This Cameron guy gets on my nerves. He'd make that pig Churchill proud. The diamond does not matter, we are beyond all that. But the way he addresses the issue with smugness, as if Brits are the final authority on what can and cannot happen in terms of returning colonial plunder, just stinks of an imperialist, holier than thou attitude in their ruling elite's mindset.
This is the unfortunate fact of our past. India was not called 'soneh ki chiriya' for nothing centuries ago before every other country near and far came to plunder this place. The Kohinoor is but one, the Daryayenoor is sitting in Tehran's central bank and the Iranians have no intention of returning it, even though both diamonds came out of the mines of Golkonda in present day Andhra Pradesh.
Just forget about it, and don't expect a gesture of civility from other countries that looted us in the past. After all, they are descendants and of the same cloth as those invaders anyway, whom they consider as national heroes that bravely travelled thousands of kilometres to rape, murder and plunder us for their nation's glory. Good for them.
You can be proud that India has never invaded others or propagated its philosophies in a violent manner throughout our history. A distinction that perhaps only the dwindling indigenous people, or African nations that are still being divided and pillaged, can truly share. In hindsight though, this lack of need for Indian Kings to look outside the subcontinent, because of the endless wealth that lay here, was a curse that led to complacency, disunity and an opening for outsiders to have free reign in taking our riches back to their barren deserts and caves.
