This note would just address two points raised by Mr. 
Ajemi in his response to Velu's posting reg. relations
between India and Israel. Mr. Ajemi states that 
traditional Indian culture is closer to apartheid ?
I am just curious Mr. Ajamei knows what he is talking
about ? Even though aspects such as the caste system
and untouchability etc. are some of the undesirable
vestiges of the Indian setup to compare it to apartheid
is downright outrageous. 
The second point is Gandhi's acceptance of subjugation
of the blacks in South Africa. I am sure Ajemi's view
is grossly wrong. I think those who want to be informed
about Gandhi's life in South Africa should his autobiography
" MY experiments with truth ".
Surprisingly some folks do not unwittingly fail to expose
their bias, prejudice and ignorance. But I guess if 
we finally get informed then the end result is not all
that bad.
