The War Upon Us All

More than 60 years ago John F. Kennedy issued a warning about the “monolithic and ruthless conspiracy” that was using “covert means for expanding its sphere of influence.” He also warned us about the “very grave danger that an announced need for increased security will be seized upon” by the perpetrators of this conspiracy to advance their agenda. In 2020, the Covid 19 pandemic offered the would-be conspirators an ideal opportunity. The worldwide emergency enabled them to launch a decisive gambit to sidestep the legal strictures of democratic rule and attempt to create a global authoritarian police state. The experience was hugely distressing to the people in almost every nation, but it was also very revealing about the nature, methods and the objectives of the conspiracy. While the public response to the pandemic was unscientific and contrary to the established norms of public health policy, it was also nearly identical in most nations, suggesting that the incoherence was not an error, but an integral part of the planned policy response.
