Fact is,the man thought siding with the nazis was a better option than being with Gandhi,agreeing to wait!For that alone,he is not,and can never be,in the Mahatma's league!

Your knowledge of Indian History is abysmal. Your understanding of Politics is non-existent.
Netaji's efforts to obtain help from germans to liberate India was the most natural thing to do. In war, your enemy's enemy is your friend. Netaji had no personal preference for hitler. As a matter of fact, during the meeting with hitler, Netaji gave him a piece of his mind for his racist views. He repetedly pressed him to explain why hitler thought the time for Indian Freedom had not come. hitler was put on the backfoot by this intrepid Indian Leader. Consequently the meeting didnot go well. Netaji had also let the german foreign minister Ribbentrop know that Indians didnot think much of the nazis. Netaji then looked towards Japan for help.
During his voyage in the U2 submarine in 1941, he confided to his attendant Dr.Welter Norden that had he stayed back in germany he would probably have shot hitler !
So, dear madam.. please read your history again before you post such political analysis. You should know that you today owe your freedom to this great man. Any other country would have loved to have him as their own. But not India, who can only betray their greats.

Before making such ridiculous and outright idiotic statements ,it would have been judicious to atleast refer to Indian political history.When Subhash Bose asked for Purna Swaraj on the 1930s it was viewed as extremism and when Gandhi took the same stance in 1942,with the Quit India movement,it was praised and has gone down in history as am imp reason for Indian independance.As long as we as Indians are not ready to face facts and find out the true history of India,not much can be done to change the sorry state of the country.What the Gandhi dynasty did for the first 50 years to the nation is apparent.Next time please ensure you know what you are talking about before you start posting.
