For writing a history book, should he get a Pulitzer for physics!
History...!
Apart from the Pulitzer Prize in that category there are numerous History Accolades out there - If his work was 'credible' maybe someone would've noticed.
It was never my intention to spoon feed. Just to get you started because you specifically requested me.
There is a difference between spoon feeding & making sweeping statements & then when asked to substantiate your claim, adopting a condescending attitude !
As I mentioned earlier:
Now it is up to you to either get defensive, deny the whole thing, assume that it happened to someone else (and not to Pakistanis' ancestors themselves as well) or to dig a bit deeper.
Seems you have made your choice. There is a pattern there as well. So no worries.
A lot of information is now available just by putting the right search term in your favorite search engine.
It is only you who has to muster the courage to put the term in there and press that dreaded enter key.
I did....had I found something 'credible' I would've formulated my opinion thus ! Unfortunately whims doesn't equate to history.
A lot of you are under this misconception.
It seems you won't mind Muslims to live under similar conditions in non Muslim majority countries?
Would that be about right?
Hope your wish comes true.
Soon.
PS: You looked past all the murders, slavery, persecution, harassment, conversion part pretty quick! You just saw the tax in the whole post?
Had I believed in the murders, persecution, harassment & conversion part above & beyond what any leaders of a similar time did or didn't do - I would not be curious enough to have this conversation !
And yes - Its the prerogative of any Non-Muslim Country, that were they to impose a tax on the Muslim Subjects, in lieu of exemption from Military Duty they'd be in the right to do so.
Again, in your urge to deny quickly without even looking what you are denying, you are forgetting that I quoted you figures for only the parts that became West Pakistan.
So East Punjab population (that became part of India) were not included in the figures shared. There is even a district wise break I gave you.
If you were to give me a 'source' for your Figures & that Chart, I'd be able to see it myself what were the parameters of the '41 Census !
Give me a Link !
