Muslim leadership abetting anti-Muslim riots by not identifying Brahminical enemy

We have an important question to India’s Muslim leadership though this is not the first time we are putting this question. We have done it many times. But their refusal to answer makes us doubt their bonafides.

The Brahmana Jati Party (BJP) political resolution at its Dec.23, 2006 Lucknow national council meeting was an all-out, no-holds-barred attack on Muslims.

Kalyan Singh, the stupid Backward Caste ex-chief minister of UP being projected as the next CM of the state, moving the resolution clearly identified the Muslims as the enemies of Hindus. He asked “Hindus to create a Hindu volcano that would burn and kill Muslim appeasement for ever”. He identified all “terrorists” as Muslims. The resolution criticised all measures to help Muslims develop educationally, socially and economically — meaning the recommendations of the Sachar Committee. “Muslim appeasement is ruining the nation”, he said.

ENEMY NO.1 OF HINDUS

We can quote many more passages from the BJP official resolution which singled out Muslims for all the country’s problems.

What is crystal clear from this resolution is that the country’s premier Hindu terrorist party has identified the Muslims as the enemy No.1 of the “Hindus”.

There is not a bit of confusion in the thinking of these Brahminical forces. They know their enemy and they are fighting, jailing, burning and killing their enemy by employing their police, military and even their own innumerable Hindu terrorist forces.

The upper caste-owned “national” toilet papers are painting all Muslims as terrorists and brainwashing its readers to hate Muslims and instigating the police to be merciless and their Hindu judiciary to jail them or sentence them to death. It is a clear division into Hindu and Muslim. There is no other shade in between these colours.

The Hindu police, prosecutor, judge and the jailor are all sincerely following the dictates of the BJP resolution.

NO CONFUSION IN HINDU MIND

The verdict of the special court set up to try the Bombay serial blasts (1993) now coming one by one in instalment is faithfully following the BJP resolution.

There is no confusion whatsoever in the “Hindu mind” that the Muslim is the enemy of the “Hindu”. The “Hindu” has only one enemy and that is the Muslim. He was the enemy before the partition of India and he continues to be the enemy even to this day because India has the world’s largest number of Muslims after Indonesia.

CONFUSION IN MUSLIM MIND

It is the Muslim leadership (not the masses of Muslims) who are in utter confusion. And it is this confusion that has created all the problem in the country and helped the Brahminical rulers to concentrate all their fire power against one single community of Muslims.

By this the Hindu terrorist leaders have successfully divided the population of India into “Hindu” and “Muslim”. And when they target the Muslim there is no confusion because Muslims are those who profess a religion called Islam. All those who follow Islam are Muslims. And these Muslims are the “enemies” of Hindus. This is the verdict of “Hindu India”.

INDIA IS NOT HINDU

It is the Muslim leadership which is confused. This confusion is helping the Hindu terrorists to divide the country into Hindu and Muslim because of its own foolishness despite 26 years of educating the Muslims through our writings and speeches. When the Muslim leadership divides the Indian population into Hindu and Muslim it is simply playing into the hands of the enemy.

DALITS AS VICTIMS OF HINDUS

It calls India as Hindustan but not as India, which is the official name of the country as stated in the country’s constitution, and thereby admits that India is a country of Hindus and thus simply plays into the enemy hands.

Hundreds of times we have said India is not Hindu and Hindustan. Neither the constitution of India has said this nor its maker, Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar.

Much more than that the Untouchables (15%), Adivasis (10%) and Backward Castes (35%), a total of 65% — the three original inhabitants of India from whom Islam drew its bulk of converts — are not Hindu and were never Hindu.

Not only that. All these three sections have been fighting only against the Brahminical Hindus ever since they invaded this country about 4,000 years ago because they have been the victims of their brutal socio-cultural-economic oppression.

Not only that. A large section SC/ST/BCs, unable to bear this Brahminical persecution, embraced Islam and got liberated.

In other words, not only over 65% of the country’s population is not Hindu but victims of Hindus. And hence anti-Hindu. In fact, over 85% of India’s Muslims went over to Islam only from these three communities to escape the Hindu tyranny. Muslims of India did not come from Arabia, Iran or Turkey. They are all original inhabitants of India. These are facts of history.

