The video discusses the film "The Kerala Story," which claims to expose a secret plot to forcefully convert women in Kerala to Islam and send them to ISIS. The video argues that the film uses propaganda techniques such as the "Big Lie" and "Repetition" to manipulate viewers.
The film's director, Sudipto Sen, cites incidents from the past, such as statements by former Chief Ministers of Kerala, Oommen Chandy and V.S. Achuthanandan, and a case involving a girl named Fatima who claims to be imprisoned in Afghanistan's jail. However, the video counters these claims, pointing out inconsistencies and lack of evidence.
The video also highlights the case of four women from Kerala who joined ISIS, but these women were not coerced or radicalized. They were already Muslims or had converted to Islam from Christianity. The video suggests that these women were brainwashed, but the film's portrayal of them as helpless and innocent is not supported by real-life videos of the women.
The video argues that the film exaggerates the number of women allegedly converted and sent to ISIS, claiming it to be 32,000. It points out that only three women's cases are known in real life, and these women were not coerced or radicalized. The film's claim is compared to the "Big Lie" propaganda technique used by Adolf Hitler.
The video also discusses the low number of ISIS recruits from India compared to other countries, despite India having the third-largest Muslim population in the world. It attributes this to the effectiveness of Indian agencies in countering extremism, India's syncretic culture and tradition, and the role of Muslim clerics in promoting peace and unity.
In conclusion, the video argues that the film "The Kerala Story" uses propaganda and exaggeration to defame Kerala and its Muslim community. It calls for viewers to question the film's claims and to be aware of the propaganda techniques used in it.
