Iagree cent percent to Mr B chattopadhyaON ALL POINTS.
our maharajas in rajasthan gave refuge n five main vaishnava dieties are still in rajasthan
at jaipur/nathdwara udaipur and karauli .
We still have a muslim comunity called KAYYAMKHANIS
In rajasthan who after forced converstion from being rajputs DID ONLY MARRY among converted rajputs and to this day observe some hindu and muslim customs . We even have regiment allocation for recruitment in indian army as they are a very brave community .
Rajasthan ajmer sharif is the centere of the sufi thought . what we want from our muslim brethren fellow citizens ---IS LEARN FROM HISTORY....ACCEPT THE TRUTH OF HAPPENINGS--- N SEE THE GREAT BENIFITS OF BEING TOLERENT AND LOVINGLY BROADMINDED LIKE THE SUFI SAINTS ...
THE MUSIC QAVALIS...FLORALDECORATIONS...SERVICE TO THE POOR ...
Lets live like a great nation and BUT DONT TRY PROTECT WRONG DOINGS AND HIDE HISTORY.

You are right, I would only like to add that the so called egalitarianism of Islam is also a MYTH. It is trotted out every time some apologist wants to ignore/defend the fascist tendencies of Islam and many times even justify the cruelties perpetrated on Hindus. The reality was highlighted by none other than Dr. Ambedkar in his book "The Partition of India", the chapter to read is:
"Muslim Society is even more full of social evils than Hindu Society is"

All we hope is Islam also sees the mistakes made in the past, take note and lesson learned and progresses in CORRECT direction.
The word I used was "HOPE".
Beacuse reading the views does not make me believe that there is any lesson learned.
