1940s - Undivided India
The mullahs, Mulim fundamentalists et al rabidly oppose partition, want an undivided India.
The RSS, Hindu fundamentalists et al rabidly oppose partition, want an undivided India.
2002 - Pakistan
The mullahs et al want sweeping changes in the already Islamic constitution, tighten the Hudood ordinance, bring in a quasi-Taliban regime.
2002 - India
The VHP wants changes in the constitution that will put an end to secularism and make India a "Hindu nation". They want the preamble to the Constituion changed!!!
Notice how the two groups that opposed partition most vehemently make one think in hindsight (though only momentarily) that it was perhaps a good decision after all?
As a friend of mine said, fundamentalists feed off each other. There can not be one kind in India, without the other to train its guns on.
