To: Alas Babylon!
Being on vacation and picking thru a library of books not read in some time I reread FROM UNDER THE RUBBLE, by Alexander Solzhenitsyn and six dissident colleagues . Each provided an essay, translated from Russian, which touches on some aspect of what is now in full view for all Americans to see as the transformation of our Republic into a socialist, communist government. The book was released in 1974 and the age of the writers range from Solzhenitsyn 1918 to 1945. These men lived the history our country is now repeating. Fascinating reading, especially the essay by Igor Shafarevich titled SOCIALISM IN OUR PAST AND FUTURE.

One paragraph ends with ...Communists can state their theory in one proposition:the destruction of private property. The final sentence is, "Mankind is being opposed by a powerful force which threatens its very existence and at the same time paralyzes its most reliable tool---reason" The blatant and unceasing lies of this Obama administration torture reason on any level and seem to paralyze all logic and common sense of a large part of the US population and too many of their elected leaders.

Good stuff! That’s what is happening as well. Reason-logic are all discarded in the world of val/jar-ozero.
