Taslima Nasreen and the Fatwa against her

Taslima Nasreen is a writer from Bangladesh. She is a lady I admire and its unfortunate that she is exiled from Bangladesh and a Fatwa issued against her. Taslima lives in exile in New delhi and continues to write books. Her lates book 'French Lover' is published and earlier her novel 'Lajja' had catapulted her to the big league of writers.

Taslima was born in 1962 and her early life was non descript. She came into limelight after publication of 'lajja' and her anti Islamic views, though she is a Muslim. For this reason a Fatwa was issued on her. In Lajja she brought out the discrimination and persecution of Hindus in Bangladesh, which was not liked by many people. Its a pity that bangladesh does not recognize the greatness of Taslima. Her views on Islam should not come in the way of appreciation of her books. With the coming to power of the BJP and Narendra Modi, Taslima hoped that she would be granted Indian citizenship, but all she has got is a 2 month tourist visa. India needs to wake up and support Taslima as I do

Panchayat Dishes out Wife Swapping as a Punishment

In a village in India, the governing body is the Panchayat who are elected reps from the village. The president of the Panchayat is called the Sarpanch. The Panchayat is the adminstrative authority in a village and hears petty offences and also awards punishment. In a village in rural Utter Pradesh, the North Indian state the Panchayat has passed a unique punishment. One of the married men in the village eloped with the wife of another married man who was also a resident of the village.

The aggrieved man brought his case to the Panchayat, that his wife had been seduced by another man and she had eloped with him. The Panchayat after due deliberation gave a bizarre verdict. It authorised the man who had filed the complaint to keep the wife of the man who had seduced his wife. The Panchayat authorised the man to immediately take the wife of the man, as his own wife and have conjugal relations with her as well as have children. In other words it authorised wife swapping. The Panchayat also added a rider that the woman must concieve with child. A grace period of 90 days was given

My Thoughts on the Burkha worn by Muslim Women

All over the world it is not uncommon to see Moslem women in large numbers travelling by bus and train wearing a black cloak that leaves only the face or the eyes visible. The entire body is covered in a shroud and is distinctive attire that will arrest the eyes of any onlooker. This is dress peculiar to Moslem women and is referred to as the 'Burkha' or the Hijab and many do not also wear it, as it is not compulsory like in India, but in orthodox Moslem nations like Saudi Arabia wearing the Hijab is mandatory and there is no choice in the matter.

Attention on the Burkha has been riveted after the French Assembly banned it in France, as they consider it a form of subjugation of the woman. Moslem clerics there have up held the ban. This banning of the Burkha in public places in France, which is championed by the French President himself has brought the focus on this dress and the world has started taking note of this form of dress. However it must be pointed out wearing of the Burkha is not mandatory. Islam only mentions that women be dressed soberly and not show themselves. The Burkha is an invention of the hard line Moslem clerics.

Recently I had a date with a Moslem girl friend. Earlier she never wore the Burkha, but this time she came with a Burkha on. On my questioning her as to why she had worn it, she replied that it was not a constraint and all she wanted to do was emphasize her identity as a Moslem. As an educated lady she felt it was a symbol of her freedom as well as a mark of identity, and for that reason she liked to wear it. The Burkha is a matter in real terms to be left to the individual girl or woman. Though the security agencies have some apprehension of its use by terrorists as a decoy, yet it is really a harmless piece of clothing. It certainly is a statement of a separate identity and a lot many women will voluntarily wear it.

( This actress is also Muslim) The Burkha however has become part of politics with hardliners on both sides having divergent views. Some visualize it as mark of subjugation while others say it is a mark of individuality. Many European nations are moving ahead to ban the Burkha in the public place. Maybe they have a point, but in India it thrives and is a mark of identity and many women wear it. It cannot be wished away.

