GEORGE WASHINGTON'S WARNINGS UPDATED

 

America's Revolutionary and Civil Wars were all about Human Rights and Dignity and there was no greater offense to them than slavery. The oppression of the Human Spirit cannot be more transparent than for a Human Being to be the "legal" property of another.

 

The slavers actually believed there was nothing wrong with slavery and were willing to fight a war in which 650,000 Americans died to keep it.

 

In the modern World, Political & Economic and Public corruption and/or organized terrorism have replaced the slavers of old. Don't be fooled, they are even more dangerous.

 

As Edmund Burke once said, "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good Men to do nothing." That is all the International Community has seen from America and Americans.

 

Do Americans really want Public corruption and organized terrorism to triumph? The terrorists have Americans on the run as it stands now.

 

On 19 September 1796, George Washington published his Farewell Address. In it he defended the policies of his Administration while explaining his rationale to finally retire from Public Life. He was 64 years old and would turn 65 just before his second Presidential term expired on 4 March 1797.

 

In the debate during the Constitutional Convention over which he presided, President Washington made it clear that regardless of what form of government the Delegates chose, partisanship and division should be avoided at all costs.

 

Nine years later, President Washington conceded that they had failed to do so and wrote in his Farewell Address, “..the common and continual mischiefs of the spirit of party are sufficient to make it the interest and the duty of a wise people to discourage and restrain it.”

 

President Washington was very disappointed that the new nation had split not only along partisan lines, but regional, ethnic and class lines as well. To this day, the American People have really never lived up to the “United” in the country's name.

 

An anguished President Washington further wrote: “It serves always to distract the public councils and enfeeble the public administration. It agitates the community with ill founded jealousies and false alarms, kindles the animosity of one part against another, foments occasionally riot and insurrection.

 

It appears the First US President is also incredibly clairvoyant. Actually, President Washington was no doubt referencing the Whiskey Rebellion when he wrote about insurrection, but one cannot be distracted from the fact that 44 Presidents down, Donald Trump, was actually impeached by the US House of Representatives for inciting the insurrection at the US Capitol on 6 January 2021. What would my poor Cousin George say about that?

 

And what have the SVC Foreign Writers & Journalists and the International and Private Investigators stated about the foreign influence in the whole matter?

 

They revealed that the only difference between terrorists that hit the United States on 9/11/2001 in New York City and the Pentagon; in Benghazi on 9/11/2012 and the terrorists involved in the 1/6/2021 insurrection at the US Capitol is their nationality.

 

Indeed, President Washington warned about such influence in his Farewell Address: “It opens the door to foreign influence and corruption, which find a facilitated access to the government itself through the channels of party passions. Thus the policy and the will of one country are subjected to the policy and will of another...” or groups like al Qaeda which successfully commandeered power and political control over Afghanistan and then the United States.

 

The American People now face a series of reality checks that no one saw coming because those same powers-that-be would not and could not be square with them.

 

In Malachi 2:2, NIV says: "If you do not listen, and if you do not resolve to honor my name,' says the LORD Almighty, 'I will send a curse on you, and I will curse your blessings. Yes, I have already cursed them, because you have not resolved to honor me."

 

During my original Walk To Emmaus 24 and 25 (Christian Pilgramage) days after my beating by Missoula Police Officer Trowbridge 11 years ago come April 5th (Holy Thursday 2012), Jesus gave me a Biblical passage about how the last days would look be like:

 

“But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God - having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with such people.” (Colossians 3:1-5).

 

Sadly, this is a perfect description of today’s America and particularly the American traitors and terrorists, doesn't? WHAT'S WRONG WITH AMERICA?
