The Long War Ahead and the Short War Upon Us, by John Wohlstetter
John Wohlstetter’s book, The Long War ahead and the Short War upon Us, is a politically and culturally plain-spoken revelation about the ideological realities behind the already present and inevitably future conflicts facing Western Civilization. For details on the book, visit http://www.longshortwar.com/.
The best quote from the book is a famous one normally attributed to British General Charles James Napier from the 19th Century. It deals with the Hindu practice of Sati:
You say that it is your custom to burn widows. Very well. We also have a custom: when men burn a woman alive, we tie a rope around their necks and we hang them. Build your funeral pyre; beside it, my carpenters will build a gallows. You may follow your custom. And then we will follow ours.
Unbelievably, the practice exposed by Napier’s quote is still sometimes referred to as “self immolation” and still defended as an honorable form of expression for women by some multi-culturalists. Jiminy Cricket!
