DEVILS IN DETAILS

     Today, as many Americans were attending Church Services and applauding their 'allies' in the Israeli Government, the Israelis managed top their crimes in Gaza by targeting civilian infrastructure in Syria. They've also been threatening Lebanon, and the US still illegally occupies oil fields in Eastern Syria. The Pentagon has also been exporting military advisors to Armenia, on Syria's Northern border. It's fairly obvious after a heavy US diplomatic push in Israel that the Oligarchy intends to widen the conflict. Israeli control over Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria would clench access to the vast oil reserves off the Levantine Coast. Somehow, I imagine that little detail was overlooked by many. I'm afraid that, were I a man of the cloth, I might have mentioned that Israel has been destroying Christian schools, churches, and hospitals in Gaza, while Hezbollah recently destroyed communication centers used for Israel's vast network of surveillance software, and reminded everyone that by their fruits ye shall know them. 

   Of course, it could be argued that this is, after all, the Holy Land, and we can't have the Moslems ruling the region (despite them having run it for over a thousand years prior to the end of WW1). Somehow, one has a feeling that not too much indignation was expressed over the fact that both Tel Aviv and Jerusalem have a fairly high representation of our Rainbow-hued friends and that IDF troops guard and provide security for the pride events there, preventing any interference from pro-family protests. A whopping 25% of Tel Aviv's populace "identifies as gay;" however, that seems to be another minor detail that Conservative Christian commentators often seem to overlook.

   Another interesting story that seems to have been overlooked by the supposed Conservative Media were some remarks made by our Head-of-State after his return to the Beltway. Generally, Biden doesn't say much worth paying attention to, but it certainly seems amazing that certain remarks he made were passed over in silence by all our vigilant guardians of Liberty on the Right.

   “We were in a post-war period for 50 years where it worked pretty damn well, but that's sort of run out of steam. Sort of run out of steam. We need a new, New World Order in a sense,” Biden said. “So, I think we have an opportunity to do things, if we’re bold enough and have enough confidence in ourselves, to unite the world in ways that it never has been.” 

    One would think that certainly was clear enough; but it seems that the punditocracy on the Right is a little uncomfortable pointing out similarities between Biden and the Bushmen. It is becoming painfully obvious that the Republicans are planning a replay of the 2000 Elections, as we predicted here last Spring. We'll be told that "we can't win with Trumpism" and that we'll have to "hold our noses and vote in the Bush Machine." We'll be told that we can't survive another four years of Biden, and our only option for national salvation is a Republican. That the Bush Machine is just as beholden to the Great Reset as the DNC Machine is won't factor into the equation. The Bush Machine has a representative on the WEF Board of Trustees, just like the Clinton Machine has. 

    As further proof of this, the Conservative Media and politicians are already dredging up the old War on Terror propaganda as if to remind us all how much safer we all were under the Bush Surveillance State than under the Biden Security State. They've been referring to the uprising in Palestine as "Israel's 9/11" although the situations are not even remotely analogous. Thaddeus McCotter, a former Bush apparatchik in Congress until a particularly humiliating downfall and now a Bush apparatchik in the Media, even brought up a new Axis of Evil. Just as the previous axis had no connection to Al-Qaeda, none of the new ones have any connection to Hamas. They all are enemies of Wall Street and the Great Reset, however; and so must be demonized at all hazards. Nikki Haley, GOP presidential candidate and WEF Young Global Leader, even suggested that the Department of Defense become the "Department of Offense." The Swampy Pentagon is already an offensive place in more ways than one; but Nikki really wants it to stink.

    “We’ve got to be smart, and we’ve got to be ready,” Haley said. “I’m tired of talking about a ‘department of defense’. I want a ‘department of offense’. Every enemy needs to fear us.”

   This is what the Postmodern Right just doesn't seem to get: rule by fear is wholly incompatible with any kind of free society. As Thomas Jefferson said: "When a people fear the Government there is tyranny; when the Government fears the people, there is Liberty." The Second Bush Administration was one of the most tyrannical our Republic has seen, excluding the present Junta. As has been noted many times, the Biden/Harris Junta---like Obama's Administration---is executing its diabolical policies upon precedents set by the previous State of Perpetual Emergency. The only difference in approaches to the Great Reset that I can see is that the Democrats want us doped-up and weakened enough to fall into their system; while the Republicans want to impose it with whips and bayonets. 

