What Price Normandy?

by Taki Theodoracopulos

June 02, 2018
 

German Military Cemetery, Normandy

Back in New York and digesting the five glorious days I spent in Normandy. What was the fighting all about, you may ask: Was it about equality, cultural diversity, man’s dignity? All liberal catchphrases these days. Liberty and freedom are also big words now, but all I see are massive central governments with arbitrary powers à la Brussels and Washington, D.C. Normandy promised us a lot but, as far as I’m concerned, delivered little. If freedom of speech was nonexistent in Germany in 1940, the arbitrary powers vested in political correctness make it just as rare in London and New York in 2018.

The title and premise:
"What Price Normandy?"

What price, indeed.

The world and values those young men stormed the beaches for seems to be disappearing before our eyes, up in so much smoke.

Speak openly of what would be required to return to it, and you risk being called a number of epithets and insults.
