Thread Name: BS: India: ethnic cleansing?
Subject: RE: BS: India: ethnic cleansing?
Bobad There is far more to a question like this than presenting an individual's take on these events - ethnic cleansing is part of world history and of what is beginning to happen internationally today Using these horrific events to show that one people/culture/religion is more guilty than another is dishonest, inhuman and agenda driven - it makes ethnic cleansing more likely to continue than it does prevent it. That someone who spends so much time defending the victims of one of the worst crimes in living memory should make themselves part of this is beyond my comprehension (I still have your mammoth list which set out to prove that Muslims have been culturally and socially degenerate since pre-Christian times) The U.S. was built on Ethnically cleansing the Native Americans; modern Australia and New Zealand came into being similarly; Empires were created using ethnic cleansing and forcible acculturation... now we have the same openly taking place in The Middle East It's about time we discussed it for what it is rather than finger-pointing whataboutism in order to defend our own prejudices and political interests Jim Carroll
