MUST WE NOT STAND BEHIND A PERSECUTED HINDU WOMAN?

MUST WE NOT STAND BEHIND A PERSECUTED HINDU WOMAN?

So long as Hindu devotees maintain their cowardly stance and do not come to united defence of persecuted Hindus anywhere in the world, no less in India, these persecutions by united Islamists will go on unimpeded.

The Bhagavad Geeta must be practised in effective terms valorously and its verses not merely quoted. Otherwise, Hindu influence will progressively wane in the world till it is eclipsed altogether. And with it Indian culture will be extinguished for good. What will remain of the world then? 

Mere passive piety will not do. Manhood is necessary to combat and defeat the enemy. So, awake, my Hindu brethren! Now no hour to sleep. Exhibit kshatriya valour if you are man enough. Else, hide your faces behind the zenana rank.

When truth cannot be digested by people and sentiments are so easily hurt, it is better that introspection about scripture that mandates to kill the infidel be done before resorting to vandalism and issuing death threats to supposed offenders.

Why is it that a scripturally codified fact so offends? What has been stated in the heat of a television discussion is universally recognised as historical truth by adherents of the said faith on the basis of writings of the concerned scriptural texts. So, where lies the blasphemous bit in such open articulation? Is it not the recorded truth which is accepted by Muslims the world over? So, why such a reaction?
