kabul where the Islamic fundamentalists are at the helm of affairs. The RSS activist raised concerns that several analysts have warned that now Pakistan with the tactical support of the Taliban would again try and spread terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir.

All of the foregoing data were necessary to explain because they are the result of the blunders committed by the Hindu or the nationalist society during the 1921 Moplah Massacre, lamented J Nandakumar. They did not muster the courage to fight back against the Islamist fanatics and the result was that the estimated Hindu deaths of the ethnic cleansing in the Moplah massacre tantamounted to somewhere around 10,000 and it is believed that as many a 100,000 Hindus were forced to leave Kerala in the wake of the riots.

What happened in 1921 has a long history

The so-called Moplah Rebellion or the Khilaf movement, as believed by a lot of people, did not happen suddenly. What happened in 1921 has a long history. Though a lot of cities like Kanpur, Kolkata were affected, Kerala bore the worst brunt of the Khilafat movement’s ill effects.

J Nandakumar asserted that the beginning of Islamic terrorism in Kerala dates back to 1766 when the Islamic tyrant Hyder Ali conquered Mysore. Conflicts between Muslims and non-Muslims started during his regime. After Hyder Ali, his son Tipu Sultan carried on the legacy.

Tipu Sultan’s atrocities led to the mass exodus of Hindus from Malabar

Tipu Sultan was one of the most ruthless Islamic invaders in South India. There have been several recorded instances of Tipu’s army forcefully converting, raping and kidnapping Hindus on his orders. Many temples are recorded to have been demolished under his reign. It was under his regime that many Hindus were driven away from Malabar.

Delving into the past, J Nandakumar further informed how mass Hindus exodus from Malabar was carried out. Half the Hindus dwelling in Malabar in Kerala fleed leaving behind all their wealth and property, so that they could save their life and dignity. Mass conversions and murders were carried out. Several Hindu women were brutally raped and assaulted.

Moplah Muslims became landlords by acquiring huge swathes of land and property left behind by the Malabar Hindus

The army of Tipu Sultan, who harboured extreme animosity for the local Hindus and tribals in the area, ruthlessly hacked Hindu men, women and children to death. After killing, the bodies of Hindu men, women and children were dumped in the river. Fearing death, half of the Hindu population flee Malabar, leaving behind an immense expanse of fertile lands. The best quality of teak in the world was cultivated on these large swathes of land which the Hindus just left behind.

Tipu Sultan distributed all these lands in between the Moplah Muslims. The Muslims who then after acquiring such large masses of land, became the zamindars or the landlords and established their supremacy in Malabar and the other Northern parts of Kerala.

Between 1792 to 1921 Malabar witnessed as many as 82 large scale anti-Hindu riots

Then in 1792 Tipu Sultan lost and he had to leave Malabar. During that time, the majority of Hindus who had fled came back and reclaimed their land that was illegally distributed amongst the Moplah Muslims by the Islamic invader. This incident profoundly affected the psyche of the people of Malabar and the rift between Muslims and non-Muslims, especially Hindus began to widen.

After 1792, the spate of communal violence in Malabar increased. From 1792 to 1921 Malabar witnessed as many as 82 large scale anti-Hindu riots. The Hindu genocide in Malabar in 1972 was a continuation of the series of carnage that began in 1792.

Congress purposely ignored the brewing anti-Hindu sentiment to spearhead the Khilafat movement

Here, J Nandakumar remarked that Congress extended its support to the Khilafat movement without trying to grasp its impact. He blamed Congress leaders for dismissing the sensitivity of the circumstance and ignoring the obvious hatred against the Hindu Kafirs thriving in the hearts of the Moplah Muslims.

He said that it was obvious that the Moplah Muslims in Malabar were always ready to attack the Hindus, with or without any reason, still, the congress gave a green signal to the Khilafat movement. The Congress provided the Moplah fanatics with a reason, under the grab of the Khilafat movement, to wreak havoc and indulge in the mass murder of innocent Hindus.

After Congress joined hands with Khilafat leaders Malabar witnessed the first gruesome attack on Hindus

In 1920 an alliance was made between Khilafat leaders and the Indian National Congress and on August 20, 1921, Malabar witnessed the first gruesome attack by the Moplah Muslim community on the innocent Hindus.

The protagonist of this Islamist project, Kunjahammed Haji by spearheading the Khilafat movement, established Al-Daula (Islamic State) where he imposed jizya (religious tax) on the Hindus of his territory.

Congress glorified the Khilafat movement as a part of India’s struggle for Independence

The so-called secularist Congress glorified the Khilafat movement as a part of India’s struggle for Independence, said that RSS Pracharak, adding that the eminent Congress leaders propagated that the Khilafat movement was one where Hindus and Muslims fought together to oust the British, later, due to some distortions, riots occurred. This is what Congress has been proclaiming, but, the reality is far from what Congress wanted people to believe. “It was not started as an Independence struggle”, asserted the piqued RSS activist.

Irrespective of what Congress said, the fact is that it started as a part of a pan Islamic movement.

J Nandakumar goes on to further discuss the intrinsic nature of these particular sets of Moplah fanatics. They are terrorists driven by extremist ideologies, said the RSS Pracharak.

The seeds of the Khilafat movement were sown during World War One

Trying to establish how old and deep-rooted is the hydra of Islamism in India, J Nandakumar informed that on September 1, 1914, Mappila leaders of Malabar assembled at Himayathul Islam Sabha Hall and appealed to the community members to join hands with Britain. Before the First World War, David Lloyd George, British prime minister (1916–22) had given a clarion call asking Muslims to support Britain in World War 1 and in return he had promised to keep the Khilafat, the fight for the Caliph of Islam, alive.

