As an Eastern European frankly I’m fed up of this British and American bashing. These places were heaven compared to the raids of mongols, Turks, soviets, and everything else in Central Europe.

I really don't understand your point. Mongol raids happened, so it's fine to brush the atrocities of the Raj under rug? Bit of a non-sequitor.

Let's turn it around. "I'm fed up of all the Soviet bashing. It was heaven compared to the Congo under King Leopold." See? Not a nice reply is it?
