Haresh Daswani | The New York Flyby

For those of you who have read the news, you would have noticed an article about the Air Force One jet doing a flyby in New York for a photoop. For whatever reason it was done, and strange enough, with all the people performing the act, this was in the books for ultimate stupidity. Read more

Haresh Daswani | Upcoming Middle East crisis: Handle with care

The new attack of Israel in Gaza and India’s and U.S.’s strong case against Pakistan will stir some very strong emotions amongst people radical extremists in the Middle East are trying to recruit. The whole ploy of these nations is to cause a negative propaganda, a one-sided story that pretends on the idea that they are the victims of crimes they did not commit. This is a negative chain reaction to which the demands do not even make proper sense; it seems that for the pure love of war do these extremists push their agenda. Read more

But it is not out fault, because as idiots, we try to look for others who we feel are more knowledgeable, because they can help us avoid making stupid decisions. Thus, we watch the television. Read more

Haresh Daswani: Hindu Extremists

Column by Haresh Daswani

I have watched several news reports about Hindus that have attacked Christian temples in South India. These acts were barbaric and despotic. This does, indeed, cause an international uproar that I do find unimaginable.

But they never did talk about the entire proper story. Here is a more complete situation in rural South India.

Rural villagers do not have centralized religion. They have community temples where they pray and there are village gurus who impart basic knowledge.
