Dear Santosh:
First of all i did not justify Gandhi's kiling. I would have called godse a
patriot and not 'misguided'
In fact i said that by kiling Gandhi, Godse gave his idelogy a fresh lease of
life. I tried to give a reason from Godse's point of view why he did what he
did .
The otherpont i made was that if taking anther persons life (except in self
defence and as george says in a just war) is wrong than all our revolutionary
heroeslike bhagat singh and others should be treated on par with Godse.
Also my reason about Godse s far from 'uncritical' It may very well be
diametically opposite to your views but in my humble opinion it doesnt make it
uncritical.
Regarding Godses's motive ,the cabiet decided to withold the money to pakistan
because of the war.gandhi went on his fast to death..the govt succumbed to the
pressure tactics and gave pakistan the money...thw money which was used to fuel
the war...proving again that when it came to national interest the congress was
ready to satisfy gandhis illgical demands at the cost of national security.
what part of this is exactly 'speculative' or 'based on ideology'
As for Jose Colaco, can he provide any evidence that Godse attacked gandhi
before ? to the best of my knowledge there was one unsuccesful attack on gandhi
a week back. It was jointly caried out by the godse brothers, madanlas pahwa,
vishnupant karkare.
Can jose provide the details of any attack before that?
As for Selma cardoso , have you noticed how cleverly she put the word RSS in
Jose's mouth? but that is besides the point.