WHO THEN ARE HINDUS?

We have also cleared the doubts as to who are the Hindu. For the information of Muslims and all other victims of Hinduism there is nothing like Hinduism at all. Hinduism is nothing but a recent name given to Brahminism to hide the real culprit and then deceive its victims. Not only the Muslims are victims of Hinduism but much more that the SC/ST/BCs are daily fighting against Hinduism only.

Who then are the Hindu? They are a micro-minority of less than 15% comprising the Brahmins who are just 3%. The others are Kshatriyas (Thakurs) and Banias who together may not be even total 2% of India’s population. The bulk of the “Hindu” population comprises the shudra castes like the Jats, Marathas (Maharashtra), Kayasths, Lingayats and Vokkaliga (Karnataka), Reddy and Khamma (AP), Vellala, Chettiar, Gounder (TN), Nair (Kerala), Patel (Gujarat).

Go to any village in India and ask a villager’s identity. He would take the name of his jati but would never say he was “Hindu”. Even a Brahmin would say his caste name but would not call himself a Hindu. But the same Brahmin when he speaks from a platform he would call himself Hindu. This is the name of the game called “Hindu”.

SHIVA DHARMA REVOLT

These shudras, who are part of Hinduism, also very much hate the Brahmins. The Shiva Dharma revolt against Brahmins of Maharashtra is a movement of the shudra Marathas. (Purushottam Khedekar, Marathas Declare War on Brahminism, DSA-2005, Rs. 5).

These landed shudras form about 10% of the country’s population and are the fighting arm of the Brahmins.

More and more shudra castes in their hatred against the SC/ST/BCs are going over to the BJP. They are joining the BJP not because they hate the Muslims. The Brahmins exploit the shudra hatred of SC/ST/BCs against Muslims by calling them Hindu.

CASTE-LIKE FEATURES AMONG MUSLIMS

So when the Muslim also divide the society into Hindu and Muslim it helps the Brahmins. Because such a division of society makes their job easy to annex the SC/ST/BCs into Hindu fold and let lose the shudra hounds against the Muslims.

In other words, it is the Muslim leadership that is promoting the Hindu-Muslim divide and thus playing into the enemy hands.

The Muslim leadership — both religious and political — is not ignorant of these facts. It knows the facts of history. Dr. Ambedkar and Bhim Sena leader Shyam Sunder had stated these facts any number of times.

Why then India’s Muslim leaders are hiding these historical facts and thereby aiding and abetting the Brahminical terrorist party (RSS-BJP etc.) to divide the country into Hindu and Muslim?

We can’t say the Muslim leadership is suffering from ignorance of history and the country’s social set-up. That the Muslim society itself has caste-like features was pointed out by many Muslim leaders themselves. The Sachar Committee of the Govt. of India has confirmed these facts strengthening the demand of “Backward Muslims” for reservations.

MUSLIM LEADERSHIP HARMING MUSLIMS

The RSS-BJP division of India into Hindu and Muslim and the Muslim leadership’s endorsement of this division is the principal cause of India’s misery and continued blood-letting on the part of Muslim masses.

We can understand the Hindu terrorists bid to confuse the people and get the best return out of such a confusion. But the Muslim leadership’s bid to deliberately hide the social divisions (castes) but talk only of the religious division is not only harming the country and its vast SC/ST/BCs but more than that the Muslim masses itself.

SC/ST/BCs NOT HINDU BUT MADE HINDU

In other words the Muslim leadership’s refusal to give up its Hindu-Muslim jargon is seriously harming their own Muslim masses.

If the SC/ST/BCs are not Hindu, what are they? Because of the centuries of Brahminical brain-washing through history books, their puranic cock and bull stories and their monopoly media propaganda, the non-Hindu SC/ST/BCs are made to think themselves as Hindu. They are not Hindu but made Hindu and called Hindu.

On one side the Muslim leadership does not identify who the “Hindus” are and on the other side the non-Hindu, if not anti-Hindu SC/ST/BCs think they are Hindu. If these are well-known facts, will not the Muslim leadership be then accused of aiding and abetting the violence and consequent deaths that follow “Hindu-Muslim conflicts” between SC/ST/BCs and Muslims?

