It is Time for America to sit pretty

It would be misleading to say that the world is moving again without specifying that it never stopped but that it is now moving at a tempo faster than before. It must also be said that the world does this once in a while because the situation in which it finds itself at any moment can be thought of as a stream of water that moves at a normal flow till it reaches a narrow passage where it is forced to move at a faster tempo.

Now think of that stream as being not of water but of events that – looked at from hindsight – make up what is called history. For a long time, more in Britain than anywhere else, they thought of history as being a stream of events stitched together by the royal family such as the birth, antics and marital status of every prince and princess in the palace and the entourage. But who today remembers any of that, or would be interested to learn about it unless the stories are turned into entertaining pieces of historical fiction that people can watch on television while eating popcorn?

What the people who are alive today remember, however, are the big movements that have impacted large numbers of now dead people such as those that lived during the French, American and Russian revolutions; the Chinese cultural revolution; the Renaissance, the Reformation and the religious wars of Europe; the civil wars in America, Russia and all the other minor places. And what is happening today across what used to be called the old world is a change of such dimension, it is bound to leave a huge mark on history.

So the question: What has been America's previous role in this world? What should it be in the future?

Up to the last few decades of the Nineteenth Century, the history of America had been that of former colonies minding their own business, trying to free themselves of the vestiges of British tyranny, and trying to forge a nation that sits on top of an economy based on industry, not on slavery or the looting of the indigenous inhabitants that have lived on the land since time immemorial.

Then turmoil began to happen in Europe between the ethnic groups from among whom large numbers had emigrated to America where they found themselves living in a nation that was growing stronger and self-assured. And when the European turmoil turned into wars, the groups in America began to pressure their adopted country to join the side in Europe from which they had come. America did that, and found itself lucky enough to be on the winning side at the end of each conflict in which it participated. This history and a few other developments helped America reign for a time as the sole earthly superpower.

Now America finds itself at a turning point where it can no longer rely on the weakness of others to gain strength or to maintain superiority in many of the fields where it was number one. But despite all of this, the ethnic groups that make up its current population are agitating to have their government do one thing or another that will help this group or that one. Unlike previous the century, the focus this time is not on Europe but on the rest of the world with special emphasis on the Middle East and Asia.

The trouble, however, is that the most vociferous group in America today has an agenda that cannot be revealed because if this happened, the American population itself will want to bury the group before anything else. This would be the Jewish group that wants America to destroy the nations of the Middle East to make Israel the sole power in the region, and wants America to soften the rest of the world to make it ready for Jewish domination.

And this is exactly the recipe that will set the stage for burying America in the Middle East and Asia. This would happen because those nations know exactly where the Jews are leading America, and they are prepared for whatever the Jews will throw at them. This is the reality of the situation while the American leaders, especially those in the congress, have no clue where they are being led … or if they do, worry little about it as long as the Jews pay them off with money they accumulate from gambling and other such pursuits.

What is happening in that part of the world is that powerful forces have been unleashed, and they are making real history. While the Twentieth Century was kind to America because it was urged to make moral choices, things are different this time because the losers of history are the ones urging it to make demonic choices. And America is on the road to becoming the biggest loser of all … unless it listens to reason.

Sit pretty, America and let the events play themselves out or you'll fall on your face ugly. Sit pretty or fall ugly.
