The group initially called the Mujahedin was later referred to as hypocrites. Their biggest mistake was turning against their country and supporting Saddam Hussein; this was their worst action. The Chinese Communist Party, despite its intense conflict with the government, set aside its differences and entered the war against Japan when conflict ensued. They sacrificed a large number of martyrs; for this reason, after the war, people trusted them. A worse example than the hypocrites were the revolutionary Russian peasants; they too were in conflict with the government, seizing lands and distributing them among farmers. In 1905, when Japan attacked Russia, they took advantage of the situation, plunged the country into chaos, and weakened the government. With Japan attacking on one side and internal turmoil on the other, the government, realizing the continuation of this situation would result in the loss of the country, reluctantly signed a peace treaty with Japan to later suppress the internal rebellion; and so it happened. Another example is in France; the Communists were in conflict with the government when World War II started. They strongly fought against the Germans in support of their nation. Many French Communists were killed; the Germans captured and executed many of them; due to the Communists’ support for their country, people developed a great fondness for them.
The public’s hatred towards the hypocrites stems from their collaboration with the enemy against their own country and people; such instances are rare worldwide. They acted like those Russians; however, in China and France, it was the opposite; they were opposed to the government but acted in their country’s interest; this is one aspect of political ethics.
