The proverbial impartial Martian landing on Indian soil would be astonished at the alternative universe that has been constructed by the radical leftists and old media (especially the English language media). He, of course, would not suspect that the deep state, Chinese and other handlers feed the old media a lot of their so-called stories and funnel much money to them.

I have been particularly entertained by a few big media stories in the last few weeks. Some of them revolve around the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), and of course, anything related to JNU has to be black humor, considering how much taxpayers’ money has been wasted on this astonishing monument to mediocrity, nepotism and sedition. Neutron bomb candidate, did you say?

The first story was in the aftermath of the so-called Mahishasura Shahadat [sic] Day celebrations held there. The stories that came out – and I am thankful to Abhinav Prakash for his on-the-ground reporting of the realities in JNU – were shocking. First, the very word used – shahadat – suggests that there was an element of the ISPR involved, as the Urdu word would naturally occur to them. The fact that a lot of the slogan-shouting involved secessionists supporting violent Kashmiri separatists is another clue.

There was even a fellow whose father was once a big wheel in the banned SIMI, and his call records showed some distinct anomalies. Now this is indeed worth following up, if you are an investigative journalist. And recalling the father’s antecedents is appropriate, considering, for example, that the only reason why Sonia and Rahul, and earlier Indira and sons, have any claim to rule India is based on Daddy. But this angle, plus the fact that this fellow hid out on the JNU campus – who sheltered a fugitive? – was met with a studious silence by the old media.

Second, the Mahishasura Mardini metaphor is one of India’s oldest, dating back to the Indus-Sarasvati, thus making it, even to ‘Aryan’ Invasion fantasy fans, not an ‘Aryan’-‘Dravidian’ divide. The fabrication of the idea of the revered Goddess seducing the titan was by a Christian fundamentalist publisher, run by foreigners with foreign funding. It stands to reason: they have their story of Samson and Delilah, the latter, a hired gun, seducing the former. Naturally, judging others by their own standards, the Bible-thumping fundies made up this story. In any other culture than India, they would have been considered blasphemers.

In India, there were no religious sanctions, but why does the old media keep quiet? Why is this not seen as an indirect interference in India’s internal affairs by a quango/evangelistic front of the deep state? I considered this possibility of “false flag operations” a year ago in Firstpost.

Some people were unconvinced that there is a malign deep state in the West, bent on preserving its hegemony. Well, I have good news for them: it’s not just me saying it, but also a prominent American politician, and one-time candidate for the presidency. Okay, so he’s a bit of a troglodyte, but here Pat Buchanan says, in the context of ‘Trumpophobia’, pretty much what I said, in pretty much the same words:
