SOCIALIST MODUS OPERANDI
Today the Socialists, and their many variant Statist Governments and movements, brings to mind the Van Morrison song (The Mystery) lyric, to wit:
"Trust what I say,
And do what you're told,
And surely all your dirt,
Will turn into gold."

Alpha and Omega, The Beginning and the End
First there is the fist and the tooth,
Then there is the stick and the stone,
Then there is the club and the ax,
Then there is the arrow and the sword,
Then there is the bullet and the bomb,
Then there is the biological agent and the chemical agent,
Then there is the energy of the universe let loose,
Then there is utter destruction and death,
Then there is barren land where life once was.

Mr., Madam President
IMHO, this could well be what the Dems will eventually implement as a 2024 election strategy. President Biden will resign claiming his health situation does not permit him to carry on with the demands of the office. So therefor, he will resign for the good of the country, of course. Kamala Harris will then be sworn in as President. After an amount of time, President Harris will resign claiming she is unable to execute the requirement of the office. This will allow her to be in the history books as the first female President. She will therefor resign for the good of the country, of course. Harris will resign before offering a candidate for Vice President thereby elevating Speaker McCarthy to the office of the President. Once McCarthy is President, his Presidency will destroy the campaign of Donald Trump for President. Establishment Republicans and never Trumpers will then rush to embrace McCarthy as the only candidate for the 2024 election thereby completing the destruction of the Trump candidacy. A magnificent way to have your enemy destroy their own kind for you. This validates the Chinese war tactic of "Use a borrowed sword to fight." This will also satisfy the ultimate goal of the Dems to keep Trump off of the ballot.
Because McCarthy is an establishment Republican, he will be subject to working with the Dems for the remaining term of the Presidency. This is an acceptable situation for the Dems and will be considered a win for the Dems. All of this then will allow the Dems to field a viable candidate for the 2024 election.
I'm just saying.

Climate Factoid
Our Sun is our life source. It is the power source that enables everything necessary for life on Mother Earth. And yet, the amount of the total sun's energy that reaches the surface of the Earth is but, 0.00000005%. Please consider the above number for what it represents when considering what truly powers climate on Mother Earth. This means that even the slightest change in the Sun's energy output or change in the Earth's orbit will have very significant climate effects. Man's ability to add to or subtract from the Sun's overwhelming power, as the primary source for Climate Change, is minuscule at best.

Russia today
For some perspective on today’s Russian situation, I suggest you read my previous post,
“Tyranny of the Minority “. Current expert wisdom is that the Wagner group with 25,000 battle hardened rough fighters with full military hardware at their disposal will be no match for the Russian Army and security forces.
Well, we shall see.

Grandmother
I thought I would share a story with you about my brother
and I, and our paternal Grandmother Elsie (1897-1973). Our Grandma was from
sturdy southern Indiana stock that was the essence of hard work, family and earned
respect. There is really no reason why I am sharing this story, other than you
might find it interesting in light of today’s new and improved culture.
On day my brother and I was enjoying a day with Grandma,
who was also a mother of six fully raised children, that she and Grandpa Ira fortified
with that hard scrabble southern Indiana way of life. We noticed Grandma was
worried and looking around like she had lost something. We asked what was
wrong, and she said nothing was wrong, but she couldn’t find her eyeglasses.
We immediately saw that her glasses were perched atop her head. Well, we
thought we would have fun with Grandma, and went scurrying around acting like we
were earnestly searching for her glasses, knowing that she was unaware that her
glasses were stored atop her head. Deciding to have fun with Grandma illustrates
the folly of youth of not thinking through the full implications of their
actions. However, some people never learn how to fully think through the
implications of their actions even though they have reached a ripe age of
adulthood.
The implications of having fun with Grandma, was of course, that she would discover her glasses atop her head and also discover that her snot nose grandsons were having fun at her expense. Big mistake boys. She thereupon ordered us to go out yonder to the peach tree and get a “switch” (a limber tree part) that was suitable for hard application around little boy’s legs with enough force to leave welts. Well, we went out to that peach tree to get the switch that would surely cause us pain because Granma ordered us to do so, and it never occurred to us to disobey Grandmother’s orders. One must wonder if today’s grandchildren would also be so obedience. Of course, we finally selected a switch that was small enough to not cause much pain. Another big mistake. Grandma then ordered us back to that peach tree to get a really big switch or she would use Grandpa’s big leather belt to do the job. Well, the pain and welts taught little boys that disrespecting their dear old Grandmother, and other deserving people, was not to be tolerated. And the lesson Grandma metered out to my brother, and I have endured over these many years since then. Here is a thought, one must wonder if today’s grandchildren and their parents would tolerate such behavior to teach a worthwhile lesson.
I’m just saying.

