Re: [FairfieldLife] The Hitler Card

[Llundrub]

So, in simplifed story cards, a whole bunch of, immoral IMO, Imperialst Empires had a huge gang fight in WWI, and the victors "raped and pillaged" the losers. And when the losers later got pissed off and sought revenge, we puffed out our chests and said "we can't be appeasers!". Why didn't we lower our heads in humility a 100 years earlier and say, "this imperialst empire thing is horrible, it is what our (the US) revolution aimed to end, and we are not going to be a part of it. And to the extent we can, we will work for a fair and equitable resolution to the conflict of these mad and vicious gangs masquerading as honor- bound refined glorious gentlemen." ----Churchil was not a US person. We, the US entered WW2 after Pearl Harbor.  For the US, then still on the moral high ground, we fought against moral atrocites.   Now?  Not a leg to stand on. Abu Ghraib was our country's death as a moral nation. To subscribe, send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Or go to: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FairfieldLife/ and click 'Join This Group!'