Then the Muslims all over India, especially in Kerala had offered prayers in each mosque for the success of the British.

The British, however, were more cunning. After their victory, they dismantled Turkey’s Ottoman Empire and declared many regions as independent states. They restored Hagia Sophia as a Christian sanctuary.

This led to the birth of the Khilafat movement which was launched by Indian Muslims to support the preserve the authority of the Ottoman Sultan as Caliph of Islam following the breakup of the Ottoman Empire at the end of the war.

What happened at the Thuvoor well that led to 38 Hindus being slaughtered by Muslim fanatics during the Moplah genocide

Taking about what has gone down the history as the Hindu Genocide day, J Nandakumar reminisced how on the black day of 25th of September 1921, on the barren hillside between Thuvoor and Karuvayakandi in North Kerala Chambrassery Imbichi Koithangal, one of the Khilafat leaders, held a rally with over 4,000 of his followers. During this meeting, more than 40 Hindus were caught hold of and taken to him with their hands tied behind their backs. 38 were murdered. 3 of the 38 were shot but the rest were beheaded and thrown in the Thuvoor well.

He added that Annie Besant, who had visited Malabar, chronicled one such act of brutality on a Hindu pregnant woman who was so brutally murdered that her body lay on the street with her stomach hacked open by a sword with the unborn foetus strewn outside the woman’s body. 

To foil the attempt to whitewash the 1921 Moplah massacre the truth should be revealed

J Nandakumar, near the end of the event, discusses how critical it is for the Moplah Massacre, which has been largely forgotten, to be brought to light. He suggested that Hindus come out in large numbers to show their solidarity for the countless Hindus who have been massacred and their descendants who have yet to recover from their losses. The reality behind the so-called Moplah Rebellion must be revealed, as must, the Islamist apologists’ attempt to whitewash the Islamist jihadist Moplahs’ carnage, said J Nandakumar.

It may be noted that while speaking in the same program, the Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath had also slammed that left historians who have been whitewashing the 1921 Malabar genocide of Hindus as a peasant uprising.

This incident serves as a grim reminder of how Jihadi elements have shamed mankind. We must give serious consideration to how India might be liberated from such Jihadist ideology, said Yogi Adityanath.

Even 100 years after the horrific 1921 Moplah massacre, the wounds of one of the bloodiest communal pogroms documented in Indian history remain fresh in the Hindu psyche. OpIndia has published a detailed report on the Moplah genocide of Hindus and 25th September 1921, the day when 38 Hindus were slaughtered and thrown in a well by a Muslim mob demanding a Caliphate in Malabar.

In front of PM Modi, Biden certifies that American liberal media is worthless lapdogs: Here is how

How does one treat lapdogs? As it turns out, not with a whole lot of respect. The American elite went all out for Joe Biden. They were out there cleaning his messes even before he could make them. In February 2020 itself, they got together and ruled that any discussion of the lab leak theory had to be suppressed. Because the media, the so-called experts, and of course the Big Tech censors all agreed. The pandemic had to be Trump’s fault.

Over the next several months, their fellow Americans died by the hundreds of thousands. Millions of people lost their livelihoods. Across the world, there was untold misery. The human and economic cost was on a scale not seen since the 1940s. But the American elite held on to the party line. Do not blame China. In New York, the liberal governor, a key ally of Biden, sent fifteen thousand elderly Americans to Covid deaths in nursing homes. The American elite had their mouths tightly shut. When they spoke, it was to praise the liberalism of Governor Andrew Cuomo and to label themselves “Cuomosexuals.”

Then, a month before the election, a laptop emerged, with emails leading to the allegation that Biden’s son Hunter had been selling access to his dad for years. Possible clients would include shady regimes and dodgy businesses around the world, from Libya to Ukraine. But the media maintained a stony silence over the scandal. It was “Russian disinformation,” they ruled. When the New York Post dared to report on the story, Big Tech locked their social media accounts.

What did the American media get in return for such loyalty? Yesterday, President Biden humiliated the American media in front of PM Modi.

Tweet by RNC Research

Before we dissect this further, let us relish what just happened. For over two years now, the American liberal media have made it their mission to abuse PM Modi. They have called him authoritarian, fascist, human rights abuser, compared him to Nazis and the like. And here is their Supreme Leader himself — President Joseph R Biden Jr., the biggest liberal in the world, humiliating the American media in front of PM Modi.

That was pretty sweet, I must say.

By the way, what happens now to the many Gunga Din experts in India who work for the American media establishment? Will the American media keep throwing crumbs at them? Let us take a moment to relish the anxiety of the paid trolls among Indian liberal classes who are fearing for their livelihoods right now. Does this mean no more consultancy fees from think tanks or foreign fellowships to produce rants on freedom, democracy and feminism?

These Gunga Dins got so high on their own supply that they thought Biden would stick it to Modi. Instead, Biden made it a point to put the media in their place in front of PM Modi. This is what happens when the tail tries to wag the dog.

And it wasn’t just in front of PM Modi.

Article by Independent

Three days ago, President Biden did much the same when he sat down Boris Johnson, the Prime Minister of Britain. In fact, it was somewhat worse. Biden didn’t even address the American media. His team kicked them out of the room, without the President even acknowledging their presence.

