Artikel: 15 redenen voor grote onrust in Amerika
Events are beginning to greatly accelerate, and many believe that the ingredients for a “perfect storm” are starting to come together as we enter the second half of 2018.
Other than the continual drama surrounding the Trump presidency, things have been quite calm for the past couple of years. We have been enjoying a time of peace, safety and relative economic prosperity that a lot of Americans have begun to take for granted. But great trouble has been brewing under the surface, and many are wondering if we are about to reach a major turning point. Our planet is being shaken physically, emotionally and financially, and it isn’t going to take much to push us over the edge. The following are 15 flashpoints which could create world changing events during the 2nd half of 2018…
Artikel: Kan Europa militair zonder Amerika?
Arie Elshout / De Volkskrant
President Trump zal woensdag op de Navo-top in Brussel naar verwachting Europa onder druk zetten om meer te besteden aan defensie. Hij houdt niet van de alliantie en dwingt Europa na te denken over een toekomst zonder de Amerikaanse veiligheidsparaplu. Een gedachtenoefening met verrassende wendingen.
Europa heeft zo lang voor zijn veiligheid op Amerika geleund, kan het wel op eigen benen staan? Is het militair sterk genoeg om zonder Amerikanen een Russische dreiging te weerstaan? Daarover breekt men zich in Europese hoofdsteden het hoofd, zij het niet hardop. Spreek niet openlijk over datgene wat je vreest, anders roep je het over jezelf af, een bekende menselijke reflex.
Maar Donald Trump laat zich niet zo gemakkelijk wegdenken of -wensen. De Populistische Disrupter rukt als een strak geföhnde hoogblonde Simson aan de zuilen van het bestaande. Hij gelooft niet in bondgenootschappen, bevestigde mokkend de Navo-bijstandsverplichting en dreigt Amerikaanse troepen uit Duitsland terug te trekken.

Artikel: Make your life a Declaration of Independence
Daisy Luther / ZeroHedge
A couple of centuries ago, our country’s Founding Fathers wrote and signed a declaration of our independence from another country. They included a bill of the rights that they wished to ensure for their descendants. While not perfect people, by any means, they tried to create a nation of liberty that would go on for centuries to come.
What people seem to be missing is that the Bill of Rights isn’t a list of ‘privileges’ granted to us by gray-haired rich men in the 1700s. We are endowed with natural human rights from the moment we are born. We also bear the responsibility to protect our independence from those who would subjugate us.
Fast forward to our current day. Human ingenuity has come so far in many ways, but at the same time, many have lost that spark of liberty, that sense of compassion, and that pride that urges us to achieve even greater things. There are so many people in our country who are just ready to turn over all control of their lives and wait for a handout.
Our education system has had a great hand in this. These days, many educators are more likely to wax poetic over the joys of socialism than to tempt students to greatness with the benefits of capitalism.And decades of indoctrination is beginning to overcome centuries of liberty-minded ideals.
