“The People Don’t Want War”
Malu 'Aina Center for non-violent education and action ^ | June 1st, 2011 | Jim Albertini

Posted on 06/05/2011 9:32:57 PM PDT by LeoWindhorse

All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.”

Herman Goering Nazi Deputy for Adolph Hitler

Sometimes truth comes from unexpected sources. The above quote is one such example — how propaganda is used to manipulate public opinion and get ordinary, decent, people to support the criminal policies of their government. Don’t be like the “good” Germans. Don’t be dragged along by today’s propaganda. “Terrorists” have replaced “communists” as the modern enemy. The war on terrorism is really an endless war by the U.S. empire for control of oil, other natural resources, and control of international currency.

Stand up! Speak Out for Peace & Justice! Bring the Troops & War Dollars Home NOW!

Some of us are ok with violence. Does our vote count? And if not, what are the non-violent types going to do to stop it? Hire thugs in black and give them badges?

Funny that they have the nerve to talk about Germany. The elites of that country are planning to do the exact same thing in terms of manipulating public opinion towards acceptance of expanded Bundeswehr missions. Just like close to three-quarters of their public believes that the Israelis are conducting a "war of extermination" against the Palestinians (even though the Palestinian population has done nothing but grow and the Israeli population always shrinks).

And just why, exactly, is this posted on FreeRepublic?

Don’t we get enough of this in the “real” world? Or should we look for some more “Peace in our time / can’t we all just get along” quotes?

so perhaps the good Freepers might venture to write this ‘gentle-man’ and let him know that those that support our military are more numerous than his local perceptions might indicate and that many feel the causes and the continuance of the fight are just and necessary ....

That is , after all , one of the main missions of those us on FR : to PUSH BACK and push hard .

Not just to read and grumble and go on to the next post.

Peace is not the absence of war or conflict. Peace is a strong, mighty America feared by evil people all over the world.

Are these people that stoopid? Know they nothing of history?

Chamberlain on September 30, 1938:

“We regard the agreement signed last night and the Anglo-German Naval Agreement as symbolic of the desire of our two peoples never to go to war with one another again. ....
I believe it is peace for our time. ... And now I recommend you to go home and sleep quietly in your beds.”

In March of 1939, Hitler invaded Czechoslovakia.
