Remember....there are more Indians in Australia than Australians in India. Another flare up could prove devastating to our people in Australia. One can't be blamed for thinking that the Symonds-Harbhajan controversy has played a big role in fuelling hate against Indians in Australia. You reap what you sow. Its as simple as that.
A militant organization right or wrong have some values, priciples and work culture though you may not agree with it. Shiv Sena is a goon organization with no scruples other than hatred towards everything that is not them and have no ethics or principles or work culture. They are the ones who prevent Bombay from getting cleaned. They are keeping Mumbai like huge garbage drum, for all their ralks about owning Mumbai and saving it from "outsiders".
Why is this news getting more eyeballs compared to so many terror attacks in India in the past? Hello guys! Kasab is still eating food prepared from tax payers money.
At least someone in Aus is taking us indians seriously. Don't mind even if this is some kind of joke.
It was really funny when Australian media misrepresented Shiv Sena as a militant group but it is actually a legal political part yof India.
The Australian media also started its jingoism by mentioning the threat to its personal players. Shive Sena has only said that they will not allow Australian cricket team (Which is a nuisance anyways) play in India. This is not a security threat to their players unlike places like Pakistan or Togo where soorts players are actually attacked. Australian media was very quick in misrepreenting the facts for the misled xenophobic Australian readers.
Lastly majority of people in places like autralia is so ignorant of the current events of the world, that many still think that all of India is a poor developing country. They forget that India's population is 1000 million compared to Australia's 21 million (out of which 6 million are born overseas) and India has more than 21 million real rich people.
Can anyone please help me identify Australian consumer goods sold in India besides foster beer.

They do have some lovely blonde chicks coming over to dance in the IPL. OHHH Wait ! those were South African girls haha... I should have known that since anything aussie tends to be ugly.
I was watching the test match between Aus and Pak yesterday and just after the drinks break, the former Aussie wicketkeeper Ian Healy made a mocking comment about how Indians living in Australia WON'T vote for Ricky Ponting as the decade's best batsman. He also went on to say how Sachin was treated like a God and that Indians don't see present stats when considering who's the best.
Now what do you guys feel about such Aussie arrogance to say such a thing about Indians living in Aus ?

The Chappell brothers don't have any credibility anyway. Now I am not a Pakistan sympathizer BUT I do respect a sports person irrespective of their country. Ian Chappell was ignorant enough to say Kamran Akmal was WORSE than his 8 month old grand daughter. How dare he says that about a country's wicket keeper ?

What Ian said was right. Our Parthiv Patel and Dinesh Karthik are miles ahead of Kamran Akmal as far as wicket-keeping is concerned. Kamran is just a shabby player to say the least in all departments of the game. Nowhere would he have survived beyond 3 or 4 series with such a rubbish quality of keeping and also batting. He had managed to stay in the team for the past many years only because of his powerful connections within the PCB.
wtf is wrong with the asstralian ? indians are being slaughtered down under, religious symbols being razed to ground, and they feel there's nothing racial about it. and yet, this reaction now! just shows their arrogance.
Mr. Thackrey, where were u when Kasab and his goons attacked Mumbai city in the heat of the night ? where were you when your own gangsters harass other Indian citizens just cause they ain't marathi ? finally what's your credibility to the nation as a citizen ? you are loser and so are your fellow radical Marathi cronies who have a pea-eyed vision of being 'Indian'.
As far as the Aussies are concerned, they are a nation of hypocrites, convicts, prostitutes and criminals etc etc. Well most of them have at least one ancestor from one of those groups. What else can you expect from them ? We Indians are the most 'dependent' people on earth in spite of being independent since 1947. We live in most of the world's developed nations simply cause of the need for money - the root of all evil. Once we put down our feet there, we claim to be somebody we ARE NOT ! hence the repercussion against those Indian guys.

So when people from other countries insult Indians, do they show their barbarianism or civilization?

Our diverse culture, our multi regional languages, multi regional politics and finally our several million gods are our biggest weakness.
We indians can never be united for a common cause. Come on guys, it took us 350 plus years to earn our freedom.

Remember that Australia, technically, is still a colony of UK. The British monarch is technically the Head of Australia.

According to the Indian Constitution, Shiv Sena is a recognized political party. Australians are insulting the Indian Constitution by terming it as a Hindu Militant Group. It is termed as a Hindu Militant Group only by a section of people who do not see eye to eye with it.

Digging cricket pitches, attacking poor workers, burning cinema thetres, work of arts etc etc. Are they NOT MILLITANT. definitely YES. When Mumbai was attacked where was Mr Thackrey. He is bloody hypocrite who only knows the language of hatredness. God please forgive him.
One can see this complaining about Australia is a fiasco. the complainers are in cohoots with Sena. Now everyone can realise that there were no racial attacks in Oz. It shows there is no racist attacks in Australia.
