Dehumanizing the "enemy" is very dangerous. Hitler and the Nazis dehumanized the Jews to make it easier to kill them...
I see where this is going. Your shilling for CNN, your underlying tone " India should be thankful...." and now this.
Pretty predictable.
next you would say india 'intolerant' , 'fascism', india conducting silent genocide, hindutva nazi, modi hitler rreeeeeee.

There are very few Indian members on American forums. I call them to grow some spine; remember struggle of your forefather who fought every invader to defend their self respect. Go and challenge those who have not spoken against this disrespectful reporting and mow them down without any guilt.

There was no media in 1776 yet USA was a perfectly fine democracy back then. Media doesn't improve society but society improves itself. The freedom movement of India wasn't because of media but because of people. But nowadays a single guideline by gov and all the sudden "democracy is in danger". Those that think they need constant media propaganda to keep democracy alive have no confidence in people nor in democracy.
Just one correction, newspapers existed in those days too. sensationalism & mudslinging campaigns was present in those days too. every once in a while it is mentioned in documentaries pertaining to american politics from those days.

USA killed more people than Nazis. infact USA was founded on genocide of Native Americans. They were dehumanised and labled "red Indians" by same people who are now self proclaimed champions of human rights.

Why go all that far back, same western media CNN, NYP, WAPO, dehumanised while USA army butchered prople in middle east, Cambodia, laos, Vietnam and many more places.

And you say Nazis were the bad guys. Yeah they are bad guys because they lost the war. Had Nazis won WW2 we would be reading history books about evil genocidal Americans who were librated by Human rights champions of the world and superpower Nazis.

World’s Biggest Holocaust – ‘Islamic Invaders’ killed more than 80 Million Hindus in India
By
Manish Sharma

October 20, 2020



What comes in your mind when your hear the word ‘Holocaust’?
Most of us will think immediately of the Jewish holocaust committed by Nazi Germany under the leadership of Adolf Hitler. Many of us are aware of such holocaust of the Native American peoples, millions of African lives lost during Slave trading, the genocide of the Armenian peoples in the Ottoman Empire.
However, we are sure that very few knows that World’s biggest holocaust did happen in India. You must be shocked or surprised, but this is indeed true.

