America adrift
It is only a matter of time before the people of the United States
realize that they have made a grievous mistake. They have reinstated,
albeit with the aid of many stolen votes, a man and administration
dedicated to the creation of division and hatred, both nationally and
internationally.
They will ruefully watch an attack on their proudly held freedoms;
they will see a steep decline in their standard of living as the
government, of necessity, strives to tackle their enormous debts; they
will witness a loss of confidence in their currency and a sharp
reversal of trade with their traditional trading partners. The
calamitous invasion of Iraq will continue to fester, both in Iraq and
elsewhere in the world. Reacting to the fear and hatred which this
administration has engendered almost universally, the tendency will be
for the people to look inwards, and to turn their backs even more
squarely on the world.
Illusion
A major problem in dealing with this administration is the powerful
illusion under which it works: that it is God-inspired and so in
divine Grace, helping to restore the Christian world and message to
its former power and glory. Thus has the USA taken a huge step
backwards, isolating itself from the true concerns of much of the
world: environmental pollution and the demands of a planet suffering
under the strain of impending disaster.
The United States will find that the world will not stand still. With
or without American co-operation the nations will proceed as best they
can to deal with the many ecological and social problems which beset
us, and which so urgently must be addressed. America will find itself
left behind and ignored...