This is what happens to lapdogs. Because people with real power know how to put lapdogs in their place. What’s the lapdog going to do anyway? Apparently, some reporter at the Washington Post protested weakly, managing to tweet “not good, folks.” Awww…

You see, a lapdog cannot survive in the wild. Because they gave up their hunting skills, and possibly even their barking abilities, a long time ago. Like any pet, a lapdog is able to wag its tail and follow its owner. The problem however is that the lapdog is not a pet. Because the owner does not see the lapdog that way. The loyalty is purely one sided. It is good to see the American media finding out the hard way.

Rahul Gandhi against 75th Independence Day celebrations? The Gandhi leader uses the Assam eviction of illegal squatters to spew venom against India

Rahul Gandhi against 75th Independence Day celebrations? The Gandhi leader uses the Assam eviction of illegal squatters to spew venom against India

Ever since PM Modi came to power in 2014, the Congress party is using all the means at its disposal to mount an opposition to him. In their bid to attack PM Modi and discredit his government, the party has often resorted to ways that run against the interests of the country. Be their stand on Jammu and Kashmir or Citizenship Amendment Act or more recently the farmers’ law, painting the country in a bad light has become the hobbyhorse of the Congress party.

This Congress legacy of ceaselessly defaming India was taken forward by senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi when he posted a tweet today, expressing his disapproval of Independence Day celebrations across the country.

“When the poison of hatred is being spread in the country, then what kind of Amrit Mahotsav? What is freedom if it is not for everyone? #Assam” Rahul Gandhi tweeted.

India on August 15, 2021, celebrated its 75th Independence day. It was on August 15, 1947, that India became an independent, sovereign, democratic country, which was no longer under the occupation of the British. A slew of events under the banner “Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav” are being organised across the nation to mark the 75th year of India’s independence.

But for Rahul Gandhi, the momentous achievement of having completed three-quarters of a century as a thriving, democratic, sovereign country poised to become an economic powerhouse and cultural centre was perhaps not an occasion to be celebrated. Instead of partaking in the Independence Day commemorations, the Gandhi scion used the opportunity to deride India and belittle its achievement.

Gandhi scion refers to the Assam incident to denounce India’s 75th independence day celebrations

The Wayanad MP referred to the recent incident in Assam to assert that it is not an occasion to celebrate the country’s independence. A few days back, videos of the eviction drive carried out by the Assam police to weed out illegals squatting on Indian land had gone viral on the internet. In the video, the illegal sqautters were seen menacingly charging at the police personnel who had gone to vacate the land.

The vicious attack by the illegal squatters was responded to in kind by the Assam police officers. A day after the eviction drive conducted by the administration in Darrang district in Assam turned violent, Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma addressed the media to dispel the rumours doing the rounds on the internet. He said that the eviction drive was initiated with an agreed principle that landless will be provided 2 acres each as per land. “Peaceful drive was agreed upon, then who instigated the mob of illegal encroachers,” questioned the CM.

But before Himanta’s press conference, the usual suspects, who would rather have the encroachers and other unlawful immigrants such as Rohingya occupy Indian land, fell over themselves to weave a spurious narrative to demonise the Assam police and paint the aggressors as victims. They launched a concerted attack against the BJP government, alleging that the eviction drive was a bigoted plan by the RSS to evict Muslims by labelling them as Bangladeshis.

This narrative was lapped up by the opposition parties, who treated it as an opportunity to hold Himanta Biswa Sarma’s feet to fire and denigrate the BJP government in the state as ruthless and barbaric. Rahul Gandhi, too, seems to have embraced this line of attack that legitimises the claim of illegal encroachment on Indian land and calls into question the conduct of the police that had gone to reclaim the land that belongs to the country.

In his attempt to tarnish the reputation of PM Modi and the BJP, Rahul Gandhi had no qualms in spewing venom against India. The fact that the police was carrying out an eviction drive against implacably hostile encroachers of Bangladeshi origin had no bearing on the Gandhi scion. Congress and Rahul have long been accused of acting against the interests of the country, and the recent tweet by the Gandhi scion reinforces the notion that their pathological hatred for PM Modi has inevitably morphed into hatred for the country.

Gandhi’s tweet implies that he is in support of the illegal squatters who have unlawfully laid claim to vast tracts of land in Assam. This is pretty much in accordance with the Congress party’s unstated stance, where unlawful occupation is normalised so as to cultivate them as a vote bank. However, this is done at great peril to India’s national security and its independence, which it has strived hard to protect and preserve.

Rahul Gandhi belittles India’s achievement of thriving as a healthy democracy in its 75th year

Surviving the vicissitudes of time and still functioning as an independent country, with a vibrant democracy and healthy institutions is no mean feat. A cursory glance at the countries neighbouring India gives a glimpse into what could have gone wrong in these 75 years and how the institutions and framework designed by the architects of our constitution have helped the country in charting its intended course without going astray.

For a large part of its existence, India’s arch-nemesis and northwest neighbour, Pakistan, has been ruled by a military dictatorship. The assaults inflicted by years of dictatorship has severely undermined the democratic institutions in the country. As a consequence, even though PM Imran Khan is said to be democratically elected but it is widely believed that he is just a figurehead leader of Pakistan and it is the all-powerful Pakistani Army which calls the shot.

