  • Ms. Roy is a Beautiful, smart and insightful Person. Her works should be required reading for all Elected Officials.

  • Kamsanjo, she doesn't support people who were responsible for 9/11 etc but she condemns the actions of the US govt which illegally occupies a country that had no wmds in the first place and then kills its people in the name of fighting terrorism.

  • @kamsanjo: exactly!!! She stands against the Governments when they try to fight back the extremists, let it be the US government fighting the Taliban or the Indian government fighting the maoists. Why doesnt she talk about the violence started by the terrorists.

  • She believes in communism, and I have heard her 'inspiring' speeches in support of maoists. After doing considerable research, I found that she supports over turning the current Indian State, eliminating capitalism and bringing communism and socialism. She mentions that the poor doesn't have resources to start his own company, or fight an election in India. I want to ask her whether even media has that right in communist China? Many politicians and businessmen have grown from ashes in India

  • she is not against any people but mainly big corporations and corporate globalization influencing government policies of many developing nations in asia and africa.For me she impersonates the character of rachel wiesz in the movie 'The Constant Gardener' .If you think U.S.A is synonymous of corporate companies may be she is against it.

  • Thank you for posting this discussion.

    A fundamental - and tragic - truth persists: Most of us are oblivious to the brutal reality of American bombing campaigns, the dismembered children, the innocent families literally blown apart, and so on.

    Please note: Our wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have killed several hundred thousand civilians. That's at least one "9/11" every week for the past 5 or 6 years.

    The result: Much, much more terrorism...and an unbelievable amount of dead children.

  • Why does she is oblivious of human rights of those innocents who were killed by these terrorists. But she appreciate and encourage dreaded criminal/terrorists who have nothing to do with humanity. This puts her even at top most ladder of criminality which is tantmount to accomplicing and executing genocides. She is a pseudo it is more than just for project herself and publicity.

  • Good vedio...
