Gandhi... A Hero or a Hypocrite?

Many people will argue that Gandhi was just a Hypocrite who contradicted himself... While others will say he was a major part in getting India it's independance from British... The reason he's proclaimed a Hyprocrite and a British spoon was because he claimed he was a Man of Peace.. and Violence was not his ways, and NEVER WILL BE... But during the first War World, he deployed more than 100,000 Indian Soldiers to help the U.K... Around the world Indians were known for their bravery, many saying "Indians fighting in this brutal war for a country that is currently ruling their own?"... He was quoted "I would give up the finest sons of India to save the British Empire on its last dieing days"... That alone will make people wonder if he really was who the British propaganda makes out him to be... While hundreds of people were being slaughtered and women being raped, he was walking around in India "giving speeches"... Many people have his picture up on the walls idolizing him.. While many denounce him for his weak role and huge credit during the British Rule in India...
