Israel India RSS Shalom Bollywood Joint Venture Update:

Benjamin Netanyahu praised Bollywood stars and said that who is greater than these stars? But the question is, why Israel loves so much with Indian film industry and what Israel wants from Bollywood? Israel India RSS Shalom Bollywood Joint Venture.

Israeli prime minister visited India in January 2018 to celebrate 24 years of diplomatic relations between India and Israel and to make this visit memorable. Rather than traditional style, Narendra Modi personally received the Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu on airport. The delegation of one hundred and thirty business persons were also with Israeli prime minister. Israel India RSS Shalom Bollywood Joint Venture.

The main and important visit of Israeli prime minister is the visit of Mumbai, where he arranged the important program named "Shalom Bollywood" at hotel Taj Mahal. This program was attended by Amitabh Bachchan, his son Abhishek Bachachan, Daughter-in-Law Aishwarya Rai, Director Subhash Ghai, Karan Johar, Imtiaz Ali and other famous celebrities. Israel India RSS Shalom Bollywood Joint Venture.

Israeli prime minister Netanyahu in his inaugurating speech firmly praised Bollywood celebrities and said that:

"Who is Greater than these Bollywood stars."

He added:

"The reason is that the world likes Bollywood, Israel also loves Bollywood and I personally loves Bollywood."

Bollywood celebrities including Amitabh Bachchan addressed in Shalom Bollywood show.

Nonetheless, Benjamin Netanyahu promised about the India Israel relationship till the end of this show. At the end of Shalom Bollywood program, Netanyahu said that:

"I am so much emotional regarding to India Israel relations therefore I want every Indian and Israeli citizen must know the remarkable friendship of both countries and for this I have an Idea that I want to take a Selfie with Bolllywood celebrities and producers just like Brad Pitte took a selfie in oscar award with important personalities so that millions of people of this world can see this friendship."

He took the selfie which became a headlines of Indian media. This is not a first time that Israel tried to divert attentions of Indian famous film industry Bollywood towards Israel. Before this visit of Israeli prime minister, Israel attempts several efforts to divert Bollywood attentions towards Israel, and for this purpose Israel published advertisement for the shooting of Bollywood movies in Israel. In December 2017, a delegation of film producers and film directors of Bollywood visited Israel.

Famous film director of Bollywood, Imtiaz Ali was also a part of that delegation. Bollywood delegation was invited by Israeli government and the visit of that delegation was arranged by the department of culture of Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs. During the visit of India Israeli prime minister told that he is trying to motivate Bollywood to shoot Indian movies in Israel and for this reason, Israel arranged special funds. Israel India RSS Shalom Bollywood Joint Venture.

Israeli prime minister during the visit of India told that, Bollywood can play vital role in establishing the cultural relationship with India. Netanyahu also told that, he promise if Bollywood comes to Israel, then Israel will financially help Bollywood. We want presence of Bollywood in Israel. The interesting thing was that those Bollywood film stars and film makers who arrived to attend the Shalom Bollywood show waited in a que for more than three hours equivalent to a Bollywood movie duration.

But the question is why Israel loves and takes too much interest in Indian film industry and what Israel want to gain from Bollywood?

In recent days the Israelil killings of Palestinian protesters, clears that Israel is not famous but it is unpleasant country due to its policies whether it is strong financially and defence point of view. Therefore Israel is searching for those paths which makes Israel famous in civilization and cultural level. Israel knows that Bollywood movies are famous from central and south Asia to middle east and Israel with the help of Bollywood movies wants to show the positive image to the world.

Today India is ruled by Hindu Nationalist Right Wing Party, Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and Netanyahu psychologically one step ahead from RSS, therefore the ideological alliance of both the country is logical. This is the best example of opportunity in politics to use every circumstances in your benefits. In past Indian film industry demonstrates the opportunity for financial benefits.

So it is a silent and gradually efforts to penetrate inside the enemy nation's civilization and culture. Movies or films plays important role in presenting the negative and positive image of any country or nation. Movies also plays an important role in trade therefore Israel wants benefits from movies.

During the Shalom Bollywood program in Mumbai's Taj Mahal hotel, Israel presented a video which showed the popular locations of Haifa, Eilat, Masada, Jerusalem and Tel Aviv where any one can shoot films. Israel also wants to publicize these places to promote tourism with the help of Bollywood movies.

In this program Netanyahu presented a souvenir to the famous Bollywood film producers, Karan Johar and Apurva Mehta for shooting film first time in Israel.

It is to be clear that one song of an upcoming movie of Karan Johar "Drive" shooted in Tel Aviv few months before.

