Indian Inquisition

No sooner were the words off of my keyboard than....

"Rape Ruled Out in Case of 2 Indian Girls" by GARDINER HARRIS, NOV. 27, 2014

NEW DELHI — When the bodies of two teenage cousins were found hanging from a mango tree in the northern state of Uttar Pradesh in May, the police initially said the girls had been abducted and raped, in what seemed like yet another grisly crime against women in India.

But the country’s top investigative agency announced this week that the girls, whose bodies were surrounded by a crush of TV reporters while they were still hanging from the tree, had killed themselves and that no rape or abduction was suspected.

********

The findings put a strange coda on a case that became a symbol of what many claimed was the precarious safety of women in India.

Once again, like in Nigeria and whenever we need to make war on someone, women are waved around to advance the agenda. 

But wait, the worst is yet to come.

Along with the case of a medical student who was gang-raped and tortured on a New Delhi bus in December 2012, the grisly deaths of the Budaun girls, so called after the district where they lived, is seen as representing all that was wrong with India’s patriarchal culture. As recently as Tuesday, Ban Ki-moon, the United Nations secretary general, cited the Budaun case at an event celebrating an international day to end violence against women.

Yeah, never mind the bride burnings or incredible poverty of India. Let's go in there and self-adulate a celebration(?). 

I'm not saying things are perfect in India, far from it. It would break Gandhi's heart to see it now; however, what we are seeing here is nothing but agenda-pushing propaganda. 

Now lets move on to the bombs and missiles dropped on them by the EUSraeli Empire, U.N.

As awareness of the case grew, the news media in this nation of 1.2 billion began reporting rapes almost daily, giving India an image of a place deeply antagonistic to women. Tourism suffered. Parliament passed a tough law to crack down on sexual violence.

We get loads of stories about icky Islamic terrorists and ISIS over here.

But many sociologists here have questioned whether India was experiencing a true epidemic of rapes or if it was simply going through a media-created frenzy. Surveys around the world have shown that Indian women actually experience comparatively low levels of sexual violence.

NOOOOOO!!

"Here’s a lovely expose on something or other. What is it? Is it an animal, vegetable or mineral? This kind of thing is all part of the war against everybody, being waged by Politically Correct Lego Monsters from The Black Lagoon. It stands to reason if there is a monster double feature playing on The Truman Show screens hanging everywhere around you and also inside your mind that this is the logical outcome of so many of the rest of the things being mentioned here except that this happened before they did?

--MORE--"

Since when are false accusations considered some sort of empowerment and something good? What an absolutely warped mentality. 

Speaking of those:

"Up to 13,000 people in Britain are victims of trafficking, sexual exploitation, or other forms of modern slavery, a government report said Saturday, putting the figure at four times the previous estimate. The Home Office figures included women and girls forced into prostitution or sexually exploited for profit, domestic servants working for little or no pay, and laborers forced to work in farms, factories, and fishing boats. Officials said the scale of the problem is difficult to pin down because victims are controlled and fear reporting to police (AP)."

It's an immigration i$$ue that benefit certain intere$ts, and now I have a new take on the obsessive focus of the government and media these days.

They want to control your sexuality while letting their own perversions run rampant, something ascribed to the Nazis in my Zionist Jew prism called media.

The reasons are complex. 

But self-serving distortion to push an agenda is not.

For one, Indian women, particularly in the more conservative north of the country, are often severely restricted in their movements.

Must be where the Muslims are.

In a survey, most married women reported being unable to visit a nearby village or neighborhood unaccompanied.

The relatively low levels of sexual violence do not mean that India is an entirely safe place for women. Using techniques pioneered by Amartya Sen, a Nobel-winning economist, an American and Canadian research team estimated that there are tens of millions of “missing women,” as Mr. Sen called them, in developing countries. These are women who would be alive if they died at the same rates relative to men as women do in more developed countries. In a separate paper, the researchers concluded that in any given year, the number of missing women in India is more than two million.

How can you trust that study, really? 

IF? 

