Why Are These Three Little Pigs So Popular?

Why Are These Three Little Pigs So Popular?The essays of Ben Jonson and Jane Jacobs both attest to the popularity of the three little pigs, which are two-legged creatures, a symbol of freedom, in many countries. Many consider the dogs or wolves the proper image for any Englishman or British animal.But history is filled with war speeches, but few of these have been as funny as the story of the three little pigs who sneaked into the royal castle of Windsor and began to destroy all the locks of the king's wardrobe. You might ask why anyone would commit such an act, let alone the three little pigs. Well, that answer lies with the modern Englishman, as the three little pigs may seem like mere toys to us in this society, but they are a warning for the future of our civilisation.We are all of us aware of war speeches, both the good and the bad. We all know about the speeches of Hitler or Mussolini. We all know about the propaganda, or the spread of hate and anger through the media and even the newspapers.And yet we can listen to those speeches and laugh at them, despite the fact that there are millions of people living in these countries. There are wars in these countries, but they do not define the behaviour of the people there. It is only when it comes to our Western democracies that we have an election campaign on which we have to make our choice of the leader and a military campaign which must then go on to defend our country from foreign threats.While we are protected from a serious invasion from the sea, the air and the land, we still live under the constant threat of attacks from other countries, other states. The armies of the third world nations do not see us as their enemy. They see the British and Americans as their enemy, but the enemy that they feel is closest to them.Thus, it is only when it comes to the United States, that we are subjected to the things that are known as big brother. This is a process that must be stopped at all costs, as if it was ever to be allowed to continue, we would have something that is no longer British, but American.If the world becomes too big for the little pigs, if the idea of a free society goes out of the window, then there will be a fall of civilisation. When war is the thing that defines our society, then perhaps we should speak out against such behaviour. Perhaps it is time to use these three little pigs as the basis of a better society.
