This has to be one of the most level-headed articles I have ever read in Foreign Affairs! Stephen Wertheim pens an appeal for a return to real U.S. diplomacy and a scrapping of the neocon/neoliberal, scorched-earth policy for worldwide hegemony (my words, not his). Though I don’t agree with everything in it — especially the…
We are surrounded by occult symbols everywhere. I sometimes wonder if all of humanity isn’t being unknowingly indoctrinated and drafted into a dark occult ritual ceremony.
