But I can say, if I was a New York Jew, I'd have a gun handy for Kristallnacht NYC. | ||

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2020/05/t he_five_worst_types_of_virtuesignaling.html When a millionaire loudly proclaims that the rich should pay more to support society, but refused to pay one penny in taxes more than he can hire teams of lawyers to avoid, that's hypocrisy. When it's a public announcement in support of the President in an obvious quid pro quo to get that President to stop trash talking the millionaire's most profitable business, it's corrupt hypocrisy. When that same millionaire supports the President on stopping an oil pipeline so the train companies owned by the millionaire can carry the oil instead, at much higher cost to Americans and frequent spills from lack of maintenance or giving a F&%$ about safety and health of the public, that's corruption and just evil. And every step on his path to Hell is highlighted by a very visible sodium lamp powered by a generator that runs on Canadian shale crude, illuminating one in a giant series of signs declaring his concern for light pollution and clean air, as the endless glare blots out the Milky Way and the roiling clouds of choking smoke roll over the small towns downwind of his Magnificent Visible Virtue! And that's just Warren Buffett. The Hollywood types are worse. | ||

Is there a thread where we can post news on the economy? I'm not sure if this is the right thread to post these: Semiconductor companies consider new plants in the U.S. https://apnews.com/37842b6ba19f30cb7b1bf98dc7dade9 b Trump and Chip Makers Including Intel Seek Semiconductor Self-Sufficiency https://www.wsj.com/articles/trump-and-chip-makers -including-intel-seek-semiconductor-self-sufficien cy-11589103002 | ||

Sure, the economy, the countries at War with others, and deep political philosophy, it can go here. | ||

''One explainer and interpreter of deep state machinations is the enigmatic Q group. We are told to “trust the plan” and that “pain is coming.” But are we being sold a bill of goods or are we impatient, not knowing how the movie plays out or ends?'' Being impatient is understandable, but not wise. Not saying that everything is going according to plan, because no man-made plan is perfect except for God's Plan. Yet, there is a plan and it is not a bad idea to trust it. Q serves a moral purpose in the plan, to keep the morale high during war. Q is a morale booster, morale is the most important level in warfare. There are three classic levels of war –– strategic, operational, and tactical. Fourth generation warfare introduces three new levels –– physical, mental, and moral. Quote from ''4th Generation Warfare Handbook'': Three New Levels of War While the three classic levels of war carry over into the Fourth Generation, they are joined there by three new levels which may ultimately be more important. Colonel Boyd identified these three new levels as the physical, the mental, and the moral levels. Furthermore, he argued that the physical level –– killing people and breaking things –– is the least powerful, the moral level is the most powerful, and the mental level lies between. | ||

Problem with that is, it takes physical, mental, and tactical warfare to determine who's "moral" is correct. That's the cause of most conflicts throughout history, yes? "I'm right, you're wrong"? | ||
| Aesquire |
No, actually it's simpler than that. You've got resources, land, food, ore, that I want, so I'll take it. Theft on a bigger scale than an individual. That's the history of War. Always. The moral can be muddy. The treaty of Versailles was a punishment that pushed Germany into a resentful mess. The Leftist international Communists and the Leftist national Socialists took advantage of the justified anger to take power. ( The National Socialist Workers Party won that power struggle, in case you're an ignorant victim of the Leftist school conquest ) From the view of a German citizen, they were being punished for the actions of the now deposed Aristocracy. The War of the Cousins, all Queen Victoria relatives, is usually depicted as a result of entangled alliances and diplomatic failure, ( true ) but was also the last big European Royal ego clash, Grand Theft Country. As the Royal Family structure was replaced by the Western Liberal Enlightenment, the man made religious cult of State worship/dependency, was, and still is, in competition for the wealth of the planet. The Moral can be quite clear, too. Despite claims of Moral Superiority, raw, harsh, truth, is that the Left is as close to pure evil as has been seen in history, based on raw numbers of murders, terrorism on a grand scale, all to keep the New Aristocracy in power. | ||

