Ever wonder?

Those who forget history ...

Ever wonder?

Ever wonder how the German people could have gone along with a regime bent on world conquest and genocide? How a country so well-grounded in art, culture, philosophy, science, and rational thought could have so willingly subscribed to the machinations of a madman - a country where most of the intellectual elite and a large percentage of the everyday people considered Hitler a fool and regarded Mein Kampf as the illiterate ramblings of an idiot? How such a people could have been so enthusiastic in the pursuit of policies that most knew would ultimately destroy not only much of the world but their own country as well?

Now you know.

Try telling some americans that their leaders are bent on war and destruction.....they are as stooooopid as them....but try telling them that. It never ceases to amaze me how many of them believe in bush...and the zionists that rule them...but try teling them that the zionists are their rulers and you know what they will say.....NOT US!!!!

We try somtimes not to be so stupid..
It's just that information is so tightly held.
This is what we didn't learn in school but it is what I had to dig out of the library.
Greed.
WWII was a result of greed gone too far to fast. To pluck the fruit of total domination of the sheep of the field. Quite a few members of the flock still have a touch of dog or even wolf. And they fight back seeing the horror of corperatism triumphant smashing its way over the lives of people like you or me. So we ( the forces of “democracy”) managed to defeat with horrific loss and pain, the forces of fascism. Much money was made. It was a good war, our kind of war.
Lots of our guys never came home, much grief and bitterness flowed with the triumph of victory at its end. But strangely no one wanted to talk or hear about where the money to finance “ that lunatic corporal” or our ham fisted approach to Imperial Japan’s annexation of territory near “our” ocean. Much money was made it was a good war one that gave California the gift of most of the fishing and agricultural assets of newly relocated Japanese Americans(to be compensated, of course at 1940$ property assessments values, decades later) available for sale at UNBELIEVABLE discounts to the joy of envious competing enterprises.
Fascism however never was in any danger. It got smarter, better technology and even tighter control over modes of communication and education. With our taxes It added more muscle and teeth. It gives us our extravagant (some of us) lifestyle. We are just in another greed feeding frenzy with the scraps and blooming blood of its attention now becoming too obvious to ignore. Now it's starting to feed more upon us. The world will not forgive us as a nation if
we don’t stop this (their) nightmare.

I apologize if I was rude

I am often rude, it's a habit I've picked up here.
You Brits and I agree about the klown in the house.
And not meaning to offend with my unworthy opinion
admittedly unsolicited, may I offer you to visit
your wayward cousins in San Francisco? You might
become amused by the range war potpourri
You do have friends..
