Tauba Tauba Maulana-II

For some time, two unrelated issues have been vociferously agitating my less-than-morbid mind: hypocrites and graveyards. Can you delve deep into their relationship, if any? There was, rather is a Maulana. He was appointed office secretary of a certain All India Muslim Organisation.

For some time, two unrelated issues have been vociferously agitating my less-than-morbid mind: hypocrites and graveyards. Can you delve deep into their relationship, if any?
There was, rather is a Maulana. He was appointed office secretary of a certain All India Muslim Organisation. Failing to digest this somewhat insignificant designation, he appointed himself as Secretary. In this capacity, without consulting his seniors {read subordinates} agreed to fly to Ayodhya in a chartered plane, hired by the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP). As per understanding, soon after his arrival, he issued a hard-hitting statement, informing the plural nation: “The proposed Ramjanbhoomi would not cause any damage to the sanctum sanctorum of the Babri Masjid.” Dutifully doing the BJP job and issuing a statement purportedly by the office-bearer of an all-representative Muslim body, created an all-India outrage, reflected by the front page of the “Radiance” Weekly. The caption of the leading article was: “Tauba Tauba Maulana.” The readers were more appreciative of my caption than my scribbling.
Now Maulana Jameel Ilyasi has gone to Israel, a transplanted aberration, Israel which is a dagger in the Arab heart, Israel which continues to annex and occupy the Palestinian lands, Israel which has, since long, been endeavouring to dilapidate the Masjid El-Aqsa, Israel which enacted Beirut, Sabra and Chhatilla, Israel which has put Changhiz Khan, Holaku and Herr Hitler to shame, Israel which has an ambition to over-run Makkah and Madinah. The Maulana had the cheek and temerity to shake hands with the butchers of, not mentioning the aged and the infirm, innocent Arab boys and girls. He deserves the highest civilian award of Israel or Bharat for announcing “There is no war between Israel and the Islamic world.”
Why blame the poor Maulana, who had, not long ago, pleaded with Mr. P.V. Narasimha Rao for salaries for the Imams from the national Exchequer. To this request Mr. Rao had gladly agreed. The Maulana is a class by himself.
So happen to be some media persons. Quite surreptitiously, several Muslims journalists have been to Israel. Should I name them? I fear, besides Allah, the Editor also, who may charge me with letting out unsavoury secrets.
What is the proper place of hypocrites after their timely deaths? To the best of my poor knowledge and poorer information, they have not been denied their last resting place in the general graveyard. Would you mind if I dare advance revolutionary proposals here?
