Using the same analogy as before, there is no language knows as "Indian". Indians are indistiguishable from Pakistanis, Bangladeshis, etc. Until after the Brits left, there was never a land called India governed by Indians.

One slight difference, kumar. Correct me if I'm wrong, kumar, but I don't believe that the Indians teach their children or proclaim through their officials that India was an autonomous country inhabited by the Indian people from the dawn of time until the British conquered it.

India should not exist, because it never existed as an autonomous entity until the Brits came in.... there is no language knows as "Indian". Indians are indistiguishable from Pakistanis, Bangladeshis, etc

Ahhh, if the Brits had only stayed home! :>)

Please direct me to a reference for the historical founding of Palestine as an
autonomous self governing entity with distinct geographical boundaries from
which a unique culture and people arose with their own language and culture.
