A Time for War
2017-11-25
[American Thinker] "To everything, there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven." That’s the beginning of a famous bible verse. It’s a litany of life’s times and wonders that are dropped in our laps; weeping, laughing, dancing, healing.

The last line purposely changes tone and says, "a time for war".

Like it or not, this is that time.

Civil War.

It’s here. Now. Thankfully this is not yet the blood in the streets kind of war, but war it is. It’s a war for the soul of this country, it’s a war that will affect everyone; none will escape having to deal with it directly, or indirectly.

How did we get here? It’s complicated. But one thing for sure: what’s not complicated is who started this war, why, and who it is with. During our lives, it was started by the hard left, and it’s a war to achieve power for them, for them to change the entire workings of our country. They want to remake every institution they can, with themselves in control of as much as possible. Power to them, belongs in the hands of their brilliant ideas, and their overwhelming moral superiority. They believe this war is necessary in order to root out the injustice inherent in our country’s institutions and its tawdry citizenry.

The war in its current form began in the sixties. It was envisioned by the radicals in the SDS days, spurred by the luminaries of the Frankfurt School, furthered by the activities of Herbert Marcuse, Howard Zinn, Bill Ayers, and the leftist academic institutions we send our children to. They have taken over institution after institution in a long, calculated preparation for this war.

#2  Gefillte of Kipling, he'll tell it,
Appealing to Djilas to sell it:
Not royalty, but Henry.
An envoy on envy:
Well heed ye the helot, not zealot!

#1  And you're doing it all wrong. It's not a fight against ideology - which is endlessly mutable. It's a fight against second rate people who want first rate jobs and found a simple gimmick to get them - just make outrageous demands and mob anyone who dares to disagree and funnel all quality positions to ideologically sound (agreeable) comrades. See The New Class for details.
