Students from universities call David Petreaus a disgusting imperialist.

Muslim Maulanas are taught to kill Christian Missionaries.

Or you have to talk to their fathers and Mullahs about religion.

Fvcking rednecks, they know they have done wrong they know it.

The Mughal Dynasty built the Taj Mahal, and the British built the Mumbai Railway Station. As for Indians, uh, uh, wait for me to think about it…

Tucker Carlson's comments reflects the audience he is speaking to.

It is obvious the British were superior in technology and statecraft to the Mughals. The Mughals were obviously incompetent.
Does it mean the British civilized India ?

An American TV anchor is drawing the ire of Indians for suggesting that the British had civilised India.

Tucker Carlson from Fox News channel claimed that India had not produced any architectural marvels after British rule ended.

The anchor made the statement during a show on Queen Elizabeth II who died last week, aged 96.

His comments have been criticised as racist and uninformed by politicians, commentators and social media users.

They come at a time when the Queen's death has revived a sensitive debate about the empire's colonial past.

In recent days, a number of prominent writers and academicians across the world, including in India, have criticised the British monarchy which, they say, is yet to reckon with the indignities and brutality of the empire.

Mr Carlson sought to debunk this argument in his show last week, when he claimed that the British empire was "more than just genocide".

"Strong countries dominate weak countries. This trend hasn't changed," he said in a clip that has since gone viral on Twitter.

The anchor added that unlike the US, the English "took their colonial responsibility seriously" and ruled the world with "decency unmatched by any empire in human history".

"When the British pulled out of India, they left behind an entire civilisation, a language, a legal system, schools, churches and public buildings, all of which are still in use today," he said.

The anchor then tried to defend his position by giving the example of Victoria Terminus station - a sprawling Victorian structure of yellow sandstone, granite and blue-grey basalt in what was then the city of Bombay (now Mumbai) - which was built by the British in 1887 and renamed as Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CST) in 2016.

"After 75 years of independence, has [India] produced a single building as beautiful as the Bombay train station the British colonialists built? No sadly it has not, not one," Mr Carlson said.

His comments outraged many in India, including senior politicians like Shashi Tharoor of the main opposition Congress party.

"I think Twitter ought to have an option for something to press when you can't respond without losing your cool," Mr Tharoor tweeted with two angry emojis on Tuesday.

Another user said he found the claim "funny" as the most stunning buildings he had seen in India "weren't built by the British but by Indians themselves".

"That was before colonialism, when they could still afford to... Colonialism wrecked India, it didn't build it," he added.
Tennis legend Martina Navratilova also weighed in on the matter and said that Mr Carlson's "utter ignorance of history" was "quite staggering".

"Your racism is off the charts and your stupidity on this particular issue is of Olympic proportions!!!," she tweeted.

However, journalist Barkha Dutt said the controversy was blown out of proportion and called it a case of "needless obsession with the white man's orientalism".

"Amazed at how much time Indian media is willing to expend on a US anchor who wouldn't even notice if you commented on his nation," she added.

As Muslims we should be honest about Hindus.

Hindus too have contributed to human civilization, calling you a disgusting imperialist.

A lot of Indians and even some Pakistanis secretly desire and long for the days when the British Empire ruled over us considering how awful the current situation is. Of course they won't openly admit it as they would get scolded or killed. It was very tragic for alot when the news came out that the British were leaving, and one can figure why.

I believe that, brother. Hence, I created the image below for my fellow manhoos citizens; one in particular, he's probably in the shower weeping as we speak.

Even blacks around the world have more izat than South Asians. You don't see blacks crying for the death of a plantation owner's descendants.

Some South Asians are house negros by nature as described my Malcom X from his video below:

The house Negro usually lived close to his master. He dressed like his master. He wore his master's second-hand clothes. He ate food that his master left on the table. And he lived in his master's house--probably in the basement or the attic--but he still lived in the master's house.

So whenever that house Negro identified himself, he always identified himself in the same sense that his master identified himself. When his master said, "We have good food," the house Negro would say, "Yes, we have plenty of good food." "We" have plenty of good food. When the master said that "we have a fine home here," the house Negro said, "Yes, we have a fine home here." When the master would be sick, the house Negro identified himself so much with his master he'd say, "What's the matter boss, we sick?" His master's pain was his pain. And it hurt him more for his master to be sick than for him to be sick himself. When the house started burning down, that type of Negro would fight harder to put the master's house out than the master himself would.

lol stop kissing the asses of the Brits.

Mughals did incredible things in India like Taj Mahal.

Mughal emperor made Taj Mahal for his wife not India.

What Mughals did do for India was make roads, encourage transport by river, establish sea routes for trade, develop ports for trade, got rid of inland tolls and taxes, and hunt down dacoits and bandits that threatened trade routes.

They exponentially increased the wealth of Hindustan or modern day India by encouraging trade.

Hindu Merchants exclusively held all the trading rights while Muslims only held high administrative positions. These same Hindus that were made wealthy by the Mughals, curse them today in the guise of saffron nationalism. Truly they are namak haram..

GT road goes from Kabul to Myanmar and was made under Mughal rule to increase trade. They basically made the first highway.
