Car bombs. Shootings in schools, cinemas and theatres. Horror clowns. Truck in a Berlin Christmas market. Should this really scare people? Or make someone impressed?
Adults committing coward acts against kids and their values?
Real men do not attack kids.
Real men do not kill prisoners, by cold blood in front of the cameras. That´s just disgusting and do not gather sympathy from any normal person.
Loneyticks find their way to the terrorist squads and should not be a problem to handle by an efficient and organized civilization. Rather, civilizations in plural, as globalization is equal with empire. A good organization starts from 2 persons and turns inefficient and decadent when the number of persons surpass a value that ignore contact, trust and accountability. Any empire, even our Global Democratic is corrupt, unpopular and inefficient by its own, so that´s why terrorism works so easy. And will certainly continue to attack until we change our governmental and judicial systems.
Around the time of 67 AD, the Jews of Judea were in the midst of a major rebellion against the occupying Roman Empire. Riots and violence were commonplace, and an organized rebel force of more than 25,000 men fought regularly against the imperial legions. But the Sicarii, a small group of extremist zealots decided that conventional warfare was not good enough. Therefore, they went to the nearby town of Ein Gedi in modern-day Israel and killed 700 civilians. This was one of the first recorded terror attacks in history. Titus Flavius Josephus, an ancient historian who described this massacre in his book The Jewish War explain that Sicarii committed mass suicide rather than be taken prisoner by the Romans.
Terrorism, radicalism, and fanaticism have existed for thousands of years; there have always been people willing to commit unspeakable acts of violence as a means to achieve their goals. And sadly, though our species has evolved since ancient times, these traits still exist in a dangerous minority. Most of us who don’t have our mental wires crossed can’t understand their belief systems– both ancient and modern-day terrorists alike are not only willing to die, but quite often happy to die for their causes.
Today’s politicians are remarkably ill equipped to deal with this kind of threat. Their solution is to fight violent radicals by forming committees, issuing press releases, and passing piles of legislation. Under Obama the USA has prepared The National Defense Authorization Act of 2017, which consists of over 3,000 pages of rules, regulations, and pet projects. The terrorists makes incisive attacks and government respond with law bombs, which turns our globalized world to a real hell when dropped from the right altitude.
How do these politicians THINK? Do they really THINK. 0r is it just “Duckspeak”?
Do they really believe themselves when they prove a law from some smartass bunch of advisors, do they jump up and scream: HEUREKA ! FINALLY! We are SAFE!!
Just imagine all the terrorists quaking in their boots, petrified of carrying out another act of violence, knowing that administrative leave policy has been refurbished. (Explanation about the word Duckspeak in the end of the article).
The only benefitted by the control systems, mostly originated from the US government will be the tax department in your country. YOU will be more and more controlled and paralyzed by barriers, passwords, declarations and so on. The terrorist will soon change tactics and always be one step forward and probably more evil.
The authorities will and wants to know all about you. In addition, when all money is consolidated in a plastic card – you are under total control by bank and government. Are people really so bad that they deserve this?
I suppose that soon it will not be allowed to talk of this anymore, perhaps not even think. Section 1287 of The National Defense Authorization Act requires that, within 180 days of the bill being signed to law, a new agency called the Global Engagement Center will be created under the State Department. The Global Engagement Center’s job is to combat FAKE NEWS around the world, with sweeping powers to train and fund legions of journalists and bloggers to inundate the world with Western Democratic propaganda.
Politicians have been praising the idea for the Global Engagement Center as a landmark new tool to keep safety. This is total bogus; the governments have had propaganda and psychological warfare resources for centuries. Outlets like Radio Free Europe and Radio Liberty have been in existence since the 1940s; the CIA funded both for decades to combat similar soviet agencies. Who do you think told the truth? Anyone?
In his revision of “Brave New World” from 1958, Aldous Huxley wrote in the chapter “Propaganda in a Democratic Society” about the future (our present): “In their propaganda today’s dictators rely for the most part on repetition, suppression and rationalization – the repetition of catchwords which they wish to be accepted as true, the suppression of facts which they wish to be ignored, the arousal and rationalization of passions which may be used in the interests of the Party or the State. As the art and science of manipulation come to be better understood, the dictators of the future will doubtless learn to combine these techniques with the non-stop distractions which, in the West, are now threatening to drown in a sea of irrelevance”.
Therefore, it is not like it’s anything new for the US to be spreading propaganda. What is new is creating and consolidating a whole lot of new power and authority into a single global office to undermine any INDEPENDENT sources that do not conform to the official narrative.
The Global Engagement Center is the Ministry of Truth.
This does not make you safer. It makes you less free. You can read the parallels in “Admirable New World”, Aldous Huxley’s dystopian novel from 1932.
EXPLICATION: DUCKSPEAK
The goal of most societies should be to increase their vocabulary. However, in Orwell’s book “1984”, the government seeks to destroy more and more words with each new dictionary published, making the population more stupid until one day they are completely brainwashed and with no more identity. “Duckspeak” is an example of the ultimate language destruction. Yes, duckspeak is like it sounds; “to quack like a duck”. Because the word can mean whatever its user desires, it essentially has no meaning. In a math sense, it is like combining a positive 1 and a negative 1; the answer is zero.
