A quotation from Henry Commager

We are shocked when we see educators, timid before criticism and confused about first principles, betray their trust. And we wonder what can be that "philosophy of education" which believes that young people can be trained to the duties of citizenship by wrapping their minds in cotton wool.

Henry Steele Commager (1902-1998) American historian, writer, activist
Essay (1947-09), “Who Is Loyal to America?” sec. 1, Harper’s Magazine, Vol. 195, No. 1168

Did you know that the #Netherlands owes someone a country?

When the 'Dutch East Indies' existed, they had an army. It included the Moluccans, an #indigenous people from #Indonesia.

They promised the displaced Moluccans their own state for their service.

After waiting ~20 years, a Moluccan group #hijacked a train of 50 for 12 days. 2 years later another train & a school, & 1 yr after that, a county hall.

14 people died, including - controversially - all the hijackers.
