Did you know that were multiple cases of Indians - and their variants - rebelling against British officers during the Pacific War?
Two most prominent are:

Christmas Island:
>A group of Punjabi troops, apparently believing Japanese propaganda concerning the liberation of India from British rule, and probably acting with the tacit support of some or all of the local Sikh police officers, mutinied. On 11 March, they shot and killed [the commanding officer] and the four British enlisted men (...) and tossed their bodies into the sea. They then locked up the district officer and the few other European inhabitants of the island pending an execution that apparently was thwarted by the Japanese occupation.
They only ended up serving imprisonment and labour. The British dropped the case in the 50s.

& Coco Islands:
>Jeet Ceylonese nationalists embarrassingly fail to kill all the British and loyalist forces on the island, only killing one loyalist jeet, before being overpowered and arrested. Jeet ringleader was executed expecting to die as a national hero and the Ceylonese were delegated to support units for the rest of the war.

>Japan wanted the liberation of India. Indian nationalists supported Japan
Well, the second part of that is true. I don't think you understand what Japan meant by 'liberation' though, it's the sort of thing that would make the British rule of India look like something you'd beg for in comparison.

You have no idea what genocide is.
Have you ever seen soldiers shooting people in the head on an industrial scale? That's how genocide works.

>employ soldiers either by force, being voluntold or making it si that the only jobs worth a shit are in the armed forces
>act surprised when such a system backfires in a multitude of ways.
Britain did this to itself.

British promised them independence. The brits renegaded. The indian independence movement happened. Japanese supported that and used that to divide the Indians supporting British empire. When the war was lost, the Indian independence movement leaders became a symbol of India and British no longer had moral or legal authority to pursue the charges

Forgetting a few points:
Britain united India (and then some)
British people taught Indians the idea of nationalism

Important context
>>
>>18370520
India was being united under Marathas who were fighting the Mughal Muslims and were close to unifying the country.

>British invented nationalism
wut, virtually every old empire on earth had a form of nationalism that united them as an entity.

1. No, they weren't you delusional brown person.
2. Didn't say that. I said they introduced modern ideas, like nationalism, to India. The Congress Party was started by a British person, even.

>>18370537
You mean the modern civic system. Which is fine, but that itself is a Chinese invention. I understand what you're saying tho. The national governance structure itself is a legacy of British empire that most countries in the world now adopted.

Such as?

>Britain united India
They created the basis of India but saying they "united" it is a fallacy. There was no huge ass India that encompassed all of India. That's like saying they united Kenya.

>British people taught Indians the idea of nationalism
Multiple sources. The topic of nationalism was something that spread among the peoplea through various sources on top of the movement of people to and from the other colonies as well as Europe.

You've got absolutely no concern for reality or truth, do you?

The independence of India
