Of course it is about money. The BCCI has shown the cricketing world their might by throwing so much money into this extravaganza. Would you have a pathetic show for such a huge event instead? At the Beijing Olympics 2008, we all saw the might of China in their awesome show. Why this apathy towards your own country?
And their move to not take Pakistan cricketers is a good one. Someone, someday has to stand up and show that we have a backbone too. Indian media and entertainment business were single-handedly fueling Pakistan's economy by bringing their performers, singers comedians etc into India. Doesn't Pakistan have their own shows to make? Don't they need their own people there?
I am glad this move has come about, and if you notice, the gradual seclusion of all performers and artists of Pakistani origin has been going on for 2-3 years now. But is it 2-3 years too late?

Its not like they were given a choice and thats a bad thing.phoenix844884 said:
Agreed so maybe we should start by not allowing our local thugs to take us hostage as we face a bigger threat to ourselves by acceding to them than any foreigner could ever have had. If emotions run wild over hard thinking we will be the loser.phoenix844884 said:
My argument is on pure principle that thugs should not be able to influense corporate decisions.

I dont think Aussies should be banned.That way it may add to the situation more and there are lots of people left in Aus who wouldnt want these kind of controversy.

Damn right .. Ban the freaking Aussies or better yet call them here and beat the shit out of them .. The spineless Indian govt should drop some hints of their displeasure instead of just issuing some statements ..

Thackeray to judge if Aussies can play IPL
That headline says it all doesn't it.
63 years after 'independence' we still need permission of local taliban to decide who can play or not :lol:

Australian teen dies after being shot and raped in India | News.com.au
This happened in 2008 , i say the Indian team should be kicked out whenever they goto Australia .
Seeing the kind of discrimination(racial/ethnic/gender/caste) etc which happens in India , we really dont have a right to blame others .

Was this attack in india racially motivated ? On the other hand the attacks on indians are racially motivated ..manu1991 said:
r u trying to downplay the issue by comparing one incident that happened in india to numerous that have taken place in australia .
Forge the incidents do u realize the magnitude of mental aguish that indians in australia are plagued by .. Most of them are scared and returning back .. some of them cant cuz they have invested all they had to fullfil their australian dream ..
So please do not compare one such incident that has happened in india with the current scenario in Oz ..

Dear God, Why on Earth people are creating so many hate threads, over here, a tech forum of all the places? Did the forums of the respected news channel close down already?

Indian version of tolerance and co-existence can beat logic with it's hand tied behind it's back and eye's blind folded.
Do not let my reply irritate you. If it does then what does that mean?

I will not type a long reply because this thread will soon be deleted but does it matter whether attacks are racially motivated or not as long as they are attacks . There have been hundreds of cases of foreigners being ill treated in India . Why foreigners ? Do you even have a remote idea how dalits are treated in some areas even today ? Entire families are burnt in the name of caste . I have NOT made any comment on what happened in Australia , its magnitude , or is it right or wrong , I simply pointed out that we have to first have our own system in order before pointing fingers at others .

Australia didnt have a couple of wars with India and they dont fuel terrorism in India either...so whats ure point...
I fell sad for the guys who were at the wrong end of the stick in Oz, but please remember that such things are not promoted by the Government, its something that happens cause people are sick in the head.
So comparing state sponsored terrorism and local nutcases are two very different things. And as far as the SS and the MNS are concerned, the less said the better. They need and want any reason to make themselves heard.

Im 100% positive that neither do you :bleh:manu1991 said:
The closest a dalit gets towards racism is when people ask him where he is from? They don't ask him if he is a dalit? They ask him where he is from? That the "prevalent" version of racism in maharashtra and the south.
There's no need to exaggerate in an indian forum. Everyone is indian here. The case you point out exists in two states and not in entire india.manu1991 said:
