Hindutva and Zionism hurdles to peace and democracy: Scholars

[Bhairava]

There isn't a dream of a world-wide Israel, or organizations devoted to plotting genocide, and Israel possesses the individual and collective freedoms that the Muslim extremists consciously reject.

Ditto for Hindutvadis.

Funnily they dont even ask for Hindu India...just that Hindus be accorded the same political favours (read appeasement that certain political parties shower on the Abrahamic minorities for their votes).

Placing Hindutvadis who at best can be viewed as isolationists who seek to preserve the Hindu cultural identity of India from outside cultural aggression with suicide bombers who seek a global caliphate and weeding out the unbelievers is ridiculous.

that's it blame the victims. shame on you

According to you ,there was no Godhra carnage where 59 Hindus were burnt alive and which was the spark that ignited the riots.

Shame on you and your thinking.

I found something interesting...

Hindutva: Who is a Hindu?

Savarkar regarded Hinduism as an ethnic, cultural and political identity. Hindus, according to Savarkar, are those who consider India to be the land in which their ancestors lived, as well as the land in which their religion originated.

Sarvakar includes all Indian religions in the term "Hinduism" and outlines his vision of a "Hindu Rashtra" (Hindu Nation) as "Akhand Bharat" (United India), stretching across the entire Indian subcontinent.

the Aryans who settled in India at the dawn of history already formed a nation, now embodied in the Hindus.... Hindus are bound together not only by the tie of the love they bear to a common fatherland and by the common blood that courses through their veins and keeps our hearts throbbing and our affection warm but also by the tie of the common homage we pay to our great civilisation, our Hindu culture."
—(p. 108)

I agree with all the things he mentioned, and Religious practice seems secondary, common blood (heritage) and the ideology seems more important.
