[lbo-talk] Low Life (was "Come friendly bombers" )

[Steven Gotzler]

I live within two blocks of the mosque that many of the WTC bombers attended
in Jersey City.  After September 11, the only violence I saw in the streets
around here, aside from the machine gun armed government forces on each
corner 24 hours a day, was fighting between Indian Hindu kids and Egyptian
Moslem kids.

I did not interview any of them so I don't know much more than that.  Side
bar, all of the Coptic churches in the area quickly added English language
signage to the front of their buildings after one of them got shot up.

There is no conflict between _Hindus and Muslims_in India. The conflict is
between secular Indians (Hindus + Muslims +  Sikhs + Christians + Jains +
Budhhists) and non secular/fascist Indians (Hindus + Muslims etc.). To say
that there is a conflict between Hindus and Muslims is to concede too much
to the fascist viewpoint. Similarly, there is a conflict between secular
Pakistanis and fascists one in Pakistan. Ditto for Bangladesh. The principal
conflict is between secular and fascist viewpoints, and not between Hindus
and Muslims.
