Chamberlain's classic statement after his meeting with Hitler "Peace in our time", shows how naive many European politicians were at that time. We in Sweden, were even worse, as we had consistently since WW1 disarmed our defense. History repeats itself, I’d say. Now we’ll have to be careful, when we are negotiating with Putin, whatever the issue may be. Hitler wished to make peace just as Putin wants today, but it’s always on the tyrants conditions, which we should all have in mind. Does Trump understand this?<br /><br /><br />Björnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834822786084044829.post-20842446829989171782017-01-24T08:14:31.384+00:002017-01-24T08:14:31.384+00:00Whooshed, copyright infringement.

Whilst they were looking for reds under the bed the facists were goose-stepping down the high street.

One of the many sparks of sunshine on Saturday (Women's March), was Gloria Steinham (I think?) said, if Muslims are forced to register, we will all become Muslims, or words to that effect. <br /><br />I tend to think the American people are inherently good, they are a nation that is built on the lives of the immigrants who have flocked there. People who believe they have gone to a land of freedom and tolerance, where they can prosper and thrive alongside their neighbours. You don't move countries and continents because you have opted for an easy life! You move because you want a better life for yourself and your family, and naturally you will strive to improve the community around you too. Economic migrants create jobs, they see opportunities where others see too much hard work and labour. <br /><br />I have to fully digest Sean Spicer's first full briefing to the press. Thus far, he is coming as across as quite charming, and that scares the bejesus out of me. He was easy to hate when he stepped out on Saturday, where I suspect the lines came directly from 'the Donald'. I imagine the conversation after probably went something along the lines of, 'you have just made me, and yourself, look like lying bastards and everyone hates you'. <br /><br />We are now seeing the Spicer 'who got the job' doing it 'his way'. Pity he couldn't haven't talked Trump out of that little anthem to narcissism before he took to the dancefloor with Melania. <br /><br />But your point is apathy NL, I hear ya. It was good however to see populist heroes and heroines out there speaking 'to the people'. This feels like a new era, historically Hollywood have been overt about their politics. Probably remnants of the McCarthy blacklisting years, when accusations of being a 'commie' or even a Russian sympathiser were enough to ruin careers. <br /><br />Social media is spreading the message, though why it didn't reach those voters before the election is baffling. Trump said himself, celebrities are damaging to the 'movement', so better late than never!Rosalinda Huttonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01497239700092619580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834822786084044829.post-81305975857888664562017-01-23T20:33:11.826+00:002017-01-23T20:33:11.826+00:00Hi Rosalinda
Whatever one may say about Donald Tru...Hi Rosalinda<br />Whatever one may say about Donald Trump, he’s living the American dream in all its shallowness. Being a winner is to many Americans, as it seems, more important than doing the right thing. Anyway, had the two dominating Parties and their delegates at least tried to compromise their self-interests to the larger interests of their country, they would have voted off their two disputed candidates at an early stage, and there would not just have been a contest between Bernie Sanders and Ted Cruz, but the Libertarian Gary Johnson would also have got a chance to loosen up the ideological rigidity of the traditional American two-party system.<br /><br />I’d say, that the voting system allowed Trump to be elected with the reluctant consent of less than 50% of the American people. Still, there isn’t really any need to worry too much, as the American constitution and all its traditional democratic institutions will make it difficult for him to deliver on any of his most opportunistic campaign promises. Democracy is not at stake here, but the political rhetoric will probably be more vulgar<br /><br />As for the Weimar Republic, the installed multi-party system as the result of TheTreaty of Versailles, lacked both democratic institutions and traditions, which made it possible for the Nazi Party, which did not represent the majority of the German voters, to create their own undemocratic institutions, one of which was the S A. (The Sturmabteilung), with the main task of protecting the “Führer”<br /><br />Hi Anonymous 22 Jan 09.32<br /><br />The German people may not have known what was going on in the concentration camps and most of these camps were located outside Germany in occupied countries like Auschwitz-Birkenau in Poland, but the German people in general could certainly experience the dramatic freedom restrictions, that came about shortly after the “Machtübernahmung”. <br /><br />Sebastian Haffner, a German lawyer, who managed to flee to the U K before 1936, when the borders were definitely closed, tries to elucidate in his book Geschichte eines Deutschen” why people did not challenge the Nazis, and he hasn’t, to put it mildly, so much sympathy for the defense of his countrymen’s tacit obedience in these years. <br /><br />The German author Anna Seghers, who, during the war and after as well, has published many books on the Nazi theme has said, that she very early had a premonition (she could feel it in the language) of something sinister going to happen, but couldn’t imagine holocaust of course. <br /><br />So if you haven’t yet written your story, please do. It’s needed. Let me finally paraphrase what you wrote in German with just some modification.<br />(so vielleicht hat man es nicht gewusst, oder nicht wissen wollen)<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Björnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-834822786084044829.post-76939093582716704782017-01-23T20:32:01.545+00:002017-01-23T20:32:01.545+00:00https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScZ_Vf0VxvI

I've been glued to the news reports and the commentaries, and it's not helping my current depressive 'episode' one bit. <br /><br />It was heartening on Saturday to see so many stars come out for the Women's March. Some of the language was a bit fruity for my own particular tastes, but I was thinking 'go girlfriend' anyway. <br /><br />I'm not sure Thatcher was a Leader, so much a strict dormitory Matron, particularly with a cabinet of public school chinless wonders. She was of course completely loopy, but as we have seen so recently, that can be a plus in a leadership race. <br /><br />To be fair I'm not sure who I hate the most, Thatcher or Blair, I think Blair has the edge because I, and my dear old dad, had put so much faith in him. Blimey, that really was a lifetime ago!

Hitler was a ‘feel good dictator’, a leader who made sure Germans were well cared-for by the state and made them feel important again. <br /><br />https://www.amazon.de/exec/obidos/ASIN/3100004205/qid%3D1112189465/sr%3D2-1/ref%3Dsr_2_0_1/028-2506654-1948517<br /><br />The Holocaust was kept ‘secret’.<br /><br />My mother was very young when her father (non-violent Dutch resistance ‘fighter’) died in a Nazi concentration camp in Germany. Many years after the war she and other family have visited the camp several times. Later on they made contact with the locals who were very hospitable and friendly and felt deeply ashamed. In spite of the distance and isolation, at times screaming was heard coming from the camp. They were told there was a prison filled with criminals.

I would have voted Trump being the non politician and to be fair saying what he thinks rather than what people want to hear. He reminds me of Thatcher the marmite of the political world, you either loved or hated her. Again I loved her not because of some of her policies but because she was a leader and didn't pretend to be everybody's friend unlike Blair or Cameron. John100noreply@blogger.com
