?Sex life of Mohandas Gandhi, his failures and sexual perversion
His world view of the Africans was based upon the caste structure, where he saw
the Indians above the Blacks and below the European. He tried his best to make s
ure tha the Indians were used against the Africans (Zulu, Kaffirs and others).
Gandhi joined in the orgy of Zulu slaughter when the Bambata Rebellion broke out
. It is essential to discuss the background of the Bambata Rebellion, to place G
andhi s Nazi war crime in its proper perspective.The Bambatta Rebellion Background
The spiritual foundation of Nazism was the superiority of the Aryan race or its
modern version, the Anglo-Saxon race. When Disraeli was Prime Minister, Britain
enunciated a doctrine, like the Monroe Doctrine, warning other European powers t
hat Africa would be a British preserve, and that from the Cape to the Limpopo, i
f not to Cairo, only white people would have local political power. Successive B
ritish Governments pursued this policy.
In the 1870s, the Zulu Kingdom was by far the most powerful African State of the
Limpopo. Cetewayo, who succeeded his father in 1872, was an able and popular ru
ler. He united the kingdom and built up a most efficient army. He followed a pol
icy of alliance with the British Colony of Natal. The Zulu Kingdom and the Boer
The Boers are simple, frank and religious. They settle in the midst of extensive
farms. We can have no idea of the extent of these farms. A farm with us means g
enerally an acre or two, and sometimes even less. In South Africa, a single farm
er has hundreds or thousands of acres of land in his possession. He is not anxio
us to put all this under cultivation at once, and if any one argues with him he
will say, `Let it lie fallow; lands which are now fallow will be cultivated by o
ur children .
Also in his Indian Opinion (March 15 1913), he wrote:
General Botha has thousands of acres of land
(there is) a big company in Natal w
hich has hundreds of thousands of acres of land.
Thou shalt not steal but rob.
It did not seem to occur to Gandhi how these people came into possession of thou
sands of acres of land, whereas Africans were cooped in locations like chicken i
n pens.
Grabbing the land was not enough: it needed manpower to cultivate that land. The
cry of the farmers was for labour. Naturally it found a favourite response from
Shepstone, whose dream it was to convert Cetewayo s warriors into labourers for w
hite men. His native policy was to meet the demands of the European farmers. He
agreed that Europeans could not expand or grow in wealth unless they could draw
more fully upon the reservoirs of labour in the African reserves.
In the process of European colonisation, the swiftly expanding land-hungry Europ
eans turned the bulk of the African population into a proletariat. Due to the co
ngestion and landlessness in the reserves, created deliberately by the white rul
ers, their agricultural return was not sufficient for bare existence. Then there
were the taxes on huts, cattle and what not. On the other hand, working for whi
te men did not provide them with adequate sustenance. In Natal, the sugar farmer
s of the coast relied upon the Indian indentured labour, whereas the stock farme
rs of the interior relied exclusively on Africans, and regarded the failure of A
fricans to work for them as a criminal offence. In a report to the Chief Commiss
ioner of Police in 1903, the Police Inspector W.F. Fairley wrote:
With regard to crime, the principal complaints made by Dutch farmers to patrols w
as of the refusal to work on the part of the natives. (Department Reports 1903 p.6
7 cited Reluctant Rebellion by Marks p.17. Clarendon Press, Oxford 1970).
Complaints about the shortage of African labour were voiced in all parts of the
country. The farmers were later joined by the mining industries. The most obviou
s change was the broadening of the economic base from being entirely agricultura
l to one in which mining played a more and more important part. Diamond, gold, c
oal became major industries, and with this development, the deeper involvement o
f the big finance houses, particularly Rothschilds. So the fate of the Africans
as the source of cheap labour, and the fat dividends derived from mining by the
British ruling class, became interlinked. This still continues in a modified for
m. Now it is Anglo-American corporations.
Cheap labour from India: Europeans assumed that Africans lived only to meet thei
r requirements of cheap labour, and as such they had no right to establish thems
elves as self-sufficient and independent farmers because this conflicted with Eu
ropean interests. Famines in India facilitates the recruitment of indentured Ind
ian labourers for white employers in the Colonies. It was no different in relati
on to Africans. In a Report of the Native Affairs Commission, (Native Affairs Co
mmission Report 1939-40 cited Oxford History of South Africa p.182. Clarendon Pres
d to foresee one because that would give them a golden opportunity to inflict se
vere punishments on Zulus who, according to the colonists, were growing insolent
. They drew up a plan to deal with this imaginary uprising swiftly, and all agre
ed that was the way they could save not only Natal but North Africa from the barb
arities which only the savage mind can conceive. (Ibid p. Xvii)
Zulu Revolt: But outside Natal, people were not so sure. Styne, President of the
Orange Free State, called it hysteria . Smuts, Botha and Merriman expressed concer
n as to whether the whites of Natal would spur a rebellion. Some churchmen and m
any radical humanitarians in Natal, as well as England, produced volumes of irre
futable evidence proving that it was a conspiracy to goad the Zulus into rebelli
on and then massacre them. In this, Hariette Colenso, the famous daughter of a f
amous father, Bishop Colenso, made the most outstanding contribution. There was
a cry of imminent native revolt in the press long before active rebellion broke
out.