The Muslim leadership could have easily avoided the violent clashes between the innocent SC/ST/BCs and Muslims if only it had educated the Muslim masses of the fact that the former are not only not Hindu and were never Hindu but enemies of Hindu.

GUJARAT GENOCIDE

As a highly enlightened community and also our elder brothers following a revolutionary religion, Dalits expected the Muslims to contribute to our liberation. But, alas, they did not.

We recently visited Ahmedabad where we had our 3-day Dalit Voice workshop in the very heart of the old city. The gory 2002 Gujarat Genocide was a bloody clash between the Dalits and Muslims who lived peacefully as brothers for decades.

We met scores of Muslims and Dalits and both are now regretting that the two blood brothers killed each other in a well planned Hindu nazi conspiracy. The Brahminical brain washing was so systematic and powerful that the Dalits were made to think they were Hindu and the Muslim as their enemy. As against this, the Muslim religious propaganda was equally systematic and powerful that the innocent Muslim masses were made to believe that Dalits were Hindu.

The RSS-BJP terrorists, when they say that Dalits and Tribals are Hindu, are doing a service to their religion. They are not brainwashing the Dalits in the interest or welfare of Dalits. They hate Dalits. Their very religion says so. But they are brain-washing them on Hinduism to instigate them against Muslims and kill them.

CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY

Their line of action is so clear and straight. It is the Muslim leadership which has committed the greatest crime not only against their own Muslim society but against the innocent SC/ST/BCs and more so against the country. Why the country? Because, had the Muslim leadership been wise, practical and clear in its thinking it could have avoided all the anti-Muslim riots that had rocked this country and killed millions of innocent Muslims, Dalits and BCs. Are we then wrong in accusing the Muslim leadership of a crime not only against its own people but a crime against humanity itself?

We need the answer.

REFUSING TO IDENTIFY THE ENEMY

Will we be wrong if we suspect that the Muslim leadership is consciously or unconsciously supporting the Hindu terrorists in forcibly keeping this country as Hindustan, against the wishes of both Dalits and Muslims and against the facts of history and thereby causing all the war and violence against their own innocent Muslims?

We need the answer.

We had discussions on this many times with the Muslim religious and political leadership. The Muslim religious leadership commands greater respectability among the Muslims. We had met the late Moulana Hasan Al Nadvi (Ali-Miyan), India’s most famous Muslim saint, many times. He knew the facts and admitted the Brahminical conspiracy behind hinduising (enslaving) the non-Hindu SC/ST/BCs against Muslim. We had also met the leadership of the Jamate-Islami, Jamiatul Ulema, Tablighe Jamat, Muslim League and many, many organisations.

Leaders of all these organisations admit they are fully aware of the Brahminical conspiracy behind anti-Muslim riots. But they are not prepared to name and identify the enemy? Why?

Their refusal to identify the enemy-oppressor of India —not only the enemy of Dalits but also their blood brothers, Muslims —has actually helped the RSS-BJP-Shiv Sena hydra-headed serpent to grow.

APPALING IGNORANCE OF MUSLIMS

The enemy of both Muslims and SC/ST/BCs is the same Brahminical forces. The Muslim leadership knows it but refusing to name it, identify it.

So will we go wrong if we directly hold the tiny Muslim religious leadership responsible for the growth of Hindu terrorism and the consequent war and violence on Muslim masses?

It is true the masses of Muslims are not aware of the country’s social divisions, the caste system and the hierarchical gradation it created. For them everybody who is not a Muslim, Christian or Sikh is a Hindu. Such is the appalling ignorance of the Muslims though they live in all urban slums side by side with the equally oppressed SC/ST/BCs whom they mistakenly think to be Hindu.

DALITS HATE HINDUS

In the latest Khairlanji anti-Dalit massacre in Maharashtra’s Bhandara dt., the culprits are not Muslims. So too in all other earlier anti-Dalit massacres including the country’s biggest Kilvenmani (Tamil Nadu). Every where it is the upper castes (Hindu) or OBCs who attacked and killed the Dalits.

