The Indian Govt is to blame and stupid liers are not Sikh youths we can wear whatever jackets we want ,wearing a jacket does not make you Al Qaeda as these IDIOTS have told the WHOLE WOLRD, the BBC radio 4 goes across the wolrd,and these IDIOTS and the INDIAN GOVT have just told the already uneducated world lies THAT we are WITH al qaeda.

The BBC / Indian Govt and the other fools who added 'spice' to the show will be 110% responsible if a Sikh tommorw gets attacked and is told he is with Al Qaeda as THEY were the ones broadcasting lies to the already uneducated public.

Sarpanch what nonsense. "...BBC...responsible if a sikh gets attacked..." Whoes responsible for all the sikh on sikh violence?? Like it or not there was some truth in that show. Claiming Sikhs are linked to Al Qaeda is probably overthe top, but the other topics highlighted need discussion on an intelectual level. No doubt there is corruption, in gurudwara finances, no doubt some sikh leaders are inciting murder, these by there very nature are against our beleifs.

a link between sikhs and al qaeda? the truth?

the Gurdwara fights and all that stuff is due to cultural influence. those people got bored of fighting in Pubs and decided to move into GuruGhar. sooner or later the youngsters will oust them. but to take them and throw an al qaeda twist in there is ludicrous. to say there are terrorists in the UK with the ability to carry out attacks on a par with al qaeda is mental.

these budday couldn't even build adequate toilet facilities for Gurdware in their time let alone build explosives.

it's a self-fulfilling prophecy - on one side you massacre Sikh youth in Punjab and on the other you shout terrorist at anyone who so much as whimpers back at you.

watch out there is a link between Santa Claus and Al Qaeda!!

he's got a beard and he does training in the north pole..

That sunny hundal should shut up,he in no way shape or form does speak for Sikhs

Whats the reporter Bassi on about 'Sikh Leaders give speechees from Pakistan over the internet'??

What speeches from Pakistan - lier

COMPLIANT TO OFCOM

On the 26th of Feb 2008 BBC RADIO 4 Broadcast File on 4 at 8pm.The programme was full of slander and complete lies against the Sikh Community,the reporter and producers made claims such as Sikhs have joined hands with Al Qaeda,UK Born Sikhs recieve training at Pakistani camps,lies that Sikh leaders give speeches to encourage militancy and terror from Pakistan over the internet there is no evidence of this on the web,Sikhs were falsely accused of bombing Air India in 1985 no Sikh has been proven guilty for this bombing,Among other lies were that the Sikh Homeland in Panjab is in the midst of a militant insurgency,Sikhs in the UK fund terrorism,UK Sikhs support terrorism through temple funds,Sikhs are forging links with Islamist terror groups,Sikh temples are becoming breeding grounds for Abu Hamza style Extremist preaching,the list is endless,This has had a huge effect on the average public who is uneducated ,Sikhs already get attacked due to mistaken identity after 9/11 .By broadcasting statements like the above:ie:Sikhs are with Al Qaeda this increases the risk of innocent Sikhs getting attacked.Sikhs in no way or shape or form support or fund terrorism and neither are we with Al Qaeda and nor do we receieve any training for any purpose from them,their is no proof that Sikhs have carried out acts of terror as said in the programme these are lies and amount to slander of the UK Sikh Coummunity,we are disgusted by the BBC and at how low their standards have become,and urge OFCOM to take swift action agianst them.

Now we just have to wait for a spiced up news report by Indian media with dramatic music on the issue or the Panjab Police to pick up an innocent Sikhs and put RDX on him and claim hes Babbar Khalsa funded form the UK,

[anom7]

this si the type of stuff that always makes us look bad

its people like these who always put our people bak

they dont care about the pnath, but themselves

wat terrorism is in punjab?

has this guy EVER gone to punjab? ITs all crap on how they find bombs, andall tha other stuff. And if he wants to go bak to the 80s or something y doesnt he talk about the inncoent people piked up by punjab gov and killed in cold blood

the thousands and thousands of innocent people, PURLEY innocent people killed. Y doesnt he talk about how nobody from 84 has been convicted, the people wh insitiagted the riots. Y doesnt he talk aboiut how the invasion on darbar sahib was an attack on the sikh people, as they attacked on guru arjun dev jes shaheedi divas when many peoplewud be there

y that day? y didnt they assianate sant je and save causalities? Y did KPS gill kill so many inncoent people? Wat about peopkle like gobind raam? If killing someone like gobind raam is a terorist, i hope that if the time ever arived id be a terrorist

the indian gov is the terroirst, not the sikhs. And people like these are fken idiots who have sold out their own people for personal success. Theyre were some bad people int he movement, but WHAT movement is 100% pefect? 90% of isyf and babar khalsa were amazing sikhs who only fought injustice and never killed innocents. And y is this guy makiing link to al queda, which are compeltly false? i hate sellouts to our own people

I thought the whole Armadeep Bassey programme was nothing more than immature self created propaganda in its most basic sense where over exaggerated information was presented in order to influence the audience. Armadeep Bassey obviously presented facts selectively to give loaded messages in order to produce a hysterical rather than rational response to the information presented.

Now as a Global Sikh community, we gave the journalists a certain amount of ammunition to work with. Putting people like Avtar S Sangera the self confessed “babbar lion” forward as spokesman was one ridiculous move. Face it, in the UK, we have had some embarrassing collective representation of Sikhs over the last 20 years who have done nothing more that pull out kirpans, pull each others turbans off and manipulated the funds of the golak. How many British Sikhs witnessed these traumatic and embarrassing scenes in their local Gurdwaras when they were growing up! Back those backward actions with some kind of fabricated motivation for terrorism and the media have got all the material they need to write something damning about the Sikh community. I mean to the white man, you can’t get a more aggressive looking person than a Sikh male with his big turban, long beard and long kirpan. Most people would want to believe that under every Sikh male is a brutal terrorist waiting to come out. So why do we play so easily into their stereotypes and then cry about it later!!