   The real enemy isn't some imaginary Axis of Evil abroad: the real enemy is within. It starts with a public willing to sell itself into servitude for temporary security or personal advantage (mostly the latter). It ends with amoral and power-mad demagogues ready to assume control over our lives. 

   

CHRISTIAN CONSERVATIVES STAND UNITED IN SILENCE

     This week, just after an Israeli missile strike leveled a Baptist hospital in Gaza, the Regime followed up by dropping a bunker-buster bomb on the oldest Orthodox Church in Gaza. The numbers of casualties are high, but unknown since a lot of Christians are buried beneath the rubble and Israeli embargoes of electricity and  jabos strafing the relief workers has hindered rescue efforts. There hasn't been much commentary over any of this in the so-called Christian or Conservative media, other than to shift the blame onto the Arabs and double-down on unquestioning support for Israel. Republicans in the Senate passed by a unanimous vote with the Democrats a resolution backing the Junta's commitment to back Israel's aggression, and House GOP members (despite not having a Speaker) introduced the GAZA Act, which would prohibit Palestinian refugees from immigrating to the US---a measure which presumably includes Palestinian Christians. Israel, like the GOP's good buddies in Ukraine, have had a recent history of persecuting Christians; but I suppose the Christian Conservative attitude towards such things is that it's their own fault for not having been born in the US. 

     I suppose that silence from our side shouldn't be surprising. After all, we're talking about a segment of the population that recently met forced lockdowns of churches (several imposed by Republican governors) either by rolling over or encouraging them. We're talking about an 'opposition' which after five decades of complete inaction on legal abortion still can't muster more than a dozen or so Ruby-Red States to ban the procedure. Fewer than that still enforce Federal marijuana laws, and despite two-thirds of States having laws defining marriage as an exclusively heterosexual union---enough to ratify a Constitutional Amendment---not one Red State has challenged homo marriage. In fact, about a quarter of our Conservative leadership sided with the Democrats again to make homo 'marriage' an official national law. 

   After the 2nd Bush Administration invaded Iraq, the Provisional Government there begged for US protection of indigenous churches which were being attacked by extremists. Bush refused; although American missionary churches funded by Christian Conservatives who supported Bush got such protection. Every attempt from that time forward to give Christians an immigration status as victims of religious persecution has been blocked. Even Christians actually fleeing Soviet-style Regimes like Venezuela end up getting loaded on cattle-cars and dumped on freezing city streets by Republican Governors. Leftist States like California persecute Christian charities for not promoting abortion and homosexuality; Conservative States persecute Christian charities for helping other Christians escape persecution. There wasn't a lot of outcry from Conservative Christians over any of this either.

    Readers outside the US may have trouble understanding these apparent contradictions, but here it's fairly clear. Religion and Politics in the United States are not about traditions or values: they are commodities to be packaged, marketed, and sold. When massive amounts of cash are funneled into both from countries like Israel and Ukraine (while countries like Iran and Russia are prohibited from doing so), it's fairly obvious whose side the marketing shylocks are going to take. 

   Speaking for myself, I support a wholesale ban on all foreign lobbying. If these countries want a say in American politics, all they have to do is ratify the US Constitution and petition Congress for Statehood, like the rest of us did. Then they'd have two Senators and seats in House like everybody else---and actually be entitled to US Military protection. However, under our current system, it's much easier for Corporate Interests to launder money through these offshore sites, which gets shifted back to lobbying firms who hire marketing agencies to glorify these same leaders and portray them as defenders of the Common Man. It always comes down to the most cost-effective option with these people: fairness and justice, not so much.

   In this regard, there's really practically no effectual difference between Christian Conservatives and Secular Liberals. The packaging may be different, but that's as deep as it goes. 

    Such is the case, and such will continue to be so until the American public starts waking up to the fact that that there's no 'Red' or 'Blue' solution to any of these problems; no political messiah is coming to save them from themselves; and that our problem is a spiritual one. We've come to this point because selfishness, envy, and opportunism have been put before the principles that underlie a society of free men. Until that change happens, Christians abroad will go on being slaughtered, while we at home work harder for less, and the Oligarchy and their henchmen go on laughing all the way to the bank. 

THOSE OILY CHARACTERS AGAIN...

