Dear Kaali Jee, Namaste and good wishes. I agree with you only partially. It is true that in the hay days of European colonization the divide and rule was a potent tool. However we miss three important points here: what and why the religious differences are there to be exploited; how it is relevant today; and how it is related to the murder of Nepalese in Iraq. As I wrote before we should not put apples and oranges together. Hinduism, Buddhism. Taoism etc. are the religions about methods of spiritual advancements. Semitic religions including Islam are about social discipline and militarization. The former group of religions is like joining college to get education. The second group of religion is like joining army. For example, in Nepal we go to Swoyambhu, Pashupati temple, Narayan temple etc. routinely. Even in China, Chinese people go to Taoist or Buddhist or Confucious temples as they please. Now try being a Christian for 2 days, a Muslim for 3 days and a Jew for 2 days of a week. You will be be appreciated to say the least. Because it is like being a soldier of US marine for 2 days, Russian army for 3 days and so forth. To say that Hindus and Muslims are always fighting in India is really committing an injustice. You are putting cops and crooks in the same footing. It always has been Islamic aggression and Hindu resistance. The thousands of temple been demolished and millions of Indians being killed and converted by force is not a fiction but reality. You really do not have to preach tolerance to us. We are for tolerance, coexistence and brotherly love. What you need to do is talk to Muslim brothers if they are for same, condemn anti-infidel passages in Quran, and practice secular democracy in their countries. To bring an issue of unrelated racism and colonization is merely an attempt at obfuscation. THANKS.
