Rahul's $0.2 million encounter with FBI

LUCKNOW: A suit has been filed in the high court here seeking information about the alleged detention of Congress MP Rahul Gandhi and his Colombian girlfriend by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in 2001.

The petition, filed by four lawyers, is likely to be heard Wednesday.

According to the public interest litigation, Gandhi, the son of Congress president Sonia Gandhi, and his companion were released after being detained at Boston airport following the intervention of the Prime Minister's Office.

At that time, Atal Bihari Vajpayee was the Indian prime minister and Gandhi was not a member of the Lok Sabha.

"Vajpayee's principal secretary and then national security adviser Brajesh Misra spoke to top US authorities to enable Rahul Gandhi and his girlfriend to get away," claimed Prem Chandra Sharma, who moved the court along with three others.

Sharma claimed to have gathered this information through the Internet and said he had downloaded certain documents to substantiate his allegations.

The petition alleged that Gandhi was found in illegal possession of about $200,000. And it was in that connection that the FBI had detained him along with his girlfriend Sep 21, 2001.

The FBI was said to have sought an explanation about Gandhi's possession of such a huge amount of money, which he was unable to provide, the petition said.

The petition sought a writ of mandamus to the Indian ambassador to the US as well as the union home secretary to make a disclosure about the entire episode.

Openning the blinkers

Ah, P. Jha's relativism rears it's ugly head in Obscured_by_myth! I honestly understand why Jha would be so frustrated and why ToI would run this fairytale. IMO, it is disgraceful ToI(let) is able to print such ill researched leftist propaganda without asking for evidence first.

Using material from LEFTIST and BIASED source such as Pankaj Jha clearly displays shoddy journalism on ToI(let) paper's part. Do you even proofread before printing?

" Worse, chronicles written during the Sultanate period often castigated polytheists and idol-worshippers. This, however, is a gross distortion of truth."
Who the eff needs chronicles when quran exists to this day and age.

Quran says

Kill the idolaters wherever you find them. 009.005
Stay away from idolaters. 006.106

"looking down upon believers of rival religious systems was not unique to Islam".
On this, he presents an example of a Sanskrit play Prabodhachandrodaya while I can quote from the Quran and Hadiths "looking down upon believers of rival religious systems". So, Mr. Jha is equating a play with Quran, wow.

From the Quran:

Kill disbelievers wherever you find them. If they attack you, then kill them. Such is the reward of disbelievers. (But if they desist in their unbelief, then don't kill them.) 002.191

For they emanate from the communalist article of faith that India is a natural habitat for Hindus.
Jha ji can you prove otherwise. Bear in mind, the Kolkatta 24 Karat Kommie backed AIT/AMT's propagator-in-chief Weasel Witzel has shifted grounds on this one.

Communist wordplay: Hindusim/Brahmanism
Communist historians and sociologists have been fortifying it by rewriting and reinterpreting Indian history as a perennial struggle between Brahmin oppressors and the rest. Anti-Brahminism is now part of the official doctrine of the secular, socialist Republic of India. Early Christian missionaries tried it and failed, muslims tried and failed, communists and bible humpers are trying their level best and they, too, will fail.

Frawley sums up these communist wankers, "Marxists in India have replaced the class warfare model of European communism with their own idea of caste warfare based on turning the Brahmins into the main enemies of the people."


I thank ToI(let) paper for Jha's broadcast, because they've made themselves look like fools trying to create a moral equivalence hogwash by no less an expert.

Lastly, in order for ToI(let) paper to regain any credibility you need to give space for people to properly respond to Jha's 'creativity'.

ps: Is Jha from the cesspool of Doctor-Engr-Reject's abode aka JNU?