If someone is right, then they are right despite the physical, the mental and the tactical. If someone is wrong, then they are wrong despite the physical, the mental and the tactical. Morale is not determined by the other levels of war. Might doesn't make right. | ||
| Ratbuell |
That wasn't how I meant to say that, sorry. Nazis thought they were morally correct. Democrats think they are morally correct. Republicans also think they are morally correct. Case to "pick on" - abortion. Or, gun rights. Or, diversity quotas. Who decides? THAT, is the cause of war. Belief that your side is right, and the other side is wrong...and you have to fight to prove it, and make "them" submit to your correct morals. | ||
| Sami |
A person may think their own ways are right, but the LORD weighs the heart. Proverbs 21:2 Ultimately, God decides. But I don't think that is what you meant either. The cause of war often revolves around resources. Just look at the recent trade war and you'll see that it is about resources. Who makes what, when and where? Almost everything has been outsourced to China. It doesn't take a genius to figure out that this does not benefit the rest of the world when it comes to manufacturing jobs. In the 1930s, Britain felt threatened by Germany's economic power. Germany was experiencing an economic boom and was soon surpassing Britain as the world economic power. At that time, Britain was an Empire, and Germany had the ambition to become one on the continent. WW2 was mainly an economic war between the British Empire and Germany. Germany lost the war, but Britain lost its Empire. A similar situation exists between America and China today. America is waging a trade war with China over resources. China, similar to Germany in the previous century, has become an economic powerhouse in the world. This does not sit well with America and for good reasons. Much of China's economic boom has been gained by unfair advantage such as espionage. The trade war is preferable to a physical war. WW2 was a bloody mess, fighting over who is correct can be done by far less bloody means. Warfare has changed, it no longer takes place on the battlefield alone. I don't believe that it is going to be a matter of submitting one side to the other side. What is more likely to happen is that each side is going to become more patriotic (hehe, thread title) resulting in bringing back manufacturing jobs. It is not a question of who submits to who, but a question of who works with who. Globalism was detrimental to people working, because China had the upper hand in almost everything. Patriotism, on the other hand, removes this upper hand of China so that people can work and earn a living wage. | ||

Ultimately, God decides. Also a subject of great debate, throughout human history. Today - Christians versus Islam (more like, Western Society versus Islam...). Nazi Germany - Nazi vs. Jew. Days of Christ - Christian (Gentile) vs. Jew. Back in Egyptian times, I'm sure I remember something from history class about it being Ra vs....someone or other. Their leaders thought themselves to be gods/deities anyway, so EVERY war was religious back then. Granted, for control, power, and resources...but couched as religion, in order to vindicate their positions as "right". Current wars (or potential wars) that I see are religious (Islam vs. everyone); economic (China vs. everyone), and ideological (Democrat/socialist vs. Federalist/patriotic). End result is always power...it's just a matter of which means do you use in order to justify the end? | ||
| Sami |
The end doesn't justify the means. That is why Christianity formulated the just war theory. Wars have to be conducted justly to avoid the end justifying the means. Blaming wars on religion gives a free pass to secular violence. Here's an article on the violent history of secularism and why religion isn't always to be blamed. Far from being an instrument of peace, secularism has its share of violence: The myth of religious violence https://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/sep/25/-sp- karen-armstrong-religious-violence-myth-secular | ||

THAT, is the cause of war. More often, the cause of revolts. War is theft, the moral part is excuses for theft. That's for the entire history of The planet. There are unholy wars, and wars of great moral import. WW2 was the forces of Fascism/Socialism ( in Europe ) stealing their neighbor's everything, in the Pacific, Imperial Militarism ( Shinto ) stealing... So even though there was indeed an ideological/religious aspect, it was still armed robbery, the robbers vs. future victims. If you want to blame the British for WW2, that's only partly so, and far more from the WW1 ending Treaties and land theft practiced by the French and English. The Middle East is the prime example of their greed. African & Asian colonialism, ( by all European Powers, ) also theft, with excuses. Feel free to blame the Brits for the Opium Wars, and the Germans, Japanese ( who had already openly invaded, occupied, parts of China ) & Americans. You'd be surprised how many European countries were involved. Vietnam was also a war of theft. Instead of Kings it was Premiers, but resources, oil & peasants, was the target for the robbery. The current Spratly Islands conquest/theft ONGOING, is actually a continuation of the big Asian Oil Theft. That the conquering Vietnamese ( formerly N. Vietnam ) failed to exploit the oil has more to do with their Soviet sponsors wanting high oil prices and power over Western Industry than anything else. ( that the Vietnamese Communist Dictatorship is incompetent to run an oil program is only a small part, and technically not true. That the oil isn't easy to steal before someone like BP invests the money and skill to get it out is a big factor ) Or... Heck, pick a War. Libya, was Obama stealing a country for his Muslim Brotherhood buddies. Plus oil for France. Syria, ditto, but stupid & failure. Saddam vs. Kuwait. Saddam vs. The Coalition. Iraq vs.Iran. Sure, there's religious differences, ideological reasons, even Prophesy! But it's mostly excuses to steal. |
