With 80 million Hindus killed and tens of millions of Hindus enslaved by Muslims during many centuries of rule, India has been the greatest victim of Muslim conquest, its people subject to rapes, rapine, and mass killings that followed upon their submission. Modern India, under the rule of the Congress Party, shied away from standing up for Hindu rights or even of telling the truth about India’s history in becoming, under ruthless Muslim rule, what V. S. Naipaul called “a wounded civilization.” Narendra Modi is made of sterner stuff, and a champion of the Hindus, but it will still be difficult for him and those around him to figure out how to deal with the enemy within, whose numbers and power are steadily increasing.
More on the history of Muslim depredations of, and aggressions against, India’s Hindus can be found here: “The Massive Transformation of India and the Middle East,” by Uzay Bulut, Gatestone Institute,
Since 1947… Pakistan has initiated three full-fledged wars with India…. In addition, Pakistan has consistently utilized cross-border terrorism in India as an official instrument of state policy, including the 26/11 Mumbai attacks that killed 166 people.… Pakistan’s military and ISI spy agency also continues to support the Taliban, the Haqqani group, Lashkar-e-Taiba, Jaish-e-Mohammad, and other affiliated militant groups in Afghanistan to undermine U.S. military operations and maintain its strategic influence there.” — Hindu American Foundation, August 2019.
It was the Muslims of India who during the time of Partition in 1947 first attacked the Hindus as they streamed out of what would become West and East Pakistan. It was again the Muslims of Pakistan who made war against India in 1965, in an attempt to seize a greater share of Kashmir. That war, fought mostly in the air, ended in a stalemate with no change in borders. In 1971, Pakistan again began a war by attacking 11 Indian airbases, causing little damage but leading to India declaring war on Pakistan. The resultant Indo-Pak war took place while the army of West Pakistan was also attempting to crush the independence movement in East Pakistan. The Pakistani army lost both to India and to the rebels in East Pakistan, who promptly declared the existence of their new nation of Bangladesh. The latest large-scale conflict between India and Pakistan was the Kargil War in 1995, in which Pakistani army troops, disguised as local Kashmiri militants to maintain deniability, infiltrated beyond the Line of Control separating Indian from Pakistani Kashmir, in order to attack Indian army positions. That war ended like all the others, with a Pakistani defeat and a return to the antebellum borders.
India first faced Islamist violence, dating as far back as the 8th century to the time of the Muslim Mughal invasions and rule through the mid-19th century. Countless Hindus and other non-Muslims were murdered or forcibly converted to Islam.
The Indian historian K. S. Lal once estimated that as many as 80 million Hindus were slaughtered over several centuries by Muslims. In addition, tens of millions of Hindus, as well as Buddhists and Jains, converted to Islam to avoid being killed.
[Historian Mahomed] Ferishtha lists several occasions when… sultans in central India… (1347-1528) killed a hundred thousand Hindus, which they set as a minimum goal whenever they felt like “punishing” the Hindus.… Prof. K.S. Lal once estimated that the Indian population declined by 50 million under the Sultanate..[during the centuries when the population ought to have risen by 30 million, and with still more Hindus slaughtered outside the Delhi Sultanate].. research into the magnitude of the damage Islam did to India is yet to start in earnest…” — Koenraad Elst, The International Raoul Wallenberg Foundation, September 2, 2011.
Apart from actual killing, millions of Hindus disappeared by way of enslavement. After every conquest by a Muslim invader, slave markets in Baghdad and Samarkand were flooded with Hindus…. [O]ne cold night in the reign of Timur Lenk (1398-99), a hundred thousand Hindu slaves died [on the Hindu Kush, “Hindu-killer”] while on transport to Central Asia.” — Koenraad Elst, The International Raoul Wallenberg Foundation, September 2, 2011.
Islamist violence against Hindus and other non-Muslims who enjoy freedom of speech is an ongoing problem.
This is true not just in Muslim lands. In Europe, too, those who are accused of insulting Muhammad are threatened with death, a threat that Muslims sometimes manage to carry out. Think only of the Charlie Hebdo cartoonists, Theo van Gogh, Lars Vilks, the staff of Jyllands-Posten, Salman Rushdie, and many others who were threatened with, or actually became the victims of, violent attacks, or were even murdered by Muslim fanatics. Even in India itself, where Muslim mobs are swift to inflict their “justice” against “blasphemers,” they are apparently unafraid of being apprehended by the police force.
Ethnic cleansing against the indigenous Hindu people of Kashmir was one of the occurrences that drastically changed the demographic balance in the region. Starting in 1989, more than 350,000 Kashmiri Hindus were driven from their ancestral homeland in the Jammu and Kashmir region by a radical insurgency orchestrated and funded by Pakistan.
In 1989, the Muslims in Jammu and Kashmir began a systematic campaign to drive out, or kill, the Hindus still living in that contested region. Their brutal methods, which included ghoulish tortures (eyes gouged out, genitals cut off, pregnant women eviscerated), terrorized the Hindus, and 350,000 Kashmiri Pandits fled southward out of the territory.
