Re: # 186
Migration...

Ans: Europe had brought the labours from their ex-colonies for menial work. That is no true for USA. Doctors, engineers, scientists from India and China settle in USA after receiving better higher education in USA. It is not menial work...
Regarding Canada, I can not comment now...


"they wouldn't have even lasted as long as the Mughals did, people like you worship their oppressors based on intra-group bigotry,.."

Ans: Whether they would have lasted more or not, there is no point commenting about it. British had left India (Mountbatten handed over power to Nehru)
Mughals were kicked by Sikhs, Marathas and then EIC...

Intra-group bigotry !!! You think that way. I don't think Indians think that way...

"you should be horse whipped and thrown out of India, so you can spend the rest of your life being the white man's chaprasee..."

Ans:
Scoundrel, you arab slaves/half camels will decide what should Indians do? Ultimate audacity...

Re: # 187
Masadi...
The British Raj in India didn't last very long before they were forced to incorporate changes like the inception of the Indian National Congress regarding grievances and civil issues..

Ans: Masadi you are repeating the same words without reasoning and ignoring the historical facts.

INC was the result of British education. INC was formed mostly by the people eduated in UK/Britain. British society, their administrative system and governance was much better than the way British Govt. was functioning in India. It was to bring parity between both the systems.
If two territories are ruled by same Govt., why not treat two with parity? Britain was way ahead of India in all terms (education, art & culture, engineering and industry).
Oxford , Cambridge and Manchester was famous for education. Eton, Harrow for middle education,
Manchester and Sheffield for their industrial contribution.
Couple of luminaries from Britain during that period - James Watt, William Shakespeare, Isac Newton, Michael Faraday, John Dalton....

The meaning of freedom, democracy etc... was re-infused into Indian society by these British educated people.
New social order was brough by British Govt. That was the reason for it's downfall.

Coming to the Mughals

Mughals had nothing to offer in that sense. They were barbarians/looters and become little civilised after coming to India. The transformation from Ghaji Babur to Akber (little less islamic) had taken 3 generations. What was the civil structure of their own country (agriculture, industry,art & culture,literature, science)? Nothing notable. Babur was from Samarkhand. What could have contributed towards Indian society (apart from being breeding ground of looters/barbarians to plunder India)?

nkg writes "How they manage diversity?"

Yes for centuries they coexisted as minorities even though they dominated an area and only slowly out of free volition that those majorities blend into the minorities or were part of a conspiracy to throw them out even though they tolerated them, such an example cannot be found in European settler areas when the indigeneous populations were wiped out and diversity (AAs) only tolerated as slaves for their labor, much like how they tolerate immigrants today by creating seperate countries with borders and (police) visas inside their country to seperate the white man from the coloreds....you are a a-hole and a bigot who is quite ignorant of the global system, of his own society and of how the white man has operated post industrial revolution, while before that he was grovelling in his sh**

Like father like son, wasting his life with distraction and play, all the while not realizing how the system is trapping them to a life of meaningless enslavement both in work and in leisure...Uncle masadi can teach him some "facts of life"- introduce him to chowk where his father makes one pathetic post after another....

nkg writes "Mughals lost their control before British took over the administration...."

Why they lost control is because of the reasons I mentioned, reasons that the British because of their barbaric nature and racial exclusivity avoided. The British Raj in India didn't last very long before they were forced to incorporate changes like the inception of the Indian National Congress regarding grievances and civil issues, which tells me that they wouldn't have even lasted as long as the Mughals did, people like you worship their oppressors based on intra-group bigotry, you should be horse whipped and thrown out of India, so you can spend the rest of your life being the white man's chaprasee...

nkg writes "why people all over the world is hell bent on migrating into that country?..."

