No longer the “United” States
Yes, it is right to fear the “foes” we now have overseas, that are playing havoc to the populations of Syria and Europe. Having said that, there is something else we all should fear as well, the political, economic and social confusion now going on in the U.S.A., which is a misnomer of the highest order.
This nation is now in a state of mass confusion as was the German nation in the late 1920s and 1930s. Please read the history books of that time in world history and you will see and understand of what I say and write here. Our enemy today is a group of people who are out to do all they can and are doing it to make the U.S. population to “fear” to the point of causing dis-unity in our population.
Look at our political situation we now are going through. This group is trying with all their might to make the U.S. go into a civil war. If that did happen, the U.S. will then be very ripe to be invaded by some group out to build and empire the world over. It might not be a Muslim country. It could be a nation like China and Russia — both of which would like to build an empire of their own. Here again, read the history books.
Whether we like or not, the U.S.A. is now an aging empire. We are now most likely have spent our nation into a poverty because of our nation building in foreign countries. The wars of Iraq are Afghanistan are a good example! Nuff said, I hope.
