Everyone talks about going back in time to kill Hitler, but no one talks about going back to kill Lord Clive. After the British conquered Bengal they killed a third of the population.

Is this who Indiana Jones refers to in Temple of doom. ?

@Loukas

It is the scene where Indiana, Willy and Short round approach pankok palace, during the conversation which turns to the history of the palance, jones says he is interested in what happend further back to the time of Clive (up to now I thought he said clide)

The conversation may have been while they were at dinner, but it was during that part of the movie at least.

@zleap Yes, sounds like Clive. That clip just reminded me what an awful racist movie it is, and part of the whole European-American tradition of laughing at genocides.

@Loukas

Thanks, I am just going to share the wikipedia article on Lord Clive for anyone who would like to try and learn more about what he did etc
