The people are forbidden to give aid and comfort to rebels. What of a government that has the power to cut off from aid and comfort all the rebels of the South and fails to exercise it?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Aid can work where there is good governance, and usually fails where governments are unable or unwilling to commit aid to improve the lives of their people.
I believe this government cannot endure permanently, half slave and half free.
The South is brutalized to a degree not realized by its own inhabitants, and the very foundation of government, law and order, are imperilled.
Only in South Africa could you have a change in government without civil war. If there wasn't the depth of love and caring among our people, this would not have happened.
Who Rebels? Who rises in arms? Rarely the slave, but almost always the oppressor turned slave.
Rebellion has its roots in government's indifference and incompetence.
What is a rebel? A man who says no: but whose refusal does not imply a renunciation.
Republics end through luxury; monarchies through poverty.
A country that relies on aid? Death is better than that. It stops you from achieving your potential, just as colonialism did.
How do you rebel in a family of rebels?
