DURING the inhuman British colonization there were approximately 25 major famines struck India between 1876-1943; spread through states such as Tamil Nadu in South, Bihar in north and Bengal in the east. Altogether between 30-40 million Indians were the victims of famines in the latter half of the 19th century under the atrocious & barbaric British Rule.
In the famine of 1876-1879 alone more than 20 million Indians died in India. Again in the famine of 1896-1902 more than 10 million died of starvation. All due to the indifferent attitude to the fate of starving Indians and incompetence as well as refusal of British Rulers to help the starving humans.
British Ruler’s inhuman attitude towards human life became more visible in the 1943 Bengal Famine in which more than 4 million Bengali Indians died. Winston Churchill was the Prime Minister at that time. The famine occurred under his own watch and his involvement, knowledge in the human disaster & sufferings remains a mystery till to-date. In a response to an urgent request by the Secretary of State for India, Leo Amery and Wavell to release food stocks for India, Winston Churchill responded with a telegram to Wavell asking, if food was so scarce, "why Gandhi hadn’t died yet.”
During the famine Churchill was more concerned with the civilians of Greece; who were also suffering from a famine compared with the Bengali Indians. In the end Churchill did ask for US assistance, writing to Roosevelt that he was "no longer justified in not asking for aid" but his response was negative. It was very unfortunate on the part of Democrat President Roosevelt to show least concern for the lives of Bengali Indians against the very principle of American philosophy, “Liberty & Justice to all.”
In 1945 the official British Famine Inquiry Commission deliberately suppressed the Bengal Famine of 1943 death toll at about 1.5 million Indians. Years later in 1974, W R Aykroyd who was a member of the British Inquiry Commission and was primarily responsible for this under estimation, conceded that the figures were an underestimate. W R Akroyd gave a very silly explanation, “I now think it (the death toll) was an under-estimate, especially in that it took little account of roadside deaths”. Where as fact of the matter is close to 4 million Bengali Indians died in the 1943 Famine.
It is an irony no Indian especially the Bengalis have ever talked about for 4 million Bengali victims including new born children who were starved to death in 1943 Bengal famine under inhuman, atrocious and cruel British Rule. No Indian has ever talked about 30-40 million Indians who died in different famines during 1876-1943 under the inhuman British Rule.
Where as every where Organized Jewish Leadership wants the whole world to talk 24/7 and feel guilty about the holocaust in which 5 million (an inflated figure) Jews were killed by Hitler rather than their illegal colonization of Palestine Land. This Leadership does not wish to address failed socio, economics & political policies of Israel and illegal colonization of Palestine Land with 3.5 million Arab Muslim Slaves for the last 40 years. Still Israel calls itself a Democracy!
This Organized Leadership is besides promoting a Culture of Moral & Ethical Corruption every where in the world is governing Israel with guns & bombs to glorify their illegal confiscation of Palestine Land. To hide all of this they want the entire world to live in the past that Jews were massacred by Hitler so they deserve every one’s sympathy.
They want the whole world to feel guilty the words spoken by Arun Gandhi is no exaggeration. Indians around the world & Indian Government should be ashamed of them selves for not standing up with Arun Gandhi who has been forced out of M K Institute for Non- violence by the Jewish Leadership for making this honest comment. This institute was founded in America 17 years ago by Arun Gandhi to spread the ideals of Father of the Indian nation; Mahatama Gandhi who happens to be his grandfather. It is gross injustice and assault on Freedom of Free Speech Right in America who call it self the champion of Democracy and human Rights.
This is the second time Indian Leadership has failed; earlier when entire Indian community was called, Cockroaches, Animals, illiterate and illegal go home by the Jewish Police Union in New Jersey this leadership kept quite. These are the worst ever called Racial Slurs for any minority community in the history of America. Unfortunately these Racial Slurs Jews used for Palestinians also.
Arun Gandhi is by no means the first one to suggest that Israel is “a nation that believes its survival can only be ensured by weapons and bombs.” Early Zionist leaders honestly believed that only a continuing state of conflict –without which they were afraid that western sympathy and aid would evaporate quickly—could assure the survival of their nascent state.

“Every Israeli leader since 1948 with the exception of Yitzhak Rabin, during his last term- has remained true to that conviction and made no genuine move to seek an honorable peace with Palestinians. For Israeli leaders in the 60’s and 70’s, Palestinians simply don’t exist, period! Leaders in the 70’s & 80’s blamed Palestinian terrorists for lack of peace, and reserved the worst racial epithets for the Palestinian people: “cockroaches” “beast on two legs,” “scum that ought to be exterminated,” etc.; in the late 90’s and early 2000’s, Israel chose to demonize Arafat as the sole obstacle to peace; and until recently, it was blaming the election of Hamas for its inability to make peace.”
Today when Israel is exposed to criticism for its atrocities on Palestinians and its illegal occupation of their country since 1967, its defenders prefers to emphasize on the memory of the Holocaust and any criticism of Israel is anti-Semitism. An Israeli Jew Sam Vaknin wrote “by shouting “anti-Semitism” every time some one attacks Israel or defends Palestinians, we are breeding cynics.”

Every person around the world must unite against Israel to defend the Freedom of Speech Rights of Arun Gandhi and the Right of the Palestinians to their own country. If the world wants Peace than Israel must vacate the Palestinian Land it is forcibly occupying for last 40 years.
God Bless United States of America and every human on earth.
