“Night of the Long Knives” was an attack of Nazi’s against other Nazis; a purge of the ranks. If the attack on creches was like “Night of the Long Knives” it would be Christians attacking and destroying Christmas creches.

I think what you really mean is that this attack on creches is like the ***kristallnacht, ***or the “crystal night,” when Jewish homes and storefronts were attacked and ransacked by the Nazis.

(A good comparison only if fundamentalists are making these attacks, and I don’t think that’s the case.)

The CIRCLE has turned and we are about, again, to experience persecution.

I was listening to an Audio tape about Fatima recently and I could not help but be awed by the attitude of Francisco & Jacina toward death, in their case, violent and painfull death.
