Here is my view of Wharf's hero, Gandhi: Gandhi was a great social and political hero and helped India win independence from the UK. However, his family hated his guts. His wife hated him because he went celibate pn her while he was married. His sons grew up into hoods because he never had time to guide his sons. He was a horrible husband and dad. What role would passive, non-violent resistance have on terrorists? It would absolutely backfire and inspire them to commit more violent acts. Terrorists, especially Jihad terrorists, only understand one language and that is force, counterattack. They perceive non-violent, passive resistance as weakness. The point I am trying to make is that when the Biden/Harris administration pushes Israel to back off against the terrorists, they are empowering the terrorists to continue their war on terror. Now it is true Martin Luther King was a great human being who used Gandhi's method of non-violent passive resistance to get crucial civil rights legislation passed. But the world of the USA and the world of the terrorists are two totally different universes. That is to say, non-violent passive resistance only works in a civilized society; it produces the opposite effect and empowers terrorists, especially Jihad terrorists.
