The ghost of 1938

Posted on July 24, 2014 by KG

Germany:  ‘..According to German news site dw.de, Hadas-Hannelsman said: “We have nothing against demonstrations or against freedom of expression – that’s the core of democracy. But when, as happened this weekend, it leads to violence against the police or against pro-Israeli demonstrators, then it is unacceptable. I think Germans should be worried by that, because you also hear anti-Semitic slogans like ‘Jews into the gas’ – in Germany?”…’

    Washington may be losing patience with Europe, but what does that mean? It means that they will write a strongly worded letter telling them how disappointed they are in them. But other than that? Nothing. It was what was done for Syria and when Russia stole the Crimea. I have long said that the shadow of evil is stretching out over the world. As the left has spread, so has this evil. It has built up momentum now and there is no stopping it. Obama had his chance and he blew it.

    It will come to a head and people will die. That seems to be the way of the world. You can have hopes that maybe one day, people will learn from their mistakes and not repeat them. But as I get older, that appears to be more of a pipe dream than reality.

      “As the Left has spread so has this evil.”

      And yet still many are waiting for what will be their gloating explanation:

      “You can’t say we didn’t warn you. It was the Right which failed to take seriously that we chose as our label a synonym for sinister.”

      I once observed that there has long been in play a Gresham’s Law of Western Institutions.

      In its simplest form, “Bad actors drive out good.”

      You name the once prestigious and honorable institution staffed by man, and you don’t need to be a cynic to see how far it has wandered or been torn away from its stated goal.

      And there, my friends, is the shortest way to explain how the West got to where she is today.

    Like I said back in 2008, if Obama was elected president we’d be facing WW III, The Great Jihad, American Civil War II and The Great Depression II all at the same time: that could spell Götterdämmerung not only for America, but for Western Civilization as well.

    2014 is a fateful year – 100 years this summer since The Great War begin…

    We may yet have another “The Guns of August” in the opening battles are taking place in another Balkans called Gaza.

    One shoe has fallen…

    The Sarajevo Moment draws near…