As far back as 1902, Lieu. G.A. Mills in his report (GH18/02. Cited Reluctant Reb
ellion p.158) to the Chief of Staff, Natal, on July 1 informed him:
Every Boer expresses the most bitter hatred of the Zulus. They all express a wis
h that the Zulus would rise now while the British troops are in the country so t
hat they may be practically wiped out. The Boers all say that in the event of th
e rising, every one of them would join the British troops in order to have a cha
nce of paying off old scores against the Zulus. When I first came here, I visite
d farms and asked the Boers what they thought of the advisability of keeping tro
ops here. They all said it was most necessary, as they were afraid of the Kaffir
s and it would not be safe to stay on their farms if the troops withdrew . Taking
everything into consideration, I cannot help being forced to the opinion that ma
ny Boers intend to provoke a Zulu rising if they can do so.
It was Colonel Mackenzie, the military supremo before the rebellion, who was pro
phesying a native uprising and cleaning the barrels of his guns to use the golden
opportunity to inflict the most drastic punishment on leading natives he found gui
lty of treason, and to instill a proper respect for the white man . (C.O. 179/233/1
2460. Dispatch 9.3.06 cited Reluctant Rebellion p. 188).
On June 14, Charles Saunders, Chief Magistrate and Civil Commissioner in Zululan
d (1899-1909) wrote to C.J. Hignet, the magistrate of Nqutu ( Reluctant Rebellion
.241):
I quite agree with your conclusions as to our men trying to goad the whole popul
ation into rebellion, and you have no idea of the difficulties we had in Nkandha
in trying to protect people one knew perfectly well were faithful to us.
In his communication of July 10 1906 to the Prime Minister, (PM 61/15/66 Governo
r to PM 10.7.06) the Governor described the sweeping actions and the mopping-up o
perations as continued slaughter. Fred Graham, a permanent civil servant in the
Colonial Office, in his Minute of July 10, described it as massacre .
Nazism & racism: The most revealing was the long letter of July 24 1906 (CO 179/
236/24787 minute 10-7-06) sent by the Anglican Archdeacon, Charles Johnson, from
St. Augustine s in Nqutu division, to the Society for the Propagation of the Gosp
els in London. He was a man of the British establishment and not known to have e
xcessive zeal for standing up for the rights of the Africans. He wrote (cited Rel
uctant Rebellion p. 241):
Many thinking people have been asking themselves, what are we going to do with h
is teeming population? Some strong-handed men have thought the time was ripe for
solving the great question. They knew that there was a general widespread spiri
t of disaffection among the natives of Natal, the Free State and the Transvaal,
but specially in Natal, and they commenced the suppression of the rebellion in t
he fierce hope that the rebellion might so spread throughout the land and engend
er a war of practical extermination. I fully believe that they were imbued with
the conviction that this was the only safe way of dealing with the native questi
on, and they are greatly disappointed that the spirit of rebellion was not stron
g enough to bring more than a moiety of the native peoples under the influence o
f the rifle. Over and over again it was said, `They are only sitting on the fenc
e, it shall be our endeavour to bring them over ; and again, speaking of the big c
hiefs, `We must endeavour to bring them in if possible! Yes, they have been hone
st and outspoken enough-the wish being father to the thought-they prophesied the
rebellion would spread throughout South Africa; had they been true prophets, no
doubt the necessity of solving the native question would have been solved for t
his generation at least.
John Merriman was a veteran Cape politician. He was one of those so-called liber
als who accepted Nazism as a doctrine, or in other words Anglo-Saxon superiority
, but regretted its consequent atrocities and thus fumigated their consciences.
He wrote to Goldwin Smith (Merriman papers NHo. 202, 16.9.06 cited Reluctant Rebe
llion p.246) in September 1906:
We have had a horrible business in Natal with the natives. I suppose the whole t
ruth will never be known, but enough comes out to make us see how thin the crust
is that keeps our christian civilisation from the old-fashioned savagery machin
e-guns and modern rifles against knobsticks and assagais are heavy odds and do n
ot add much to the glory of the superior race.
In the letter of the Archdeacon the expression practical extermination , and in a l
etter of Lieutenant Mills practically wiped out , have been used. This was what the
German Nazis wanted to do to the Jews: to exterminate them. Does it make any di
fference whether the victims of racial slaughter are Jews or blacks?
Conspiracy to massacre Blacks: Gandhi was well aware of the conspiracy to massac
re the Africans. When there was war hysteria in the colonial press, this prophet
of non-violence did not apply his mind as to how to stop such a conflict. On th
e contrary, he did not want Indians to be left behind, but wanted them to take a
full part in this genocide.
In his editorial in the Indian Opinion of Nov. 18 1905, long before the actual r
ebellion broke out, Gandhi complained that the Government simply did not wish to
give Indians an opportunity of showing that they were as capable as any other c
ommunity of taking their share in the defence of the colony. He suggested that a
volunteer corps should be formed from colonial-born Indians, which would be use
ful in actual service.
Indentured Indians lived in conditions worse than slavery. Gandhi during his 20
years stay in South Africa, did not raise a finger to ease their sufferings. But
he was quick to suggest using them as cannon fodder for racists against Africans
.
In his Indian Opinion in Dec. 2 1905 he referred to Law 25 of 1875 which was spe
cially passed to increase the maximum strength of the volunteer force in the colo
ny adding thereto a force of Indian immigrant volunteer infantry . To assure the E
uropeans that such Indians would only kill Africans, he pointed out that section
83 of the Militia Act states that no ordinary member of the coloured contingent
