ghost Posted March 21, 2005 Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 Anyone see it?? A review by a friend: watched an amazing documentary on bbc4, shown at about 10 oclockish about the rise in hundu fascism and the indian (BNP) BJP political party and the RSS and teh bajrang dal and teh recent riots against minority muslims in Gujarat followign teh godhra incident. the documentary was called "India: Final Solution" by Rakesh Sharma. an amazing documentary and a great insight into indian politics and what is going on in rural india. in 2002 countless muslims in gujarat were killed, raped, burnt alive, looted, humiliated and massacred by Hindu Mobs. i think the documentary is such a powerful reminder of what hate can do to people, it isnt a counter-hate campaign, it is an insight into human nature and how mob culture and fascist organisations are takign advantage and brain washing normal people using religion as a political pawn, and also how revenge and hatred makes the whole thing into a vicious cycle. I think the documentary should be shown at universities, because it would really make people think, and appreciate what people living in India are going through. we need to let people knwo that organisations like the nazis, national front, BNP and the BJP, RSS and SHiv SENA or any nationalist organisation should not be allowed to come into power in any country. the documentary was banned in india, but went on to win many awards at film festivals around the country. below is a link to teh bbc news article. also there was another program just before this one called "Hindu Nation" by sir mark tully, part supporting the BJP. here are the bbc links http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcfour/documentaries...-solution.shtml http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbcfour/listings/prog...50_4544_3370_90 http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/film/3542340.stm http://rakeshfilm.com/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 21, 2005 Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 This was a brilliant program on the religious hatred that occured after the Gujrat Riots, really shows how people at the top push their hatred onto youths to carry out crimes in the name of religion. Hopefully the guys at Sikhifm should put it onto their site for the people who missed it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
