Re: RIP - Sushma Swaraj ji

OH SHANTI!
She was an amazing statesman and will be missed. She was truly an indomitable statesman. I watched one of her lectures on Sanskrit and it was truly amazing. Why do so many of Bharat's son's and daughters perish before their time?

Re: Remembering the 1971 war

The short film Mukti, was excellent -- I loved it! I wish we had more films like these to highlight the achievements of our armed forces. The genocide by the Bakistan army and the perfidy of western nations in supporting the genocidal regime of Bakistan should be highlighted in movies like this!

In my opinion they have refused to see the elephant in the room. Molenbeek is Malsi central and they should have had constant HUMIT on that place. They should have gamed all this after the arrest.
