Silenced truth: "pacifists" protect tyrants and incite
wars
History will record with severity the
huge social, human and political cost of the activism of the
erroneously named "pacifists"
The so-called "pacifist" movements, articulated by
leftists, and their silent accomplice, have decisively contributed to
the protection of the most fierce tyrants of the XX and XXI Centuries,
since Adolph Hitler and Stalin, Fidel Castro, Pol Pot and Kim Jong Il,
to Saddam Hussein. With their harmful political formula of "giving in
so as not to loose", they paved the way for several of those dictators
to increment warmonger attitudes against countries and continents, in
addition to enslaving their own people.
Towards the end of the 1930's, it was the English and
French "pacifists" who, with the pretext of avoiding war with Germany,
pressured the public opinion of their respective countries, to give-in
before the annexation of Hitler in Austria and other territories where
German was spoken belonging to Czechoslovakia ("Sudentenland"), Poland
(Dantzig "corridor"), etc. Those "pacifists" supported their respective
Heads of State, Chamberlain and Daladier, in their giving-in attitude
before the German despot. It was not in vain when Winston Churchill,
the great English statesman, reprimanded Chamberlain by telling him:
"Your choice was between shame and war; you chose shame and you will
have war". In fact, after so many shameful concessions, peaking with
the Munich pact, which legitimately recognized the usurpations of
Germany, it invaded Poland, which led to the Second World War, which
had a toll of 60 million deaths. During the decade of 1970, the handing
over by U.S. government of several Southeast Asian nations to
communists -who unleashed indescribable massacres of millions of
innocent civilians, such as in Cambodia- was in most part precipitated
by pressures on behalf of "pacifists". Other historical examples could
also be mentioned.
During the present, the complex circumstances of war
in Iraq do not impede us from pointing out similarities and censurable
contradictions of Western "pacifist" movements that, with the pretext
of condemning the war, lift up a smoke screen in front of the
dictatorship of Saddam Hussein, in front of the conditions of misery
and oppression of the Iraqi people, in front of the danger which said
regime represents to regional and international peace. As it has
already been denounced, those "pacifist" manifestations which are
spread throughout the world were previously articulated in the recent
Worldwide Social Forum of Porto Alegre, a gigantic catalyst of
revolutionary forces which survived communism.
Those same "pacifists" who cry only with the left eye,
do not only keep silence as to the crimes of the Iraqi dictatorial
regime, but also as to the repressive onslaught unleashed recently by
Fidel Castro against oppositionists and independent journalists; the
cruelties of Colombian narco-guerrillas; the violations of
political-religious rights in countries such as China, Cuba and North
Korea; Christian persecutions in Muslim countries; the pro-Castro
despotism of the Venezuelan President Chávez; the fratricidal
violence of the ETA, in Spain, etc.
It is symptomatic that in the United States entities
that promote anti-war protests, such as "Workers World Party" and
"Answer" their façade entity (at a cost of an estimated 200
thousand dollars per protest), have initiatives in their curriculum in
support of Castro's Cuba, Saddam's Iraq, and Kim Jong Il's North Korea,
as demonstrated by the journalist Dan Springer, of Fox News. In Spain,
protests of the erroneously named "pacifists" resort to violence,
attacking government party headquarters and causing much destruction to
public property. According to a denouncement made in editorial of
Libertad Digital, in Spain there is a resurgence of the "Jacobean
traditional sectarianism", with "violent methods" used by the "extreme
totalitarian left" who are counting on the support, through act or
omission, of the United Left and the Spanish Socialist Workers Party.
In England, Ahmed Chalabi, of the Iraqi National Congress, in exile,
denounced that the supposedly pro-peace activists want to "prolong the
life of Saddam and the misery of the Iraqi people". In Italy,
journalist Ernesto Galli della Loggia, in a front-page article in the
"Corriere della Sera", calls attention to the enormous "capacity" of
the so-called "pacifists" in that country to "manipulate reality",
using as an example the "massive" use in protests of pictures of the
Cuban-Argentinean guerilla "Che" Guevara, who is being presented as a
symbol of "pacifism" when in reality, his cruelty made him contrary to
peace. As Elio Bromuri, another Italian journalist, Communications
Director of Perugia Archdiocese, observed, "pacifist" Italian leaders
are guided by "an ideology that only maintains pacifism in its name".
After the emotional climate artificially created by
the left (with the collaboration of the media), that clouds reason and
common sense, History will, without a doubt, record with severity and
indignation the gigantic social, human and political cost of the
erroneously named "pacifists". The cause of peace is too important to
leave it in their hands.
Lastly, it is important to not confuse the pacifists
with the peaceful. Jesus Christ promised to those last mentioned an
admirable prize: "You shall be named Children of God". The peaceful
ones are those that love true peace, defined by Saint Augustine as "the
tranquility of order". On the contrary, if the pacifists speak of peace
it is as a pretext to fool and immobilize the peaceful, supporters of
order.
