As asked on previous threads , which you fail to answer and deviate to other means , the question is Why ?

in particular Why 1984 ?

You are making this out to be Hindu V Sikh , Sikh v Hindu , Sikh V Sikh , Hindu V Hindu ,,,, its about humanity , human rights , being a minority group/ ethnicity does not give anyone the right to do as they please,

Another ?

Why attack Sri Harimandir Sahib , the holiest place for the Sikhs .

What do you think would happen if other places of worship are attacked ?

Attacking the core of any religion only means one thing i.e. to wipe out that sect/faith , if they have no core then they have no place to go to for advice/help etc..

Killing hundreds of innocent civilians ( young children, babies ) at point blank range , thats not the thing i call going after a big bad terrorist , who is causing havock in Punjab .

Wiping out a "big bad terrorist" do you take in tanks , helicopters , thousands of police force into a place of worship and openly firing at civiians ? would you not get the civilians out first ?

Recent events , Police have deliberately taken off Turbans of young sikhs simply because they are rallying against justice ,

whether its Sikh,Hindu,muslim,christian , justice needs to be done

Is India our home, home of Sikhs

At the time of the partition of India in 1947, the Sikhs as a community had decided to be part of India as it had been promised autonomous powers as a reward for the pivotal role it had played during the Indian independence movement. However those promises were soon backtracked upon by the Congress party when it came to power. The Sikhs were not recognized as a separate religion in the Indian constitution and instead regarded as an extension of the majority Hindu faith.

In 1947, the governor of Punjab, Mr. C.M. Trivedi, in defference to the wishes of the Prime Minister Jawahar Lal Nehru and Sardar Patel, the Deputy Prime Minister, issued certain instructions to all the Deputy Commissioners of Indian Punjab...These were to the effect that: "without reference to the law of the land, the Sikhs in general and Sikh migrants in particular must be treated as a "criminal tribe". Harsh treatment must be meted out to them…....to the extent of shooting them dead so that they wake up to the political realities and recognize "who are the rulers and who the subjects". (Kapur Singh, Sachi Sakhi, Amritsar: SGPC, 1993, p. 4-5 ".)

Other D.C. could not have dared to tell about this letter full of prejudice against the Sikhs. It was only Kapur whose conscience was awake and dare to protest against it and paid a heavy price for. The blatant secret policy against the Sikhs continued right from the dawn of so-called independence if you read the role played by Suhrawardy, with Gandhi's blessings, who held discussions with Pakistani leaders. These dealers had the cheek to describe Sikhs, who suffered most because of the partition, as 'impossible'. S Kapur Singh speech on betrayal of Sikhs in the parliament must be on the record. It is a matter of shame that Akalis continued to have faith in Indian democracy in spite of S. Kapur Singh's strong messages.

And readers may note that there were only two Sikh Divisional Commissioners in Punjab, one Sirdar Kapur Singh ji at Kangra and the other at Gurgaon. So this circular must be noticed by other Sikh DC too but he might have ignored it but Sirdar kapur Singh ji objected to it by sending a protest letter. Kindly read the book to know more truth.

Please also read what he wrote on page 9:

"... Punjab's governor, Shree Chandu Lal trivedi, with the persmission and wishes of the deputy Prime Minister and Home Minister, Sardar Patel and Prime Minister shree Nehru, and with the full consent of Punjab's Home Minister, S. Swaran Singh, issued instructions to all the deputy commissioners of Punjab that they should treat all Sikhs, especially those who came from West Punjab,as cirminals. They should be dealt with all possible extreme measures such as physical torture and killing them with bullets. This should be done in such a way, on official basis without caring for Law and Justice, that Sikhs should come to their senses and know who is the ruler and who is the ruled..."

“Extracts from "The Knights of Falsehood".----The Congress is said to epitomize the ‘Brahmanical conspiracy’ that the Akalis have blamed for the consistent ‘humiliation’ and ‘persecution’ of the Sikhs. A leading Akali, Hukum Singh, who wrote in 1952: "Pandit Nehru is, to say the least, the spearhead of militant Hindu chauvinism who glibly talks about nationalism, a tyrant who eulogises democracy and a Goblian [i.e., like Goebbels] liar - in short, a political cheat, deceiver and double dealer in the services of Indian reaction."Nehru to silent the Hukam Singh i.e., Sikh voice, made him join the Congress Party, and eventually became Speaker of the Lok Sabha. But the fact remains, for all to see as reported above for the gradual decrease of the numbers of the Sikhs, in the successive census of India. The Congress has doubled up its efforts."

AND IN 1984 THE INDIAN ARMY DECLARED;

The Government Targeted Amritdhari Sikhs in 1984.