    So our nominal Head-of-State managed to do some photo-ops in the Middle East and Virtue-Signalled by pledging to transfer some more American wealth into the hands of his favorite NGOs under the guise of humanitarian aid for Gaza. The old hypocrite had hoped for an international summit, but the Egyptian and Palestinian Presidents, along with the Saudi and Jordanian monarchs, called his bluff and cancelled the meeting. 

   I was discussing the situation in the Middle East online with a Russian fellow who reminded me of something I'd forgotten about, though a decade ago it was one of the major backstories behind Obama and Hillary's skulduggery in the region. 

  In 2000, a major undersea oil field was discovered by British engineers on the East Mediterranean Coast, extending down from Syria, Lebanon, Israel, the Gaza Strip and the Egyptian Sinai Peninsula. Russia later concluded a series of treaties with those nations to begin development of the oil fields, completing the Gaza Marine I and Marine II derricks during the Obama years.

  Just coincidentally, about the same time, a series of color revolutions broke out in Egypt, Syria, Libya, and Lebanon. Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert just coincidentally, was implicated in a scandal and forced to resign. The color revolutions in Egypt and Syria failed; but the last Israel-Gaza Conflict broke out in 2014, just coincidentally under a previous Netanyahu term, 

   Frustrated after being thwarted in Syria, Obama sent the Pentagon to seize and occupy the oil fields in Eastern Syria, where they illegally remain to this day. President Trump ordered them to leave, but the Pentagon disregarded his order, and the Biden/Harris Junta recently even took the astonishing step of ordering naval personnel to serve on tankers transporting the stolen oil. The expropriated oil is worked in Syria by forced labor impressed by US troops, where it goes isn't exactly clear.

  With Saudi Arabia's recent moves to leave the Western orbit and align itself with the BRICS nations, suddenly these oil reserves off the Gaza Coast become important again. It's just such an astounding coincidence that Gaza suddenly became a world hotspot again, just as Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Egypt became BRICS members. What an amazing coincidence too, that the Israeli Prime Minister just happens to be deeply connected with the Boston Consulting Group, and its interests in the World Economic Forum (where companies such as BP, Exxon/Mobil, and Royal Dutch Shell are proud members). 

  It is quite odd---that with all of this supposed anti-Israel bias in the Corporate Media---that nobody seems to have noticed that control of a major oil field is in play along with who controls Gaza. It's a silence eerily reminiscent of the Kosovo Conflict, the post 9/11 War on Terror, or the Syrian Civil War: somehow discussion of which Corporate Interests might benefit from our Government's totally disinterested and humanitarian motives in intervening in these conflicts seemed never to be raised in polite discourse. 

  It's truly an amazing coincidence that all of these States of Emergency always seem to involve geopolitical areas with vast undeveloped resources. It's also quite amazing that we citizens of the West are always called upon to sacrifice our own resources and civil liberties, but somehow the profit-margins and political influence of these Supranational Conglomerates and Banks all seem to fatten substantially during and after these crises. Our political leadership, too, which can't come to a consensus on how address things like mass poverty and failing infrastructure puts aside its differences and sings the same tune, albeit in different tempos.

  

     Janet Yellen, the Junta's Finance Minister---who made millions advising WEF Top 100 Strategic Partners CitiBank, Goldman-Sachs, Google, UBS, Barclays, Credit Suisse, and Salesforce---says that we all need to work harder and sacrifice more, to defend our freedoms, of course: not to transfer more wealth into the hands of Wall Street like these conspiracy kooks might imagine. What passes for a political opposition in the United States only disagrees with the Junta to the extent that it considers them to be too moderate. In Britain, what passes for an opposition there is calling upon bonny King Chuck and his puppet Prime Minister to follow Israel's example and establish a one-party state. France and Germany have already banned pro-Palestinian protests. 

    Again: one has to wonder exactly what the compelling national interest for such extraordinary measures and statements would be over a country the size of New Jersey 6,000 miles away fighting over a territory smaller than many US counties? True, during the Cold War, Israel served a strategic purpose for the United States, and even today seems to be quite capable of defending itself. Outside of North Korea, Israel is probably one of the most heavily militarized and fortified countries in the world. So what exactly is our interest there?

    The answer is that we, that is, the American People have no interests there. Supranational Corporations and the Deep States they control have considerable interest there, however. Like nearly every intervention and manufactured 'crisis' we've endured since the first Bush Administration, wealth transfers, seizure of foreign resources, and consolidating political powers are the only actually motives, no matter how the Official Narratives and Official Counter-Narratives are played by the compliant Media and hired 'experts.' 

