"On June 23, 1985, the bombing of Air India Flight 182 killed 329 people, most of them Canadians. Today this pivotal event in Canada's history is hazily remembered, yet certain interests have shaped how the tragedy is woven into public memory, and even exploited to advance a pernicious national narrative. Remembering Air India insists that we "remember Air India otherwise." This collection investigates the Air India bombing and its implications for current debates about racism, terrorism, and citizenship. Drawing together academic analysis, testimony, visual arts, and creative writing, this innovative volume tenders a new public record of the bombing, one that shows how important creative responses are for deepening our understanding of the event and its aftermath."--
Accepted version ; This paper critically analyzes Canadian filmmaker Sturla Gunnarsson's documentary Air India 182 in light of recent official efforts to remember and redress the 1985 Air India bombings. The author argues that the film, in line with official efforts, constructs a narrative of the bombings through a "war on terror" framing of remembrance that is at once specific to the recircuitries of race produced in the anxious aftermath of 9/11, and consistent with historically rooted operations of xenophobia and colonial power. The significance of such a framing is that it works not only to shape memory of the bombings as a certain kind of event (one with unambiguous perpetrators, victims and damages), it narrows the field of what are imagined as possible actions toward redressing or compensating for its losses. In other words, a war-on-terror framing of remembrance, as a discursive strategy or approach to "remembering" the bombings, limits the potential for a complex understanding of the politics out of which this event arose, restricting public debate over the kinds of responses that continue to be generated in its aftermath. Moreover, a war-on-terror framing of remembrance is understood here to employ neoliberal and settler-colonialist discourses of productive futurity and multicultural tolerance to make remembrance of the bombings concomitant with the construction of turbaned Sikhs and other racially and religiously minoritized citizens as "dangerous internal foreigners." As such, this paper bears implications beyond the documentary film, including the consequences of neoliberalism for the formation of public memory and for the making of race and nation in Canada. / Cet article analyse de façon critique le documentaire Air India 182 du cinéaste canadien Sturla Gunnarsson à la lumière des récents efforts officiels de commémorer et de réparer l'attentat à la bombe du vol d'Air India en 1985. L'auteur soutient que le film, en accord avec les efforts officiels, élabore un récit des attentats par le biais d'un cadre de commémoration emprunté à la « guerre contre la terreur, » qui est à la fois propre aux redéfinitions de la race suscitées par l'angoisse à la suite de 9/11, et conforme aux opérations de xénophobie et de puissance coloniale historiques. L'importance d'un tel cadre est qu'il fonctionne non seulement pour façonner le souvenir des attentats comme un certain type d'évènement (dont il n'y a aucune ambigüité quant aux auteurs, victimes et indemnités), mais il restreint le champ de ce que l'on imagine comme des actions possibles visant la réparation ou la compensation pour ces pertes. Autrement dit, en empruntant le cadre de commémoration de la « guerre contre la terreur », en tant que stratégie discursive ou approche à la « remémoration » des attentats à la bombe, on limite le potentiel pour une compréhension approfondie de la politique de laquelle cet événement a émané, restreignant le débat public sur les types de réponses qu'il continue à susciter. De plus, le cadre « guerre contre la terreur » de la commémoration est entendu ici comme employant des discours d'avenir productif et de tolérance multiculturelle appartenant au néolibéralisme et à la colonie de peuplements pour rendre la commémoration des attentats concomitante avec la construction du Sikh à turban et d'autres citoyens minoritisés aux niveaux racial et religieux en tant que des « étrangers internes dangereux. » Comme tel, la portée de cet article va au-delà du documentaire, incluant les conséquences du néolibéralisme pour la formation de la mémoire publique ainsi que l'élaboration de la race et la nation au Canada. ; "Funding from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada has also made research for this article possible." ; https://utpjournals.press/doi/10.3138/topia.27.253

This paper engages with the politics of remembering and forgetting that surround the unsettled history of the 1985 Air India bombings. In particular, I use the concepts Nachträglichkeit and "affective recircuitry" to describe the way in which the bombings have been problematically and retroactively framed through a post-9/11 "war on terror" lens in recent, public recollections of this traumatic past. Examples are drawn from the federal Commission of Inquiry into the Investigation of the Bombing of Air India 182, as well as from public memorial sites and ceremonies dedicated to those killed in the bombings. The paper also centres on a reading of Eisha Majara's new photomontage series Remember Me Nought to consider how artistic commemorations might contribute to a critical counterpublic in response to the injustices that continue to manifest in the ongoing aftermath of this mass violence. ; https://public.journals.yorku.ca/index.php/public/article/view/32063 ; Postprint version

International terrorism has a history of targeting airliners and airports. The deadliest-ever single act of terror against civil aviation was the 1985 bombing by Sikh terrorists of Air India Flight 182 from Toronto over the Irish coast, with a loss of 329 passengers and 22 crew members. Since the 1990s, civil aviation has emerged as a principal target for various militant Islamist groups. Certain foreign governments, among them the Islamic Republic of Iran, are known to deploy client terrorist groups, like Hizbullah, for terrorist operations against countries toward which they are hostile. State=sponsored terrorism was responsible for the 1988 bombing of Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, with the loss of 259 lives, for which a Libyan intelligence officer was subsequently convicted but subsequently released before completing his jail term.

The first thing to learn about any incident or accident involving airplanes is "wait." The initial reports never have it quite right. This was true about KAL Flight 007, about Pan Am Flight 103, about the bombing of Tripoli and Bengazi, and about Iran Air Flight 655.
