I want to evoke the historical personality of Gandhi, so similar to that of Jesus; you should not forget what he actually taught, not what they would make him to say.
In his diary, “old as mountains: the truth and non-violence,” he says, “if I had to choose between armed struggle and cowardice, the truth teaches me to choose armed struggle; but just because I'm a follower of truth, the truth, when there is no cowardice and there is awareness and courage, teach me the path of non-violence”.
In the same spirit, when he was reported that a small population without defending had been massacred, involving the same children, to honour the principle of non-violence; Gandhi regretted the false and erroneous interpretation of this principle, saying that non-violence was a free choice and not a reasoned position taken arbitrary, it is the best method of fighting under condition of maturity and awareness, a risk accepted with courage, but one could not oblige the children, the weak and the helpless and all those, who had no opportunity to choose to be involved in the ultimate sacrifice that went beyond self-defence.
Children were not supposed to experience violence, being defensible, in love of the principle of ”non-violence" professed by the fathers.
In this way, the little ones, the weak, defenceless, the old one would have suffered violence, “not doing violence to violent", which would not have been certain be the principle of, which would have been even more destructive in the same “force" that would exert on the transgressors, as non violence responds to rationality, to truth, that is at the service of love respecting the weaker, friend or foe, and it is not idolatry to a principle that sacrificing the community and kids and themselves.
