Zionists bring mysticism as a vehicle of entry into Indian Muslim ethos
Israelis have cottoned up to Indian people's deep commitment to all mystical, Para-supernatural, pseudo-religious phenomena and had been opportunistically trying to win the hearts and minds of especially Muslims, by visits to Dargahs, burial sites of revered Muslim saints. The Israeli Ambassador's visit to Ajmer Dargah should be an affront to Indian Muslims, while Israelis are so deeply involved in war crimes, ethnic cleansing and usurpation of Palestinian lands.
The visit of Jewish French President and his wife Carla Bruni, to the Dargah of Sufi Saint Saleem Chisti, at Fatehpur Sikri, too should be viewed in a holistic Jewish/Zionist attempt to creep into India, through working among the illiterate and ill-informed Muslim milieu.
In Fatehpur Sikri Mazar of Saleem Chisti, the Jewish Sarkozy, put out a ruse as to be following the foot-steps of India’s most popular Mughal Emperor, Akbar, who got his son, Jahangir, widely believed to be through the blessings of the Saint. Sarkozy is endorsing the legend to cozy up to the sentiments of all those who are so steeply convinced of the miracles of getting children through the intervening blessings of the Saints.
Sarkozy’s reputation vis a vis Muslims can be judged by his vigorous campaign and banning of Burqa as Symbol of Islamic presence in a Catholic/Pseudo secular France and Sarkozy's earlier forays into French Muslim quarters, when he was the interior minister and had come down very heavily on Muslims, sending them to prison, in a wholesale drive.
It is for the Indian Muslims to keep their Indian compatriots informed of the deep animosity between Zionists, Israel and Islam and the conspiracies that the Zionist can plant in their land which has escaped the evil designs till Hindutva leaders went out and got Israel to come to India with their notorious skill at fighting Muslims and Islam, not only in Palestine, but all over the world. The teaming up of Hindutva forces and Zionists will never bring peace to India, unless both the violent ideologies are openly and boldly confronted by the secular forces in India.

JAIPUR, December 12, 2010 Muslims upset over Israeli Ambassador's remarks
Special Correspondent “Arab-Israeli dispute should not be seen as involving religions”
Muslim groups in Rajasthan have expressed surprise over the remarks of Israeli Ambassador to India Mark Sofer during his weekend visit to the State that Israel was “not in any type of conflict” with Islam. They said the remarks should be judged in the light of eviction of thousands of Palestinian Muslims, illegal construction of Jewish settlements and threats to the historic Al-Aqsa Mosque.Mr. Sofer, who visited the Ajmer dargah in September this year, went to Bassi town near Jaipur this past Thursday to launch a new Indo-Israeli centre of agricultural excellence.
He said on the occasion that the Arab-Israeli dispute should not be seen as involving religions and the three great Abrahamic religions were the offshoots of the same faith.
The Rajasthan Muslim Forum – an apex body of Muslim groups in the State – said here on Saturday that while the Israeli envoy's visit to the dargah was merely a “diplomatic gesture” addressed to the Indian Muslim community before the start of peace process in West Asia, his latest observations were “insincere” as they were not backed by the ground realities in his country.
“The very establishment of Israel on the Palestinian land in 1948 was the outcome of an alliance forged between Zionism and European colonialism based on a weird mixture of religious myths and colonial interests leading to the Balfour Declaration,” pointed out Muslim Forum convenor Qari Moinuddin, adding that the Jewish State continues to suppress Muslims in the occupied territories.
Ancestral right
There are “credible reports” that Israel, which claims an ancestral right of Jews to the Palestinian land, is planning to destroy Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem – the third holiest site of Islam – through an excavation plan, according to the Muslim Forum.
“Extremist elements among Jews supported by Christian evangelists have announced that the mosque would be demolished and a Jewish temple built in its place.”
Mr. Moinuddin said the Israeli authorities were digging underneath the mosque and had constructed tunnels weakening its foundations. As part of its declared policies, Israel had closed Jerusalem to Palestinians with a wall, destroyed Muslim neighbourhoods and was penetrating the Muslim quarter of the Old City to build synagogues and put Jewish settlers there, he added.
“In spite of all this, Mr. Sofer observing that Israel is not in conflict with Islam is outrageous. Israel's official policies involve religious discrimination in its dispute with Palestinians who have been [rendered] homeless in their own land,” said Muslim Forum member and Jamat-e-Islami Hind State president Mohammed Salim.
Mr. Salim pointed out that Israeli Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu's refusal this week to freeze construction of Jewish settlements had led to international concerns. Besides, there is a proposal to shift Israeli Muslims compulsorily to any future Palestinian State and the rabbis have ruled that Jews must not rent or sell property to Arabs.
‘Annul agreement'
Referring to Mr. Sofer's remarks that disputes “between nations” should not be ascribed to religions, the Muslim Forum asked in its statement: “Where is the Palestinian nation to form an equal footing? It is Israel which is opposing the legitimate Palestinian claims to statehood.”
The Muslim Forum demanded that the Rajasthan Government annul the agreement signed with Israel for establishing the agricultural centre, which “in fact, is an Israeli subterfuge to get legitimacy for its policies through interventions in the development sector”.
The Muslim Forum regretted that Indo-Israeli defence ties were constantly expanding without any regard to Israel's track record and delegations from India were routinely visiting the Jewish State to study its “development projects”.
The latest instance is that of a BJP delegation led by party president Nitin Gadkari which would be leaving for Israel on a “goodwill visit” this Monday.