Similarly, the situation in Afghanistan is grim. The United States recently pulled out of its two-decade-long effort to establish democracy in the country as the Taliban was making rapid gains in the countryside. Then in a swift and almost bloodless coup, the Taliban stormed into Kabul and staked its claim to power, overthrowing the US-backed Ashraf Ghani government. The situation in Afghanistan continues to remain volatile as Afghans gird themselves for the return of the tyrannical rule of the Taliban that was witnessed during their regime from 1996 to 2001.

These are but two instances when democracies have frittered away gains made by them. Perhaps, the Gandhi scion does not realise the immensity of India’s achievement to continue existing as a functioning democracy. Perhaps, he and his party, Congress, are so desperate to topple PM Modi that they don’t mind India degenerating into Pakistan or even worse, into Afghanistan, if that can help them in their efforts to stall the Modi juggernaut.

‘Ford Foundation Fellows group is a breeding ground of left-wing extremism’: Whistleblowers reveal the ‘charity’ group’s bias

‘Ford Foundation Fellows group is a breeding ground of left-wing extremism’: Whistleblowers reveal the ‘charity’ group’s bias

The Ford Foundation, an American charitable organisation, which casts itself as a group engaged in advancing human welfare is in reality is a cesspool of intolerant and bigoted left-wing extremists, whistleblower emails quoted by Christopher Brunet on his Substack KarlStack revealed.

These left-wing ideologues and extremists, the whistleblowers claim, go to great lengths to propagate their communist views while advocating cancel culture and harassment against those who dare to voice opposing views and dissenting opinions.

The Ford Foundation Fellows’ ‘unofficial’ listserv, which is a private channel and open to existing and past Ford Foundation Fellows, is dominated by radicals who use the platform to push for persistent groupthink that is in line with extreme left-wing ideologies, one of the whistleblowers’ who is the member of the group for over two decades and has first-hand experience of discussions happening in the listserv said in an email.

“The group consists of academics whose membership in the Fellowship Programs claims to ‘seek to increase the diversity of the nation’s college and university faculties by increasing their ethnic and racial diversity, maximize the educational benefits of diversity, and increase the number of professors who can and will use diversity as a resource for enriching the education of all students’. This couldn’t be further from the truth,” the whistleblower said.

Those who do not conform to the left-leaning worldview and dare to present opposing ideologies are viciously attacked, discredited, criticised, accused of “provocation” or “racism”, and sometimes even doxxed, just because their views did not jibe with that of the left-wing bullies.

Source: Karlstack

Similarly, another whistleblower also shared what has been going on unabated on the Ford Foundation’s listserv. The whistleblower asserted that the Fellows listserv is dictated and hijacked by a coterie of radical left-wing extremists that attacks anybody who does not agree with their tenets. It is the hotbed of critical race theory and anti-racist ideologies that is promoted by leftwing academia around the world and funded by the Fellowship Program.

The whistleblower highlighted the risks associated with voicing unpopular opinions and evil practices employed by the left-wing bullies to discourage others from raising such views. “If you speak up and people do not like your ideas, you risk being looked up online, on Linkedin, etc. and your profiles are shared with the listserv,” the whistleblower added.

The usual suspects that dominate the listserv and control the narrative all come from post-modern, critical theory disciplines and are at the forefront to block out criticism and dissent. “This listserv is a “progressive” authoritarian feeder into society and a major culprit in the recent attacks on our Constitution,” the whistleblower was quoted as saying on the KarlStack.

Yet another whistleblower came out in open about the rampant left-wing extremism being promoted on Ford Foundation’s listserv. The person in question thought of using it as an opportunity to engage in intelligent conversation with “educated people”.

However, the person was in for a rude awakening as she was pilloried, denounced and ridiculed, with left-wing ideologues telling her off and pontificating that she had never suffered or faced injustice. She was also told that she was abusing the fellowship by her “hurtful”, “ignorant”, “racist” words and that she should be removed from the listserv. Questions were also raised on her mental health.

Part 2 of the quotes from emails cited by Karlstack

In addition to this, someone in the group also notified her university that she held racist views, after which a colleague was sent to question her and report back. “I have not been allowed to teach since, and have been passed over for all open positions in Chemistry and Biochemistry for which I am qualified. I did continue to try to get a rational discussion going, but the abuse was so personal and virulent, I finally quit trying – I was SHUT UP, to my shame,” she lamented.

“The Ford Fellowship is simply ANTI WHITE, and in my view ANTI AMERICAN because they wish to divide our nation according to our skin colour, and give power to those who agree with their political agenda. That is ANTI DIVERSITY and UN-AMERICAN. I am very sad that American tax dollars go to support this government-created, government-sanctioned political activist organization,” the whistleblower said in her email.

Condemning the behaviour in strong terms, the whistleblower said Ford would turn over in his grave for the kind of ideologies that are nurtured and propagated at the Ford Fellowship, adding that the National Academies should rethink the structure, leadership, and mandate of the organization.

The fourth whistleblower quoted on KarlStack reminisced about an incident from 2018 when a fellow member was viciously attacked for having conservative views. The victim was called a troll, provocateur etc. and was harassed for vocalising her thoughts. In order to save herself from the attacks, she had to resort to self-censor by leaving the group, the whistleblower said.

She was called a troll, provocateur, etc. and was harassed for her views. She left the listserv, and like so many others, self-censored to avoid such attacks. The exchange that happened to this individual should be made public and condemned. This listserv should be exposed and the Fellowships Program left-wing authoritarian agenda should be made public.