Bollywood movie Drive was directed by Tarun Mansukhani. Sushant Singh and Jacqueline Fernandez are the top ranked actors worked in Drive. Bollywood movie Drive will release in September 2018. Below is the movie trailer of Bollywood movie Drive:

Now we have to wait and see that which next Bollywood director and producer shoot his/her maximum part of film in Israel and in which style.

Cold Start AF-Pak Fifth Generation War Doctrine Pakistan Facing Simultaneously

Cold Start AF-Pak Fifth Generation War Doctrine Update:

Cold Start AF-Pak Fifth Generation War Doctrine. Pakistan is that country which possess approximately 3,600 kilometers war active borders and unfortunately Pakistan is the biggest country of this world who is facing three dangerous war doctrines at a time and very few people knows about these war doctrines. Today we give the details of these three war doctrines. These war doctrines are:

• Cold Start Doctrine
• AF-Pak Doctrine
• 4th/5th Generation Doctrine.

Now we discuss these above war doctrines in detail.

Cold Start War Doctrine

Cold Start War Doctrine is based on Indian war strategy. For this purpose India had deployed 6 commands of Indian Army out of total 7 commands which is more than 80% of Indian Army. For this purpose of this doctrine, Indian Army doing exercises, they are building, roads, bridges, railway lines for the moment of Indian Army. They are also building big weapon depot for Cold Start Doctrine rapidly. Cold Start AF-Pak Fifth Generation War Doctrine.

The plan of India in this doctrine is to enter Pakistan rapidly from Sindh Province, (where India have a plus point of geographical depth) and move forward towards Gawadar (Balochistan) by cutting Sindh province from Pakistan, for this purpose India will take help locally from nationalist parties in Sindh and Balochistan. The real and big threat for Pakistan is from Cold Start Doctrine, and Pakistan Army is preparing its strategy by monitoring the moment of Indian Army following Cold Start Doctrine. Cold Start AF-Pak Fifth Generation War Doctrine.

You might heard about Pakistan Army Azm-e-Nau exercises which Pakistan conducts after few years on compulsory basis. This is an answer which is prepared by Pakistan for Indian Cold Start Doctrine against Indian aggression because the balance of Power is going against Pakistan. 2.5 lacs Pakistan Army will be available against 10 lacs minimum Indian Army and 2 lacs of Pakistan Army are facing AF-Pak war Doctrine and rest of Pakistani Army is deployed in Eastern borders. Cold Start AF-Pak Fifth Generation War Doctrine. 

AF-Pak War Doctrine

AF-Pak war doctrine is an anti Pakistan war strategy of Obama administration and now Donald Trump is continuing AF-Pak war doctrine against Pakistan. The strategy of AF-Pak war doctrine is to take Afghan war gradually inside Pakistan and to start gorilla war against Pakistan Army inside Pakistan. In reality AF-Pak is that war doctrine which engaged minimum 2 lacs Pakistani troops in the tribal area of Pakistan in the form of war and due to this doctrine Pakistan lost approximately 20,000 lives of Pakistani soldiers which is a high martyred rate comparing it from three wars which were fought between Pakistan and India. Cold Start AF-Pak Fifth Generation War Doctrine.

For AF-Pak war doctrine US and India have an operational collaboration and Israel is giving technical help to both these countries. In the light of AF-Pak war doctrine, we saw a sectarian violence between Shia and Sunni in Kurram Agency and Hangu city of Pakistan. This war doctrine penetrated religious groups in the name of Nifaaz-e-Shariah inside sawat valley of Pakistan. These groups made injustice and cruelness on the people of sawat valley. Therefore Pakistan Army entered in these areas to help people from the cruelness of AF-Pak war doctrine.

Pakistan Army have practically kicked off these groups with the help of different military operations like Rah-e-Haq, Rah-e-Rast, Rah-e-Nijat, Zarb-e-Azb, Operation Khyber 1, 2, 3 & 4 and ongoing military operation Radd-ul-Fasaad started by Pakistan Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa. But on ideology basis Pakistan army need full support form different parts of our society, which they are not getting and for this reason nation is not fully supporting our Pakistan Army as we saw in 1965 war. The reason of not getting full support from Pakistani nation to Pakistan Army is a third war doctrine called Fourth/Fifth Generation war doctrine.

