The Flag Salute and Pledge of Allegiance Listed below is some information that has been
gleamed from the website: http://rexcurry.net/ Go to said website for thorough information
on the subject. An
early flag salute was Colonel Balch's salute, written
in 1889. That salute went as follows: "We give our heads and our
hearts to God and our country; one country, one language, one Flag."
During the spiel, the youngsters would point at their heads, their heart and
then at the flag. Thus, Balch’s chant ended
with a straight arm pointing at the flag. Balch
had first used his pledge on Flag Day, It
wasn’t until August of 1892, that a pledge and the original Francis
Bellamy (1855-1931) was a national socialist in the Both
Bellamys wanted the government to take over all
schools and create an “industrial army” of totalitarian socialism. The use of government schools to promote
socialist militarism was a monstrous example to the world for decades before
the National Socialist German Worker's Party, the former The
straight-arm salute of the Nazis was adopted from the Children
in the the Bellany’s
speech on Columbus Day in the article written in "Youth's Companion"
of September 8, 1892, sounded like this:
"the children of the States are marshaled and marching" into
indoctrination centers for the "Industrial
Army," “a new social order”...”and universal enlightenment”…”a new experiment
in civilization”…”unite to march as one army under the sacred flag”…”the
training of citizens in the common knowledge and the common duties of
citizenship belongs irrevocably to the State.” He also stated that the schools are FREE, but
purposely neglected the fact that government schools are paid for with taxes
that people are forced to pay whether they want to or not. In his speech, he calls the new schools “Public
Schools” instead of “Government Schools” However, true "public schools,"
today called “private schools,” are schools that people voluntarily pay for and
support. Notice that certain terms are
used as lies to trick people into supporting expensive government schools that
are paid for with force. The
Pledge of Allegiance was expanded in 1954 to what is now said in schools. The Roman “straight-arm
salute” is a Myth The
Roman straight arm salute is a fiction, a myth.
It was introduced and inspired by films such as: American Ben-Hur (1907),
the Italian Nerone (1908), although such films did
not yet standardize the salute or make it exclusively Roman. In Spartaco (1914), even Spartacus used it. The self-styled “Consul” Gabriele D’Annunzio appropriated the salute in its now familiar form
as a propaganda tool for his political aspirations upon his occupation of Notable
other examples of the salute, by then a standard part of ancient iconography in
the cinema, appear in Ben-Hur (1925) and in Cecil B. DeMille’s Sign of the Cross (1932) and Cleopatra (1934),
although the execution of the gesture was still variable. Of particular
importance for the visual record are two films by Leni
Riefenstahl, Triumph of the Will (1935) and Nazi The
term “Nazi” stands for “The National Socialist German Workers’ Party” which
came into existence in 1920. Nazi
dictatorship began in 1933. The
straight-arm salute of the Nazis was adopted from the Fascism in In
1922, Mussolini’s (Marxist) Socialist Party gained power. Benito Mussolini was the leader of the Socialist
Party of Italy. Between 1912 and 1914
Mussolini was the editor of the Socialist Party newspaper, "L'Avanti" (means "in front"), In 1914 he started his own socialist
newspaper "Il Popolo d'Italia"
("The people of Italy"). On The
Results of Socialism The People's Republic of National Socialist German Workers’ Party, 21 million,
1933-1945 (The numbers are from Professor R.
J. Rummel's article in the Encyclopedia of Genocide
(1999)). Three countries alone slaughtered 118 million people. In other words, they were not slaughtered in war by a
foreign country invading; they were slaughtered by their own governments by the
millions. |
