No good guys win but strong



The First and the Second World War was not won by the most good but by the strong.

In the first half of the 20th century Europe was shaken by two world wars that endangered values ​​important to our species, especially the lives of millions of people.

There were political and military leaders so influential that still retain their bad reputation: Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini.

After World War II ended, it was clear to all who the winners but until that happened, no one knew what the future held.

If Hitler and Mussolini had won the race the world today would be different and instead of condemning them furiously as we do, we would be filled with shame for the losers.

All great people who took sides in favor of those who finished were also defeated losers and so today we do not remember, his achievements were forgotten, their valuable contributions took fire along with the failure of their authors.

The human emotional immaturity makes us tick as cranky kids, warlike, hyperactive, incontinent, foolish.

Maybe someday recognize that the worst mistake of Nazism (led by Hitler) and fascism (led by Mussolini) came from they were overcome by a cooperative of armies of several countries (the Allies).

This sum of forces ended the imperialist ambitions of the two great leaders, but did not win because they were right, and were more intelligent, nor were lit by some higher being, they won because they managed to add more strength, more violence, more firepower.

Both sides are made up of the best and worst of our species and our child folly that makes us believe that the good guys won and lost bad. No: won the strong and the weak lost.

Note: Original in Spanish (without translation by Google): No ganan los buenos sino los fuertes.
