Hindus in Newyork show solidarity with Israel and other victims of Jihad

American Freedom Defensive Initiative (AFDI) organized a massive rally at Union Square in New York  City on August  17th  in support of Israel and other persecuted religious minorities.

 Mr. Arish Sahani,  Senior Vice President of Indian American Intellectuals Forum in his speech said that we Hindus like Jews and other victims of jihad have suffered the most at the hands of radical Islam for the last 14 hundred years.   Hence we really feel and understand  the unprecedented  cruelties  and  savageries perpetrated on religious minorities by Islamic  jihadists.  Today we stand with you to express our solidarity.  In fact, we all are natural allies, Sahani emphasized.

Narrating the story of  his childhood,  Mr. Sahani said that I am the survivor of the Partition of India in which millions of Hindus  and Sikhs were mercilessly murdered by radical Islamists  as is happening in the areas controlled by Islamic State in Iraq.  Our women were raped and  millions of worth of our property was looted and burnt.   I stand here with Yazidis and Christians  whose women are being sold as sex slaves, raped,  and men butchered  on daily basis by Islamic State in Iraq.

Referring to the population of Hindus in Pakistan in 1947, Mr. Sahani said that  the Hindu Sikh population in Pakistan was about 22-23%.  Now all of them have been religiously cleansed by radical  Islamists.  Radical Islamists cannot coexist with anyone in any country.    They believe in extremist and supremacist  ideology.   They extol the virtue of exclusiveness, violence and hatred.  Hence I believe that Islam is not a religion but a political ideology.  The aim of this ideology is to dominate  and work for military  conquest of  the country wherever  Muslims  live.  Muslims are working constantly   to  establish Nizam-e-Mustfa (Rule of Allah)  in every country and kill all the infidels if they refuse to convert to Islam.

Chiding the media and expressing his anguish at their irresponsible  support  to some terrorist groups, Mr. Sahani said that  even though liberal and far left media knows it very well that Hamas, Taliban, Al-Qaida, Muslim Brotherhood, Lashkar-e-Taiba,  Indian Mujahideen,   Jaish-e- Muhammed, Boko Haram and other terrorist groups  operating under various names are  sides of the same coin and derive inspiration from the same ideology  – Islam – they, under the guise of human rights,  keep on misguiding  and fooling our citizens by issuing good conduct certificates to the adherents of the ideology which aims at destroying entire humanity, exclaimed Mr. Sahani!
