It's important to remember.

After all, we learn from the lessons of history.

Or do we?

"The veterans, all the veterans of World War II, I think we saved the world,"

These men literally saved the entire world, and we should never ever forget their valor and courage.

And they want everyone to remember what happened back then, so that it doesn't happen again.

But it is happening. Look at the nations veering even fuhrer to the right behind authoritarian leaders, especially the leaders of two of the nations most responsible for ensuring fascism was smashed. Look up the definition of fascism. Then look at what's happening in those two nations.

It's a shame how despite the fact that so many of these old veterans are unabashedly anti-war, the trumpet-blowers and the warmongers will ignore that and instead misuse the old guys' sacrifices to push for yet more war. And yet the politicians and the warmongers are hypocritical enough to praise these old men to the skies while they're doing it. Sickening, really.

And yet the politicians and the warmongers keep on cheering to the reality TV show of war where soldiers are the new gladiators.

Look at the nations veering even fuhrer to the right behind authoritarian leaders, especially the leaders of two of the nations most responsible for ensuring fascism was smashed. Look up the definition of fascism. Then look at what's happening in those two nations.

A new holocaust occurred in Yugoslavia against Muslims, Croats, etc. under the fascist dictator Slobodan Milosevic. And a horrendous genocide occurred in Rwanda in 1994 against the Tutsis due to its fascist regime. And now look at the U.S.A. It's Hispanics. Who's next? *We must STOP this insanity!*
