Juno News - North American “Khalistan” group glorifies child suicide bombers

00:00:00.000 Should activist groups operating in Canada be publicly glorifying child suicide bombings?

00:00:07.740 The Kalistani separatist movement Seeks for Justice did just that when promoting a referendum

00:00:13.860 question in Alberta. General Counsel for Seeks for Justice here, Gurpatwan Singh Panan, said the

00:00:22.020 group intends to ask the UN for the right for Sikhs in Punjab to take up armed resistance

00:00:27.480 against the Indian government due to the alleged assassination of Calistani separatists in Canada

00:00:33.700 and in the U.S. at the hands of the Indian state. For those who don't know, Juno News has covered

00:00:38.940 the Calistani movement a few times now, and they are essentially just a separatist group. They want

00:00:45.280 to carve out a portion of Punjab, and in some maps, even more than that, more provinces out of

00:00:51.560 what is now India. What's interesting though is at the bottom of this tweet here by Seeks for

00:00:57.920 Justice, it says the question is dedicated to an eight-year-old girl and a six-year-old girl

00:01:03.480 who tied grenades to their bodies to blow up Indian tanks during the 1984 attack on Darbar

00:01:10.320 Sahib. What's weird is that this narrative seems to only be coming up in Kalistani activist circles

00:01:17.600 and the child suicide bombings doesn't seem to be an incident corroborated by any other source.

00:01:24.880 The real question is, however, why is a group operating in Canada and the U.S. as a foreign

00:01:30.260 separatist movement glorifying child soldier suicide bombers regardless of if the incident

00:01:36.680 has happened or not? If you want to read more, learn more about the story, read more about it
