Further trumped-up charges against Kanchi Acharya

By now, everybody realizes how pathetic and ridiculous the whole affair of Kanchi Acharya-bashing has become. TN govt is clutching at straws.
Kanchi seer charged with stealing lingam

After all these months, it has not been able to produce one shred of evidence against the Acharya. After setting off the last Christmas-tsunami through its wanton humiliation of the Acharya, is the TN govt now asking for a repeat dose?? Beware the wrath of the virtuous...remember the Tamil saying "Saadhu mirandaal..."

Americans are disgusting Christian fanatics

http://www.newsinsight.net/columns/full_column10.htmThis is a very insightful and incisive article. Americans being made 'anthropological specimens' was long overdue, this is something they do to other cultures all the time.


One thing that struck me is the author's point that early Xians were actually carrying out proselytization by force, and hence had to work as an underground group. Seeing their violent nature today, and the reckless behaviour of S.Korean evangelists who go into hostile countries like Saudi Arabia and Iraq, this is no surprise at all.

Blatant kick to Hindus

As usual, sick-ular IndExpress is hiding facts. This Pioneer article is more explicit on how Hindus are getting shafted *despite* the objections of the Law Ministry.

The Law Ministry, however, had objected to the new Constitutional provision, applicable to private unaided colleges but sparing the minority institutions, arguing that it would violate the Constitutional provision of the Fundamental Right to Equality, ensured by Article 14. This would also violate the basic Constitutional provisions and procedure to amend the Constitution, the Law Ministry's letter has pointed out.

ICC is being run by goras - Wasim Akram

Wasim Akram got it spot on when he accused ICC of being run by goras. In light of how regularly the Indian players get pulled up for their appealing, take a look at the following:
"Every side has got their own style of play ... Australia, South Africa and New Zealand, to a certain extent, are aggressive in their body language and aggressive in their appealing and that's the way they play." ICC match referee Mike Procter on suggestions that Australia's appealing against West Indies was over the top

Why protect Maureen Vadra

http://www.dailypioneer.com/indexn12.asp?main_variable=CITY&file_name=city2%2Etxt&counter_img=2
Having perused the "protected persons" list presented separately by the Union Home Ministry and the Delhi Police in sealed covers, the court with the assistance of the Under Secretary SP Singh of Home Ministry short-listed about 70 names which required detailed examination. The Ministry indicated to the court that security was being provided to these persons either on basis of the positions held or after assessing grave threat against them. Amused by this contention, the court called for the production of the files pertaining to the shortlisted names by February 8, the next date of hearing.
The court even perused the list of 27 "protectees" under the Delhi Police, recommended by an officer of the rank of Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Special Branch. In this list the court inquired about Maureen Vadra, demanding an explanation with respect to the material considered by the concerned DCP before approving her security.
