Just like the Nazis, communists, or monarchists who still await the resurrection of Hitler, Enver, or Zog, some democrats today hope that Sali Berisha will make a strong return to the scene.
Adolf Hitler committed suicide in his bunker on April 30, 1945. Eyewitnesses, those closest to him, gave clear evidence of the manner of his suicide. However, for decades, thousands of Nazis refused to believe this fact and harbored the hope that he had escaped and was living in hiding somewhere in Argentina, Brazil, or even Antarctica.
Nazi fanatics did not easily accept that their "Führer" had lost his life; the belief that he was alive helped them maintain the illusion of the ideology that had guided them.
This came to my mind when I saw 300 Democrats at Sali Berisha's protest.
After 6 months of calls and preparations for a "Great Revolution", he gathered fewer people than at the "funeral".
No one joined him because most consider him politically dead.
Over 1 million Albanians are against the government today, but they did not come out in public because for them, Berishism is a closed chapter.
Only the general of the dead army was there.
There were only the last 300 "soldiers", who neither cheered nor showed enthusiasm. The protest, or rather the rostrum, looked like a funeral. A handful of people, sad, followed the last act of their "Führer" who from his political bunker tried to give them courage that they had not yet capitulated and that they would defeat America, England, Europe and even Russia.
A leader's last call always comes just before his fall, while the soldiers' hope often continues even after his fall.
In the villages of Mat, until recently, there were people who believed that King Ahmet Zog had not died and that one day he would return to Albania.
Even in Gjirokastra, I met communists who believed that Enver Hoxha was not dead, that the man at the funeral was his double, and that their true leader was immortal.
Just like the Nazis, communists, or monarchists who still await the resurrection of Hitler, Enver, or Zog, some democrats today hope that Sali Berisha will make a strong return to the scene.
But the most backward part of a people does not understand, or does not accept, that ideology does not die at the same time as man.
Even if Hitler, Enver, or Zog were alive, their doctrine was dead.
Sali Berisha, may he live for 150 years; but Berishism is politically over. The problem is that, if he does not declare capitulation, the Democratic Party risks suffering the fate of Germany in 1945: of a leader who did not accept defeat and burned everything along with himself, bringing about over 8 million victims among his people.
Any further resistance by Berisha will not save the DP, on the contrary, it will destroy it, burn every cause and kill the hope of 500 thousand democrats.
William Shakespeare described it correctly when he quoted: "The king is dead, but his ghost and shadow rule the castle."
Democrats need to come out of the bunker and not burn with their Hitler.
Let him die dreaming that he won the war with America, with England, with...