Nowhere in India we have any instance of Dalit-Muslim enmity, let alone clashes and killings. We have made this point clear in our book, Dalit-Muslim Unity (DSA-1995).

SECRET PACT IN COW BELT

Then how did Gujarat erupt? This is because of the Hindu terrorist bid to hinduise the non-Hindu Dalits and tribals and then let loose the hounds against Muslims. And thousands and thousands of Muslims were simply slaughtered in the country’s single largest bloodbath because of the Muslim leadership’s unpardonable, historical blunder of not educating the Muslim masses on India’s social divisions.

QURAN DIRECTS TO IDENTIFY ENEMY

The Muslim leadership’s deliberate and studied silence has caused painful convulsions and many more are in the making.

Despite our repeated warnings when the Muslim leadership refuses to heed us, will we go wrong if we suspect a secret pact between the two in the cow belt?

The Quran has specific directives (S:4:94) to identify the enemy-oppressor and fight, finish and eradicate it lock, stock and barrel.

The enemy of both Muslims and SC/ST/BCs — rather the country as a whole itself — is the Brahminical terrorists.

Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar has identified them. So also Jinnah and Poet Iqbal. (DV Edit March 1, 1993: “Muslims must right away identify their friends & enemies”).

DALIT VOICE SERVICE TO MUSLIMS

But the Muslim religious, political and other leaders, who succumbed and surrendered by their solemn silence on this most vital aspect of life and death of this country, have conspired to widen the “Hindu-Muslim divide” and contributed to the consequent horrendous blood bath. Are we then wrong in clubbing this Muslim leadership along with the Brahminical terrorists and accusing them of being a party to the pain and suffering of the millions and millions of Dalits and Muslims?

We need the answer.

The name of our paper may be Dalit Voice but it is the organ of the entire Bahujan Samaj which also includes Muslims (20%), Christians, Sikhs etc. We have made this clear in our Editorial of Jan.1, 2005: “Confessions of a Dalit Editor” which was later brought as a reprint (Dalit Voice — A New Experiment in Journalism, DSA-2005, Rs. 25).

THREAT TO MUSLIM LEADERSHIP

Though the Muslims form only about 20% of our DV family membership, we have given them the prime position in our writings and speeches provoking the charge that it is not Dalit Voice but “Muslim Voice”. Yes, many honest, thinking Muslims have said DV is a better Muslim paper. But the Muslim leadership has failed to use the Dalit Voice and utilise its potentialities.

Rather, DV is considered a threat to the Muslim leadership.

But we are sure this micro-minority Muslim leadership belonging to the elite Muslim class will soon get wiped out facing the Curse of Allah as predicted in our book of the same title (DSA-1997, Rs. 45 — only photocopy).

Even now it is not late for this Muslim leadership to admit its mistake and correct itself before its leadership is wiped out. It must start educating the Muslim masses at its religious meetings, Friday prayers on India’s caste divisions and identify the enemy-oppressor of the Muslims. It must point out that Dalits — SC/ST/BCs — are not the enemy of Muslims. The enemies are the tiny Brahminical people. The Hindus are divided into castes but the SC/ST/BCs are not castes hence not Hindu.

DALIT-MUSLIM UNITY FAILED

Please note Dalits are the blood enemies of the Hindus. In fact they hate the Hindus much more than the Muslims hate the Hindu. The real enemy is Brahminism. This has to be identified and the principal caste behind Brahminism.

Once the Muslim masses come to know this secret, miracles will follow.

Then only the speeches of Muslim leaders will immediately attract attention and reported in the Muslim media and also in the Brahminical media. It will then educate not only the Muslim masses but also the Dalit and BC masses and enlighten the two blood brothers and promote better brotherhood.

The Muslim leadership failed to promote the Dalit-Muslim unity which we have been advocating since 30 years. The leadership merely praised our efforts but took no concrete step towards it. We have no hope of Muslim leadership promoting such a brotherhood. It is more interested in friendship with the Brahminical people who hate them. Their love for the enemy is time-tested and known to all DV family members.

