No Atheists
In A Foxhole

Rudyard Kipling

" ā€œWhen you're left wounded on
Afganistan's plains and

the women come out to cut up what remains,
Just roll to your rifle

and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldierā€
General Douglas MacArthur

" ā€œWe are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.ā€

ā€œIt is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.ā€
ā€œOld soldiers never die; they just fade away.
ā€œThe soldier, above all other people, prays for peace,
for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.ā€
ā€œMay God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .ā€
ā€œThe object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.

ā€œNobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
ā€œIt is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died.
Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The Soldier stood and faced God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as bright as his brass
"Step forward you Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't
Because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint."
I've had to work on Sundays
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
The Soldier squared his shoulders and said
And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burden well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."

The Muslim Conquest of India
Saturday, July 27, 2019
Muslim Invaders of India
Will Durant argued in his 1935 book ā€œThe Story of Civilisation: Our Oriental Heritageā€ (page 459):
ā€œThe Mohammedan conquest of India is probably the bloodiest story in history. The Islamic historians and scholars have recorded with great glee and pride the slaughters of Hindus, forced conversions, abduction of Hindu women and children to slave markets and the destruction of temples carried out by the warriors of Islam during 800 AD to 1700 AD. Millions of Hindus were converted to Islam by sword during this period.ā€

Francois Gautier in his book ā€˜Rewriting Indian Historyā€™ (1996) wrote: ā€œThe massacres perpetuated by Muslims in India are unparalleled in history, bigger than the Holocaust of the Jews by the Nazis; or the massacre of the Armenians by the Turks; more extensive even than the slaughter of the South American native populations by the invading Spanish and Portuguese.ā€

Writer Fernand Braudel wrote in A History of Civilisations (1995), that Islamic rule in India as a

ā€œcolonial experimentā€ was ā€œextremely violentā€, and ā€œthe Muslims could not rule the country except by systematic terror. Cruelty was the norm ā€“ burnings, summary executions, crucifixions or impalements, inventive tortures. Hindu temples were destroyed to make way for mosques. On occasion there were forced conversions. If ever there were an uprising, it was instantly and savagely repressed: houses were burned, the countryside was laid waste, men were slaughtered and women were taken as slaves.ā€

Alain Danielou in his book, Histoire de lā€™ Inde writes:

ā€œFrom the time Muslims started arriving, around 632 AD, the history of India becomes a long, monotonous series of  murders, massacres, spoliations, and destructions. It is, as usual, in the name of ā€˜a holy warā€™ of their faith, of their sole God, that the barbarians have destroyed civilizations, wiped out entire races.ā€

Irfan Husain in his article ā€œDemons from the Pastā€ observes:

ā€œWhile historical events should be judged in the context of their times, it cannot be denied that even in that bloody period of history, no mercy was shown to the Hindus unfortunate enough to be in the path of either the Arab conquerors of Sindh and south Punjab, or the Central Asians who swept in from Afghanistanā€¦The Muslim heroes who figure larger than life in our history books committed some dreadful crimes. Mahmud of Ghazni, Qutb-ud-Din Aibak, Balban, Mohammed bin Qasim, and Sultan Mohammad Tughlak, all have blood-stained hands that the passage of years has not cleansed..Seen through Hindu eyes, the Muslim invasion of their homeland was an unmitigated disaster.

Islamic methods of punishment in India.

ā€œTheir temples were razed, their idols smashed, their women raped, their men killed or taken slaves. When Mahmud of Ghazni entered Somnath on one of his annual raids, he slaughtered all 50,000 inhabitants. Aibak killed and enslaved hundreds of thousands. The list of horrors is long and painful. These conquerors justified their deeds by claiming it was their religious duty to smite non-believers. Cloaking themselves in the banner of Islam, they claimed they were fighting for their faith when, in reality, they were indulging in straightforward slaughter and pillageā€¦ā€

A sample of contemporary eyewitness accounts of the invaders and rulers, during the Indian conquests

The  Afghan ruler Mahmud al-Ghazni invaded India no less than seventeen times between 1001 ā€“ 1026 AD. The book ā€˜Tarikh-i-Yaminiā€™ ā€“ written by his secretary documents several episodes of his bloody military campaigns : ā€œThe blood of the infidels flowed so copiously [at the Indian city of Thanesar] that the stream was discoloured, notwithstanding its purity, and people were unable to drink itā€¦the infidels deserted the fort and tried to cross the foaming riverā€¦but many of them were slain, taken or drownedā€¦ Nearly fifty thousand men were killed.ā€

In the contemporary record ā€“ ā€˜ Taj-ul-Maā€™asirā€™ by Hassn Nizam-i-Naishapuri, it is stated that when Qutb-ul- Din Aibak (of Turko ā€“ Afghan origin and the First Sultan of Delhi 1194-1210 AD) conquered Meerat, he demolished all the Hindu temples of the city and erected mosques on their sites. In the city of Aligarh, he converted Hindu inhabitants to Islam by the sword and beheaded all those who adhered to their own religion.

The Persian historian Wassaf writes in his book ā€˜Tazjiyat-ul-Amsar wa Tajriyat ul Asarā€™ that when the Alaul-Din Khilji (An Afghan of Turkish origin and second ruler of the Khilji Dynasty in India 1295-1316 AD) captured the city of Kambayat at the head of the gulf of Cambay, he killed the adult male Hindu inhabitants for the glory of Islam, set flowing rivers of blood, sent the women of the country with all their gold, silver, and jewels, to his own home, and made about twentv thousand Hindu maidens his private slaves.