    

WATCH THE SKIES

       Tomorrow, the nominal Head of the United States Government is travelling to Tel Aviv, allegedly for a high-level meeting with his counterparts in the Israeli Deep State. I left a comment at Bunkerville's site this morning, which I think deserves more than a passing consideration in light of several circumstances:

   "In Europe, we’re starting to see Scamdemic-levels of crackdowns on dissent. In the US, the media jackals and both political establishments are pushing the same pro-Israel narrative. The Deep State is moving a substantial military force to the Palestinian Coast. We have an ‘election’ coming in 2024, Biden is increasingly seen as a political liability and the Oligarchs had considerable success in 2020 with a phony ‘State of Emergency.’ Thanks to GOP squabbling, there’s no third-in-line of presidential succession in the House Speakership.

    "Now, unlike the usual secretive security protocols they usually take, the Deep State is brazenly advertising that Biden is about to make a trip to a war-zone where guerrilla warfare is going on and missiles are being thrown all around; Tel Aviv was under a rocket attack just yesterday that nearly picked off Blinken.

   "Does anyone else see a perfect situation for a False Flag brewing here?"

   Before the Rent-a-Skeptics on the Left and the Pro-War reactionaries on the Right start chiming in, consider that:

   1. If nothing happens despite these suspicious circumstances, it doesn't matter.

   2. If something happens, readers will be forewarned.

   3. The majority is just going to hoot it down anyway, right or wrong. 

   One has to admit that the circumstances surrounding this trip have a serious potential for a problematic outcome. While it's true that both Bush and Obama visited sites like Iraq and Afghanistan, those trips were kept secret from the public until they actually happened---and even then they visited areas already under US Military control. In contrast, Biden's trip has been widely publicized and will occur in a small geographic area well within range of attack at any point. Today's atrocity perpetrated by the Israeli butchers is already inflaming the Resistance and its allies to the point of retaliatory action. If LBJ had proposed visiting South Vietnam during the Tet Offensive, nobody in their right mind would have approved it. Yet, that would have been a more analogous situation to Biden's visit than Bush's or Obama's.

   The second thing that we need to consider is that the current Regime has demonstrated repeatedly that it is capable of anything and has a complete disregard for human lives or human rights. When dealing with megalomaniacs and fanatics, assuming a worst case scenario isn't paranoia: it's prudent. We should do the prudent thing and be very watchful this upcoming week.

    

WHEREIN LIES THE THREAT-POINT

     In the Spring of 2016, when this site was first established, one of the assertions that we made was that Western Neoliberalism and the influence of religious cults were the two greatest contemporary threats to Western Civilization. This still holds true, although seven years ago, the main representatives of these threats were the Obama Administration and his Neocon Congress promoting the first, and the Wahhabi Cult in the forms of ISIS and Al-Qaeda representing the other. The political shake-up under Trump and ISIS' defeat has caused a regrouping of sorts, which was introduced in 2020 as the Great Reset: with the orchestrated chaos of that year leading to a greater consolidation of power among those interests aspiring to a New World Order. 

   It's very important in light of the current situation in Israel that we don't lose sight of the dangerous influence of cults and their involvement in the ongoing coup d'etat against Western Civilization. It must be understood that Mankind has an innate drive to seek spiritual union with his Creator; and religions are the conduit through which he does this. In the breakdown of religious traditions, that tendency still exists: witness how every totalitarian government since the French Revolution has adopted dogmas, rituals, messianism, priestcraft---and inquisitions---around their government. 

     Atheistic Materialism, which is the driving force behind the Great Reset ideology is no different in this regard. The Technofascist sociopolitical wing has at its back the quasi-religious belief in Scientism. The reason that cults and powerful cult leaders hold such sway over these types is twofold. One is that human instinct is essentially religious, and all mystics fascinate these kinds of people no matter how rational, intellectual, or sophisticated they claim to be. The second is that cult leaders also are authoritarian and desire global domination; the only real difference between the Atheist and the Cultist is that one puts himself in God's place; the other pretends to put himself in God's place. It's like the relationship in dysfunctional families where everyone involved is bound together by their mutual subconscious hatreds. 

