Mr Swamy, you are a revered personality because of your depth of knowledge and presumed wisdom.
Any woman, irrespective of her line of work, has the right to be at Ramlila or at any place of worship of her choice.
Your ridicule of Kangana Ranaut has only served to belittle yourself.
You have earned respect by the good work of an entire life time, please don’t ruin it by exposing your chauvinistic side

What sets us apart from the terrorists is we believe in the fundamental dignity of every human life.
Israeli.
Palestinian.
Arab.
Jew.
Muslim.
Christian.
If we give that up – the terrorists win.
And we can never let them win.
The entire world should know: It was barbaric terrorists in Gaza that attacked the hospital in Gaza, and not the IDF.
Those who brutally murdered our children also murder their own children.
Widespread support of Hamas by some people in India ~ Who have never demanded mass rehabilitation of 7 lakh Kashmiri Hindus - victims of genocide living in exile. But demanded that India rehabilitates Rohingya Muslims! Now stooped so low that they’re supporting a terrorist org 🙌🏻
@mashtalks__ They Palestinian suffering is very disheartening but do you realise how much the Jews have suffered for years?Taking innocent lives doesn’t help the free Palestine movement. You can support the free Palestine movement without supporting a terrorist organisation.
If any Afghan player goes to Ahmedabad, he won't get this reaction. Rashid Khan is literally the vice captain of Gujarat Titans.
Rizwan got that reaction because he uses religion for PR and propaganda and associates religion with internal issues of India on a consistent basis.
Used to not miss a ball of cricket, even when it was India vs Zimbaabwe , now didn’t even know today was day of India-Pakistan Cricket World Cup match.
Any more like me?
India gave refuge to the Persian Parsis over a thousand years ago, fleeing intolerance and oppression, and helped them sustain their ancient civilization. India has been a country of refuge for many oppressed peoples, and remains a sacred land for spiritual seekers worldwide. If other countries followed India's model of seeking the truth through introspection and meditation, rather than trying to impose it on others by force, we would have much less conflict in the world.
PM Modi in Navratri
==========================
Reporter : PM Sir, what do you eat during Navratri?
Modi : I only eat one single fruit in this Navratri.
Reporter : Sir, which fruit will you eat ?
Modi : I eat the Papaya.
The reactions follow.
• ThePrint : Breaking news. Modi does not like Mangoes, Banana, etc. He favours eating only Papayas.
• Surjewala : Modi likes Papaya; means the Saffron colour. This means he is leading us to Saffronisation of our food choices.
• Shekhar Gupta : This means Modi is only promoting Hindutva. He does not like green fruits means he is against Muslims. This clearly shows Modi has no feelings for Muslims.
• Mamata : I will put a ban on Papaya in Bengal.
• Rahul Gandhi : My favourite fruit is the Banana. I will never eat a Papaya.
• Barkha Dutt : How can PM Modi eat only the Papaya and ignore the rest of the fruits? I am angry and anguished. But I will not be silenced.
• Arnab Goswami : Modi ji, why do you like the Papaya more than other fruit? The Nation wants to know.
• Gupkar Alliance (Farooq Abdullah, Omar Abdullah, Mehbooba Mufti) : Modi doesn't like Kashmiri Apples. This is Modi’s tactic to usurp Kashmir. We will not allow this to happen.
Shashi Tharoor - Eating papaya is nothing but ostentation by Modi.He is displaying a strong Floccinaucinihilipilification towards other fruits. This Rodomontade scripturiented me to land his facade
• Sitaram Yechuri : Selecting an expensive fruit like Papaya shows that Modi is Pro-Capitalist. We would ask for a Judicial Enquiry.
• Arvind Kejriwal : Traditionally AAM (Mango) is considered the King of Fruits. Modi is anti-Aam Aadmi.
• Ravish Kumar : Modi has betrayed his ugly head and communal façade by declaring that he likes Papaya. By deliberately avoiding Green Guavas from the list of fruits that he likes, Modi has clearly demonstrated his anti-Muslim, communal mentality. He is polarising the nation.
• Tweet by Rajdeep Sardesai : Modi likes Papaya – an Indian fruit. Which mean he hates Olives – the Italian fruit. This shows a narrow nationalism. These RSS people have no international taste & class.
• Mani Shankar Aiyar : Modi is a rotten Papaya and must therefore be immediately removed from the basket. Otherwise all Papayas in the basket will rot. A rotten Papaya like Modi has no place in this secular, all-inclusive basket of India.
• Supriya Srinate : मोदीजी विश्व का सबसे महंगा पपीता खाते है I
• Pawan Khera : मोदीजी विश्व के सबसे उच्च किस्म के पपीते से फेिश्यल करवाते है I
• Kanhaiya Kumar : मोदीजी केवल पपीते का केसरी भाग खाते है और हरे भाग को काट कर फैंक देतें है I मोदी ने देश को तोड़ दिया I
• Sadanand Dhume quoting Rupa Subramanya : As per an eminent economist, eating only Papaya can reduce consumption of other foods, thus lowering Indian GDP growth by 100 basis points.
600 Theatre Artists, 100 Filmmakers, 103 Economists, Civil Society Groups and the Award Wapsi brigade has issued a combine statement urging Indians to boycott Papaya, as this fruit is damaging the unity & integrity of India.
Personal Thoughts:
(not for everyone, feel free to skip)
For the longest time, I struggled with my identity.
A Palestinian kid born inside Israel. Like…wtf.
Many of my friends refuse to this day to say the word “Israel” and call themselves “Palestinian” only.
But since I was 12, that did not make sense to me.
So I decided to mix the two and become a “Palestinian-Israeli”
I thought this term reflected who I was.
Palestinian first. Israeli second.
But after recent events, I started to think.
And think.
And think.
And then my thoughts turned to anger.
I realized that if Israel were to be “invaded” like that again, we would not be safe. To a terrorist invading Israel, all citizens are targets.
900 Israelis died so far. More than 40 of them are Arabs. Killed by other Arabs. And even 2 Thai people died too.
And I do not want to live under a Palestinian government.
Which means I only have one home, even if I’m not Jewish:
Israel.
That’s where all my family lives. That’s where I grew up. That’s the country I want to see continue to exist so I can exist.
Palestine should exist too as an independent state. And I hope to see the country thrive and become less extreme and more prosperous. I love Palestine and have invested in Palestine.
But it’s not my home.
So from today forward,
I view myself as an “Israeli-Palestinian”.
Israeli first.
Palestinian second.
Sometimes it takes a shock like this to see so clearly.
@mashtalks__ They Palestinian suffering is very disheartening but do you realise how much the Jews have suffered for years?Taking innocent lives doesn’t help the free Palestine movement. You can support the free Palestine movement without supporting a terrorist organisation.
Even if you dislike Israel.
Supporting Hamas is not the answer.
It’s equivalent to supporting ISIS, Al-Qaeda or Bin Laden because you disagree with America.
A righteous person doesn’t do that.
