Being unaware of the organ transplant process in India I had posted a query yesterday about how Arun Jaitley (and Swaraj) got a donor so fast. Here is a facebook post by a person who has been waiting for a donor for years. Read and think for yourself.

@Retired__hurt @cricketpakcompk They are not even complaining, but here you are on your rant. And the culture of India very much includes beef eating in many places - so what culture are you talking about?

@divyaarorafd हम तो इसे उर्दू कहते है। वही भाषा जो भगत सिंह इस्तेमाल करते थे। वही भाषा जिसका इस्तेमाल गुलज़ार साब अपने कविताएँ लिखने के लिए करते हैं। ये “मदरसे वाली भाषा” क्या है ये तो हमें पता नहीं। @Vakeel_Sb

Hindu bigot shows horrible prejudice against @Airtel_Presence by refusing to engage with a Muslim rep. And Airtel meekly responds by changing the rep to a Hindu one. Un-freaking-believable!

Because no one takes out processions deliberately through certain expressly to incite violence on Eid by dancing in front of Mosques playing loud music, and hurling abuse. So yes, there is a far greater need for asking for peace in Ram Navami in New India.

So apparently, the Abdullahs are "jihadis' now. Basically all you need to do to be called a "jihadi" is have a Muslim name in today's India.

@madhukishwar @iJasOberoi When people like you claim to represent Hinduism, it's very easy to see why adherents are leaving in droves for other religions, or atheism. You are a disgrace to all women and humanity at large.

@Ravisutanjani Have been hearing this bit of illogic since childhood. In every generation. There was a time when Sunil Gavaskar was considered irreplaceable. And a time when Sachin was. A time when Indira was too. As Charles DeGaulle said - “The graveyard is full of irreplaceable people.”

I have rarely seen a weaker and more ridiculous case made against someone than this Zubair case. It's transparently so stupid and malicious, that the only reason it's there is that the govt wants to tell people - "Look, we can screw you up for paper thin reasons. Beware!"
