<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Yet we find the ungrateful rogue Sam Manekshaw (a Parsi) who was promoted to the the rank of Field Marshal passing anti-Hindu statements in a popular magazine like "India Today".
He said, "All your(Hindus) problems are because you worship too many Gods...".<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->Methinks Sam might be a Christo. From browsing through other forums I've found that many of the Parsees who've converted to Christianity believe that 'Parsee' is a community name or an ethnicity. Just like Christos who call themselves 'brahmin Christians', there are Christos who think they are Parsees. (They feel they need a legitimate Indian identifier - similar to 'Dalit Christian'.) It upsets real Parsees, from what I've read.
'Parsee' Christos, like all Christos, are ungrateful people. So are you certain that Sam M isn't one of these - his statement sure exhibits the usual ChristoIslamic monotheistic supremacy? And the name 'Sam' seems to point in this general direction too. Even if Sam was of Parsee ancestry and hadn't converted to ChristoIslamism, he might just have become a p-sec (probably has no respect for his own Zoroastrian religion either).
Parsee (Indian Zoroastrian) sites generally tend to show great respect for India and Hindus, saying that Hinduism had been very kind to them.
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->In the same issue of India Today, Farroq Abdullah the chief minister of Kashmir parrots the same line about how Kashmiris converted because of the caste system.
Actually the "Kashmiri" muslims are not even Kashmiri.
They are Turks and Arabs. Illegal immigrants who have killed most of the native Hindus and stolen the land.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->I was under the impression that most Kashmiris were of Indian ancestry, the usual enforced conversion to Islam. I read somewhere that Indian, Pak and Bd Muslims have 90% or more Indian ancestry.
(Although a couple of Kashmiri actors I've caught glimpses of do seem more Arabian looking than Indian. Maybe that's a dominant trait that was passed on in their case?)
For the rest, they don't look either Arabian or Turkic, but look just like very North Indian N Indians. What do I know, never been to Kashmir.
