Hopefully this momentum building up towards January 7th, as instructed by Bhai Gurbaksh Singh Khalsa Ji, can mean the requisite number of signatures are exceeded earlier than the deadline if all of us Sangat unite towards achieving this as a small step we can do in solidarity with Bhai Sahib in the West.

Strange why some Sikhs are petitioning Obama?

Bhaji it's all about using the democratic lobbying influence of Sikhs abroad (in order to affect White House policy) which may in turn (if onwardly communicated by US Embassy officials in Delhi) influence those in power in Delhi to see the light on releasing innocent political prisoners who had long ago completed their falsely created (by Congress-Indira) initial prison sentences for crimes they did not commit.

Their only crime in the eyes of Congress-Indira being to be Gursikh!

even if Obama doesn't do it the media will cover it so its still worth doing

So you think US policy is affected by petitions or financial gain, trade agreements and strategic interests ?

This petition will be brushed under carpet with no noticeable impact. This is the

harsh reality of the situation.

Yes for some strange Sikhs, their petitions play a very important role in shaping US policies. The US administration comes to a standstill without such petitions.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
