So here goes : 1) S : Shariat : Thats what they stand for. A version that a lot of Muslims the world over say is uncalled for and extremist. 2) W: War: What they have to wage to get their way. No one wants to "subscribe" to them or their ideologies, hence its imposed. 3) A: Attack: What they want to do to India, and any country that doesn't recognize Islam, its Gods, its Prophets, and its Beliefs. 4) T : Terror : That feeling, leading to helplessness and frustration, they strike with their call for stringent social behaviour Now, I really can’t resist doing a pure SWAT definition for the Taliban.

The first would be a group that invaded India.": http://indianmuslims.in/countering-pakistani-terrorists-anti-india-propaganda/ Human rights, I dont have anything specific to link to, but I am pretty sure if I went on record saying something against islam/prophet, my "suitable punishment" would be death, according to quaran. Sure there are plenty of stuff in the book that people are not following today, but then taliban was not there 20 years ago. The trend is increasingly "purer" islam, more talibanization, demand for more shariat law, etc. Most muslims today would oppose such an interpretation, but we have seen how successful they are when faced with taliban like factions who only demand is that their prophets word be taken more seriously. What muslim can say no to that? @sanjeey I am prone to typos, but this was not one of those cases :-)

I do not know if they are one and the same, but officially, they are just guys with guns who want extreme muslim law. while the morality of this can be debated, its not something which warrants hysteria, unless they start disrespecting international borders. or, if the taleban and al quaeda are one and the same.

Lets ask the Pink Chaddi buggers to come up with creative gifting ideas for them. Amit : I take note of just one line here, that says "Human rights, democracy, concept of India are fundamentally against islam." I don't think that is so. The reverse is probably true. And maybe that's what you intended to say, I guess. Lolz @Satish :) They do really need these things. Lets ask the Pink Chaddi buggers to come up with creative gifting ideas for them.

Human rights, democracy, concept of India are fundamentally against islam. I am pretty sure anything not written in quaran is eventually against quaran. Christians have learned to say Bible can have flaws and is only a guideline, i am not sure if muslims can take such a stand for their book. Our hope? Alternate source of energy in the long run, and stronger law enforcement in short. I would not be surprised if there are few pockets of muslim dominated small town/rural area that openly demands shariat law in india some day, and forms taliban like organization to fight govt when government "suppresses their religious rights". Thats how it will start. Muslim opposing taliban is ludicrous concept as muslim opposing quaran, as shariat law is all taliban stands for, and no muslim can say shariat laws are bad.
