Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

India: Five Muslims plotted jihad murder of Hindu leader

Sep 5, 2018 11:07 am By Robert Spencer

They were imitating the Assassins of old in targeting a non-Muslim leader for assassination. You can read the strange story of the Assassins in my new book, The History of Jihad From Muhammad to ISIS, which you can order here now.

“Tamil Nadu: Five held in Coimbatore for plotting to murder Hindu Makkal Katchi leader Arjun Sampath,” Express News Service, September 3, 2018 (thanks to The Religion of Peace):

COIMBATORE: The city police, based on a tip-off from Central intelligence agencies, arrested five Muslim youth for allegedly hatching a plot to murder Hindu Makkal Katchi (HMK) leader Arjun Sampath and his son Omkar Balaji, on Saturday night. Four of them were already on the radar of the Central intelligence agencies when they showed up at Coimbatore Railway Junction; the fifth person had gone to the station to receive the other four.

A social media page was the only link between the four Chennai youth — Jafar Safiq Ali (29) of Vysarpadi, Ismail (25) of Tindivanam, Samsudeen (20) of Pallavaram and Shalavuddin (25) of Pallavaram, and one Coimbatore boy — Ashik (25) of Variety Hall Road. And the alleged plan to murder HMK leader Arjun Sampath and son Omkar Balaji.

Sources privy to the investigation told Express that the five had discussed ways to kill Arjun and had spread hatred against on social media, they had plans ready for Omkar as he was an easier target, given that the former had police protection. One of the five members was said to be a sympathiser of the Islamic State of Jammu and Kashmir and a member of the banned terrorist organisation; two others from Chennai were members of political parties. Ashik was facing several cases, including kidnapping school girls, in the city. He had been under the radar of the city intelligence for his notorious activities but his radical activities had not come to light till now, sources added.

“Though these youth did not have any previous enmity with the leader, they were inspired by the IS module and other radical religious outfits and hatched a plot,” a senior official said….

After Coimbatore City Police arrested five youth — one from the city and four from Chennai — for reportedly plotting to kill Hindu Makkal Katchi (HMK) leader Arjun Sampath and son Omkar Balaji, sources in the city intelligence confirmed that Omkar had indeed received death threats two months ago….

    Tamil Nadu state in which Coimbatore is in, is now a hot bed of Islamic jihadis, supported and abetted by the so called shameless leaders of the Dravidian parties. Also they support rogue Christian evangelical organisations like green peace, PETA, etc that foment violence in the society and oppose all development projects undertaken. A profitable copper mining factory called sterilite was forcibly closed by Christian evangelical groups and jihadis, strange bedfellows considering that Christians are being decimated in the middle East. India needs to treat Christian evangelical groups on par with jihadi groups and banned.

      The Dharmic world must unite. Xtians are desperate to convert people to a regressive creed (xtianity) that Dr. Koenraad Elst correctly states retarded science by 1000 years. The Baltic states were among the last of the Western Aryans (descended from Ditya to fall to a semitic creed. Dr. Frawley has written an excellent articled entitled “Vedic origins of the Europeans: Children of Danu”.

      For semites, if the man is moslem the offspring is moslem; if the woman is a jew the offspring is a jew. Semitic creeds are regressive and hollow. It’s all about the numbers and worthless fiat currency and the desire to lord it over everyone else with the semites. Osho rightly states that anyone attempting to give anyone a belief system is that person’s biggest enemy – xtians are born sinners – xtians and moslems and jews associate body with sin (thus the obsession with modest dress – no concept of seeing fellow human beings as brothers and sisters – only as objects of lust) – body is fortress of Paramatman -there are realms of bliss within every creature – these divine realms are accessed through meditation, prayer and seva (volunteering). Keep Asia clean – we are Divine beings -not born sinners. Advances attributed to quantum physics are rooted in VEDA – word wit and wed are connected to VEDA – daily top blogger Vadakayil explains that foundation of science is in fact the Veda – Osho states Veda is 90 000 years old.
      Osho took rebirth after 700 years and has prophecied that in about 500 years Nietzche’s Thus Spake Zarathustra will become the new bible for the world. Semitic creeds steal wealth of others (mercantile colonialism and jizya) – Dharmic societies create wealth – for generations to come – reincarnation is powerful motivator. Knowledge is true wealth.
      The Dharmic communities – Jain, Vedantic, Buddhist, Zarathustran, Sikh, ISKCON etc.) have a duty to set aside petty ethnic differences so as to unite and unify all Dharmic peoples and territories. For truthful persons it is already Satya Yuga – the Golden Age.

