Hakim and His Ilk
Don't Understand That Muslims Are Being Used By This Crafty Woman Whose Only
Objective Is To Perpetuate The Rule Of Trinamool Congress In West Bengal And
Retain Her Post Of The CM Till Death Just Like The Bearded Megalomaniac At The
Helm Of Indian Politics.

"Calcutta
Mayor and close aide of West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, Firhad
Hakim's recent speech stirred a controversy after he said that people who are
not born in Islam are unfortunate. His speech openly called out people to
convert to Islam. His remarks came during an ‘All India Quran Competition’
event that took place on July 3."

Firhad
Hakim is a moron whose brain has slipped into his rectum. While his statement
requires to be condemned in no uncertain terms, you must also ponder as to who
emboldened this man. The CM Mamata Banerjee, now called Begum Mamata, has
lionised these rogue elements. Hakim and his ilk don't understand that Muslims
are being used by this crafty woman whose only objective is to perpetuate the
rule of Trinamool Congress in West Bengal and retain her post of the CM till
death just like the bearded megalomaniac at the helm of Indian politics.
The only
difference lies in approach. While the bearded 'gentleman' wants to rule by
eliminating all Muslims, this stormy petrel of Bengal wants to embolden
Muslims.
Mind you,
she's not a sympathiser of Muslims. In fact, no political dispensation right
from independence has ever genuinely cared for the Muslim community and its
issues. All parties have used them (Muslims) as vote banks. Since Muslims tend
to vote en masse in favour of a specific party, Mamata has been encouraging them
to thrive and survive in her state which has become a shelter for the dubious
Muslims coming from Bangladesh, Burma and neighbouring countries. These people
have been staying illegally in West Bengal and they vote for Mamata and her
party for their survival. In return, Mamata looks elsewhere for her political
survival. In other words, it's a perfect quid pro quo arrangement.
Go to the
hinterland of West Bengal and you'll see Bangladeshis living illegally. Muslims
outnumber Murshidabad in West Bengal. It's an open secret that Muslims of
Murshidabad adjust their watches as per the time in Bangladesh which is 30
minutes ahead of India. For example, if it's 10 am in India, watches and mobile
time displays of many Muslims (though not all) in Murshidabad will show 10:30
am. So, it's obvious that these Muslims labour under the belief that Bengal is
their fiefdom and Islam will soon be the faith of mankind. Mamata Banerjee is
to be blamed for creating such a vicious mind-set. It's the tragedy of this
country that we've a dire dearth of honest politicians who can think beyond
their vested interests.
