It is highly plausible that
Gandhi-ji and other nationalist Hindu leaders were the necessary
Hegelian Dialectic, the United India of the Hindus, to balance the
demand for the engineered partition of India by the Muslims. The
following is a brief analysis from the Muslim side by Project
Humanbeingsfirst.
And the analysis suggests that the
Hindu side was equally necessary, complicit, and participant, to
foment the agitation by the Muslims and the concomitant engineered
Hindu-Muslim communal riots for over 50 years, perhaps even since
1857, that eventually led to the justification for partition of the
Indo-subcontinent on religion grounds.
Without the Hindu leadership’s
participation at the highest levels, perhaps wittingly, perhaps
unwittingly, but nevertheless necessarily, in the Hegelian Dialectic
of “United India” vs. “Partitioned India”, no
“revolutionary times” could have been engineered in the
Indian sub-continent. And as the famous statement by David Ben-Gurion
goes:
“What is inconceivable in
normal times is possible in revolutionary times; and if at this time
the opportunity is missed and what is possible at such great hours is
not carried out – a whole world is lost.” — David
Ben Gurion
The communal partition of the
Indian sub-continent was arguably an absolute necessity for the
British imperial interests during their retrenchment back to their
tiny island — so that their famous “Jewel in the Crown”
is never able to rise to its fullest potential as an independent
sovereign nation-state. That abstraction, independent nation-state,
being only a temporary staging process before the eventual transition
to global governance. Well before the partition of Indian in 1947,
that endgame was already being pursued by the Round Table interests;
as is evidenced by the statement of the famous British historian
Arnold Toynbee:
“We are at present working
discreetly with all our might to wrest this mysterious force called
sovereignty out of the clutches of the local nation states of the
world. All the time we are denying with our lips what we are doing
with our hands, because to impugn the sovereignty of the local nation
states of the world is still a heresy for which a statesman or
publicist can perhaps not quite be burned at the stake but certainly
be ostracized or discredited.” — Arnold Toynbee, The
Trend of International Affairs Since the War, International Affairs,
November 1931, page 809
Not recognizing the methods of
empire has been the greatest failing of the people of the
sub-continent both pre and post partition, continuing to today. See
for instance: Operation
Gladio Yesterday and Worldwide Terrorism Today – Identifying
the Enemy.
Just another way to look at the
matter. If empire was so simplistic and
reductionist in its methods of Divide et Imperia
as the Pollyanish sense of this article that bespeaks of hero-worship
suggests, the Indian sub-continent would have long been free of the
yolk of colonialism, and would have also adroitly protected itself
both from the partition, as well as from the subsequent faux freedom
hoisted upon it by Western trained Hindu and Muslim lawyers on
Western principles which were entirely foreign to the genius of its
indigenous peoples.
