I am glad that at least we agree upon one exactness, as we know it. Now, let us move on to other matters that you threw. Prithivi did use force against smaller nations, some as big, few bigger. However, probably acceptable or not, but it was definitely well understood that almost every other nations were up for grabs, IFF, the nation having that ambition to do so could actually back it with their might. It was more or less a jungle rule, and there was not a body of nations, which said, "Hey hold on, maybe you should think it over." Even then, we have seen how it works, eh'? Now, to link the means he used to earn his status to that of his future lineage, and their atrocities, which he had no control over is, if not stupid, then definitely far fetched. Can we, as a rationale human being, blame the exact culprit instead of actually dragging in the man just because? Cruelty may flow in the blood, although there is no an exact science that have absolute creditability to determine this. By the same token, might I as well be audacious enough to say, it may not? Then, should we blame and accuse, no less, a person whose fault is, well, his great-great-great grandsons turned out to be an assoholes? Is it even fair, let alone logical? And we talk about mentality. Is not it ironic! From what I have understood, they say, we were apes before we became to be distinguished as humans. Notwithstanding many traits we share, we definitely have deviated from our original self. We developed nuclear weapons, gone thru holocaust, have killed each other traveling millions of miles, even before our surrounding were threatened. Apes did not do that. Let us blame Apes then. A far fetched illustration perhaps, but hits the nail on its head. We both have our bottom-line, I purpose, shall we at least agree upon being logical and point a finger at the definite culprit rather than developing conspiracy theories? That requires us to understand that just because our grandchildren turned out to be dakas, we shall refuse to take it upon us being conceived as daka as well! And with it, we would not blame a man for the crimes his great-great granchildrens committed. Else, this far fetched blame game is never ending my friend. I rest my case. Atsu! IndisGuise:)