Open Borers and Diversity leads to massacres and Bloodshed
Blood is the ink of Islam’s transcribed history.
In spite of all the bloody history of Islam, Muslims still call it the religion of peace.
I don’t think it’s Muslims who call it “The Religion of Peace.” It’s Western fools and Islamic propagandists who call it that.
Taken out of context. Context is everything. Islam is peaceful once you submit.
“We’ll make the infidels an offer they can’t refuse. We will leave them in peace once they submit to the sword” – Don Mohammed Corleone
“Islam is peaceful once you submit.”
I guess that is why Muslims are busy killing each other when they aren’t killing Jews and Christians.
Are you really that naturally effing dumb or do you have to work on it each day?
Thanks, excellent history, and portrayal of India’s strategic dilemma.
The British should have never pulled out of India.
India would have been better off, but it was too costly for Britain to maintain. By the end of the Second World War it became obvious that they could no longer carry the White man’s burden. They could barely manage to carry their own country, after the Germans got through trying to occupy or destroy them.
I have a friend who worked with a Hindu who was the only survivor of a massacre of his fellow passengers on a train leaving what is now Pakistan for India after partition.
Poor guy. It’s amazing how resilient humans are, that he was functional after witnessing such a horror. But his nights must have been very hard.
The Western politicians and philanthropists who push for more mass migration from the Near East and North Africa are condemning their countries to the same terrible conflicts. How can they be so selfish and stupid.
Many years ago, in a state far, far away, I was a college kid. I met a young handsome man of Middle-eastern extraction, and we dated for a while.
In the course of our relationship, I discovered he was Muslim. Being somewhat infatuated, I decided to see what that religion was all about. I took extra hours in the library, poring over the Koran, writing down questions.
He seemed amused at my interest, and answered all my questions truthfully.
“Is it true you cut off the hands of thieves?”
“Yes, it is our law ”
“Is it true you will enslave or kill people who will not accept Allah?”
“Yes, that is the word of Allah. The Koran IS the word of Allah, and must be obeyed ”
“Is it true you can have more than one wife?”
At that, he chuckled, and said, “We can have as many wives as we can afford!”
Every time he answered even the horrific, to me, questions, it was as if, yes the sky is blue, and the word of Allah is law, and we obey.
That is my experience and understanding of Islam. The only reference I remember reading regarding the “peace of Islam” is this: “There will be no peace until all is Islam”.
I broke off the relationship shortly thereafter. I had read the Koran completely, and understood then what a threat Islam is to America. It is a theocracy, and inimical to our Constitution.
I have been called racist and Islamohobic by a family member, who no longer speaks to me. I don’t know how to combat the rise of Muslims in our country; they will take over, using our laws against us, until we end up with a “seperate but equal” society, that has no equality involved.
This is a danger that should be exposed to all Americans, shouted from the rooftops.
If anyone will listen.
“If anyone will listen.”
You are wise, and your warnings are correct. But nobody is listening. Will they listen when the knife is at their throats?
Islam is a curse on the face of the Earth, seeking to drag mankind back into the dark ages at the point of a sword.
I cannot understand how anyone can BECOME a member of the Islamic faith or an existing one can remain if they read/ learn re the Prophet. And why Western governments make it difficult for people to find out, or in some cases, punish them for doing so ( there was a case in Austria where someone of authority was jailed or fined for telling the truth ). Ages of 50’s + and 4, 6 and 8/9 year old, hence the permitted age of marriage.
Islam is very attractive to the most pathologically violent and misogynist males in our culture, hence the number of prison conversions. As to women who convert, I am at a complete loss as to why they would do so, unless they live in such a violent, Muslim-dominated world that they need the protection of a Muslim husband, who will also abuse them.
Why is the Koran not banned on w/wide basis for being a book of hate. It instructs persons to be killed if not agreeable to being forcefully converted, and to murder men, rape their women, enslave all who won’t submit, kill all Jews and non-believers. Supposedly in Norway, a sanitised version of the Koran is issued, why should the need for that, be ? All of the Middle East, large parts of Africa, the Far East were forcibly converted by like a disease on the march. The gross incredible activities ISIS did in Syria, Iraq etc were as instructed by the Koran.
I had and have several Muslim friends and acquaintances who I think would be horrified if they knew what is in their Holy Book ?.
I chuckle whenever I see vehicles that proudly display a COEXIST bumper sticker. In today’s world, how naive is it to think “Can’t we all put aside our religious differences and get along?” There is no way we can exist with someone who will kill us if we don’t submit to their authority. The repression of women in Iran and Afghanistan is enough proof for me that Islam is incompatible with the Constitution of the United States or any other free country in our world.
Of course extremists exist in every situation, but the “Religion of Peace” is anything but peaceful and far more responsible for deaths of “infidels” through the last 1000 years than any other of the OEXIST symbols.

I wonder how many young white women have been kidnapped and are living as slaves in Middle Eastern harems.
