What a moron!

Mughal is nothing but Persian rendering of the word "Mongol"

Genghis Khan and his immediate descendants who invaded Persia and India in 13th century were known as "Mughal Kafirs" in Persian literature

Tolui Khan, the son of Genghis Khan, who in 1221 invaded Persia & utterly defeated, devastated and massacred Khorasan was called a "Mughal" in Persian Chronicles.

The word for & #39;Mongol& #39; in Persian is & #39;Mughal& #39;

From Sharjat Ul Atrak

Likewise, the Mongol armies of Genghis Khan& #39;s grandson Mongke Khan who invaded India in 1245 were known in Persian literature as "Mughal infidels"

Yes, the Mughals of Babur& #39;s line were speakers of Chagatai language which is a Turkic language. As such, they were not direct patrilineal descendants of Royal Mongol lineage even if they claimed matrilineal descent from Genghis Khan

Yet, the ultimate origin of these Altaic languages and their speakers is Altai mountain range in Western Mongolia.

Besides, there were clear ethnic differences between "Turks" and "Mughals" (even if "Mughals" themselves spoke a variety of Turkic language)

Even as late as 16th century, when there was a lot of "admixture" between "Turks", "Tajiks" and "Mughals", there were still some differences in Phenotype.

For the Author of Tarikh I Rashidi, A "Mughal" typically had Mongoloid features like short nose and no facial hair

We certainly come across such "Mongoloid features" of early Mughals of Babur& #39;s line in their paintings.
