The People Are Ignorant of Civics - And Civic Virtue - And Christian Wisdom

Voters in the European elections did not show much understanding of their dangerous state of collapse. Remarks Simplicius, "Civic virtue has died because our culture has been poisoned beyond rehabilitation. Even if you were to clear the slate of techno- and bureaucracy you’d be left with the stupefied degenerate masses too gormless to be ruled justly and virtuously."

Adds Mark Wauck, "[The people] are sick. Society has been reduced, largely, to a collection of atomistic individuals lacking the unifying principle of a culture rooted in a moral and metaphysical vision. That was Christendom, which seemingly is no more—replaced by the profit motive or, in our all embracing welfare New Deal, the plaintive cry: Where’s mine?"

The simple solution to all of the above: the people could embrace and restore Christendom, and then take it to even more robust and longer-lasting levels of cultural influence.

Failed Strategy in Real Time

Today's assymetrical warfare: Iran's cheap munitions are taking out American's most expensive aircraft.

One internet observer:

"Iran, still using their pawns, while Israel and the US out there, with only their King n Queen left. Who will fall first?

"5 pawns and a king versus a king and queen in a chess end game, the side with the 8 pawns always wins. 5 pawns is enough. That’s standard.

"In a way, you could call it asymmetrical warfare."

Guess What People Are Lining Up to Buy in War-Torn Ukraine?

Well, it's not "A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius."

It's $400,000 Bentley automobiles. A lot of them. Of all the dealerships in Europe, the one in Kiev is in third place for sheer volume.

Take note of this tragic truth:

"Foreign aid is a mechanism by which poor people in rich countries are taxed to support the lifestyles of rich people in poor countries. The aid primarily serves three Ms—: munitions, monuments, and Mercedes for leaders and cronies."

--- Peter Thomas Bauer, a Hungarian-born British development economist:

Power Still On in Iran, Discussions of Peace Commence

Donald Trump this morning announced that “VERY GOOD AND PRODUCTIVE CONVERSATIONS REGARDING A COMPLETE AND TOTAL RESOLUTION OF OUR HOSTILITIES IN THE MIDDLE EAST” have taken place between the U.S. and Iran over the past two days.

As a result, the president has “INSTRUCTED THE DEPARTMENT OF WAR TO POSTPONE ANY AND ALL MILITARY STRIKES AGAINST IRANIAN POWER PLANTS AND ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURE FOR A FIVE DAY PERIOD.”
