‘Let’s replicate the genocide’

On the grotesque response from Indian politicians and media elites to the attack in Pahalgam.

1. Dehumanization of Kashmiris, Muslims and Pakistanis
2. A call for no red lines/a final solution
3. The reinforcement of a Hindu imagination over Kashmir

I have been receiving some messages asking for book recommendations on Kashmir. Here is a fantastic list compiled by Stand With Kashmir -- a diaspora-led group which seeks to raise awareness about the occupation. Check out their site for more resources. standwithkashmir.org/books-films-on

How my support for Palestine made me a ‘traitor’ to India” - a stunning reflection by an Indian American on the opposition she faced from her community over her participation in the pro-Palestine encampments at Harvard. azadessa.substack.com/p/how-my-suppo…

India plans on building “the highest train station” in the world in Kashmir. Delhi says it’s about economic growth & development. Kashmiris know it means land dispossession, ecocide and forcing integration with India.

When it comes to racism, xenophobia and moral panics, there is very little separating the mainstream Indian media from their right wing counterparts in the US.

The hate is really out of control.

The butcher of Gujarat and the man wanted by the ICC for war crimes.

News of ICC arrest warrants for Israeli leaders was welcomed, but several expressed it was just a single step on a long road ahead

The dehumanization of Indian Muslims for standing up for Palestinians is well underway.

We all know what comes next.

Later this week, I will be joined by @suchitrav.bsky.social and Dr. Hafsa Kanjwal at Socialism Conference in Chicago to discuss: 1) India's colonial project in Kashmir; 2) Indian political prisoners; 3) impact of India-Israel ties on global authoritarianism; & 4) why India gets a pass

Iyer-Mitra's position on Palestine are on par with white supremacists in the US. These views are representative of a worldview that worships the cruel and fascist Israeli genocidal methods that the Indian govt has been actively replic

Iyer-Mitra has also attacked academics. Here, he leads a witch hunt against scholars who dare to question Indian statist perspectives. In an environment of declining civil rights, freedom of speech and media freedom, does Ro Khanna approve of attacks on academic freedom?

In the cesspool of disinformation in India, here is Iyer-Mitra demonizing Mohammed Zubair, the founder of India's foremost fact checking website. He called him 'Jihadi Jabbar', said he'd flash his mother & piss in his living room and ask for pork for 90 days.

Abhijit is part of the far right wing eco-system in India. He is known to routinely dehumanize and invalidate Muslims. Need proof? Here is what he has to say about Ro Khanna's colleague, Rep. Ilhan Omar, when she chose to skip Modi's speech in Congress earlier this summer.

Earlier this week, Indian American politician Ro Khanna, met a character by the name of Abhijit Iyer-Mitr.

Who is Abhijit Iyer-Mitra? And why should you pay attention to his meeting with Congressman Ro Khanna 👇🏾
