  1. The standard practise of how all rulers rule be it of Nations or Empires is by
    1) Genocides
    2) Rapes

    The 1980-90 Indian regime conspired with the Empire to carry out the Genocide-3 in the name of Nationalism .
    Indian state is a vassal state administered by the Empire through a constitution and a empire friendly regime.

  2. How was the Mughal Empire defeated – Guru Gobind Singh Ji and Khalsa – you RSS Hindus quickly forget this – you would all have been muslims now if it was not for the creation of Khalsa.
    How was the British Empire defeated – you again quite conveniently forget – Sikhs gave 85% plus qurbani but these hindu dogs and RSS dogs doing now hiding behind closed doors. We will not forget 1984 you will be reminded all the time that is why you always jumping up and down. Let see how you will feel when your family gets brutally murdered and raped before you eyes – come back than and tell us how you feel……
    You are so disgusting horrible troll!!!

  3. What has any body else been able to do about genocide-3.
    The arrogant behaviour of all Empires have to be just dealt with this saying.

    ” This to shall pass”

    Genocide -3 is behind us as we charter new course in this infinite universe. we inhabit.

    • What has anybody else been able to do? The Sikhs have kept up the pressure for 32 years when the Indian polity, police and judiciary have all closed their eyes and put their hands to their ears. Our persistence nags and pricks at your conscience as we demand justice and refuse to be silenced over it. Why else do you keep crying, oh Sikhs please forget 1984! You do so because we insist on reminding you and bearing witness to the crimes against humanity you committed then and are now even compounding with your denial and apologist amnesia. No Empire committed these foul deeds but just Indians in the name and full sanction of the Indian state. Sikhs all over the world have kept the memory of what you did alive such that those culprits you allow to roam free find it difficult to travel abroad where NRI Sikhs get resolutions passed recognising the anti Sikh pogrom – NOT DELHI RIOTS – as act of genocide against the SIkhs. Just last week the Lathrop City Council in USA passed resolution recognising this crime against humanity thanks to Sikhs. We will not forget what you did and more pertinently we will not let you forget RSS Harinder / Harish Sharma what you did as you bless the murderers and rapists of Sikhs as we will act as your conscience to stop you repeating such human rights abuses again in the name of Bharat

  4. This Harinder or Harsh Sharma is definately a Brahmin RSS dog. How can people like myself forgive the murders of my family in Delhi ? I want the death penalty for these people and i want to pull the rope.

    • Sikhs are victims of a conspiracy of regime of 1980-90 India and the Empire to bring them on there knees.
      Sikhs have been on the hit list of various central rulers from

      1) Mughal Empire who did 2 genocides.
      2) British Empire the Jallianwala Bach massacre
      3) Regime of 1980-90 who did the 3 rd genocide.

      • Sikhs are being arbitrally arrested today in 2016. These abuses of due process, discrimination (Sikhs denied access to public examination Harayana) and extra judicial behaviour are not things of the past but have become acceptable behaviour against Sikhs of the present. Address those as the past informs the present.

    • No one can touch the Empires men.
      Be care full of them.

      1) Individuals who rebel are vaporized
      2) Groups who rebel undergo controlled genocides
      3) Nations which rebel are dismantled or bombed into stone age or siliconized or made into vassal state

      • You are just making your crimes greater by defending the genociders and even trying to blame others for their crimes. Indians committed these foul deed in the name of India and were and continue to be protected by Indians – you included RSS Harinder / Harish Sjarma – till this day. A drunkard cannot hope to cure his alcoholism until he admits to himself he has a drinking problem instead of always blaming the barman for serving him. As for no one touches Empire’s Men? Really? The Sikhs defeated the Empires men both of the Moghul Empire and the Britisher’s Empire and we can certainly defeat your phantom empire also.

      • No Empire can be ever defeated by its very definition.
        Old Empires just fade away and give way to new Empires.

      • ‘No Empire can be ever defeated by its very definition.’ This is the precise message of slavery you forefathers gave each other as their daughters were being carried away on the backs of Afghan horses. The Khalsa got a different message form Guru Gobind Singh Ji and intercepted those same riders and retrieved your honour.