Seduction of Women. the Finer Points

Don Juan is recognized as one of the greatest lovers of all time. In all probability his love life centered on his charm and ability to seduce the women he desired. It was an act of tremendous finesse bordering on art itself and certainly is something which many men would like to emulate. Seduction of women has been going on from time immemorial. It is something that has never been defined and is not something tangible. In fact it has a lot to do with the mind and emotion. A man would like to only seduce a woman who he likes or fancies. In that respect it is a part of sex and desire as well. Thus as desire has no bounds, seduction also has no set rules. Bear in mind that seduction is not gender oriented and a woman may also seduce the man she likes.

However in case you do desire a woman and you know her well, it will be a good idea to get to know the background of the person concerned. A little home work would hold you in good stead. Thus do a little snooping and get to know her place of stay/residence, the members of her family as well as her routine of work and leisure. A very important point is getting a whiff of her interests and likings. If possible in conversations try and get to something intangible like her dreams and fantasies. Once you have the necessary details about the object of your desire, you can now proceed to the next step. Remember that coercion or other forms like spiked drinks and food need to be completely eschewed. The entrance of such elements will make the act criminal and can invite a charge of rape. More over it is not something a genuine lover will relish.

Follow up by talking regularly to the woman. Make it a point to gift chocolates and flowers. Learn what she likes and offer to be her escort.Take her to a restaurent or for shopping. In short you must build up trust. Once you have built up trust the next step will flow naturally. The woman may even accompany you to your apartment or invite you to hers. Above all tell her that you love her. It should be the beginning of a romance. That is one ingredient that is essential to move forward. Seduction is an art that deserves a lot of finesse and tact. It is important that one keeps the susceptibilities of the woman or man in mind. Do not force any thing and let the act flow like the river Ganges, slowly and surely in a tranquil manner.

What a Black Feels when he abducts and rapes a white woman.

The black man in America is physically strong and also virile, this is because of the theory of natural selection as enunciated by Darwin. the precent species has evolved from a process of natural selection and is very virile and fit male. Add to this the subjugation of 200 years as a slave and the black man must have an outlet to avenge his slavery.

Nothing could be better than raping a white girl or woman to make his point. It is a form of revenge and pleasure and desire go hand in hand. The black man is thus prone to raping white women. Thsi is not a a fiction but a fact. In 2005 Blacks raped almost 5500 white women, while whites raping black women is zero. Statistics of later years are not available as they are under wraps, but tere is no doubt that blacks enjoy the most when they rape a white woman.

What does a black think when rapinga white woman ? Possibly it gives him a feeling of power and also satisfaction at having attained an object denied to him for long. The world in the USA is changing, but rapes of white women by blacks have not gone down.

Let's Face it the Seeds of the Beheading of US Photo Journalist lies in the Teachings of Islam

I have seen the video on You Tube which depicts the beheading of a defenceless American reporter with a knife by a Jihadi. I understand the Jihadi is now identified as a British Muslim and obviously he takes great relish in beheading a defence less man. The civilized world is appalled, but I have yet to hear a condemnation of the beheading by any Muslim anywhere in the world. This is the sad fact. What is the reason that makes Muslims so heartless and cruel where they ignore the basic requirements of a civilized world? Unfortunately the answer lies in the double speak of the religion itself. Islam advocates killing of kafirs and the Sharia advocates the execution of a death sentence by beheading. Incidentally this is not the first beheading of a western as earlier in Pakistan Daniel Pearl another reporter was also beheaded.

Islam talks of Jihad or a religious war and I can safely say no other religion advocates a war on religious grounds. Since there is double speak in the religion, hard liners interpret it their own way and draw their own conclusions. Its about time the moderate Muslims banded against this hydra which is represented by teh ISIS. Come to think of it all this may not have happened if Bush had not removed saddam Hussein and hanged him. He was the man who kept extremists at bay and hanged dozens of them. The USA lost the plot, when they hanged Saddam and though I am saddened by this killing ,the blame in a way lies at the door of George Bush.
