Gandhi in Gaza

NPR had an interview with a guy who had a charter to solve the world's greatest problems. His approach to the Middle East conflict: show the movie "Gandhi" to Palestinians in Gaza. He claimed that it was a revelation to many of them. The possibility of nonviolent resistance - much less its historical record of accomplishment - had not occurred to them.

I find that surprising but plausible. I also suspect that Gandhi's methods would be very powerful in Gaza. Hamas and Mossad are probably already plotting to assassinate any nonviolent resisters.
