  6. Michael Crichton's Dragon Teeth is an entertaining Wild West quest for dinosaur bones set amidst the war between US Army and Native Americans. Easy quick read, but lacks the depth of his famous books.

    >> If there's evidence for some structure built over an ancient one, it should be contested in the judiciary

    You continue to obfuscate and conflate.

    The claim to #RamJanmaBhoomi still remains unproven

    Religious zealots forced #SCOINDIA to give it a veneer of respectability despite any proof that #Rama was born at that specific geolocation in #Ayodhya.

    That set an ugly precedent, and we are already seeing #DragonTeeth appear in other locations, most recently in #Varanasi #India

    >> existence of a past structure is not enough evidence of existence of someone

    That strikes at the HEART of #RamJanmaBhoomi claim. That's where #SCOINDIA massively erred, & that's why #DragonTeeth will continue to grow in #Indian soil

    >> existence of the said character is "irrelevant"… what's "important" is the underlying social/spiritual message presented by the literary work.

    Legal disputes are settled on evidence, NOT on "social/spiritual message presented by literary work"

    It’s OK to disagree with someone and use #belief or #faith as your argument, but it is not OK to give that a veneer of #truth by presenting questionable evidence, as you did with #Swastika and as you continue to do with #India’s #DragonTeeth problem.

    Your selective choice of evidence ONLY when it suits you puts your dishonesty on display for the whole world to see.

    >> it's best to let the judiciary decide on this matter

    Sure, let 34 justices decide everything in a land of 1.4 billion.

    The 34 justices of #SCOINDIA will crap their pants and sarees if a credible dispute ever arises over #TajMahal or #JamaMasjid.

    This is the point you keep missing and are unable to engage on.

    These are not simplistic real estate issues involving contemporaneous parties. Separated by centuries, this is more than "your house". These are historic, cultural, and religious monuments as well.

    And who has standing here?

    At the time of partition in 1947 people were free to CHOOSE which side of the 2 borders they wanted to live in.

    Most #Muslims chose E or W #Pakistan, but many chose #secular #India.

    Are you familiar with #VijayaDashmi & #Muharram, both of which frequently fall on the same day, with massive processions of #Hindus & massive processions of #Muslims winding simultaneously through narrow streets?

    Both sides did live in communal harmony until #Hindutva.

    The new #DragonTeeth mosque will be built in relatively close proximity to the new #Ayodhya #RamTemple.

    Decades or centuries for now, both monuments will draw mutually antagonist religious crowds, and at some point, some trigger will wreak the unfortunate.

    #Muslims have lived in India since 10th c. Can't call them foreign.

    You keep missing that what some invaders did centuries ago (even if reprehensible) CANNOT be corrected today by other reprehensible means. See #SocietiesAreNotStatic.

    You don't need a Time Machine. You need hindsight ability. Use that to project into the future

  44. RT GlasnostGone: To be fair, any Ukrainian tank or armoured vehicle could push Russia's anti-tank dragon teeth out the way - because they're not fixed to the ground. They're simply placed on the ground, so easy to push/pull aside. They've even got handy metal handles making it easier to pull them
