DAVID AND GOLIATH

 

It seems appropriate that our children visited Michelangelo’s marble statue of David yesterday…(from the hotel where they’re staying…David was just a stone’s throw away.)

 

Everything the Israelites had…the philistines wanted to obtain…it’s a lot like what is happening today…With Russia and Ukraine.

 

But they fought their war a little differently back then…if we are to believe the scriptural writing…each side sent out their strongest warrior…and he would do the fighting.

 

The philistines sent out Goliath…the preeminent warmonger…confident that in all the world…there was no warrior stronger.

 

For 40 days Goliath taunted the Israelites…for he knew…and they knew he was much too strong…until a young boy with a sling and five stones…his name was David…came along.

 

The culmination of the story is certainly well known …David slew Goliath…brought him down with just one stone.

 

David was not supposed to win that battle…everyone, except David, was convinced…giving hope to every underdog whose faced a mightier opponent since.

 

Proving the amount of size and strength a person has…although an important part…is not as important as the size and strength of the courage in one’s heart.

 

My prayers are with you…the people of Ukraine…in the midst of a battle unlike any battle you have ever seen…as you…the modern day David…face off against the stronger Russian philistine.

 

As you come face-to-face with your giant… may the courage in your heart never stray…and just like David may you win your battle in an unusual and surprising way.

 

So one day when my children visit Ukraine…as I have no doubt they will do

they will seek out the landmarks of your great country…

and stand in awe in front of a marble stature 

sculpted to look like you.

Always Two Sides of a Coin

They say, the first casualty of war – is Truth.

 

It is a good thing to keep in mind, so not to be swept up in propaganda. And that goes for both sides of any conflict.

 

And too, it’s always good to know a bit of background.

And is it coincidence, that we have this new war diversion – while the Pfizer Data is being released?

Yes, the truth about the

Yes, the truth about the situation in Ukraine is much, much more complex than we're being told by our corporate-state merged television and print media. The coup in 2014 was so brushed-over in western media, particular in North America, that most people have no idea it happened, nor that it was all caused by the sudden ability to tap into previously unreachable natural gas deposits in Ukraine. Instantly, the US and NATO tried to move in from one end, and the Russians from the other. That's what this is about, as much as anything. It has nothing to do with caring about the lives of Ukrainians, who have been pawns in this game, even from their own government, which is entirely corrupted like virtually every other government in the world.

The Big Trouble of History

The trouble is, most people don’t even remember what happened yesterday.

 

 

That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons that history has to teach.” Aldous Huxley


Military men are just dumb, stupid animals to be used as pawns in foreign policy.” Henry Kissinger

This was a major part of the plot in Nineteen Eighty Four. The leadership had figured out that, if people were constantly inundated with new emergencies, there would be no past. It seems that it has come to pass in the real world, too.

Spot On Mate

Spot on mate…

 

“Oceania was at war with Eastasia: Oceania had always been at war with
Eastasia. A large part of the political literature of five years was now
completely obsolete. Reports and records of all kinds, newspapers, books,
pamphlets, films, sound-tracks, photographs--all had to be rectified at
lightning speed. Although no directive was ever issued, it was known that
the chiefs of the Department intended that within one week no reference
to the war with Eurasia, or the alliance with Eastasia, should remain in
existence anywhere.”

 

Same sort of shit we hear, pumped down our throats in the media today.

 

Fear Porn, Fear Porn, Fear Porn.

 

Trade you liberties – for security… more fear porn, fear porn, fear porn.

 

Till finally, they’ve got you trapped in a cage with no escape.

 

A true return to feudalism – where you have no power, and no possessions.

 

You will own nothing and be happy – world economic forum – the great reset

Farenheit 451

..also hit on this quite well.

 

Society, itself, ultimately willingly participates in it's own censorship and erasure of the past. We are seeing this, as well.

Fahrenheit 451 – how did I miss this one?


I just did a bit of preliminary research, and it’s going straight to my reading list.


Cheers for that.
