The eternal Quest to own the World or destroy it

Suppose you are a bona fide member of a club that comprises all kinds of people. You know some of them closely, some of them barely, and everyone else between closely and barely. Generally speaking, you mind your own business, except that you're witnessing a spectacle that's been unsettling you for some time now. And you wonder if you should keep quiet or bud-in and have your say.

The above is meant to serve as the basis for a metaphor reflecting the club of nations that make up all of humanity. Each individual that’s alive today, knows some of those nations closely, some of them barely, and everyone else between closely and barely. You are one such individual, and you feel unsettled whenever you see a Jew urge America to do the things you know will provoke what he says he's trying to avoid. What do you do?

Clifford D. May is a Jew that never stops telling America what to do, and was never proven to have given a good advice. If you want to know why he is always off the mark, you'll find the answer in his latest column. You'll discover that he begins every intellectual journey with a false premise, incapable of seeing things the way they are. Instead, his mind's eye is permanently fixated on a painting that was inculcated in him as a child; one that bears no resemblance to the real world. And Clifford May passes the same judgment on the same things no matter how much they change in real life.

His latest column came under the title: “The first two years of Trump,” published on January 1, 2019 in The Washington Times. Even though the stated purpose of the article is to review what President Donald Trump has done or failed to do in the two years he has occupied the Oval Office so far, you'll find that the article says more about Clifford May's worldview than that of Donald Trump.

The first thing that strikes you, is that Clifford May sees the world as being made of “enemies, adversaries and competitors,” all of them trying to make further advances in the world at a time when Donald Trump has decided to “withdraw 2,000 troops from the battlefield in Syria ... and pull half the 14,000 troops out of Afghanistan”.

Even though Clifford May has described Trump as being “mercurial, impulsive and too quick to cast modest progress as significant victories,” he took solace in Lindsey Graham's revelation that the President may be having second thoughts with regard to his Syria decision. And so, Clifford May expressed his delight by blaring the following six words: “Second thoughts can be productive thoughts”.

May has praised the National Security Strategy (NSS) document, recently delivered by Donald Trump, and proceeded to describe what he sees in it. In his view, the NSS recognizes Iran and North Korea as being rogue regimes. Recognizes Russia and China as being revisionist powers that “aim to shape a world antithetical to US values and interests.” And recognizes the reality that non-state jihadi groups can also pose a threat.

So then, how to fix a world that is plagued by so many challenges? Well, Clifford May, who is founder of the outfit he calls Foundation for the Defense of Democracies, wrote the following:

“A recent report prepared by the Foundation for Defense of Democracies estimates that Beijing is responsible for 50 percent to 80 percent of cross-border intellectual property theft worldwide, and more than 90 percent of cyber-enabled economic espionage in the United States”.

When you add this to what came in Donald Trump's National Security Strategy, Clifford May sees no alternative but to do the following:

“A long and low-intensity conflict utilizing all instruments of American power is not a pleasant prospect. But if we continue to let our enemies strengthen, eventually we will face a stark choice: A high-intensity conflict — with nuclear weapons targeting Americans — or allowing authoritarians to dominate a transformed world order”.

Do you know what this sounds like, my friend? Do you remember the old saying: All roads lead to Rome? Well, in this case: All manner of living with other human beings lead the Jews to the creation of low-level conflicts that boil over eventually and explode into high-level conflicts in which the world gets a bloody nose, and the Jews get close to being annihilated.

And so, I ask you again: If you are a bona fide member of a club that comprises all kinds of people, and you feel unsettled when seeing a Jew urge America to do the things you know will provoke what he says he's trying to avoid. What do you do?

I don't have to tell you what I'll do; you are reading it. The rest is up to you now. You have a brain, an inner voice, and the technology to communicate your ideas to the world at large. Summon the talent you possess, and use it to protect the only world we have … that is, protect it from the evil that never develops second thoughts about wishing to own it or destroy it.
