Love is Always the Victim

[Guest guest]

Friends,

>From CNN. asia,

***Waving religious saffron flags, the 20 Hindu nationalists demanded

a ban on Valentine's Day celebrations. They described cards for the

lover's day as "obscene," and a violation of mainly Hindu India's

cultural ethos.

 

 

***Activists from the Shiv Sena party ransacked gift shops of the

Archies Gallery stores in New Delhi and tore up cards. Attacks were

also reported in other Indian cities, including Bombay and Lucknow.

When Fundimentalism couples up with Nationalism, whether Christian,

Moslem or Hindu, it seems Love is always the 1st victim.

 

yours in the bonds,