These revelations bring under the spotlight the Ford Foundation, which has continued to largely operate as a charity organisation for years now. However, the latest account of the group by the whistleblowers reveal that it is nothing but an echo chamber of left-wing extremism, where not only contrasting opinions are trashed but those voicing them are subjected to severe and unsparing attacks.

The shenanigans of the Ford Foundation in shoring up left-wing causes in India

The revelations made against the Ford Foundation by the whistleblowers are shocking but not entirely surprising since the group has a storied history of bankrolling the causes championed by left-wing supporters, including that in India.

In 2015 the Government of Gujarat while investigating Teesta Setalvad’s embezzlement case came across funding by Ford Foundation to her entities. It was found that her trust had violated FCRA norms. Sabrang Communication and Publishing Pvt Limited, with which Teesta is associated, received $ 2.9 lakh from Ford Foundation as a grant to “address communalism, caste-based discrimination in India, including media strategies”. 

Later, a letter was issued by the Gujarat Police, following which the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) expressed its intention of probing the activities of the Ford Foundation. This probably set off a chain of events, most of which happened in the background and was later revealed by Wikileaks.

As per the leaked emails, Ford Foundation claims that they got embroiled in a controversy over its funding to Sabrang Trusts managed by Teesta Setalvad. The letter titled Ford Foundation in India: Notes to John Podesta dated May 26, 2015, also mentions their funding to Arvind Kejriwal’s NGO before he got into politics as a possible reason for Government’s action.

This was confirmed by none other than one of the leading luminaries of the Indian left-wing firmament, Ms Arundhati Roy. In an interview with Sagarika Ghose, Roy talked about one of the articles that she wrote for The Hindu in which she alleged that NGOs of Kejriwal and Sisodia had received over $400,000 from Ford Foundation in three years of time. Roy claimed that the group of ten people who were the top ‘management’ of the movement had well-funded NGOs. She said that three core members of the team had won Magsaysay Award which is also funded by Ford Foundation.

Medical journal The Lancet dehumanizes women, calls them ‘bodies with vaginas’: Here’s what inspires such insults

The war on gender by the ‘Woke’ Left has not been too kind to women. Apart from having to compete with biological men in sporting events, women have also had the misfortune of being called names that are wildly offensive. ‘Menstruators’ and ‘vulva owners’ are only a couple of those. Now, esteemed medical journal The Lancet has gone one step ahead and labelled them “bodies with vaginas”.

Historically, there has been a name to address such ‘bodies’; women they are called. But in the New World Order, gender represents just another obstacle that must be overcome so that our ‘Gender Identity Overlords’ (GIOs) can reign supreme.

Along expected lines, The Lancet received a great deal of criticism on social media for their insulting description of women. But that is unlikely to inspire any introspection on their part. The GIOs are convinced of their assumed moral superiority, and nothing could deter them from their path.

Needless to say, women are not too happy with the phrase that was used to describe them.

The War on Gender

The war on gender, and biological sex, has gained widespread acceptance among the medical fraternity fairly recently. The mainstream media, which has been at the forefront of it as the flagbearer of ‘woke’ politics, has jumped on the bandwagon only in the past five or six years.

The ‘Woke’ camp engages in biological denialism with great fervour, it is the central theme of their philosophical doctrine. Insulting terms such as ‘menstruators’, ‘bodies with vaginas’ stems from the idea, endorsed by the ‘Woke’, that biological sex itself is a myth.

Over the past few years, there have been loud proclamations from very influential people that biological sex does not exist and is a myth.

Some argue that biological sex is not a “fixed scientific concept” and a “spectrum”.

The dehumanising words used to describe women flows from this central idea. Now, stating ordinary facts such as that only women menstruate and only women can get pregnant is sufficient enough to attract a torrent of abuses and threats. Just ask J.K. Rowling.

The Lancet does not use insulting words for men

For some reason, however, the medical journal did not use some twisted phrase to describe men. While raising awareness about prostrate cancer, they did not call men “people with prostrates”, or whatever might be the appropriate term. They simply decided to use the word ‘men’.

Surely, if men can menstruate, which is the reason why women have been reduced to “bodies with vaginas”, it logically follows that women can also have prostrate glands. But The Lancet does not appear to care about such naturally gifted ‘women’.

The theology of Woke politics collapses under the weight of its own inconsistencies. Therefore, it’s almost pointless to debunk their claims with “facts” and “logic”. But, perhaps, it is precisely the reason that almost the entire ‘intellectual class’ in the West has become its most devoted adherents.

As Curtis Yarvin, or Mencius Moldbug as he likes to call himself, says, “In many ways nonsense is a more effective organizing tool than the truth. Anyone can believe in the truth. To believe in nonsense is an unforgeable demonstration of loyalty. It serves as a political uniform. And if you have a uniform, you have an army.”

‘Arsonists disguised as fire-fighters’: India slaps Pakistan in UN General Assembly using ‘first right of reply’ after Imran Khan’s speech

On Saturday (September 25), Indian diplomat Sneha Dubey lambasted Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan for trying to internationalise the Kashmir issue at the United National General Assembly (UNGA). The Indian diplomat used India’s first right to reply after Imran Khan made several allegations against India in his speech at the UNGA.

In his virtual address [pdf] at the UN on Friday (September 24), Imran Khan had alleged, “The worst and most pervasive form of Islamophobia now rules India. The hate-filled ‘Hindutva’ ideology, propagated by the fascist RSS-BJP regime, has unleashed a reign of fear and violence against India’s 200 million-strong Muslim community. Mob lynching by cow vigilantes; frequent pogroms, such as the one in New Delhi last year; discriminatory citizenship laws to purge India of Muslims; and a campaign to destroy mosques across India and obliterate its Muslim heritage and history, are all part of this criminal enterprise.”