War, China style
The Art Of War
One of the most ancient Chinese writings is Taigong's Six Secret Teachings. In a chapter listed as "Civil Attack", the Emperor ask the question of the teaching Master, "How do you attack without military methods?" Master Taigong replies, "There are 12 ways." Examine Taiging's12 ways and make a judgement as to the modern Chinese Communists Party current course of action, as they relate to the 12 ways, on how to dominate the world and thus rule the world without military action.
1. "First, appeal to your enemy's preferences and follow his wishes." "He will become increasing proud and arrogant and do erroneous things.'
2. "Second, acquaint yourself with those who are close to your enemy in order to divide his power."
3. "Third, bribe your enemy's ministers and build a relationship with them."
4. "Forth, foster your enemy's indulgence and extravagance, encourage his lust and desire, bribe him with rare jewels, and gift him beautiful woman."
5. "Fifth, respect your enemy's loyal ministers and send them presents. Delay communication with his ambassadors and ignore their questions.
6. Sixth, "Bribe your enemy's favored ministers and keep the less favored at a distance."
7. Seventh, "If you want the enemy ruler to trust you blindly, you should offer him enormous gifts."
8. Eighth, "Bribe your enemy with treasure and persuade him to attack other countries."
9. Ninth, "Honor him with a glorious title and protect him from danger."
10. Tenth, "Pretend to be humble and obedient toward your enemy. Gain his trust and see how he is positioned."
11. Eleventh, "Block his access to information."
12. Twelfth, "Support your enemy's disloyal ministers to confuse his heart and mind."
After applying these 12 tactics, you can take military actions. When the omens from Heaven and Earth are right and all the auspicious signs are evident, you can attack him.
Well, what do you think? Examine the current CCP activities and see if these ancient teachings are being followed. Know your enemy.

WAR NUEVO
SOMEONE ONCE SAID, “WAR IS the last act of diplomacy”.
I invite you to reread the above quote
and consider what it
truly means. It very well could mean that all nations, and groups of people, are constantly engaged
in diplomacy as each nation
and interest group rightfully
attends to its self-interests within the world body, particularly in today’s modern and connected
world. This is so because nations and people nowadays cannot exist completely isolated from one
another in order to be a viable member of the connected world community.
So, if a nation
or a people cannot exist totally isolated from
other nations and peoples, diplomacy is the time honored and civilized way of finding
ways to cooperate with one another in such
a way that each nation and people will reasonably
address their self- interest and thus avoid using overt force to press
the issues. Of course, war is the final negotiating tactic that uses force to pressure
a reluctant party to accept terms that it
would not otherwise agree to without the use of overt force.
War is indeed the last act of diplomacy that can force a settlement that would not otherwise be forth-coming and can take many forms. War can be conducted
militarily, economically, politically, and as many other ways as the creative
human mind can conceive. For example, Nazi Germany came to believe that its people were the master race because “survival
of the fittest” had enabled
evolution to select them as the master race.
Needless to say, nations
and peoples of the world would not negotiate
in good faith about how they would become subservient to the master race so
Germany would be required to use more pervasive forms of diplomacy, namely war, to force acceptance of their self- interest. Because
Germany lacked the economic, intellectual, and political clout to force acceptance of its master race position,
military power was the only remaining
option available if it was to proceed
to subject the rest of the world to its master race position.
We all know how that Nazi Germany thing worked out in the end, and
indeed, Germany’s final negotiating position in its diplomacy war effort to subject the world to its
master race thing failed.
There is another
type of war becoming more common today due to being enabled by modern technology, global communications
and the surging “One World” political movement
by the intellectual cabal entrenched everywhere. This type of war is
not really new because it has been used
throughout human history with limited success, but nevertheless, it appears to
be enjoying new success, because of modern technology, in Man’s never-ending struggle
to dominate one another.
The
war I am referring to is
what I call the “Population” war. The Population War is fought by using the
masses of the world’s underprivileged populations, instead of armed troops, to
infiltrate the established Nation States in overwhelming numbers. Sort of a NUEVO
trojan horse operation if ever there was one.
The sustained
Population War keeps employing the movement of unlimited diverse peoples into
the individual Nation States population until the Nation States can no longer
sustain themselves. When this occurs, the Nation State ability to survive is in
question and One World Government is the only answer to this created crisis.
All in all, the classic political ploy of creating a crisis that only you can
resolve in order to advance your objective.
This war is currently being advanced
by the One World Cabal to use this war as the final act of diplomacy to
pressure the world to accept Global Governance. Global Government being the
ultimate goal of the One World Cabal of so-called intellectuals that want to
rule the world. Sounds familiar, doesn’t it? The Population War being the
diplomatic effort to force its negotiating position on the world at large, to wit:
All of the world peoples must become world citizens and not citizens of a particular
nation state and therefore become subject to world governance by the One World
Egg Heads.
The
Population War is indeed the Trojan Horse that enables the war to
be waged and is ongoing throughout the world at large. The local populations of Europe and
the United States are about to be overwhelmed by the masses of immigration by
the worlds peoples that undermines the very culture of each Nation State. When
your national culture is destroyed, your existence as a viable Nation is in
serious jeopardy. The stage is now set for the One World cabal to establish
World Governance.
To see how this type
of warfare has been successfully used in the past, one needs only to look at
modern China. China was successful in
using this type of war by sending
waves of Han Chinese immigrants into Tibet and now Tibet is
China. By all accounts, this Nuevo
Population War is a war that most of the world Nation States are not fighting because
they still don’t recognize that this is a war.
Most
nations and people are still trying
to establish negotiating positions within
their diplomacy to deal with their unauthorized mass immigration. This
diplomacy is misplaced because it has not yet identified the responsible party
to negotiate with. That is, the various Nation States have yet to become
engaged with the responsible party and not yet realized this is a Population
War being waged by the One World Cabal for the goal of World Governance.
Overcoming the
One World Cable is made all the more difficult because their very own
Governments are currently infiltrated with those who support the ideal of one
World Government. Indeed, the utter dismay of Nation States citizens to deal with this situation is because this war is being aided and abetted by the current
crop of Intelligentsia within Nation State Governments that secretly
welcomes the war
as a way to advance the “One World” Government agenda and to gain political advantage.
God, I hate war.