The lost Girls of India? 

What IF the government had not engaged in sterilizations? 

How many more missing girls?

Much of the reason is that families invest far more in caring for boys than they do for girls. Approximately two-thirds of infants in neonatal intensive care units, for instance, are boys. Tens of thousands of women are killed annually in disputes related to marriages and dowries, researchers estimate.

Bride burnings, and why does that remain unmentioned? Here they are worrying about women who never existed when.... aaaaah! Why bother trying to figure out the point of this agenda-pushing propaganda?

But overall, India has fairly low levels of violence, and that is true for women as well.

Just ignore the tens of thousands burned to death.

Indian husbands beat their wives far less than men in many other developing countries, according to comparable surveys done in multiple countries. Domestic violence levels are far higher in Colombia, Egypt, Peru and Zambia than in India, the surveys found.

So this is what, a public image repair job?

In the Budaun case, forensic reports confirmed that the girls had not been raped. And the police said that a key early witness in the case, Nazru, a man with one name who was distantly related to the girls, lied when he told the police that he had seen a suspect drag the two girls away. That suspect, along with four others arrested in the case, has since been released.

Still, the news media’s attention to the issue of rape has had salutary effects, Ravinder Kaur, a professor of sociology at the Indian Institute of Technology in Delhi, said on Thursday.

I interrupt this blog post to refer you to the slight break for Britain and all it's links earlier.

The number of rapes reported to the police in recent years has surged, suggesting that increased attention to the crime may be encouraging more women to seek charges against their abusers rather than suffer in silence, she said.

And if they are false charges, well, no harm done!

“Whether there’s a real increase in rapes recently is impossible to tell at the moment,” Dr. Kaur said. “And the Budaun case should give us all pause. People made a lot of assumptions about those girls, and now we know almost every one of those assumptions were not true.”

That didn't make my printed Globe, just as the entire article didn't make the web.

"Video of women fighting off harassers shocks India" Associated Press  December 02, 2014

NEW DELHI — A video showing two sisters in northern India hitting back at men who allegedly harassed them on a crowded bus has drawn huge attention in a country where hundreds of thousands of women silently endure sexual harassment daily.

You know, after all the staged videos, shell-game censorship, contradictions, and agenda-pushing, I don't believe it. Maybe it is all real; however, seeing as it is being cited by my propaganda pre$$ I can only conclude it is a staged and scripted, agenda-advancing operation for whatever reason.

The video, filmed by a passenger and aired on television channels Monday, shows the two young women hitting, punching, and beating their harassers with a belt, as other passengers silently look on.

The women, identified only by their first names, Arati and Pooja, said they lashed out at the men after enduring lewd comments and pawing from them.

‘‘One of the boys started touching my sister and making kissing gestures,’’ Arati told reporters. ‘‘I told him to go away or I would teach him a lesson. Then he called another boy, saying that we have to beat up two girls. And then the other boy got on the bus.’’

The sisters said that no one on the bus tried to help them. Instead, other passengers told them to not provoke the men, because they might later attack them or throw acid on them.

Yeah, okay. It's at this point I'm thinking this is made up.

Press Trust of India reported that the video was shot Friday as the sisters were on their way to college.

And who could ever question video cited by the ma$$ media?

By Sunday, police in the state of Haryana had arrested three men and were investigating the incident.

Haryana’s chief minister lauded the bravery of the two women and said they would be honored during India’s Republic Day celebration in January.

Hmmmmm! 

It's turned into a government promotion, huh? 

What a PSYOP STINK!

The video drew a massive response on social media, with many applauding the sisters’ bravery and criticizing passengers for not coming to their aid.

What didn't draw as much a response from my Globe:

"A volunteer pins a red ribbon on the blouse of a sex worker, as her child looks on, during an event to mark World AIDS Day in Kamathipura, Mumbai's red light district. The event was organised by the Social Activities Integration, a non-profit organisation which provides free condoms and medical care to people living with HIV and AIDS."

That photo was above the printed piece in my December 2 printed Globe.