Fourth/Fifth Generation War Doctrine

Fourth or Fifth Generation war doctrine is a very dangerous war strategy. Due to this war doctrine enemy creates distances between the army and a nation of any country with different styles. In this war strategy enemy weakens central government of a country by disturbing economical condition, producing provincialism and ethnicity. In the light of Fourth/Fifth Generation war doctrine enemy finance and ignite ethnic and sectarian violence inside any country, and produce disappointment and panic in a nation. In Fourth/Fifth Generation war doctrine enemy also finance the print and electronic media of a country and via that media enemy creates anarchy and uncertainty in the country.

With the help of Fourth/Fifth Generation war doctrine United States destroyed, Yugoslavia, Iraq and Libya, now this war doctrine is practically implemented on Syria, Pakistan and Afghanistan and unfortunately United States got success, specially Syria has completed destroyed.

In Fourth/Fifth Generation war doctrine United States, India and Israel are coalition partners against Pakistan. US former president Obama admitted that his administration will invest 50 million Dollars per year on Pakistani media and today nobody raise the question that which purpose this media investment came from United States? On the other hand we also see the Indian influence in Pakistani electronic media. Whole Pakistani nation is targeted by Fourth/Fifth Generation war doctrine. This is the only war which can not be answered by any army. Army have no capability to deal with this war doctrine. Due to this war doctrine Pakistan Army don't get any help from previous judiciary, civil government and media, therefore yet after giving up precious life of our Pakistan Army jawans, Pak Army can not repel this war or completely this war.

Now our honorable chief justice of Pakistani Supreme Court Mr. Mian Saqib Nisar took serious actions on public related issues and National Accountability Bureau (NAB) is working against Economic Terrorists which is an enemy's important weapon in Fourth/Fifth Generation war doctrine. Pakistan Army can only win this war doctrine if all the Pakistani Nation will give the answer of Fourth/Fifth Generation war doctrine with unity. Fourth/Fifth Generation war doctrine is basically a disinformation war and religious scholars, intellectuals and patriotic people related to electronic/print media can give the powerful answer of this disinformation war. But unfortunately yet no hope left from these people who can answer this war doctrine.

Now as a nation it is our responsibility to play active role in this war and help Pakistan Army in winning this dangerous Fourth/Fifth Generation War Doctrine. For this purpose you have to support your Pakistan Army, Ideology of Pakistan and Islam via your social media accounts. The answer of this war doctrine is simple. As a nation we must reject all those things which are attacking on Islam, Pakistan and Pakistan Army.

Indian Cold Start War Doctrine is depending on the success of AF-Pak and Fourth/Fifth Generation war doctrine.

Bollywood Movie Padmavati Fake Imaginary Character by Jayasi 1540 Against Muslim Ruler

Bollywood Movie Padmavati Fake Imaginary Character Update:

India from Pakistan lost two major wars (Kargil war and 1965 war) and before 1000 years, Hindus lost wars from Muslim rulers and Muslim rulers ruled sub-continent for 100 years. Now India want to win these previous wars in Bollywood movies. India is showcasing thru Bollywood Movies (which is the Indian Propaganda machine) that Indians won these wars from Muslim rulers.

Bollywood Movie Padmavati Fake Imaginary Character which was released on 25th January 2018 is also an ugly propaganda against a famous Muslim ruler, Alauddin Khilji.

When we read the story of Bollywood Movie Padmavati Fake Imaginary Character we were astonished that how Indians presented the history in distorted form. First we comes to the story of the film which is presented in film, and then we explain the reality and third we talk about the real history.

In this Bollywood Movie Padmavati Fake Imaginary Character, Muslim ruler Alauddin Khilji who ruled Khilji kingdom from 1296 to 1316 presented as a brutal and wrong doer. The film also showed that Alauddin Khilji was homosexual person and he has a wrong relationship with one of his Governor , Malik Kafur.

On the other hand Bollywood Movie Padmavati Fake Imaginary Character presented hindu rajput emperor Raja Ratan Sen as a brave emperor and showed Padmavati (Widow of Raja Ratan Sen) as a beautiful woman. Her beauty insprired Alauddin Khilji and in 1303 Alauddin attacked on Chittor Garh fort to get Padmavati. Raja Ratan Sen fought bravely with Alauddin Khilji but due to big army of Alauddin Khilji he did not survive and died.

After the death of Raja Ratansen, Rani Padmavati JAUHAR(Self-immolation) along with 16000 women of the fort and did not handover herself to Alauddin Khilji. This is a film story of Bollywood Movie Padmavati Fake Imaginary Character which presented a wrong history.

Now come to the real history which is too much different from the history which is presented in Padmavati movie. First Truth of History inform us that there was no character of Padmavati eixist. This character was an imagination of a poet whose name was Jayasi, who created Padmavati character in his book "Padmavat Mahakavya" which was written in 1540 AD in Awadhi language. The Muslim Mughal ruler in that era was King Akbar, who ruled sub-continent after 240 years of Alaudin Khilji. Bollywood Movie Padmavati Fake Imaginary Character.