U.P. AS CENTRE OF ALL PROBLEMS

Their fear is if they get closer to Dalits they will be subjected to more serious attacks by the enemy. But the fact is the exact opposite. The secret of Muslim leaders’ admiration for the Brahminical people is this leadership’s elite background.

Uttar Pradesh has captured the Muslim mind through various Islamic organisations like AIMPLB, Majlise-Mashawarat, Tablighi Jamat, Jamate-Islami, Jamiatul Ulema, Deoband, Bariely and Nadwa schools. All this is done through Urdu language in which they are expert orators. Their representatives are to be found among Urdu-speaking Muslims who form a majority among Muslims. The only silver lining is the lack of influence of these Urdu orators in states like Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Bengal, Assam and Kashmir where they cannot penetrate as the Muslims here do not know Urdu. The Muslim mind in these states is clear and clean. They are not confused like the Urdu-speaking Muslims.

Hence it is the UP Muslim religious leadership that is the prime accused. The Babri Masjid-Ramjanam Bhoomi game was played right here by the Hindu nazis.

TIPS TO PAKISTANI LEADERSHIP

Since the Muslims belong to a universal religion, we want our criticism of India’s Muslim leadership should be taken note of in neighbouring Pakistan and Bangladesh. The Muslim religious and political leadership of these countries can help remove the fears of their Indian counterparts if they take the initiative in naming and identifying the enemy oppressor inside India.

The enemy of Muslims inside India as well as Pakistan is the same.

Such a support from Pakistani leadership headed by President Musharaff will go a long way because Islamic brotherhood (ummah) is a universal concept. Besides the Pakistani leadership has a duty to help its Muslim brothers in India which has the world’s largest Muslim population (next only to Indonesia). Once a lead comes from Pakistan, once part of undivided India, the cowardly Muslim leadership in India may get some courage to follow and shed its fears.

PARTITION OF INDIA

This Brahminical mischief artificially dividing people into Hindus and Muslims is over a century old. It is this mischief that caused the partition of India into India for Hindu and Pakistan for Muslim. Not only that. The Brahminical people exploited the partition to whip up such a hatred of Muslims resulting in slaughter of thousands on both sides. But did any Brahmin, the brain behind the partition conspiracy, die?

CHOICE OF WORDS

Since the partition of 1947, master-minded by the cunning Gujarati Bania, M.K. Gandhi, the Brahminical controllers of India managed to wage three wars against Pakistan using the pretext of Muslim-majority Kashmir which itself saw thousands and thousands of Kashmir Muslims killed. On one side the Brahminical rulers are killing and persecuting the Muslims and on another side killing and persecuting the countless number of non-Hindu original inhabitants of India. The whole of India has turned into a battle ground between the Brahminical micro-minority (15%) Hindus led by a mere 3% Brahmins and its massive majority of Bahujans. The Brahminical Hindus are the real architects of this bloody war and violence in India. Not the non-Hindu SC/ST/BCs. Calling them Hindu will cause further confusion and more bloodshed.

If the Muslim leadership uses any word other than Brahminism to identify the enemies of Muslims and the Dalits it will only confuse both the sections.

We have to be very careful in the choice of words and phrases because in India the entire language, its words, phrases, ideas and images are manipulated by its Brahminical rulers to hide their identity. The name “Hindu” is not only not correct but dangerous.

Brahminism is the enemy-oppressor of both Muslims and Dalits. Let us identify the enemy and wage a joint battle against this enemy to establish a lasting peace in India and also with our neighbour Pakistan.

DV articles in Urdu

Our two important pieces on Muslims — the Editorial and also the signed article that follows — published in this issue are the result of our in-depth study of the “Muslim problem”, long discussions with Muslim thinkers and also our close relationship with revolutionary Muslims. Realising the country-wide, if not international, interest it will generate we have decided to bring out a reprint of the same in book size. And also a Urdu translation of the same. We request our readers to freely translate it to other languages and send us copies — EDITOR.

A Brahmin admits change of heart ?

My association with DV has completed six years and now I am able to think properly. I was feeling that the Dalit problem is economic. But when I see a “poor” Brahmin priest receiving more respect than a Dalit landlord surely I feel otherwise. It is thus the identity, heritage and achievement and not necessarily the economic question.

