the first victim of war is ...the truth

So in light of the fact we are at war now. Yes we are. Too many times we have been attacked to say otherwise. So now we must always tell the truth and make sure to tell as many people as possible. Let others know of events that happen in the world. If when watching the news you see a story told a certain way that is not quite right then send a letter to that station politely stating a different point of view, back your idea with prove and evidence.

Prior to the second world war there were enough signs and info to get people to take proper action , however this did not happen. People put there heads in the sand and said that the people who were talking against Nazi Germany were hate mongerers and trouble makers , and they should be ignored.

We know what then happened.