   This is what differentiates Traditional Religions from cults. The ultimate goal of Religions is to unite Mankind in what they see as the Image of God by leading through example and exhortation. Granted, they haven't always followed that path consistently, but usually there are reformations from within that set them right again. Cults, on the other, are held together by personal despotism and employ fraud and force to secure worldly power. There are secular cults too like Scientology and Satanism; others are offshoots of traditional faiths. Christians have the Rainbow Churchians, Mormonism, the Moonies, and the loosely-organized Red Pills; Moslems have the Wahhabis, Salafists, and those 'Rainbow Jihadi' kooks who follow the likes of Aga Khan. Buddhism has despotic sects like Lamaism and many corrupt cultists in the West such as the Bagwhan Sri Ragneesh was a few years ago.

   Cults also tend to take on political aspects. Scientologists and Satanists are well-represented in places like our Media and the Pentagon. The Mormons and the Moonies have a significant media and corporate presence, and have wormed their ways into several government agencies: especially at the UN. They're a vital component in the operation of globalist Deep State interests in South Korea and Japan. The Dalai Lama is a spiritual advisor to a great many Oligarchs, among them former Vice-President and current WEF Trustee, Al Gore. The Aga Khan has a similar influence over Britain's King Chuck and Canadian strongman Justin Trudeau. In fact, when one looks over the membership of the WEF Board of Trustees and their influential members, it's striking how many of them have spiritual advisors and gurus in their inner circles. They even have a guru on their Board: a man with no political or commercial experience but is regarded by many as an enlightened sage. Given the number of new-age and rainbow-religionists at the WEF, one might be inclined to suspect that---like everything else---they consider spirituality another of their private domains; and that the atheist materialism they promote is only for the masses. 

    Now the Jews are not immune from the problem of cults either. In New Testament times, the Jews were divided as well. The Pharisees represented the mainstream, though their leadership had become corrupt and distant from the people. The Essenes were essentially social drop-outs and eschewed marriage and social interaction, much like many of the 'Red Pills' of today's Manosphere. The Zealots (literally, the Fanatics) were militant Jewish nationalists. The intellectual class of the ancient Jews were divided between the Sadducees who materialists and part of what we call 'the Establishment' of the day; and the Hellenists, who were syncretic and sought to align Jewish tradition with Greek philosophy. Eventually, the Pharisees reformed and became the Orthodox Jew of today, the Essenes disappeared, and the Hellenists mostly embraced (and led) Christianity. There have been trends from the other two as well: the Sadducees have found their reincarnation in Liberal Judaism and Zealots ultimately became the modern Zionists. 

    It's important to note this, because in the West there is a tendency to see 'all Jews' as a monolith---much like Moslems are portrayed by our Media. This leads to two dangerous tendencies: one is to blame all of the crimes committed by certain Jews on Judaism as whole, which is Antisemitism. The equally dangerous tendency, especially among many Western Protestants, is equating Israel of today with its position in the Old Testament. This leads to blind support for the Israeli Regime regardless of whatever acts it commits. 

   Zionism is basically a cult, and is despised by many Orthodox and Liberal Jews---both of which have suffered persecution of various degrees by the Israeli Government. The closest analogy to Zionism among American cults probably would be the Mormons, who were founded upon similar ideals drawn from the same sources: a perversion of Old Testament eschatology. Both are a crude system of utopian nationalism founded upon a belief in themselves as a Chosen People. If either actually read the Old Testament, they would see that being a Chosen People didn't spare them the consequences of defying God's Will and behaving arrogantly and oppressing their fellow-man. 

   Zionism could never have succeeded as imposture of this magnitude had not been propagated with a fanaticism worthy of a better cause, and risen during a historical period when Jews had universal sympathy as victims of other repressive regimes. Even so, it never made many converts outside of the most remote and unenlightened regions of the Jewish Diaspora; and even then it could only secure the most debased and ignorant members of the community. The brutishness and repulsiveness of the system, and the crimes of which the Zionists have displayed before the whole world, otherwise could not have had an existence and a following remarkable for nothing but its Militarism and ability to buy influence abroad. As a movement, it has always been upheld and sustained by fear bordering on Paranoia: fear of Islam, fear of future antisemitic persecutions, misreadings of Biblical apocalypses, etc. Postmodern Zionism has never had any support from the more educated Jews. As a philosophy, it was conceived under some the coarsest outrages upon human credulity, and depends upon ignorance of its motives and state-sponsored terror for its survival. Today, the movement has become essentially another holding-company for Western Corporate interests in the Middle East, and governs the nation of Israel as a Corporate-Fascist despotism.

