Playing With Matches In The Paint Locker Of History.

I recently received an email from the neocons at The Weekly Standard. The kind we've all seen making a pitch, to sell their phony conservative propaganda rag and contribute to Hillsdale College. The hook line was "Do you feel like your Constitutional rights are under attack?" If you've read my previous piece on, to put it mildly, what a low opinion I have of Bill Kristol, you will understand how the hubris of The Weekly Standard even asking that question pisses me off no end.

Bill Kristol. The American Brutus.

Yes our Constitutional rights are under threat, especially by neocon deep state front operations like Bill Kristol and The Weekly Standard which in its perspective has become all but synonymous with the likes of the Washington Post and the New York Times.

These people need to stop and think. By aligning themselves with the forces of the deep state at the CIA and the NSA they are seriously courting a coup d'tat and possibly even civil insurrection. Don't kid yourself about this. Not only is Kristol contemptuous of the American middle class but he just openly stated he prefers the machinations of the deep state over our constitutionally and democratically elected President. This borders on treason if not actually stepping over the line.

This isn't about Milo or even freedom of speech.
It's about spreading chaos and. uncertainty
in the minds of the American public.

Should we become involved in violent internal strife, be it caused by violent leftists funded by the likes of George Soros or a populist reaction to continuing illegal intelligence operations undermining the Presidency, the repercussions will reach far beyond our own shores. The worry isn't a dubious Russian threat in Eastern Europe. The real threat lies on the other side of the Pacific.

Just one of several of the Spratly
islands being transformed into
operational naval an air bases.

The Chinese haven't been building their military capabilities for decades just to throw fancy parades in Tiananman Square. Were there arise serious questions as to who is in charge in DC or how much actual control they have there will be almost no restraints on their ambitions. Taiwan will be in imminent peril as will the Singapore Straights and the oilfields of Sarawak and Bruni.  A single American Carrier Task Force in the Formosa Straights isn't going to stop them. Any quick examination of the air strike radius of their newly constructed bases in the Spratly Islands makes that more than apparent.

Only a fool would think that the Chinese have taken over operational control of the Panama Canal and numerous American and European ports simply for financial reasons. For God's sake the evenly openly warned of the possibility and their capability, to launch unprovoked attacks against American military targets less than two weeks ago. If there is anything the Chinese have learned from America's long war with Islamic Jihadists it's that our reaction times are hindered by bureaucracy and political correctness (the same failure as Vietnam) and most importantly that we don't take are enemies at their word.

Yes the machines of them deep state safe reaching
into every corner of government and private life.

Make no mistake George Soros is manipulating his colleges full of useful idiots, black lives matter and communist/anarchist shock troops towards the same goal as the neocon/deep state globalists and their propaganda outlets like The Weekly Standard: The final destruction of what is left of the American Republic and the establishment of an American empire of global hegemony. The problems are that the Chinese and others have no intention of playing along with their Orwellian dreams and that in their undermining the Republic they have so incumbered and weakened our in depth military capabilities that that aspect of there grandiose plan is little more than a hollow fantasy.

Yes the Russian actions in Ukraine, Crimea and the Caucuses are wrong and should be vigorously opposed on the diplomatic front. But vis a vis the Chinese, we should be looking towards cooperation with the Russians as an added counter balance to Chinese expansionism. And that is precisely what the deep state and their propagandists.  are afraid Trump will do and are desperate to stop.

Should China make a move against Taiwan, the oil fields of northern Borneo and to control the shipping lanes at Singapore because the US is in a state of political chaos there should be little doubt that a now nuclear armed North Korea would also strike out. Perhaps not with nukes but certainly with enough force to keep both South Korean and Japanese forces and the Americans stationed in that theater occupied enough to keep them from lending assistance anywhere else. The same might also be expected from the mad Mullahs of Iran closing the Straight of Hormuz and interrupting fully a third of the world's oil supply.

Think Dec. 7th on a global scale. The US at present could barely respond definitively on one front nevermind two or three. The international pressure would of course be to deal with the Persian gulf and the Chinese would cynically and gladly see Iran sacrificed if doing so left them in control of a new "East Asian Co-prosperity Sphere", and at the same time fully distract and occupy both the US and Russia. What part the Russians would play absent a closer relationship with the US can only be speculated at. They still have a bitter taste from the cost of maintaining an empire in central Europe and the part that Afghanistan played in the collapse of the Soviet Union. At the very least they might be expected to quickly move to take back the Baltics, Belorussia and Ukraine. How firm their commitment to Iran is open to question. Other than by air and across the Caspian Sea they have no direct supply lines to Iran.

Playing with matches in the paint locker can sink a
ship at sea and the ship of State right here's at home.

These assholes, be they the neocons at The Weekly Standard, the MSM and their various propaganda outlets, the leftist/anarchist tools and fools of George Soros or the deep state operatives in the intelegence agencies and elsewhere are playing with matches in the paint locker. In their boundless arrogance and lust for power they actually think that they and only they can control events. Their track record when it comes to the unintended consequences to their interventions into he politics of foreign states has been horrendous and deadly. Now they want to turn their deadly machines against the American Republic and its citizens.

They killed not the tyrant
but the Republic itself.

There is a confrontation coming in America and it's consequences could well be no less profound than the assassination of Julius Caesar. The elites at the center of Rome were no less desperate to maintain control of the politics and wealth of Rome than these fools at the center of power in Washington DC. What the Romans got for their hubris and greed was a civil war and a tyrant named Augustus, who proved  worse, than anything Caeser could have ever imagined.

Like it or not, for all its imperfections the United States remains the main obstacle to some very powerful and corrupt forces in this world. The question becomes will "We The People" sit back and let the last great hope of human freedom be similarly swallowed into tyranny and yet another war, and this time with very possible nuclear consequences?