      Not true.

      It was shut down because it was spreading lethal pollution.

        BS Chand. The chairman of the Vedanta group offered to allow inspections to happen for a month and if found guilty agreed to shut down. But fundamentalist Christian organisations backed by scoundrels from the Vatican, green peace and the red terrorists etc forced it to close. The entire southern districts of Tamil Nadu is reeling under the grip of the 3Ms. Marxists, Muslims and “Mary”. I’ve seen this first hand.

          Sep 6, 2018 at 8:38 am

          This article is about Islamics trying to kill a Hindis elected official, not about Christians being terrorist. If you can find proof of Christians plotting to kill an Indian elected official then show us the proof. The link between green peace,” fundamentalist Christians” and the Vatican where is it ?Are Christians there forcing people to convert to Christianity or be killed, are they trying to put a special tax on non-Christians ? You point to one mine shut down that was accuse of being a great source of pollution what is the link of Christian groups beside your say so that they were responsible for shutting down the mine? The Hindis that immigrated to Europe or America can you find any links on them being for being forced to renounce their faith and become Christian or Jewish? Can you post any links to terrorist attacks on Hindu Temples by Christians or Jews in the West or the East by Christians or Jews? You have Marxist Christians ,Jews and Hindis ,just like you have appeasers of all three faiths of Islam ,that does not mean the core teaching of these faiths is Marxist or that they must appease Islam as a matter of their faiths. The millions of Indians that die when Islam marched that way threw their country between a thousand to three hundred years ago has nothing to do with Christians or Jews . You can make fun of Christians, slander them ,debate them on their faith they will not put a death sentence on you for that. I know of no Jewish terrorist attacks on Hindis anywhere in history if you can name one please post it.

        • Sharyati says

          Sep 6, 2018 at 10:23 pm

          What do you think WPM that Christians don’t have a caste system? Laughable!!! You know pentacosts don’t marry Catholics, Latin Catholics don’t marry Roman ones, none o them want to be buried in each other cemeteries? In the US alone there are 100s of denominations that consider the others infidels and many aren’t even on talking nby terms. In India among the supposedly “caste less” Christians, protestants don’t marry Catholics never eat at their houses and marry with each other. So please don’t give me all this gobbledygook.

          Sharyati,

          You are plain evil. The Vendanta group is known all over the world for its evil doings.
          The pollution from the Sterlite factories were killing thousands of people in the form of genetic defects of new-born babies. Would you take your family near that factory to live?
          I have found that whenever you post in this forum, you trot out plain lies. I am an Indian Christian living in South India, so you cannot fool people like me, as we know all the facts.

          Is it just Christians who protested against the factory? How stupid and evil are you! The protest was by everyone living nearby, including Hindus and Muslims. It just happened that the area had a large number of Christians and you make it out as if it was a protest by Christians alone.
          You support a criminal company just because it is named Vedanda? How childish can one get.

        • Sharyati says

          Joseph Mathew, just read this https://swarajyamag.com/politics/anti-sterlite-protests-who-is-behind-the-tuticorin-turmoil

          Not only Sterlite, but what about the Kudankulam nuclear power plant protests? This was also lead by Christian group(One Uday Kumar), now we have the Church interfering in this
          https://www.firstpost.com/politics/church-role-in-kudankulam-protests-merits-wider-probe-228719.html.

          And you think i support the factory because it is owned by Vedanta group?? And Vedanta is a Hindu philosophy?? What a humorous bloke you are!! And how Childish of you to think that it was because of a name i support this??

          I know all this because of i have seen how these evangelicals operate down south and what they did during the tsunami. They basically want no development to happen and want to keep people poorer so that can live on doles. My own domestic helps husband was beaten by those thugs when he left the Church for a well paying job in a construction company. We had to intervene and call in the police on the request of our domestic help. So i know the unholy nexus of and i am neither evil like your evangelical organizations and stupid as the people you hoodwink. And by the way i helped a lot of people including Christians during the tsunami. I did not ask them to sign a confession of faith in Jesus like the missionaries did and i am evil? You funny bloke!!!

What is your day job telemarketing from some shack in a India slum under the under the work name of “Steven”. What is a” Latin Catholic” ,are they fighting the “grey pants Protestants ” in the streets of Boston today??Do you want to fix my computer problem or sell me some solar energy plan today??I feel sorry your country created a Moslem hell hole next door in 1948,but it was Moslem Indian Leaders and Hindi Indian Leaders, Moslem appeasers all that created that problem not the Christians or former “Western Rulers of India” the Moslems were killing Hindus by the millions 500 years before any Western Christians try to settle in your country in the 10 and 11 century.

