A characteristic of a government that has gone criminal-as has sometimes happened in history-is that its leaders cannot learn: all records and good sense may tell them that disaster follows oppression; yet it has taken violent revolutions to handle them, or a World War II to get rid of a Hitler and those were very unhappy events for mankind. Such did not learn. They reveled in false data. They refused all evidence and truth. They had to be blown away.
