e: at least the Hindu ones, then we split the whole country down the middle and gave half of it to muslim fundamentalists just to gently caress Ghandi and against advice at the time. Killing up to 500,000 people and leading to the lovely situation we find today.

Woah, woah, woah, I don't think someone like Jinnah can be characterized as a Muslim fundamentalist. The partition of India was a complex process that was as much born out of Muslim alienation from the Indian National Congress, often greased along by its perceived attitude as a Hindu nationalist party, Gandhi usually didn't help a whole lot with that perception.
