We of the subcontinent can never forget the East India Company.
Thieves, murderers, convicts — lowest of the low arrived as fortune hunters to rape and pillage.
The Company was british Royal proxy for years.
‘Natives’ were untermensch.
I can’t get the image out of my mind in which a frail woman is carrying a ‘sahib’ on her shoulders, a normalized mode of transportation over steep terrain! One shameful image out of thousands.
Israel has shown us, by its appalling conduct in Gaza, who wears the description of untermensch perfectly.