Because of cultural domination of the US which is a factor of global domination, of resources and wealth. The image that the slaves carry of the "promised land" turns sour the moment they land there. That said only a select percent have either the resources or the desire to migrate to the US, this image of the "Third World" waiting with bags packed to rush to the US is a bunch of BS. The US "accepts" them only because it has clear mechanisms to fit them into the lowest rung of an hierarchical society, segregate them into third world ghettos, and as long as they don't question their position and status and do not wander into white only areas they leave them alone because the latent function they serve of stimulating growth and consumption to keep the US afloat while the rest of the developed countries stagnate comparatively ensures the maintainence of global US domination. Further most settling immigrants have communities and networks, based on nationality and are not "welcomed" as such by the host country, and unlike the European migrants that forced themselves on the land and got rid of the indigeneous population or colonized them, these migrants most fill menial positions within the US hierarchy of oppression. The country with the highest per capital immigration rate is not USA, it is Canada, and regarding the economically active migrants, only half are found in the US,Europe and Russia, the rest (half) are distributed around Asia, Africa and the rest of the colored countries. The US also has one of the highest out-migration (emigration) rates in the world, because the economic migrants from Mexico, who are returning to the part of the country that was illegally taken from them, keep returing home after a while, as do the other older migrants. Regarding your other allegations they are based only on speculation...

Re: # 135
Masadi...

Mughals lost their control before British took over the administration....Rise of sikhs in north and marathas in west was due to the direct rebellion against mughal rule; specially aurangzeb. Jijjiya, sharia,forced conversion and rampant killings, destruction of temples at Kashi etc...issues (islamic barbarism) reached at its peak around late 16th century and early 17th century. Several clans of Rajputs used to support mughals to suppress their rival brothers. Rajputs united and stopped supporting mughals( starting with 17th century)...EIC fought several battles to take control of India...
British had left India in different circumstance. They had to leave for political events, external to India (WWII and UN formation etc...)...British Govt. relinquished its power (handed over) to India...

Masadi...
...if US society is unfair to immigrants; why people all over the world is hell bent on migrating into that country?...name another country, which had accepted large immigrat population and still the society is not goin through turmoil?

Your point is -
Indian and Chinese students, paying high fees fill the US univs. 2nd and 3rd generation chinese & indians in USA r not doing well...
If that would have been the true, why so many indian and chinese settle in USA after completing their study? I have never heard that people have to leave USA unable to handle racism related problem...

If you want to live like a sixth century arab with your camels, beard, several wives etc. (http://www.chowk.com/interacts/13906/1/0/24#371732 Interact 89 - Most revered person in Pakistan....), then it is impossible to avoid taunts everywhere. Durning my first year, one CS fellow used to get kicked regularly while offering islamic prayer (During evening, he will put a blanket on the floor and will start the bizzare arabic custom. Just when he used to raise his ass to higher hight than his head, seniors used to kick his ass).

Have you analyzed your own (muslim) societies? How they manage diversity?

Haha Masadi, you are losing it. My kid, a high school senior, for the last four days woke up every morning religiously at 4.00am to catch 5.45 train from Penn Station to Philly, to go watch the Penn Relays (he came back past midnight every day – for the love of the game!!!!). He competed yesterday there with his team in 4x400 (and DMR), they were outclassed, even though they are ranked in NYC, but that’s beside the point. My kids, and millions others are not chasing American dreams (because they are the standard bearer of one). It’s the losers who have nothing to show for that are looking for excuses for their own failures and that conveniently blame others for their own misery.

Masadi you asked me to teach my kids the “truth”? They can teach you a thing or two, though it may not be possible in your case.

one more thing before I retire for the night

ahmedmadani writes "it is sad they forget ladder which helped them to reach usa..."

Madani sahib most of them are sellouts, the likes of tahmed, they sold out the nation so little wonder that they would deceive their teacher. Your word "ladder" suggests that they are going to some higher plane, I beg to differ, they don't step on a ladder to reach the USA, they descend into the gutter using a rope, and many hang themselves with the same rope. They descend into the abyss and not reach a higher plane.....g'night

and if their publication filters filter the material "fit for consumption" (according to their status quo and sale criteria) of the drugged folk and you seek an alternative route to share the information because they wont let your through, they ridicule you.....
