Great Article

Really exposed the fake victorain unspoken rule of morality which i believe damaged the reality of warfare it was very apparent in kharku saheed times aswell and continues to hurt the concept of modern sikh's warfare

This is great. Obviously only Khalsa can judge the ROE! That's one of the meanings of raj

Great article. Pretty incisive in its approach. I remember reading in Ganda Singh's Gur Sobha how Guru Gobind Singh Ji razed the village of Alsoon to the ground. The Khalsa ROE is different to the modernist interpretations we give it. It's more akin to the Alexandrian and Roman versions. I have DM'ed you with a slight proposal. Please check it out when you have the time. I am in touch with an important Canadian Punjabi media personality who wants to do an episode with you on the amount of Sunni fanatics finding a home in Punjabi.

Luttrell's character assassination happened under the Democrats who have always pushed for the most idiotic of laws constraining warfare. A grainy video supposedly is the best evidence when it shows no such thing as Luttrell fleeing.

Regarding other soldiers turning on one of their own, look at what happened with Captain Roger Hill and Sergeant Tom Scott of Dog Company, 1-506th Airborne (if memory serves me right). Their own fellow soldiers and battalion commanders gave false testimony to throw them under the bus for their Colonel's failings. This was later proven by Hill's military lawyers but the US Army still forced them and their supporters to resign.

But yes, people will always have their own views. Some obviously more negative than others just because they are opposed to your work. That said, brilliant article. Really clears up the whole matter as it is. Sherman inflicted damage on the South's civilian population to demoralize it's Army. Sikhs did similar minus rapine.

Like that white guy said on your podcast, the Nuremberg liberal laws however will hold all historic Sikh figures to be criminals just for slaying an enemy that didn't want to stop without giving them a fair trial.

And as for the Karminder Dhillon-Dilgeer gang with their eternal cope out of Vedic Nirmala Sikhi and deriding Sant Jarnail Singh, have they provided the original non-Gurmukhi manuscripts of the Valmiki and Tulsi Das Ramayan they so aggressively swear to have been the original source for the Panthic Ardas or are they still relying on a Nirmala translation plagiarizing off Ardas and Gurbani that was created in the 20th century?

The Democrats did not assassinate Luttrell's character. Nor did they write the ROE. That's something straight outta Fox News. ROE are created at the military level. Bi-partisan committees lazily oversee them.

FYI George W Bush, a Republican, was president when Operation Redwings happened.

Luttrell assassinated his own character by writing grandiose lies in his book. Chris Kyle and Tim Kennedy are others who have done similar. What they all have in common is being conservative idiots, who blame everything on "liberals". Liberals are stupid on many things, but so are conservatives.

The US military force that investigated the area of the ambush found no evidence of a 200+ sized Taliban force, let alone a 50+ sized force. They found no evidence of killed Taliban personel. Hell, the village that rescued Luttrell barely had 200 people.

Gulab, who rescued Luttrell, called his story a lie. Gulab's version of events, the grainy video the Taliban recorded, in addition to the testimony by the US soldiers who went to the site of the ambush conclude that Luttrell is full of shit.

Karminder Dhillon and Dilgeer are idiots. But, Jarnail Singh was a vegetarian Nirmala in his belief system. Even Amarjeet believes that. If you don't believe me just ask him.

I agree Lutrell's story is nonsense. The Navy Seals were not killed because they spared the herders. They were screwed the moment the Taliban and village heard their helicopter dropping them off.

That being said, Amarjeet's goal was to convey how Sikhs must show no mercy to their enemies, especially non-Sikh civilians during war.

I just wish he would stop using sophisticated word salad to conceal his true beliefs, which is that Sikhs must kill non-Sikhs. I would not object to this, but I realize Sikhs would not succeed in this goal. We are heavily outnumbered by the other faiths and lack superior logistics and weapons.

Our only hope would be if we could, without coercion, convert people on mass to authentic Sikhi. Unfortunately, Jarnail Singh and the Taksal turned authentic Sikh theology into Nirmala theology

This is the main weakness of Amarjeet. He hasn't made any content where he concisely and effectively explains why Sikhi is superior to Christianity, which is still the world's most popular religion.

Veer, you do realise the fact that Christianity is the most slandered and disregarded religion in the west AFTER Islam? The growing population of Christians is predominantly in the third word nations in Africa and South Asia. The only church that has still prevailed in its influence is the Orthodox Church in Eastern Europe despite Marxism-Leninists trying their best to get rid of it. I’m not going to go into why majority of the people haven’t left it, although the most recent debate on it’s reason is on the fear of nihilistic materialism and depression rates in Western Europe and specifically Atlanticist regions that have alarmed them.

Now on sikh community, the decline in influence of sikhi is more on Shiromani Akali dal and SGPC than on AKJ, Taksal or other sampardas. With the budget of SGPC alone Punjab could be completely sikh if they intended to, if you are ignorant of the well known neech means of converting Punjabis to Christianity then there’s no point in discussing the decline of sikhi and rise of Christianity in Punjab.

Unlike other communities and nations, talking about the population of Sikhs is reasonable under index terms but practically on basis of Historic events and shifts its can be assessed that Sikhs despite their population have far greater effect than their respective antagonists.

When 2 sides engage in war it’s not just about crushing the enemy but even non-combatants that have supported their hierarchal superiors, of course not completely but a few to set an example and a military way of conveying a message. Now you might counter that by saying that that could be justified on sikh civilians that fell victim to the ghallugharas as well. Which is not right in the context of honour and ethics, as the afghan side has been the hostile side and the Sikh misls the resistance for self-preservation and settings scores equally.

Anyone who brings up the Christianity is world's most popular religion point is usually a crypto Christian themselves.
