They have written of "the inviolability of history."
What is "the inviolability of history?" Who will tell me what it applies to? I suspect that it means that big lies are unfair history, but who knows?
I do know that someone sees it as an important part of the "Manifesto" of FoWL. It seems it is meant to be one of the broad ideals to which FoWL are committed. It is number two on their list of five.
"As I See It Today" could be the title of this new iteration of my main blog. The "It" would then be the following themes with which I intend to deal here: ~ history ~ politics, economics, government ~ family tree ~ people, places, ~ culture, society ~ dialogue and a bit of me

FoWL Manifesto Continued
Among "Broad ideals" are "Privacy for the weak" and " "Transparency for the powerful."
These sound right and good to me if "privacy" means privacy for communications which effects principally the participants and "transparency" refers to communication which effects many beyond the participants.

"The Inviolability of History"
The second of the five broad ideals of the FoWL manifesto speaks of "the inviolability of history."
What do they mean by "the inviolability of history" What it seems to mean to me is that history is history. Perhaps there is a hint of a hope that the men who hold it are honest. What is your guess?
