In a court of law, hearsay is an out-of-court statement offered to prove the truth of the matter asserted (i.e., the truth of what the statement itself asserts). There are exceptions (I am simplifying a bit) to this rule; one such exception is an ‘admission of a party opponent’, which is to say that a statement made by an opponent can generally be admitted (modulo some technical rules).

With the foregoing in mind, I would like to highlight just one thing from today’s ‘Statement’ from the adversaries (i.e., opponents): They admitted that a nation is a matter of “land” (i.e., soil) and “lineage” (i.e., blood) — historically and usually, of course, ordered as blood and soil.

This admission is usable against them going forward.

n.b., such an admission can also be used against those who ‘adopt’ it, which is to say, in this case, anyone who ‘signs’ it.
