Is This the Nation Our Military Heros Died for?

A Meditation on Memorial Day and the USA

This is a very special Memorial Day.  As we approach the 250th anniversary of this country over the next few years, it might be an appropriate time to stop for a moment, meditate, and think of where we came from… and where we are going as a country.  

The signers of Declaration of Independence were not only “rebels” — they were also the “extremists” and “nationalists” of their day.   Altho comprising only 3% of the colonial population, these “conspirators” did the nearly impossible — they set in motion the founding of the greatest country on Earth which has acted as a beacon for all freedom loving people the world over for the past two and a half centuries.

Now, as our world slowly devolves towards the sickness of Socialism (Communism light), aided and abetted by the blind corruption and greed of our corporate elites and international financiers, for whom market share is more important than human rights, our globe is slowly spinning towards The New Dark Ages, with only the flickering flame from Liberty’s Torch standing in the way of humanity’s total engulfment.

Memorial Day, to those who still know and remember, is the time when we give thanks for the courage, heroism, blood and lives sacrificed for this country so that we may all still enjoy what vestiges of freedom our politicians and political parties have not yet outlawed, diluted, subverted, diminished or curtailed thru various legislative tricks, lies and subterfuges.

As part of this exercise, I strongly encourage you, if possible, to visit a military cemetery sometime… and truly pay your respect to those brave men and women of all faiths, races and nationalities who sacrificed their lives, whose lives were ended in their prime, so that we might still enjoy the tattered remnants of freedom that our politicians, political parties and Big Tech oligarchs have not, as of yet, “deleted.”  

May I also suggest you visit that military cemetery sometime when it is not a national holiday.  Take at least an hour to slowly and contemplatively walk thru the tombstones.  Look at the names, the dates, the places.   Absorb the stillness, the silence.  Think and ponder for a moment about the motivation, the courage, the bravery, the heroism, the sacrifice these people made so that you could still breathe the fresh air of Freedom.  Try your best to hold back a tear, as you realize that all the dreams these valiant warriors once entertained, just as you still do, were cut short and viciously terminated, fighting against those who would have imposed their will and their vengeance upon America and those who love what she truly represents in the hearts of all people around this planet.

Then ask yourself this question:  would these brave men and women have sacrificed their lives so that the oligarchs who rule Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, Apple, Google — and all the other hive minded social media outlets — could censor our freedom of thought and freedom of speech?  Would they have fought as valiantly, knowing that a “cancel culture” would emerge within our society that thinks its just dandy if they can extract an extra pound of flesh by having someone fired from their job because their politics did not align with the hive mind instilled by their Marxist oriented public school programmers?

Would they think it amusing that cretins, soy boys, and keyboard clowns living in their mommies’ basement and hiding anonymously behind their computer screens would feel the intoxicating “virtue” of their “wokeness” by “doxing” someone who dared go against the orthodoxy of their politics du jour so that a crowd of psychopaths could show up outside the homes of their victims and threaten the safety of their families while virtue signaling to each other on their cell phones?

Would they applaud the idea that Facebook asked its millions of members to act as snoops and snitches and “report” any of their friends who may be exhibiting signs of being an “extremist” — whatever the definition Monsieur Zuckerberg might conjure to fit that sobriquet?  Or would they see this as the reincarnation of Gestapo tactics imposed electronically by a totally clueless, bug-eyed trans-humanist who considers Communist Chinese society as a model, something to be aspired to, emulated and imposed upon America?   

Would our brave men and women who now lay dead and buried be in-sync with the idea that social credit scores could be used to control our behavior, our travel, our mobility, our employment opportunities and our lives, just as it is for those currently “living” under the tyranny of the CCP in China?   Would they be pleased to know that this same social credit score system is being prepared for Canada and the United States via the introduction of CBDCs—Central Bank Digital Currencies?

Would those soldiers, sailors, airmen, Wacs, Waves and all the gallant men and women residing under those crosses and headstones have made the ultimate sacrifice just so clueless bozos in The White House could threaten to neuter the 2nd Amendment, after they had effectively throttled the First Amendment guaranteeing Freedom of Speech, by using the red herring of so-called “hate” speech as a reason to censor thought?   

