Trump Be Wary of War


The primary existential threat to the West no longer comes from the East, from a Russian army crashing through Poland and Deutschland and driving for the Elbe and Fulda Gap. The existential threat to the West comes, instead, from the South. The hundreds of million inhabitants of Northwestern Africa, Middle East and sub-Sahara, whose vast numbers are expanding, are moving unalterably toward the Mediterranean, coming to inhabit the vacant places left by an aged and expiring Europe, whose Jus soli (birthright citizenship) populations progressively decreased as are evidenced by alarming yet reliable stats. Has Trump not stressed, American’s bleeding border is what concerns Americans in the here and now? It is not the borders of Estonia, South Korea, Kuwait or some small man made islands in the South China Sea.

From readily available information, to include reading/watching news worthy media and independent research. I, like many other people venture to wonder about the meaning of this, that or the other, thus I and we speculate. When Trump calls NATO “obsolete,” he is saying (my words not his) that the great threat to the West is not Putin’s recapture of a Crimea that belonged to Russia for 150 years. And if the price of peace is getting out of Russia’s face and Russia’s space, maybe we should think about it and pay it.

Notwithstanding personal opinion, chest beating, and Department Directorates designate edicts, America is not going to force China to vacate the fortified reefs in a South China Sea she claims as her national territory. Stick to that demand, and we best prepare for war.

The imperative of the new era Trump, thereby extension, we are entering is that the great nuclear powers herein mentioned not do to each other what Britain, France and Germany did to each other over a dead archduke, whose name escapes me at present.
