This is War
American Thinker ^ | 24 Nov, 2020 | J. Robert Smith

Posted on 11/24/2020 4:17:00 AM PST by MtnClimber

We are at war with enemies of liberty, domestic and foreign. Domestic enemies are now pressing relentlessly. Why shrink from the word “enemy,” the simple definition of which is “one seeking to injure, overthrow, or confound an opponent.” Who other are these warmakers?

This war is much more than disputes over fraudulent elections, though that would be cause enough. The Democratic Party is a means. The new war has been imagined, developed, and phased in over decades by the left. It’s unconventional, asymmetric, and cunning. It’s insidious, and has been about stealth and infiltration more so than outright confrontation -- until this year, when state shutdowns have been imposed to test the limits of tyranny… to gauge the level of tolerance of unconstitutional centralized rule over a free people. Targeted violence has been employed in cities to engender angst, a sense of helplessness, and, consequently, to demoralize us.

The left’s warfare -- underwritten by coastal plutocrats, chiefly -- is comprehensive. The target now are our politics. The aim is to capture our national and state governments. Dominating the means of government nearly ensures its ends, which have nothing to do with our freedoms. Capturing governments is an endpoint -- the crowning achievement in the left’s long march.

The leftist thought leaders like Alinsky and Cloward & Piven have long said that you cannot build the new system until you have torn down the old one.

The enemy is a cruel and vicious ideology.

The enemy is the old enemy — the egotistical one, the jealous one, the cast out one, the butt-hurt one, the great deceiver.

These people are his greedy, power-hungry, virtueless minions. Minions of Lucifer/Satan.

The enemy has weaknesses, which people who desire freedom will uncover and exploit. It won’t be fast or easy, but freedom will prevail.

75 million voting Americans are remembering this. Election fraud is never OK regardless of what the justice department chooses to investigate.

Forgive me as I was a HS Latin teacher formerly.
“Enemy” comes to us through the old french from L. inimicus which is from un - amicus which means simply “not friend”.

The big problem that I see is that our side will not fight effectively. I hope through all this trouble we will wake up to the reality we face.

The whole one man, one vote notion is blown. Corruption, dishonesty and oppression by communists threatens America.
