Modi-fying victory

Parallels can be drawn between Hitler and Modi. Both of them had an Iron clad grip on some of their people, both of them brought economic prosperity while one was annihilating Jews, the other was tacitly letting Muslims be butchered. The ones who were/are reaping the benefits of the unprecedented economic prosperity considered both the men as their God given leaders; their word was the final word to them. However deep down, any soul should feel the intense pain and suffering of the victims, after all without such feeling, one cannot be called a human. Adharma is a bigger killer of a civil society than any weapons of mass destruction.

Its no big deal that a man like Modi has won in Gujarat.

The votes are receipts of thanks from the post Godhra rioters.

These are the people who looted and raped and murdered with impunity at his goading.

These are the very people who crawl outside the doors of embassies of Western countries wanting to get in to those largely Christian nations, but at the same time harrass and mistreat Christians in Gujarat. Their soulmates in other RSS run states of India continue with their own agenda of ill treatment and sidelining the minorities.

The mandate does not exonerate Modi but rather exposes the lack of morality and conscience of the Gujarati, which have been subordinated by petty mercantile considerations.

In short, no big deal! Modi is a murderous bastard. They are many such bastards in Gujarat. They voted. He won.
