What we are facing is greater than war, greater than civil war, greater than genocide, greater than worldwide migration, greater than being conquered; it’s greater than recession or depression, dispossession, bankruptcy or collapse.
"Onward Christian Soldiers" is a hymn that has been commandeered by many a politician and military man for war. I'm not fond of the hymn. I realize that the hymn has good connotations and was meant as "Soldiers fighting for Christ" by the writer of the hymn, but the warmongers got a hold of the song and used it for their purposes.
Great article. For some reason there is a desire in mankind to destroy what it has built. Look at WWII. The beautiful cities of Europe, Japan, and elsewhere were destroyed. Millions died. For what? Did the aristocrats, bankers, politicians, and military just want to watch it all burn?
Now the cities are rebuilt. The populations have been replenished with new souls. Is it time for the Big Boys to blow it all up again?
Yes! Have you seen San Fransicko lately? I’m a 3rd generation native. I haven’t been in that city for years. I refuse to get near it. My parents and grandparents would sob if they saw it.
San Francisco was a magnificent city, truly! What people see now, is NOT San Francisco. I want to keep my memories of my childhood, and nostalgia.
Renee, My wife and I used to cater in San Francisco. We haven't been there for 15 years or more. We use to love the city. It was fun. The progressives ruined it. They always do.
Renee: I would go to John Foley's Irish house and drink beer and write postcards while my wife went shopping. We'd stay at the Hilton on Union Square. Those were fun days. I also took my parents and grown children to Foley's Irish House. Oh, that was fun. It was on Fleet Week weekend. Great memories.

I don't despair (too much, but sometimes do) of Our positions/endeavors. There is a need for Path Finders, politically, socially, economically, militarily. The Overton Window has shifted for many of us, and me personally since reading Matt Bracken's "Triology" 10 years ago. As Michael Yon has described it's the "Conditions", that set the stage for "Events" to either ignite or smolder.

“The Revolution was effected before the War commenced. The Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people; a change in their religious sentiments of their duties and obligations ... This radical change in the principles, opinions, sentiments, and affections of the people, was the real American Revolution.” John Adams
Are We there Yet??? and Are the options available for Political/Judicial ? or is Military/Insurgent what's remaining?
“If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed;
if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may
come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.” Winston Churchill
PS: I finished reading the J. D. Wilkes trilogy written by T.L. Davis. The books were very entertaining and I read all three books in about 3 weeks. I usually don't read a book that quickly.
I sent the trilogy of books onto my 92-year-old mother in St. Louis. She is an avid reader and told me today that she's enjoying "Shadow Soldier."
Thank you for the comments and I hope your mother likes them. It is odd that they seem to appeal to all ages. The others, Rebel and Rogue, even Deputized is a little darker, a bit more profane, though much less bloody.
T. L. Riveting words. Hat tip.
Thank you.
Stand on their bones? I shall piss on their bones, Sir.
Outstanding writing.
Onward, Christian soldiers!

It’s a true sin of humanity.

I know Timmy! At least I have beautiful memories as a little girl, and growing up in SF. It will never, ever be the same.
Words do not convey the loss of something so close to my soul, and those that were a part of that time in my life.
You get it😉💜.

Mr. Davis,
you have hit on so many concerns that we are facing it is
a wonder we can still enjoy life and have the energy to continue
forward each day.
PS: I finished reading the J. D. Wilkes trilogy written by T.L. Davis. The books were very entertaining and I read all three books in about 3 weeks. I usually don't read a book that quickly.

The trilogy is a fun and interesting read.