    This is what the Western Corporate Media would rather the public not see nor consider. The Conservative Media in particular portrays the Israeli State as a bulwark against the spread of Radical Islam. In reality, the Israeli State is the vanguard of the Great Reset/NWO interests in the Middle East. The Color Revolutions in Syria and Turkey having been foiled, and the mass-revulsion throughout the Islamic world against Neoliberal Cultural Imperialism has caused the Oligarchy to revert back to its earlier War on Terror narratives to cultivate support for subduing the Islamic world by force. Many of the Oligarchy's former allies in the region have woken up to the fact that the New World Order doesn't include them: and the Israeli Government's Final Solution to the Palestinian Question has laid bare the Oligarchy's obvious intentions. 

   

   

GAZA BURNS WHILE EFFETE AMERICA LOAFS

   It's early Saturday Morning out here on the US West Coast; and by the time most of the readers see this article, the estimated 2.2 million inhabitants of the open-air prison colony called the Gaza Strip will have exhausted their remaining supplies of food, fuel, water, and medicines. They have been now without electricity for about three days. The Israeli Regime has firebombed, bombarded the colony with heavy artillery, strafed civilians in the streets, and imposed a mandatory evacuation order for the North part of the colony, despite there being nowhere for the refugees to go. Such people who have attempted to leave have been dive-bombed by Israeli jabos and drones. 

   There have been protests abroad, though Scamdemic-level crackdowns are starting to appear. EU President and WEF Board of Trustee member Ursula von der Leyen unilaterally put the Bloc on notice that it backs the Netanyahu Regime and would tolerate no dissent. The French Head-of-State, WEF Young Global Leader Emmanuel Macron also---without bothering to consult the French Legislature---declared support for the Palestinians an anti-Semitic hate crime, and turned his goon squads loose on protesters. In Paris, a schoolteacher was stabbed under very unclear circumstances, but the Macron Regime announced that the suspect was a "Jihadist of Russian nationality" (how convenient); and used the incident as a pretext to elevate France to its highest security alert level. 

   In the UK, King Chuck and his sock-puppet Rishi Sunak have suggested doing the same things.  There have been escalating calls in the US to return to post-9/11 and Scamdemic tyranny here as well. The Tech Lords have begun moving to shut down dissent from the Official Narrative and the Media is wholly supportive of Israeli atrocities. 

  What passes for political opposition in the US---the Republican Party---only differs from the Junta in that it's calling for a even more hard-line policy favoring Wall Street interests in the Middle East Israel. The GOP really has descended to the level of a national embarrassment. The Republicans control the House of Representatives and haven't agreed on a Speaker since January. Their leader in the Senate is an octogenarian degenerate who goes into a catatonic stupor every other time he tries to make a speech. Of their presidential candidates, two are under indictment and two others are WEF Young Global Leaders. They've done absolutely nothing to address obvious voter fraud in 2018, 2020, and 2022 yet fantasize that they'll return to power in a Red Wave next year, although they haven't laid out a single objective for what they would do if that should happen. At this point, the Republicans have become completely irrelevant, and I've no doubt that they would wholeheartedly support a nationwide crackdown like we're seeing in Europe; just like they did during the Scamdemic. 

   Within the Ruling Party, there has been a noticeable marginalizing of the so-called 'Progressive', pro-Palestinian wing among the Democrats. Bernie Sanders, AOC, and Ilhan Omar aren't turning up in the MSM newsfeeds with the fawning praise they are accustomed to receiving. They're still floating around on some of the alternative Left-Wing sites, but the Corporate Media seems highly uninterested in their takes on the situation in Gaza. 

   Otherwise, here in the Prozac Nation, those declining few who have money to invest are laying down investments in defense and national security stocks. The rest of the public are stocking up at the local head-shops and preparing for the Big Show on national TV.

   Imagine what a national LARP we could have---along with a surging Stock Market---if somebody actually drops the Bomb! And don't forget that the annual Pride holiday of Halloween is coming up! Show your support and get your tickets now, or watch live on Pay-Per-View!

