A Civilization whose Defense is Abandoned is a Civilization that is Lost
Paul Craig Roberts
For many years I have expressed concern that Western Civilization was being destroyed intentionally from within by failing to convey the civilization’s achievements to succeeding generations via education. Instead, education was used to alienate generations from their own civilization by stressing evils such as wars, slavery, oppression of blacks and women, oppression of other peoples as the result of colonial rule, abuse of children by parents, religious prejudices, class prejudices, and so on.
The history of Western Civilization as a series of great reforms was kept from generation after generation so successfully that today hardly anyone under sixty years of age knows about them.
Western civilization has many achievements in science, technology, architecture, music, art, but perhaps the greatest achievement of Western Civilization began in the ninth century during the reign of Alfred the Greet in what became England. Alfred established law based on the people’s beliefs and behavior–the English Common Law–not on the edicts of a king. This was the beginning of developments over the centuries that culminated in the Glorious Revolution of 1680 that established that the king was subject to the law and the law was established by the commoners and the aristocrats in Parliament, thus making the king accountable to the people.
The accountability of government rested on free speech. Without free speech truth cannot be ascertained. The Americans who inherited the notion of government accountable to the people inscribed in the US Constitution the right to free speech.
In recent years this right on which accountable government rests has been eroded in the US and essentially destroyed in the UK.
In America today citizens who use the Constitutionally protected right of free speech can lose their jobs, can be prohibited from contracting with or having jobs with many state governments. If they are students who protest Israel’s genocide of the Palestinians, they are expelled from the university, and if they are foreign students they are deported. The universities do nothing to protect the free speech that the US Constitution guarantees. Neither do the bar associations nor the law schools.
Free speech is in the way of anti-Western civilization ideologies. We must believe that white racism, not the black King of Dahomey’s slave wars, is the cause of black slavery. We are denied the fact that blacks held blacks in slavery and the fact that the blacks sent to the New World were enslaved by blacks, and that colonists in the New World purchased already enslaved blacks for a labor force.
White people did not enslave black people. Black people sold as slaves were enslaved by the black King of Dahomey. You will not be able to find this fact in any Black Studies program in any university.
The generations of indoctrination of white people against themselves, called education, has produced a situation in which law is no longer applied to the guilty but to his victim. Black immigrant-invaders are protected against hate speech and an accusation of rape has become hate speech.
In the UK, and also I believe in Norway and Sweden and perhaps throughout the EU, a white woman who reports a rape or a gang-rape might be charged with a hate crime against a “person of color.”
This possibility essentially conveys rape privileges to black immigrant-invaders to rape white European women. The police are as likely to hold the rape victim accountable for a hate crime as to hold the rapist accountable for rape.
In England these rapes went on for 30 years with the police and the British government doing nothing about it except covering it up. A year or two ago former British prime minister Liz Truss said that for 30 years the British government covered up the rapes. It stilll does.
In the current issue of the City Journal, Darran Anderson notes that while the UK “justice” system ignores the rape of white children by black immigrant-invaders, it has put 12,000 British citizens in prison for messages posted online deemed to be “offensive.”
Can you understand the situation? If you exercising free speech say something anyone can find offensive, off you go to prison. But if you are black and rape or gang rape a white female, your crime is erased.
As Darren Anderson says in the current issue of the City Journal:
“A rape victim received a longer sentence than her rapist after calling him a pig. The notion that such things could never happen in England has long been disproven by the Muslim grooming-gang scandals where institutional fear and negligence led police, the mainstream media, and civil authorities to erase thousands of rape victims” as if they had never been raped.
In Great Britain today if you are a black immigrant-invader, you can rape as many white British women as you want without consequence, but if one of your victims calls you a name off she goes to prison.
In the United States a sizable collection of special interests–the Israel Lobby, the Military-security complex, Big Pharma, Agri-business, and Energy rules the US government. The American President is their puppet. If he fails to serve their interest he is finished.
How exactly does one go about defending a civilization in which governments serve interests other than those of the people ?
