I think all pieces falling into place: Jihadi/Nazi alliance of allies from US and woke CJI for 2022 for regime change.

Another front has been opened by Nikkamma in WH.

Upcoming US Ambassador to India, LA Mayor Garcetti says, 'Groups that are actively fighting for human rights of people on the ground in India will get direct engagement from him'. Garcetti adds that speaking against discrimination will be a Core piece of his engagement with India
This is in line with the Indian-American "think tank" that wrote about "engaging indian states" bypassing the center,a.k.a. "direct diplomacy" with Indian states -- and these humanitarians in the USA are supposed to a "strategic ally". \ "Speaking against discrimination" is the new cry to push christian evangelism in india. Hope the GoI treats this democrat admin with the contempt it deserves.

This "engage subnationalities directly" was also repeated by Brookings "analyst" Tanvi Madan and Indian-american (CONgressi think tanks) -- the uprising in Christian Nagaland has all the marks of western interference in the region, since destabilizing myanmar seems to be topping the list of the "Triad" and EU. India is working with myanmar's regime, and suddenly we have christian groups in Nagaland announcing that they create their own space that India has no control over.

https://indianexpress.com/article/north ... y-7673223/
On Monday, the Konyak Union, the apex body of the Konyak Naga tribe, announced a number “non-cooperation regulations”, including total restriction of Indian Military force convoy and patrolling, no military recruitment rallies within Mon district, and non-acceptance of developmental packages from the forces. It had also directed customary landowners to denounce past land agreements allotted to set up military base camps in the area.

What is not mentioned is that Konyak are a christian separatist group that is now challenging the Indian Union -- more fronts are being opened in the BD-Myanmar border, where the USA has openly been supporting the BD-jihadis and their leader Khaleda Zia against the India's friendly Hasina govt.

From wikipedia:
The Konyaks were the last among the Naga tribes to accept Christianity. In the past, they were infamous for attacking nearby villages, often resulting in killings and decapitation of the heads of opposing warriors. The decapitated heads were taken as trophies and usually hung in the 'baan' (a communal house).

There is definitely something cooking on the Bangladesh front.

Hillary Clinton, as Obama's SOS, was very openly pro-BNP/Khaleda Zia and her J-e-I allies. Interestingly, Hillary Clinton also conducted her own "subnational" outreach to Mamata Banerjee as well (I don't recall if she personally flew to Kolkata to meet her but definitely the conduit was there).

The corresponding player in the United States is ICNA-- an organization founded by East Pakistani war criminals who collaborated with the TSPA to perpetrate the Hindu Bengali genocide of 1970-71. These founders fled the new nation of Bangladesh and were welcomed by the Nixon administration into the United States. It is thanks to their continuing political influence that the USA does not (even to date) officially recognize the fact of a Bengali genocide. A detailed analysis of ICNA's linkages can be found here: https://www.meforum.org/islamist-watch/ ... t-e-islami

Essentially ICNA is the bridge between US politicians and the JeI/BNP axis in Bangladesh-- and with jihadi movements in eastern India. This is a group with formidable political and media influence in Washington DC, and orchestrates many hate campaigns in the USA against both India and Hindu-Americans. These days, they have become at least as powerful as the ISI-sponsored Paki lobby in DC used to be... if not more so.

A BNP/JeI-led Bangladesh is much more likely to assume a MuNNa position for the United States (compared to India) in the case of any conflict with China. Of course it would have nowhere near India's capabilities to contribute to a QUAD military effort against China. However, it may be far more willing to let itself be used as an American condom, a-la Zia Ul Haq's Pakistan, than India ever would.

That would make some in Washington consider Bangladesh a much more vital ally in the Indo-Pacific than an India that has enormous capabilities but wants to keep its options open.

Moreover, a BD condom could be useful against both China and an uppity India if necessary. Don't for one minute think the experiences of 9/11 have altered the fundamental American view of using Islamism as a proxy strategic weapon, especially in the era of 4th-generation warfare. The fact that Pakistan Mark 1 has gone over to China's side (and proved itself an untrustworthy partner after 20 years in Afghanistan) only means that US is now courting Pakistan Mark 2 (Eastern division) all the more ardently.

