George Orwell

Orwell took part in the struggle against Franco's Fascist revolt in Spain from 1936, where Franco was the advance proxy for Hitler and Mussolini. Orwell saw that we cannot determine the weapons or timing or tactics chosen by the enemy, that we must remain forever vigilant in defence of freedom, and determined to prevail, to rout and not merely contain or reduce the threat, and that the real choice is between being an armed democrat or else ending up a dead slave.

You back either the Arsonist or the Fire-Fighter, the Drugs Gang or the Drugs Squad, the Suicide-bomber or the Bomb Squad. To stay neutral is to surrender.

*We sleep safe in our beds because rough men stand ready in the night to do violence to those who would harm us*. George Orwell [ pen-name of Eric Arthur Blair ], 1903-1950.

His thoughts on Cowardly Silence - Ralph Chaplin, 1887-1961

*Mourn not the dead that in the cold earth lie -
Dust unto dust -
The calm, sweet earth that mothers all who die
As all men must.

But rather mourn the apathetic throng -
The cowed and the meek -
Who see the world's great anguish and its wrong
And dare not speak*.

Ralph Chaplin, 1887-1961,

Chicago labor activist, particularly in IWW -Industrial Workers of the World.
That verse also sums up the lethal silence of the majority of Germans, and their clergy, in the face of the Nazi advance, a silence echoed to-day among those who ignore or deny the threat of the fanatical fringe, the TAKFIRI JIHADIS, who are the COMMON enemy of freedom and democracy for Muslims as well as for the rest of humanity.
