“Obedience to tyranny is a crime against humanity. Every one of you who obeyed the laws and edicts of your corrupt rulers are complicit in their crimes. You enabled them to commit atrocities the world over because you obeyed. “Each and every one of you is a sovereign human being with free will granted to you by the Maker. But he didn’t leave you to wander in this life without guidance. He whispers truth to you in the face of every moral dilemma you encounter. At every turn, with every choice, you have only to listen to your conscience to know the right and just course. “But you chose to submit to the will of tyrants and liars, to place their dictates above true justice. You chose to believe that because another claims authority over you, that their word is law, but it is not. There is only one law … the Old Law. And it comes not from the will of men, but from the nature of the world. “When you chose to ignore that, when you chose to deny the gentle voice of morality that is your conscience in favor of obedience to an authority that has no rightful claim on your free will, you chose tyranny and war.”