  This fairly well sums up the level we've sunk to as a culture. Decades of embracing American Exceptionalism has sunk Israeli Culture even further; and their current situation: an overtly totalitarian regime engaging in genocide and ethnic cleansing is where ours is headed if Americans don't recover their senses---and soon. It's probably already too late for us; which is why those of us who still want to be free need to disconnect from the Mainstream as much as possible. Endless wars and manufactured crises are the Oligarchy's biggest weapons in their Strategy of Tension; and we need to avoid being caught up in it.

  That doesn't mean, of course, that we should take an attitude of indifference to the humanitarian disaster in Gaza or the desperate fight to liberate Israel from its Deep State tyranny. We should however ignore the political and commercial exploitation of the situation, stay well-informed, and help where we can. 

  

THE ENEMY IS WITHIN

     When Pat Buchanan was running for US President as an Independent, he stated that he was doing so because there was no Party which represented actual Conservatism. He was proven right with the GOP coronation of George Bush Jr. that year, and made a similar statement before his recent retirement. The Neoliberalism of the Clintons; the Neoconservatism of the Bushmen; the fusion of Corporate America and Big Government firmly entrenched what we call the Deep State into power and erected a new concept referred to as Inverted Totalitarianism. Since the US Regime Change in 2020, the Deep State has been moving inexorably closer to the next phase of total subjugation of the global populace, The Great Reset, or, as it is its known to its supporters, The Fourth Industrial Revolution. 

    The leaders of the Great Reset employ many of the same tactics which were effective for them previously, such as Managed Democracy, or, as the Dead White Male who tried to warn us of these impending trends stated:

   "That the patriotic citizen unswervingly supports the military and its huge budget means that conservatives have succeeded in persuading the public that the military is distinct from government. Thus the most substantial element of state power is removed from public debate. Similarly in his new status as imperial citizen, the believer remains contemptuous of bureaucracy yet does not hesitate to obey the directives issued by the Department of Homeland Security, the largest and most intrusive governmental department in the history of the nation. Identification with militarism and patriotism, along with the images of American might projected by the media, serves to make the individual citizen feel stronger, thereby compensating for the feelings of weakness visited by the economy upon an overworked, exhausted, and insecure labor force. For its antipolitics, Inverted Totalitarianism requires believers, patriots, and nonunion 'guest workers.'”

   Those were the words of an actual scholar and intellectual: today we have poseurs posing as great geniuses when, in reality, they are a collection of Mental Midgets drawn from a badly compromised Academic Establishment. In a nation where ignorance and illiteracy are cultivated, it requires little effort to pose as one of the Intelligentsia, provided that one promotes the position required by one's moneyed patrons. 

   Both so-called Liberals and so-called Conservatives employ these types of people; while they debate about the details, they agree upon the overall agenda. On the current situation in the Middle East, for example, the so-called Liberals tell us that Trump's policies caused the problem, so they have to send Carrier Groups and weapons to shore up the Israeli Regime. So-called Conservatives tell us that it's all Biden's fault for not sending Carrier Groups and weapons before to prop up the Israeli Regime. Whether the Israeli Regime should be propped up or not, is a Third Rail Topic; and anyone asking that question is immediately labelled either a tin-foil hat Conspiracy Theorist, an extremist (Left- or Right-Wing depends upon who's accusing): it's simply a matter not open for discussion or debate. 

   Victor Davis Hanson, who likes posing as an Intellectual on the Right, is clutching his bow-tie again, this time because some of his fellow dorks on the Academic Left are expressing knee-jerk support for the Palestinians just like his Neocon side is reflexively supporting Israel. Hanson routinely gives the impression in his writings that out-of-touch Leftist ideologies in our schools is a phenomenon which just began in 2021. One would think that with all the time he's spent hanging around Stanford and Berkeley country-clubs over the last two decades, he might have noticed that this takeover happened a long time ago, but apparently not.

    We're not going to expend much effort attempting to unravel all of the incredibly disingenuous points Hanson asserts throughout his piece. After turning a blind eye to Israeli persecution of Christians, forced Vaxx policies, suppression of dissent, ethnic cleansing against the Arab population, and illegal military operations against Syria and Lebanon for the past three years---and now assisting the genocide in Gaza with a naval blockade---it is beyond ridiculous to pretend that somehow the Biden/Harris Junta, as Hanson claims "had announced overtly that it was rabidly anti-Israel, it would be hard to imagine anything it could have done differently from its present nihilist behavior."

