Last week my Blog questioned whether the US is a Democracy, a dictatorship, or does she just swing towards those extremes dependent on who is in Government.
That question now has far more relevance in view of what is currently occupying us all the world over.
Overnight, Aussie time, came the news of the details concerning the raid by the FBI on Trump’s Mar-a-Largo, which will probably be the basis of my next Blog, assuming there will be heaps more info released on the matter by then.
WHY DO YOU HATE AMERICA
For more than twenty years, since the time of 9/11, my Spirit Friends have been concentrating most of my Blogs towards the US, it’s future and it’s need to change.
Phrases like ‘shaken out of it’s complacency’, ‘having her nose rubbed in it’ and ‘the US is imploding’ are sprinkled through the majority of Their predictions, delivered through me.
As much as I try to explain to the contrary, over those years, numerous Americans have sent me scathing emails or posts at various sites with the claims that I hate America.
My replies are best summed up in this, in part, reply to one comment posted at Eric’s site towards me:
“I am a friend of Americans and the world’s population. An enemy of the US wouldn’t write as I have done, but instead, would do what many are doing on YouTube, Tic Toc and similar and ripping (your country) to pieces.
America, you are the only ones that can bring change to your nation, and that’s only going to happen when you ALL, not some, voice that ‘not happy with the way things are going’ comment of yours, primarily by voting on mass at every chance you get.
Please get out there and encouraged EVERY AMERICAN to vote at this midterm election and in doing so, maybe make a fool out of me and Spirit Friend’s comments. I’d rather that than what’s coming.”
It is still hard to convey to Americans in general just how much damage their country, in their name, is doing to themselves and the stability of the world in general, because they only see themselves as victims of aggression from other nations.
Very few Americans realise their Government, in their name, and mostly in a clandestine manner, create this hostility. How much damage have other Presidents done to the world? Is Trump the only one who has stepped over the legal line?
How does the average American get to know?
A few nights before I wrote last week’s Blog, I was sitting at my back patio watching my farmer/neighbours firing their thousand of more acres in preparedness for the up coming, and possibly extreme, summer.
Being winter, and quite a cool night, the chances of the burn off getting out of control was extremely slim … until the wind changed direction and intensified the burning.
I watched helplessly as the flames raced towards my bordering fence, and my plastic water storage tanks and pipe lines.
The farmers, very close friends, where there in a flash and the concern was averted, but it bought to mind, had the fire seriously damaged my property and especially had the neighbours not been good friends, what would have been the legal standing I would have been in relating to the cost of the damage.
Was this a premonition of what has happened in the US? The ‘Fire’ that is Trump, has irrevocably burnt, not just the US, but also possibly other nations that have had no recourse against the US because she is not a member of the International Criminal Court.
As an example, how many Americans know the true story concerning Australian Julian Assange, the justification of the charges against him and the facts?
This, in part, from American owned Wikipedia on the matter:
On July 12, 2007, a series of air to ground attacks were conducted by a team of two U.S. AH 64 Apache helicopters in Al Amin Al Thaniyah, New Bagdad, during the Iraqi insurgency which followed the invasion of Iraq.
A video, which Julian Assange’s WikiLeaks titled Collateral Murder, showed the helicopter crew firing on a group of men and killing several of them, then laughing at some of the casualties.
All were civilians, including two Reuters journalists. A U.S. military official confirmed the authenticity of the footage, which provoked global discussion on the legality and morality of the attacks.
The footage was claimed to be classified, however the individual who leaked it, U.S. Army soldier Chelsea Manning, testified in 2013 that the video was not classified.
And I could fill a year of Blogs based on actions taken by different US Governments, in America’s name, over which the American voter has had no say:
“US / Western propaganda always says that the US bombs and invades other countries in order to promote democracy and freedom. They apply brutal sanctions that deprive innocent people of medicines and food. They overthrow other nations’ governments by secretly working with extremists and separatists in those nations and install pro-US regimes. They do this ALL in the name of democracy when the fact is (America) don’t even have one! It’s insanely mind-boggling but, that’s just what propaganda does. It twists logic and reality to the point where words and actions are meaningless.”
America, your enemy is not outside. It is within.
Become active, create unions, form democratic groups, help others to voting centres to vote, especially with this up coming Mid Term election.
Take your country back, before it’s too late.

Pete, you and your Spirit Friends comments are fair and balanced. As you all probably already know, we Americans are “properly indoctrinated”, and have been largely hoodwinked with blinders on. But there are many of us who do not fit in this box. It’s somewhat akin to the acknowledgement of white privilege and colonialism. A lot of people’s worldview would collapse unto itself, so the ignorance as bliss/people staying asleep plays out. As a social workers, what is maddening for most of us is the sickness of the system. But like Noam Chomsky says, the same systems that oppress can liberate.

Thank you Ari, on behalf of my Spirit Friends and myself. The logjam that is currently blocking the ‘river’ of freedoms, truth and a just system within the US is far more serious than having a handful of people in a political party trying to unblock it. And that is the extremely concerning aspect I have addressing. The wars, skirmishes and uprisings that are coming will be devastating for, not just the US, but all the world. Only Americans can change it because only Americans can vote.

Again spot on!
I knew a lot of this stuff. But some I didn’t know. You’re right spotlighting only Trump is not the answer! Other politicians more crooked than him only slicker. Trump has a big mouth you’ll always know what he’s thinking. Biden’s are career politicians and got a slickness about them at least in my opinion.
I love America. I am disappointed at policies and attitudes though. And the truth? It’s like digging through a pile of horse manure looking for a pony!
Thanks Pete! Spot on, spot on

Hi Austin and thank you for your comment.
It is the brainwashing, the ‘America is the greatest’, the ‘we are the world’ propaganda that has got to change, and quickly. No other first world country claims a love for their country like the US does. Most nations question the actions of their Governments far more rigorously than Americans do. America is NOT the greatest, Americans are. However, by dividing the people with racist subtleties, ‘you can but you may not vote’ inferrence means the very powerful in your country will always have their way, no matter which political party Governs, which President is elected or which agenda is promoted.
Democracy is; giving to the majority of people, for the benefit of the majority of people’s best interest, by those elected by the majority of the population.
That is not America. That isn’t even close.
Pete
