[quote:Asael:MV8yMTIyMDkxXzM1ODA3NjA5XzQxRENCMEND] [quote:Anonymous Coward 32996962:MV8yMTIyMDkxXzM1ODA3NDk0X0VEMkJBMzU2] [quote:WhiteAbyss:MV8yMTIyMDkxXzM1ODA3MzkyXzEwNzEwRTY=] I hope you people that are part of the "Illuminati" are well hidden, deep... deep in your underground bunkers. The resistance will prevail, we will hunt you down and destroy your very existence. [/quote] We ARE the resistance! Ok; they, not me. I'm just in for the ride. They were the spark that ignited the French & Russian revolutions. "For Revolutionists there is no rest but in the tomb." -- Saint-Just "Louis was a king, and our republic is established; the critical question concerning you must be decided by these words alone. Louis was dethroned by his crimes; Louis denounced the French people as rebels; he appealed to chains, to the armies of tyrants who are his brothers; the victory of the people established that Louis alone was a rebel; Louis cannot therefore be judged; he already is judged. He is condemned, or the republic cannot be absolved. To propose to have a trial of Louis XVI, in whatever manner one may, is to retrogress to royal despotism and constitutionality; it is a counter-revolutionary idea because it places the revolution itself in litigation. In effect, if Louis may still be given a trial, he may be absolved, and innocent. What am I to say? He is presumed to be so until he is judged. But if Louis is absolved, if he may be presumed innocent, what becomes of the revolution? If Louis is innocent, all the defenders of liberty become slanderers. Our enemies have been friends of the people and of truth and defenders of innocence oppressed; all the declarations of foreign courts are nothing more than the legitimate claims against an illegal faction. Even the detention that Louis has endured is, then, an unjust vexation; the fédérés, the people of Paris, all the patriots of the French Empire are guilty; and this great trial in the court of nature judging between crime and virtue, liberty and tyranny, is at last decided in favor of crime and tyranny. Citizens, take warning; you are being fooled by false notions; you confuse positive, civil rights with the principles of the rights of mankind; you confuse the relationships of citizens amongst themselves with the connections between nations and an enemy that conspires against it; you confuse the situation of a people in revolution with that of a people whose government is affirmed; you confuse a nation that punishes a public functionary to conserve its form of government, and one that destroys the government itself. We are falling back upon ideas familiar to us, in an extraordinary case that depends upon principles we have never yet applied." -- Robespierre [/quote] I think he means the OWO not the illuminati you are talking about. Shame they've done such a good job of corrupting the name. [/quote]
