I think the comment "the veneer of civilization is much thinner than people think" is most appropriate. I often think I'm living within a house of cards. I think the only thing holding the world together is cheap oil. The expanding debt was part of what I thought was holding civilization together, and now that is deflating. James Burke wrote a book and did a TV show in the 70s about what would happen if there was a collapse -- earthquake, war, whatever. That was a technological breakdown. I don't recall if he dealt with the social breakdown which would likely follow. Then there's Lord of the Flies. Sure, they were just boys. But then, don't boys run nearly the entire planet at nearly every level? The book was fiction; but within that fiction is a very uncomfortable reality.

this whole jew thing is so weird. most jews in the world today are middle class or working class. period. just like anywhere else demographically. the notion otherwise is beyond absurd. however, for the most part, should it come down to some new pogram for this age, the germans will have their hands clean along with most of europe. why? they already killed all of theirs. they can nobly proclaim the rest of the world as savage. ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!!! end of story. europe will go after turks, russian germans, north africans, and such this time around, while england will do the same and hang a few from the house of lords as usual.

o ye of little faith, who watches movies and reports...but thinks the content untrue and hence has no qualms in reporting about it. Ye who never undertakes to plug into that which is only viewed as imagination....speak now, as your proposal is exposed. petty self interest even though proffered from high ground...reverts to the mean... broken promises? which one...? Many, and until you know where it started, the breaking of the pact, your end, is nothing but justification of your means... pity...those who steadfastly promote, agenda...as contrivance.
