<Sharon drove to the memorial of Mahatma Gandhi at Rajghat on the banks of the Yamuna river. Paying homage to Mahatma Gandhi, Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon expressed hope that "embattled democracies" such as Israel and India could unite in the battle against terrorism, for peace and for a better future.>

A moment of intense irony. In the Age Of Lies, politicians habitually use the ideologies of peace to justify their programs of war.

<Israel on Tuesday offered to share with India its expertise in combating terrorism and warned that if the scourge was not eliminated it could wipe out civilisations. Israeli Deputy Prime Minister Joseph Lapid made the offer when he called on M S Bitta, chairman of All India Anti-Terrorist Front (AIATF) at his residence here... "We can train and teach and supply materials we have developed in fighting terrorism. We have developed a very advanced technology," he said.>

Maybe the Hindu Nationalists could teach the Israelis how to organize pogroms against Muslims. After touring the Gandhi memorial, perhaps Sharon would like to visit the site of the former Ayodhya Mosque. Sort of a cultural exchange program. Like the way the IRA and Hezbollah get together in Libyan camps, to discuss the fine points of bomb-making and hijacking.

Gandhi was an anti-Zionist, because he saw Zionism as a type of colonialism, a process that can only sustain itself by constant and massive violence.
