The government has lost its legitimacy due to its inability to protect the Icelandic people from long-term penury and its unwillingness to swiftly bring the criminals responsible for this travesty to justice. Only by completely purging the system can we restart. The stolen assets must be returned now, the responsible parties must be held personally responsible now. If the government isn’t willing to deliver that justice, it’s time to instate a government that is.
I cannot conceive of why the countries defrauded by Icelandic businessmen would help us, as long as these traitors remain at large. Until we clean our own house, our complaints about the unfairness of being held liable for the transgressions of a few will fall on deaf ears. Until we stand up for ourselves as a people, we are in no position to beg forgiveness and assistance.
For the first time in our history, we must stand up against our oppressors and reclaim our independence.
