The Indian who shamed Britain by calling out a massacre (bbc.com)
6 points by ViktorRay 11 months ago | hide | past | favorite | 3 comments


In the name of the queen and the crown, Britishers were involed in so many thefts (cultural artifacts for example - Kohinoor diamond anyone?), rapes, atrocities, massacres, genocide and more - and still had the gall call others as evil!

They divided many nations arbitrarily, not just India - and partitions of India and middle east caused the death of hundreds of thousands of people and the displacement of millions of people. We talk about holocaust a lot. But what Britishers did is no less evil.

Why isn’t that nation and the queen / crown held responsible? Such a shame.


>They divided many nations arbitrarily, not just India

India was about a dozen kingdoms and principalities when the British got involved in India.


Yes and the foreign forces like the Moghuls and British invaded India - and plundered India and Indians.
