what motivates those who say silent about atrocities like NOLA

[undergroundpanther]

Another sentinel aspect of the crimes of the depraved is the tendency to blame their victims with the expectation that the general public will go along with the ruse. The poor who could not escape Fallujah, the poor that could not escape New Orleans, the Vietnamese who had their towns destroyed "to save them" all represent victims of a pattern of depraved criminal violence against the defenseless.

The depraved criminal is not like the rest of us, so we have a hard time understanding how they think. For the depraved all suffering of the weak is an opportunity, something positive, something to be wished for, and if possible, engineered. We are told that "intelligence failures" led to 9/11, we are told that "intelligence failures" led to the Iraq war, we are told that "intelligence failures" led to the tragedy in New Orleans. It is an "intelligence failure" for us to continue believing these lame excuses.

Many people have studied the psychological aspects of the German people that allowed the Fascists to ignite World War II. A consistent theme in these accounts by Arendt, Reich and others, is in their calling attention to the amazing degree of gullibility on the part of a German population that was eager to absorb and digest, with equanimity, the outrageous propaganda of the Nazi party.

The conclusion of decades of scholarship is summed up in the title of Goldhaggen's book, Hitler’s Willing Executioners. In light of this analysis of history, it can be seen that gross crimes, such as are now being perpetrated by the US ruling elite that control our "democracy," can only be perpetrated with the passive cooperation of significant proportion of our society.

REMEMBER in the dignostic criteria of SOCIOPATHS .. People like Bush and all other perpretrators of abuses and crimes against the vunerable want thier victims to belive they were WILLING...victims..
They want the public to believe the victims WANTED it.
Scary when you listen to these repugs blaming survivors for not having the means to get out of NOLA..As if being poor in a unequal society like ours and having no car was thier own fault.

4. and they do it well

I refer you to a post elsewhere here on DU:

"Liberalism is dead because liberalism has failed to come to grips with the power of insane, unreasonable hatred, willful ignorance, and vindictiveness. Because it politely acquiesced to secrecy, treachery, and calculated unscrupulousness. Because it tolerated murderous intolerance. Because it was so pacifistic that it could not organize to defend itself against a relentless, decades long campaign to trash our educational system, to subvert our free press, to bring CIA tactics to bear on the American population. Great Society liberals were outmaneuvered for a quarter century, being systematically robbed of the legacy of 100 years of activism. Let’s face it. We had some power, and we lost it by playing fair long after it was clear the other side would stop at nothing."

3. Like pedophiles. They claim their victims seduced them.

I keep thinking of that insane German guy looking for someone who wanted to be eaten by him for sexual gratification. And he got a bunch of responses. *Co is like that insane cannibal.

I don't feel like I'm from the same species sometimes.

6. What demotivates those who talk and talk and don't disobey?

9/11 Build Bushville, DC

On 9/11 survivors of Katrina will perform an act of NONVIOLENT Civil Disobedience by setting up camp on the Washington, DC Mall.

Bushville, DC will remain as long as it takes to get answers and change.

Visit http://www.bushville.org and spread the word.

We will camp on Bush's doorstep and make him face us every day until he is driven from power.

Push this website hard, please. Help make history. We are contacting as many local activists as we can.
