Hitler's Avatar Seeks US Visa

Muqtedar Khan



Nishrin Hussein, a resident of Delaware since 1989, suffered immeasurable trauma in February of 2002. Her father, Ehsan Jafferi a former member of the Indian national parliament and a poet was dragged out of his house and burned alive by a rampaging mob.


In that week over 2000 members of a religious minority were killed and burned, over 150,000 were rendered homeless and many women were raped; often as police watched and stubbornly refused to protect religious minorities in Gujarat, a state in India. According to human rights organizations, Indian government commissions and even US government, the man ultimately responsible for this state facilitated genocide was Narender Modi, the current and then Chief Minister of Gujarat.


Modi is now seeking a US Visa to come and speak to his supporters and admirers in New Jersey in the month of August. His visit also forces victims like Nishrin Hussein to relive their trauma.


Narender Modi belongs to a Hindu fascist movement that seeks to make India a global power by first religiously and culturally purifying it through elimination of religious minorities. International Religious Freedom Reports, prepared by the US State Department, implicate Narender Modi's political party Ð the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and its religious affiliates in systematic killings of Muslims and Christians and burning of their homes and businesses; year after year.


Modi is a self-styled disciple of Adolf Hitler. He has often expressed his admiration for Hitler and even members of his own party sometimes refer to him as the Hitler of India. In Gujarat, Adolf Hitler is glorified in higher secondary school textbooks. Modi and the state of Gujarat's growing admiration for Hitler has even spooked Israel. Former Israeli Councilor General David Zohar Zonshine has made significant efforts to rectify the matter, including holding exhibitions to educate Modi's followers about the holocaust. But textbooks printed before Israeli protests are still being used in schools.


Modi frightens me. I think he is sowing the seeds of hatred and preparing the people of Gujarat for a bigger and more ominous genocide in the future.
Modi now wishes to mobilize his supporters in New Jersey. Fortunately a broad spectrum of Indians in America, American academics, human rights organizations and members of the US Congress, like Betty McCollum (D- Minnesota) have come together to forge a coalition against genocide (CAG) and are pressing the State Department to reject this Avatar (re-incarnation) of Hitler.


The Indian elite, empowered by recent economic successes, wish to piggy back on the US to superpower status. They wish to forge a new strategic alliance with the US that will facilitate the transfer of critical military technology, attract financial investments, open US markets to Indian businesses and enlist US' diplomatic support for Indian ascendance.
Modi seeks to increase his influence in the US. He also wishes to increase fund raising from the rich Indian American community to finance his politics in India. It is vital to his cause that he has intimate access to the U.S.


At the moment, Hindu nationalist cannot have both; Modi as a national leader and the US as vehicle to global power. As long as Modi is shunned by the US he is ineligible for national office. It is therefore essential for his supporters to purify his image, and they hope to do so by bullying the US government into allowing him entry in to the US. If he was received in the U.S., he will be projected in India as a leader of global stature.


US law on international religious freedom (section 604) prohibits the State Department from allowing people who commit egregious violations from coming to the US. Modi is now enforcing a new law against religious conversions in Gujarat which primarily targets Christians. This single act of curbing religious consciousness triggers section 604 and alone makes him ineligible for a US visa.


The US Commission on International Religious Freedoms has also asked the State department to deny Modi.


The Bush administration has been excellent on this issue, so far. In 2005 it not only denied Modi a diplomatic visa, but also rescinded a valid tourist visa underscoring his status as an untouchable. All the signals from the State Department suggest that the US will reject any new application from Modi.


All politics is now global. The struggle between secular Hindus and minorities and Hindu nationalism has spilled over to Foggy Bottom and Capitol Hill. The US cannot stay away. It must engage and fight with the Coalition against Genocide to preserve India's democracy and its pluralistic traditions.

History Recap


The HORRORS IN GUJRAT [March 2002] need to be looked at to understand the emergence of "terrorism" in India. Instead of quoting from a Muslim or Islamic source, let us look at a Hindu critic of India, a well-known woman who writes with great passion and is certainly no friend of the "jihadists."

ARUNDHATI ROY in her book WAR TALK (published 2003) writes of the genocide committed by Hindus in Gujarat against totally helpless and unarmed Muslims, thoroughly documenting each of her statements in end notes. Here is an excerpt:

"Officially the number of dead is eight hundred. Independent reports put the figure as high as two thousand. More than one hundred and fifty thousand people, driven from their homes, now live in refugee camps. Women were stripped, gang-raped; parents were bludgeoned to death in front of their children.


Two hundreds and forty dargahs and one hundred and eighty masjids were destroyed. In Ahmedabad, the tomb of Wali Gujarati, the founder of the modern Urdu poem, was demolished and paved over in the course of a night... Arsonists burned and looted shops, homes, hotels, textile mills, buses, and private cars...." (P.19-20)

[Ed. Note: DARGAHs are the tombs of sufi saints who preached peace and amity between Hindus and Muslims.]

Ms. Roy documents a few of the cases of GANG RAPE of MUSLIM WOMEN:

"Doctors conducted post-mortems on a number of women who had been gang raped, many of whom had been burnt subsequently. A woman from Kheda district who was gang raped had her head shaved and ‘Om' cut into her head with a knife by the rapists. She died after a few days in the hospital. There were other instances of ‘Om' engraved with a knife on women's backs and buttocks." [p.117]

[The expression ‘Om' is part of Hindu prayers, somewhat like the Muslims saying "salam."]

Can the jewelers in Mumbai who have now been blown up be blamed for the massacre and the rapes? According to Ms. Roy, the entire Hindu population of Gujarat was involved in the atrocities. [The mass support for the killings is comparable to the mass support for lynchings of Black men in America.] All aspects of the Hindu establishment got involved. "Middle-class people participated in the looting." The poorer people, Dalits and Adivasis, were brought in buses and trucks to loot the Muslims' goods. There was police protection for the looters, even covering fire from the police when some Muslims fought back. It went right to the top. Ms. Roy writes: "While Gujarat burned, our Prime Minister was on MTV promoting his new poems." (P.21)

The Hindus used an alleged attack on a train which was set on fire to signal the coordinated attacks on the Muslims. They claim that the Muslims set the train on fire. Ms. Roy points out that there is, even now, ABSOLUTELY NO EVIDENCE that the Muslims set the train on fire. In fact there is some evidence that the fire was set from within the train
