Government of India, Ministry of External Affairs is one of the
sharpest.

Coming as it does in the wake of what are now obviously racist
attacks, except to the most thick skinned and delusional, this reeks
of nothing but absurdly wicked humility in the face of abject
stupidity on the part of a country supposedly existing in the
"developed" world. Apparently, "Posted on MEA website, they contain
several links to help them form a better idea of the conditions
there." Really, in all seriousness, does it look likely that
thousands of our students in Australia don't have an idea of
conditions there, but the MEA does?
S.M. Krishna wants our students to concentrate on studies! Clearly,
the moron hasn't lived in a foreign country, doesn't understand what
kind of pressure being an "alien" in a foreign land is, and has
nothing to offer by way of wisdom based on any kind of experience that
is useful to this scenario. Imagine asking a student that fears for
his life to "concentrate on his studies"! That is a bit like
concentrating on the song playing on your headphones when you are
being mugged. "Hear the violin in the background?" Hello, we're
facing the music, not enjoying it.
Now, we have guidelines for seeking admission in Australia! (Read the
article, quoted from The Hindu). Hellooooo!!!!! We don't seem to
have much of a problem getting admissions in Australia when our
students dump US$2 freaking billion into the Australian economy. What
kind of ill timed humour are these sickos unleashing upon us at a time
of trauma? Do we really need these bloody airhead bureaucrats and
academicians telling our students how exactly their admission forms
should be filled?
"Remember that you represent India in Australia"??? Seems to me,
fools, that the biggest PROBLEM is that we represent India - we look
Indian, we smell Indian, and from a racist's viewpoint, we ARE VERY
Indian! Isnt' that the biggest problem we face? Wouldn't it be wise
to advise our students instead to "try and blend with the student
landscape, instead of standing out like dumb Indians"?
To add insult to injury, we're telling our students there to keep
their accommodations clean? Isn't this a particularly insensitive
time to talk about stupid s h i t like this? I personally, am very
unlikely to be reaching for my vaccuum cleaner when someone is trying
to kill me with a knife, thank you.
"Your behaviour and actions should do the country proud", says Shiv
Shanker Menon, Foreign Secretary. Why would anyone under attack
really worry about how to make his country proud? He is bloody trying
to survive! Has any one of us seen anyone unarmed and under severe
attack doing something to make anybody proud? In other words, we're
asking people to do something for us, even as we can do absolutely
nothing for them in times of distress. Shiv Shanker Menon, you are an
abject idiot.
We're even telling our boys not to retaliate, when they have just
started testing out the effectiveness of that approach. What is wrong
when the Australian police aren't capable of defending them? In any
case, I wonder how many goons would be willing to attack you with a
screwdriver if you were likely to pull a gun and shoot point blank
into an ugly white face. Chances are, none.
It may not be a great idea to retaliate all the time, but it certainly
has its value and is sure to be a better option to concentrating on
studies. Try pulling out your text book and digging your face into it
when a screwdriver is being driven through your ribs. No retaliation?
Then what do we have nuclear weapons for? One law for the country
and another for its citizens? Now, that sounds really fair.
Australia does not have an effective police force. If they can't
catch a bunch of young goons and bring them to justice to save
national pride, they aren't worth the dung of buffaloes they should be
mounted on and paraded naked through villages of Bihar, just for
spectacle on a lazy afternoon. Aw s h i t, they can't even win
cricket matches anymore.
They are a country that is suddenly discovering the darkness of hate
that exists in some of their youngsters and are being forcefully woken
up to reality. Their damage control mechanism isn't half as clever as
Pakistan's excellent misinformation cartel, and not even a tenth as
interesting, for a simple reason - nothing of what they say is new,
unexpected, or effective in assuaging feelings and reducing tensions.
Reality hasn't changed for Indian students who are under physical
threat. Truly, Australia is Down Under.
Racism isn't going away anytime soon. But we can certainly be spared
the stupidity and the delusions in dealing with it.
