Gandhi: Behind the Mask of Divinity

Rate this book
Among prominent leaders of the twentieth century, perhaps no one is more highly regarded than Mahatma Gandhi. He is revered by the vast majority of Hindus as the hero of Indian independence, and many people throughout the world consider him to be a modern saint.In this explosive, intriguing, and provocative investigation, Colonel G. B. Singh charges that the popular image of Gandhi is highly misleading. Despite his famous philosophy of nonviolent resistance (satyagraha), Colonel Singh's analysis of the evidence leads him to conclude that Gandhi's ideology was in fact rooted in racial animosity, first against blacks in South Africa and later against whites in India. The author also finds evidence of multiple cover-ups designed to hide Gandhi's real history, including even collusion to cover up the murder of an American.This provocative thesis is sure to be controversial.

Gandhi: Behind mask of divinity is only about Zulu rebel and the time Gandhi spend in South Africa. I was expecting some more hidden truth about true personality of Gandhi.

بالنسبة لي هو شخص مميز

في أحيان كثيرة كنت اتمناه مسلم

البعض يتهمة بالعنصرية... و هالكتاب بالذات يبحث في هالموضوع

من خلال كتابات غاندي يستنتج الكاتب إن غاندي مجرد شخص عنصري

***

يجذبني إني اقرأ كتاب "ضد" ... قبل ما اقرأ كتاب "مع" ... مأخذي الوحيد

إن الكاتب كولونيل في الجيش الأمريكي... ما أعرف إذا كان مصدر موثوق

عموماً ... كتاب في قائمتي الشرائية..إن شاء الله
