  2. Hindu, in its historical and geographical context, refers to the rivers in the Indian plain—a region known for its hot climate. The warm weather made survival easier, but it also led to a certain laziness and, in extreme heat, impaired thinking. This is why great thinkers, like Buddha, emerged in the cooler mountains of Nepal. The hot plains did not produce horses, which made it easy for northern invaders with their cavalry to overrun the region. These invaders came in waves—Aryans, Persians, Turks, Mongols (or Mughals, who were Muslimized Mongolians). However, once they settled in this region, over time, they changed and became like the natives, losing their fighting spirit. This is why India has been the most invaded country in world history. 1,600 years ago, during the Tang Dynasty, a Chinese envoy named Wang Xuance went to India only to find a rebellion in progress. The rebel king had killed the old king and attempted to kill Wang. Wang escaped and sought help from Tibet, borrowing 7,000 soldiers from Nepal and 2,500 from Tibet. With this force, he easily defeated the rebel king's 30,000 troops, captured him, and sent him back to the Tang emperor. The emperor ordered a stone statue to be made, depicting the rebel king kneeling before him. This is why, even today, India still relies on soldiers from Nepal.

  4. No worry, just wait, one day when China take South Tibet, then all others will start at the same time, to get all of them back.

  5. India is the largest borrower from the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), a bank established for China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), even while claiming that the BRI is a debt trap. India has essentially put itself into this trap and now must pay off interest just like the other borrowers it criticized for falling into China's so-called debt trap.

  6. Another strange thing about Indians is that they don't seem to know themselves. They were a nation colonized—though some might say 'enslaved'—by the British, and they knew they suffered for it. They often cite that the British took $45 trillion over 225 years, calculating this based on 20 million pounds per year. So, after independence, one would expect India to align with other suppressed and bullied countries. However, that's not the case. Instead, India began to act like its former master toward its neighbors, despite not having the same strength. For example, in the 1960s, it pushed its army positions into China. Mao was puzzled by this, saying he thought about it for 10 days and nights but couldn't figure out what was wrong with the country or what was in Nehru's mind. Finally, he ordered the Chinese army to fight back, and the rest is history.

  7. Indians are very peculiar. There was never an entire country called India. Churchill once said, 'To say there is a country called India is like saying the equator is a country.' It was the British who brought all the regions together. There was never a 'Bharat Arkand'—no such thing. It was merely a plan, or perhaps a dream, in the 1940s by some Indians based on the British Raj, envisioning a country after the British left. However, due to the partition with Pakistan, it never materialized. Now, Indians are reviving this idea, even incorporating it into their new parliament building.
