Now if say, Modi is like Aurangazeb shouldn't it taken as a compliment because all of history books keep parotting phrases like 'Akbar the great' and 'Aurangazeb the great'. The thing is the dislike for Modi in you (Syed) has you to extent of equating Modi with Aurangazeb ( Mr. Syed would like to be diplomatically correct so he lets a pseudo character Khan to tell what he wants to say). You wanted to blame Modi, but you ended exposing the myths about Aurangazeb being great by comparing Modi with that invader. Although history cannot set right by committing two wrongs, there is another saying 'history keeps repeating itself' only that it does in manifests itself in different forms and places. Now that you confirmed the hollowness in the claims of the greatness of the muslim invaders, how about recommending the removal of the blots in our history books that mention Aurangazeb and Akbar as greats?? Can we not call spade a spade?

And if you think I like Modi - read the statement again - 'Although history cannot set right by committing two wrongs' - that clearly means what Modi did was wrong.

Read it properly, Zain. I never told Modi is right and neither I am fan of Modi or for that matter BJP. I was just taking the quote made by the author and tried to relate it to the way history books are written - do you mean to say whatever I mentioned about the history books is a story?? Probably you never had history as a subject. And where does oppressor and oppressed come in this context??
