This is a great discussion on history and current events. I wanted to post there but was not able to because of not being a ‘paid subscriber’.
While listening to this, it dawned on me that we have always created boogeymen to scare the masses with. The biggest, baddest, meanest, and most evil bogeyman was focussed on. The Soviet Union after the great war, after that the Commies in South Korea, and South Vietnam. Then the Muslim Extremists, and now Russia and our own citizens who do not agree with the party in power in America.
When you think back on all of this and consider the money spent, the lives lost and ruined, and the hatred stirred up, it is astounding. These wars never end, just like in 1984. The bible states “wars and rumors of wars”.
Is this how they are controlling us? Perhaps this is only one of many way they control us. I ask this to each of you, can you remember in your lifetime when we were not in a war?
The other question is, who benefits by gaining power and or wealth?
