I have read both your responses related to my articles. You may be right in your assertion that the Mughal rule in India was unjust. I am no expert of the Sub-Continent history. The mughals were responsible for the decline of the Muslim empire in the world. Perhaps they did not follow the teachings of the religion and were too busy getting drunk and enjoying the worldly goods.

You sound like an inteligent man, tell me how many Muslims live in India? and how many episodes of religious violence and tension you have had during the last 100 years or during the Hindu rule? The answer to this is many. Please do not join these racist people in singling out muslims and trying to portray that it is only they who are bad when the honest answer is that they are afraid of the power and strenght of the Muslims and they are busy trying to crush this in Afghanistan, Iraq, Palestine, Syria and now Iran.

You must have noticed that I have not written any articles on this website for a long time. This hopefully is my last article here as I do not wish to contribute ...
