| The complaint is that Carson was criticizing the victims in Oregon. When the Jewish Defense League says "Never Again!" are they criticizing the murdered Jews during WWII? A book titled "They Fought Back" gathered stories of Jewish resistance during WWII and was not a criticism of the murder victims. Solzenetzin (sp ?) wrote how the prisoners in Stalin's gulags criticized themselves for not resisting the secret police en masse. He thought that might have cut short the mass arrests if the police did not feel safe. Who had more right to criticize than the prisoners themselves? We congratulate the brave citizens who took down the gunman on that train in France. Are we criticizing all the other passengers who did not participate? No. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
