Hits the nail on the head for me though ; on many levels.
We are truly in a war. It is not the war we imagine we are in, which is the way our true adversaries want it. It is not a foreign war against a foreign enemy. It is a war on consciousness, a war on our own minds. The global war on terror that is being fought around the world is an embodied reflection in the material world of a deeper, more fundamental war that is going on in the realm of consciousness itself.
We have the most criminal regime in all of our history wreaking unspeakable horror on the entire planet, while simultaneously waging war on the consciousness of its own citizens - Us. If we aren’t aware of this, we are unwittingly playing into, supporting and complicit in the evil that is being perpetrated in our name.
A government’s war on the consciousness of its own citizens is by no means unique to the Bush administration. Abusing power over others so as to limit their freedom is an archetypal process that has been endlessly re-enacted by governments throughout history in various forms. With the Bush administration, however, the pathological aspect of this process has become so exaggerated and amped up to such a degree that it is just about impossible not to notice its staggering malignancy. With the Bush administration, the underlying evil that has played out in our government over many years is becoming overwhelmingly obvious for all to see. With the Bush administration, the underlying evil that informs systems of government that are based on “power over” instead of “liberty for” is coming out from hiding in the shadows. Instead of being acted out underground, our government is acting out this evil above ground, in plain sight for all who are courageous.
Credit-card empire: Part II
What happens when you go out on your debt-financed empire-building binge, and you LOSE?
That is the imperial equivalent of a default. And it's already happening; all the Army people say the Army is broken with sergeants and captains leaving the army at record rates.
It happened to Germany at the end of WWII; their punishment for listening to Hitler was for the country to be divided in two for 45 years.
Bush/Cheney/Rove might not like this idea very much, and declare martial law and suspend the constitution and elections. Then, instead of the US constitution, the country would have as its constitution: the Bible.
And George W. Bush would channel Jesus Christ in public. He would sound like Adolf in the bunker: "The reason we lost is because we did not embrace Jesus Christ as a Christian country! America is being punished for not embracing Jesus Christ, and we must remove all the Christ-haters from our midst."
Maybe that's what all those detention centers are for...
Heil Jesus!
Perhaps. But it hasn't always been thus:
Preconquest Consciousness
It also is meant to keep us from evolving spiritually [finding communion as well as community] as we should, and other fronts being attacked are our physical health. Bad food, bad air, bad "bread and circuses" all are part of this War on Consciousness.
Further, it is a mind war, in a sense a 'human spirit' war. Where evolution, ideals of the enlightenment, liberal democracy, and true freedom have been high-jacked, waged over decades, and the people compartmentalized and alienated from each other on purpose. As I have stated before , democracy is not an 'American ideal'. And the horror of the situation is that It has thus become infected like a mind virus, AND UNMASKED to reveal the sick and twisted Hungry Ghosts and their banquents of Heliogabalus, where they taught us and laugh at us, and have the highest loathing for 'we the people', any people.
