Saturday Snippet: By Jingo, we'll do it!
The term "Jingoism" has become an epithet for hard-line, extreme nationalism, and as such has fallen out of favor.

(America had its own version of Jingoism: among others, see the works and speeches of President Theodore Roosevelt for a multitude of examples.) Rudyard Kipling was a British Jingoist in that sense, although he was much more than a mere mindless puppet of Imperial propaganda. ... read more

Lt. Gen AAK Niazi signing the Instrument of Surrender In the Middle Ages and the early modern age, the Muslims were not a minority in the Indian subcontinent.
