Howard Stern said it best. He asked Ed Bradley whether he hates anybody? Ed Bradley says not since he was a child. Stern's basic argument is that(he didn't say this in the 60 minutes interview, but that's how he wanted to say it, he claims) Ed Bradley can't tell him that he doesn't hate Bin Laden and Hitler. There are people out there that everybody hates. By the way, about Gandhi, you might find this interesting: "According to Mr. Fischer, Gandhi's view was that the German Jews ought to commit collective suicide, which "would have aroused the world and the people of Germany to Hitler's violence." After the war he justified himself: the Jews had been killed anyway, and might as well have died significantly. One has the impression that this attitude staggered even so warm an admirer as Mr. Fischer, but Gandhi was merely being honest. If you are not prepared to take life, you must often be prepared for lives to be lost in some other way. When, in 1942, he urged non-violent resistance against a Japanese invasion, he was ready to admit that it might cost several million deaths." http://www.online-literature.com/orwell/898/ Gandhi goes a bit too far sometimes. Non-violence doesn't always work.