    Hanson's utter depravity and mendacity can be seen from his concluding sentence alone: "And our enemies dream of doing to us what we just saw in Israel." No, you moron: our enemies dream of doing to us what they have been doing in Israel. That is because our enemies---the enemies of freedom and humanity--- are the interests running their government and are the same ones running ours. 

    Israel just announced the formation of a One-Party State (true, they, like us, have had a de facto one for years, but now it's official). They've instituted a lockdown of the entire West Bank (i.e. declared Martial Law). Doesn't that sound a bit like what our Oligarchy has planned for our futures? Or just contemporary Israeli policies: cracking down on traditional faiths, imposing internal passports and censorship, expanded domestic espionage, engaging in ethnic cleansing and population control of 'undesirables,' promoting the Homo Agenda; expanding Executive powers at the expense of the Legislature and Judiciary; corporate/state homogenization---what do our real enemies want to do to us, Vic? 

   This isn't all going to change magically by voting in the Controlled Opposition (as if this were even a possibility). The RNC is just as much on the hook to vested Corporate interests as the DNC or the Israeli 'Likud' Party is. At the bottom of all of this, of course, is that our Deep State covets Middle Eastern oil reserves, and Iran is the scapegoat for everything they object to, because the Islamic Republic rejects all of this New World Order tyranny and won't bow to the smug supermen in supranational global commerce.

  The establishment of an Islamic State in Israel may not be a world model for Democracy, but it would be an improvement over what they have: that is a fact whether it is Politically Correct to say so or not. Scapegoating Iran for our national problems is a sick joke---even more ridiculous than the continual finger-pointing at Russia and China since we haven't even had diplomatic or trade relations with Iran in 44 years. 

   Iran isn't flooding the US with fentanyl and causing six-figure casualties each year. Iran isn't responsible for declining life expectancy and fertility rates. Iran isn't causing runaway inflation, mass poverty, and unemployment by imposing fake crises on the American people and engineering mass wealth-transfers. Iran doesn't dominate our depraved Media culture, they aren't imposing the homo agenda on our children; they aren't dumbing-down our schools; the tent-cities and violent crimes in our cities aren't being carried out by Iranian operatives. Our infrastructure isn't collapsing because Iranian terrorists are coming over here destroying it. In fact, Iran has few or none of the problems listed above in their own country: which should give all of the idolaters of the Pax Americana like Hanson some pause for thought.

   They ought also to reflect that for three decades now, the Beltway Establishment has been exporting its exceptionalism into the Middle East. What have been the results? Israel---the country most under our influence---has gone full-tilt into NWO Fascism. In Iraq, the violent crime and addiction rates have gone up while fertility and literacy rates have dropped since Junior invaded in 2003. Twenty years in Afghanistan made no significant improvements in the country and the Afghans were all-too-willing to see us leave. Somalia and Libya turned into complete anarchistic chaos. Saudi Arabia became so exasperated with US arrogance and cultural imperialism that they abandoned the Petrodollar and joined the BRICS. US-trained and equipped armies actually were defeated in Syria and Yemen. Mali and Niger ejected US military advisors and kicked out our NGOs. Turkey, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar are trying to get out from under the American thumb as fast as they reasonably can. This has only been happening since 2021? 

   Pundits like these are simply distracting us from the real issue: that the Postmodern Managed Democracy has failed; both in our own country and everywhere else it's imposed or adopted. It's failing in Israel, and the Regime there is proving to everyone---like the Canadians did in 2022---that it can only be sustained at the point of a bayonet. Even in the apathetic, drugged-out US, the specter of the Surveillance State and a quasi-legal Cancel Culture looms in the background of the degenerate superficiality of our way of life. 

   Unfortunately, with the stranglehold that wealthy business interests have over the RNC; and the Neocons' immersion in the Deep State and control over the official counter-narrative, no one is going to bring their abject failures to public attention. The Republican Party---and the Conservative Movement in general---has no future until it repudiates Neoconservatism and pledges to revoke and repeal many of the very policies they once endorsed. Unless that happens, Israel's present will resemble our immediate future---though not in the way Hanson and his ilk mean it. Martial law, lockdowns, a One-Party Police State, ethnic cleansing, and sociopolitical Apartheid will be the New Normal no matter which faction the Oligarchy chooses to govern.
