The New Enthusiasm For Slaughter - OpEd

Mar 17, 2025 | eurasiareview.com | David Bell

My mother once told me how my father still woke up screaming in the night years after I was born, decades after the Second World War (WWII) ended. I had not known – probably like most children of those who fought. For him, it was visions of his friends going down in burning aircraft – other bombers of his squadron off north Australia – and to be helpless, watching, as they burnt and fell. Few born after that war could really appreciate what their fathers, and mothers, went through.

The Right To Speak Evil - OpEd

Sep 26, 2024 | eurasiareview.com | David Bell

Words can harm. The childhood saying “Sticks and stones may break my bones but words will never hurt me” is obviously untrue. Words bring ruin and despair, drive people to suicide, and foment massacres and war. They are used to justify the enslavement of nations, and the genocide of entire ethnic groups. This is exactly why we must all, always, be free to speak them. In a perfect world, lies and deceit would not exist. We would have no reason to fear the spoken word.