Khan further claimed that the Indian government had been mulling a ‘final solution’ to resolve the 70-year-dispute through ‘illegal and unilateral measures. The Pakistani Prime Minister alleged that India had captured senior Kashmiri separatists, abducted 1300 young Kashmiris, imposed lockdown and killed 100s of people in fake encounters. “We have unveiled a detailed dossier on gross and systematic violations of human rights by the Indian Security Forces in Occupied Jammu and Kashmir. This repression is accompanied by illegal efforts to change the demographic structure of the occupied territory, and transform it from a Muslim majority into a Muslim minority,” he said.

The Pakistani Prime Minister blamed the Indian State of ‘barbarity’ and ‘forcible snatching of the dead body of separatist Syed Ali Geelani. “Devoid of any legal or moral sanction, this action was even against the basic norms of human decency,” he went on with his outlandish claims. “Sadly, the BJP government has intensified repression in Kashmir and continues to vitiate the environment by these barbaric acts. The onus remains on India to create a conducive environment for meaningful and result-oriented engagement with Pakistan,” Imran Khan concluded.

Response of Diplomat Sneha Dubey to Pakistani PM Imran Khan

On Saturday (September 25), Indian diplomat and First Secretary Sneha Dubey exercised the ‘Right to reply’ and demolished the allegations levelled against India by Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan. She began by slamming Imran Khan for raking up India’s internal matter i.e Kashmir on a global platform. Accusing the Pakistani Prime Minister of spreading falsehoods and tarnishing India’s image, Dubey added that Pakistan is an arsonist living under the garb of a firefighter.

“While such statements deserve our collective contempt and sympathy for the mindset of the person who utters falsehood repeatedly, I am taking the floor to set the record straight. We keep hearing that Pakistan is a ‘victim of terrorism. This is the country which is an arsonist disguising itself as a firefighter. Pakistan nurtures terrorists in their backyard in the hope that they will only harm their neighbours. Our region, and in fact the entire world, has suffered because of their policies. On the other hand, they are trying to cover up sectarian violence in their country as acts of terror,” she remarked.

Sneha Dubey reiterated that the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of India and asked Pakistan to immediately vacate its occupied territory (PoK). She pointed out how Imran Khan had misused global platforms to peddle anti-India propaganda while harbouring homegrown terrorists at the same time. The Indian diplomat emphasised how slain terrorist such as Osama bin Laden was found in Abbottabad in Pakistan.

“Even today, Pakistan leadership glorify him as a martyr. Regrettably, even today we heard the leader of Pakistan trying to justify acts of terror. Such defence of terrorism is unacceptable in the modern world. However, it is for Islamabad to work sincerely towards creating a conducive atmosphere, including by taking credible, verifiable and irreversible actions to not allow any territory under its control to be used for cross border terrorism against India in any manner,” she added. Dubey said that Pakistan has the highest number of UN-designated terrorists.

While speaking about the atrocities on dissenters and religious minorities, she concluded, “This is a regime where anti-Semitism is normalised by its leadership and even justified…Dissenting voices are muzzled daily, and enforced disappearances and extra-judicial killings are well documented…Pluralism is a concept which is very difficult to understand for Pakistan which constitutionally prohibits its minorities from aspiring for high offices of the State. The least they could do is introspect before exposing themselves to ridicule on the world stage.”

Right of reply at the UN

At the United Nations, delegates are allowed to make two interventions on a topic during meetings. This is known as the right of reply. India used the ‘first right of reply’ means it was the first intervention made by the Indian representative at the UN responding to Imran Khan’s speech. India can present a second reply using the second right of reply, if it so desires. According to UN rules, the first reply should be limited to 10 minutes, while a maximum of 5 minutes is allowed for the second reply.

Enforcement Directorate issues fresh summon to Maharashtra minister Anil Parab for questioning in Rs 100 Cr bribery-extortion racket

The Enforcement Directorate has issued a fresh summon to Shiv Sena leader and Maharashtra transport minister Anil Parab for questioning in the money laundering case registered against former Maharashtra home minister Anil Deshmukh and others.

The 56 years old Anil Parab, who also holds an additional portfolio of parliamentary affairs in the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) led by chief minister Uddhav Thackery, has been directed to appear before the south Mumbai office of ED on September 28.

ED on September 6 had also called Regional Transport Office (RTO) officer Bajrang Kharmate for questioning in this case, who is said to be close to the minister.

This is the second summon the ED has issued to Anil Parab. The ED had issued him the first summon on August 31, but he had declined to appear citing official engagements.

The ED wants to question transport minister Anil Parab in connection with the Rs 100 crore bribery cum extortion racket in the Maharashtra police establishment as alleged by former police commissioner Param Bir Singh. The Bombay High Court had asked the CBI to probe the allegations of corruption that had led to the resignation of Anil Deshmukh as home minister in April.

The name of Anil Parab has surfaced among key conspirators of this scam. The disgraced former cop Sachin Vaze in his letter to the National Investigation Agency (NIA) had named ministers Anil Parab and Anil Deshmukh besides others for running an extortion racket, alleging that he was asked to collect extortion money from businesses.  

