The gift of British colonialism. It never stops.
British colonialism caused Islamic terror in India. You should stick to blaming the zionists.
British colonialism created the environment to let stuff like this flourish. You should stick to denying the Holocaust.
Please enlighten us oh wise one, what "environment" did British colonialism create to "let stuff like this flourish"?
Do you honestly think that British colonialism left a happy world? It's really sad how history education has fallen in priority. At least start on Wikipedia and then go into more serious texts. Here is a link for you:

British colonialism made productive societies out of shit holes. When the British left they returned to being shitholes for the most part. All colonialism was in history is a brief gap of peace and prosperity for the majority of the countries colonized before returning to there natural order of things. (Countries that had a history/culture beforehand).
I guess if slaughtering unarmed people in a stadium or forcing people to grow fabric crops instead of food and watching them starve to death is considered a productive society, then yes, I agree with you.
You know some people use kitchen knives to commit murder as well? The benefits of the education, infrastructure, skills, and modernism brought to the undeveloped world far outweighs the supposed freedoms they temporarily lost (that they didn't even knew existed) as we brought them up to modernity. If we had worked harder to do that with Islam we would not be having the issues we have now of barbarians who resort to medieval fashions to get there point across. You can sit there and blame the west, and Britain and colonization and culture saturation and whatever other bullshit excuse you want to use, it boils down to the fact these cultures have not changed in a 100 years even with the rise of democracy and the fall of authoritarian and theocracies around the world.
Sometimes there is no hope. India should deal with the terrorists it has with a heavy hand, do it quickly and wipe them out, take the temporary and mandatory international scorn and than move on with life.
Here's a nice little source showing the benefits of colonization and missionaries on areas of barbarism.

(To clarify, not only was certain colonizes areas barbaric, the majority of Europe was a cesspool of barbarism before the Greeks and Romans colonized it. It's not just Africa and the SE Asia that was colonized, history is a little longer than 1000 years)
