Iraq og CSA

Fra Varifrank:

Once upon a time there was a country and a people beset by war. Thousands of people died in the war, civilians and soldiers. In the end, the country was occupied by a foreign power. The defeated army fled the invading army from the battlefield with their weapons in hand and ran into the country to mingle with the civilian population. One of the defeated generals began to form a group to fight back as an insurgency against the occupying power. This group took the form of a secret society, one that had the direct support of part of the population.

This group began to terrorize the countryside, harassing, threatening and killing members of the populace that supported the occupying army and its new rules which flew in the face of cultural values that the people of the defeated country had lived with for years.

Eventually, the occupying army “pulled out” The secret society thrived, and many more people died. For years afterward, it was simply unsafe for certain people to walk in certain parts of town. Public killings and bombings of public places were common and almost never persecuted, as the secret society had infiltrated its members into the police force and into the judiciary.

So were talking about Iraq again, right? Oh no dear reader, this is you and me I’m talking about. This is Mississippi and the rest of the Confederate States of America. Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest didn’t like the fact that his country had been defeated, and he and his band of “dead enders” created an organization called the “Ku Klux Klan”. They terrorized the newly emancipated black population and anyone who supported them. For 100 years, black men were lynched with disturbing regularity in the south. General Forrest wrapped himself in the flag and perverted the bible and sold his secret society as a way for the men who had been defeated to maintain their honor and sacred heritage.

He used that platform of hate to justify terror against a civilian population to take revenge for his defeat at the hands of a superior army on the battlefield.

Der er meget mere. Læs det hele selv.

Hello!

I am fascinated to find you linked to my post. I apologize for not being able to read Danish, but I would like to hear what you had to say about it.

If you could be so kind as to drop me an email, I would appreciate hearing from you.

Thanks,
