Oral Sex

It’s about time India stopped indulging in oral sex with the Pakis and resorted to some real games with them – you know what kind!

The genesis of this mentality and attitude of we Indians is buried in the history of modern India. Not the Chacha Nehru history that all Indian unsuspecting students have to “mug” for their board examinations which are in any case are biased towards the Gandhi family courtesy the HRD ministry of the GOI, but the real Indian history which is far from boring and is better than any suspense thriller I have read in my life.

It all started some time in 1949 when Jinnah was sulking and Gandhi was all too keen to appease him and this is where the series of BIG MISTAKES by India began:

Mistake No. 1: Gandhi gave 30 crores to Jinnah during Independence

Despite Sardar Patel’s insistence, explanations and urges to Gandhi not to do so, Gandhi overruled Sardar and gave 30 crores to the Pakis. Sardar Patel had told Gandhi that if he really wanted to help the Pakis he should give them food but with cash they would only go out and arm the Mujahedeen to fulfil their sinister designs on Kashmir.

For reasons best known to Nehru, he acceded to “Mahatma” Gandhi’s blackmail of going on a hunger strike and yielded. The net result was exactly what Sardar Patel had predicted. The Pakis armed the Mujahedeen with that money and sent them to Kashmir to wage war on India.

It was only the deft manoeuvring of Maharaja Hari Singh by Sardar Patel which saved the day and the Indian army landed in Sri Nagar airport minutes before the Pakis to take control of Kashmir.

Mistake No. 2: The way the 1971 war was handled

The Indian army had wrested control and our generals were all set to take control of Lahore and Islamabad in 1971 when the cease fire and The Shimla Agreement happened between Indira Gandhi and Bhutto. Mrs. Gandhi returned all captured territory to the Pakis.

The logic for this gesture has not been understood till date by me or the Generals who led motivated army jawans who lost lives for the sake of their country. Appeasement of the Pakis was more important for political reasons best known to Mrs. Gandhi than the sentiments of India’s citizens or jawans.

Mistake Nol. 3: Release of Rubaiya by the GOI

The Mistakes No. 1 and 2 had created the foundation for the Kashmir militancy and when the problem was still in its infancy, the militants tested their strength versus the preparedness of the Indian establishment by kidnapping the daughter of the then home minister of India Mufti Md Syed.

The V. P. Singh government chose to release militants in return for the release of the Mufti’s daughter and thereby sowed the seeds for future kidnappings and militancy in the valley.

This one rather, insignificant and incongruous event was responsible for what we are facing today in our streets and hotels and bazaars every other day.

Mistake No. 4: The Mandal Commission in the mid nineties

By now the Indian subcontinent had been introduced to militancy and terrorism although no one at that stage thought how big this problem would become and everyone was all too eager in consolidating their territory or turf. More so the politicians like V. P. Singh.

V. P. Singh was playing Chess with the Congress and the stake was the crown of India. Unfortunately at stake were the people of India. The India of diverse cultures, caste, religion, beliefs, lifestyle, dialect and mannerisms. V. P. Singh further fragmented the parchment of this country with 27% reservations for OBCs under the guise of the recommendations of the Mandal Commission.

The sole purpose for this reservation was creation of Political vote banks and I am willing to rot in hell if V. P. Singh had even an iota of consideration for the OBCs whose messiah he chose to become.

This certainly did little to improve the lot of the OBCs in India but was certainly highly successful in becoming the harbinger of political unrest and caste based fragmentation of India for the next two decades. It also acted as a catalyst towards escalating the Kashmir problem by providing a platform for Human Right activism to the Pakis in Kashmir.

Mistake No. 5: The Kandahar Hijacking

We Indians never seem to learn from our mistakes and take pride in repeating them. The seeds of audacity that had been sowed by virtue of our Mistake No. 3 had by now become a full bloomed tree of fearlessness and naked aggression and the militants kidnapped an Indian airliner to Kandahar and demanded the release of three most wanted terrorists in return for the hijacked passengers.

No prizes for guessing what the GOI did. They exchanged terrorists for passengers and exposed the chink in the Indian armour into a gaping hole.

That The Parliament attack, The Akshardham Temple, BSNL HQ in Sri Nagar, and the Mumbai train blasts happened was no surprise. We asked for it. Didn’t we?

Mistake No. 6: The Oral Sex

So much water has flow under the bridge. We are constantly under attack and words like terrorism, RDX, militancy, kidnappings; bomb blasts etc have entered the jargon of school children. We are constantly under siege and militancy has entered our lives and drawing room conversations, but we the Indians are still indulging in oral sex with our neighbour. It is reminiscent of two old couple who indulge in oral sex. They both say “F.... Y...” to each other and the act is deemed to have been completed.

I am amazed at the dexterity with which all the Barkhas, Arnabs, Rajdeeps and channels in a perpetual race for the No. 1 position are competing with each other in the oral format of this game. In the process they are misleading the Indian public at large and resorting to rhetoric in high decibels with the sole objective of increasing their TRPs.

We, the ever gullible Indians are being mesmerised with these antics and are simmering with a sense of delight at hearing the echo of our own sentiments in a dramatised form in these TV channels.

How long are we going to be fooled by the establishment and the media? For how long are we going to continue making these mistakes? For how long are we to indulge in oral sex?

Enough said. Enough heard. Let’s actually go out there and “F...” them.
