IN response to Sylvia Noble's remarks in 'Truth, first casualty of war,' (Letters, April 1), there is a truth which seems to be fading into the past.
In the Second World War, Nazi Germany was a Fascist state. Fascism means absolute authority. Contrary opinions are not allowed.
Justice is in the service of the State, war is desirable, to advance the power of the state, and social inequality is made a dogma.
Those who belong to the 'wrong' religion, political party or race are outside the law. Lest we forget.
