Indian Shias attacked while praying for Iraq

[Tshering22]

Shia are hardly 20% of Indian Muslim population.Don't you think Siding with shia will disappoint your 80% sunni indian muslims?

Like Pakistan,India should remain neutral.

Actually we have a choice.

Remember we are a Dharmic nation no matter what our constitution says.

And we will support those who support us.

Shias seem to be the more sensible muslims who use logic compared to the Arab-hardened sunnis.

20% of 18 crores is a lot of people mate.

Again you are looking at quantity. We look for quality.

Shias have threatened GOI to intervene in Iraq by sending troops to protect Karbala and Najaf from falling or else they will leave India forever.

That's dumb. Intellectual support doesn't mean military intervention.

These people should calm down and realize that we are a Dharmic country and have no reason to intervene except getting our citizens out of Iraq.

One question repeatedly strikes my mind. Why Sunnis are more aggressive than Shias. Shias are by and large a peaceful community.




He will not arrest anybody or take any action since each of his action is focused on vote bank politics.

Because Shias always provoke sunnis by insulting companions and wives of prophet muhammad , when sunnis strike then shias play victim card to gain sympathy of the neutral circles.

I guess we would be making mistake if we don't stand against terrorism. We just can't let Savage Sunni terrorists overrun entire middle-east.This will embolden terrorists from Nigeria to Kenya to Somalia to Egypt to Chechenya to Syria to Afghanistan to Pakistan to Xinjhiang and to Kashmir. This needs to be crushed with Iron fist before it dismembers Iraq. Iran, Russia, China need to taken on board and military action should begin if US, UN and NATO fails to stand up to the challenge.

We cannot simply send Indian Army into Iraq to do Iran's job. Iranians are the world leaders for Shias while Saudi is the leader of Salafis/Sunnis and Turks are the leader of the neutral Sufis.

It is their regional problem and as long as it is outside our borders, we have no business to send troops, except maybe to get our folks back safely from the clutches of those filthy ISIS.

But we can always send a battalion or two of the Para(SF) in there on the pretext of rescuing those stranded and kidnapped Indians.I would seriously love to see our Paras kick ISIS a$$es in Iraq

Mate it's high time that the Shi-ites fight back if they really want to live peacefully in the world.The wahabbis are really taking a toll on innocent Shia population for the last 1 decade whether it's in Pakistan or in some other Middle eastern country.Heck the same thing now has happened in India as well,although let me assure you that we Indians won't take these kinds of attacks on our Shia compatriots lightly.The perps will be brought to justice and the state will do whatever it can to stop these types of sectarian clashes in India

Sectarian violence broke out Thursday in a north Indian city when a group of Shia Muslims praying for peace in war-torn Iraq was attacked by a Sunni group.

The Shia group held the prayer ceremony following a call from a cleric in the Sahadatganj area of Lucknow, in Uttar Pradesh.
The gathering on a rooftop in a residential area of Sahadatganj was then pelted with stones by Sunnis, sparking clashes.

“A complaint has been registered against four people. No arrests have been made yet,” Shashikant Yadav, station house officer of Sahadatganj police station, told ucanews.com.

The police official said that nobody was injured in the incident. “The situation is totally peaceful now,” he said, adding that over 100 police officers were deployed in the area to prevent further violence.

Meanwhile, the Indian External Affairs Ministry said the location of 40 Indians abducted in Iraq’s war-torn city of Mosul has been traced, but that no contact had been established with any of the abductors.

The 40 men hail from northern India, and were working in construction and sanitation, and as drivers for the Baghdad-based Tariq Noor Al-Huda construction company.

Violence has been escalating in Iraq as Sunni militants belonging to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant group continue to hold several cities in their bid to establish an Islamic state.

We must stand by our Shiite community in the wake of threats by Sunni extremists.

India should side with Shiites in Shia-Sunni war in Iraq: Subramanian Swamy

New Delhi: As New Delhi continues to work hard to secure the release of 40 Indians kidnapped by the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) militants, BJP leader Subramanian Swamy on Thursday opined that the India should take side with the Shiite community in the ongoing Shia-Sunni war in Iraq.

