    The above is the result of years of collection by BR members, with pruning to give you the best links. Read Dr. Shiv Sastry’s ebook on Terroriststan, if nothing else (4th link from the top in the list).

  • 2. B Shantanu said:

    Ashish: Thanks.

    To that I would add this post at #7:
    Pakistani Education, or how pakistan became what it is: Curricula and textbooks in Pakistan
    (Must Read, 512KB download)

    I have marked them both in bold for ease of reference.

    Shantanu: Thanks for adding the textbooks.

    People: Se how teh Pak establishment (ie the Army/Mohajir etc) has raised a generation of Pakistanis who have been formally taught, through their school textbooks:
    1. That Muslims are suprerior to Hindus
    2. That Hindus can never be trusted
    3. That Hindus have always conspited to keep Pakistan down
    4. Jihad and Shahadat are your duty, and you have to write essays praising these things.

    This is why it is hard to reason with many Pakistanis (Pakistani Baloch, or Balawaristani, or Sindhi, or other Pak people who have seen thru Islamabad’s policies are much more pro-India, though they still think Hindus are kafirs etc) .

    The hate being taught against hindus in pak textbooks, to children who are very young, is truly disturbing. Here is a report created by a Pakistani institution on this disturbing aspect of their education. It tells you how muslim kids are systematically indoctrinated with a totally fabricated version of history to hate hindus.

    (Pl. go to chapter 2, page 25)