Jayasi's Padmavat Mahakavya which was written in 1540 A.D and the attack by Alauddin Khalji in 1303 A.D (Gap 240 years i.e after 240 years he had written Padmavat ). So there is very less chances of all the data which is mentioned in book is exact. Even Jayasi's himself has confirmed this thing. Bollywood Movie Padmavati Fake Imaginary Character.
Padmavat is inspired by true events or fiction Jayasi himself wrote this as last line .

“I have made up the story and related it”

So Padmavati was fiction, fake and imaginary character according to the last line of Jayasi.
Second Truth of the history inform us that Hindu rajput King Raja Ratan Sen (who presented as a brave King in this movie) was a coward King. Before war, Alauddin Khilji sieged the fort of Chittor Garh in 1303 for 8 months, and when war started Raja Ratansen did not die but he ran away from the fort after defating badly, he also left his family behind him in the fort for securing himself from Alauddin Khilji. Bollywood Movie Padmavati Fake Imaginary Character.

Now come to the Third Truth of History. Hazrat Ameer Khusro Rahmat Ullah Alaih who was a creator of Urdu Language and a Disciple (Mureed) Of Sultan-e-Hind and a biggest sufi saint of Islamic world, Hazrat Nizamuddin Auliya Rahmatullah Alaih was a history writer in Khilji Kingdom (First Hazrat Ameer Khusro was a history writer of Khilji Kingdom and after he became Disciple of Hazrat Nizamuddin Auliya Rahmatullah Alaih).

Hazrat Ameer Khusro Rahmat Ullah Alaih was present when fort of Chittor Garh was occupied in 1303. When Hazrat Ameer Khusro Rahmat Ullah Alaih entered inside the fort of Chittor Garh with Alauddin Khilji he wrote in his book "Khazain-Ul-Futuh" that Alauddin Khilji forgave the family of Raja Ratansen, 30 thousand Rajput army soldiers were died during this fight. No character of Padmavati found in the book of Khazain-Ul-Futuh written by Hazrat Ameer Khusro Rahmat Ullah Alaih. Hazrat Ameer Khusro Rahmat Ullah Alaih also served the father in law of Alauddin Khilji as a history writer. In 1296 when Alauddin Khilji became the king then Hazrat Ameer Khusro Rahmat Ullah Alaih also started writing victories and history of Alauddin Khilji. Bollywood Movie Padmavati Fake Imaginary Character.

The fourth big Teality of History briefs that the reason of attacking fort of Chittor Garh was it was a stron hold of Rajput Hindus and Sultan Alauddin Khilji's Kingdom of Dehli felt some threats from this fort and Sultan Khilji wanted full control of Sub-Continent. Therefore he attacked the fort of Chittor Garh and not for imaginary Queen Pamavati, which was created by a fool poet after 240 years of Alauddin Khilji's Kingdom.

Sultan Aaluddin Khilji was a strong ruler of Sub-Continent after his uncle and father in law, Jalauddin Khilji. That was Alauding Khilji who badly defeated Mongolians at Jaran-Mnjur, a placed located on the banks of the Sutlej River in 1297-1298. This victory is also present in Wikipedia. 
Due to this historical defeat, Mongols did not approach towards Sub-Continent.

After this victory took numerous victories in Sub-Continent. In 1298 Sultan Khilji occupied Sivstan (also called Siwistan or Sibi This place can be identified with the north-western part of Sindh around modern Sehwan). In 1299 Alauddin Khilji captured Killi, a place located around 10 km from the suburbs of Dehli. In 1303, he captured Dehli and after that he got Fort of Chittor Garh and in 1304 he got Amroha and the list of his victory is too long.

Hindu Rajput were not so much brave probably they might forget the battle of Tarain in which Shahabuddin Ghori Rahmat Ullah Alaih badly defeated Prithvi Raj Chauhan in 1192. Hindu Rajput were Three lac in strenght and Shahabuddin Ghori leading with only One Lac Twenty Thousand Army. Today Pakistan have a Ghori Missile on the name of Shahabuddin Ghori and India have a Prithvi Missile on the name of Prithvi Raj Chauhan.

In India Rajput community, other Hindu casts and Muslims are protesting against Bollywood Movie Padmavati Fake Imaginary character, because this movie damaged the real history. In India Rajputs put 50 million as a head money for the director and heroine of the Padmavati movie. Indian media ia also shouting that Padmavati movie distorted the real history.

