BBC film on Bluestar angers Sikhs in UK

[Saini84]

A controversial BBC film about the Indian Army storming Golden Temple in 1984, which depicts late Sikh leader Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale "in a similar way to Osama Bin Laden", has provoked a furious response from many members of the community in Britain, a media report said.
A number of Sikhs have condemned the documentary, 1984: A Sikh Story, which they see as nothing but a slur on Bhindranwale, who was killed during the 'Operation Bluestar' ordered by the then Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, The Daily Mail reported.
Dr Sadhu Singh, the Chairman of the Council of Sikh Temples, said many viewers were angered that "the BBC showed him (Bhindranwale) looking like bin Laden".
He said, "They used pictures of him wearing a turban and holding a gun. To someone who doesn't know what Sikhism is about, it would be very misleading. Sikhs were attacked after September 11, but Sikhs are nothing to do with bin Laden.""Some people are very upset that the documentary also showed Sonia Deol dancing with Hindus as if there is no problem between Hindus and Sikhs. The feeling is still there that people who were responsible for 1984 have not been brought to justice."

First: there is no problem with Hindus and Sikhs, We dance with those 'Hindus' all the time.
Second: If they are not happy with the documentary they can make another one and present Sant Bhindrawala in another light.

Firstly, Blue-Star was a congress-Khalistani thing, not a Hindu-Sikh one.

Secondly, bhindrawalla does look like Bin laden even without his rifle.

Thirdy, it's not d Sikh anyone has a problem with. It's the Khalsitani's.

Fourthly, most Sikh don't kno that the very term 'Khalistan' is just a
synonym of Pakistan. They both mean "Land of the pure".
( it's fascist to look at everyone who is not U or your as impure.
The nazis did that, n now d Wahabi's n Salafi's do it. Khalsitani's also do it.
They r d only 'pure' ones. N dey want to b loved n respected for that.
As to Indira Gandhi, well, she was a fool who wanted to b a Stalin. N just like
stalin she suffered from panick attacks n wud over-react. Does any-one kno
how many ppl, mostly Hindu's, she murdered during d emergency?? ).

As to dancing with Hindu's, well, all of Guru gobind singh's panj pyaara's were Hindu's.

With a gun he does luk like bin laden. Actually it was bin laden who looked like him.
Bin Laden had indeed modelled himself after bhindrawalle. It's so obvious bin laden
aped his mannerisms too, n d way he walked n carried himself n gave speeches...
So Y is ther a fuss? Both, bhindrawalle n bin laden wer trained n armed by pakistan.
Weren't they? N they both were fascists too.

What gets me is dat now it's d sikh modelling themselves after bin laden.
D sikh men hv started wearing d salwar to luk macho. Pajami worn by d gurus
made dem luk slightly feminine, but i'll always prefer a pajami over a salwar.

Bin Laden had modelled himself after bhindrawalle, aped his mannerisms,
n d way he walked n carried himself n gave speeches...
so its bin laden actually who looks like bhindrawalla.

In fact taliban or ISIS or ISIL, Khalistanis, they all luk alike...

Why, the veryt word khalistan is a synonym of the word Pakistan.
