Editorial : The necessity of Ghazwa-e-Islam !

During the Jewish religious festival of Hanukkah in Sydney, they were attacked by Jihadi terrorists.

Jihadi terrorists attacked Jews in Sydney during Jews’ religious festival of Hanukkah. Even Australia, which is geographically far from the rest of the world, has finally witnessed a Jihadi attack. Until yesterday, India was the victim of such attacks. Today, Europe and other countries have begun to bear the brunt of this terrorism. One is compelled to say that those very countries which, until yesterday, offered India gratuitous advice on Jihadi terrorism need not expect Indians to express sorrow now that they are being ground in the same mill. The only sorrow here is that the victims in Australia are Jews. India has close and cordial relations with the Jews and with their Nation, Israel. Therefore, Hindus and India stand with them in their grief.

After Hamas attacked Israel in October 2023, Israel gave a strong reply and continues to do so even today. Although over 70,000 people have been killed in the Gaza strip, there has been no impact whatsoever on the Jihadi mindset. Hamas has not surrendered. Fanatical Muslims from across the world have come forward to support them, including fanatics in India. The father-son duo behind the attack in Australia are Muslims. Police killed 50-year-old Sajid Akram, while his son Naveed Akram was injured. Although the motive behind the attack by these Jihadis is not yet clear, there is no doubt that hatred towards Jews and Israel is the reason for the attack.

Due to this incident, France has announced the cancellation of public events during the Christmas season. Considering how far-reaching the terror caused by an attack carried out by two people has been, it once again becomes clear that a handful of Jihadis are holding the entire world hostage. Yet, no country (including India) openly says that they are Jihadis and a threat to the world; the mindset that produces Jihadis is dangerous for the world and must be destroyed. Countries merely kill terrorists, ban their organisations, and consider the matter closed. This has a limited effect only. The problem is not eradicated from its roots, as is evident from examples in the Gulf and Middle-East countries. Although the USA eliminated the Islamic State from Syria, it has not been completely wiped out. Israel has launched massive attacks on Hamas; yet, it has not been eliminated. The USA attempted to destroy Al-Qaeda and the Taliban in Afghanistan; yet, they survived and resurged. India, too, is doing nothing different. Terrorist attacks continue even today in Kashmir.

The crux of the matter is – While it is necessary to strike at the very process of the creation of terrorists, no one today dares to even utter two words on the issue of why terrorists are created. The sole exception is China. It has demonstrated this through direct action and therefore, there is no threat of Jihadi terrorism in China. Not a single Jihadi attack has taken place there. China has emerged as a global superpower in economic and strategic spheres. While other countries study China for this reason, no one studies how China has crushed the Jihadi mindset, nor does anyone attempt to act accordingly. It is noteworthy that despite all this, the so-called 57 Islamic countries cannot utter a single word against China.

Destroying adharma with adharma is also Dharma !

Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu has expressed intense anger over the Sydney attack. He has held Australia’s policies responsible for it. He alleged that Australia supported the formation of an independent Palestinian state a few months ago and did not take any stringent steps against attacks on Jews in Australia. This shows that in the name of so-called secularism, humanity, and multiculturalism, the USA, Europe, and now Australia are committing collective suicide.

Human rights should exist only for humans; those who murder humans and commit brutal atrocities are not humans but demons, and hence, cannot have human rights. The world now needs to understand this.

In India, too, not only people but even political parties have such a mindset. Even if driven by political self-interests, this amounts to betrayal of the Nation, and this must now be stated clearly. In Europe, discontent has arisen due to fanatic Muslim refugees. If this problem is not crushed, it will inevitably engulf Europe within the next few years. This is the stark reality. Nothing different has happened in Australia. Pakistanis were able to live there fearlessly, collect weapons, and carry out attacks. Why did this happen ? Taking this into account, it is now essential to stand firmly against the Jihadi mindset. For this, action on the lines of China becomes necessary.

Islamic aggressors have been dreaming for 1,000 years of waging ‘Ghazwa-e-Hind’ (a war to Islamise India) so as to turn India into an Islamic country. Earlier, attempts were made through the sword; now, attempts are being made through increase in population. Against this, not only India but the entire world must wage ‘Ghazwa-e-Islam’ (a war against Islamisation). Only through this can Jihadi terrorism be eliminated; else, killing terrorists alone will not eradicate Jihadi terrorism. China has destroyed this mindset. Even if it is said that harsh and inhuman measures were adopted, China is benefiting from them.

Indian Texts such as the Ramayan and the Mahabharat say that if those who abide by Dharma have to be punished, it should be done according to Dharma; however, the adharmis (the unrighteous who do not abide by Dharma) should not be dealt according to Dharma, they should be dealt with in the same manner they acted, meaning, they should be destroyed through adharma itself. They have no right to demand justice according to Dharma. No matter how much they attempt to seek justice according to Dharma, in the end it is suicidal. What Bhagawan Shrikrushna instructed Arjun to do with Karna must be remembered. If Karna had been spared when his chariot was stuck in the mud, due to the rule of sparing an unarmed warrior according to Dharma, he would later have killed Arjun. If Prabhu Shriram had not slain Vali, the rescue of Mother Sita and the destruction of Ravan would not have been possible. Therefore, taking inspiration from these ideals, the entire world must unite and make determined efforts to destroy the Jihadi mindset; otherwise, like Bhasmasur, this mindset will annihilate everything.

To eliminate Jihadi terrorism, the world must now begin to destroy the Jihadi mindset – this alone is the need of the hour !