  5. Stop all these artificial created problems.
    Just reunite Punjab ,Haryana and Himachal Pradesh and get going in life.
    We are all one people
    INDIAN

    • How is it an artificially created problem when the canals are artificial? We have riparian international law and the constitution which confirm the river water belongs to Punjab (land of five rivers). You talk of commission mad eup of other states including the ones who stand to benefit form continuing to loot Punjab’s water only because you know that those other states are not Sikh and therefore will ‘vote’ with their Hindu CMs – effectively instead of Punjab being raped by one or two or three states you want Punjab to be gang-raped by all of them. You only talk of ‘reunification’ because you see that as an easy way of bypassing the rights of Punjabis (and lets face it this means majority Sikh population as Hindu Punjabis already disregarded their homeland in 1966 referendum to form their own state of Haryana) by swamping them with voters from outside of Punjab. The right thing to do is build canals and desalination plants from the coast to these non riparian states – this will provide tangible employment and infrastructure investment. Whist these are under construction Punjab can SELL – NOT BE LOOTED FOR FREE – some of its water to help out its neighbours. Haryana can start to pay the price by re-ceding Chandigarh back to Punjab for a start (why is it Punjab had to share its capitol city when no other states do?) as well as the village of Hondh-Chillar, District Rewari, Haryana, where Sikhs were ethically cleansed in 1984 to remind Haryana of the unpaid debt it owes Sikhs. I don;t suppose there is any point talking of about teh absues that have continued since 1984 with the likes of you as you have proven your anti-Sikh prejudice with your posting on December 9, 2016 to a story called ‘Captain Amarinder Singh Dubs Moga rally as ‘Badal Bachao Rally’ (https://www.sikh24.com/2016/12/09/captain-amarinder-singh-dubs-moga-rally-as-badal-bachao-rally/#.WEviRLKLTX4) where you wrote Harinder December 10, 2016 at 7:02 am: ‘Sikhs have moved on from the Genocide -3. God bless all those who did the Genocide.’ There you have your true agenda – you hate the Sikhs and support their mass murder so how can grand theft of their very water hold any problem for you.

      • Revenge and hate are not good emotions.They take away you away from primary goal of life.
        Genocides are wrong and must not happen to any one .
        The genocider must undergo punishment under process of law and not on basis of hate.
        How ever God needs to forgive and bless even an ghallugharist or a genocider.

      • Again you simply add insult to injury by presenting the Sikh demand for justice as hate and revenge?! And how you can even talk of ‘hate and revenge are not good emotions’ when you justify the murder of a Dalit for transporting a cow? The genocider does not fear the law in India because it is designed to protect him if he has murdered Sikhs. Indian law has had 32 YEARS to convict and punish genociders and just this week a Session Court in Ropar on December 3 acquitted an Ex-DGP and 3 other Punjab Police in a case related to a fake encounter (ex-judicial killing) of Sikh youth Kuldeep Singh in 1991. Law is literally not worth the paper it is written on in this country if it fails to deliver justice. By the way which of your ‘God’ you want to bless genociders? Is it the flying talking monkey king one or the elephant headed one or the one with six arms or the one with a dozen heads or the one that mates with humans? You keep your lip-service compassion for the genocider culprits and the facilitators, apologists and deniers of genocide as you are a supporter of Hinduvta taliban. I will keep my compassion for their victims of crimes against humanity because I am a Sikh and a human being who sees no difference between one man and another.

      • Giver of life is always stronger than takers of life.
        We need to bring justice to the victims of genocides.
        Till then we need to Resurrect our selves and get going on with our voyage and exploration of our Universes.
        The Genociders will fade away where as Sikhs will flourish all over the infinite Universe from planets to Galaxies to Parallel Universes.
        The genocide cannot take away our love for life and exploration and voyages.

