A single falsehood may not harm a civilization, but a continuous stream of thousands does, and history has taught us how destructive this can be.
In terms of modern history, Israel and India have a lot in common. They were both created in the fires of British colonization. To rule both, colonial rulers used a strategy known as “divide and conquer,” which involved pitting tribes or religious groups against one another to foster inter-group strife and prevent them from banding together against a single colonial foe.
Following World War II, Britain was still reeling from the staggering expenditures of war. Europe was in ruins. The world’s economies were shattered. As a result, the Empire sold off its colonial holdings. In the case of Israel (1948), the British withdrawal resulted in conflict and mass exile, while in India, it resulted in inter-religious carnage (1947).
