Indian lefties and the war

Indian lefties and the war

- 

they began to openly support radical Islam this disdain deepened. I also discovered that whenever this coalition took up a public position on anything, I could be certain that my place would be on the other side.

This happened last week when loud leftist voices were heard in public forums in Delhi and Mumbai condemning the United States and Israel for their ‘aggression’ in Iran. From the start of this war two weeks ago Muslim protests have erupted to mourn the death of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and now this lament is being fortified with voices from the ‘secular’ left. People who have never opposed the vile ways of the Taliban next door or the evil deeds of the Ayatollahs have been shrill in condemning Israel for what happened in Gaza. What puzzles me is why it is so hard for all forms of brutality and political repression to be condemned?
