Theory of Violence and it’s practical necessity for Christianity.
Thirteen thousand US Army Troops invaded Russia in a century ago and engaged 
Bolshevik forces in Russia’s civil war — regime change before it was a thing.
This is not fake news. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allied_intervention_in_the_Russian_Civil_War
Russia has not forgotten; a Russian may reasonably suspect that NATO is looking for a repeat.
NATO leaders have called for regime change, crimes against humanity tribunals, seized Russian finances, voted to for $40 Billion in arms for the Ukraine. Mr Biden has called Putin ‘a “killer,” a “murderous dictator,” a “pure thug,” a “butcher,” a “war criminal,” guilty of “genocide,” who “for God’s sake … cannot remain in power.”
What is a Russian to think of this?
Here’s another thought about War: soldiers do not accept mass mobilization in order to advance the communist revolution, nor to “save the world for democracy.” The Russians could not motivate their countrymen to die for the “workers of the world” in WW2. So, they resurrected the Russian nationalism and re-branded the conflict as the “Great Patriotic War.” It worked.
The Chinese have not made this mistake — they are rabid nationalists inspiring loyalty to race and blood. Only fools are seduced into the delusion that “we are all one people.” The Chinese bypassed Russia’s short-lived illusion while Americans wallow in it.
The Left demonizes Whites, and legacy Christianity, as “threats to democracy.” Traditional Americans are enemies, “domestic violent extremists,” as they labor to “fundamentally remake” America.
Who’s going to fight in the next World War? Fight for what?
These are tenets of the Left’s religion, not ours. It will be too late to make a call to traditional Americans to defend a regime that hates them.
Democrat governors like Newsom and Mayors like Lightfoot will call for United Nations intervention inside the United States to suppress “Nazis.”
Mark my words, this will happen.
Hell on earth is coming to America.

Former Intelligence Officer Gloria Pendragon, and Professor Tomas Klimacek, Professor of National Security Studies at Saint Anne’s University in Glasgow, Scotland, appeared on MPR to discuss Fifth Generation Warfare.
Pendragon: Here is Fifth Generation Warfare — you create a problem. You create a solution. You create opposition to the solution. Since you created the opposition, or co-opted the opposition, you use them. An insider, say, or a whistleblower, comes out with a story about how the opposition is controlled, and voila, no one knows who to trust. It works every time, especially with a controlled press. We just brought it home to the U.S.A.”
MPR: Why would you tell us this? Are you controlled opposition?
Pendragon: Exactly. You cannot know. So what do you do? What can you do?
MPR: Professor Klimacek, your thoughts on Fifth Generation Warfare?
Klimacek: This is how it works. You screw with their heads so much no one knows who to trust and the opposition just fades away, or better yet, goes after each other.
MPR: Is there a risk of undermining our institutions? Our democracy?
Klimacek: That’s the point — you don’t want them to trust. You want them to be afraid and not trust any leader. That leaves only one trusted source — whoever is in power.
MPR: Are you for or against this type of social control?
Klimacek: Neither.I’m just telling you how it works. And because you cannot know how it works, you are trapped because you can’t trust anyone. So it doesn’t even matter when people say “the government lies,” because if the government lies and your professors lie, and your politicians and preachers and parents lie . . . You are kind of helpless. Which is the point.”
MPR: Is there anything that can be done to get around this trap?
Klimacek: It our culture, in the advanced western diverse and secular culture? Not really. I mean, the twentieth century say some pretty horrific dictators — that would be a most unwelcome solution.
Less advanced societies can resist this, those who have direct blood allegiances and a strong core of beliefs. This is why we could never civilize or democratize the Afghanis. Their tribal structure — based on race and kinship — was virtually impenetrable. Layered with this was their fath in Islam. All of our modern conditioning techniques failed to pierce that cultural shield.
MPR: What do you see for the future?
Klimacek: It is hard to say. Are the people of the future content to live this way? My gut says ‘yes,’ as long as they are comfortable — bread and circuses, the old Romans would say. But in economic collapse? Not so much.
MPR: What would that look like?
Klimacek: Well, as always, it is a resort to blood and tradition, kinship and faith. The secular liberal order has nothing to offer other than materialism. Once that goes away, people will be forced into more organic forms of social organization just to survive, forms that have withstood the test of time. At the core of it, people have to trust others in order to survive in the pre-modern world. The modern world designed a system that obviates trust and replaces it with things. Once things go away, people will be forced to find those they can trust again, and that will mean a return to blood, and faith. Your race, your language, your land, your gods, etc. All pre-modern tools of survival. The tribes that have that core will survive. Those that don’t, won’t.
MPR: Thank you, Professor Klimacek.
Klimacek: Thank you for having me on.
Samson: A Partisan and a Guerrilla from Judges 13-16
Wars may begin by miscalculation and misunderstanding. Civil wars, too.
Wars of religion did not end centuries ago — our secular world is highly religious and all the more so because their faith is so great that they do not understand themselves as a people of faith. As such, we are already way down the road of miscalculation — their belief exceeds that of any snake charming fundamentalist. This is dangerous to us who proclaim Jesus Christ as Lord.
I have been writing on this site since 2017, and for longer on another blog.
I was told a few months back that some of my colleagues had “found out” about my blog and were afraid to be in the same building as I was.
At the time I thought it was foolish. They all knew me and worked with me. I was not an unknown person. But more recently I have realized that, yes, people can be genuinely afraid.
So let’s talk about violence.
It has never even remotely entered my mind to hurt a colleague physically. Never. Not even the colleague who told me that I (me, this writer) “just don’t like those little brown people from south of the border.” The idea of hurting a colleague — or anyone — is abhorrent to me. And it troubles me not a little that I should even have to address this. But I do have to address this. Some of you feel afraid, and I respect you enough not to mock your feelings or to tell you that you shouldn’t feel the way you feel.
Try that in a marriage: “Honey, you shouldn’t be angry at me because . . . .” No, she feels angry. Her feelings are real. Telling someone they shouldn’t feel the way the feel isn’t helpful.
Violence is a theoretical concept to me. I do write about it. But I don’t practice it. I have no experience hurting people. (OK, my last fight was 40 years ago as a drunken frat boy and I got whipped). I have worked with people I disagree with for my entire life. Not just my current employer, but in Grad school as well. I’m used to being the odd-man out on matters that truly interest me. I keep my opinions out of the work place almost entirely.
Yet, a thinking man — to be a thinking man — must speak publicly.
I don’t talk about my employer because, frankly, my interests lie upstream from politics and policy. I’m interested in philosophy and linguistics and theology and history and go wherever I think I need to go with those things. A broad field indeed.
I take responsibility for my ideas, and for the consequences of how my ideas affect me. I knew what I was getting into when I started writing publicly and I fully understand that there would be pushback. I’m OK with that. I need to write — in Maslow’s hierarch of needs, writing is my self-actualization.
But I will never hurt you.
Anyway, I’ve addressed it.
Cheers,
Fritz
