Arundhati Roy Quotes

It Isn't A Coincidence That The Massacre Of Muslims In Gujarat Happened After September 11. Gujarat Is Also One Place Where The Toxic Waste Of The World Trade Center Is Being Dumped Right Now. This Waste Is Being Dumped In Gujarat, And Then Taken Of To Ludhiana And Places Like That To Be Recycled. I Think It's Quite A Metaphor. The Demonization Of Muslims Has Also Been Given Legitimacy By The World's Superpower, By The Emperor Himself. We Are At A Stage Where Democracy - This Corrupted, Scandalous Version Of Democracy - Is The Problem. So Much Of What Politicians Do Is With An Eye On Elections. Wars Are Fought As Election Campaigns. In India, Muslims Are Killed As Part Of Election Campaigns. In 1984, After The Massacre Of Sikhs In Delhi, The Congress Party Won, Hands Down. We Must Ask Ourselves Very Serious Questions About This Particular Brand Of Democracy.
