Pls leave me, Arundhati

No, she isn't my maniac, pestering girl friend. I am talking about Ms. Arundhati Roy. She has problems with dams, human rights in kashmir, democracy in India (or lack of it)

NEW YORK, MAY 22 :In an explosive expression of her views, celebrated Indian writer Arundhati Roy told an audience here that ‘‘India is not a democratic country’’. ‘‘The biggest PR myth of all times is that India is a democracy. In reality, it is not,’’ Roy, the author of The God of Small Things told the 1,000-strong audience at a book reading function she attended along with Eduardo Galeano, one of Latin America’s most distinguished writers.

Ma'am, if you were born in china/ saudi, you would have been shot or still better lying in jail for 5 life terms. She talks about "Does Thomas know that in Kashmir Valley alone, some 80,000 people have been killed? In Iraq, there are 1,50,000 military personnel, whereas in Kashmir Valley there are some 7,00,000.’’

Ma'am, we don't have equipement that americans have. Or else, we could have killed 800000 with much lesser number of soldiers. And how many have been killed in iraq for the past 3 yrs? I guess atleast 250000. And 80000 people since 1980/1990. That's 10/15 members per day? I believe atleast 100 people die in road accidents. That's not trivialising death. But that's saying we have so many issues. Where were you when a massacre happened in Udhampur about few days ago? Hmm, let's blame indian intelligence agencies.
Ok, what's your problem with dam? height, existence, rehabitilation, publicity...pls, select one of those.
I am no right-wing-hindu fundamentalist. But to see a conspiracy when there is none is a crime.
We have so many issues, to blame manmoham/ bush for all of our problems is a mistake. You want to be an lite marytr, without losing any of your benefits.
You had all advantages of an elite upper caste indian. Being groomed well, getting educated in an elite school,...
Preaching is easy, complaining is more easy. You are a hypocrite with no good reason for your weird, stupid , megalomanic, exhibitionist behaviour.
