Basic principle of human existence: A mighty army of evil is simply not possible.
Every great military force in history stood on the firm conviction that they were a force for good. The argument comes in defining what is good and evil. Those armies most capable of crushing the enemy have always been empowered by the rightness of their cause. Take away that firm belief and your army falls apart.
It works that way even when the troops know for certain their moral vision is not popular. It can be a motivator if the army of fighters feel themselves oppressed by some outside force, seeking to impose a different moral vision. Thus, a part of the esprit de corps could be mocking the victims they crush, celebrating being “evil” as others imagine it. It didn’t change the underlying conviction that they represented the world as it should be. They saw themselves as the tribe or nation that their deities called up to rule on their behalf. It’s nationalism in its purist form.
This is what motivated the American forces in every historical victory. It’s part of the rhetoric that justified the US sticking its nose into everyone’s business throughout the world. And anyone who dared resist was crushed under the boots of our forces. This was the mythology that brought us to our current situation.
What happened? How is that we no longer inspire fear, and that other nations are resisting us?
Globalism is a lie that deceives its own servants. The people who make globalism happen don’t actually believe in it. It’s just a weapon they use to conquer. It is not the end goal in itself, but the path. The people behind globalism actually consider themselves the true Holy Ones who ought to be ruling the whole world. They cooked up and sold globalism to the people they intended to conquer.
Globalism is designed to fail. In order for it to conquer, it must eat away at the vitals of the nationalism that creates strong armies. Thus, every form of moral rot and decay has been injected into the social fabric, to include the military establishment. Today’s American military is quickly rotting from inside. The urgent sense of mission is fading fast. There is no conviction, no myth of promoting righteousness in the world.
It’s not that I’m lamenting the death of American nationalism. The roots of Anglo-America are pagan, so the fruit is pagan, as well. The fake Jesus paint job didn’t change anything that mattered. It’s not worth saving. My point is that whatever America once was, it’s doomed. And that doom is coming very quickly. It’s the natural result of not embracing Biblical Law. God has decreed the destruction of the US. However, the particular path of collapse is largely determined by the fatal influence of globalism.
It may not be the next military engagement, or the one after, but there will be plenty, and they will degrade into impotence. The best strategy for US forces is to look impressive and never engage, or the internal rot will show. Whatever they once were, our military forces are not the good guys now. They don’t even really believe it of themselves. There is no strong moral foundation that takes hold of them. What is being promoted as morality is bullshit, and they know it.
The power and glory is gone.
