Excellent analysis. Flynn also said that they intend to establish One Nation under One Religion. That's trashing of the Constitution. Government does not establish religion. One Nation under God, Not under lawless Men. Shame on all evangelical Christians who are in a state of trance worshiping men I stead of God.

The ruling class relies on both fascism and the teachings of Leo Strauss. Strauss was from the University of Chicago and taught many disciples of his brand of Platonic thinking. He is essential to understanding what is transpiring today for one of his "big philosophical insights" is the use of religion to control the masses. It is not enough that the masses have Netflix and Popcorn they must become a part of the theological fascist movement or resist it with full force.

I read what you sent and thank you. The Summary of Strauss I found decent. Much left out but enough to understand the corner he comes out of.

The Straussian's were by and large Trotskyites. This is very interesting for they became the neocons and now the fascists.

Strauss would have loved the raw meat we see today.

As a Philosopher King, he would rationalize it as the Nazis did.

Shadia Dury did the best two books on the Straussians.

When you google Leo Strauss or authors 'critical' of Straus her name never comes up.

Strauss was a fascist.

He taught his small clique, much like Ayn Rand did, the despicable slave society he envisioned.

He thought he could read hidden messages in Plato's work and that he was somehow a spiritual inheritor of Plato's philosophy.

Strauss was all about Plato's "Philosophy of Kings" where a Nocturnal Council would be all seeing, all knowing.

You can read Plato's Republic.

Strauss was part of the Chicago School Boys, the Pinochet managers.

And he remains today an icon for the fascists.

Christofascisms many cults have populated our government…New Apostolic Reformation, and Opus Dei being just a couple of the more powerful and influential insane cult’s followers. Mike Flynn was spouting this nonsense when Trump nominated him years ago, their warriors for god appointed insanity knows no bounds, and needs to be exposed! Thanks for sharing this well crafted piece!!

Yes, but he becomes more dangerous each day the theocratic fascist movement gains more and more power. In fact, for ruling class he is essential.

The task at hand is to cripple the imperialist war machine on the home front in order to increase the odds of an Iranian + Axis of Resistance victory over the criminal fascists. All right-thinking people of the world (and especially Westerners) must stand behind the Islamic Republic and its allies!

Modhi is a very big problem. He is a rat. Not to be trusted. The BJP was a fascist and is a fascist organization starting in 1951.

They are Hindutva fascists and very close to Tulsi Gabbard herself a Hinduvist.

Gen. Flynn neglects military history. Russia and China absorbed the losses and the Allies came in late and helped them win WW2. Flynn obviously didn't watch the May 9, 2025 80th Victory Celebration with participation of dozens of countries. Oh, as a reminder, Iran is a member of BRICS+!

WRF! The Empire of Chaos is governed by pschypoaths. The US fucked up in Korea, Vietname, Afghanistan, Iraqui, Libya, Syria and now we want to go into Itan, after not even being able to defeat a 5th rate power like Yemen. The US still produces arms, but does so slowly and very expensively. It takes one to three months to produce a missle. China can produce 25 of them a week. If the US starts a war with China it will lose badly and quickly. China by far and away holds the technilogical production edge.

The US needs to start engaging in smart and equitable diplomacy, and do it quickly before it's too late. China is a mercantile state, and they want to do business and not engage in war. The problem is that the US has become a war state, and is rapidly losing its ability to effective engage in business.

Murder by playing with nuclear fire.

Good God! Greed and Lust for Power in these and others who are enjoying the drama, excitement and uncertainty as if it was a movie. Wake up! We have been brought to the precipice of all out war for all of the inhabitants of the earth by ignorance and hubris. They are playing with nuclear which probably eventually will kill us slowly and very painfully, or immolate us instantly. This is the

Highest Crime and sadly brought to us by ignorance and all of the tenets of God. And I'm an

agnostic.

Sure: google 'War on Iran Targets China' and get a library.

Here is one by barbarian Michael Flynn I thought might be of use as this is all about the theological fascist right.

But it is the mantra among the majority and preparations have been made for years.

AI changes everything as does the violence of Empire.

The war on Iran will make Iran stronger just like the war on Russia made Russians stronger and more united.

"He admitted that the United States is giving Israel substantial intelligence, weapons, and training, helping it to wage this war."

Is this news to you? Is this news to anybody? The Biden administration was assisting Israel's genocide for over a year.