This ruler once asked his spiritual advisor (or ā€˜Qaziā€™) as to what was the Islamic law prescribed for the Hindus. The Qazi replied:

ā€œHindus are like the mud; if silver is demanded from them, they must with the greatest humility offer gold. If a Mohammadan desires to spit into a Hinduā€™s mouth, the Hindu should open it wide for the purpose. God created the Hindus to be slaves of the Mohammadans. The Prophet hath ordained that, if the Hindus do not accept Islam, they should be imprisoned, tortured, finally put to death, and their property confiscated.ā€

Timur was a Turkic conqueror and founder of the Timurid Dynasty. Timurā€™s Indian campaign (1398 ā€“ 1399 AD) was recorded in his memoirs, collectively known as ā€˜Tuzk-i-Timuri.ā€™ In them, he vividly described probably the greatest gruesome act in the entire history of the world ā€“ where 100,000 Hindu prisoners of war in his camp were executed in a very short space of time. Timur after taking advice from his entourage says in his memoirs :

ā€œthey said that on the great day of battle these 100,000 prisoners could not be left with the baggage, and that it would be entirely opposed to the rules of war to set these idolaters and foes of Islam at liberty.

ā€œIn fact, no other course remained but that of making them all food for the swordā€™

Timur thereupon resolved to put them to death. He proclaimed :

ā€œthroughout the camp that every man who has infidel prisoners was to put them to death, and whoever neglected to do so should himself be executed and his property given to the informer. When this order became known to the ghazis of Islam, they drew their swords and put their prisoners to death. 100,000 infidels, impious idolaters, were on that day slain. Maulana Nasir-ud-din Umar, a counselor and a man of learning, who, in all his life had never killed a sparrow, now, in execution of my order, slew with his sword fifteen idolatrous Hindus, who were his captivesā€œ.

During his campaign in India ā€“ Timur describes the scene when his army conquered the Indian city of Delhi :

ā€œIn a short space of time all the people in the [Delhi] fort were put to the sword, and in the course of one hour the heads of 10,000 infidels were cut off. The sword of Islam was washed in the blood of the infidels, and all the goods and effects, the treasure and the grain which for many a long year had been stored in the fort became the spoil of my soldiers.

ā€œThey set fire to the houses and reduced them to ashes, and they razed the buildings and the fort to the groundā€¦.All these infidel Hindus were slain, their women and children, and their property and goods became the spoil of the victors. I proclaimed throughout the camp that every man who had infidel prisoners should put them to death, and whoever neglected to do so should himself be executed and his property given to the informer. When this order became known to the ghazis of Islam, they drew their swords and put their prisoners to death.ā€

The Mughal emperor Babur (who ruled India from 1526 -1530 AD) writing in his memoirs called the ā€˜Baburnamaā€™ ā€“  wrote : ā€ In AH 934 (2538 C.E.) I attacked Chanderi and by the grace of Allah captured it in a few hours.  We got the infidels slaughtered and the place which had been Daruā€™l-Harb (nation of non-muslims) for years was made into a Daruā€™l-Islam (a muslim nation).ā€

In Baburā€™s own words in a poem about killing Hindus (From the ā€˜Baburnamaā€™ ) he wrote :

ā€œFor the sake of Islam I became a wanderer,
I battled infidels and Hindus,
I determined to become a martyr
Thank God I became a Killer of Non-Muslims!ā€œ

The atrocities of the Mughal ruler Shah Jahan (who ruled India between 1628 ā€“ 1658 AD) are mentioned in the contemporary record called : ā€˜Badshah Nama, Qazinivi & Badshah Nama , Lahoriā€™ and goes on to state : ā€œWhen Shuja was appointed as governor of Kabul he carried on a ruthless war in the Hindu territory beyond Indusā€¦The sword of Islam yielded a rich crop of convertsā€¦.Most of the women (to save their honour) burnt themselves to death. Those captured were distributed among Muslim Mansabdars (Noblemen)ā€

The Afghan ruler Ahmad Shah Abdali attacked India in 1757 AD and made his way to the holy Hindu city of Mathura, the Bethlehem of the Hindus and birthplace ofKrishna.

The atrocities that followed are recorded in the contemporary chronicle called : ā€˜Tarikh-I-Alamgiriā€™ :

ā€œAbdaliā€™s soldiers would be paid  5 Rupees (a sizeable amount at the time) for every enemy head brought in. Every horseman had loaded up all his horses with the plundered property, and atop of it rode the girl-captives and the slaves. The severed heads were tied up in rugs like bundles of grain and placed on the heads of the captivesā€¦Then the heads were stuck upon lances and taken to the gate of the chief minister for payment.

ā€œIt was an extraordinary display! Daily did this manner of slaughter and plundering proceed. And at night the shrieks of the women captives who were being raped, deafened the ears of the peopleā€¦All those heads that had been cut off were built into pillars, and the captive men upon whose heads those bloody bundles had been brought in, were made to grind corn, and then their heads too were cut off. These things went on all the way to the city of Agra, nor was any part of the country spared.ā€

The Indian historian Professor K.S. Lal estimates that the Hindu population in India decreased by 80 million between 1000 AD and 1525 AD, an extermination unparalleled in World history. This slaughter of millions of people occurred over regular periods during many centuries of Arab, Afghan, Turkish and Mughal rule in India.

Many Indian heroes emerged during these dark times ā€“ including the 10th Sikh Guru ā€“ Guru Gobind Singh and also the Hindu Maratha king ā€“ Shivaji Maratha ā€“ who led the resistance against this tyranny and eventually led to its defeat by the late 1700s ā€“ after centuries of death and destruction.

is there a "hindu holocaust day"??
