Terror attacks for decades on India. Bombings in Syria. Brutal attacks on and sex slavery of Yezidi women. Beheadings in France. And recently added, attacks in Vienna, Austria. I have not added the grooming gangs of UK, yet, not because the crime the isn’t heinous, it certainly is despicable, but because of the focus of this article on terror attacks. I have already written separately about the grooming gangs and shall complete that article and post soon.
Britain ruled 59+ countries in the world (discounting the separate territories of United States, which I have now taken as one country as well as few islands). The British knew that they would have to vacate the forcibly occupied lands some time during the 1857 uprising of India. They wanted a defence circle around them, preferably of people who would have very orthodox and narrow belief systems.
The religion, that had originated lately, around 700 AD/CE from deserts, came to the rescue of the British – it had very stubborn believers, who would not think twice before committing crimes in the name of belief systems. What was more, was that this particular community rejoiced in committing atrocities even on those who showed mercy on them. The peculiarities of this community included committing murders for no particular reason at all, carrying mass massacre of those whom they didn’t know nor had had any interactions with; this was not found among most of the tribes of the world. The British gave a freeway to Islamists to continue conquering while telling the whole world to accept their atrocities. They were ruling 24% of the Earth at that time and hence had an impact on the beliefs of people of those countries under their rule as well as other countries, that weren’t, worldwide.
There was yet another fact to be taken care of – there had to be a name which could be used to suppress and guide people’s anger towards. The British chose Adolf Hitler for this job. While he did commit the crime of terminating lives of 5 million people and should be held responsible for that, his name was made famous as the most atrocious ruler, discounting all the others who had committed more heinous crimes and wiped out much larger a population of innocent people of the world. We hardly ever read a sentence in history books stating, “Aurangzeb was a tyrant and should’ve been punished with the most painful of endings“, but were told he was a poor cap weaver. We never heard people around us scold their children and say, “Don’t be like Mao, I’ll not spare the rod if I see you offending people around“. We could never hear, “Don’t be like the mughals, they raped corpses of women, that is why Jauhar was committed by Indian women”.
Instead we heard terms like “You are a khan” instead of “You are a tyrant khan”, we hear, “You are a Media mughal, that person is an industry mughal, blah blah mughal, great mughals” glorifying the tyrants. You may thank the British again for this whitewashing, it was their doing. We never heard “Don’t be like General Dyer, you’ll land up in jail, this is not British rule any longer and you are not in power”. We never heard any name of any tyrant except Adolf Hitler. Do you know why?
Major inventions during the industrial revolution started emerging from Germany. Germany started getting richer and might have risen to power to topple Britain. So it had to be named and shamed; till date it is being shamed for the crime of one man, who I’ve read in an Israeli newsite was said to have done so upon the suggestions of an Arab prince, this being told by none other than Netanyahu himself. It is also clearly mentioned that Hitler had received orders from someone powerful in the country to carry out the exodus, which then turned into holocaust due to recommendations from the prince. He fell into the trick and the whole country paid for it. Same could not be said about the other tyrants, who weren’t under any influence other than their own ideologies and beliefs, but whose names we never hear as being mentioned in the category of tyrants. Britain must learn to acknowledge that a crime is a crime, is a crime. Instead, they whitewashed everything committed by a particular community and ensured that their print houses in other countries misused their newspapers and always wrote in favor of criminals.
Europe followed the footsteps of British, trusted every word that was said and printed by the British and allowed migrants and refugees of the particular community to become a part of their lands. The community was looked upon with great respect and offered preference even over natives in several countries not only in Europe, but across the world. Huge funds flowed into the print media for marketing the nobility of the community, that had a dark past, a definite present and an unimaginable future. Rights were shared, responsibilities weren’t. Good manners were imbibed in natives, while the refugees were allowed to act as per will.
This created disparity and dissatisfaction. Probably, the British wanted every country to have a civil war and thus finish their populations, both native and migrants (the terrorist would anyway finish himself), leaving only those behind who somehow escaped the clutches of modern day tyrants. Those few would then have hardly any power and would have to again accept the rule of the mighty empire.
World War I itself was an indication that something somewhere was terribly wrong. We may never know the truth that led to it and that led to the subsequent war, as everything that’s in print has been worded carefully by the British and its loyals.
Having ruled so many countries, British had a fair idea of people realizing facts eventually as events would unfold themselves. They wanted to safeguard their saviors. So they periodically released history books long before vacating occupied lands and rewrote history of many a school syllabi to ensure no one retaliated against the tribe that had come from the deserts. The British suppressed all atrocities that this tribe committed, in fact they saved this tribe from legal complications whenever the terrorists belonging to this tribe attacked innocents anywhere, especially in India. British ensured that none of this was allowed to reach larger audience. Hence the voices of any media house that dared to publish the truth, were suppressed and silenced.
I have much to add to the above, but keeping it short for the readers, till more is either demanded or desired. Feel free to post queries, I’ll reply on a daily basis.
