Exegesis: This Is A Foreign Policy? You're Kidding, Right? We must apologize for having to awaken America from its media-induced trance, but there are a few items we should mention. Regular readers know how I value Margaret Thatcher's words: "The first step in calculating which way to go is to find out where you are." So here's where we are: the culture war is being lost, globalists and socialists have hijacked American public education, the media, the film industry, most organs of commerce and of course, The White House and much of the US Government. And they did it so stealthily that few have realized it. Peter Hoagland, a State Senator from Nebraska, recently said: "Fundamental, Bible believing people do not have the right to indoctrinate their children in their religious beliefs, because we, the state, are preparing them for the year 2000, when America will be part of a one-world global society and their children will not fit in." Well, forewarned is forearmed. Now, there's another cause for concern, more military than moral. Remember when we were anxious about Soviet activity on Cuba because it was just 90 miles from Florida's coast? How do you feel about a much more aggressive and potentially hostile enemy having an air base actually inside America? Not great? Now take another leap. Suppose that air base were less than fifty miles from Washington DC? Charles Smith, a computer security expert, reports in WorldNet Daily this week that Senator Jay Rockefeller (D-WV) has teamed up with Texas-based Swearingen Aircraft, the AFL-CIO and Communist Chinese government member Li Ka-Shing, whose Sino-Aerospace Investment Corporation is used for espionage and who provides fronts for Chinese military operations and civilian covers for Chinese soldiers to enter the US under commercial camouflage. They have opened an aircraft production plant at Martinsburg Airport in West Virginia, just 48 miles from Washington, to produce the SJ-30, a state-of-the-art business jet that travels 2,500 miles at nearly the speed of sound and cruises at 49,000 feet. Thus the joint interests of a Chinese billionaire, the labor unions and Senator Rockefeller now manufacture business jets and provide the People's Republic with an air base in West Virginia. Martinsburg Airport is located just south of the town at a major north/south and east/west crossing for US microwave and fiber-optic telecommunications, just a few miles from Mount Weather, the US Government's secret underground emergency facility and from the Presidential Retreat at Camp David. This project could put Chinese bombers over Washington without warning. As Smith writes: "A single jet with a suitcase bomb could fly to ground zero with satellite navigation accuracy and an autopilot. Such an unmanned flight in the crowded skies of Washington DC would go unnoticed until the final fatal second. The surprise nuclear attack will kill the entire US leadership: US military leaders in the Pentagon, the White House, Congress, the Supreme Court and nearly a million Americans will die in a single flash." And that's not all. Look at a map: Martinsburg is strategically located. Not only could a small plane fly right into Washington DC undetected until the very last moment, but one could also fly east into Baltimore and, shielded by the leeward side of the Appalachians, right into Philadelphia and New York City. The Chinese now appear to have the capability to bomb every major East Coast city with little chance of early detection. This is the frightening scenario that Senator Rockefeller and President Clinton have wrought. Two questions arise concerning the motives. First, what do the Chinese and Russians want? Do they really want to bomb the Untied States into destruction? Or do they simply wish to hold the threat over the head of Mr. Clinton and his successors? It's certainly a persuasive manner in which to extract business concessions, silence over Human Rights abuses, and anything else they might desire in the future. Secondly, on the part of Rockefeller and Clinton, was this astounding development brought about by ignorance, weakness or their own deliberate fault, or a combination of all three? Let us find out. It is true that Mr. Clinton has no foreign policy save the enhancement of his Swiss bank account, of which the current 'wag the dog' adventure in Kosovo may be further evidence. If it is true that he earns a hefty commission every time he orders a Cruise missile fired, and as the first wave of B-2 and B-52 bombers has already bombed Serbian Christians in defense of Kosovar Muslims with 160 of them at $1.25 million each, that's $200 million. Even a 10% commission in external, unofficial funds must be a pleasant boost to the retirement fund and doubtless proves helpful in paying the salaries of hired thugs to intimidate witnesses, bring down airplanes in Croatia, help people fall off buildings, and dump the occasional body in Fort Marcy Park. There may have been a moral reason to bomb Yugoslavia seven years ago to prevent more bloodshed, but Mr. Clinton's expired credibility suggests that none exists now. It is instructive to contrast this policy with criticism of the US policy to supply arms to the Nicaraguan Contras in the 1980s. Once one begins down the road of lies and corruption, the case for weakness is made without much effort. One is automatically exposed to blackmail and threats. It might be interesting