Suzanna Arundhati Roy On Pakistan, Taliban, Indian elite, Mumbai 26/11, Hindu Talibanisation, Kashmir, Chattisgarh and much more: BBC Urdu [audio] [via Outlook India blog]Excerpts (transcript by The Outlook):
Pakistan is more vulnerable because it is smaller. If a drone attack kills one Al-Qaeda member, it kills 45 common people. Suppose this were to happen in India and we, who always oppose the Bajrang Dal or the VHP... now suppose America were to come here and start bombing them, the whole equation would change, wouldn't it? We will surely not keep quiet. [Well, we are not too sure about this. Is this the goal? Getting US drones to attack Hindus?]
Everyone blames the Taliban, but no one even talks about America. Because the corporate media is close to, and celebrates, America. But I don't think there is much difference [from the state of Pakistan] in the rest of the country...For example, if you go to Dantewara [in Chhatisgarh]. There are daily attacks. Daily people die.[Seamless transition from Taliban to America to Chhatisgarh. ]
Of course, hindu talibanisation is going on. So many people talk about Mumbai [26/11] attacks but no one wants to discuss their cause. Despite many people saying that Lashkar did it. If Lashkar did it, is there no connection between Lashkar and Kashmir or what? But you can't even say the word 'Kashmir'. [Well, she just did.]
Do more Indians hate her or love her?
maine koii poll nahii kiyaa, par mujhe lagtaa hai roughly ke kaafii saare jo elite haiN bahut unko taqliif hotii hai... [Roughly translates as: Well, I did not conduct any opinion poll, but I think, roughly speaking, there are a lot of elites, who feel discomfiture]

She looks like a witch from some scary movie in that picture. Well not much difference between the word witch and what she really is.. a Aah..aah..bitch...chhhoo. Either way she s**ks and is a grave threat to Bharatiya national security.
