Three points of view(M, K, D) relative to Iz!am with respect to the large scale temple demolition in medieval India:

M: Destruction of temples was necessary & pious act sanctioned by theology as temples were the center for worship of false gods of Kafirs.Maintain the status quo.
Kafir (H in this case): It was an evil act of Jihad. These are symbols of the oppression of Kafirs. As supposedly we are 'free', our sacred temples must be freed from the forcible colonial occupation of invaders.
Dhimmi: It had nothing to do with religion. It was done for wealth, politics, etc. They didn't destroy all the temples. No judgment should be passed. Anyway, it happened in the 'past'. Hindus must forget it and learn to live with it. Maintain the status quo.

"You cannot ask me to change the genius of my culture, the genius of my religion. There is no free for all situation here. You convert & I convert & whoever has a better organization is going to convert more. This is not a percentage of the market. Here it is one-sided...
..I cannot change the genius of my culture bcoz I don't believe in conversion.

Conversion is violence. It is pure violence. It wipes out cultures. It is not merely violence against people, it is violence against people who are committed to non-violence.

My dharma is not violence. It does not allow conversion, and that dharma has to be protected. The State has to protect it. If the protector does not protect, people should have a new protector to protect. " - Swami Dayanand Saraswati

4 factors behind the myth:
1. You have to just put a slogan, there is a stampede behind it & it comes to be taken as one of those 'truths that we hold self-evident'. No one looks up anything. Most have not heard anything beyond the assertion that Ambedkar wrote the Constitution..
.. a 'fact' which by now has sunk into their visual cortex because at every turn they see statues of Ambedkar holding the Constitution.

2. Reproducing records in the partial form: Only those passages are reproduced in which he is speaking in the assembly..
. From among the speeches of the last session in which everyone was thanking everyone for the contributions he had made, only those portions of the passage in which the member is complimenting Ambedkar are reproduced.

Kashi Vishwanath temple complex, with the Nandi statue (photo taken in the 1880s). Nandi is still facing the Gyanvyapi mosque which was originally the Vishwanath temple. The Nandi has been waiting!!! Image
A sketch of the Gyanvyapi mosque/Vishwanath temple by James Princep in 1831. There was a clash between Hindus and Muslims in 1809 when Hindus tried to construct a small shrine on the narrow strip of land between the mosque and the temple. They seem to have succeeded. Image
The Gyanvyapi mosque, with the remains of the temple wall visible on the backside.
Saqa Mustad Khan in his contemporary work Masir-i-Alamgiri: "It was reported that according to the emperor's [Aurangzeb] command, his officers had demolished the temple of Vishwanath at Kashi." Image

Apart from the fact that the symbol used by Hitler was not Swastika but Hooked Cross (Haken Kreuz), here is what the Chief Rabbi of Israel stated in a joint declaration of the second Hindu-Jewish summit in 2008: "Swastika is an ancient and greatly auspicious symbol...
..of the Hindu Tradition. It is inscribed on Hindu temples, ritual altars, entrances, and even account books. A distorted version of this sacred symbol was appropriated by the Third Reich in Germany..The participants recognise that this symbol is, and has been sacred to Hindus.. Image
...for millennia, long before its misappropriation."

@yodaberg If you have an issue, first take it up with your ex-chief Rabbi and Jew leadership, it's them who affirmed #Swastika as an auspicious and sacred symbol to Hindus. #SwastikaIsSacred Image

Didn't think would have to state the obvious. But for some blockheads who in the replies are talking absolute nonsense (Hindus applied less, Muslims applied more that's why they got more, etc) :
