M K Gandhi And The Gandhian Legacy

[Sunder]

Before we start dissing Gandhi, I would like to draw your attention to his Quotes on COWARDICE... I think Gandhi's Ahimsa has been selectively projected by the politicians to make a weakling out of the indian population. Here are some Quotes from MK.Gandhi.

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->"Non-violence and cowardice are contradictory terms. Non-violence is the greatest virtue, cowardice the greatest vice. Non-violence springs from love, cowardice from hate. Non-violence always suffers, cowardice would always inflict suffering. Perfect non-violence is the highest bravery. Non-violent conduct is never demoralising, cowardice always is. "<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->

<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->I would risk violence a thousand times than the emasculation of a whole race.
<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
