    1. This is a topic which despite its red hot current relevance , gets supressed in a global orthodoxy of political correctness and caprice of western leadership. Having exploited every fissure in every geography including Islamist egregiousness ( Pakistan) , they have taken the hypocrisy to a level where it is now biting them. The facetiousess with which the Brits pampered the Khalistans, Pakistanis on their soil was terrible. Ditto Canada. The smug conceit is now getting disturbed. Unless they are existentially threatened they will play the double game forever. There is a Punjabi saying that captures this – " the wise man sits on his own shit".

    2. Anjem Chaudhary was in jail in the past as well. I don’t know why hw was released. The best option is to put him in isolation in a far off island
