Shivaji was genuinely secular. Not pseudo-secular
by Milind on Mar 13, 2008 01:54 AM

Shivaji used what is called Guerilla tactics (not sure of spelling) against a massive Mughal army and defeated it. During his capture of forts, he did not rape and plunder Muslim women like Muslim commanders did with non-muslims.

There is one story where his army commander tells Shivaji with pride that the wife of the muslim commander has been captured. Shivaji scolds the commander and asks the wife be returned with all respect. This is how we Hindus are taught role models. But it takes maturity in human evolution to understand such acts. Decendants of Barbaric Wife-stealing Arabs or Indians converted by sword who think they are Arabs will not understand this. All Indian muslims have Indian features. Not Arabic features. So dont behave like one. Do Amir/SRK look Arabic ? We Hindus encourage Musllims as Movie starts and sports stars. I am yet to see a Hindu movie star/sports star from Pakistan/Bangladesh. Dont you get any inferiority complex from us ? We gave you Pakistan and Bangladesh. See what you did with it ! Muslims killing Muslims!
