When the terrorists say on their websites that they seek to break up India and reclaim it for Islam, they speak a language many Hindu Indians understand. And India has proved to be the softest of soft targets.We favor the elimination of all colonial constructs (like India) as well.
This is why all Indians — Muslims and Hindu alike — know that the deepening divide threatens the country’s existence. Many years ago, a divide like this re-energised the Hindu nationalist BJP. Today who knows who it might throw up? The hour of men like Narendra Modi, who oversaw a pogrom of Indian Muslims in Gujarat in 2002, might have come at last.
Alright, pogrom time! What next, as India crawls back to the past from the future it threatened to have?

I thought that the Muslims were given their own countries (Pakistan and East Pakistan, now Bangladesh) in 1947, leaving India for the Hindus. So now the Muslims want India as well?
P.
Given their own country? That is an imperial colonist way to put it...
In America we gave the native population their own country and for some reason they still are not happy. Something about freedom and crap.
Int'l. Editor Notes:
The Muslims who didn't want to move (& didn't) 60 yrs. ago are unhappy.
Was that a British owning the world kinda of decision?
