The Spread of Fanatics

In the 21st Century beside the spread of Democracy, it is the Fanatics who are also once again on the march. Currently it is the Fanatics who wage any one of the shooting wars worldwide. It is the Fanatics who systematically slaughter Democratic groups throughout the World and are gradually taking over. It is the Fanatics who bomb, behead, murder, or honor-kill. It is the Fanatics who zealously spread the stoning and hanging of rape victims and homosexuals. It is the Fanatics who teach their young to kill and to become suicide bombers.

The hard, quantifiable fact is that the peaceful majority, the 'silent majority,' is cowed and extraneous. 1917 Russia was comprised of Russians who just wanted to live in peace, yet the Russian Communists were responsible for the murder of no less than 40 million people. The peaceful majority were irrelevant. China's huge population was peaceful as well in 1949 but Mao Communists when finished, managed to kill a staggering 70 million people.

The average Japanese individual prior to World War II was not a warmongering sadist. Yet, the Imperial Japanese Armed Forces murdered and slaughtered its way across South East Asia in an orgy of killing that included as an example, the systematic murder of 12 million Chinese civilians; mostly killed by sword, shovel, and bayonet. Then who can forget Rwanda, which on what seems like a whim collapsed into butchery. Could it not be said that the majority of Rwandans were not "Peace Loving"?

Histories lessons are often incredibly simple and blunt, yet for all our powers of reason, we often miss the most basic and uncomplicated of points:
- Peace-Loving People have always been made irrelevant by their silence.
- Other Peace-Loving People will become our enemy if they don't speak up, because like 1933 Germany, they will awaken one day and find that the Fanatics own them, and the end of their world will have begun.
- History has shown that Peace - Loving Germans, Japanese, Chinese, Russians, Rwandans, Serbs, Afghans, Iraqis, Palestinians, Somalis, Nigerians, Algerians, Cambodians and many others have died because the peaceful majority did not speak up until it was too late!
- As for us who watch it all unfold on TV or the Internet and believe this can only happen to someone else. We must pay attention to the only group that counts, "The Fanatics" who will always threaten our way of life and hence, we must always be prepared to stand up to them!
