| A Nuclear War Is looming |
What was sold to the world as "the New World Order" by George Bush, the
father of George W.Bush can only be described today as a total failure
and should really be known as the "World Corporate Takeover".
As a result things are escalating in the world today: tensions, wars, guns, refugee
crises, poverty, economic crises, immigration, etc.
The world must solve these
problems before they explode into a
Third World Nuclear War.
World leaders, politicians, people cannot continue keep silent on
atrocities going on around the world, especially the Middle East and
Africa, or even in our own Western cities and neighborhoods.
Only when enough voices are raised can something change.
Feel
encouraged to use the social media, not only for pleasantries, culinary
delights, travel, or navel staring, but also use it as a non-violent,
but very effective weapon to criticize your elected leaders,
corporations, the press, on issues that are important for your survival.
Those
of you using Blogs or other communications tools, as an oversight to
expose governments and corporate "hanky-panky" need to be cheered on and
complimented.
The younger generation, reading this
report, are also encouraged to use their energy and skills, not only to
make money, but also to become an activists, by speaking their minds on
issues they believe in.
After all as Alexis de Tocqueville once said said: "The health of a democratic society may be measured by the quality of
functions performed by its private citizens" .
Take the
time to look around you and you will soon realize that the so-called
"status-quo " enjoyed by only a few, is not sufficient to guarantee a
productive living environment for all.
It is no longer acceptable before God, and people with conscience.
Nations who have no voice in the world are being purged, gutted out and
destroyed.
Today there is conflict all over the world.
You name it, the Middle East, Africa,
Central America, Ukraine, etc. Thousands have perished in Syria, and
millions fled from their homes; thousands are perishing in Yemen, mostly
children; thousand in Iraq and the destruction of an ancient city;
thousands fled in Libya where another war is raging; 60, 000 just fled
their homes a few days ago in South Sudan; Mali, Central
African Republic, Somali, Congo all in conflict and millions in refugee
camps. Thousands have perished and millions fled to seek refugee status
in Europe, Turkey, Lebanon and even the US.
Something
must be done soon before the frail structures still holding the world
from collapsing into a Third World Nuclear War” also collapse.
Many
of the areas where you have conflicts these days are usually the
so-called Third World Nations or as somecall them, Developing Nations.
They do, however, contain most of the natural resources in the world,
but still remain among the poorest nations of
the world.
The obvious question is why?
Mainly
because the global centers of power in the world, including the US, EU,
China, Russia, Britain, either use these developing countries to expand
their political sphere of influence, or to control their natural
resources, under
all kinds of pretenses; including the setting-up of puppet leaders who
do their bidding.
Once a grip is established by "an
outside power", it will put a "friendly" Puppet Government in place
providing it with weapons to control the people they govern.
When
those leaders, however, for one reason or another, are not able to
meet the goals set for them by their "foreign benefactor", they are
either exciled or assassinated, under whatever pretense.
This is the way leaders in Egypt, Libya, Iraq, etc. were toppled.
Consequently
many of the world's Third World leaders are ruthless, wicked, and not
able to develop these
natural resources for the benefit of their own people, specially in
Africa, blessed with just about every natural resource the world needs.
Our own Western leaders are not much better in that respect, specially when it comes to Democracy or governance.
They
seldom show any remorse for the atrocities they have created around the
world; are godless and immoral;
will promise anything to keep control over the people, only to deceive, will not do
what they promise and usually create more problems than opportunities for the people they
are supposed to serve.
Poverty has spread across the
globe, not only in Africa, but now also to the rich
and powerful nations of the world, including, the US, India, Russia,
China, Britain, Greece, France, Braxil, Venezuela and many more.
When
it comes to politics, people these days the world over have a
lot in common. From Fukushima to Athens, and from Washington to
Shanghai,
China, the collective refrain is that government is not to be trusted,
or working the way it should, and that corporations are calling the shots
today.