You want to see how powerful ICNA is in the United States?

Here are responses received by two Hindu Americans who wrote to US Senators expressing their concerns on the current jihadi atrocities and massacres against Bangladeshi Hindus. Look at the equivocation from Senators Robert Casey (D, PA) and Cory Booker (D, NJ). They essentially endorse a false equivalence by saying that Muslims in India are being equally badly treated by the Hindu Nationalists, and all religious persecution of minorities is condemnable etc.

In fact, the implication that politicians/government officials are directly involved in promoting persecution of religious minorities is stronger for India (at least in Robert Casey's response) than Bangladesh.

Just read the response by Robert Casey. It mentions several mosques being burned in India as retaliation. This is an absolutely fake news.

Till some years back i used to think that these people are "misled" or really do not know as to what is happening on the ground.

Now it is amply clear that these people are "knowingly" being "led" by Islamists.

Imagine, when being asked to comment of Bangladeshi Hindu persecution by Muslim fanatics, he does whataboutry about India & that too totally fact free.

If he is on record of making such statements directly to the GOI, there is no reason Garcetti should get a diplomatic visa. However I doubt GOI have the guts to do that. Better would be to haul him in front of a parliamentary enquiry to question him and have him state his position on record to the GoI, then kick the SOB out of India.

Make no mistake. The deep state in the US is now back and are proceeding with their agenda. We had a 4 year hiatus, and wish we could have got another 4 years, but now have to be prepared. I suspect the DC establishment will try to make trouble in UP elections. Should the BJP not get majority, will be danger for the 2024 election and the entire country as a whole.

They wouldn't dare ! The state dept. pulled the plug on Taiwan's presentation recently just because the Taiwanese minister showed Taiwan and China in different colors. India is a like a punching bag for neo-marxists, humanists, islamists, radical leftists, pro-china shrills, evangelists, pakis, lankans, beedis etc. everyone wants to feel good about themselves by bashing us.

Meh, Biden and Dems are in total disarray and staring at a massive mid term route. They've got no time to deal with anything significant atm, apart from some clownish woke tokenism like we saw with the democracy summit. US is absolutely in the pockets of the corporates, as long as Apples and Fords and others are in the pocket of China they won't raise a single finger against her. They just passed token sanctions against BD,Russis and China. They also did a "diplomatic boycott" of winter olympics in China which allowed US athletes to still take part in the game.

biden mama is the puppet. They are even trying to depose the mylapore mami

the deep state is the one coming after India.

they are the one with the resources and the strings to pull.

they cannot afford an out of reach and a not leverageable India that has a mind of her own.

They have gotten used to the mafia gangs and the slippery sardar, a civil society that they can periodically slip a few bucks to, and a paltan of babooze who can run the compromised the system for them

Above all, they need a pliable India to appease the cheenis and feed that dragon when sacrifices are demanded

Putin's S-400 limits the scope of India's entrapment by the amerikis and so they do not want russki hi tech under Indian ownership and control

how do these woke amerikis assume we’re answerable to them for anything.

^^^Exactly. The current US regime is a front for the vested deep state. It does not matter which party is in charge.

They will absolutely ensure Trump and such people NEVER come back to power. Trump will be in jail by the end of next year, or he will be told to stay out of politics forever or face jail time.

India is firmly in the deep state cross hairs. Modi and nationalist government has the potential to disrupt the global order. The US will head up North America, the EU with a compliant Russia, Sunni dominated ME, and Asia under the control of China.

It is not just India but the incumbent administration has made few other head scratching decisions. One of the first decisions taken by this administration was to delay the weapons purchase by UAE already approved by the previous administration, it has irked UAE enough that this week they suspended all talks related to the massive 23 billion dollar purchase program to buy everything from F35s to drones. Similarly, US suspended arms sales to Saudi just when the houthis attacks are intensifying. And this week US is rumored to have either denied or delayed Israel refueling tankers. It is only a matter of time that US pushes many of its former allies into the arms of the Chinese.

Realistically, over the past 4 years US has grown weaker by the day. It has so many fissures exposed by Trump presidency that any non-state can exploit it like we saw in Seattle. Its very easy to manipulate the crowds to shut down major economic centers like NY and SF if you want to. Why do you think some Dems are so afraid of the Russian trolls? They know that they can be paid in kind by some powers.

