World War II political cartoon
"....She jumped on us and hit us violently...."
Ninety three Lauriston Street in Paris France is the address of the infamous
building used as a headquarters of the Gestapo, during the Nazi occupation of Paris.
That was where the members of the French Resistance who had been caught, were
taken to be tortured and killed by criminal collaborators. In the above cartoon, the
woman who was being "interrogated" has been beaten to death so viciously that even
her chair has been shattered. And then, immediately after her murder, the killers
begin creating the false narrative for her official cause of death, in which the victim is
responsible for her own death, thereby absolving themselves of guilt for the crime
of murder, and giving themselves permission to continue the killings as usual.
That false narrative of the responsibility for her death is remarkably similar to
what is happening now in Minneapolis. A gestapo like force of gun-happy, masked,
helmeted and booted recruits of the Department Of Homeland Security, in greater
numbers than the local police force, has invaded that community. They were so
poorly trained that they have already killed two ICE protesters and injured other
citizens. Immediately after the killings, the head of the DHS began the false narrative
that it was the victims who were attacking the gunmen, even though the video
recordings of the assaults, clearly prove that she is lying. This woman is totally
unqualified to be the head of such an important department. She was only given
that cabinet position because she was willing to worship at the feet of Trump. She
will no doubt continue to follow Trump's lead, and lie as long as he continues to
lie, and since he never stops lying, their lies will go on denying the facts and the truth.
The saddest part of the whole story, is that the whole MAGA cult continues to
support Trump in his claims that all of the other "different" kinds of people are the
source of all of our problems in this country. His followers continue to accept all of
his lies as truth, as if they are living in an alternate universe, where white is black
and black is white. They are the same people who would have supported Adolph
Hitler's lies, no matter how inhumane were the results.
