Far too easy, if he or she has Western backing. All he or she has to
do is to write some prejudiced article in the English language, and
that will be picked up approvingly by the media, academia,
politicians, etc. - all thoroughly anti-Hindu: who are, or strongly
influence, the decision makers affecting the destiny of 500 million
lives.
What we are finding here, is a classic example.