We thank the honest Brahmin, Brother Prakash, for admitting that DV has helped him to get rid of his Brahminism. If only India produces a mere 0.5% of such enlightened Brahmins, much of our war and violence will be a thing of the past — EDITOR.

LETTER TO EDITOR

Robert de Kruyff, NORTEC- International, Jalan Flamboyan, 1 Kelurahan Lasiana, Kupang, Nusa Tenggara, Timur, Indonesia-85111 : I have not heard from you after I wrote a few notes on your book, Development Redefined (DV Dec.16, 2006 p.14). I hope my comments were not out of place. I have left Raipur (India) as the Project was not going anywhere. The Govt. did not show the necessary political will to make institutional changes to implement participatory irrigation management. In fact, any meaningful interaction with farmers was seen as superfluous and delaying construction. You as well as I know what is behind all that: construction means contracts, etc. I may return to see if the project can be cast in a different fashion to allow farmers’ inputs. The Asian Development Bank has not been very much forthcoming either despite the non-performance on contractual obligations of the govt. It seems that lending money is the main object rather than developing the agricultural sector by empowering the main stakeholders: the farm families. In any case, I enjoyed our short conversation at the Babylon Hotel at Raipur. It certainly did wet my appetite about many things Indian.

***

Upper caste rulers of Chhattisgarh (and India) are not interested in development which they have used to develop themselves. We have explained this when we last met. Please introduce our book to the ADB top people and advice them to have talks with us. The subject needs discussion. Can you ask the ADB to hold a seminar on this subject in Delhi? — EDITOR.

Rare book by V.T. Rajshekar

We have received from America some copies of the rare book, DALIT — The Black Untouchables of India, which for the first time introduced Apartheid, sanctified racism practised in “Hindu India”, to the Afro-Americans.

The book by V.T. Rajshekar, Editor of Dalit Voice, was published in America in 1987 and has gone into four editions. It is considered the first and the most authoritative book on the subject which shocked the American Blacks in the 80s.

Several American Black delegations came to India and found that India’s problem of racism against its Black Untouchables, forming a staggering third of its 1,100 million population, was much more serious than America’s Black problem.

As the book (110 pages) published by a premier Black publishing house, Clarity Press, Atlanta, has great demand, we request our family members to hurry up with their orders.

Priced at 9.95 US dollars it can be sold in India at a concessional rate of Rs. 150 including postage and packing. Please send DD or MO in the name of Dalit Voice.

A full page advt. of the book appears on p.27.

DALIT

THE BLACK UNTOUCHABLES OF INDIA

V.T. Rajshekar

“The outside world hardly knows that in India there is a 3,000 year old problem called Untouchability. And when you come to know the real facts, you will be in tears”.

After centuries of slavery, apartheid and ethnocide, the silence is broken. One hundred million Dalits in India, the twentieth century’s largest, most oppressed minority, cry out for the ear of the world.

Who are the Dalits? What does it mean to be treated as an “Untouchable?” Who were their Aryan conquerors, the creators of the caste system still in operation in India today? Is there a relation between Brahminism, the modern nazi doctrine of Aryan supremacy, and the colonial, US and South African doctrines of “white nationalism” and white superiority? Why do many consider Mahatma Gandhi, who labelled them “the harijan” (the children of god), their enemy?

Does the Black Untouchables’ message have special meaning for Black America?

Originally published in India under the title Apartheid in India, this book represents a guide to the thought of one of India’s foremost human rights activists, combining the essentials of marxism and the philosophy of the late Dr. B.R. Ambedkar into a new indigenous political philosophy to clarify the caste-class struggle in India.

V.T. RAJSHEKAR is author of over 100 books translated into many languages. He is Editor of the internationally distributed English language Indian bi-weekly, Dalit Voice, and Director of the Dalit Sahitya Akademy in Bangalore, India. Recognized worldwide as a spokesperson for the Indian Dalits, he worked for over 20 years for leading English-language dailies before being dismissed because of his efforts to obtain human rights of India’s vast persecuted Black Untouchable masses. This book brings his message to America.
