"[I]n 2002 the Indian Development and Relief Fund (IDRF), an apolitical Hindu charity run by the nicest of Hindu Americans, became the target of a damaging smear campaign by US-based Indian Communists, the “Campaign to Stop Funding Hate”. It was enough to point out the RSS links to some of the projects that were being supported by them, and then to add – what else? – Golwalkar’s “race pride” quote, and numerous academics and reputable Non-Resident Indians were found who were willing to sign a petition aiming to cut off corporate philanthropy to the IDRF. Moreover, imagine that you are an American managing a company or leading an institution and you receive this letter cautioning you against this IDRF, which has been made a beneficiary of your philanthropy budget at the suggestion of a Hindu employee. Obviously, your confidence in this particular Hindu will be shaken, considering his “fascist” connections, no less, and his abuse of your confidence by making you unwittingly support this fascist charity. This may even have an impact on his employment status and promotion chances. So, RSS carelessness with fighting off all the Nazi-mongering libel has damaged not just the IDRF and all the people benefiting from its work, but also every other Hindu connected to it in any way."
