COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE IN THE INDEPENDENT
“deeply disturbing
echoes of the dark days of the 1930s”
That is a completely irresponsible statement from Prince
Charles.
Darker and more dangerous than some of the other
irresponsible statements he has a bit of a reputation for making over the years.
It also brings him close to political comment he has no
business making in his position as a modern royal.
I've studied that era thoroughly, and I don't see any real
parallels, beyond a resurgence of nationalism.
I'm not overly fond of nationalism, but I don't regard what
we see as in any serious way "dangerous."
The Prince is repeating "a line" that is being put
out there by a number of newspaper columnists and was put into the Pope's mouth
recently.
I frankly doubt the columnists or the Pope or the Prince
have much hard knowledge of the era of the 1930s.

And where was the good Prince's voice while Obama dropped
over 100,000 bombs on seven countries, killing tens of thousands and driving
hopeless refugees from their homes?
In not one day of his eight years in office was the US not
killing people.
Never heard a squeak.
