[QUOTE="Lily, post: 1042499, member: 1283"] How the hell does anyone in the 17th century begin to be knowledgeable about population sizes? In the 70's there were 4 billion people. The denominator matters, Holliday. "Pakistani soldiers and local pro-Pakistan militias killed between [B][COLOR=rgb(250, 197, 28)]300,000 and 3,000,000 Bengalis[/COLOR][/B] and [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rape_during_the_Bangladesh_Liberation_War']raped between 200,000 and 400,000 Bengali women[/URL] in a systematic campaign of [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_murder']mass murder[/URL] and [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genocidal_rape']genocidal sexual violence[/URL]." (Wiki) As atrocious as that it...and it is atrocious, the range is insane. 300k to 3 million? Those are estimates? I call horseshit to have a range that's made with a 10 fold number from the bottom estimate. Let's not forget the role that England played in all the ethnic wars in that region with their arbitrary partitioning of lands and peoples. Europeans killed more European Jews than what you've presented to me so far. Europeans caused the death of more indigenous people in the Americas than what you've presented to me so far. You're wrong and don't have the number to prove anything that you've asserted. [/QUOTE]
