For thousands of years you guys were slaves ( mugals, britishers and invaded by other Persian people) and were never know to outside world for something good or inovative other than cheap labour( Slaves) or Spices.
The current India is not a one country and is bound to break or disintigrate as it is collection of small countries ( Khalistan, kashmir, Nagaland and Tamils).
Our Sikh rule was famous around the world and people from US, UK, France and other European countries worked for it.
Hindus living there betrayed us and Britishers took over.

This is due to cheap barons like u who refuse to be a part of sovereign India. You are not aware that you have no identitity without India. Stop making such useless comments.
1. The writer makes some observations of Hindus that are crucial to the feeling that they have to be ruled over by a foreigner, and at that rule by any foreigner! This reminds me of the fable that I learned as a child in Bharat of the monkey that descended from a tree to arbitrate a dispute over the spoils of a chapatee being fought over by two other animals. The monkey sowed suspicions in the animals by dividing the chapatee into unequal portions and secured the largest portion for himself. This very largely informs the mental block of Hindus in the dividing up the cake of Bharat Inc. People have primarily concerned themselves with their relatively small diminishing portions.
2. Where the fable differs from reality is that the foreigner secures the whole cake that is then distributed as bounty in appropriate portions. Promise of a growing cake secures loyalty and devotion in a way Hindu fixation has failed to manage. Religion is crucial as feelings about fairness and justice determines whether the country prospers or dies. Bharats Hindu religion emphasises ritual and caste hierarchy that so fixed a persons place in society that it leaves little room for growth in this life, or more crucially if peace and order is to prevail the next.
3. If the carrot has won loyalty for the foreigner, the stick has ensured its permanence. Threats and reprisals are the way of the foreigner as the way of our Hindu leaders has been bowing and scraping, to the extent that mere crumbs has been enough to satisfy our leaders. Where there has been no retribution, honour has also been absent. Love is a mixture of feelings that include admiration by some and perhaps dislike by others. The disloyalty and disaffection that was so much in evidence with the BJP may be on par for normal Hindu behaviour but a foreigner will always win hands down.
4. In the manner of the Jews, Hindus have found themselves abroad. For all their travels abroad, Hindus have retained a semblance of their identity from which they originated, and yet learned little. The Jews on the other hand fitted in and are steeled in their core beliefs. The Hindus as befitting their ancient beliefs were bound to be superficial in contrast to the Jews. Core beliefs have sustained the Jews well after loss of the superficial symbols of religious identity that so much informs Bharats Hindus.
5. While Hindu pagan beliefs compare favourably with Romes pagan roots, they could not be more different in their polity. Rome was an organising and conquering military power that was served by religion against Bharat that served religion by its preoccupation in temple building, and even less in the conviction of its missionary activities. The one outward looking and the other even after millennia still so inward looking that it has yet to recognise the changed world.
6. Nature abhors a vacuum. The Hindus that for a mere pittance assisted terrorists land RDX explosives on Bharats shores amply demonstrates that the foreign fixation is not so inane as is supposed. Its cause is rooted in Bharats ancient composite structure. This is the weakest link in Bharats internal security. A very real threat to national security exists for which Bharats leaders have not been able to provide answers.
