In this episode on India, Russia and the World, Kashmiri member of the Indian parliament and Shia cleric Aga Syed Ruhullah Mehdi explains the reasons for the deep connection Kashmiri Muslims share with Iran. He holds the British responsible for creating the political divide between Shia and Sunni Muslims in the Gulf nations. He calls out the West for looking at Muslims only through the narrow lens of their women’s clothes and terrorist outfits like the Al-Qaeda and ISIS, and using that as a pretext for demonizing them.
