That's how it goes when war is only good business for the ones who is good at creating it.

Too true, whatever. And it's good to see young people of military age wising up so quickly.

A citizen's patriotism has nothing to do with the current military recruitment malaise in the west.

On the contrary, it has everything to do with the very simple understanding that is beginning to dawn on ordinary humanity across virtually all nations.

Yes, there are exceptions for example Russia. It has little issue with maintaining military readiness because every citizen in the country knows beyond a shadow of a doubt, if Russia is not fully prepared to rebuff and repel outside aggression from the global plutocracy / kleptocracy, then it means literally the death of every Russian at the hand of west as well as the theft / confiscation of every shred of wealth / assets / natural capital that exists within the borders of Russia. Brings clarity to the mind to know your extinction hangs in the balance with those that wish to kill you and subjugate you.

Citizenry in the west on the other hand, they are beginning to awaken to these simple truths:

1- The government / plutocracy exist to subjugate you, control you, steal from you, imprison you at will.

2- The government / plutocracy lies to you with impunity and does not give a damn whether you know that or not.

3- You and your family will die and be impoverished at the whim and directive of evil / corrupt / people of absolute debauchery, simply because they can do this to you. For those in power, death is merely an entertainment... a sport no more consequential than chuckles at the club over a rare whiskey and cigar among brethren... or no more consequential than the latest soiree or afternoon tea party in the garden among the chattering class, swilling delicious champagne.

The commoner is but cattle, a bovine to be slaughtered or a sheep to be shorn. The elites you must understand... the elites know what's best for you and why you exist to serve them.

Just ask them, they will happily educate you as to your place in the world.

Good point, John. Military contractors were a lot more keen to go to Iraq and Afghanistan when the US upped the pay to $1,000 a day.

Let the war mongers (mostly old men and women) fight each other and leave the young people to have a life.

Reminds me of the Malvina Reynolds song we sang when I was young:

Last night I had a lovely dream.

I saw a big parade with ticker tape galore,

And men were marching there

The like I'd never seen before.

Oh the bankers and the diplomats are going in the army.

Oh happy day! I'd give my pay to see them on parade,

Their paunches at attention and their striped pants at ease.

They've gotten patriotic and they're going overseas.

We'll have to do the best we can and bravely carry on,

So we'll just keep the laddies1 here to manage while they're gone.

Chorus:

Oh, oh, we hate to see them go,

The gentlemen of distinction in the army.

The bankers and the diplomats are going in the army,

It seemed too bad to keep them from the wars they love to plan.

We're all of us contented that they'll fight a dandy war,

They don't need propaganda, they know what they're fighting for.

They'll march away with dignity and in the best of form,

And we'll just keep the laddies here to keep the lassies1 warm.

(Chorus)

The bankers and the diplomats are going in the army,

We're going to make things easy cause it's all so new and strange;

We'll give them silver shovels when they have to dig a hole,

And they can sing in harmony when answering the roll,

They'll eat their old K-rations from a hand-embroidered box,

And when they die, we'll bring them home, and bury them in Fort Knox.

That is so excellent! Thank you!

And it proves that history repeats itself - but obviously someone kept that excellent song hidden otherwise billions of us would be singing it!

I am keeping the lyrics and will practice!

Gladiatorial matches fought to the death with butter knives to prolong our entertainment and their agony. I can't wait to see Nimarata ("Nicky") Haley go at it with Kamala Harris. How about Emmanuel Macron Vs Justin Trudeau?

Hmm. Butter knives, you say, Jack. Very intriguing the way your mind works.

I like the way you think!

So many gladiators to choose from!

I shall keep those gladitorial images in mind whenever they come forth and pretend they are significant orators. lol!

Need to have time limits on these entertainments Jack.

Don't have all day to be bored watching. They need to complete their activities in 30 minutes or the arena is liquidated, err.. I mean 'cleared' for the next contestants.

Well King you sound like just the man to run the new games.

Thanks Jack :-)

Just an old farm kid history student that believes in equal application / enthusiasm of consequences for actions that are / were injurious to the innocent.

They want defenseless white nations for the coming race war, most likely muslim vs christian?

From my perspective, An, the oligarchs trying to engineer a Muslim/Christian race war ever since their Venetian ancestors launched the Crusades in 1095. Now that Saudi Arabia has reconciled with Syria, Iraq and Iran and applied for membership BRICS, I think the multipolar alliance will prevail and the white nations will be too busy trying to feed themselves and stay warm to take the bate.

Possible, but we have a major mass immigration of Islamists issue there, I think the conflict between Israel and Palestine could be one of the triggers as well.

Seeing the leftists going pro Palestine makes me wonder what the bigger plan is here.
