nd. Alert: Arundhati Roy has just lost the extreme esteem I held her in, and gained my passionate contempt. In the forward of a recent book she decided to do what she could to destroy Gandhi. This is the equivalent of the following: a group is trapped in a cave... they hear a dam broken behind them and the torrent of water about to destroy them in seconds... there is one huge wooden step in front of them that would get them high enough to reach a ledge where they could sprint to safety... the step is not high enough to save them... but it would get them to the ledge that IS high enough... they are about to heave themselves onto that step when a hugely respected leader among them, Ms. Roy, screams... "NO, THE STEP IS FLAWED, IT IS ONLY HALF HIGH ENOUGH TO SAVE US, IT IS SOMEWHAT CROOKED, IT IS FLAWED, I HAVE THIS SLEDGE HAMMER... AND I'M GOING TO DESTROY THAT STEP!!!!" HUH?????????????? Without that step... Gandhi, with all his flaws... probably No Martin Luther King Jr, and No...so many other Unviolent warriors since. WHAT?????????? WE WOULD BE BETTER OFF BY DESTROYING, WEAKENING, HURTING THIS FLAWED STEP.... GANDHI???????????? WHAT THE HELL????? WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?