The following quote is from an Indian Army circular which was distributed in June 1984. This excerpt from the official document exposes that in fact all practicing Sikhs were considered terrorists and were targeted by the government:

“Some of our innocent countrymen were administered an oath in the name of religion to support extremists and actively participated in the act of terrorism. These people wear a miniature kirpan round their neck and are called "Amritdharis". They have to be subdued to achieve the final aim of restoring peace in the country. Any knowledge of the "Amritdharis" who are dangerous people and pledged to commit murder, arson and acts of terrorism should be immediately brought to the notice of the authorities. These people may appear harmless from outside but they are basically committed to terrorism."

I also found a circular through research. It was distributed before partition by sikh leaders. It goes something like this.

" After the British leave India and the Moslems are thrown out we need to turn our attention towards the Hindus. We need to kill them, drive them out of their homes. After this initial task is accomplished we need to destroy the heretic Nirankaris and Radhoswamis. To accomplish this Baldev Singh is contact with phoreign agencia for arms, training and funding. The sooner we ethnically cleanse the Hindus and other minorities the better it will be"

The same place you get yours from.

As asked on previous threads , which you fail to answer and deviate to other means , the question is Why ?

in particular Why 1984 ?

Well, DSG, if you are asking why Op Blue Star or the totally unforgivable killings of Sikhs in Delhi happened in 1984, books have been written about these two watershed events.

To give gist of the reasons behind OBS acc to my thinking, and i have said this before, Indira's intentions in ordering OBS were noble - to cleanse Harmandar Sahib of terrorists who had launched a campaign of terror. JSB and various other jathebandis were running parallel governments from Harmandar sahib. The situation in Punjab was deteriorating with every passing day. Punjab Police leadership was demorlised as they had no idea how to contain the spiraling cycle of violence which had its fountainhead in Harmandar sahib complex.

Delhi killings - it is not hard to figure out how such ruthless killings were engineered and by whom. Congress leaders organised the killings with delhi police looking the other way. Jat, Gujjar population living in the outskirts of delhi was mobilised for this task assisted by the so-called sweeper class and muslims living in trans-yamuna cesspits. whatever degree of empathy and anguish an average indian can express over the worst stigma on the independent india's history, it would not be enough.

You are making this out to be Hindu V Sikh , Sikh v Hindu , Sikh V Sikh , Hindu V Hindu ,,,, its about humanity , human rights , being a minority group/ ethnicity does not give anyone the right to do as they please,

it is not all the above? what do you think? i totally agree with you when you say "...being a minority group/ ethnicity does not give anyone the right to do as they please".

Another ?

Why attack Sri Harimandir Sahib , the holiest place for the Sikhs .

Do i have to explain all over again what provoked OBS?

Why turn harmandar sahib into an arsenal, a fortress with gun-totting terrorists every where? why turn the most sacred of Sikh shrine into a place where people were tortured and even killed? why allow hate-spewing 'sants' to denigrate other faiths and order the killings of political, religious, civilian leaders? why allow elements who engaged in killings, rapes, extortion, intimidation... to operate from the complex?

you consider it to be an attack, i call it liberation from terrorists.

What do you think would happen if other places of worship are attacked ?

Please elaborate. If you are asking what happens if a HIndu temple is 'attacked' by the Indian armed forces? I would totally support it if a shiv sena goon, RSS extremist is misusing the premises and has stored automatic weapons within the premises. by all means ...if the army has to demolish the place to snuff out the rats, i would be the last person whining about the friggin sanctity of the place. Muslims did the same with the Grand Mosque seizure in 1979 (most likely inspiration for Indira) and even pakis did an OBS in Lal Masjid seizure.

indian commandos had to attack Akshardham temple to free it from the jehadi terrorists. not even one Hindu complained.

Do some introspection and also read the newspapers just before the OBS.

Attacking the core of any religion only means one thing i.e. to wipe out that sect/faith , if they have no core then they have no place to go to for advice/help etc.

This is non-sensical, hollow rhetoric on which generation of diaspora sikh youth are growing. Typical khali propaganda. i dont know which "core" was wiped out or was intended to be destroyed by the indian army.

Killing hundreds of innocent civilians ( young children, babies ) at point blank range , thats not the thing i call going after a big bad terrorist , who is causing havock in Punjab .

Wiping out a "big bad terrorist" do you take in tanks , helicopters , thousands of police force into a place of worship and openly firing at civiians ? would you not get the civilians out first ?

Recent events , Police have deliberately taken off Turbans of young sikhs simply because they are rallying against justice ,

whether its Sikh,Hindu,muslim,christian , justice needs to be done

I've also seen turbans taken off in Gurudwaras here in Canada, and at parties.
