  • No Nation has Ever been Founded in Peace

    “No Nation has ever been founded in peace, but only by the instincts of self preservation, which may take the form either of heroic virtue or crafty cunning”

    “When Nations are fighting for their very existence on this earth, when they are faced with the crucial question, to be or not to be, all considerations of ethics and humanity vanishes into thin air...Humanitarian conceptions are but a product of mans imagination”

    “Nations are united only by the hope of common success, common acquisitions, a mutual expansion of power – in short by the hope of common conquest”

    “Today I am guided only by the cold argument that lost territories cannot be reconquered by the speeches of sharp parliamentarians, but only by a sharp sword – a bloody war”

    “An alliance that does not include war among its aims is foolish and useless. Alliances are formed for the sole purpose of war...”

    “Everywhere one being feeds upon another, for the death of the weaker means life for the stronger”

    “If a man believes himself capable of entering a contract with parasites, then it is similar to the attempt of a tree to make an agreement in its own favor with a mistletoe”

    “The key to both world history and human civilization in general lies in the race question”

    Adolf Hitler - Mein Kampf 1925

    Strikes a similar cord to what is happening in our World Today albeit with political rhetoric using “smart people” “smart words” and “smart sanctions” until the critical question arises: “To be or Not to be?” So are we really not at war with a certain philosophy?
