[FARS]

Would you have believed any of this, as related in the Video below, if someone like me had brought it up a few years before World War II or World War I?

You might have admitted to a twinge of credibility because of your own anti-semitic sentiments or from underlying currents in newspaper reports.

You might have reasoned that economics and politics in play at the time, both internal and international, pointed to dissatisfaction, unrest and a search for a scapegoat.

But had I posited a scenario as described below, or the eradication of millions of fellow human beings - not all Jews, nor all killed in battle - as an extrapolation of present situations into the near future, you would have mocked me.

Yet, they happened AND are happening again in a replay with some different actors and some playing old roles. Instead of laughing at me take note and take steps to help prevent it happening. Silencing me or others like me will not prevent the debacle we face.

Yet those behind upcoming events immediately try to stifle dissent.

The Rest of this MUST READ and video at........

The article you post seems credible to me. Today's American liberal is as far from me as the Nazi must have been to Germans who were immune to the appeal of Nazism.

At FreeRepublic, we often speak of liberals and conservatives. Perhaps a better distinction is between those who are indoctrinated with the latest message (liberals), and those who are not (AKA conservatives). As I talk with conservatives, many share my values, but many do not. Some conservatives that I know (also Bill O’Reilly whom we many of us know) are merely old time liberals who do not fully buy into the new liberalism.

I imagine it was the same during the rise of Hitler. There were many who fell in with the most fashionable indoctrinated views, which Hitler accepted, then shaped further. There may have been a hodgepodge of people who did not look forward to the next "change." This could include those who were deeply religious. Since they already followed a Messiah, they would not be swayed by a new one. It could include those who were deeply immersed in a larger, stable view of western civilization. Anyone with fixed standards might be able to resist the new standards of tomorrow.

Many are ready to follow Obama and the New York Times, etc, wherever they may go. Many were ready to follow Hitler wherever he would go. (I don't know about the role of the German press in the 1930’s.)

My world view has matured into further belief in America, freedom, free markets, and restrictions on Government. Friends and relatives have a world view that has matured into further rejection of all that I believe. We have never been further apart. We (at FreeRepublic) may face a gathering storm, much like those who were not swayed by Hitler. I hope (and pray) that I am wrong.
