A pacifism which can see the cruelties only of occasional military warfare and is blind to the continuous cruelties of our social system is worthless.
Whilst power, superimposed, always needs the help of the police and the military, power generated from within should have little or no use of them.
All I want to say, with the utmost emphasis at my command, is that the description of India as a military country is wrong.
God forbid that India should ever become a military nation, which would be a menace to the peace of the world, and yet if things went on as they were doing, what hope was there for India and, therefore, for the world?

What is a war criminal? Was not war itself a crime against God and humanity, and, therefore, were not all those who sanctioned, engineered, and conducted wars, war criminals?

England, America and Russia have all of them got their hands dyed more or less red - not merely Germany and Japan.
