Sagar M countered my arguments with perceptive insights. However I believe he is mistaken. Rather than respond in comments , I am making a seperate post YSV: Earlier I esquired as to the supremacy clause of Hindutvadis- is the nation state of India or Hinduism that defines them and which they will choose when push comes to shove?--------------------- Sagar: For Hindutva project, blood, soul and earth are inextricably linked mutually. Our objective is to unite all Hindu peoples into one great Hindu state. YSV: Yes but at what cost? And what instruments are being used to create this Hindu state. RSS wants us to subordinate Shiva to a 19th century construct Bharatmata inspired by European nationalism. As a Shaivite, to me this is the most obscene blasphemy! Sagar: Since Hindu religion fosters pan Indian nationalism (read Hindutvavaad) and pan Indian nationalism in turns gives protection to Hindu religion by uniting Hindus, what sense does it makes to ask - “Hindutva or

Peace is achieved not from negotiation during table talks but when there is a victor and a defeated party. All the spin in the media/NGO nexus in the worlds cosmopolitan capitals will not change this simple rule. It is another matter than the media ,academics and "non profits" prefer discussions over war due to their own vested interests. Media and academia have the ability to convince nay spin words into (half) truths , well to an extant as their humiliation last year over Trumps election has shown. It is in their interest to show that THEIR power and not that of guns, bullets , blood and steel has influence on world affairs and in turn they are rewarded with recognition, fame and its attendant riches in speaking fees and book contracts. While NGOs simply siphon off monies from government pretending to help the poor and dispossesed but in general using that money for a cushy life with high salaries, comfortable lodging and high end vehicles. President Trump's bold

Earlier I enquired as to the supremacy clause of Hindutvadis- is the nation state of India or Hinduism that defines them and which they will choose when push comes to shove? Koenraad Elst lays out the case that Hindutvadis are worshipping a false idol of nationalism ,particularly the 19th century European variant based on ethno linguisitic homogeniety which is a bad fit for India. Savarkar in one of his less than bright moments said this -"one nation,  one culture,one language, one religion" which brings us to current day BJP's assault on other modes of Hinduism apart from the safe and sterile Brahmin Vaishya variety which is the composition of BJP.party leadership. What is lacking is the recognition of Kshatriya and Shudra virtues and all the meat eating , bull fighting and animal sacrifices that come with it. Without these aspects India will remain a hollow shell and slave state for years to come. That is the heavy price you pay when when the Hindutva brigade at

Foreign Policy magazine stopped being interesting or incisive right around 2007-2008 when Obama's cult of personality took over and thoroughly contaminated its analysis. Since they have been spewing mostly unimaginative PC shibboleths. So its no surprise when they declare yet another untested attractive multiracial mediocrity Kamala Harris the worlds "top thinker" . Ill leave aside that fantastic declaration for now which isn't really based on anything of substance. Meanwhile Rediff.com has jumped on board hyping up the "Indian American" Senator cataloging her "bad ass" movements most of which entail not following the proper etiquette in a committee hearing in order to grandstand. Yeah, watch out Genghis Khan, Wellington ,Mahadji Shinde and Bose: you have competition! Firstly Kamala Harris is not "Indian American" . Sure her mother is Indian Tamil while her father is African American. Apart from her name, she has no connection to
