`”Don’t rejoice in his defeat you men.
For though the world stood up and stopped the bastard,
The bitch that bore him is in heat again.
Bertolt Brecht, 1945
“What good fortune for governments that people do not think.”
Adolph Hitler
Symbolic Notes:
The Iron Cross – Awarded for bravery in battle
“Gott Mit Uns” – The “God With Us” motto on German belt
buckles in both World Wars. But if God takes any sides, it is that of Liberty not tyranny; a fact
all governments would be wise to heed.
The “Edelweis – Symbolic of the holy trinity of the human
Heart, mind and Spirit in which hope springs eternal and unconquerable out of the mire of tyranny.
Edition of Only 13 – The “New World Order” of the “Thousand
Year Reich,” in fact, lasted for only thirteen.
“If God is really “With Us,” we will stop the next war.”
James Nathan Muir/Joan Baez
