Seven Important Videos from the Last 48 Hours
These videos are from 15 minutes to 80 minutes long. Why am I sending them—because we really are seriously dangerous times, and the mainstream media is not giving the American people an accurate or complete enough understanding of the situation. Their coverage is, in fact, minimal. A substantial majority of the mainstream media seem to be presenting an orchestrated propaganda campaign. This includes those with both conservative and liberal reputations. Many media agents seem to have an appallingly shallow knowledge of the background and history of the situations and are unaware that they as well as the public are being propagandized to facilitate highly questionable political agendas and war.
The contributors selected below represent a common theme of preventing rather than promoting war but differ among themselves in perspective, details, and nuances. I personally respect all these selected contributors and generally agree with most of their observations and concerns. I have my own nuances, but my greatest concern is that we are being orchestrated into wars of questionable moral, political, and military wisdom and risking horrendous consequences.
Sun Tsu, von Causewitz, and the Bible warn against two simple but common reasons for losing battles and wars:
Underestimating your enemy and overestimating your own capabilities.
Both of these are related to a common human failing: hubris or arrogant pride.
"Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall" (Proverbs 16:18)
is a biblical proverb warning that arrogance and overconfidence lead to downfall.
“They sow the wind and reap the whirlwind.”—Hosea 8:7.
