Kashmir United -- A Peek into a Luton Ghetto

#107, 108, tahmed32- you are sadly mistaken. It is a fact that during the late middle ages different regions of the world were almost equally developed. The industry in India at the time of the British colonization was more developed than that of Britain. Britain ruined it and treated the indigeneous folk like vermin, put India, and other colonized areas by wholesale theft, back by atleast a century, and currently their domination of trade, the US elite and their British clients, are causing immense misery all over the world. According to the trade report published by Oxfam, can be read at http://maketradefair.com, it states ``Northern governments reserve the most restrictive barriers for the world`s poorest people...Trade restrictions in rich countries cosot developing countries around $100 Billion a year- which is TWICE as much as they receive in aid.``

If the British had not ransacked India, India could have been a global power at the current time, on par with any developed country. Your ``Nawab`` and poverty analysis is BS, no where is there greater inequality in the developed world than in the US with a gini index of over 0.85 almost near total inequality; with 1% of the wealthiest owning more wealth than the rest of the 99% combined.

#113, these ``forced marriage`` diatribes are just a distraction, things like this, the ``opposition culture`` arises because of things like the ones mentioned above. The colonials ruined us, destroyed our institutions, ghettoized us, as a result what you`re going to see is a reactionary culture that reproduces itself. Even if you try to assimilate into the so called British culture, they will still reject you, look down upon you and their institutions will block your progress, a few individuals here n there might make it through but for the social aggregates IMPOSSIBLE- mere distraction tactics and a legitimation of the superior subordinate worldview perpetuated by the (damn) fool British neo-colonials- look at the way the barbarians attacked Iraq and then they call themselves enlightened.
