The Japan's surprise military strike on Pearl Harbor, December 7, 1941, killed 2,402 and wounded 1,282 Americans. Very close to 9/11, nah?
Some believe US President FDR was aware of the imminent attack, but he ordered the US fleet to move from the West Coast to the unsafe Pearl Harbor. Admiral Richardson advised FDR not to issue the order, but FDR removed the bad admiral and replaced him by Admiral Kimmel, who, too, urged FDR to withdraw the order.
You can find articles written in 1970's international publications prophesying the isolation of US and the reshuffling of the world, much earlier than the collapse of USSR and the necessity of little wars here and there. In no time, USA, to please USSR of no tricks, began toppling US allies around the world to be replaced by presiding thugs and thieves.
There is an office in the US State Dept. called Office of Commercial and Business Affairs (CBA) which is tasked to assist and promote U.S. business interests overseas. CBA provides information on overseas market corruption and bribery!
There is sufficient information to the effect that all rulers of the world belong to a single club. Normally, no member of this club is actually punished, hanged or mutilated unless the guy is a rebel. Definitely, when there is a need to remove the errand boys from offices, the club sets up fake demonstrations and sends stunts or doubles on balconies to be seen by people standing far away, while the original bastard is at Bahamas!
Countries, no matter how developed or underdeveloped, both require specific schemes, thesis, antithesis, synthesis, to be fooled or driven toward a desired goal, such as elections or participating in wars or whatever. The ordinary hardworking down-to-earth American citizen who once left his tyrannical home land in pursuit of happiness every now and then needs to be fooled. Since citizens adore lovable angel like 5-10-year old girls, they soon get excited to see someone shooting the children, women, and the elderly. Who really did the killing?
Isolated US must sooner or later get disarmed. However, the truth is that the government forces do not dare approach a house if they suspect someone is armed with even a rusted out pistol. Raiders are not ideologically motivated. They work for wages. They don't want to get killed. Anyway, the day American citizens are disarmed, that day will be the end of their freedom! The forefathers knew that guns in the hands of the citizens deter tyrannical governments. Therefore, they added Amendment II to the US Constitution.
Crimes happen everywhere. Fathers rape their own infants. People get crazy and use kitchen knives to murder their own family members. Everyday people get killed in car accidents. No one recommends the abandonment of making kitchen knives or cars. What's the whole fuss about: Form one world government!
