भारतीय इतिहास के ६ स्वर्णिम पृष्ठ (वीर सावरकर - विदेशी आक्रान्ताओं पर विजय गाथा)

who unblushingly comes forward to deliver to them a sermon on the
exclusive right of the State to retaliate!
Had a Shivaji or a Ranjit Singh been at the head of the State, they could
have demanded with propriety that the people should leave the right of
retaliation in their hands alone. But when the puny Pandit tries to demand it
in the accents of Shivaji, it strikes as funny as it would do, if a pigmy
standing on his tiptoes tried to rival a giant in height.
Nevertheless, in all sincerity, I exhort once more my Hindu brethren in the
Congress and the cabinet to take a lesson, at least now, from past errors,
cease to be ideologues and join hands with Hindu Sanghatanists, to face
realities as revealed by the recent happenings. The stark realities in the main
are these:
(1) That the Moslems have tacitly declared a war on Hindusthan with a
view to transforming it altogether politically, religiously and culturally into
a Moslem-Sthan
(2) That intense preparations to invade Hindusthan with up-to-date arms
and air force are already afoot and with the help of the Pathans and
Baluchis across the Frontiers and perhaps under the lead of the Amir of
Afghanistan, they mean to open two extensive fronts in the main, one from
Kashmir to Junagad, both included, and the other in the South under the
command of the Nizam threatening the territory from Macchallipatam to
Goa on one side and C.P. and Berar on the other.
(3) That the Moslem, in India are bound to rise in revolt simultaneously
with this invasion from outside to sabotage and stab our state from within.
(4) That to forestall and counteract this Islamite peril, our State must raise
a mighty force exclusively constituted of Hindus alone, must open arms and
ammunition factories exclusively manned by the Hindus alone, and
mobilize everything on a war scale.
(5) That we should make it quite clear that the Moslem minority in
Hindusthan shall receive the same treatment for better or worse, in kind and
in scale, which the Hindu-Sikh minority receives at the hands of the
Moslem Government, in all respects such as representation, services and
even rights of citizenship.
(6) As in the very nature of things and on their own confessions neither
the Gandhistic ideology nor the pseudo-nationalistic ideology of the
Congress can ever cope with this Islamite offensive and as the Hindu
Sanghatanist ideology alone can and will be able to fight out this danger