Would they be cool with the concept of having the Federal government twist the power of 17 federal spy agencies illegally against the American people by couching the “necessity” of this betrayal thru a piece of treasonous garbage entitled The P.A.T.R.I.O.T. Acts, I & II”?   Would they celebrate the political treason of 51 prominent members of our “Intelligence” agencies falsely professing that the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop computer had all the hallmarks of Russian disinformation in order to allow Joe Biden to lie his way into the Presidency?

Do you think they would be happy, knowing that the O’Biden-Harris regime wants to promote the concept of non-existent “White Supremacy” as a label that they can pin on their opponents or anyone who did not vote for them?  Or that the “White Supremacist” label would now be pinned on anyone, including people of color, who do not support Biden’s lunatic open-border policy that essentially welcomes terrorists, rapists, murderers, muggers, bio weapons, suitcase nukes, human sex traffickers, drug smugglers, and enemies from around the world to pour through our porous American Southern border?  

Would they think it “inclusive” and “equitable” that we make the fruit of their labor and ultimate sacrifice available to those who violate our borders and our laws?  Would they be pleased to know that Democrat politicians and RINO turncoats claim that we must now support these same people — and their extended families — thru vast welfare schemes unavailable to American citizens while enduring the rampant criminality of MS-13 as it expands its tentacles throughout our nation, as they continue to distribute Chinese made and financed Fentanyl to cripple and kill our youth?

Would they be enthusiastically supportive of a “Progressive” Amerika, a country where their children could now be groomed by professional perverts during Drag Queen Story Hour hosted at their schools?  Would they “celebrate” teachers who ask their children to question their “assigned” sexuality which they are now encouraged to change thru puberty hormone blockers and, in some cases, physical removal of breasts and genitalia?

Something tells me that if these brave men and women had known all this, they just may have paused and turned around before boarding their LST to land on the beaches of Normandy to sacrifice their lives rather than see how our country has devolved at the hands of dogmatic Marxists and their water carriers; and we would all be speaking German, Japanese…  or be dead.

Yet this administration and its globalist social media corporate allies continue to inject the venom of the “woke” virus into our body politic.  The recent nomination and appointment of “woke” social justice warrior Charles Q. Brown as Chairman of our Joint Chiefs of Staff casts a pall on all those remaining in our military who think that merit rather than sex or skin color should be the ultimate determinant of military rank, advancement and promotion to positions of authority and responsibility.  

Does the mantra of “Diversity, Inclusion and Equity” produce a better military?  Or does it just level our military standards to the very lowest common denominator so that the mentally and physically unfit can find a place to hang?

This Memorial Day, I recommend we all pause for a moment and try to invoke the Spirit of our patriotic ancestors.  Read the words of Thomas Paine, George Washington and Thomas Jefferson regarding the Rights of Man, God-given Freedoms, and the proper place of LIMITED government.

Compare and contrast their brilliance to the three ring circus currently playing in Washington, DC, aided and abetted by a lap-dog media that has utterly abrogated its constitutional role as an independent arbiter and purveyor of information.  That once proud people’s guardian of our freedoms and liberties, The American Press, has instead now devolved into a fifth column movement of the Democrat—Progressive—Socialist—Communist caravan, greasing the skids of this country towards a headlong slide into The New Dark Ages.
.
This Memorial Day, we celebrate the memory of all the brave men and women whose lives were savagely cut short so that we could live in freedom with friends, family and loved ones—the freedoms that your Federal Government is moving heaven and Earth to eliminate.   

So the question to you must be this:  how much longer will these freedoms you still enjoy today endure for you and your descendants tomorrow? And what will YOU do, and what are you willing to sacrifice, as our forefathers once did on the beaches of Normandy, to preserve our freedoms and fight the darkness that threatens to engulf America and the rest of this planet for the next century and beyond?
