He thinks he is Gandhi
Glenn should study the biographies of Mohandas Gandhi. He really does not want to go seriously weird like the Mahatma.
FWIW, Gandhi rose to the rank of sergeant major in the British Army, Royal Indian Regiments during WWI. He furiously suppressed this part of his past during his `peaceful nonviolent’ stage.
My foot. Gandhi went on hunger strikes to frighten the British to doing his will, knowing that if he died there would be horrendous riots with thousands killed.
The Mahatma practiced violent tactics by indirect means.
