As it happens, independent of his role in the riots, I think that he is a bluffer and a charlatan. These are not major vices, others - Mamata Bannerjee most prominently - are guilty of this, but it has an influence on my thinking, as the only counter-vailing virtue to balance his bigotry suddenly looks very shadowy.
So long as you understand that these are two different kettles of fish.
Incidentally, I think I am entitled to be critical of those who wish to support him, not due to the riots and to his role but because of his (alleged_ record and his image, because it is preposterous to overlook such a huge defect and admire a man for the comparatively minor perfection. When you think of Nero the fiddler and Nero the tyrant, does your admiration of Nero's cultural ability and refinement overcome your revulsion at his vicious behaviour? Why do you think Modi deserves differential judgement?
I hope you can see that it is mostly about opinions and not really facts.
Let's wait and see.
May be you are right and he will be a disaster for India.
May be you are wrong and he will change India forever for the better (like Vajpayee did).
Let's wait and see.
