ALL indians? Are you sure? Even Shri Gurunanak ? Even Swami Vivekananda ? ALL is a big word. See, people on this thread alone are challenging you without saying "Bajwa ka post hai, sab chaltha hai yaar." no?
You are right in saying that there were failures. But it's quite wrong to focus only on the failures and generalize it. There has been success too.. Shivaji stood his ground, and I presume he was an Indian. VeeraPandiya Katta Bomman, Subrahmanya barathiyar, Vanchinadahaiyar, Subrahmanya Shiva, Va.Vu.Chitambaram Pillai, Alluri Seetharama Raju and a ton of others stood their ground.
If you have a point prove it. I shall hear patiently, for I respect your depth of knowledge on Sikh history. But remember sikh history is not the only history, nor is it the most perfect one.