to ponder how Bill Clinton's so-called Foreign Policy might differ were there no such covert threats. And finally, was this scenario deliberately staged? David Rockefeller, master string-puller and strong advocate of one-world global government, makes few mistakes. Almost like the Almighty Himself, he knows the knowledge and ignorance, the strengths and weaknesses, of his pawns. Bill Clinton has learned much from him, for he too chooses people to serve him who have certain exploitable weaknesses. Unlike the Almighty, however, Mr. Rockefeller's way is doomed to destruction. What a pity he doesn't realize that. There is yet another danger to the United States. According to former Soviet Union Intelligence Service Colonel Stanislav Lunev, the highest-ranking official ever to defect to America, Russian and Chinese army operatives in the United States have created large stockpiles of arms hidden all over America for use in time of war. Lunev says these stockpiles include explosives, nerve gas, anthrax and as many as 120 "suitcase" nuclear bombs. Charles Smith confirmed Colonel Lunev's story with several members of Congress. China and Russia have positioned nuclear, chemical and biological weapons on American soil. Now for two further ironic twists. The first is that, according to Mr. Smith, the activities at Martinsburg Airport are supported by the US taxpayers, who pay for the National Guard facilities and airport ground facilities, such as fire and rescue. Are you outraged yet? Wait for the second twist: President Clinton and Congress are fully aware that China and Russia have smuggled nuclear weapons into the United States. How can this be when the President said in his State of the Union speech last year: "For the first time since the dawn of the nuclear age, there is not a single solitary nuclear missile pointed at an American child tonight. Not one. Not a single one."? As he spoke those words, he knew that China had up to 18 intercontinental ballistic missiles targeted at America and that Chinese and Russian nuclear bombs were stored in the United States. In his distorted version of the English language, it is probably true that the missiles weren't targeted directly at a specific American child, but we again recall his truthful words to Monica Lewinsky: "My life has been full of lies and deception." How can we believe anything he says? At last Friday's Press Conference, Mr. Clinton added: History will record that ... there will be hundreds of times when ... I did not abuse my authority as president." How about the thousands of other times? How about luring the American people into a false sense of security when he knew that their very liberty and safety had been seriously compromised by, of all people, himself, presumably in return for Chinese campaign donations? What history will actually record is this: that of all the women Bill Clinton has abused, raped and left for dead, one has suffered more than any other: Lady Liberty, whom Ronald Reagan once eulogized as "that beautiful lady, the other woman in my life". She is now merely a tourist attraction in New York harbor. Bill Clinton has raped her of any meaning and left her naked and bleeding. Liberty in America is vanishing at an alarming rate. What are we to do? Shall we just watch television as we are enslaved in a new world order? If not, who will be our knights in shining armor? Just as America was blessed by its Founders - noble, brave men who carved out from George III's tyranny, "a new nation, conceived in Liberty" - it now needs a group of Restorers to put this great nation back on course. George W. Bush, who has been groomed to succeed Bill Clinton in January 2001, cannot restore America. Given his Establishment connections, he can do little more than slow the moral rot if he is so inclined. Will he order the Chinese expelled? Will he roll back the tide of state encroachment on liberty by reducing taxation and abolishing government functions? There is little evidence yet to suggest that either Mr. Bush or Congress - even if Republican controlled - are so willed. He may slightly reduce the speed of destruction, but that's about it. Maybe the folks in Austin will contemplate that as a campaign slogan: "See America Destroyed More Slowly - Vote For Bush." It's sure to be a terrific vote winner. The questions we must address are these: Is America so irreparably decadent that it cannot be restored? Are safety and liberty so damaged that we must taste tyranny before we take action to remove our loved ones from danger and legalized serfdom? We must focus and pray for national repentance and deliverance. The comforting thought is that the Lord knows everything. Perhaps we shall be reassured by these words from Psalm 27: "The Lord is my light and my salvation - whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life - of whom shall I be afraid? When evil men advance against me to devour my flesh, when my enemies and my foes attack me, they will stumble and fall. Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then will I be confident. Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord." (1-3, 14) Only by sincere prayer can America - and the West - be rescued and restored. Given what we now know, there really is no time to lose. =87 Steve Myers , Editor _________________________________________________ We welcome your letters to the editor. Please write to editor@sm.org
