Americans can hear the sound of the march and the drumbeat towards war. Before the Iraq war, there was a drumbeat in the news that quietly crept along until it became a roar. The drumbeat to war is like a heartbeat that starts to beat faster and faster until the heart rolls out of rhythm, endangering the body whole. The body politic as a whole is in great peril right now. What Black Sabbath called the “War Pigs” is centered on a pernicious goal and its war with Russia. The march to war is getting louder and louder. Can you hear it?

There is close to a blackout when it comes to America’s news networks covering what is going on with Russia and Ukraine, there is no balance, only propaganda is what we get. We have heard faint voices in the political ether telling you that we are on the verge of a world war. Donald Trump has given voice to this evident truth and has been trying to stop it. The problem is that the old man is right in this regard. The Military Industrial Complex is poking the Russian Bear, and they will not stop until the bear does what bears do.

The heartbeat of war is racing and is telling the body (America) to handle this before the heart explodes. Stop poking the Russian Bear! Cut the shit out people and go read the new book, “Nuclear War: A Scenario” by Annie Jacobsen, which lays out the tick-tocking of the clock about how a Nuclear War would unfold. The book is a frightening reminder of how, once something like a Nuclear War starts, there is no turning back. I believe we have an equivalent here, we must rein in the War Pigs; we must do that now.
