Fateh. I have been reading and hearing on the radio today that Hansra, the former host of Ankhila Punjab has been ordered by Jathedar of Akal Takhat to pesh himself infront of Panj Piaray at Akal Takhat later this month because he froze the bank accounts of the biggest Gurdwara in Toronto and didn't release the Sangat's funds until he was given $70 000 out of the golak! What does the Sangat think of this? Does it mean yet another Khalistani leader turned out to be thief? Or is there more to it? Maybe it is a conspiracy? You can read this at almost any punjabi weekly (for those that know punjabi - and if you don't, learn!). Go to www.ajitweekly.com Gurjeet Singh

Have just been doing a bit of reading on Alexander the Great, and his father Philip of Macedon. Just a few questions, what does Punjabi history and culture say of Alexander? Iv heard he was called by a different name? I think a large number of his armies settled in the area we know as punjab, and according to some, the punjabi people share certain qualities of these early greek and persian warrior races. What do you think? He managed to conquer a fair bit of the world? Any Budding Alexander like generals out there?! And also the author suggested that the qoran had reference to a 'two horned prophet', and apparently in some of the old texts depicting Alexanders life he …

When akal takht asked him to come in front of akal takht and explain his work (his work = snake venom.. which kills person's sikhi slowly & slowly).. Well anyway.. The reason he gave was the he is blacklisted by Indian govt cauz of his support of sant bhinderanwaley and thus he can't come to akal takht to get himself pesh.. But akal takht said "Yeah rite and they kicked him out of the panth".. Now after he got out of sikh panth (He is now tankhaia) and he is now in india Where's the blacklist ?? why he is not in jail?? Seee these ppls are not male.. !! far away is being singh.. Below is the pix of him @ delhi airport !

Gurfateh! I was wondering if anyone here knew where i could find some video footage of genocide events around the world. For example, if htere's any footage of video from the 2nd world war dealing with Hitler's rampage, any news reports from the 1984 attacks that look at it from a genocidal point of view, not a terrorist point of view... i have 5 examples of genocide which are state/government led: 1) India/Punjab 1984 (i know it has continued but i was only gonna focus on that specific year) 2) Iraq/Kosovo 1990's 3) Europe 1938-1945 4) Native Americans in California during the Cali Gold Rush 5) Armenians in Trueky in 1890. If any of you have any input or and idea…