Indian RAW took the idea of movie and media propaganda from American terrorist agency CIA and Israeli intelligence agency Mossad. RAW is investing heavy amount in movie and media propaganda so that they can change the mind of people by lying, propaganda and fake movies. Hollywood and Israelis are also making fake movies against Muslims so the mind of innocent people can be changed. RAW funds those movies and directors which produces movies against Pakistan and Muslims. They are trying to damge two nation theory. The examples of such Bollywood movies are: Kargil, Boarder, Aik Tha Tiger, Tiger Zinda Hai, Bajrangi Bhai Jaan, L.O.C, Agent Vinod, Phantom, Haider and this list is very long. You can search in Google.

In today's world of information,this is called the Disinformation Warfare and this is the biggest weapon of enemy. Enemy change the mind of people specially youngsters by presenting lying and wrong information and Mehran Post is fighting against the disinformation warfare from couple of years on social media.

Innocent people say that this is only a movie, it is not a war but due to this war you can see that Indian culture is so much common in our society and specially in our children by watching these types of movies and Indian dramas.

ICC Champions Trophy 2017 Pakistan beats India in Final by 180 Runs

ICC Champions Trophy 2017 Pakistan beats India Update: Pakistan, at their most magnificent, swarmed all over India to win the Champions Trophy by 180 runs. 

ICC Champions Trophy 2017 Pakistan beats India. It was the same template as when they won their previous global one-day tournament, the 1992 World Cup, in that Pakistan were hopeless at the outset of this tournament, which they entered as the eighth-ranked ODI team, to be demolished by India in their opening qualifier. Yet, England in the semi-final and India in the final could not live with them.

 

ICC Champions Trophy 2017 Pakistan beats India. Having failed to reach 250 so far in this tournament, Pakistan posted 338 for four on the back of a dashing century by Fakhar Zaman, who slammed 114 off 106 balls, then bowled out India in only 30.3 overs on the back of Mohammad Amir’s opening spell. Again the importance of the opening partnership was illustrated to England, for whom it was the Achilles heel:

Read: ICC Cricket Champions Trophy 2017 Pakistan Beats England for Finals

ICC Champions Trophy 2017 Pakistan beats India. Pakistan had slumped to eighth partly because they had gone 35 ODIs without a century opening stand, but once the left-handed Fakhar was paired with the steady Test opener Azhar Ali, they launched Pakistan with 118 against England, and 128 off only 23 overs against India.

Pakistan’s coach Mickey Arthur said:

“I’ve had five semi-finals with South Africa and never got to a final."

He added:

“I got to one final with Pakistan and eventually got a medal, so that’s fantastic, but the credit goes to the players.”

India’s captain Virat Kohli generously admitted:

“They [Pakistan] made us make those mistakes because of the way they were bowling and the way they applied the pressure in the field as well, and we have no hesitations or shame to admit that we could not play our best game today.”

Pakistan’s cricket is often hailed as mysterious and inexplicable instead of being the product of its environment, which it naturally is. Their aspiring cricketers pick up a bat and grip it as they like, without coaches telling them to use their leading elbow, and bowlers cannot extract bounce out of grass less pitches, like concrete, so they move it sideways instead: hence batsmen like Fakhar with his strong bottom hand.

 
As for inconsistency, or “unpredictability”, it stems from an infrastructure, which is not well-resourced by comparison with India’s, England’s and Australia’s: hence Pakistan could field like drains against India in the qualifier, and like a dream in the final.

The century by Fakhar, whose name means “pride”, was not the best innings played in a global one-day final because there was so much playing and missing and top-edging if the ball was short. It was, however, the most audacious and he had much of which to be proud. Fakhar, 27, dared to reach for the stars – never having played a one-day international before last month – and in his four innings in this Champions Trophy, he scored 30, 51, 57 against England, and his 114 made him man of the match.

Pakistan captain Sarfraz Ahmed said:

"He hoped his side’s stunning 180-run Champions Trophy final win over arch-rivals India would be a catalyst for the full return of international cricket to his homeland."

Sarfaraz added:

“I hope this win will boost Pakistan cricket and hopefully all the (major) playing nations will come to Pakistan.”

This Champions Trophy went ahead as scheduled despite a terror attack at a pop concert in Manchester, northern England, on May 22 that killed 22 people. And it continued even after another deadly attack at London Bridge, barely two miles from The Oval on June 3 in which eight people died.

But after the victims were remembered with a minute’s silence by a capacity crowd, fans at The Oval were soon engrossed by an extraordinary match.
