"All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."

I have had that thought on my mind a few times since November 4, 2008.

How many people in the USA right now are thinking “This could never happen here, could it?”

American jews vote on the side of dictators, marxists and facists. They haven’t learned a thing. They wallow in their pity so much they can’t wait for another holocaust.

Bill Ayers has never renounced his involvement with the Weather Underground whose plans included sending capitalists to re-education camps and exterminating those who could not be re-educated

This may be a good place to post this:

“The original construction plans believed used for a major expansion of the Nazi death camp at Auschwitz in 1941 have been found in a Berlin flat, “

It has happened here on more than one occasion. The one’s who wonder don’t know a thing about American History.

The question is will it happen again and the answer is yes.

The problem is that good men tend to be unorganized and unready to confront evil until too late to nip it in the bud but instead it has become necessary to fight all-out to stop it. A tiny minority of Bolsheviks seized Russia because they were organized, had a plan and were ready to act at the first sign of opportunity and they acted ruthlessly to eliminate opposition organizations. The first things the Nazis did once they had their pretext was to abolish the political opposition’s parties and start arresting their leaders thus disorganizing them and rendering effective planning near impossible. Remember that video of Saddam sitting in the Iraqi parliament and laughing and joking as opposition leaders were arrested one-by-one and hauled away?

If good men want to get anything done they had better rally to existing organizations or get one started right away. And they had better agree on leadership and a plan and not waste a lot of time about it.

And wondering how to kill the 25 million people who would not submit to their communist agenda. The killing fields in the USA could happen just like it did in Cambodia, Cuba, Ukraine, and Germany.

History just loves to repeat itself, doesn’t it.

Be fair. Many Jews do not, but far too many do as you write. So, so sad.

The how they would do it in America is quite simple.

They would start hundreds of re-education centers all over the US.

Those who did not conform to re-education would be taken out of the centers and executed. People remaining would be told they left to go home or told nothing.

Millions would disappear in the matter of weeks or afew months at best.

People would go to the “Volunteer training programs” without arms.

The state would at some point steal all assets of those executed.

The Jews in Germany were mostly capitalists, a lot of Jews cooperated with the NAZI’s and survived. I have actually spoken to an old woman who was in Germany and was a Jew and cooperated to survive. She lives in south NJ.

One scholar pointed out that after Kristallnacht the situation for the Jews became less dangerous on the surface but the conditions for the Jews became more menacing. That is, after Kristallnacht the harassments, humiliations, and beatings that were a daily occurrence on German streets all but disappeared. Instead, the persecutions went behind the walls of prisons and police stations - and as a consequence became much more severe.
I've always wondered about this assertion. Is it accurate?

I stopped playing fair. The American jews turned their backs to their Israeli brothers and sisters and no jew should even think about voting for the liberty hating dem party.

You're describing the "bug catcher" phenomenon, in a way. A "bug catcher" ethnicity.

If you don’t want to be fair, then please pray that God will move the hearts and heads of American Jews until they understand the dire situation that faces Israel.
