A Godly note of warning of the new fascism

I cam e across this article and it seems to be on point. It's very long and after I was done, well, I think you'd be very afraid too.... Here are some quotes:

GREED, AVARICE AND
THE COMING DICTATORSHIP

"Assuming that these proportions remain the same for 2003, that means that today the REAL jobless rate for the country is 21.14 PERCENT. This means that ONE OUT OF EVERY FIVE workers in this country (not one out of every sixteen as the government contends) is UNEMPLOYED and / or under-employed. THIS IS APPROACHING THIRD-WORLD STATUS (or what used to be Third World status; in recent years, unemployment in the Third World has reached unimagined levels - in some countries, as high as eighty percent). "

"What's that mean to you? IT MEANS THAT SOONER OR LATER YOU TOO WILL PROBABLY BE CAUGHT IN THIS VORTEX OF JOB LOSS - NO MATTER HOW SAFE YOU THINK YOUR JOB MIGHT BE NOW; THAT YOU TOO MIGHT BE SUCKED DOWN INTO THE "PIT," INTO THE ECONOMIC ABYSS OF THE UNEMPLOYED AND THE UNDERCLASS - NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU SQUIRM, AND NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY TO PREVENT IT."

"These are the kind of people (i.e., the "richy riches" of the Republican Party) who say that the expanding joblessness (or under-employment) one PLAINLY sees in this country isn't real, and who callously pass off the growing numbers of unemployed and / or under-employed as nothing more than "ner-do-wells" getting their "just desserts;" people who have lost their jobs because "they did something wrong;" "they didn't plan right;" "they didn't work hard enough," and so forth.

Wow! The cruelty of it all. It's as if stripping workers of their jobs isn't enough; now the elites brand those they have stripped of their jobs as "failures," and "bankrupts;" and eventually - once these workers have slid far enough down the ladder and out of sight - as "drug users," "potheads," "welfare moms," etc.; people who are poor because they DESERVE to be poor; because they have no "work ethic" and lack the requisite "good character" to be "successful." "

"IT IS PRECISELY HERE THAT THE EVANGELICAL CHURCH BECOMES SUCH A USEFUL TOOL IN THE HANDS OF THE ELITES: it helps to divert blame for what's happening from the elites, who are actually the ones really responsible for the joblessness, to the victims themselves. "

THIS "BLAME THE VICTIM" MENTALITY OF AMERICANS IS EXACTLY THE KIND OF MENTALITY THE ELITES WANT (AND, INDEED, EVEN PAY) THE LEADERSHIP OF THE AMERICAN CHURCH TO FOSTER IN THE POPULATIONS THEY HAVE BEEN FLEECING - much in the same way people used to blame women who had been raped as much as they blamed the perpetrators of the rape themselves, and perhaps more so."

The Guardian, writes:

"The United States is no longer just a nation. It is now a religion. Its soldiers have entered Iraq to liberate its people not only from their dictator, their oil and their sovereignty, but also from darkness. As George Bush told his troops on the day he announced victory: 'Wherever you go, you carry a message of hope - a message that is ancient and ever new. In the words of the prophet Isaiah, "To the captives, 'come out', and to those in darkness, 'be free'."

"SO AMERICAN SOLDIERS ARE NO LONGER MERELY TERRESTRIAL COMBATANTS; THEY HAVE BECOME MISSIONARIES. THEY ARE NO LONGER SIMPLY KILLING ENEMIES; THEY ARE CASTING OUT DEMONS ... LIKE ALL THOSE WHO SEND MISSIONARIES ABROAD, THE HIGH PRIESTS OF AMERICA CANNOT CONCEIVE THAT THE INFIDELS MIGHT RESIST THROUGH THEIR OWN FREE WILL; IF THEY RESIST, IF THEY REFUSE TO CONVERT, IT IS THE WORK OF THE DEVIL ... IT IS NOT JUST THAT THE AMERICANS ARE GOD'S CHOSEN PEOPLE; AMERICA ITSELF IS NOW PERCEIVED AS A DIVINE PROJECT ..."

"SO THOSE WHO QUESTION GEORGE BUSH ... ARE NO LONGER MERELY CRITICS; THEY ARE BLASPHEMERS ... (AND) THOSE FOREIGN STATES WHICH SEEK TO CHANGE THIS POLICY ARE WASTING THEIR TIME; YOU CAN NEGOTIATE WITH POLITICIANS; YOU CANNOT NEGOTIATE WITH PRIESTS. THE U.S. HAS A DIVINE MISSION, AS BUSH SUGGESTED IN JANUARY: 'TO DEFEND ... THE HOPES OF MANKIND', AND WOE BETIDE THOSE WHO HOPE FOR SOMETHING OTHER THAN THE AMERICAN WAY OF LIFE."

Not for me because I've already served my time, I'm beyond drafting age & volunteering age.

They'd probably lump me into the "broken down old fogey" category & say that I haven't "taken advantage of any available opportunities."
