Destroying America
Every day that passes brings yet another bizarre event occurring somewhere or another in the world to my attention. Each of these events is a little tiny revelation; like a Sherlock Holmes mystery, unraveling one hint at a time. Each event is a fragment of a much larger puzzle - what is really taking place in the world today.
I've been a "computer guy" for many years now. One of my specialties is debugging and troubleshooting. (I say "is" for the moment, since I'm in the process of being "outsourced" for the third time in my career and the active verb will be "was" in a month or so. In fact, this time around the company I work for isn't even trying to hide the fact - I'm writing this as I'm about to board the plane, on my way to India, to train the group of programmers there that will be replacing me after the first of the year. But that's an entirely different matter altogether, and my current personal woes aren't really relevant to the point I'm trying to make here.)
One ability that I have always seemed to have had, one that occasionally amazes my co-workers, is an ability to take an incomplete set of seemingly unrelated problems, troubles, and programmatic misbehaviors, and solve the underlying problem. Somehow - intuitively - and usually in a head-smacking, cartoon like "light-bulb above the head" moment, all the little unrelated hints, problems, and missing bits of information come together in something I can only call a sort of "mental fusion" that points out the root cause of the problem to me.
I had one of those moments today after reading yet another article bemoaning the fact that the MSM is all over the video of a Marine shooting a terrorist in Fallujah, but mention little and shows nothing about the beheading of Margaret Hassan, or the slaughter-houses found in that lovely city.
And I thought to myself, of course they wouldn't - as about three of those little "light bulbs" lit up in my head. [click] They wouldn't, because they are the propaganda wing of [click} the attack being made on America today [Click. Click! CLICK!!]
Now, I am not much of a writer, and I'm certain that it shows. I'm also don't subscribe, generally, to conspiracy theories (but I do think JFK wasn't killed by a lone gunman). But the light bulbs that lit up - and Lord, I certainly hope that I'm wrong - tell me that America, everything that she stands for, and our entire way of life, is under a worsening, sustained attack. Those little light bulbs tell me, and I haven't been able to fill in all the pieces of the puzzle yet, or put this entire rant together very logically yet, but here goes:
1.) America is under a direct, sustained attack, designed to destroy it and the American way of life. The Unites States can't be destroyed militarily, so it has to be torn down, bit by bit, slowly so that no one notices, and from the inside. The media is their propaganda arm.
2.) France is an enemy of America. By actually following through with an attack on Iraq and removing Saddam, we cut off tens-of-millions, if not hundreds-of-millions of dollars that were being siphoned off the food for oil program and into the pockets of French politicians. They appear to have gone fascist at this point - look for them to start requiring "registration" of Jews in the near future. Can you say "Auschwitz"?
3.) China is an enemy of America. They are in the process of completely destroying our manufacturing capabilities. We can't even make socks in this country anymore, much less machine equipment like lathes or mills. If "push ever came to shove", America would be hard pressed to ramp up their manufacturing to support a major war effort. Hell - we can't even make or refine steel in this country any more - we ship our iron ore to China to have it refined.
4.) Russia is not a friend of America. Same thing goes there as for France. We cut off millions of dollars of food-for-oil money, and it looks like they are going to be out billions of dollars worth of loans they made to Saddam.
5.) Given that a majority of the permanent members of the security council of the UN are composed of enemies of the US, the UN is an enemy of the United States by default. The amount of kickbacks and pay-offs in the food-for-oil scandal they've been involved in now seems to exceed 20 BILLION dollars. Time to stop funding this organization of criminals who are having their joke at our expense. We pay 75% of the regular budget of the UN - graft and corruption is just an extra bonus to them. Give the members 72 hours to leave the country, and tear the building down - let France build it themselves.
6) Illegal immigration is an enemy of America. Both parties are afraid to address the issue of illegal immigration, because they need the Hispanic vote to win elections. EXCUSE ME? The last time I looked, illegal meant exactly that, illegal, and doesn't (strike out) SHOULDN'T confer the right to vote. My best guess - there are probably about 20 MILLION illegal immigrants in this country today, and at least 10% of them voted in the last election. Voter fraud is a terrible problem in this country, and it will only get worse as time progresses.
Arizona voters took steps to solve the problem in their state - any bets as to whether or not some judge overrules the voters of the state? Arizona took steps in the right direction, but the government needs to follow through, or state quite clearly why they refuse. The INS needs to start enforcing the laws that are on the books - let's start again with the meat packing industry.
Not a citizen? The company that you are working for (and getting paid cash, no taxes withheld) is breaking the law. Who exactly is auditing these people, anyway, and how do they get away with cooking their books the way that they do? Illegal? No amnesty, no state issued ID - like drivers licenses, no taxpayer funded services, no voting. No ID? No vote. No citizenship? No ID.
The immigration problem is being allowed to happen, in fact I believe that it is being used as part of the attack on America.
7) George Soros is an enemy of America. Besides spending (and these are just the published numbers, the actual amounts are probably much larger) 29 million dollars funding leftist causes, candidates, and web sites that fuel hate, he is also funding an endless series of lawsuits designed to put gun manufacturers out of business, and pouring money into anti-gun lobbies. He'd like to see guns outlawed in America - one of the steps that the enemies of this country need to accomplish to be able to defeat it.
Those are a few of the light-bulbs that lit up for me. I haven't though these through, but these are some of the pieces of the puzzle and what they end up pointing to. I intend to write more on these subjects in the near future. I should have lots of time available to me soon, after being "outsourced". Here is something to think about:
How do you destroy a country that you can't defeat militarily, given that time is not an issue? Lets say you are patient and are willing to defeat it in, say, 50 years.
§ You attempt to undermine its will to fight with propaganda, take control of the media and as much communications infrastructure as possible.
§ You attempt to turn its friends and allies against it
§ You cut its supply lines
§ You destroy or subvert its manufacturing capabilities
§ You "dumb it down", wreck or take over its educational system, destroying its ability to produce engineering talent. Insert propaganda into curriculums and start it as early as possible. Best possible outcome, make certain that lower school students can't even read, and denounce any "grading systems" that might point out the fact as being unfair. Deride outstanding students as being show-offs, make certain that every student is reduced to the lowest possible common denominator.
§ You attempt to polarize it, and turn one side against the other.
§ You put place covert disruptive agents, with orders to work against the system using its own rules against it, subverting the system from the inside. Use tolerance as weakness. Subvert morals, religious institutions, educational institutions and attack any worthwhile organizations. Wherever possible, recruit insiders with high visibility.
§ You attack it economically, force it to exhaust its financial resources. Manipulate its currency to devalue it and its economic markets. If you have the resources, buy up its debt, with the intention of calling it due at the worst possible time to have the maximum negative impact. Be patient - accumulate 15 or twenty years worth for maximum effect.
§ You flood it with immigrants to dilute the culture and strain its services.

The Adventures of Chester: Zarqawi: Be very afraid . . .: "if you see 1000 Green Berets show up in Fallujah, the reason they will be there is their Arabic skills, only a few dozen will participate in the fight, and the rest will roll in during the aftermath for intelligence exploitation. One thousand is a TON of Green Berets though. A thousand would normally be employed over a very large area. You just don't mass those troops on the battlefield. But this campaign has seen stranger things . . ."
Holy Shit! I'll just make the comment that you wouldn't normally see 1000 Green Hats on the same continent, much less in the same country (outside of the U.S., of course). Either there is a massive manhunt about to start for OBL somewhere, or some serious ass-kicking is due to start in Fallujah...
