Astonishing Quote

https://www.moviequotes.com/s-movie/the-life-and-death-of-colonel-blimp/ 

“We read in the newspapers that the after-war years were bad everywhere, that crime was increasing and that honest citizens were having a hard job to put the gangsters in jail. Well, in Germany the gangsters finally succeeded in putting the honest citizens in jail.”
Anton Walbrook - Theo Kretschmar-Schuldorff

I have wanted to watch this   movie   for many years. Finally  got around to  seeing it last night.

The  above quote really resonated. Today,  here in the USA we have  an identical  situation. Fascism is rising dramatically. Our leadership in 'murica, are  a bunch of gangsters. How supremely prophetic  was this  quote!


“This time you're fighting for your very existence against the most devilish idea ever created by a human brain: Nazism. And if you lose, there won't be a return match next year... perhaps not even for a hundred years.”