Our Liberal and Secular cabal go gaga over Mughal rule and project it as a golden age of medieval India, however, the truth is that almost 800 years of Islamic rule has witnessed World’s biggest holocaust, where more than 80 Million Hindus were mercilessly massacred by various Islamic Rulers and Sultans. Hundreds of Millions were converted to Islam and several hundreds of millions of Hindu women were raped and turned into sex-slaves for life.
These atrocities were committed by Islamic invaders like Arab, Mughals, Turkish, and Afghan who came from Central Asia, Arab and plundered the ancient India, killed millions of people, destroyed the economy and then they became the darling of our biased historians, who never leave any opportunity to suppress their heinous acts and make them heroes of of society.
It all started with invasion of India by Mahmud Ghazni around 1000 A.D., that was an event which opened the flood gates of Islamic invaders into the Indian subcontinent and they lasted for more than 8 centuries. Ghazni was followed by Nadir Shah, who made a mountain of the skulls of the Delhi’s Hindus.
Babur raised towers of Hindu skulls at Khanua, where he defeated Rana Sanga in 1527, he replicated the same ‘Jihad’ practice when he captured the fort of Chanderi. His son and allegedly the ‘Greatest Mughal King’ Akbar did order a brutal massacre of more than 30,000 Rajput warriors when he captured Chittorgarh fort in 1568. Even the Bahamani Sultans had an annual ritual of killing a minimum of 100,000 Hindus, which was considered as Jihad.
The holocaust of the Hindus continued for 800 years. We will share some literary evidence by eminent writers and historians, which proves that World’s biggest holocaust did happen in India. Several historians and biographers have documented all these evil incidents and left quite detailed records of the atrocities these Islamic invaders committed.
Dr. Koenraad Elst wrote in his book “Negation in India”
“The Muslim conquests, down to the 16th century, were for the Hindus a pure struggle of life and death. Entire cities were burnt down and the populations massacred, with hundreds of thousands killed in every campaign, and similar numbers deported as slaves. Every new invader made (often literally) his hills of Hindus skulls. Thus, the conquest of Afghanistan in the year 1000 was followed by the annihilation of the Hindu population; the region is still called the Hindu Kush, i.e. Hindu slaughter.”
Dr. Koenraad Elst in his article “Was There an Islamic Genocide of Hindus?” which states:
“There is no official estimate of the total death toll of Hindus at the hands of Islam. A first glance at important testimonies by Muslim chroniclers suggests that, over 13 centuries and a territory as vast as the Subcontinent, Muslim Holy Warriors easily killed more Hindus than the 6 million of the Holocaust. Ferishtha lists several occasions when the Bahmani sultans in central India (1347-1528) killed a hundred thousand Hindus, which they set as a minimum goal whenever they felt like punishing the Hindus; and they were only a third-rank provincial dynasty.
He further added that “The biggest slaughters took place during the raids of Mahmud Ghaznavi (ca. 1000 CE); during the actual conquest of North India by Mohammed Ghori and his lieutenants (1192 ff.); and under the Delhi Sultanate (1206-1526).“
Indian Historian K.S. Lal gave detailed information in his book ‘Growth of Muslim Population in Medieval India (1000-1800)’
This book gives a detailed assessment of change in Indian demography between 1000 CE and 1500 CE. Lal concluded that the population of the Indian subcontinent in 1000 CE was around 200 million and in 1500 was about 170 million. Lal estimates that about 60 to 80 million people died in India between 1000 and 1525 as a result of the Islamic invasion of the Indian subcontinent. He also observed that more than 2 million Hindus died during Mahmud of Ghazni’s invasions of India alone.
American historian and writer Will Durant wrote in his 1935 book “The Story of Civilisation: Our Oriental Heritage” (page 459)
“The Mohammedan conquest of India is probably the bloodiest story in history. The Islamic historians and scholars have recorded with great glee and pride the slaughters of Hindus, forced conversions, abduction of Hindu women and children to slave markets, and the destruction of temples carried out by the warriors of Islam during 800 AD to 1700 AD. Millions of Hindus were converted to Islam by sword during this period.”
French historian Alain Danielou in his book, Histoire de l’ Inde wrote
“From the time Muslims started arriving, around 632 AD, the history of India becomes a long, monotonous series of murders, massacres, spoliations, and destructions. It is, as usual, in the name of ‘a holy war’ of their faith, of their sole God, that the barbarians have destroyed civilizations, wiped out entire races.”
Persian historian Wassaf writes in his book ‘Tazjiyat-ul-Amsar wa Tajriyat ul Asar’
When Alaul-Din Khilji captured the city of Kambayat at the head of the Gulf of Cambay, he killed the adult male Hindu inhabitants for the glory of Islam, set flowing rivers of blood, sent the women of the country with all their gold, silver, and jewels, to his own home, and made about twenty thousand Hindu maidens his private slaves.
This ruler once asked his spiritual advisor (or ‘Qazi’) as to what was the Islamic law prescribed for the Hindus. The Qazi replied:
“Hindus are like the mud; if silver is demanded from them, they must with the greatest humility offer gold. If a Mohammadan desires to spit into a Hindu’s mouth, the Hindu should open it wide for the purpose. God created the Hindus to be slaves of the Mohammadans. The Prophet hath ordained that, if the Hindus do not accept Islam, they should be imprisoned, tortured, finally put to death, and their property confiscated.”
The Mughal emperor Babur wrote in his memoirs called the ‘Baburnama’
” In AH 934 (2538 C.E.) I attacked Chanderi and by the grace of Allah captured it in a few hours. We got the infidels slaughtered and the place which had been Daru’l-Harb (nation of non-muslims) for years was made into a Daru’l-Islam (a muslim nation).”
In Babur’s own words in a poem about killing Hindus (From the ‘Baburnama’ ) he wrote :
“For the sake of Islam I became a
wanderer,
I battled infidels and Hindus,
I determined to become a martyr
Thank God I became a Killer of
Non-Muslims!”

