Re: India, not Europe, will be Tipping Point for islam.

I dont think the west has ever supported Hindus thanks to their wooly eyed understanding. They historically supported islam and musalmaans on every issue including Kashmir. British in fact backed muslims to the hilt including creation of pakistan. Sept 11 was the tipping point.

When Qandahar hijacking happened, L K Advani, India's Home Minister requested US for help. US declined to do anything meaningful. Perhaps they were dreaming of Trans afghan oil line.

Only when the criminals freed in that sordid episode carried out further escapades - Sept 11 attacks, Daniel Pearl's killing et. al. set the west thinking. Even that did not stop west from denying the highly popular, competent bold and charismatic leader of Gujarat NaMo (Mahatma Narendrabhai Modiji) visa. Modi remains the leader that broke the back of islamism in western India.

I am not including Israel in the west, because unknown to prying media, as a military partner they have rendered India help and support when most needed - during the islamic Kargil attack and to bolster India against muslim intrusions.

India has ~ 200 million muslims. As my earlier post in "Europe Resists Islamisation" highlighted, muslims and islam do well in democracies. What I have suggested there need to be implemented. In India, west will be better off alligning themselves with the conservative and rightist forces like the BJP. Leftist congress and communist forces of india have a vested interest in boosting islam and the resultant terrorism.

This is important because, India and not Europe is the place where the fight against islam is at a more advanced stage.
