I did ask you several questions in the previous posts in the hope you would take a more mature stance but I am yet again bitterly disappointed. Calling oneself a Historian and a Sikh does not make one. I will say this to clear your illusion that I do not post under any other names unlike yourself. "People who live in glass houses do not throw stones at others. If is clearly beyond your capacity to respond sensibly, why not bring those who claim to be Sikhs and have written the essay. Why are they hiding? Let them defend themselves.
It is clearly not your or the forums intention to let the truth out.
Ekmusafir_ajnabi |
yet another case of ekmusafir getting away with insulting people with no action from mods.
why is this person not subject to the same rules of the forum as the rest of us? |
