Life Matters, August 25, 2021
In the midst of the withdrawing from Afghanistan debacle, the President of the United States stood before the American people via screen for his second press conference since final withdrawing began and we near the 20th anniversary of 9/11/2001, the infamous day that saw the collapse of Twin Towers in New York City.
The symbolism of 9/11/2021 was not lost on the President and he seems to have determined to be the icon standing before the American people announcing the end of the two decades long American military presence in Afghanistan. A presence being an attempt to keep that predominantly Muslim country from again being overrun and becoming a haven for terrorist organizations threatening the stability of the free world.
Osama bin Laden was gone, Al Qaeda suppressed, and the Taliban—the threat—was being kept at bay. President Trump had begun a conditions-based withdrawal out of Afghanistan during his tenure. Rather than keep that conditions-based plan began by Team Trump, Team Biden adopted a date deadline of 9/11/2021. Symbolism became the desired target and, until it became impossible, the signs of ensuing chaos ignored. The desire to ignore the problem was underscored at the above mentioned press conference, as the President stood before the American people and talked about … you guessed it … COVID.
At his first press conference on Afghanistan, almost a week after the Taliban advance begin, the President did talk to the press about the fall of Afghanistan. Or rather, he read the script from a teleprompter then left without taking any questions. Then we were shown that the last two words on his teleprompter, highlighted in color, were “Leave Now.” He has defended every move he made concerning the withdrawal and insisted to Stephanopoulos that there was nothing he could’ve done different to avoid the chaos. Despite insisting in July that the withdrawal could and would go smoothly. And despite having rejected Trump’s conditions-based withdrawal plan.
At the above mentioned second press conference (where he, again, took no questions) the President pushed shots, booster shots, and took the opportunity to target the State Governors who took a stand against mask mandates for school children, leaving that decision to the parents. Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, was shown telling Canadians that his goal is for businesses, stores, restaurants, airports, etc. to require proof of vaccination before being allowed admittance. But, he assured us, it wouldn’t be forced as we are a free society, a democracy, and it will be up to each one of us, a decision that will be an individual choice that everyone will need to make for themselves. The threat was so covert that I asked myself, “Did I just hear that or didn’t I?“ But yes, it was confirmed, I did.
From the perspective of a country‘s leader leading with the good of his country uppermost in his mind versus the political decisions made on January 20, 2021, and continuing, the antithesis of the two are enough to give one mental vertigo.
Until one accepts that the signs point to a desire to destroy. Until one accepts the possibility that our President might be compromised to a U.S. enemy. Is he being blackmailed? I don’t know, and please, this is not a judgment call. But I am saying, as my thoughts process the information, it is the only window through which the whirlwind of confusion clears up, the only perception that clears up the mental vertigo caused by trying to make sense of these political maneuverings. Donald J. Trump‘s “mean tweets“ at least made sense. No one doubted his “America First“ policy.
And there is no doubt left that implanted microchips are a technological invention that some wish to bring all into bondage with. And there is no doubt left that the warning to mankind in Revelation Chapter 13 is now a practical possibility. The possibility of a Ruler ruling the world with the power of finance. The love of money is still the root of all evil. (I Timothy 6:10) WW III seems to be advancing upon us and the enemy’s weapons are emerging from the vertigo; Cancel Truth. Cancel the Truth-bearers.
Let us always remember that Jesus is the victor. He has won the war in heaven. It is over. The battle is still raging here, but while the devil goes about as a roaring lion he knows that he hath but a short time. (I Peter 5:8) The battle rages on, but the victory is sure. Truth will never pass away! (Mark 13:31) Life Matters!
