Politics -- Spinning Out of Control
By Sheila Samples
http://www.countercurrents.org/samples270411.htm

Indian Jamaat-e-Islami Finally Discards
Its Longstanding Pretence Of Being

Given the Jamaat's particular understanding of Islam, which many other Muslims do not accept, it is not surprising that the move has provoked considerable debate, including visceral opposition, in Muslim circle

By Sadanand Patwardhan

What is galling however is the heady brew of innuendoes and facts that are distilled by Kishwar and with which she expects to knock over most. She has been trenchantly critical of Medha Patkar over the years. No one is above criticism. Not even Patkar. But Kishwar it appears for some unknown reason is viscerally allergic to Patkar
