Crisis Warning - Must Read:

INTERESTING ESSAY 

Men, like nations, think they're eternal.  What 
man in his 20s or 30s doesn't believe, at least 
subconsciously, that he'll live forever? In the 
springtime of youth, an endless summer beckons. 
As you pass 70, it's harder to hide from reality.... 
as you lose friends and relatives.
Nations also have seasons: Imagine a Roman of 
the 2nd century contemplating an empire that 
stretched from Britain to the Near East, thinking: 
This will endure forever.... Forever was about 500 
years, give or take.... not bad, but gone!!
France was pivotal in the 17th and 18th centuries; 
now the land of Charles Martel is on its way to 
becoming part of the Muslim ummah.
In the 19th and early 20th centuries, the sun never 
set on the British empire; now Albion exists in 
perpetual twilight. Its 96-year-old sovereign is a 
fitting symbol for a nation in terminal decline.
In the 1980s, Japan seemed poised to buy the 
world. Business schools taught Japanese


management techniques. Today, its birth rate is so 
low and its population aging so rapidly that an 
industry has sprung up to remove the remains of 
elderly Japanese who die alone.
I was born in 1945, almost at the midpoint of the 
20th century - the American century. America's 
prestige and influence were never greater. Thanks 
to the 'Greatest Generation,' we won a World War 
fought throughout most of Europe, Asia, and the 
Pacific. We reduced Germany to rubble and put 
the rising sun to bed. It set the stage for almost 
half a century of unprecedented prosperity.
We stopped the spread of communism in Europe 
and Asia and fought international terrorism. We 
rebuilt our enemies and lavished foreign aid on 
much of the world. We built skyscrapers and 
rockets to the moon. We conquered Polio and now 
COVID. We explored the mysteries of the 
Universe and the wonders of DNA...the blueprint 
of life.
But where is the glory that once was Rome? 
America has moved from a relatively free 
economy to socialism - which has worked so nowhere in the world


We've gone from a republican government 
guided by a constitution to a regime of revolving 
elites. We have less freedom with each passing 
year. Like a signpost to the coming reign of terror, 
the cancel culture is everywhere. We've traded the 
American Revolution for the Cultural Revolution.
The pathetic creature in the White House is an 
empty vessel filled by his handlers. At the G-7 
Summit, 'Dr. Jill' had to lead him like a child. In 
1961, when we were young and vigorous, our 
leader was too. Now a feeble nation is technically 
led by the oldest man to ever serve in the 
presidency.
We can't defend our borders, our history 
(including monuments to past greatness) or our 
streets. Our cities have become anarchist 
playgrounds. We are a nation of dependents, 
mendicants, and misplaced charity. Homeless 
veterans camp in the streets while illegal aliens 
are put up in hotels.
The president of the United States can't even 
quote the beginning of the Declaration of 
Independence ('You know - The Thing') correctly. 
Ivy League graduates routinely fail history tests 
that 5th graders could pass a generation ago. 



Crime rates soar and we blame the 2nd. 
Amendment and slash police budgets.
Our culture is certifiably insane. Men who think 
they're women. People who fight racism by 
seeking to convince members of one race that 
they're inherently evil, and others that they are 
perpetual victims. A psychiatrist lecturing at Yale 
said she fantasizes about 'unloading a revolver 
into the head of any white person.'
We slaughter the unborn in the name of freedom, 
while our birth rate dips lower year by year. Our 
national debt is so high that we can no longer 
even pretend that we will repay it one day. It's a 
$30-trillion monument to our improvidence and 
refusal to confront reality. Our 'entertainment' is 
sadistic, nihilistic, and as enduring as a candy bar 
wrapper thrown in the trash. Our music is noise 
that spans the spectrum from annoying to 
repulsive.
Patriotism is called an insurrection, treason 
celebrated, and perversion sanctified. A man in 
blue gets less respect than a man in a dress. We're 
asking soldiers to fight for a nation our leaders no longer believe in



How meekly most of us submitted to Fauci-ism 
(the regime of face masks, lockdowns, and hand 
sanitizers) shows the impending death of the 
American spirit.
How do nations slip from greatness to obscurity?
* Fighting endless wars they can't or won't win
* Accumulating massive debt far beyond their 
ability to repay
* Refusing to guard their borders, allowing the 
nation to be inundated by an alien horde
* Surrendering control of their cities to mob rule
* Allowing indoctrination of the young
* Moving from a republican form of government 
to an oligarchy
* Losing national identity
* Indulging indolence
* Abandoning God, faith and family - the 
bulwarks of any stable society.
In America, every one of these symptoms is 
pronounced, indicating an advanced stage of the disease


Even if the cause seems hopeless, do we not have 
an obligation to those who sacrificed so much to 
give us what we had? I'm surrounded by ghosts 
urging me on: the Union soldiers who held 
Cemetery Ridge at Gettysburg, the battered 
bastards of Bastogne, those who served in the cold 
hell of Korea, the guys who went to the jungles of 
Southeast Asia and came home to be reviled or 
neglected.
This is the nation that took in my immigrant 
grandparents, whose uniform my father and most 
of my uncles wore in the Second World War. I 
don't want to imagine a world without America, 
even though it becomes increasingly likely.
During Britain's darkest hour, when its 
professional army was trapped at Dunkirk and a 
German invasion seemed imminent, Churchill 
reminded his countrymen, 'Nations that go down 
fighting rise again, and those that surrender 
tamely are finished.'
The same might be said of causes. If we let 
America slip through our fingers, if we lose 
without a fight, what will posterity say of us?


While the prognosis is far from good. Only God 
knows if America's day in the sun is over."
Read it and weep, forward or erase it! I read it 
and am now forwarding it to you, believing that 
we in America are at the moment in time to stand 
up, or let it fall! We now may soon beat the next 
step in our country's future. I believe that it might  be closer than we think
