The natives of India who converted to Islam and Christianity are suffering from "Stockholm Syndrom" (pl search the web if you do not what this phrase means).
They are now eulogizing the aggressors forgetting the fact that it was their ancestors who suffered at their hands.
This trend is more prevalent in the converts in India. The converts in South East Asian countries (like Korea, Japan, Vietnam, etc) keep their native names even after conversion unlike those in India who adopt the names of Biblical characters or Arabic names.

I am not a Mawali (non-arab muslim). I am a direct descendent of Abu Talib ibn Abd al-Muttalib, the prophet's uncle.
