What if the Nazis had won?
They say history is written by the winner, and to a great extent, that is true, but if they would have won, one of the things that would have happened is that there would be no acceptance of another colour, race, religion, or lifestyle. We would all be straight blue eyed blondes, or dead.
Many men and women died to prevent that.
They died in preserving the foundation for our way of life today.
We must remember those men and women who are always on active duty. Those who laid down their lives to help form the world we live in today.
Spreading the blatant prejudice that is inherent in trying to ban marriages for those who are not like you, does not honour the fallen, because any statement that gives one human being more rights than another is the beginnings of selecting a new master race.
We are not all the same. And those who want everyone to believe the same thing, and be the same? Well... It's been tried, and too many have died to stop it already.
Unless, of course, you think Hitler should have won, and we should all be Aryans. And yeah, if you do, then you are allowed to think that, because of the freedoms you enjoy.
Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind...War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today.
~ John F. Kennedy
Of course, there is more to this, in history. There are things the Alliance didn't do properly at the end of the war, and I am making this very black and white, but, as it is my journal, and these are my opinions, I can do it, again, because of the freedoms I enjoy.