Speaking to ANI, Swamy termed the ongoing crisis in Iraq as 'a global Shia-Sunni war' and said that India should side with the Shiites as they have been friendly towards the Hindus.

Giving a piece of advice, Swamy said that the Indian government needs to convey to the ISIS that if it wants India to be neutral then the radical organisation should free all abducted Indians.

As the tensions soar in Iraq, Swamy further said that New Delhi should help Iraq, but should not change its friendly policy towards Israel.

The government on Wednesday said that 40 Indian nationals working for a Turkish construction company have been abducted in violence-hit Iraq's Mosul area, which has been taken over by Sunni militants.

External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj today sought to assure the families of the kidnapped Indian nationals, saying the government was making all possible efforts to resolve the crisis.

The MEA has also set up a round-the-clock control room to provide information on Iraq. The same can be reached at 011-23014104 (telephone), 011-23018158 (fax) or through email at controlroom@mea.gov.in.

ISIS has taken control of several Iraqi cities from the state forces and is also posing a threat to the capital Baghdad. The Iraqi government has requested the US to launch air strikes against ISIS militants.

India should abstain itself from shia-sunni war as it can create internal disturbances in india..and if i m not wrong majority of indian muslims are sunnis

Are Shias the dominant Muslims in Lucknow ?

I don't think so

You would be surprised(or maybe not) that Shias are far better integrated in Indian society than Sunni's in almost all parameters.

They are the far more educated than the Sunni's, far better economic prosperity, lower unemployment rate, Shias are very rarely involved in terror activities against India.

On the other hand, Sunni's are the least educated group, one of the poorest economic parameters, high unemployment, almost all terrorist issues are Sunni related.

Sending troops to help Shias in Iraq would isolate us with Saudi who have now taken good steps in handing over terrorists to India.. Saudi money have the potential to destroy any country. We have to play carefully. We are not US where any saudi money is immune.

India should (and will) officially remain neutral as far as Iraq is concerned. But in India if a group riots and hits another while they are praying, it should not be tolerated.

But then in Lucknow such Shia Sunni clashes are common. Sunni rage against Shia leaders is also considerable, in the Lok Sabha elections, several Shia leaders sided against Congress and other 'secular' parties and voiced tacit support for Modi.

You need to be prepared. Iran is a powerful country, they can defend their own borders from terrorists(read ISIL) and terrorist helpers(read Obama). But Shias of other countries need to get together and draw a line, beyond which they will not tolerate. In a world where tolerance is in short supply, protecting one's own life is more important than moral scruples.
There is no need to thank India or Indians for safeguarding her own citizens. The Shia community is patriotic, law abiding, educated and assimilated group and our own System will nab the terrorists harassing them. Unlike other communities, they are much more prosperous - be it in business, IT, research and tech etc.

I don't think so

Do you really think we are asking for it?

The sunni and salafi lunatics are bringing their stupid grudge all over. From our Arabized nuclear neighbour to deep into UP.

After saecoolarijam (mullah-iam style) was dismantled in UP, now the sickos are targeting shiite minorities.

Sending troops to help Shias in Iraq would isolate us with Saudi who have now taken good steps in handing over terrorists to India.. Saudi money have the potential to destroy any country. We have to play carefully. We are not US where any saudi money is immune.

Our troops will be sent to get Indians back. Saudi cannot threaten us in any way. Do you really think we are that weak man that a 100 year old bedouin pack will threaten us based on some new found temporary material pleasures?

I am sorry this is beyond foolish, I realize that this a terrible time for the Shia's in the ME, but India has no reason to enter into a war based on religion. The mess in the ME is one about religious differences and the world already knows which countries are financing them to take out the Shia's in power.

 

[Reviewer21]

Kick those fags who did this. They can do this to Shia anywhere in the world but not in India. And fix this thing in their thick heads.
