A good Time for America to do a one-eighty

Suppose your name is America. You live in a nice house with a car in the garage and a pickup truck in the driveway. A strange man knocks at your door and says his car broke down on the highway near here.

He says he put all his belongings in the trailer, which he wants to hitch to your truck, and take it to a town straight ahead. You agree to help. You get into your truck, he sits beside you, and you drive to the abandoned trailer on the highway. You see no car, so you ask how the trailer got to be here without a car to pull it. He says the car broke down two miles back, a good Samaritan pulled the trailer up to this point, then made a right turn to go home down that road.

You attach the trailer to the truck, you both get into the truck, and before you start the engine, he mugs you unconscious with a hammer and drives away with his trailer hitched to your truck. Minutes later you regain consciousness. You quickly grab a can of mace you were keeping in the glove compartment and spray his face with it. He faints, you tie-up his hands and feet, and drive back.

What you did, driving back, is a one-eighty. Was it the right decision to make or was it a mistake? Should you have taken the man to his destination, or was it proper to return to your town and hand him to the police?

These are the questions confronting America's rulers today. Pushing America to commit the genocidal act of depriving the Iranian people of the necessities of life at a time like this, says that the Jewish establishment is not a fellow traveler with America, it is the mugger that hitched the miserable existence of the Jews to America's destiny. The Jews then sat in the driver's seat and took control of America's future.

What America must do now is a one-eighty. That is, it must reverse course, and head back to where it was before the Jews took it on the road to self-destruct. Before the COVID-19 pandemic, the world had already embarked on a paradigm that relegated America's influence in the world to a lower level than it was. Now that the Jewish establishment has flashed its true colors, America finds itself holding hands with it, sitting on a slippery slope and sliding down the spiral of irrelevance to the gates of oblivion.

To recapture some of its old glory, America must know it cannot do it by hanging on to the Jewish disease of antagonizing everyone it meets. This was the truth that America ignored before the pandemic, and it is the truth today. In fact, two recent articles address this reality, each in its own way.

One article came under the title: “Don't Bank on a Quick Economic Recovery,” and the subtitle: “America won't be able to pull itself out of the coming recession easily, and we can't do it alone.” It was written by Desmond Lachman, and published on April 3, 2020 in The Bulwark. The other article came under the title: “Time for the US to declare independence from China,” written by Anthony Vinci and Nadia Schadlow, and published on April 5, 2020 in the Washington Examiner.

Here is a condensed version of the way that Desmond Lachman started his discussion:

“In formulating an economic policy response to the coronavirus epidemic, it is important that the US policymakers not delude themselves into thinking that everything will go back to normal as soon as the curve is sufficiently flattened. And they must acknowledge that the global scope of this crisis requires a coordinated global response”.

Thus, Desmond Lachman has made it clear to America's policymakers that they can no longer take charge of the country, go it alone and hope to make it. He is of the opinion that America must cooperate with the others to save itself and save the world … the way that everyone else is preparing to do.

Whereas Desmond Lachman told America that cooperation with the world was the way to go, Anthony Vinci and Nadia Schadlow took it upon themselves to define what a healthy cooperation entails. They articulated their point of view in the preamble of their piece. Here, in condensed form, is what they say:

“Americans know now they cannot rely on China or our allies to produce the goods we need during a pandemic. It is time for the US government to pioneer a new approach to manufacturing. The pandemic has shown that the US is no longer self-sufficient and cannot produce enough of the basic items needed to protect against a virus. From face masks to ventilators to pharmaceuticals, America is dependent on China”.

Cooperate with others, they tell America, but maintain some level of self-sufficiency, especially in the critical items. And do not put all your eggs in one basket, be that a country like China or a group like the Jews.
