She is known for her leftist politics, having written strident criticisms of American and Israeli foreign policy. She has recently expressed enthusiastic support for Islamic terrorist Mohammad Afzal, who was part of a brutal terrorist attack on the Parliament of India, and who presently stands ready to be hanged for his actions. Roy has evoked numerous Indophobic canards in her support for terrorists (India is among the most heavily targeted countries by Islamic terrorist groups), as evidenced by her diatribes in the English newspaper ''The Guardian'' <ref>[http://www.guardian.co.uk/india/story/0,,1972788,00.html India's shame], Arundhati Roy, ''The Guardian'', December 15, 2006. </ref>  Her polemics have earned her significant criticisms from conservative groups in India[http://www.hindustantimes.com/news/181_1830995,0008.htm] and in the United States[http://www.tnr.com/doc.mhtml?i=20020429&s=buruma042902].

Roy bolsters the propaganda disseminated by numerous Islamist groups and makes paranoid conspiracist allegations against India in Afzal's favor.