Sachin Vaze had claimed that in the month of July/August 2020, he was called to the official bungalow of Anil Parab. During the meeting, Anil Parab told Sachin Vaze to extort Rs 50 crores from officials of Saifee Burhani Upliftment Trust (SBUT) to end an inquiry. Sachin Vaze further stated that in January 2021, Anil Parab once again called him at his official bungalow and asked to look into the fraudulent contractors listed with BMC. Anil Parab asked him to collect at least Rs 2 crores each from 50 such contractors.

Later, Param Bir Singh had confirmed that Sachin Vaze had informed him about the same after he was removed from the post of Mumbai Police Commissioner.

In the letter, Sachin Vaze had claimed that Bajrang Kharmate handled transfer posting related work for Anil Parab. Last month, ED carried out searches at premises Bajrang Kharmate in Pune.

This three-time Shiv Sena MLA, who is a lawyer by profession, was inducted into the MVA cabinet in December 2019.

Video of Bhim Army’s woman state president Seema Singh threatening to bomb Yogi Adityanath goes viral, police files a case: Details

Social media platforms were recently awash with a video of Bhim Army’s UP woman state president Seema Singh, who is seen hurling invectives at chief minister Yogi Adityanath and threatening to blow him up with a bomb. In the video, the woman was also seen threatening to string up SP and DSP of UP Police at the crossroad. The video has since then gone viral on various social media platforms and has evoked sharp responses from people, who demanded strict action against the Bhim Army functionary.

Soon after the video was widely shared on the internet, Bareilly police took cognisance of the viral clip and initiated action against Seema Singh. A case has been filed against her at Sirauli police station and an investigation has been initiated. Inspector KK Verma says that a case was registered against Seema Singh on the night of 20 September and a probe is underway.

In the video, Seema can be heard repeatedly referring to a person named Bunty, whose release she had sought from the police on several occasions. She says she was compelled to make this video because the police have refused to heed her. As per a report published in Dainik Jagran, a minor scuffle between the children of Bunty and Mahesh living in Sirauli town escalated into a full-blown fight between the two families. When the police came to know about the clashes, they challaned the people of both sides for breaching the peace. According to the police, on the same day, a woman named Seema Singh, who claimed to be a woman state president of Bhim Army, had recommended Bunty to be released over the phone.

However, the police paid no heed to Seema’s phone call and did not release Bunty. After the incident, Seema created a video venting her spleen against the UP Police and threatening Yogi Adityanath with dire consequences.

“…the police have directly arrested Bunty. How long will we bear all this? We are not going to tolerate police high-handedness. What is this happening in UP? No complaint, no action against Manuvadis. On the contrary, the police acted against Bunty. How long will this dictatorship last? Others might suck it up, but I won’t. I am not going to tolerate this. I will break all the stars on the shoulders of SP, DSP and hang them in the middle of a road, and Yogi Adityanath Baba, I am not Seema Singh if I don’t blow up a bomb in your lungi. I am the woman state president of Bhim Army. Take note of my face or stop atrocities on Dalits. Yogi Adityanath, I will remove all your Thakurgiri. This is a dictatorship. Note this face. In the future, you should pay attention to who I am,” she said.

Seema says, “Within 6 months If I don’t get you killed and buried, my name is not Seema Singh. I will avenge everything you have done to us. Neither can you act against the killers, nor against the rapists, all you could do is use your power against a woman. All your Thakurgiri will end once you come in front of me. My name is Seema Singh. I belong to a lion’s family, not from a vulture family. I am not like you, who kills others by taking the help of women. If you are a human, behave like one. We are Bhim soldiers. We know how to talk with respect and make others do the same. We are lions. You can try intimidating us but we won’t be frightened.”

From 5 Bidens in India to PM Modi’s 5 Ts, QUAD, COVID and more: Here are 4 points discussed when PM Modi and President Biden met

On Friday (September 24), Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Joe Biden spoke for about 20 minutes and attended over an hour-long meet in Washington. This was the first in-person meeting between the duo since Biden was elected the President of the United States in January this year. The meeting was attended by Antony Blinken (US State Secretary), EAM S Jaishankar, NSA Ajit Doval and others.

The Quest for the missing ‘Biden’

During their meeting, Joe Biden recalled receiving a letter in 1972 from an individual named Biden in Mumbai. At that time, the incumbent US President was 28-years-old and was sworn in as a Senator. He regretted not being able to follow up on the ‘Biden’ who had supposedly married an Indian woman and settled in Mumbai. But, he added that the Indian media had then claimed about the existence of 5 such Bidens in the country.

Soon after, the US President clarified, “I said jokingly that I found out there’s a Captain George Biden who was a captain in the East Indian tea company…The end result was that he (George Biden) apparently stayed and married an Indian woman. And I have never been able to track it down… so the whole purpose of this meeting is to help me figure this out…” In a jovial tone, PM Modi said that he had brought all the necessary documents to help trace his lost family.

“You talked about Biden surnames. You had mentioned it to me earlier too. I tried to hunt for the documents and I have come with some documents. Maybe those documents can be of some use,” PM Modi added to the humour. The reporters at the Oval Office burst out into fits of laughter. “I am relieved,” Biden emphasised. Reportedly, the incumbent US President had made similar claims during his trip to India’s financial capital in 2013. He was also seen reiterating the same remarks at another event in Washington in 2015.

Shared values of democracy and diversity

Ahead of his scheduled meeting with PM Modi, Joe Biden informed that he would be hosting the Indian Prime Minister in the White House. “This morning I’m hosting Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi at the White House for a bilateral meeting. I look forward to strengthening the deep ties between our two nations, working to uphold a free and open Indo-Pacific, and tackling everything from COVID-19 to climate change,” his tweet read.

