1. not one kind word about the old antisemite Gandhi!
tom ,   tel aviv   (08.01.11)
2. Gandhi was anti-zionist, but was not anti-jewish
Mr. Peabody ,   London   (08.01.11)
there is a difference
3. Gandhi never understood the depth of Jewish problem
Marco ,   Spain   (08.02.11)
He never intervened in the struggle of any other national liberation movement, he singled out Zionism because of his British Antisemitic education and connections to the Muslim community in South Africa.
4. #2 Peabody: Ghandi was anti-Jewish
dante ,   uk   (08.02.11)
in Ghandi's view, the Jews were expendable. his staggering and inexcusable stupidity about german intentions led him to advise Jewish passivity in the face of savage attacks and genocide. ghandi actually thought that the germans were no different from the british.
5. Obviously just like you are Mr. Peabody..?!

6. #1: You are confused
LebanonPride ,   Canada   (08.02.11)
Ghandi was no way an anti-Semite. People can be against Israel and not be anti-Semetic. It's true. Israel is a country. Judaism is a religion. And Arabs are also semites.
7. 6. u r biased and unwilling to accept any truth that does
(08.02.11)
not fit ur agenda. That is ur agenda to prove that u don't unreasonably despise Israel because it's a Jewish state....u simply have hated Israel ur entire life and teach ur children and their children to hate Israel...and ur sure that there must be a good reason. The fact that the same reasoning when applied to any other nation state in the world does not make u feel hatred against them...is just a pesky annoying side-issue, and has NOTHING to do with the fact that ur an anti Semite. Right?
8. 2. what's the difference?
(08.02.11)
we are allowed to live as long as we don't get too uppity?
