Reader comment on item: Moshe Sharon Explains Middle Eastern Realities

Submitted by Arun (United States), Sep 24, 2006 at 13:20

"How many suicide bombers or battles of reconquest have there been in Sicily since 1091, in Spain since 1492, in Greece since 1821, or in India since 1867?"

Muhammad Ali Jinnah, the architect of Pakistan, was of the opinion that since the British had taken over from the Muslims, it should hand India back to the Muslims. He was also in favor of a plan where in the British could stay on in India indefinitely with Muslim support. - such is the testimony of Woodrow Wyatt, one of Jinnah's English supporters.
