So there we have it. In one of our earlier posts, we had alluded to the wikileaks document where the US ambassador David Mulford said that Congress would stoop to any level to win elections. This was said in the context of the so called Hindu terror. Now we know why the ambassador said that. It seems the Rajkumar Rahul Gandhi, your next PM, told him that radicalized Hindu groups posed a bigger threat to India than LeT. This would be quite funny if this guy were not going to be the next PM. Unfortunately, thanks to Congress their myopic search for a unifying force (back in the late 1990s when Congress was floundering), led to the doors of the Gandhi family. Sonia and Rahul Gandhi assumed important positions. Now in most democracies, the national leaders are people with education in law. You may even find journalists and business leaders. Now I don't have to tell you the qualifications of the Gandhi family. When Indian voters in their infinite wisdom, voted these two in, they did not look at what they were bringing to the party. From all the scams and mishaps, we know what their leadership skills are. From the wikileaks documents, we know what they think of mainstream India and aam aadmi (who is a Hindu in majority of the cases).
According to the article; Rahul's 'irresponsible' remark undermines anti-terror fight: BJP in the Daily Pioneer the BJP spokesperson Ravishankar Prasad said,"In one stroke, Rahul Gandhi has sought to give a big leverage to the propaganda of all terror groups operating from Pakistan and certain segments of the Pakistan establishment," he told reporters here.
Prasad said such remarks impinge upon India's strategic security and fight against terrorism.
"If he sees a fringe radical Hindu group as the biggest threat in spite of so many terrorist attacks including 26/11 in which involvement of Pakistani groups is confirmed, then it only underscores how ignorant he is about India and its problems," the BJP leader said.

Coming under attack after his reported statement that 'radicalised Hindu groups' posed a bigger threat than outfits like Lashkar-e-Tayiba , Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Friday diluted his comments by saying that terrorism and communalism of all types are a threat to India .
"Rahul Gandhi's view is that terrorism and communalism of all types are a threat to India. We need to remain vigilant against acts of terrorism of all kinds no matter who commits them," All India Congress Committee General Secretary Janardan Dwivedi said in a release issued on his behalf.
The statement came hours after the Congress grappled with the issue of the WikiLeaks cable, which claimed that Rahul Gandhi had told United States Ambassador Timothy Roemer that growth of 'radicalised Hindu groups' which create religious tensions in India could pose a bigger threat to the country than activities of groups like Lashkar-e-Tayiba.