WRT the above, I really don’t know why Indians have this need to approach the American for fair arbitration. The America’s job is to further American interests not defend India.

They use the tools available. Nothing shocking or unfair about it except for Indian naïveté.

US antagonizing its allies in the middleeast has implications for India too. India has historically maintained warm relationship with Gulf shiekhdoms and Israel , if the US continues to dillydally on its security and diplomatic relations with the middle east then its only a matter of time before China moves into that space. I am unable to understand some of these decisions, who benefits from a US which disengages and decouples from the block it has carefully crafted and maintained for more than 80 yrs ? How did China with some terrible PR and even worse reputation around the world buy such influence within the US ? Nothing makes sense anymore.

The US of Clinton, Bush, Obama and even Trump is a thing of the past.

It's only chance was for Donald Trump to have been re-elected and allowed to function freely. But that was not to be.

The current US doesn't have the reserves it needs to regenerate it self.

The various SJW and progressive loonies are hell bent on destroying what's left of the entrepreneur spirit of the middle class.

With control over language and agressive dominance with micro aggression. They are making sure that US will not be able to attain a position of leadership in any major field. They have already declared a war on hard sciences, Industriousness, punctuality.

Coupled with a return to segregation and racist policies in the name of inclusiveness and diversity is just icing on the cake

The deep state if it genuinely believes that it will be able to have it's way in international relations. Is seriously deluded about what the world is all about.

But given it has someone like Blinken where he is I am not really surprised.

All this is a long winded way of saying that the ability of the US to cause any degree of real harm is no longer real. It will loose what ever strengths it might have possessed over the next 10 to 20 years. Just like USSR had by 91.

Amber, the way US is acting makes sense, if you look at it from the POV of actions being taken by PRC agents of influence.

I have been trying to understand the US Chinese tangle.

Going back in time, I have with limited resources been able to understand that since the cutting of the Chinese melon. The US had wanted to have strong access to mainland China.

The Sino - Japanese war provided an opportunity for such relationship. If post WW2 the nationalists won the civil war.

But CCP won the civil war. Cutting access to mainland China for nearly 30 years.

Once the PRC decided to re- open itself to the world. US saw that as an opportunity to have the relationship it had always wanted. It did everything for that relationship.

But the PRC being long term planners that they were. Instead created agents of influence in different segments of US over the last 40 + years.

Add to this the Marxist take over of the academia over the last 50 years.

What you are seeing is a net result of that.

It's become all encompassing because of the stupidity and venality of the democratic party and its elites. As that is acting as a force multiplier for PRC.

As usual NYT is blaming “right wing” and hindutvawadis for the elaborate scheme. Apparently “Bharat” is referred to only by the right wing. Wonder who are the ones that call it “Hindustan” then, a term used often by the inbreds across the border.

NYT is on the same level and standards as Dawn and Nation. Just as we treat those links as haraam , so should we treat NYT.

Last weeks news

Russia vetoes UN resolution to recognize "climate change" as a threat to global security.


Some time back, the US and the other wokes, highly dissatisfied with what happened in glasgow during the climate change meeting, quietly decided to pass a resolution in the UNSC making "climate change" a threat to global security".

This position of India's on the climate change commitments would have caused major heartburn among the US, prime mover and the leader of the pack, and its allies.


India strongly opposed this resolution and Russia vetoed UN the resolution to recognize "climate change" a threat to global security".

the sly buggers planned to entirely bypass the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and keep members like India from having a say and move the Climate Change discussions solely to the ambit of the five UNSC members thus allowing them the unrestricted powers of controlling and making binding resolutions under the climate change requirements that focussed solely on treating climate change as "a threat to peace". Of course, in due course, the recalcitrants and the objectors would face the full majesty of the UN sanctions.

The whiteys did not like India asking for a trillion dollars as compensation to make the changes. India has demanded a trillion dollars over the next decade from developed countries to adapt to, and mitigate, the challenges arising from global warming, and placed this as a mandatory condition for delivering on climate commitments made by Prime Minister Modi.

