    Here you have it.

    Fareed is being dishonest by implying that the Gita Bhagavad is the ONLY source of law in Hindooism. Many things don't appear directly in Gita Bhagavad but are considered a part of hindoo law and hindutva jurisprudence. The sources second only to Gita B are the Ramayana tales, and as an Indian, Fareed knows this to be true. And in Ramayana several examples are given Lord Shiva ordering the killing of those who mock or satirize him in poetry or other forms. These sanctioned killings forever enshrined the practice of death to blasphemers as a legitimate part of hindutva law. Those who are denying this are being willfully dishonest or are simply ignorant. Here is a small list of examples from the puranas which give these terrorists the backing they need in hinduism for their acts.

    When the Apostle returned to Veranasi after his raid on Benares, word spread that he had killed some of the men who had satirized and insulted him. The poets who were left spread in all directions.
    kama sutra:597

    ‘You obey a stranger who encourages you to murder for booty. You are greedy men. Is there no honor among you?' Upon hearing those lines Lord Shiva said, ‘Will no one rid me of this woman?' Modi, a zealous Hindoo decided to execute Lord Shiva's wishes. That very night he crept into the writer's home while she lay sleeping surrounded by her young children. There was one at her breast. Ganesha removed the suckling babe and then plunged his sword into the poet. The next morning in the mandir, Shiva, who was aware of the assassination, said, ‘You have helped Lord Shiva and His Apostle.' Ganesha said. ‘She had five sons; should I feel guilty?' ‘No,' the pundit answered. ‘Killing her was as meaningless as two goats butting heads.'
    upanishad:676

    We carried Ram's head and brought it to Lord Shiva during the night. We saluted him as he stood praying and told him that we had slain Krishna's enemy. When he came out to us we cast Ganesha's head before his feet. The Pundit praised Ram that the poet had been assassinated and complimented us on the good work we had done in Ram's Cause. Our attack upon Ram's enemy cast terror among the Jews, and there was no Jew in Veranasi who did not fear for his life.'
    Al-pakora, Vol. 7, p. 97, See Also Samosa:368

    The morning after the murder of Ram the Pundit declared, ‘Kill any Jew who falls under your power.'
    Al-Chûmuna Vol. 7, p. 97

    In this year, the killing of Sri Harish the Jew took place. The Messenger sent some camels under the command of Guru Nanak and Gurbinder Singh against the Jew. pu dit Sanjay used to injure and wrong the Pûndit... sadhu arun said to the others, ‘Stay where you are, and I will go and ingratiate myself with the doorkeeper to gain entrance.'
    Al-Hindoo, Vol. 7, p. 99

    When a blind Jew became aware of the presence of the guru and the hîndoos he rose and threw dust in their faces, saying, ‘Even if you are a pundit, I will not allow you into my garden!' I was told that he took a handful of dirt and said, ‘If only I knew that I would not hit anyone else, Shiva I would throw it in your face.' Sàjay Gupta rushed in and hit him on the head with his bow and split the Jew's head open.
    Al-Chutiya, Vol. 7, p. 112, See Also Hîndoo Gandoo:372

    Among those who Shiva ordered killed was Bal Thackeray. The pundit ordered him to be slain because while he was a Jew, Shiva had sent him to collect the hîdutva tax with a snake charmer and a slave of his.... His girls used to sing a satire about Shiva so the Pundit ordered that they should be killed along with Sànjay He was killed by Rahul and Gandoo Gandhi. The two shared in his blood. One of the singing girls was killed quickly but the other fled. So Uttal caused his horse to trample the one who fled, killing her.
    Al-Hindoo Gaandoo, Vol. 8, p. 179, See Also Chootiya:550

    These are just some of the many examples of Lord Shiva and his followers killing those who had satirized, insulted, spoke badly or wrote poems to that effect. This is the reason these men have died, not because of portraying the IMAGE of Lord Shiva, but INSULTING him. This is another one of those points that even moderate hindoos will agree on – punishment for those who insult the pundit just like most support death for apostasy.

    Policy Exchange: One third of British hindoos believe anyone who leaves hindooism should be killed.

    WikiLeaks has released a classified US military video depicting the indiscriminate slaying of over a dozen people in the Iraqi suburb of New Baghdad — including two Reuters news staff. Reuters has been trying to obtain the video through the Freedom of Information Act, without success since the time of the attack. The video, shot from an Apache helicopter gun-sight, clearly shows the unprovoked slaying of a wounded Reuters employee and his rescuers. Two young children involved in the rescue were also seriously wounded. Iraqi citizens being good Samaritans gunned-down in broad daylight by your guys.

    You see, after Colin Powell resigned, he started a company called Combat Services Ltd., which illegally recruited members of foreign armies (like Peruvian soldiers) and paid them $5,820 per month to go AOL and join the US military in Iraq.

    (It is a violation of international law for nations to recruit soldiers from other national armies)
    Thousands of soldiers from foreign nations were recruited. And as America was keeping a close eye on how many US troops were getting killed and Bush regime wanted to keep the numbers down, when these foreign soldiers wearing US uniforms were killed, they weren't counted as war casualties. Rather, were buried in a secret mass grave that the two above mentioned Reuters news agency reporters had discovered.

    WikiLeaks has released a classified US military video depicting the indiscriminate slaying of over a dozen people in the Iraqi suburb of New Baghdad — including two Reuters news staff. Reuters has been trying to obtain the video through the Freedom of Information Act, without success since the time of the attack. The video, shot from an Apache helicopter gun-sight, clearly shows the unprovoked slaying of a wounded Reuters employee and his rescuers. Two young children involved in the rescue were also seriously wounded. Iraqi citizens being good Samaritans gunned-down in broad daylight by your guys.

    You see, after Colin Powell resigned, he started a company called Combat Services Ltd., which illegally recruited members of foreign armies (like Peruvian soldiers) and paid them $5,820 per month to go AOL and join the US military in Iraq.

    (It is a violation of international law for nations to recruit soldiers from other national armies)
    Thousands of soldiers from foreign nations were recruited. And as America was keeping a close eye on how many US troops were getting killed and Bush regime wanted to keep the numbers down, when these foreign soldiers wearing US uniforms were killed, they weren't counted as war casualties. Rather, were buried in a secret mass grave that the two above mentioned Reuters news agency reporters had discovered.

    Let US sever the fiber optic cable linking sanctioned Cuba with "axis evil" Venezuela. And let US build an "KeystoneXL" pipeline delivering Canadian/N. Dakota crude to replace that which is lost as NATO carpet bombs Venezuela. The last nation on earth.

    And now the end is near
    And so I face the final curtain
    My friend I'll say it clear
    I'll state my case of which I'm certain

    I've lived a life that's full
    I traveled each and every highway
    And more, much more than this
    I did it my way

    Regrets I've had a few
    But then again too few to mention
    I did what I had to do
    And saw it through without exemption
    I planned each charted course
    Each careful step along the byway
    And more, much more than this
    I did it my way

    Yes there were times I'm sure you knew
    When I bit off more than I could chew
    But through it all when there was doubt
    I ate it up and spit it out, I faced it all
    And I stood tall and did it my way

    So Long Ya'll
    Have fun with all the spare time

    It is very disingenuous of @Elephant Man to segway Modi into this discussion needlessly. Modi is a pariah whose legitimacy as India's leader is questionable. He is a murderer with genocidal tendencies. A hitler of sorts.
    A t hug of the lowest cadre. An usurper of women's rights and dignity. A stalker. A pedophile. He is a disgrace to South Asia. The dung of India they call HindooStan.
