COMMENT #1: Your article on families dividing is foretold in the Bible. In Mathew 10 it states:
“children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death.”
REPLY #1: Well, I suppose that more or less confirms the discord unfolding as we head into 2032.
COMMENT #2: All wars require funding.
When Athens lost the Lavrio silver mines they melted the silver offerings at the temple of Athena in Acropoli. When this was finished they minted gold coins from what little they had. Finally they lost the war to Sparta.Alexander was strained for gold until he conquered Susa and was able to continue the expedition.When the Roman legions were left unpaid they revolted. They were promised loot and land from conquests and when no more new lands they were given Italian, till no more.Byzantium at its decline needed mercenary armies who naturally demanded plenty of money.They were bankrupt couldn’t afford them and lost.
What is different now?
Ukraine,judging by its bond rates, is virtually bankrupt.Empty coffers,diminishing tax income and huge military expenses.
The already pledged collateral in the form of precious land and recourses is rapidly changing hands and the lenders are panicking.If Odessa is lost their fate is sealed for ever.
The gullible who are sleeping in their armchairs being fed propaganda believe the war is about democracy and human rights when in reality it is nothing like that.
Those are the same geniuses who believed two years ago that Russia did not have enough ammunition or that it would fall apart by the Draconian sanctions imposed by western powers .
Let them then loan their own money to zelenski.They ,for sure,will make happy the war machine profiteers.
As for the mothers losing their sonswho cares.
Worse is happening in Gaza.They call it necessary casualties.
Madness or stupidity?History will show.If we are still alive…

REPLY #2: The historical success of tyranny always hinges on the support of the military. The number one lesson governments have learned is that you use troops who are not from the same region. When Yeltsin stood on the tank in Moscow and told the troops not to fire on their own people, they stood down, and the coup collapsed. They did not learn the historical less of the Nika Revolt of January 13th, 532AD.
According to the historian Procopius, around 30,000 people were killed. The Emperor was going to flee, and his wife told him there was a non-Greek legion outside Constantinople. They were called in to put down the revolt. Since they were not of that region, they hated the pompous Greeks. It was their opportunity to kill them.
BEWARE of these migrants. They are trying to fill the military with those who will relish the opportunity to kill citizens and get the spoils. They know what they are doing, and this is right out of the playbook on how to put down insurrections. It is also why they say Pelosi was reluctant to bring in the National Guard on January 6th because many feared they would have been armed Trump supporters.
COMMENT #3: We just lost the first Class A action ever – against the Swiss government in causa Corona measures, in front of an obviously corrupt Swiss Supreme Court.Anyway was worth a trial..
State liability lawsuit dismissed due to Federal Council’s corona measuresThe Federal Supreme Court has dismissed the lawsuit brought by around 10,000 people against the Swiss Confederation due to allegedly unlawful, freedom-restricting measures taken by the Federal Council in connection with the corona pandemic. The plaintiffs had demanded symbolic compensation of one franc each. The written justification for the decision made in the main hearing on Thursday, August 29, 2024 will follow at a later date.
Swiis Court Dismisses COVID Suit
REPLY: The Supreme Court of Switzerland dismissed a class action suit against the government for restricting their freedom during COVID. No government will take responsibility for their actions. As Thrasymachus said 2500 years ago, justice is only the self-interest of those in power. Now, the World Health Organization wants to call another pandemic to push the agenda of a one-world government. They assume they will get away with it again.