This commitment required that the "committed signatories' governments reduce atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases with the goal of "preventing dangerous anthropogenic interference with Earth's climate system". This commitment would require substantial reductions in greenhouse gas emissions made at the cost of India's industrialization and social progress.

Russia has vetoed the passage of a United Nations Security Council resolution that for the first time would have treated climate change as a threat to peace, even as many Western powers increasingly take climate risk into account as part of their security strategies.

The resolution, co-sponsored by Ireland and Niger, would have required the top U.N. body to consider climate change as a possible cause of conflicts, and to look for ways to address the risks and head off potential clashes.

Twelve of the Security Council’s 15 members voted in favor of the resolution Monday. India voted against it, alongside Russia, while China abstained. Russia is one of the council’s five veto-wielding permanent members with the power to block resolutions.

My question is whether the indian govt. Would have the gonads to get out of the UN if Russia had not vetoed this resolution --this resolution had china "abstaining", but US, UK, and france were all for making climate change a " global security threat". Given this, it is very clear that the UN is hostile to India's interests, and while Dr. Jaishankar speaks about the UN being adrift etc., India only had a useless vote at this time, and has zero chance of getting into the UNSC with Veto power -- we are in the UNSC currently "on rotation" with no veto power. Okay, the speech made by the MEA was great and all, but if we had not dodged this bullet, the speech would not have helped. I do not see a plan B at play in the MEA's futile attempts to change the UN to be a less hostile organization, rather than just reduce UN commitments and work on replacing it with a more useful organization where it has more leverage over events.

Frankly, I'm not so concerned about Garcetti. He's making the right noises in front of the right crowd. So far Biden's moves have only disappointed and sidelined the far left/"porgessive" crew. And all they've done about it, is to swallow it. Case in point was the recent infra bill IIRC.

Its not too different from politicians world over - you make certain sounds in front of home crowd and others in front of abroad crowd. Ultimately you do only that which works out practically.

This particular appointment can not be easily dismissed as politics as usual. There is a real danger with UP election interference by the US.

The problem with Garcetti are not so much his public statements, as it reflects the world view mindset of the US administration, but he will be the point person for the US deep state's interaction with terrorists/anarchists/anti-nationals who will receive US financial assistance and training to subvert the Indian state. Pay close attention to the money trail as it will reveal what is happening. The FY22 NDAA of $768 billion is awaiting signature and in the recent "infrastructure" bill somewhere near $1 billion is allocated for cyber security countermeasures (there are several billion more allocated, but exact breakdown has not been publicly stated).

Garcetti needs to hauled up in front a parliamentary enquiry on the statements he has made thus far, then kicked out of the country.

give him a coldish shoulder during his tenure.

all US ambassadors to India seem/seemed to think that it is/was their primary duty, the white man's burden if you will, to civilize the natives and save the heathens.

That's what they did to the northeast until they realized that if they pushed any further, the danger of the whole edifice falling to the eagerly waiting cheenis would leave India with no option but to go to war.

so now, they are nibbling away at the whole of India, while piously espousing friendship and woke civil society gyan.

BLM has come back, with a vengeance, to bite them in their bony white cracker asses and let's hope that they stay bitten for a really long time to come

Poll after poll is showign Hispanics are abandoning Democrats. They voted against them in many places including Florida.

https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opin ... ts-of-them

But it's not just Biden. Latino voters appear to be increasingly turned off by the Democratic Party itself, and particularly by its progressive leaders.
Hispanic voters did not want to defund the police. They did not want to slash police budgets or reduce the number of officers. They didn't want to reduce the role of law enforcement in keeping the peace. And they didn't like the idea of reparations. They were, in other words, entirely out of touch with the Summer of BLM.

Finally, many Hispanic voters are repelled by the anti-Americanism of some progressives. Hispanics in a recent survey "said they would rather be a citizen of the United States than any other country in the world and by 35 points said they were proud of the way American democracy works," Teixeira notes. Such opinions, he adds, "contrasted starkly with the negative views of progressive activists."
India, Indian Govt. and Hindus need to build bridges with them. Wokes/Dumbos have used India as a way to show Jihadis how progressive they are. Here is a group that respects democracy, America and Hard work. We need to build rapport with this group.
