Political Career

Call me a jaahil (ignoramus), but i don't know what someone is trying to say in the following:

Governor General of Pakistanmore amenable to British interests: he supported Indian participation in World War II while the Indian National Congress opposed the war.

Jinnah wasn't the Governor General of Pakistan when he allegedly supported the World War II (ended in 1945). He became the Governor General of Pakistan in 1947. If it is result of bad editing, then someone (may be I?) can correct it.

I would also like the know if there are links (or bibliographical references) to support the notion that the Indian National Congress opposed the Indian participation in World War II, and Jinnah (or Muslim League) supported the British. Please remember that this from an ignoramus!


Pizza Puzzle's Comments

Why has Dan Keshet decided to delink parts of this article; what grounds does he have to determine that the links are "silly". I believe one can easily turn off all links, if they are bothersome. Pizza Puzzle

Photos

Wonderful photos added. They need frames and captions.iFaqeer (Talk to me!) 10:30, Dec 1, 2004 (UTC)

There seem to be more photos here than text. :D
The odd thing is that the most common image of Jinnah in Pakistan, the one with a Karakuli cap and in sherwani, is not here.iFaqeer (Talk to me!) 01:18, Dec 7, 2004 (UTC)

POV in "Political Career"

I have rewritten Mohammad_Ali_Jinnah#Political_Career to reduce the level of POV. It still needs a longer quote from that speech to provide more perspective--and show what it is that the theocrats quote.iFaqeer (Talk to me!) 22:22, Dec 28, 2004 (UTC)

hhhmmm ....

a very poorly written article indeed.... seems to be written by a bunch of fifth graders.... i think i need to rewrite quite a large part of it, but can anyone (ifaqeer..?) look for some better quality pictures ..?

Very biased against Jinnah

Is it me or this this article very biased against Jinnah, constantly citing sources and writing in a manner that shows him in bad light as the source of ultimate evil or something. Hitler's article shows him in better light than this one about Jinnah. Totally biased.

Biased, but somewhat true

Well you gotta admit, the guy was responsible for more deaths of Muslim brethren than Hitler's extermination camps were, and more than the US lost in WW I and II combined. And Hindus, Sikhs, and other people were also killed, while many millions more were displaced. Not to mention the effects today (two nuclear armed nations indulging in what seems like constant warfare).
