"Why Do Liberals Hate America?"
Could a NAZI propagandist pose a better question?
Really, what is at the heart of the American problem is that people in our government the ones who follow the ideals of the American Constitution and the principles of the Declaration of Independence are silenced with fear for their own wellbeing.
Anyone can be harmed and only a few will have the resources to wage the endless struggle that the American government leadership will initiate in order to cover up their record of incompetence and
criminal behavior.
A secret is a secret to only a few, those who are indifferent to participation in American democratic government and those who keep the secrets of the
American government. There are no real secrets in government. For whatever is thought to be secret is generally known.
For example, there is a notorious case of the German populace who claimed they had no idea, prior to their own exposure by Allied troops, that there were death camps with the words "Abeit macht frei" written over the entrance.
Most Germans were aware of the existence of the camps, but they also were aware that if this knowledge became public, it could harm their families and themselves. This is how open secrets remain official secrets.
Perhaps if the Germans had had the courage of the Gentile wives who protested for their Jewish husbands’ release as their husbands were being sent to the death camps, there may have been no Final Solution and there may have been fewer deaths of German soldiers and civilians.
The idea that everything is relative ("Alles ist relativ") is one easy belief system that allows people to be free of responsibility: one need not ask for forgiveness in a confessional. Yes, the German people were responsible for the actions of their government. Yes, we the people are responsible, regardless of our awareness of the actions that surround us each day in our families, in our towns, in our governments and in our world.
There are no secrets. We know them all. We must learn to speak out together in one voice that will stop the enemies of humanity from continuing. This courage must be collectively encouraged.
