I think we have to understand that the people who run those organizations have a completely different world view that we do. Now that may seem very obvious, and unworthy of stating, but at the same time I’m not convinced people understand fully the ramifications of it.
During the Cold War, we saw the U.S.S.R. as evil. We saw ourselves as the good guys.
It wasn’t until the U.S.S.R. had fallen that I started seeing folks lament the idea there was only one super-power. This meant they felt the United States would not use it’s new “supremacy” wisely. They either simply feared us, or they vehemently disliked us.
The U.N. and the E.U. are led by people like this. Many people who live outside our borders feel comforted that the U.S. is the leader of the free world. Many others don’t see it that way.
Some folks see our anti-terrorist activity in the Middle East to be a good thing. Others simply see it as us trying to control the world. We even see folks on this forum who are convinced we are too controlling. They can’t grasp that allowing terrorism to thrive over there, will blossom into heavy terrorist activity elsewhere, unless there is direct almost constant active push-back.
It’s the price we pay for being the world’s police force. I know that very term will offend some folks. That’s okay. If they want to think something negative of me, I’ll accept it.
This world needs a strong force for good. In decades to come, we will see more Irans, North Koreas, and state sponsored areas of nuclear proliferation. We will see China expand it’s influence.
We will see why our leadership has been so special, and why another nation stepping in is so terribly misguided.
There are forces of evil out there, and even though I see evidence in our nation at times, we’re still light years ahead of what will replace us.
We battle for the planet folks. Every election we impact what our nation and the world will be like in ten, twenty, thirty, fifty years...
The election in Alabama the other day made it just that much harder for the forces of good to prevail here and globally.
We have to have our heads in the game folks.
We can’t afford to lose a single one of these contests.
By one vote, global dynamics change.
Look at the change President Trump has brought
WE just made it harder for Trump’s ideology to prevail.
We have enemies in our nation, that have lied to use for generations.
They just did it again, and some of our people suckered for it like they had no clue.
This one vote may hurt us globally, if Trump can’t get the support to push his agenda through.
Our team is at best confused.
Are people evil. Not always, but even good people can do serious harm.
A thoughtful post, thanks.
America really is the good nation of the world, which is why she is hated. The satan saw no bigger threat and therefore has sought to undermine and destroy by becoming her very political power and social change agent.
Satan, camped out in the top spot, as ‘leader of the free world’. It was all going along nicely with BO as the destroyer. America was *that* close to being finished off by Hillary, when it all went inexplicably wrong.
America the good - We the People, with the anti-tyranny spirit of the Founders
America the bad - the Establishment that is an alien spirit, determined to destroy from within
Fighting evil is good, but by that warcraft the military-industrial complex has its wealth.
It makes sense as an internal battle of good verses evil for the heart of the nation. Joseph ha-Tzaddik verses Esav ha-rasha.
Who is the rightful heir? Joseph. Joseph together with Judah (Israel) means evil is done for. It’s an ancient script playing out before our eyes.
The AL election is all part of the big picture that we can’t always see. The corrupt Establishment is already finished.
Purim x 10000, I can’t say that enough.
Israel saw the miracle of their Exodus from Egypt but then freaked out when the Red Sea was in front of them and the Egyptian army closing in from behind. The whole lead up with the plagues and then the miraculous egress should have told them not to be bothered by the ‘uncrossable’ water in front of them.
That’s where we are.
