Address to Duma By Vladimir Putin

Address to Duma By Vladimir Putin

This is a post I subscribed to Face Book an year back. Just reposting it to draw your attention on the subject.

On February 4th, 2013, Vladimir Putin, the Russian president, addressed the Duma, (Russian Parliament), and gave a speech about the tensions with minorities in Russia:

"In Russia live Russians. Any minority, from anywhere, if it wants to live in Russia, to work and eat in Russia, should speak Russian, and should respect the Russian laws.

If they prefer Shari `a Law, then we advise them to go to those places where that's the state law. Russia does not need minorities. Minorities need Russia, and we will not grant them special privileges, or try to change our laws to fit their desires, no matter how loud they yell 'discrimination'. We better learn from the suicides of America, England, Holland and France, if we are to survive as a nation. The Russian customs and traditions are not compatible with the lack of culture or the primitive ways of most minorities. When this honourable legislative body thinks of creating new laws, it should have in mind the national interest first, observing that the minorities are not Russians.

The politicians in the Duma gave Putin a standing ovation for five minutes!

But here in India we Hindus are making a fool of ourselves. We get marginalized and are treated as second class citizens in our own country under the misunderstood and misused terms and concepts like 'Secularism' 'religious tolerance', 'Minority rights' and a lot of similar nonsense!

Do you not think that at least now we should learn from Valdimir Putin's talk and have the courage to say that we are Hindus and are proud to be so. And above all have the correct attitude towards the so called 'minorities'? And treat them accordingly!

Kindly give this some careful thought and thereafter, if you deem fit, do communicate this to your friends.

London Borough of Harrow's Mayor's reply to Muslims 

against pork. Pork will continue to be served in UK schools.
......................................
MAYOR REFUSES TO REMOVE PORK FROM SCHOOL CANTEEN MENU... EXPLAINS WHY
Muslim parents demanded the abolition of pork in all the school canteens of a London suburb. The mayor of the London suburb of Harrow, has refused, and the town clerk sent a note to all parents to explain why...
“Muslims must understand that they have to adapt to United Kingdom, its customs, its traditions, its way of life, because that's where they chose to immigrate.
“They must understand that they have to integrate and learn to live in London.
“They must understand that it is for them to change their lifestyle, not the British who so generously welcomed them.
“They must understand that British are neither racist nor xenophobic, they accepted many immigrants before Muslims (whereas the reverse is not true, in that Muslim states do not accept non-Muslim immigrants).
“That no more than other nations, the British are not willing to give up their identity, their culture.
“And if the United Kingdom is a land of welcome, it's not the Mayor of Harrow who welcomes foreigners, but the British people as a whole.
“Finally, they must understand that in the United kingdom with its Christian roots, Christmas trees, churches and religious festivals, religion must remain in the private domain.
The London Borough of Harrow was right to refuse any concessions to Islam and Sharia.
“For Muslims who disagree with secularism and do not feel comfortable in the United Kingdom, there are 57 beautiful Muslim countries in the world, most of them under-populated and ready to receive them with open halal arms in accordance with Sharia.
“If you left your country for the United Kingdom and not for other Muslim countries, it is because you have considered that life is better in the United Kingdom than elsewhere.
“Ask yourself the question, just once, “Why is it better here in the United Kingdom than where you come from? ”

By applying the same argument, we have to request all our brothers & sisters of other religions to accept & follow a common civil code in India, setting aside vote bank politics, across all parties & enact a law for common civil code, which should include:
1. Declaration of Cow as national animal
2. Ban of cow slaughter & consumption of beef
3. Common laws for marriage & divorce, payment of alimony & child care etc., 
4. This will transform India into a true secular country, keeping our Sanathana Dharma intact.
