Yet I am confounded by the infernal works going on for so long, not only unnoticed but sometimes even applauded by some of the most honest folks around. How does this square with the real work being done in your name, here and abroad?
Speak for yourself, Jim. But I have become ashamed by what is done. Not only in government but also the "private sector" -- that which is usually a siamese twin to government and banking interests. It is a miracle that FR even exists. Frankly, I don't expect such miracles in the future.
Have you really thought about and weighed the costs in relation to where US is today? Does God approve of what has been done in your name and mine?
I empahsize again: this is a GAME and the world is at stake, IMO. When once we had favor, there is no guarantee anymore. Things change. And even if we (US) gain another temprary advantage through the arm of flesh, that is just another weight against US in the long run. I wish it were not so.
