When you control a people's history, you control a people.

Its of vital importance to many that the current interpretation of historical events does not change.

Its also of vital importance to some to revise history to fit their model.

The truth is there are as many histories as there are people. It depends on who you ask. Traditionally a good way to research what really happened in the past was to look to the writings of the losers, the downtrodden, as they often were not trying to justify their diminished state...so you figure more honesty there.

Recently this model has ceased to work because some have decided its in their best interest to perpetuate their dowtrodden status. Not that they never were downtrodden...just that its offensive to some when the person on the top of the pile is still complaining about how victimized they are.

In all honesty though, we are all victims and we are all persecuters.

All are responsible for All.

When we begin to realize this we will start to write a whole new history.
