Everytime I read another sanctimonius article from “Sure Veer”…Well..
You call Indians who mocked Dubai a “disgrace.” Strong words from a man whose name appeared prominently in the tapes. “Wrote it… I’ve dressed it up”…the world remembers or can recollect if it wants to.You brushed that off with remarkable ease.
Here’s the inconvenient question you carefully avoided: Who spent years holding Dubai up as a mirror to shame India? Who implied that India was chaotic, unsafe, and ungovernable while breathlessly praising Gulf efficiency? Your tribe, Mr. Sanghvi. The same Lutyens commentariat that used every foreign city as a crowbar to pry apart Indian confidence.
When you spend years telling Indians their country is inferior, don’t be shocked when some of them feel vindication rather than grief when your preferred paradise takes a hit. That reaction — however uncivil — didn’t emerge from a vacuum. You helped create it.
The Pew Research Centre recently found that 88% of Indians view their fellow citizens favorably — among the highest globally. Americans, by contrast, increasingly view their compatriots as immoral and corrupt. By your logic of collective character judgement, what does that make America? What does it make India?
You won’t answer that. Because the answer demolishes your thesis.
Dubai is a magnificent city. It is also a city that spent decades marketing itself as invulnerable, outsourcing its security entirely to American military presence, while Indians who genuinely worked on their nation’s defence were quietly mocked by people like you as nationalistic simpletons.
Mr. Sanghvi: A man who compromised integrity.has no standing to lecture ordinary Indians about theirs. Clean the considerable mess in your own house before issuing eviction notices to others.
How do you figure it out that the tweets were not from south India or from anywhere else? Language ? Most tweets I see on twitter on any Damon issue is in English. So this author with biased mind and troublesome method should work to remove his prejudice first.
