The Biased International Media
Dear friends,
How many of you have heard about Taliban flogging a teenage girl at Swat? I hope many of you must have heard about this news. It was a sensational news in all forms of International media. If you have not heard about it, you just need to search it over the internet and you will find 1000's of news,discussions,videos about this incident. Click HERE to see the video in youtube.
All over the world , politicians came infront and started condemning this incident, Pakistan government decided to start investigation on this issue. Lots of people came infront saying that, this video was a fake video and done by enemies of Taliban. All over the media worldwide, it was a headline questioning the Islamic Laws(Sharia), how barbarian a religion can go in the name of justice, what kind of cruel religion it is. Indeed you and me, who watch this video and the news in various international channel are forced to think how cruel the religion Islam is?
Well I have some comments to make on media. Here is one more news which I happen to see today in NDTV and Headline's Today news channels. Its about an Andhra women being beaten up in public and later on she dies in the hospital. Click HERE to see the video and click HERE to read the NDTV news on it.Similar kind of incident as of Taliban flogging a girl.Both the incident saying that these girls had affairs and their characters not being good.This incident occurred last month, and if I ask you or any other person about this incident , i dont think many would be knowing about this, Infact the Indian political leaders may not be knowing of this Andhra incident, leave apart International politicians. I tried searching for this news over the internet and to my surprise very less information about this incident which is far more barbarious than Taliban issue. Well i just went into some of the well known news websites of India, but other than one or two news media, other famous media's never covered this issue, or this issue just went unnoticed as a daily local news.
Now here is the question. Why was this serious incident which happens in India,the country which is having strong presence worldwide went unnoticed by indian politicians and Indian media, leave apart International media. Anyways few of the media which did show up this news, why was it headlined as "A Mother's Cry" or "A Mobs Punishment". Why the religion of the attackers were not put under question here? Why?
Here is my view on this, Just because a powerful nation and its government along with its allies is against Islam and its rules, the whole of media turns against Islam and presents Islam as a religion of Terror(Though the fact is that Islam is a religion of Peace, Humanity and Mankind.). Ask any US or Europe citizen who is aware of international news, about the Taliban flogging issue, he will be able to explain how cruel the Taliban is and the Islamic law is. But if you ask him about the similar more barbarious incident that happens in India(Just like the one here about Andhra woman's death), he for most sure will not be aware of this. We cant blame him for that, as International media did not cover this issue as it has nothing to do with Islam or Islamic laws.
Why is this happening, why Islam and its followers are being on target every now and then by the government of many nations and hence of the International media. Don't you think if this Andhra incident had happened in Pakistan or Afghanistan or say Iraq, then I say with full guarantee that it would have been the BREAKING NEWS in almost all International news channels and all around the world people condemning the attack and questioning Islam and its laws.
Crime is crime, no matter which part of the world it occurs. People behind these crimes must be punished be brought behind the judiciary, rather than pointing your fingers against a specific religion, for you have got no right to say a religion preaches terror as all religions stands for Peace, humanity, mankind , love etc.
My request to all of you is, please wake up, understand how serious the situations are around you, how things are being put in-front of you and how you are made to hate a specific religion or a specific group. my request to all forms of media is go back to the basics of these religions and understand what they stand for, rather than just showing it down as terror group. Remember, by this you are hurting the faith of many out there. Stand for justice and not for those who are in powers. Remember, those who are in powers will never be in power forever, they will comedown as it is said in religious scriptures that, truth will prevail and falsehood is born to perish.
Share it with me your views on issues of this kind and the reaction of International media.
