"Although all Israel was assembled together against [the Benjamites in Judges 20] without any dissension or rebellion as though they were all one man, yet they never obtained the victory against their enemies until they humbled themselves before God by fastings and prayers and asked pardon for their sins and placed their pride and their glory in the dust (Judg. 20:26).
"And then, when they had wholly rejected their own power and might and had placed all their trust in God instead of in their great multitude and in their horses and weapons and gave Him all the glory, they learned by experience that He is not without good reason called the Lord of Hosts. For, though they had a righteous cause, and though God was with them and they had every advantage—even according to worldly standards—yet God desired to humble them. For He resists the proud but gives grace to the humble (1 Pet. 5:5; Jas. 4:6).
Now the Israelites were so prideful before they humbled themselves that it seemed to them that they could swallow their enemies whole and do whatever they wanted with them.
Therefore God willed to show them that victory lies neither in force of
arms nor in the multitude of men,
nor even in a righteous cause,
but in Him alone. For we can indeed take a cause which is righteous before God and make it a wicked one by our guilt and sins and by what we add of ourselves."
Pierre Viret (1510 – 1571), Swiss Reformed theologian, evangelist and Protestant reformer
What it means: Britain is a conquered nation.
Last summer, B. Duncan Moench delivered this brutal story about the rape gangs from the formal Inquiry documents. Excerpts:
The scandal continues to horrify not just because of the systemic sexual violence waged on children and teens, but because it reveals the deliberate sacrifice of vulnerable population groups who in theory should be able to count on the protection of the administrative state. Instead, institutions operating under a calculated bureaucratic plan offer poor and working-class adolescents up as sacrifices to the altar of multiculturalism.
For over a decade in towns like Rotherham, Rochdale, and Telford, young native British girls—some as young as eleven—were groomed, drugged, raped, and trafficked by networks of immigrant men from East Asia. The young girls were first love-bombed with gifts and flattery, then lured into private spaces—plied with alcohol and pills—then passed between grown men who raped them repeatedly. Sometimes ...

Retired British Col. Richard Kemp told i24News on Thursday that he fears for the country’s future. If the government attempts to confront what he called the “Islamification” of Britain, including the rape culture, millions of British Muslims could revolt. “I think the end result of that is very likely to be civil war in Britain,” he said.
