The Pakistan Ideology also known as (AKA) The “Two” “Nation” Theory (TNT) Khan, Rai, Ali, Iqbal, and Jinnah vs The One Nation Theory (ONT) Gandhi, Nehru and Patel by  Moin-Ansari Updated on March 16th, 1996 ....I became more than ever convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days in the scheme of life. It was the rigid simplicity, the utter self-effacement of the prophet, the scrupulous regard for his pledges, his intense devotion to his friends and followers, his intrepidity, his fearlessness, his absolute trust in God and in his own mission.  These, and not the sword carried everything before them and surmounted every trouble. M.K. GANDHI YOUNG INDIA, 1924.  (10)  Plutarch expressed this sentiment well some centuries ago: A conqueror is always a lover of peace. He would like to make his entry into your cities unopposed. Does India talks peace in the Plutarchian sense? SUMMARY  AND ABSTRACT ON SOUTH ASIAN SCHISMS This article presents the arguments of political stratification and nation forming that were in the air in the Forties. The arguments against the Subcontinental nationhood are discussed at length. The arguments for a Pakistani nation are analyzed in depth. Arguments from both sides are presented and refuted. The history of Partition is not always in teleological progression. We have lost a lot of history by tracing our history by traveling through chronological diaries and self agrandizing boigraphies. Neither Pakistani nor Indian history books have done an adequate job of tracing our roots. Neither explain partition properly. The Pakistani text books ignore Hindu contributions to our common struggle against colonialism, and seem ashamed of the common lineage with Hindus
