India has a long history of forgiveness. Prithviraj Chauhan defeated Mohammed Gauri seventeen times and forgave him each time. But after the only battle Gauri won, he ordered Prithviraj’s blinding. Forgiveness is a good virtue but it may not be the best policy always.

I think you are given dose a imaginery history.OC did not fight for 17 times. Mere skirmishes should not be called as wars. And as of forgiveness, I dont think he has any reason to do so? Basically, we are not forgiving type.
