<mode="historian"> I didn't say I thought that justice SHOULD belong to the
victors--I said it DOES belong to the victors. The victor always dictates
the history of the war and passes judgment on acts committed during
it...whether that control over events and interpretation is justified or
legitimate or not. I could equally have used Mao's dictum that "power grows
from the barrel of a gun." </mode>

DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER
==========
CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list. Proselytizing propagandic
screeds are unwelcomed. Substance�not soap-boxing�please! These are
sordid matters and 'conspiracy theory'�with its many half-truths, mis-
directions and outright frauds�is used politically by different groups with
major and minor effects spread throughout the spectrum of time and thought.
That being said, CTRLgives no endorsement to the validity of posts, and
always suggests to readers; be wary of what you read. CTRL gives no
credence to Holocaust denial and nazi's need not apply.
Let us please be civil and as always, Caveat Lector.
