A quotation from Eleanor Roosevelt
For years I have hoped that we could stop war as an instrument for settling any national and international difficulties. I have worked for it and shall continue to work for it. However, one has to face the world as it is and, without discarding one’s ideals, meet the realities of the day and keep on working for what one hopes will be a better future.
Eleanor Roosevelt (1884-1962) First Lady of the US (1933-45), politician, diplomat, activist
Column (1940-05-17), “My Day”More about this quote: wist.info/roosevelt-eleanor/80…

A quotation from Bertrand Russell

Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) English mathematician and philosopher
Conquest of Happiness, Part 1, ch. 8 “Persecution Mania” (1930)More info about this quote: wist.info/russell-bertrand/789…

The world as it stands is no illusion, no phantasm, no evil dream of a night; we wake up to it again for ever and ever; we can neither forget it nor deny it nor dispense with it.

“having got rid of such false ideas as that a child was the property of its mother, in the same sense as a limb to be controlled and used without consulting its inclination; and on the child’s part, that it need not face reality but run to its mother for comfort in any trouble, the psychological root of quarrelling, pestering, lying and cringing was torn up and thrown on the bonfire of self-apprehension as a sovereign soul.”

Things must be faced, even in order to be forgiven; the great objection to "letting sleeping dogs lie" is that they lie in more senses than one.

@KonstantinNotz
Kann mich nicht erinnern, dass die Grünen bei den Angriffskriegen der USA bzw. Nato ebenso auf andauernde Verurteilung der Aggression bestanden.
Doppelmoral?
Ansonsten ist die aktuelle Militarisierung der dt. Politik mehr als erschreckend. Offenbar macht das auch von dem Landwirtschafts(!)-Ministerium nicht halt.
Zudem wird ein neuer dt. Militarismus diesen Krieg nicht beenden (sondern ggf. sogar verschlimmern!).

Democrats and Independents in states like #Texas and #Florida need to #FaceReality and admit that #DarkMAGA *cult* members will *never* ‘wake-up’. (Do some research on effing cults, please!)
The solution is to #PrimaryFromTheCenter in the #GOP primaries in red states, and CUT-OUT the nutjobs from general elections!
