America the Ignorant

I made a mistake today. I looked up the news.

I don't mean I watched the lies and misdirection that mainstream media seems to pour out of its clogged and diseased mouth.

I mean I went to a news source that actually reported what the heck is going on in today's world.

We are seriously the stupidest nation on planet earth. And we are made so by ignorance and arrogance.

We chose, on a regular basis, to be ignorant of what is going on in our own back yards, in our own country. We chose. We give credence to BS like the whole Miley Cyrus debacle. Who cares! She's 20 years old and is going to do what every 20 year old with money does: screw around, screw up, and come back.

There are more important things happening in our world then what's going on in the entertainment industry.

And because we chose, as a country, to be ignorant of what is actually going on, we are arrogant. Our world is about to implode in on itself, and we are arrogant enough to believe that it won't effect us. But it will. So desperately.

This country's leader is about to declare an illegal war. A war that he will enter into without Congressional approval, because he knows he won't get it. This isn't necessarily illegal IF there is a direct threat on OUR OWN SOIL to this nation, or someone else declares war against us. He could be impeached for doing it....but will he?

He's been ripping the Constitution to shreds for the past five years, and no one has done anything yet. No, he won't. He will be allowed to continue on this path. An America will be so caught up in its entertainment, that we won't do anything.

Remember that nuclear power plant in Japan that was in full melt-down after the tidal wave two years ago? We thought they got it under control. Well, we didn't think, we just forgot about it. But guess what? It didn't go away. The Fukushima water plant is leaking hundreds of tons of radioactive water into the Pacific Ocean every day. They just now have asked for help. And no one seems to care!

We are about to ignite a powder keg, and no one seems to notice what's going on. Its not in any headline that I can see in the main stream media. Its an after thought. This. Is. NOT. Ok. Because, guess what? If we go to war with Syria, our entire existence changes. The young men of this country will go to die, fighting a country and a religion that has no remorse and no mercy for its opponents. We will be involved in a Jihad, and we won't even know it.

We will be fighting Russia and China if we fight Syria. We ignite Syria, we ignite the Middle East. We do that, then Europe gets involved. Europe gets involved, Asia gets involved. Welcome to World War Three.

And nobody cares! I don't see protests or anything. No one is talking about it!

At least when we got involved in WWI & WWII, we knew what we were doing. We had all the information at our disposal....well, at least it wasn't all covered up. People actually wanted to know what was going on in the world. They didn't bury their heads in the sand and pretend it wasn't happening.

I had a professor once say that when the media focuses on an inconsequential piece of news, then it was hiding something. This, my friends, is it. We are in for it.

And guess what? We chose it. Congratulations America. We win the prize for most Arrogant country on planet Earth. Miley Cyrus won't be at the top of the news for much longer. When this is, you'll wonder how you didn't see it coming. And this, my friends, is how.
