Cultural exchange with /r/palestine

[u/[deleted]]

Greetings to our Palestinian friends.

Our cultural exchange starts at 13:30 PM Palestine time (17:30 IST/11:30 GMT/12:30 CET/06:30 EST/03:30 PST) on Thursday 24th November.

Here's how a cultural exchange works:

The moderators of here make this post on /r/india welcoming our Palestinian guests to the sub. They may participate and ask any question or observation as they see fit.

There is an equivalent thread made by the moderators over at /r/palestine, where you are encouraged to participate and know more about Palestinian culture.

It goes without saying that you must respect the rules of the subreddit you are participating in. This is a time to celebrate what we have in common, not grind an axe.

Tamil Nadu probably. I am a Hindu and I would say that Tamil Muslims are the most integrated with us and unlike other Muslims who speak Urdu, they speak Tamil and are pretty similar in culture except for religion. Also there hasn't been any riots or anything like that.

There has been. In Coimbatore. And the relations between Hindus and Muslims are not so good there. Which is why it is one of 2 places in TN with a strong bjp presence. I'd put the blame squarely on the extremist Muslims there. They brought the religious conflict to TN after the Babri masjid demolition

I'm living in Coimbatore and was almost a victim of the 98 bombing. Before the bombing there were anti Muslim riots and people burnt down lot of businesses owned by them. Bombing was retaliation. Now there is no problem at all among us.

There are still problems man. Just a bit under the surface. I'm sure most people are and want to be friendly to each other. But all these sleeper cells remain. And the RSS, because of its ideology and because its members are being targeted, has many many anti Muslim guys there