The US President had emphasised during the meeting that both India and the United States are capable of resolving global challenges. Joe Biden added that the relationship with India will get tighter, closer and stronger. “Back in 2006, I had said that by 2020 India and the US will be among the closest nations in the world,” he remarked. Joe Biden also underlined that the partnership between the two countries is based on the commitment to upholding democracy and diversity.

PM Modi had tweeted, “Had an outstanding meeting with Joe Biden. His leadership on critical global issues is commendable. We discussed how India and USA will further scale-up cooperation in different spheres and work together to overcome key challenges like COVID-19 and climate change.”

PM Modi-Biden meet: Mahatma Gandhi and PM Modi’s 5Ts

Given that the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi is round the corner, Joe Biden emphasised the importance of the values upheld by the ‘Father of the Nation.’ He added that the message of Gandhi towards tolerance, respect and non-violence. While the US President lay emphasis on Quad, climate change and Covid-19, PM Modi talked about the 5Ts i.e. Talent, Technology, Trade, Trusteeship and Tradition. He pointed out that the upcoming decade will bring about transformation in India-US relations and joint commitment to traditions and democratic values.

PM Modi remarked, “There are more than four million Indian Americans who are participating in the journey of the progress of America. When I look at the importance of this decade, and the role that is going to be played by this talent of the Indian Americans, I find that the people to people talent will play a greater role and Indian talent will be a full partner in this relationship. And I see that your contribution is going to be very important in this.”

The Indian Prime Minister talked about ensuring stability in the Indo-Pacific region. Highlighting the significance of technology, he pointed out the need for utilising the opportunities for the benefit of humanity. “Between India and the United States, the trade will continue to assume importance, and we find that the trade between our two countries is actually complementary. There are things that you have and there are things that we have, and then we in fact complement each other. I find that the area of trade during this decade is also going to be tremendously important,” he said on the issue of bilateral trade.

PM Modi-Biden meet: Fighting Climate Change and significance of Quad

The Indian Prime Minister also emphasised on the need to protect the planet. Citing the example of the Father of the Nation, PM Modi remarked, “Mahatma Gandhi always used to talk about the principle of trusteeship, trusteeship of the planet. It means that the planet that we have, we have to bequeath it to the following generations, and this sentiment of trusteeship is going to assume more and more importance globally, but also between the relations between India and the United States.”

While speaking on Quad, Joe Biden said that the United States, Japan, India and Australia share the same world view and are focused on resolving key challenges with a common vision. The US President, in this context, said, “Our vaccine initiative is on track to produce an additional 1 billion doses of vaccine in India to boost global supply.” PM Modi added that the Quad would play the role for global good through positive thinking and approach.

Left historians whitewashed 1921 Malabar genocide of Hindus as a peasant uprising: What Yogi Adityanath said about Jihadis shaming mankind

On the completion of 100 years of the infamous 1921 Malabar massacre of Hindus by Moplah Muslims, Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath spoke on a program hosted by a Youtube channel named Pnachjanya. The UP CM remembered how over 10,000 Hindus were brutally slaughtered in one of the worst communal genocides recorded in the annals of Indian history.

It was rather unfortunate that the Moplah genocide of Hindus and the Khilafat movement leading up to it is shamelessly whitewashed. Some named it the Moplah Rebellion, while others called it a repercussion and effect of Muslims’ wrath over the Khilafat movement’s failure. These people claimed that the Zamindaars tortured Muslims in Malabar in 1921. If this was the case then why thousands of Hindus were massacred. Is it only because the Hindus refused to convert, Yogi questioned.

Yogi Adityanath furthered said that the communal pogrom was originally appropriated as a peasant uprising by Marxist and leftist historians to suit their ideological narratives and requirements and to win over a large organised vote-bank for the Left parties. He added that Vinayak Damodar Savarkar was one of the first ones to describe the Malabar Massacre as an anti-Hindu genocide through his book Moplah, which became hugely popular when it was published in 1924.

Even Dr B.R. Ambedkar has provided a detailed account of the incident in ‘Pakistan or The Partition of India’ and strongly condemned the brutal and unrestrained barbarism which was perpetrated freely by the Moplas upon the Hindus. 

Yogi Adityanath further informed that during those days there was a lot of anti-Hindu sentiments in Southern India which was further stirred by the politicians supporting the Khilafat movement, resulting in the infamous Malabar genocide of Hindus by Moplah Muslims.

Theosophist and one of the most respected figures in India’s struggle for freedom during the 20th century, Annie Besant had also written about the barbarity inflicted on the Hindus during the Moplah Massacre in her book The Future of Indian Politics.

The valiant soldiers of the Gorkha regiment and other military units who were despatched to troubled parts of Malabar to quell the genocide of Hindus by fanatical Moplahs in 1921 valorously fought to save the Hindus from the Moplah fanatics.

This incident serves as a grim reminder of how Jihadi elements have shamed mankind. We must give serious consideration to how India might be liberated from such Jihadist ideology, said Yogi Adityanath.

The wounds of one of the worst communal pogroms recorded in the annals of Indian history remain fresh in the Hindu conscience even after 100 years of the infamous 1921 Moplah massacre. OpIndia has published a detailed report on the Moplah genocide of Hindus and 25th September 1921, the day when 38 Hindus were slaughtered and thrown in a well by a Muslim mob demanding a Caliphate in Malabar. The report can be viewed here.
