That's true IMO Chris, re: <<He says that you can tell when war is coming years in advance by looking at what countries spend on "defense".>> Beating the 'war drums' in advance is a call to war. And the beat of the drum is 'one of fear'. Fear of running out of something, fear of being over-run by heathens, etc. Fear is perception and not necessarily real but perception becomes reality after hearing it long and loud enough and the masses fall into line And all this is orchestrated by an out-of-control group that is so driven by extreme ego and avarice that they will do anything to rise to power to control society and attain their goal. :( And so it goes through history. Most people could get along and live peacefully amongst themselves if they were left alone and could 'resist' the contamination of their thoughts and values by a few.. The 'war virus' planted by a few quickly the infects the masses.. Maybe likes rabies and like rabies the ones infected destroy themselves. A person's immune system has to be very strong. c
