Chemistry is a good thing because it allows you to produce
pharmaceuticals that cure people. But chemistry is also bad because it allows
you to produce explosives that kill people and destroy property. We say that
chemistry is a double-edged sword ... one edge being good; the other bad. Alas,
the same thing can be said about nuclear energy and just about every scientific
discovery.
That principle also applies in fields outside of science.
For example, we trust some professions more than others because they do a great
deal of good. But it can also happen that we misplace our trust in a priest
that turns out to be a pedophile, or a firefighter that turns out to be a
pyromaniac. Because of this, such professions can be thought of as double-edged
swords.
The analogy does not stop here but extends to every social,
political and economic movement you can think of. For example, capitalism,
socialism and all the isms that come to mind do exhibit the properties of a
double-edged sword in that they are used for good by some, and used for ill by
others. However, one movement in particular has escaped much of the criticism
that should be leveled against it. It is called “democracy”.
To get a full sense of how democracy can be used for ill, we
need to connect an old event with a mode of thinking that is now beginning to
take roots. When it became clear that America
was going to be booted out of Vietnam
toward the end of the 1960s, two trends began to take shape simultaneously.
Ferocious North Vietnamese sappers were infiltrating the South and blowing up
such heavily guarded installations as American air bases. At the same time,
many of the South Vietnamese who collaborated with America
were fleeing Vietnam and
making their way to America .
Because the sappers were known to be commandos on a suicide
mission, and because the refugees coming to America
could be from the North and pretending to be from the South, some people raised
the fear – at first jokingly – that they might be sappers intending to go
sabotage America .
Or maybe they intended to engineer their own accidental death so that their
families get million-dollar settlements from America 's insurance companies.
Well, nothing like that happened, and the speculation turned out to be the work
of paranoid minds.
We connect those events with what's happening now, half a
century later. It is a fantastic story, parts of which are told in an editorial
that came under the title: “Justice over terror denied as PLO escapes verdict
of responsibility,” published on September 3, 2016 in the New York Daily News.
It is about an appeals panel that threw out a ruling handed down by a court of
first instance. The editors telling it set the stage this way: “The PA and the
PLO were found responsible for attacks that killed and maimed Americans in Israel – and
liable for $655 million”.
The editors of the Daily News are unhappy with that ruling,
thus end their presentation like this: “The ruling must go to the Supreme
Court, which cannot let it stand.” Think about it, my friend. More than 7,000
veterans in America
commit suicide each year because they are in pain or because they are
despondent they cannot provide for themselves or their families, if they have
one. Would a favorable ruling not tell these people to go to Palestine which is a war zone, and have
themselves killed or maimed there to get compensated handsomely?
And what about the youngsters who volunteer to go fight in Somalia or the Levant or Libya ? Would
they not be better off going there, not as potential soldiers to fight with
faction or the other, but go as tourists and have themselves killed or maimed,
thus be compensated with millions of American dollars?
The story of suicidal Vietnamese sappers seeking death in America turned
out to be a joke that did not materialize. But look what the editors of the
Daily News say happened in America
that became a big story: “The case was brought under the Act designed to give
American victims recourse in federal courts”.
Take note of that word “designed,” and never forget it
because most of what the Jews have been doing in America was design and
engineer concoctions that have turned the superpower into a bazaar of
screwed-up ideas – some of which may have worked previously and some of which
never did.
