The MoP is pushing “Homeland Defense” as a cooperative construct. Naturally, this means a constant siege mentality. A constant state of victimhood. Meanwhile, part of that defense is that we keep coming up with new reasons to attack – new crimes of our enemy. It’s like Snowball in Animal Farm. If the crops fail, it is he. And this justifies our building up of troops along our enemy’s border. Soon we’ll attack out of “homeland defense”. We will move into the assault despite being told we are “paralyzed with fear”. We will bomb cities while talking in superior tones about the cowardice of attacking civilians. We’ll talk about international standards for our enemy, and then do what we want if the other powers don’t agree with us. This is the Overstate. In the end, we’ll shrug our shoulders and simply annhilate them, and then march through as “liberators”.
