Modi’s Visa Pains
So the United States has done it again --- acting as God to other nations.....
My 2 cents.... It is true that there have been human rights violations in Gujarat and the massacre of Muslims in that state during the Modi - Vajpayee regime was despicable -- a throwback to barbaric times....
However the matter is a purely internal one.... India is a vibrant democracy and the people there are smart enough to choose their leaders......
The United States has no business playing big brother and deciding who is right or wrong -- this is uncalled for interference in India's affairs...
Hypothetically India can pay back the US with the same coin...
Bush is definitely guilty of Human rights violations in Iraq, Guantanamo bay and Afghanistan..... So how would Uncle Sam take it if some country refuses to issue a visa to the president because of his policies....?
so all said and done ... there have been horrible scenes in Gujarat ,... however this is an internal matter in India and India can handle this on its own ... it does not need some one else playing the judge ....
There is a Kabir Doha which says that one should look @ the log in one s own eye before criticizing the speck of dust in another’s eye....
Maybe the US and its prez must learn that..........
finally I have been browsing through some forums where quite some Indians feel that it is justified and it is a good thing that US is passing such a judgment -- all I can say is that this was the kind of mentality of seeking outside help to resolve internal disputes which got India in trouble in the first place ... off course the US has its right to give/deny visas like any other country, but the reason they used to deny Mr. Modi’s visa is pretty sad…..
I do not like Modi or his policies, but the policies followed by the US are downright despicable.

not the song but the back ground tracks in movies ......
