From demanding RSS be declared a terrorist organisation to demanding a Bharat Ratna for a VHPite - his #GharWapsi from the seclib cult is so complete. ๐Ÿ˜‚

The cause he was banking on to launch his big political move, is gone. He just couldnโ€™t get that moment to strike when NaMoโ€™s popularity would have dropped. NaMo wonโ€™t make him a minister. Trying to make amends with the RSS in hope that they ask NaMo to let bygones be? ๐Ÿ˜‚

Another thread worth a read; based on an article by the Twitter Hindu Hriday Samrat. https://twitter.com/semubhatt/status/674558123487563776?s=21
This is new. Unsigned letter of the Twitter Hindu Hriday Samrat. Written to Syed Shahabuddin on Valentine's day 1987. Requesting Syed to convince Muslims to 'sacrifice of the Babri Masjid complex', & in return Hriday Samrat would fight against injustices heaped on Muslims. ๐Ÿ˜
I have no idea if this letter indeed existed or not. Hence, screenshots of the tweets (from Swamy fans, I assume).

Shahbuddin interview
https://www.news18.com/news/india/the-babri-masjid-issue-is-not-religious-it-is-legal-syed-shahabuddin-525492.html
Shahbuddin indeed said that he'd demolish Babri if evidence of temple found, but when temple existence was proven (Swamy agrees) & one of the archaeologists was a Muslim who stood by the findings, Shahbuddin dint accept it. So he nvr meant demolition part. https://twitter.com/semubhatt/status/1296527338025304064?s=19
Irrespective of what he claimed,
1) Shahbuddin had positioned himself as the champion of (conservative) Muslim cause & anything against Babri was political suicide.
2) He played a part in overturning Shahbano judgment, he wd have respected Babri verdict? https://twitter.com/semubhatt/status/1296525118336675840?s=19
Swamy isn't naive to not know that Shahbuddin never meant what he claimed, as even after archaeological findings & HC judgment, he was still denying temple existence. Yet, Swamy mentions Shahbuddin, to show that Swamy has championed RJB cause for long. https://twitter.com/semubhatt/status/1296532028775518210?s=19
Post Babri demolition, Swamy said there was no evidence that Rama was born at the then disputed site. So, he was writing letters & trying settlement for RJB fm '87 to '91, then switched to opposing it post Babri demolition & now back to championing it? ๐Ÿ™„ https://twitter.com/semubhatt/status/1193196624568365058?s=19

Jan 2000: A must read article by Swamy on evil RSS. I have plugged it above, but the article link has changed. Read it; then source whatever stuff he was smoking when he wrote it. Coz only if you smoke it, you can accept that this man could now favour RSS. https://frontline.thehindu.com/other/article30253256.ece
The RSS game plan

A disillusioned and dispirited RSS has set the ball rolling for mid-term general elections in which it hopes that the BJP will gain an absolute majority and implement the Hindutva agenda. SUBRAM

https://frontline.thehindu.com/other/article30253256.ece
In 2000, Swamy was happy that the bhagwa dhwaj doesn't flutter from the Red Fort. That his tea party had almost put RSS goal - of Hindu rashtra as per Swamy (bhagwa dhwaj on Red Fort is symbolism for that) out of its reach.

As per Swamy, RSS had planned to replace Parliament with,
๐†๐ฎ๐ซ๐ฎ ๐’๐š๐›๐ก๐š of 'sadhus & sanyasis (read VHP activists)',
๐‹๐จ๐ค ๐’๐š๐›๐ก๐š of 'school teachers',
๐‘๐š๐ค๐ฌ๐ก๐š ๐’๐š๐›๐ก๐š of serving/retd soldiers 'who can decide when to declare Emergency'.

Told ya, potent stuff.
Awww...Swamy was the original anti EVM guy. He knew BJP was rigging EVMs since 2000. Never mind the electoral defeats in between. Wonder why nobody gives him the credit for this.
Hindutva justice as per Swamy's article:
'the minorities can best look forward to liberation through mercy killing.'
'for the wily and cautious RSS. Christians are an easy target because there are no Christian terrorists to retaliate.'
Swamy on RSS plan (2000): 'India would be, it seems, converted into a state which is a cross between the Taliban and the Vatican.'
RSS is 'our counter-culture. The vibrations of Mother India will, I hope, be its undoing.'
Has Swamy cozied up with RSS to bring about its 'undoing'?

In recent years, Swamy has painted himself more bhagwa than RSS+VHP, in the biggest of all u-turns in Indian politics. I wonder if he now endorses 'RSS plan' of President nominating sadhus to the Parliament, err Guru Sabha. ๐Ÿ˜Ž https://twitter.com/semubhatt/status/1299767937650184192?s=19
After his Medina speech https://twitter.com/semubhatt/status/1193199423167311873?s=19 & the Frontline article, https://twitter.com/semubhatt/status/1299760116187586560?s=19 , & the other stuff mentioned in this thread, if you still think of him as your ideological warrior, there's no hope for you. IMO, RW should simply use him, like he is using them.
Why would a crusader against corruption/Hindu icon file a PIL challenging suspension of CSK/RR? https://twitter.com/semubhatt/status/689758151818670080?s=19
Also, his statements wrt Sasikala. https://twitter.com/semubhatt/status/1299774982692634624?s=19
This too. It was only fair that he would disclose his political association with Vijay Mallya while commenting on the matter. Or targeting CBI or Adhia or AJ over this case. https://twitter.com/semubhatt/status/1133649963198615552?s=19

April 2013:
"From what I know of Rajiv Gandhi as a friend and minister, he did not look like someone who was corrupt...He struck me as a person who had made accommodation to his family and friends."
So, Swamy thinks such "accommodation" isn't corruption?๐Ÿค”

I forgot to mention Sasikala in the list. I have nothing but respect for his ability to position himself as a crusader against corruption despite all these. To me, the battles he had/has picked look more like having stemmed from personal issues with those ppl than a crusade.

TBH, his daughter's marriage/faith is none of my business & I wouldn't have commented too. But I couldn't stand the hypocrisy & patronising tone wrt Hindu women when he has evidently not preached that enough to his own daughter. https://twitter.com/semubhatt/status/1260969579272077312?s=19
Swamy identified a void, and he filled it. Or someone identified the void, and chose him to fill it. Either way, he did it brilliantly. It isn't easy to take ideological u-turns, and get accepted as an ideological warrior. Or pass off personal battles as corruption crusades. ๐Ÿ™Œ