People
in the so-called "civilized" world now pay dearly for energy,
medicine,insurance, healthcare, banking, and telecommunications
services. In the past it was called Voodoo Economics and today it has become Strangle-Hold Economics.
Research reveals that people are paying more -- much
more -- in a variety of ways that our business-friendly mainstream media
won't talk about.
Just look at America's Middle class. It is almost wiped out; either you
are rich, or poor now; poverty levels stand at 46 percent and is increasing; millions are in
shelters, and millions without jobs.
To
add insult to injury - The wide-spread availability of guns in America
has killed thousands of
Americans, and everyday, many more die from gun violence; yet, Congress
doesn't want to pass gun control law. Mainly again because of the
powerful NRA lobby, which has its hands on the pocketbook of just about
every legislator in both major parties.
In
the meantime the corporate power structure has taken over most of the
political decision making in Western Countries, and even more so in America. It now influences and
controls just about anything you can imagine. From the healthcare
Industry to the food industry, even influencing what kind of hormones
and pesticides are allowed in the food you eat, and all else in
between.
The
Pharmaceutical industry uses sales agents, not only to peddle their
drugs, but also to bribe Drs. with a variety of incentives, including
money.
Drs. are prescribing drugs and performing surgery on patients that don't really need those particular drugs or the surgery, while new effective and cheaper .drugs that can cure patient are delayed in being put on to the marketplace,t so that the Pharmaceutical Industry can continue selling expensive drugs which don't work. .
A report by Battelle Memorial Institute determined that the $4 billion government-funded Human Genome Project (HGP) will generate economic activity of about $140 for every dollar spent. Although that estimate controversial, drug industry executives say it's just a matter of time before the profits roll in.
Big
business has quickly made its move on this.
One-fifth of the human genome is now privately owned through patents. Strains of influenza and hepatitis have been claimed by
corporate and private university labs, preventing researchers from
using the patented life forms to perform cancer research. This is not
only bad it is plainly criminal.
As if to mock us, while taking over our public research, some of the largest drug companies haven't been paying much in taxes. Pfizer had 40% of its 2011-12 revenues in the U.S., but declared almost $7 billion in U.S. losses to go along with $31 billion in foreign profits. Abbott Labs had 42% of its sales in the U.S., but declared a loss in the U.S. along with $12 billion in foreign profits.
These alliances between the political establishment and the corporate world are now commonplace and even expanding further..
In the area of communications we see similar developments.
In the US the
CIA and NSA have been using public tax money to pay AT&T. Google,
and other companies to access its data - basically your private data - for surveillance
purposes.
With almost no transparency or oversight, the CIA has been paying AT&T to monitor US citizens overseas phone calls. Hundreds of dollars per customer per month goes to Verizon for similar snooping.
The NSA also compensated Google, Yahoo, Microsoft and Facebook for penalties accrued in the secretive Prism surveillance program.
Many US corporations consequently feel very powerful as a result of the
inequitable support
they receive from their government when operating in other countries,
and often act accordingly in an arrogant way, when dealing with foreign
governments.
Recently Facebook rejected claims made by Germany's state authorities that it was
reluctant to co-operate with them on criminal investigations, saying
many of the requests it received for user data were incorrectly
formulated.
Several regional
interior ministers have complained that the social media group is
hesitant to respond to requests for data and have called on the Federal
Justice Ministry to introduce new laws.
German Police said the Ansbach bomber had six
Facebook accounts including one held under a false identity. Traces of
an online messaging conversation found on his phone also suggest he was
influenced by an unknown person up until the time of the attack, said Bavaria's interior minister.
Germany's
spy chief called on Monday for a more intensive exchange of information
between social networks and security agencies in the fight against
terrorism.
Bottom-line: The state of the world is not looking good, and maybe in this respect one should quote
Scripture which says: “You will reap whatever you sow in life.”
Mankind certainly can not be proud about what it sowed.
The time of reckoning is fast approaching -and we must act before it is too late,
