The Existential Threat of Our Time

by Stephen Lendman

Without question, these are the most perilous times in world history.

The growing threat of World War III, maybe already begun, is arguably the existential threat of all time because the risk of things going nuclear is ominously real.

Hegemon USA is more monster than nation state.

Both wings of its neocon-infested war party share blame.

Power-crazed lunatics run the Washington asylum.

Mind-manipulated by duplicitous politicians and their MSM press agents, the vast majority of Americans comprise a nation of out-of-touch-with reality morons.

Because schools no longer teach, indoctrinating students instead, an educated citizenry doesn't exist, what Jefferson called "a vital requisite for our survival as a free people."

Madison warned that "a popular government, without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a prologue to a farce…a tragedy, or, perhaps both."

Public ignorance is an instrument of control.

A nation of morons lets the nation's dominant criminal class get away with mass-murder at home by kill shots and worldwide by forever wars on invented enemies.

Distracted by mind-manipulating bread and circuses, the vast majority of Americans are ignorant about the existential threat of our time.

Driven by megalomaniacal aims, the empire of lies, run by its criminal class, and its Western vassals are at war on Russia, humanity's fate hanging in the balance.

Yet the myth of American exceptionalism, the indispensable state, an illusory moral superiority, and military supremacy persist despite indisputable evidence debunking these fanciful notions.

At the height of its power and preeminence post-WW II, what no longer exists, a future epitaph might attribute its decline and fall to unbridled imperial arrogance, hubris, its endless wars against invented enemies, and unwillingness to change.

The existential threat of our time is that its dominant criminal class may destroy planet earth and all its life forms in a futile attempt to control the world community of nations, their resources and populations.

During the Cold War years, hegemon USA got along with Soviet Russia, even if uneasily at times. Nixon went to China.

Today relations with both countries are more dismal and dangerous than any previous time, making possible nuclear war ominously real by accident or design.

And MSM were bribed with big bucks to support and promote hegemon USA's war on humanity at home and worldwide.

Looking ahead to a new year, there's nothing to be positive about at a time of growing homeland tyranny and ominous risk of full-scale war on Russia going nuclear.

What's going on isn't about Ukraine.

It's about the growing risk of neocon-run USA's threat to humanity's survival in pursuit of its power-crazed aims.

And that makes the risk of its dominant criminal class killing us all ominously real.

Yet the vast majority of Americans are too mind-manipulated to understand the ominous reality of our time. 

A Final Comment

A previous article discussed the US-based Mozart Group, a private military company involved in training Ukrainian troops.

The group's head, retired US Marine colonel Andrew Milburn, admitted the following:

Nazi-infested Ukraine is a "corrupt, f…ed up society (run by) f…ed up people."

Ukrainian troops commit "all kinds of atrocities (and) kill dudes who surrendered."

Because of massive battlefield losses, new conscripts are deployed to front line positions with little or no training as expendable cannon fodder.

Many never fired a weapon.

And they're given drugs to numb them into compliance.

Hegemon USA-dominated NATO regimes don't give a damn about the rights and well-being of Ukrainians — or their own people.

They're used and abused to advance their imperial aims — no matter the human cost.

That's the reality of more monster than nation-state USA and its NATO vassals — in bed with the devil in pursuit of their diabolical aims.

The nation I grew up in long ago is humanity's greatest threat.

Yet the vast majority of Americans are too brainwashed to understand the reality of our time.
