    Indian position on Khalistani Sikhs is as radical as any other country would be against terrorists.

    The other 99.999% of Sikhs, are our brothers.

      Forgive my western ignorance, but what makes them all terrorists in your eyes?

        To me, it sounds like they’re terrorists simply because they’re separatists.

        Imagine if Canada considered separatist Quebecois as terrorists (yes, an infinitely small few were, but the vast majority just want a referendum)

          I’ve had that same thought while trying to navigate this.

        You know what the Indian Hindu majority and their media doesn’t seem to consider terrorism? Pogroms against Sikhs, or Muslims.

        So… that should tell you something.

        Highjacking and bombing aeroplane, attacking people opposing their POV, bombing in general, killing of prime minister.

        Your Western biased ignorance forgiven.

          Do the majority of separatists condone those actions?
