At the same
time as the Ayodhya demolition, and in retaliation for it, dozens of Hindu temples were
destroyed in Pakistan and Bangladesh. Some were attacked in Great Britain and other
countries outside of India as well. Yet such stories were treated as more footnotes to the
Ayodhya mosque destruction, as if the Hindus were responsible for them by what they did
with one disputed mosque, and Muslims were not responsible for their own actions once
provoked by Hindus.
If we look at how the news media treated the event it appears that one Hindu demolition of
a disputed mosqueid more news worthy and an expression of greater intolerance than Islamic
destruction of any number of Hindu temples. In this not prejudice and an anti-Hindu
attitude of great proportions? Why is the destruction of Hindu temples not a newsworthy
items, but the destruction of one disputed mosque worth global headlines? In fact Muslims
also destroy the mosques of other Muslim sects, like the Ahmadiya mosques which have been
destroyed in Pakistan, and this is not treated as a news worthy item either. |
