As I was watching the USA's election in the doctor's lounge, one old-timer physician made an interesting comment:
"It is interesting that in history, people have switched sides. In the Civil War, Republicans were in the North led by Abraham Lincoln and were anti-slavery. Pro-slavery conservative white democrats dominated the South. One hundred sixty years fast forward; the North is full of socialist democrats, and the South is red, more conservative states. Unfortunately, this is true throughout human history. Victims turned into aggressors; defenders became attackers; pacificists generated into warmongers; anti-this and pro that switched to anti-that and pro-this; and builders turned into destroyers or vice versa. Pick any nation, religion, or culture - you will see this phenomenon perpetually happening".

So true indeed
This frequently reminds me of the atrocities I learn about on a daily basis about Israel and Jews These are the very same people who were considered 6 miilion killed but during last half century of 20th one see how they have become attackers on those people who gave them their land
Agree. A prime example...
