A better question - how many think that Kunti was not at fault?

Imo

Kunti was at fault for never acknowledging Karna as her son from the beginning. It would have raised many questions and such but it wasn't fair to Karna and may have decreased Dury's power.

But, Kunti is not responsible for Dury's hatred to the Pandavas and his actions and such. Imo Dury would have probably done the same deeds as Shakuni would still be with him. Only Dury would have been weaker without Karna.

Kunti may have had her own reasons for abandoning Karna.

But the fact that she revealed the truth SO LATE and ALSO got Karna to promise that he would spare 4 / 5 Pandavas in the war, ONLY suggests what her true intentions were in revealing the truth to him.

More than Krishna's presence on the Pandava side, I feel THIS promise of Karna to Kunti is what made the victory of the Pandavas virtually secure.

While Karna refused to give any promises to spare Arjuna, the curses that he himself had received (early on in his life) became his own undoing.

So, yeah, ALL Pandavas survived the Karna onslaught - first, due to the promise that Kunti herself got from him, and then, the curses...

Kunti is a mistake in Karna's life, not the other way round.

Kunti's biggest fault was Karna. but it was nowhere related to Duryodhan's hatred towards pandavas except fr the fact it wouldve been stronger bcoz here it'll be 6.

if Kunti wanted to tell karna the truth at dis point and ask Biksh/ daan, she couldve asked fr nt participating in the war. but sadly it didnt happen.

but today also i still dun get the point of Karna's hatred towards pandavas and esp Arjun when he clearly was silent all the tym.

Kunti, despite all her intelligence and virtues did fail Karna big time. I can understand why she hid her secret before marriage (society pressure) but she should have revealed the truth to her husband after their marriage. Isn't honesty and trust between spouses an essential component of stri dharma?

Who knows if Pandu would have even asked for more sons once he knew Karna was Kunti's son? In those days, as long as a husband accepted his wife's child, he was considered their son.

His anger is about Dhronacharya not accepting him as his student and promising to make Arjun the best Archer in the world.
