Churchill, who couldn't stand Gandhi, was sort of the Big Lebowski to Gandhi's Dude.

I can almost hear Churchill saying: "Your revolution is over, Mahatma Gandhi. Condolences!" 

Yet I admire Churchill because he was the only one with balls enough to
stand up to Hitler.

What kind of world would we be living in today, if not for Churchill?

Churchill was great in many ways...I was commenting on the dynamic between him and Gandhi.

Gandhi, incidentally, stopped all anti-British agitation during WWII. He was well aware of the tenets of National Socialism and knew the Brits were more worthy adversaries.

I did not know that.

I didn't know anything about the friction between Churchill and Gandhi either, I'll have to read up on that.
Thats fucking interesting.

Doesn't this kinda imply that we was instigating anti-British agitation before WWII?  Uh, like, maybe I'm wrong here, but instigating agitation seems kinda unDude to me.

true, but he was agitating the agitators by simply Taking It Easy!

This is also a worthy dude. He was a good fellar, that one!

He not allowed DID NOT get his rug peed on, he used magical Indian powers to fly on his rug to avoid it getting peed on.

Talk about a House-trained gentlemen.