      • The genociders of Sikhs never fade away as Sikhs never forget their crimes as you wish us to. WE still remember Nadir Shah, Ahmad Shah Abdali, Zaman Shah, General Dyer after centuries so how do you think we will forget the crimes of Indira Gandhi, Rajiv Gandhi, Kamal Nath, Jagdish Tytler, kamal Nath, Gen Brar, Sumedh Saini, K.S. Gill, Gurmeet Pinky et al. You have plainly if foolishly declared your love for the genociders so don’t try to weasle your back with talk now of oh, yes the victims of genocide should get justice. You don’t believe that and don’t actually want it either preferring that Sikhs just forget about it. And what is it that you want us to have amnesia over? SInce you have given me the opportunity again of shaming you: the brutal killing, looting and raping of Sikhs during the “November 1984 Sikh Genocide” took place in Delhi, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana, Uttarakhand, Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal, Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan, Orissa, Jammu & Kashmir, Chattisgarh, Tripura, Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, Andhra Pradesh, Kerala and Maharashtra. As per official records over 3000 Sikhs were killed but the fact is, over 30,000 were killed (mostly burnt alive) throughout India and over 2,00,000 were displaced. Hundreds of Sikh women gang raped throughout India by goons, police officers and civil administrators and told that next generation (after rape) will be loyal to Government. Hundreds of Gurdwaras and thousands of Guru Granth Sahibs were burnt and desecrated. Around 300 Sikh soldiers done to death in uniform by fellow soldiers. 120 Sikhs working at the Bokaro Steel Plant Jharkhand thrown alive into burning furnaces. Children as old as 13 days of age roasted alive on gas stoves in Kanpur and other cities in India. In Agartala, Tripura 40 Sikh families who took refuge in a police station to save their lives were burnt alive in the police station. In Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh 12 Sikhs were hanged from the ceiling at the railway platform. Small children killed ruthlessly by pulling their legs apart whilst their mothers being raped. In Haryana and Madhya Pradesh Sikh women taken into hostage and raped during November 1984, still held in captivity by the goons. Sikh women taken from refugee camps and raped even after November 6, 1984. Sikhs on public roads burnt alive, dragged out from trains and lynched on the railway platforms and set on fire Property of Sikhs worth millions was looted and destroyed. Massacre of Sikhs planned in a meeting organized at 24 Akbar Road, New Delhi on October 31, 1984 attended by members of Parliament and senior members of the Congress party including Jagdish Tytler, Sajjan Kumar, Kamal Nath, Dharam Das Shastri, Vasant Sathe, HKL Bhagat, Lalit Makhen, Arjun Das amongst others. State media showed inflammatory speeches and scenes with slogans “Khoon ka badla khoon” (blood for blood) and “Khoon ke chintey sikhon ke ghar tak pahunchni chahiye” (Splashes of blood should reach the doorsteps of Sikhs). Police commandos from Police headquarters Madhuban, Haryana on the orders of Bhajan Lal, the then Chief Minister of Haryana send to commit the massacre of Sikhs. Expert arsonists and professional goons brought from outside and transported to different areas in Government buses supplied with inflammable materials to burn Sikhs, Sikh houses, businesses and Sikh temples. Police either actively participated in committing the massacre of Sikhs or stood as silent spectators while Sikhs burnt alive. Police even supplied diesel from police jeeps to the arsonists. Police disarmed the Sikhs before mobs attacked them. No curfew imposed or army called while most of the killings took place. When army called, deliberately designed to be ineffective. We know these facts not just form the witness testimony of Sikh victims despite media blackout and massive intimidation but because of SIKh NRIs, outside charities, NGOs and even the leaked cables form the US embassy and from the cabinet papers of Downing Street. After 32 years the organizers and perpetrators of the Genocide roam free and even enjoy positions of power – the Congress Party showing no shame let alone remorse even tried to appoint Kamal Nath as their chief officer in Punjab, homeland and heartland of the Sikhs. None punished for killings of the Sikhs. Ten commissions have failed to bring Justice. Affidavits filed before commissions found lying at the residences of those accused of organizing and committing the massacre. The Public did not react with mix of sponsored and spontaneous anger – they were proactively instigated by the State (led by Indira Gandhi’s son intent upon vengeance – what other democracy in the world would appoint the child of a assassinated leader to head the police and army?!) to commit murder against Sikhs and think afterwards (as you do) that it was okay. What was done to the Sikhs was not okay then and it is not okay now and will not forget what people like you RSS Harinder / Harish Sharma did and are continuing to do with your denial, apologist, justification and outright approval for the genociders.

      • The Genocide is wrong and justice should be done to the victims.

        How ever revenge and hate is not OK..

        Let the law and God defend the victims.

        All our Genociders have faded away .

        Where as we have flourished all over the Globe .

      • Just as you seem incapable of distinguishing between right and wrong, good and evil, you seem incapable of seeing the difference between revenge / hate and Siksh insisting upon justice. The law has proven over 32 YEARS that it will not defend the victims so little point you keep raising that when you know perfectly well it is a blind alley used only to herd Sikhs into to keep them out of sight from raising the genocide in public. You know full well that SIkh victims and those criminals who have committed crimes against humanity against them will both die of old age before the law lifts a finger to dispense justice and you just want Sikh victims to endure more anguish. Your sympathy is with the culprits so stop trying to row back as it just comes across as lip service in order to worm your way back into respectability on this website. We know you where you truly stand and its is not alongside the Sikhs or humanity.
