It's messed up the way they write history, it's biased and rare for the right people to get credit. All the inventors and explorers get cheated, too. Credit is rarely given to the true innovators and liberators. I hate Politics!!!!

Well ofcourse, and the mobility of the Indian troops was restricted to South Asia and Southeast Asia against the Japanese. 
Lord Mountbatten was a friend of my grandfather.  |

People under colonial rule don't really have a choice as to where they can fight, Eric.

I know. The British Army was really weak without the Indian regiments. |

The intention is not flaming. As a long standing member, I am aware of the true spirit of the forum. This was posted with an intention for introspection my american members and views of other non americans. In todays environment, I foresee an upheavel, not in the way of earlier times, but in the commercial world and real polarisation of forces. The isms have now taken a back seat, The nation building is in everyones mind. The polarisation is to take place but in what way and on what consideratations?
I had included a lost line with a definite purpose. What germany could not achieve in the forties, US may achieve.(?!) But there are pulls and counter pulls!
Let the views continue! |
