Revisionism


Several countries have been involved with "re-writing history". The Japanese finally mentioned WW II in their textbooks just a few years ago. The Turks seem to be reluctant to mention what happened in 1915.
The Truth: I met and talked with a gentleman whose father fled Turkey and arrived in Iraq because it was safer! The son built the first new building on the base in Mosul, Iraq -- a church -- picture to follow soon.
I see that this blog is being viewed internationally just a few weeks after it has begun. Thanks.
Our country, the USA has been hit by quite a bit of this revisionism for the last 40+ years. It began slowly with a few, maybe legitimate adjustments, but has expanded to include what another person thinks you are thinking. Hungary 1945-1988: the secret police would arrest a person for reading an article in a professional magazine! Read: The Bridge at Andau.

This has got to stop, and stop it will when more people are empowered to tell the truth on the blogs and internet.
