Is A US Civil War On The Horizon?

Via ZeroHedge

In a recent response to the FBI’s recovering of classified documents from Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence, South Carolina senator Lindsey Graham predicted “riots in the streets” if the former president is indicted over his retention of the materials after leaving the White House.

As Statista’s Martin Armstrong notes, there have been rumblings of warning signs from some observers for some time that the U.S. could get dragged into a civil war if it continues on its route of growing political and social division – concerns only amplified in the wake of the January 6 storming of the Capitol.

By now, the impression that a civil war could be brewing has spread to the general public, and as a new Gallup poll indicates, to a large extent.

When looking at all adult U.S. citizens responding to the survey, 43 percent said they think that a civil war is at least somewhat likely in their country in the coming decade.

As the chart above shows, those identifying as ‘strong Democrats’ were slightly more optimistic overall, but 40 percent still held this position. A majority of ‘strong Republicans’ on the other hand said they think civil war is coming – 54 percent.

It will be neighbor against neighbor. And much like the war in the 1860s, it will be a war between people who wish to be left alone and those who simply can’t leave well enough alone.

That’s been guaranteed by the propaganda and paranoia generated the past 38+ months over the FauciFlu … and how the jabbed have been turned against the un-jabbed … as well as all of the other divisiveness that’s been generated going back to the administration of Trump’s predecessor …

The reason they want to take your guns is because they are about to do something to you that would justify you shooting them.

There IS no other plausible explanation.

As an aside, David Wolfe is a raw vegan food promoter with a very large online store for nutritional supplements, raw food items, etc. that promotes heath above modern medicine. So maybe not all political stereotypes are 100% sound. Hopefully he shares his thoughts with his readers/customers.

And here’s what Wikipedia has to say about him….so pretty much an endorsement….”David “Avocado” Wolfe (born August 6, 1970) is an American author and conspiracy theorist. He promotes a variety of pseudoscientific ideas such as raw foodism, alternative medicine, and vaccine denialism. He has been described as “[o]ne of Facebook’s most ubiquitous public figures” as well as an “internationally renowned conspiracy theorist” and a “huckster”.

It wasn’t an endorsement of Wikipedia. It was simply showing that their slamming of him put him in good company, despite being someone who supports a raw, vegan diet. Thought that was implied.

“despite being someone who supports a raw, vegan diet”

That’s MORE than reason enough to slam him. Nothing against vegetables. I personally love them as an accoutrement and garnish, but for the most part they’re what MY food eats…..

Some stupid cow just went to jail for Life for starving her 18-month old to death on a Vegan Diet. There’s just something WRONG with those people. And they’re SO FUCKING SMUG about it too……

Unfortunately the ‘World’ is not going to understand anything. Or, if they do, it will as always be months, years or decades too late. The lag time between the masses begin fucked and realizing they have been fucked is always too great. If they even figure it out, it is always WAY too late to do anything and everyone seems to want to “just get on with life” so they have no interest in perusing justice. And the perps have moved on to the next thing they will screw everyone with by that point.

It won’t be a war in the real meaning of the word. Wars require leaders and people with a goal, we have no such leader or people. We are a nation of corrupt leaders and the free shit army. CIVIL WAR MY ASS. Riots and looting are not a civil war. Stepping on maggots is not a civil war. What we will have is a total collapse then a rebuild, there will be lots of death and destruction but no war. Mass murder and calamity 100%. Civil war 0%.

Not true, Donald Trump is a leader by every metric you can conjure.
Yeah, not your leader I guess, but to deny his leadership and more importantly his followers is negligent analysis.
He has put together the largest coalition of populist support in American history.

Boobus Americanus is too fat and indolent to do that. If the government forcing you to shut down your business and starve wasn’t humiliating enough, they then forced you to mask your toddlers and children. And 95% of these assholes did it with glee, to flatten the curve and protect grandma and blah blah blah.

Until the NFL ceases to exist due to their players dying off from the clot shots, I expect little to change. We are fat, happy, and kept. The modern American “man” is angrier at their team’s coach then they are at the politicians that have preceded over the most epic looting of our wealth in human history.

Isiah 1:5-7 KJV

5 Why should ye be stricken any more? ye will revolt more and more: the whole head is sick, and the whole heart faint.

6 From the sole of the foot even unto the head there is no soundness in it; but wounds, and bruises, and putrifying sores: they have not been closed, neither bound up, neither mollified with ointment.

7 Your country is desolate, your cities are burned with fire: your land, strangers devour it in your presence, and it is desolate, as overthrown by strangers.

The reality: When bullets come ripping through their home and they dial 911 and get a busy signal.

I wonder when Trump will release them. Unless he is just playing his assigned part in this political drama.

Why didn’t the poll ask if there was a chance of civil war in one year? I surmise if the Bolsheviks are not stopped in one year it is all over. Funny that we have a nation of cowards armed to the hilt. We have sayings in this country people quote like “Don’t tread on me” or “they will only take my gun from my cold dead hand”. These sayings come from a different generation of people; not the current generation of morally weak men.

When the constitution came we lived under common law. In the 20th century lawyers wrote a new law called Administrative law but when one closely examines this law it really follows Admiralty Law; the law of the sea.

It seems to me that common law is a law suited for moral people while administrative law is written to control morally weak spineless people.

When the Bolsheviks are finished capturing this morally weak generation they will enjoy at least 70 years of animal farm living.

“not the current generation of morally weak men.”

I don’t necessarily disagree with you but I always find it amusing when men criticize other men for not doing something they themselves have not done. Have you picked up your rifle and stepped off the porch to meet your martyrdom and prove how morally strong you are?

More so than you think. I have learned the law and fight them with there own law. But there are few of us that have learned the law so only a few have spoken up and when we do speak up we don’t get the backup we need from those I call cowards. Administrative law is not the peoples law. It is tyrants law. When tyrants get confronted with their own law they don’t like it and get irate. Then they break the law as many in the government are doing now. Do you know the laws you live under in this country? I criticize people that do not know the law because this puts my rights in jeopardy. When unelected administrators make stupid rules and regulations under the cloak of statutes they need to be challenged but when the majority do not know the law then this is when I see how many people are cowards because we still have our God given conscience to guide us. One man speaking up does not detour a tyrant. But many standing together with intent does have an affect. I fight with moral truth. This works when men are moral.

The good thing about a US civil war is that we could save on shipping costs. Rather than sending weapons overseas, we could just keep them here where Biden can use them on the F-15s he thinks are such a fine idea.

Seriously, however, the Admin’s article a few days ago about the civil war in Northern Ireland is probably closer to what we can anticipate. Lots of low-level guerrilla activity with important places and people from both sides getting blown up unexpectedly.

What is coming is much more like Northern Ireland than the Civil War. Formations of local gangs and small militias.
Propaganda about racial massacres and ethnic cleansing will justify NATO involvement and allow for the targeting of anyone opposing government, most likely using drones.
What will happen will need to be horrific enough that people are willing to accept the NWO and their promises to stop the violence and restore peace and order.
