Dig into the 1947 Partition of India, when Britain split the region into two states, India and Pakistan, and the mass migrations and violence that followed.
--
In 1947, the British viceroy announced that after 200 years of British rule, India would gain independence and be partitioned into Hindu India and Muslim Pakistan. What followed was one of the largest and bloodiest forced migrations in history: an estimated 1 million people lost their lives. What caused this violent aftermath? Haimanti Roy details the lasting legacies of the Partition of India.
Lesson by Haimanti Roy, directed by Jagriti Khirwar & Raghav Arumugam.

- Going beyond the physical dimension of fasting
- Remembering the deceased, poor, sick, hungry, refugees, prisoners, and more
- Look for ways we can shift the public opinion and draw attention of our governments and human rights organizations about the Muslim minorities who are put under distress because political strife and conflict
- The issues of the Palestinians, Houthis, Rohingya should be given a top priority
- Even when the Pope visited our Grand Ayatullah, Sayyid ‘Ali as-Sistani in Najaf, he talked emphasized on the role that the great religious leaders should play in curbing these tragedies and to urge the great powers, to prefer reason and wisdom over the language of war
- The style of the du‘ā taught to us by the Prophet is interesting: begins with praying for all others before you pray for yourself!

India is known as a secular and the world’s largest democracy. The country has hosted persecuted refugees from countries such as Tibet, Sri Lanka, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Myanmar for decades, but now refugees in the country are being granted asylum based on their faith. Since the ruling BJP came to power in 2014, it promised to throw what is calls “illegal immigrants or termites” out of the country.

The US has begun withdrawing its troops in northern Syria, giving the green light for a Turkish operation against the Kurdish militia that it has been supporting in the past several years. Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has said his country seeks to combat Kurdish fighters whom he described as “terrorists” and to establish “a safe zone” for Syrian refugees currently living in Turkey. Syria’s Kurdish militants accuse the US of stabbing them in the back, after Washington decided to abandon them in the face of an imminent Turkish invasion. The UN and the EU are concerned and have warned Ankara against military action in Syria.

Detrás de la Razón - Refugiados sin refugio - 06Sept2015 - Spanish

Published on Sep 6, 2015
El angelito con las alas rotas, tirado como basura en la orilla del mar, asfixiado por la desesperación, con su boca tragando arena, ha hecho consciente al mundo de las malditas decisiones que se han tomado desde Europa, desde Arabia Saudí, desde Turquía y desde Washington.
\\\"Querido niño mío... ¡Cómo dueles en Europa! Si la cruel muerte te hubiera encontrado unas semanas antes, antes de abandonar Kobani (Siria), como a tantos otros, nadie sabría de ti, nadie se daría golpes de pecho, nadie lloraría con el perturbador relato de tu padre\\\", escribe nuestra compañera y corresponsal Raquel González.
El angelito con las alas rotas, es el símbolo de inocentes martirizados por los terroristas que devoran Siria, sangre que las potencias del mundo disimulan no ver, pero que hoy a la fuerza tienen que ver (200 mil sirios asesinados, más de 11 millones de desplazados).
El funeral de este pequeño y las palabras de su padre han estremecido el sentimiento mundial, pero la fotografía de la tragedia continúa, si no es el mar y la muerte, entonces les toca lo que estamos viendo en Budapest (capital de Hungría).
Aunque vivos, sucumbirán a la mirada de humillación absoluta, tirados en el suelo, entre la basura o entre el tolete policial. Los dejaron subir al tren, pero los mandaron a un encierro para refugiados. No les abrieron el paso a su Europa soñada, la de Alemania.
Inglaterra acepta un poquito más de refugiados, España dice que no puede, muchos le echan la culpa a la canciller de Alemania, Angela Merkel, por la crisis migratoria. Rusia, a toda Europa.
Pero el problema no son los migrantes ni una Europa incapaz de aceptarlos. El problema es lo que hizo el Occidente con Oriente Medio para ver lo que estamos viendo. El apoyo a las rebeliones y terrorismo ha provocado uno de los más grandes éxodos con dimensiones inconcebibles.
El problema es que lo que se puede hacer ahora, no se hace: ¿Por qué no en vez de contener la migración, detienen la guerra y el terror en Oriente Medio y así ya nadie huiría? ¿Por qué no los Ejércitos más poderosos del mundo, en un santiamén exterminan a los terroristas de los que huía el niñito Aylan?
