Question is not whether is was bad attempt or executed well. Question is: Are Sikh persecuted as evidenced by Op BS ? My answer is no. If you say that you are persecuted because force is used in a shrine to flush out evil, then it has been done in the past, and I gave the example.
not really , they took refuge in the sanctum sanctorum which unfortunaly was under fire. Okay even so.. maybe that operation was done like a charm (because the terrorsits did not have years to stock up food and ammo), and even if Blue Star was not well executed, that still does not mean that...
Question is not baseless.. please see title of thread. and follow other posts by pakistanis and chinese regarding severing india.
So its only vendetta and not out of love for the people who live in different regions in india? I know for a fact that india's policy towards pakistan is not...
they were extremely well armed and stocked with rations and had hostages inside the golden temple. armymen went in without shoes. Bhindranwale fired at Indian forces from within the sanctum sanctorum. They were the first ones to fire inspite of orders to surrender. I dont know how else the...
I have utmost respect for kaaba/vatican/harmandar sahib. It is not flame. Someone pointed out a link to operation Bluestar as to why sikhs are persecuted in india. I just wanted to show that Op BLuStar was not meant to denigrate Sikhs
My point is: people are pointing that Sikhs are religiously persecuted in india and show example of operation blue star. I just want to show that it is not uncommon for terrorsit to hide in holy shrines and take refuge, and when that is the case , force has to be used.
NOTHING I said has ANY...

This has been done before. But that was not my point as to how big the place is. My point is , if there are criminals hiding there, force would for be used. please see the link for your answer.
I am not venturing into unknown territories, I want the answer from your own mouth. If those guys were executed, I am sure you will more than agree that operation Blue star was necessary to flush out terrorism.
What I agree is not acceptable was indira's assassination AND the massacre of Sikhs...
Also, a lot of people here want to split india into many pieces. May I ask what is the advantage to Pakistan if that happens?
If that happens there will be some of those small countries which will be more propsperous that it is now because they are more progressive minded (Like the southern...
what will the saudi govt do, if osama is sitting inside the Kaaba and has stored weapons and men there, and is conducting terrorist operatinos from there?
I DO NOT mean to insult anyone, this is just an analogy. Just for a moment let us assume the saudi king is non-muslim. this is exactly the...
whats the use of having a homeland. Imagine for a minute, that kashmir is a separate country and so is khalistan, and any other state of india you would like to split. what will happen, these will be rules by some tyrannical despot or will become an islamic wasteland. Now the very people who say...
whats the use of being a muslim nation. Look at saudi.. the king is a vassal of america. first he bows to white house and then at kaaba, otherwise its the end of the house of saud. look at any other muslim nation. Filled with angry people, people very frustrated because of their inability to...
I agree, present day Punjab province in Pakistan was once Sikh majority. So a regoin carved out of Pakistani Punjab with Lahore as capital should have been given to Sikhs. After all Lahore was Maharaj Ranjit Singh's capital. For Sikhs remaining in India they could be given a state within union...
