[Reader-list] Profile: Sheikh Abdul Aziz, Kashmiri leader Killed in police firing in Srinagar

[TaraPrakash]

"And, militant Indian Hindu groups....LOL I wonder what Murtaza means."
Perhaps those groups in India who speak for Hinduism and are based in India?
I agree that it is a callous usage. It is not fair to bring in entire
community just because some people belonging to it have formed some groups
which turn militant at the slightest opportunity. Looking it from a
different perspective, Hinduism supposedly teaches tolerance. The groups who
could not tolerate a small chunk of land not being given to the Amarnath
shrine board, cannot/should not be considered Hindu.
So Murtaza's use of adjective Hindu is not correct.
