Nice!
Possibly coming to America in the near future?
The men and women who took part in the Warsaw Ghetto revolt define the very essence of courage. Their revolt was one of the most valient actions of the few against the many. And it was the spirit of that revolt which helped to inspire the Jews after the war to found the state of Israel and stand up and fight their oppressors.
After seeing a 14 year old girl beat a 13 year old girl unconscious with a folding chair over some sunflower seeds, and a group of cheerleaders beating another girl just for their 15 minutes on YouTube, my question is “Do we have any 13 year old children who would be willing to do what those 13 year old kids did in Warsaw?”
Maybe we do, I hope we do, but everything I read about and see indicates we are losing our children/grandchildren. How can a child that seriously injures another child for some sunflower seeds possibly understand the nature of the sacrifices made by those brave kids in the ghetto?
As I recall the story, the liquidation started several months earlier; the uprising started on April 19.
Ping.
God Bless and Protect Marek Edelman. He is also an outspoken supporter of the War on Terror and Liberation of Iraq from Saddam Hussein. He knows what he is talking about.
In WWII, we beat Japan and we beat Germany. We alone had the A-bomb. We could have beaten Russia, if we wanted to. We hadn't been bombed. Our economy was strong. Our industrial base was unmatched. Our military was the biggest and best in the world.
In movies, we had Gary Cooper, John Wayne, and others. On Television, we had western where men with guns made sure that bad guys were punished and justice was done so the downtrodden could live better lives.
The Left saw all this, and was scared.
It took decades, but we now have homosexuals, feminists and Leftists running the show. Our manhood is completely sapped. Our children don't understand sacrifice. They don't believe that justice can be had. They don't grasp the concept of objective truth. Our society is based on instant gratification and apathetic indulgence.
The manly strength of the 1950's has been replaced by Rosie O'Donnell. This didn't just happen.
There are folks who see a young girl beating another girl with a chair and think "You go girl! Mission accomplished".
Exactly right. We are in trouble.
My thoughts exactly. Given the other comments above regarding the current state of this nation one actually wonders if it would, in the long run, be such a bad thing?
Your thesis is flawed. Going to war against the USSR in 1945 was a non-starter from the get go. They had more more men and they were arguably the most battle-hardened troops left standing, and telling a public that had just rejoiced at beating the Axis that they were now going to war against an even tougher enemy than the Germans so that all their relatives could die in a fight against a former ally wouldn’t have gone down at all...
So it made much more sense for the US to condemn tens of millions to decades of slavery, torture, and murder.
What bullsh**.

International communism had its roots in the decades before WWII, and had already made some fairly strong inroads in the US. WWII merely put their progress on hold for a few years.
War against the Soviet Union in 1945 was a non-starter politically. Got any guesses on how many American lives the conquest of Russia would have taken? I’m thinking at least 500,000. Ordinary American citizens would have rioted in the streets.
“So it made much more sense for the US to condemn tens of millions to decades of slavery, torture, and murder.”
Yep, that about sums it up....
They IDed the SD in the right front of the photo several years ago. The Germans sent him to prison.