          There is some truth in Sharyati’s claim of historical divisions between Christians, but these have rarely been insurmountable, and few apply today. It is a shame that the partition of India did not provide a more enduring solution to Islamic aggression, but you are right, WPM, none of this can be blamed on Christians.

        • Sharyati says

          Sep 7, 2018 at 3:07 pm

          WPM you are clown. I have a masters in computers and Physical chemistry from a reputed science and technology university in India and I work as a research fellow in a reputed research lab. I do not need to sell anything to anybody, much under a false name I am wealthy, pay advance income tax and have 3 houses and support many causes and have taken part in redeeming hindu temples land encroached by Christians(For example see https://www.hindupost.in/society-culture/13167/) . I do not live in a shack in a slum as you say. Anyway thanks for the entertaining funny remarks. All you are doing is blabbing after seeing slum dog millionaire which is not a true representation of the country.

          Your remarks show how ignorant you are of your faith. I have seen this for myself. I am not naive to claim that in the US catholics and protestants are throwing petrol bombs at each other. I have visited the US and have been there for close to 2 years mainly around Dallas in Texas. I know first hand that the protestants in the state of Texas consider catholics. Yes many denomination do not intermarry with each other. Also do not tell me that a Presbyterian would want to be buried in a Roman catholic cemetery. These differences are too palpable even in India. I have seen different missionaries calling the other denominations as liars and perverting the bible. This i do when a missionary comes to me. For example when a Jehovah’s witness comes to me, i say that last week I meet a catholic father who said something opposite to what he says. Now the fun starts!!!So i have had it from the “Lions mouths”. I never blame Christians for the Islamic hellhole next door. But unfortunately you guys in the West do not know what Christian missionaries are up to here. See

          https://postcard.news/christian-groups-forcefully-try-occupy-famous-shiva-temples-kalaiyar-koil-sivagangai-madurai-massive-tension-erupts/

          There is too much more. Christians construct graves next to temples https://twitter.com/ReclaimTemples?lang=en

          You in the West think it is all about love and showing the other cheek? No it is not. I do not care for what god anybody worships. But Xtian missionaries here call us all sorts of names. When Christmas comes we wish them. But when ours come they debase our ways of worship and our gods. And now enough is enough and it will be soon pay back time. Without a proper understanding of what is going on in here please do not talk. Did you come here and see for yourself? I can say all i have said with confidence because i have seen how the bible belt in the US is compared to say California. Many a time i was called in Texas state by Evangelical Christians as “Devil Worshipper”

          And again i do not blame Xtians for Islamic Jihad or partition. But do not forget the Portuguese Catholics conducted their inquisitions and wiped out the Hindu population in Goa through draconian laws.

      This is because the majority of foreign workers to the Middle East come from Kerala.
      One can see them embarking the flights from the Middle East and disembarking in Cochin Airport withering Korans in one hand and in full Islamic dress with beards.
      Even the ones ho are originally Hindus when they go out to work in Arab lands return converted

      It is tragic.

    You have missed the actual story. The arrested ISIS link terrorists were plotting to kill several Hindu outfits’ leaders, not only of Hindu Makkal Katchi. They were also targeting the leaders of Hindu Munnani and Hindu Shakti Sena leaders also.

    To the person who says there have no attacks on Dharmic institutions in the west, you are factually wrong: there have been fatal attacks upon Mandir and Gurdwara in western countries- Sikh panth is part and parcel of Dharmic community. Our precious Dharmic Peoples have been murdered by mlecches. World belongs to Mahapurakh not to any particular nationality or religion. We are in the space age – attacks upon Dharmics are intolerable – India is sone di chidi – warning to mlecch kaljug avadi: mess with us at your own peril. Merely stretching alone is not yoga or dharma – “hum hindu hai garbh tai” – sacred wedlock creates a Hindu. Hindu includes Sikh, Jain, Vedantic, Buddhist, Zarathustra.
    I’m getting fed up with ignorant ( and violent for NO REASON) mlecch avadi. Can’t wait ’til India develops superior arms. The one life to live crowd has almost ruined the world.
    Akhand Aryavarta seeds planted long ago – Aryavartan Imperium will deal with miscreants in humane manner. Schools for fools who cannot understand sublime philosophy of “live and let live”.
    Flouride and mcdonalds have created subhuman creatures. Nothing that Ruhani Eugenics cannot fix.
    Ultimate wealth is GYAN. India is repository and origin of ALL GYAN.
