Vor einigen Tagen habe ich eine Diskussion mit meiner Tante aus den USA geführt, mit dem Versuch klar zu machen, wo eigentlich dieser unerträgliche Patriotismus hinführen könnte. Wo er schon andere Nationen hingeführt hat. Dabei hat es mich erwischt und habe das folgende geschrieben:
We have been brought together,
by blood, steel and death.
We raised
to the greatest.
A Nation that never fears anybody
exept God.
We stood together
for emperor, God and fatherland.
We faught together,
bleed together
died alone.
We have been patriots,
Pain, misery, hardship
brought to the world,
by a proud nation
nationalists.
We have been defeated,
torn to shreds.
The greatest destroyed.
We have seen darkness
pain
poverty
starvation
endless suffering.
We have brought
pain
poverty
starvation
endless suffering.
We shall NEVER forget!
are blindness
are arrogance
are hate
are hate
are hate!
We have revived again
a humble Nation
never forgetting the dark history.
We are very carefull
Patriotism – nationalism.
We know what we have done
We will never forget.
We are Germany
a strong Nation
thankful
humble.
We will not bring War to the World again!
This is part of our history
and these are our colors
Black-Red-Gold
