The resemblance to 1934 Germany is unmistakable. Many here have wrote about that similarity. Not so well hidden in the diatribe of the Limbaugh's, the Hannity's, and the Savage's, is the call to destroy the enemy - us. We are the neo-gypsys and Jews. We are no better than the Taliban or Al queda. 70 years later, we will also not understand what will happen next.
The vote for Bush was a vote for violence and destruction. The electorate is not passive about war, they encourage it. Inner violent tendencies, nurtured in a culture of hate, greed, nationalism and fear, produce the citizen beasts that we see at the grocery store and at work. Without violence, they are lost. They know they are the epitome of righteousness, because they are enamored by the voices that tell them how holy they are.
There is no solution. There is no way to reverse this. It is ingrained in the hind brain of the small hearted. Many will suffer tremendously.
It's all there in the annals of Anthropology.

Who will write our "Evangeline" after we leave? A lot of us will go to Canada, like the French from Nova Scotia went to Louisiana.

3. The only comfort that I take in the analogy with the Third Reich |
|
is when Gotterdammerung happens, the leaders turn on each other, killing each other or committing suicide. The ones who survive are taken care of at Nuremburg or by the Israelis. Unfortunately, this only happens after untold suffering by millions of innocents before and after.
