Broken civilizations get rebuilt at the local community level as families, businesses, churches and small civil governments begin to learn what those local institutions can be. That is happening right now in the US, primarily in rural counties.

We explore real-life reformation here in this informed, online community.

When Delusion Drives the Affairs of Nations

"Earlier this week, Time published a story about Volodymyr Zelensky’s struggle to, well, make people still care about his war, given that there is now another conflict unfolding in the Middle East. “He deludes himself,” one of his closest aides told Time. “We’re out of options. We’re not winning. But try telling him that.”

There are different ways to look at this. You might say the only people more deluded than Zelensky are his Western backers. Or you might say the plan has always been fighting Russia to the last Ukrainian and that it required someone as deluded as Zelensky from the start.

Meanwhile, the southern U.S. border remains open. How bad is it? In a letter obtained by The Associated Press on Wednesday, the mayors of Chicago, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, and New York pressed to “meet with President Joe Biden about getting federal help in managing the surge of migrants they say are arriving in their cities with little to no coordination, support or resources from his administration.”

The problem has become unbearably real, even for liberals.

“Migrants are sleeping in police station foyers in Chicago. In New York, a cruise ship terminal was turned into a shelter,” the letter said. “In Denver, the number of migrants arriving has increased tenfold and available space to shelter them has withered.”

Short Summary of Misguided or Pointless Wars

1914: Austria tries to overthrow King of Serbia, which leads to World War I and millions dead. Epic Fail.

1917: Idiot schemers in German government give Vladimir Lenin safe passage from his Swiss exile back to Russia to overthrow the Russian Provisional Government and take Russia out of the war. Lenin succeeds, but then unleashes the worst regime in history on Russia—a regime that subsequently threatened all of Europe. Epic Fail.

1919-1920: Following World War I, punitive treaties formally dissolve Habsburg, Hohenzollern, and Ottoman regimes. Europe and the entire Middle East are further destabilized, leading directly to World War II. Epic Fail.

1963: CIA backs military coup to overthrow South Vietnamese President Ngo Dinh Diem, thereby deepening U.S. involvement in Vietnam. Epic Fail.

2001-2021: U.S. occupation of Afghanistan, resulting in tens of thousands dead, tens of thousands of traumatic brain injuries, and trillions spent, achieves nothing, leaves Taliban in power. Epic Fail.

"Bombs Will Be Dropping Everywhere"

Within 24 hours of my last post on the subject (below: "War could begin in 48 hours" ), America is now in a hot, kinetic world war with Iran and its international allies. Combat operations are in active operation.

"Stay sheltered," Mr. Trump told the Iranian people. "Don’t leave your home, it’s very dangerous outside. Bombs will be dropping everywhere. When we are finished, take over your government. It will be yours to take. This will, probably be your only chance for generations… now is the time to seize control of your destiny."

Questions affecting the destiny of Americans: Is this war Biblically justified? Did Congress approve it? What will be the American casualties at home and abroad? At what point will the war be declared over?
