Julian this was one of your best. It describes the moral and political bankruptcy of the once mighty American empire.

I don’t think there are enough good men to right the sinking ship. How long it takes for the satanic undercurrent to bring poverty and despair is not known but we’re on the edge.

The spiritual war we are engaged in is the last of this civilization. Please put on your Armor of God and battle the evil that has infested our world.

Mark 8:35 King James Version

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.

I think I was inspired by some of YOUR comments, as well as others about this as a spiritual war. At the time that I was writing my booking Ageing Young, which is really a long essay about human biology --about the fundamentals of what we are and why, I thought spirituality unimportant to my thesis. But the more I researched (the bibliography is more than a hundred pages long), I realized that spirituality is a key to human nature. Without it, there was something missing in my writing. I developed that in a second book, Pan Ludens, which has not been published yet. In my writings about the war-that-is-not-a-war, you and others remind me again that spirituality is a key. Thank you!

Yes, I have watched that Blinken clip a few times because it's so surreal. Probably the very best illustration of projection from a high level US official, ever...and the competition is super strong in the US official's projection stakes. Nothing can stem America's political-cultural decline...and not a minute too soon... pity, but that's the nature of empires

Assange spoke truth to power. Blink changes Biden's nappies and speaks truth to poop. Or is it poop to truth?

Sometimes we need a good smile. I did the same substitution with Blinken's stupid comments. As per usual change the subject of the sentence and you get the truth.

Yes, we need a smile. When Blinken smiles we are reminded of the need to floss and gargle.

The difference in engineering graduates between the US and Russia is even more drastic since 1/3 of engineering graduates in the US are foreign-born

That is an interesting fact that I should have included. Thank you for reminding me.

That would bring US born engineering grads to 158,000+, less than Iran!

Certainly Anthony Blinken is living in a "fantasy world".

He definitely has Blinkers on!

I totally agree with the statements made in this article and I have been saying all this since even before the war started.

I have lived a long time on the face of this earth and rarely heard such obvious lies. Not since Colin Powell anyway.

Hadn't thought of that....Blinken...Blinkers on! Thank you! Can I steal that and pretend it's mine? Never mind, I will credit you. Good to remind us of Powell, a scumbag who died a hero (according to the MSM).

No worries.

Go for it.

I spent years on the Iraq war. Made trips to Baghdad etc to see first hand what was going on.

It totally changed my view of the west. (There are no good guys)

A documentary was made on my work for peace. "From Baghdad to Peace Country" You can watch it on line if you google it.

Good luck to you.

Thanks for this. I will definitely watch it. Iraq? In my case, I went to Lao in '73 on my way to Cambodiia during the Siege. Fortunately, I never made it into Cambodia and had to flee from Southern Lao north, Changed me a lot.

Maybe Nod is actually a state of mind and spirit. If so, I definitely think the US is the closest representation to it - the people included. And I continually find copious correlations to cartoons and fables galore, too. Fortunately, the role of Pied Piper is shifting. And the majority of the world is waking up to hear the music.

Hadn't thought of the Pied Piper. The Children's Crusade. Thank you for this. To hear the music, you have to choose and turn on the player. Most people don't choose And their players are out of batteries

Thank You.

It was a pleasure to read again and remembering that i am not the only one who experiences veritable reality in stead of the virtual "Matrix" reality projected by the Media and the Western Political Class.

And that has been true in part for a long time. I got my degree in 1980 - while not quite that many students were foreign in my class the TAs were ALL foreign.

On-topic tax: I enjoy that they're just ignoring the pillars that hold up their superiority - putting the cart before the horse writ-large. That sort of thing never ends well.

Real comment:

IN THE NAME OF KANE!

KANE LIVES IN DEATH!

ONE MISSION, ONE PURPOSE!

PEACE THROUGH POWER!

I am clinically diagnosed as "co-morbid" with ADHD and Aspergers. I am dys-everything. Dyslexic, dysgraphic, dyspraxic, dyscalculic,,,I am sure there are few more "dys"s". In elementary school, I was considered a.) mentally challenged b.) weird . By high school I was "gifted" But still weird. Most of my family is "on the spectrum" - but each one is unique with unique disabilities and abilities, You will notice that Asperger's has been dropped from DSM V-- there is now only "autism", which covers all sorts of stuff. That's good for psychiatry as a pseudo-scientific, pseudo-medical industry (IMO). Genetic studies indicate that hunter & gathering bands have a disporportionate number of people with the DRDR7 repeat allele and GARB3 and associated gene sets that are instrumental in SOME people "on the spectrum" (I have both).-- at least 30%, compared to probably about 5% in neighbouring tribal, agricultural peoples. However, the genomics are complicated. More recent studies implicate long non-coding RNA as responsible .https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/cns.13629. This is important because the primary differences between Homo Sapiens and Homo Neander thalis - as well as chimpanzees is lncRNA--which make possible neurodivergence -- also a key to creativity--divergent thinking, These same long non-coding factors also make possible self-awareness AND self-transcendence, longevity, sociality, playfulness, intuition. Neanderthals had a bigger brain than ours and might actually have scored higher on IQ tests which measure convergent thinking. Read here for the research. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41380-021-01097-y