Contemporary record ‘Badshah Nama, Qazinivi & Badshah Nama , Lahori’
This explains the atrocities committed by Mughal ruler Shah Jahan, who is known as a ‘Romantic Person’ by Leftist historians. It states “When Shuja was appointed as governor of Kabul he carried on a ruthless war in the Hindu territory beyond Indus…The sword of Islam yielded a rich crop of converts….Most of the women burnt themselves to death. Those captured were distributed among Muslim Mansabdars”.
‘Tarikh-I-Alamgiri’ describes atrocities of Afghani Invader Ahmad Shah Abdali
“Abdali’s soldiers would be paid 5 Rupees (a sizeable amount at the time) for every enemy head brought in. Every horseman had loaded up all his horses with the plundered property, and atop of it rode the girl-captives and the slaves. The severed heads were tied up in rugs like bundles of grain and placed on the heads of the captives…Then the heads were stuck upon lances and taken to the gate of the chief minister for payment.
“It was an extraordinary display! Daily did this manner of slaughter and plundering proceed. And at night the shrieks of the women captives who were being raped, deafened the ears of the people…All those heads that had been cut off were built into pillars, and the captive men upon whose heads those bloody bundles had been brought in, were made to grind corn, and then their heads too were cut off. These things went on all the way to the city of Agra, nor was any part of the country spared.”

The biggest irony is, that this biggest holocaust in World History has been completely whitewashed from history and not many people are aware of these atrocities. If we talk about the Western world, they produce movies and documentaries, which highlights the human misery caused by evil rulers. They ensure that their current generations are aware of the atrocities imposed on their forefathers, and they don’t shy away from attacking those regimes and their belief system, which caused such a trauma for their earlier generation.
However, a similar approach is missing in Indians, the root cause for the same is lack of any awareness among the youngsters about what happened to their ancestors in the past. We can’t put the entire blame on them as most of our historians have twisted the facts and fabricated the history to please their Secular Masters. We should ask our generation to study more, research more on these subjects, to explore the truth. We must remember it always, that a future is constructed on the foundation of our past, any issue, any problem which we are facing today, it has their references somewhere in the past, until and unless we understand our past, we wont be able to solve the problems of our future.

@asianobserve You are treading on thin ice here. This issue of undignified necrophilic reporting on cremations taking place in India is indefensible. You may end up evoking few other fallacies including Godwin’s law and over do yourself. The only dehumanisation is done by western media not us. For us the matter was simply enduring a predictable insult from usual suspect; condemning, debunking and then move on.

Kindly pull back yourself from defending it or I have to throw you out of this thread.

I don't blame moghuls for what they did.
The Turks could do as they pleased because they ruled over us.
Just to calm some nerves here , when Marathas attacked patthargarh fort after panipat war to take revenge from rohilla pathans , then I say this with sheer delight that not a single rohilla be it man or women or child was left standing .
It was a delightful sight of the hindu revenge against islamic oppression.
Pathhargarh was utterly devasted.
Najib khans eyes were gouged out , and the Marathas were glorious once again.

@asianobserve thinks we are school going kids with limited education and have memory of few weeks.

Publishing a statement, a matter of fact is not News on American tabloids.

The news is one sided debates, using influencers to start trends and social media storms, coordinated attacks using worldwide networks, issuing scripts to feeders like AFP, Toolkits to mislead, shoot and scoot, creating scattering effect by bombarding fake news and OpEds to stick with as many sources it can, ring fencing counter arguments, targeting individual with opposing views and threatening with cancel cultures.

