....`` I am no literary critic....``

Perhaps that is the reason you are a productive member of society.

In order to be a Lit-Leechur of the englo-type one must:

1) Drop hints about having smoked narcotics in a nudge nudge wink wink kind of `politeness`.... Charsee & bhangee is now a lifestyle because their massas are proud of it.

2) Must let the word out that liquor is a subject worth discussing & drunkards are really not bad guys...except that they just OD on it.

3) Some hints about extra-marital & illicit encounters on exotic trips further elevates their grammatical & expository skills.

4) Mentioning of having a respect for musli8ms, islam, saying eidmubarak, ramazan mubarak and visits to masjids suddenly brings down their engloIQs.

5) Identifying with atheist, communists, humanists, satanist, & humanists suddenly gives them the tingling feeling of being rushdickic. Their hair rise like porcupine quills whenever mullah, maulana, and Allama kind of learned & knowledgeable people are mentioned.

Only losers are Lit-leechurs in life.

Just ask Urstruly and he will corroborate what I`ve said.

Naqshbandi:

``A sad thing I noticed was that amongst the young ppl almost everyone was desparate to get out of Pakistan and go to the West... ``

Yes, but do not make the mistake of thinking that these people have no love for the soil. A distrust of the establishment is not the same as not having love for your country. If the establishment is parasitic, then the individual who wants to live an honest and dignified life has an obligation to escape.

Maybe I will write an article for Chowk about my experiences and thoughts...


I would really look forward to it.

You make alot of presumptions about my religious background. It is more complex than your reductive brain sems to presume. Whats with the reference to Jats? I am not a Jat.

hari makes a simple point which you seem unable to reconcile or assimilate. B***ards responsible for the murder of thousands of innocent people should be punished in perpetuity until the proponents of a political culture that absolves and allows politicians to get away with the mass slaughter of thousands of innocents are destroyed. Of whatever political hue. Comprendez?

The people responsible for the obscuring of Godhra are the lynch mobs inspired by Milosevic Modi.

The accusation of ``stirring hate`` because I insist on justice for the victims of pogroms most clearly illustrates the hysterical mindset you display so unashamedly here. It is truly pathetic.

Read my post again. It will test the casuistry skills of a master evader like you, but you should be able to understand it eventually.

Harpreet:

Instead of calling names, you would have gained lot of respect if only you commented about what Ashuthosh Versney said.

I don`t understand people like you .... who are seemingly sensitive to human condition yet jump to calling names if different perspective arises.

``The people responsible for the obscuring of Godhra are the lynch mobs inspired by Milosevic Modi. ``

Wow! That`s deep, man. Surprised you didn`t say that Modi was responsible for Godhra. Some of your friends actually beleive that 4000 jews didn`t show up for work.

Unfortunately, Indians like you are penny a dozen.

PS. THERE IS A MIDDLE PATH.

actually RSAXENA--I AM the same Asif Naqshbandi as before; it is not someone using a nick similar to mine but me myself....

Stuka: Yes I didn`t say they were unpatriotic--it just seems there is not much opportunity for the average person...

Quit whining. You talk about a middle path then come out with the ``hate mongering`` slur as soon as someone points out the rancid state of Indian politics? Get a life.

Making ethnic caste slurs like ``yamla jatt`` then play the ``middle path man``. Dont make me laugh.

{{Wow! That`s deep, man. Surprised you didn`t say that Modi was responsible for Godhra. Some of your friends actually beleive that 4000 jews didn`t show up for work.}}

Who are ``my friends``, you asshole?? You mean those Muslim fundamentalists who believe in the 4000 holidaying Jew theory are ``my friends`` because I criticise Indian politicians and the fact that they remain free after slaughtering thousands of innocent people like hogs? That puts me in the same boat as Muslim fundamentalists?

You truly are pathetic.

{{Unfortunately, Indians like you are penny a dozen }}

Yeah, it is unfortunate that there are people like me who hate the mass murdering establishment of Indian politics. Indians are of course lucky to having an oh-so-middle-path-treading person like you who resorts to caste slurs and implies Muslim fundamentalist motives at the slightest ounce of criticism of the Indian establishment. I cannot freaking stand Muslim fundamentalists.

Yes INDIA IS SO LUCKY to have you and your type.

Your responses are becoming more incoherent. Give it up, Einstein.
