…And we can also recognize meanness

So according to a french satellite TV station, TV5, Ghandi had failed in India. They said he could not stop a million death during the partition of India. Every normal person knows that Ghandi has fasted days for the end of hostilities, and that he was instrumental in moving the belligerants and compelling them to stop fighting.

This TV station, if followed closely by people living in zones of conflict, has been for years oozing misinformation and subtle, harmful innuendos, pitting cast against cast and members of the same religion against each other. If a bomb explodes near mosul, they positively identify the culprit, and then drop that they are sunni muslims.

Only God knows if the culprits belong to the insane and possibly bought Al Qaeida. Even the americans and other intelligence services do not escape suspicion. Should we remind people that there were british agents blowing up bombs in Saudi Arabia in the nineties?

The integrity of presenting news is much compromised in the west. And some stations do not bother about truth.

Muslims still very much appreciate Jawaher Lal Nehru, even if he was at the helm of India at the time of the atrocities. TV5, eat your heart out! You will not hide or alter the truth.
