harder way for freedom
by kalyan ram on Jun 30, 2007 12:22 AM

the countries that achieved their freedom the harder way progressed well in this modern era. the americans achieved their freedom through harder way way back in 1776 in a bloody war britishers. the french revolution, russian revolution, chinese revolution. we indians got our freedom through peaceful and non-violent movements. fine. we had two choices for achieving of freedom the non-violent movement by gandhi and milaitary offensive by subhash chandra bose. our bad luck the latter one failed but it had instilled britishers with fear that another military revolution is on the cards. also the britona sufferred immensely from second world war and are in no mood to control a large country like india. america and soviet russia had emerged as new super powers as a result of second world war. the briish super power status finally waned and gave india freedom. i doubt if second world war didnt happenned will the britishers ever had granted india freedom?...i think no....should we have to thank adolf hitler for starting second world war resulting in waning of british power and thereby resulting in indian freedom?.....what your say?....
