L.K. Advani, the man whom the Bharatiya Janata Party would make Prime Minister, evidently thinks he can fool most Hindus all the time. The political fortunes of the BJP, floundering in the maelstrom of Gandhian Socialism, had touched a new low in the aftermath of Indira Gandhi's assassination in 1984. But once Ayodhya captured the imagination of the Hindus, Advani hijacked it to bring himself to the centre-stage of national politics.

With no logic, no legal figment and no public support at their command, the NGO brigade descended to wringing out every drop of emotion, with the help of a misguided section of the media. They spun out a tear-jerker that could be a Bollywood scriptwriter's envy. The leading light of the India-baiting jholawala brigade, one Nandita Haksar, was in her element on the forecourt of Rashtrapati Bhawan.

Barring Paris and Romania, my diplomatic assignments were mainly in Arab/Muslim countries; Turkey (ten years in two tenures), Azerbaijan, Jordan, Egypt, Algiers, Senegal, which gave me close interaction and understanding of Islam, a complex, varied and sophisticated religion. Since then, I have read more on Islam, the Middle East, Central and South Asia. I have used the term Islamic fundamentalism and Islamic terrorism in the absence of any other suitable phrase. One should also describe Israeli state terrorism as Jewish or Zionist terrorism and US/UK state terrorism as Christian terrorism. Islamic and other terrorisms as part of State policies are not going to disappear; hence the necessity for comprehensive understanding of this phenomenon. This essay covers a century of Anglo-American policies and manipulations in the Islamic world, creating a Frankenstein monster of Islamic terrorism. It is meant for those really interested in the problem so as not to have knee-jerk reactions like suggesting carpet-bombing of Pakistan or to treat Muslims like Israelis treat Palestinians - Author

Hitler's and London's Grand Mufti
During the formative years of the Muslim Brotherhood, the British simultaneously promoted the career of another "Islamist" named Haji Amin al-Husseini. A notorious anti-Semite with little Islamic theological training, he was promoted by Sir Ronald Storrs, British Governor General, and in 1921 installed as president of the Supreme Muslim Council, a British-sponsored association of hand-picked Muslim religious leaders. With British rigging, Al-Husseini was 'elected ' next year the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem.
