     What will happen and why...  | 
  
  
    |   | 
    
     
     Severe 
    and sudden necessity will cause acute change. Such changes will probably 
    cause deep regret down the line of time. Procedural patterns established 
    through necessity and paranoia will cause an epidemic of horror in future 
    years.  
    
    Big 
    Brother has indeed come to town - just a few years later than George Orwell 
    had predicted. I think it was, in part, because of George Orwell's book 
    "1984" that this has been delayed.  |

    The majority is seldom right. Mass impulses under 
    an emotional stimulus will make unreasoning decisions  | 
  
  
     
    
    Something Dark and 
    Devious this way comes...
    
      - 
      
      
      Sacrifice of liberty of thought 
      and lifestyle. 
      Surveillance, a quagmire of 'clearances', financial controls for the man 
      on the street, religious acknowledgement put into databases centrally 
      controlled, promotion of unifying Christianity (the standardization of 
      Christianity will cause religious persecution). Danger and threat will be 
      sufficient to allow this to happen.  
      - 
      
      
      The greed factor.
      
      Instead of concentrating 
      on the examination of individuals and immigration refusal based on 
      character and background checks authorities will continue to allow the 
      rich and the bad to establish roots and develop like weeds within the 
      culture of America.

    The current enemy: 
     
    
    
    Things 
    have changed. The old and ingrained Arabic ways have, through influence of 
    protestant Christianity's bounty, gained new power of medicine, technology 
    and modern warfare.  (thoughts 
    on Muslimism)

     What prepared the soil for what is to

     Some thoughts: 
    
        | 
       
      The fact 
      that America has a history of bombing shifty countries and not completing 
      the job.  |  
     
      
    
        | 
       
      A history of 
      broken promises and forming alliances with people for a little while 
      whilst promising a forever alliance and then dropping those allies when 
      national tides turn or economic self-interest has been served - rather 
      like the scorpion and the turtle crossing the river.  |  
     
      
    
        | 
       
      Americans 
      get bored very quickly (I hear my mother's voice, 'don't generalize - 
      it's a sign of ignorance'). Instant availability and instant gratification has 
      taken the place of diligence, endurance and life-long commitment. TV 
      stations compete for ratings. The media giants want to be #1 and it does not 
      seem to matter if the edges of truth are blurred by sensationalism and the 
      public's notoriously short attention span. Such actions of the news giants 
      is justified by saying that in order to get the news, report on the news 
      it takes being number one. Self consolation belief that they are 'actually 
      doing the right thing' by at least being there to record the moment.

      It is not 
      necessary to make excessive profits, making enough should be enough. That 
      way you are fed but not fat, not able to blackmailed by poverty, greed or 
      fear. That is what it should be about. Smaller news with big facts and 
      'human' reporters - not carrion eaters.  |  
     
      
    
        | 
       
      Excessive 
      greed takes precedence over right and wrong in the higher echelons of 
      society. Good roots of gratitude and freedom are forgotten. This has paved 
      the way for all sorts of 'shifty's' and cockroach persona to gain roots in 
      America (e.g. the Saudi Prince who owns huge chunks of New York and 
      monitors his assets via camera and satellite from Rio) The average 
      American's infatuation with those who have excessive wealth or stardust is 
      doing a disservice to himself and his ancestors who gave up all in order 
      to be free  |

    The inaccurate perception that everybody who falls in 
    any line of anything- war, car accidents, food poisoning is an 'innocent' 
    victim.   | 
  
  
    | 
     
    One can be an 'unintended' or 'unexpected'  
    victim but never innocent - unless of course it is a baby or animal.

    We have  been raised in the west to regard the 'un-innocent' 
    as warrior to warrior, racecar driver to racecar driver, football player to 
    football player  |
