Stockholm Syndrome or Southern Syndrome?

Writes Ralph Raico:

A perceptive article by Professor Gottfried, as usual. As a Northern ethnic, I am bemused by the Southern bellicosity he points out. It seems that a kind of Stockholm Syndrome has been at work, whereby Southerners identify with their oppressors, and keep giving their enthusiastic support to the warmongers in Washington. Before the Second World War, for instance, the South was the only region that lacked a chapter of the America First Committee. White Southerners disproportionately volunteer for every overseas aggression the Feds decide on. It’s sad, really, and pathetic.