Their objective may or may to be to create an acute harm but inflicting a permanent injury by a systematic attack of very long duration creating a credibility deficit and demoralising masses against big country like India.
Just kick him out already.

Don't take pride upon killing children, they should have been converted and enslaved

And the women could have been married of to chieftains or valiant soldiers for their effort

But, Maratha enclave was founded upon a set of ideals, of Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj himself, the more they swayed away from those ideas, and started infighting and backstabbing, the more they disintegrated and the white man saw the opportunity there

If you think "media" exists to improve society with no hidden agendas no biases then I have a bridge to sell you. Various intelligence agencies, corporations, politicians control and manipulate media for their agenda. There is no such thing as free media.

And what is this nonsense obsession with media sympathy? The democracies aren't for the media by the media. Media exist to serve people and representatives of those people. not the other way around.

There was no media in 1776 yet USA was a perfectly fine democracy back then. Media doesn't improve society but society improves itself. The freedom movement of India wasn't because of media but because of people. But nowadays a single guideline by gov and all the sudden "democracy is in danger". Those that think they need constant media propaganda to keep democracy alive have no confidence in people nor in democracy.

There is too much CIA brainwashing that people think elected officials aren't trustworthy but some unelected media house who is owned by some shady businessmen is pillar of truth.
Read "Thinking Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman is a very good read on biasis and how to tame them.

One of the best way to overcome biasis in the information we consume is by trying to get as many and varied inputs and point of views on issues. So you tune in to local news sources, CNN, Reuters, Fox, BBC, France24, DW, arirang, Al Jazeera, etc. Then you gauge where there's overlapping of reporting. That's probably the more correct version in most cases.

Anyway, it's media's job to seek the truth, not confirm our biasis.

FRCA: Let the money come in. Monitor, track and make sure it is used for intended work.
If we need assistance then we must let it in. At the same time it is our right to make sure the money is rightly spent on intended work. No one should have any complaints here.

Change the rules if they do not comply.

No, their job is to seek money. This is how any business including media business oprates. News anchors are hired specificly by admin so they have a specific bias. Journalist are given targeted hit jobs by editors. They have pro focus group from which every single report is judged on basis of whether it will sell or not.

Maratha part two , after aurangiyas death is a very interesting topic to discuss.
Their failure in my opinion was that they went on to follow , the old samant wadi or sillhedar system where every man bought his own troops.
Except for huzurat cavalry of peshwa, the grandee armee of the Marathas was assembled and then disintegrated as campaign demanded.
Around 1787 one benoit de boigne a French adventurer , arrived in court of mahadaji sindhia , he helped him to recapture delhi and in years 1788 , they
Entered the city .
Later this French man , helped the maratha make a new army of around 10000 men , trained in French way or european way of warfare .
So 10000 fine Marathas were trained in european fashion this new army was equipped with european or say french weapons and versed in French tactics .
They later increased this to 12000men.
Supported by a ambulance corps , well Laid logistics etc.
This elite military defetaed mughal and kachwaha rajputs in 1790, where they faced 100000 men and 200 cannons etc.
This new army terrified the english east india company .
Alas sindhiya moved away from peshwas and finally this army didn't come to help the peshava when he fought the Brits.

Guys I'm just trying to point out that CNN's reports on India's plight under this particularly hard hitting 2nd wave of Covid-19 infections are no different than DWTV, France24, NHK, ABC, NBC, RT, Reuters, AP, or local Indian media., so why are you particulary riled up with with CNN?

(It's a headscratcher....:facepalm:)

Guys I'm just trying to point out that CNN's reports on India's plight under this particularly hard hitting 2nd wave of Covid-19 infections are no different than DWTV, France24, NHK, ABC, NBC, RT, Reuters, AP, or local Indian media., so why are you particulary riled up with with CNN?

(It's a headscratcher....:facepalm:)
No one is pissed only with the CNN. It is all of Western Media. You only need to look at the previous posts in this thread to understand what we are trying to say.
