@1刘华强 Hey CCP troll, Indian soldiers covered themselves in glory by fighting the Nazis who were the scourge of the earth back then. At that time it was the Nazis, today it is the fascist CCP. And don't call Indians slaves. We struggled against the biggest Imperialist power of the 19th and 20th century and won. Probably China has forgotten it's century of humiliation or the decades of slavery to the CCP which has killed more than 70 million Chinese civilians since 1949

@Brown Boy yes I agree most of the muslims are converted ... for example, my ancestors were brahman hindu (there is no turk/mongol link with us ) . they converted to muslim in 19th century . and I believe almost 60-70% muslims in Indian subcontinent are converted like us . Bear in my mind, arabs are also converted muslims , they were mostly pagan and jewish before they converted to muslim .
