ok, so your link is to a rightwing blog, which i don't buy, and adil
najam's article on excessive religiosity in the pak team which has
been discussed here before. but WHO FORCED YUSUF TO CONVERT? i did not
find that information. it seems you think if someone converts to islam
it must be under duress, and that such duress is on-going in the pak
cricket team. wonder why kaneria never converted.

pray tell us, who forces tendlya to touch bal thakre's feet and 'seek
his blessings' at the drop of a hat, or dravid touch the feet of the
rss bigwigs with cameras rolling? how do you react to robin utthappa
saying strange things like 'i had a talk with god before the game' or
sreesanth saying something like 'i ask god before every delivery what
to bowl'. the pakistan team has its own share of problems, and yes
mushtaq, aamir sohail and saeed anwar all became excessively devout,
but WHAT IS THEIR LINK WITH TERROR? i find it amazing that in the case
of pakistan cricketers, you are taking their long beards as proof of
terrorist links, which with the indians you are overlooking their
links with murderous outfits as if it was the most normal thing. shows
where you are coming from.

i am not sure why you think what ****v sena and rss do is not
terrorism. they are responsible for massacres of 1000s of your fellow
citizens. does it become terrorism only when hindus are killed? trying
to defend hindu fascism, xenophobia and ethnic cleansing does you no
good.

do try to keep the khakhi shorts well pressed and the trishul on the
ready.
