Ralph Peters has a real knack for telling you it is
preferable to go to “A” instead of “B”, and telling you how to get there. But
when you follow him there, you find that he took you to B instead of A. And so
you realize that the poor thing suffers from a condition you may call spatial
deficiency syndrome.
You'll get to see this pitiful reality when you read the
article he wrote under the title: “The moral answer to North Korean threats:
Take them out!” It was published on September 4, 2017 in the New York Post.
The author uses almost the entire article to tell what the
end game (call it A) should be for America , and how to get there. And
he uses the last sentence to tell what choice (call it B) America must
avoid. Here is that sentence: “The greatest immorality would be for our country
to lose.” This will shock you because you'll easily determine that the article
could have been written by a Machiavellian demon bent on tricking America to walk
into a trap, and lose big time.
Peters does not hesitate to tell at the start what his
preference is: “Better a million dead North Koreans than a thousand dead
Americans.” The problem is that he is not telling this to you only; he is
telling it to the whole world. As a retired military man now writing for an
American publication, the image of a million dead North Koreans as being the
preferred alternative, is a mental picture that the world is bound to form
about the American military.
In fact, those who are most affected by his suggestion, such
as the South Koreans, the Japanese and others, have not 30 thousand soldiers in
the region as do the Americans, but 50 million South Korean civilians, and 120
million Japanese, all within range of North Korea's guns and missiles. What are
they to think of the Americans who think of them as expendable as the North
Koreans?
Believe it or not, Ralph Peters went on to thoughtlessly
cite America's obligations in this regard, thus telling these people what to
think about putting their own lives in danger to protect a thousand American
soldiers. What must be more asinine to these people is the knowledge that the
Americans would be better protected if they'll just go home to America and
stay there. Come to think of it; they too will be safer if the Americans
weren't in their neighborhood. In any case, here is how Peters expressed his
asinine and thoughtless idea: “The fundamental reason our government exists is
to protect our people and our territory. Everything else is a grace note”.
Translate this any way you want; it sounds like Ralph
Peters, speaking in the name of America, is saying that 170 million Asian lives
are but a single note; one that may be enchanting in itself, but a note that
remains dispensable when compared to the full blown symphony that is American
life. And the people of the Western Pacific are to conclude that America has
spread its military throughout their region not to protect them but to protect
its own people and territory. And this is why, regardless of what Peters says, they
cannot help but hear him say: continue to welcome America 's presence in your
neighborhood. Really?
Still, there remains a nagging question puzzling the
billions of humans who are alive today, and the billions more who will populate
the planet in the future. It is this: On what foundation, do Ralph Peters and
those like him construct a paradigm as fake as this? Here is Peters' answer to
that question: “When we're threatened with nuclear destruction by North Korea , a
military response is not unethical”.
Because North Korea
did nothing more than repeat the often used saying which goes: “we'll not be
the first to use nuclear weapons, but we'll use them if attacked,” how can
Peters and the others assert that North Korea
threatened America ?
Well, my friend, there is an answer to this question; one that must be told.
There came on this planet a people suffering from a disease
called Holocaust psychosis. Identifying themselves as Semitic Jews, they
believe that human beings are born antisemitic with a natural tendency to hurt
Jews. This makes the entire human race guilty by birth in their eyes.
These Jews came to America in droves some seven or
eight decades ago, adhering to a way of life that came to be known as the
Judeo-Yiddish culture. It was such a novelty in America that the novelty-loving
Americans took to it with enthusiasm, letting it color their own culture at
every level.
One of the Jewish traits to stick like glue to the American
culture was the tendency to believe that “if you're not with us, you're against
us.” With time, this attitude morphed into the tendency of seeing any foe
that's getting stronger as a foe that's preparing to annihilate America .
And this is why in the eyes of some Americans – such as
Ralph Peters and all those like him – North Korea
is threatening America
with destruction.
Because Peters is not a Jew, he does not suffer from
Holocaust psychosis but suffers from a related strain called spatial deficiency
syndrome.
