You have ever read any of our school text books, kiddo?
As for "Gandhi was a racist" its not Pakistani based story, its from the US Congressional Record.
Pakistanis draw the entire ideology of Pakistan from trying to defame Mahatma Gandhi and calling him a player of religious politics. I don't blame them because their school text books are riddled with such obscure facts.
Gandhi always believed in the unity of Hindus and Muslims. And History recognises Gandhi for the same.
If Gandhi was flawed in anyway, I believe his flaw was that he strong supported Nehru to become India's first Prime Minister. As we all know, Nehru was India's most incapable Prime Minister. If we had Sardar Patel as our first PM.. the kashmir issue wouldn't have existed or at least the entire state of J&K would be a part of India

Lol!
I can find around two dozen ethinicites here in India and if taken individually they're all "minorities"....Assamese, Bodos, Dalits, Manipuris, Tamils, and other minorities.
Sure, tamils are getting killed...perhaps that is the reason why Tamil Nadu - the state with a Tamil Majority population ranks third when it comes to development.
THAT piece of Congressional Record is worthy to be used as a toilet paper - if you're not a worshipper of White skin!
What I wonder is how such "pile of poo" (as someone described it) gets into congressional records?
From my POV all it does is give some amount of credibility to these human rights advocates.

Does anyone here actually know what the muslim leagues' demands were before they called for 'direct action' on the non-muslims and urged their constituency to become ghazis and keep non-muslim women as mal-e-ghanimat?
Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela... two famous Black leaders referred to Gandhi in their speeches...
But yea.. the Pakistanis think he is racist...
Remember, when someone says Mahatma Gandhi, 90% of the literate world recognises that name.
I doubt even 1% know who Jinnah is.. and those that do.. outside Pakistan... recognise him as a player of religious politics rather than Gandhi..
Gandhi was a grass-roots leader that lead many non-resistance movements against the british, not only in India but also in South Africa.. What did Jinnah do? He used to preach wearing a suit and a tie and talked about an Islamic Republic of Pakistan..
The only reason I can see Pakistanis for attacking Gandhi is for cementing their own ideology of Pakistan and trying to bridge the huge gap between Gandhi and Jinnah as independence leaders
The way I see it, you either believe in the person or the legend. When one believes in the legend what they see is larger than life. When one believes in the person there will always be room to find fault, real or not, matters or not.
If you believe in the legend of the Lone Ranger you see a force for justice, for freedom, for equality, and for life. If you believe the Lone Ranger to be a man, then he was just another vigilante with a Native American slave...

I agree completely with this Administration’s goal of a regime change in Iraq-John Kerry
even if that enforcement is mostly at the hands of the United States, a right we retain even if the Security Council fails to act-John Kerry
He may even miscalculate and slide these weapons off to terrorist groups to invite them to be a surrogate to use them against the United States. It’s the miscalculation that poses the greatest threat-John Kerry
