2026: The Beginning of the End for the Western World

2026 was the year that the deterioration in Western civilization became irreversible. In the United States the Republic established by the Founding Fathers had deteriorated into mob democracy, a form of communism, a regime in which 42 million Americans unable or unwilling to provide for themselves voted themselves a livelihood provided by the work force of 170 million, in effect reducing the working population to serfs serving the new privileged class.
The long years of open borders had filled the United States with millions of illegal immigrant-invaders, who no longer assimilate but establish their own cultural zones and advocate for their own forms of law. The country was transformed into a Tower of Babel in which exists no common purpose. The concept of America as a unified nation ceased to exist as the United States dissolved into multiculturalism. The transformation of the United States was symbolized by the swearing in of New York mayor, an African-born Muslim, Zohran Mamdani on a Quran.
Trump s0ught to unite the United States with acts of military aggression. He attacked Nigeria and Venezuela and kidnapped the Venezuelan president and First Lady. He issued threats of attack to Columbia, Mexico, Cuba, and Iran. Militarism became the basic element of US foreign policy.
Standards essentially disappeared. Integrity was a thing of the past. News reporting became narratives serving monied and powerful interests. The digital revolution produced endless scams, identity thefts, and insecurity of assets and persons. Presidential elections were stolen as in 2020. Conflicts were perpetrated in order to enrich the military security complex and advance Greater Israel. The American middle class continued to shrink. The shrinkage that began with the offshoring of American manufacturing jobs and the importation of foreigners on H-1b work visas accelerated with artificial intelligence and robotics. There were no longer ladders of upward mobility to move illegal aliens and new entrance into the workforce into self-supporting employment.
The Trump administration attempted to rein-in and reverse the deterioration, but the federal bureaucracy was filled with millions of Democrat employees protected by Democrat federal district judges, and the government bureaucracy refused to cooperate with the president.
Trump could not get America out of wars because of the power of the military security complex and Israel. To serve the power and profit of the military security complex, President Trump was forced to open military confrontation with Venezuela, kidnapping the Venezuelan president and First Lady and putting them on trial with false charges. The Israel lobby and Netanyahu required present Trump to again attack Iran. The consequent war profits drained from the budget made impossible the ability of the United States to restrain the growth of its national debt.
The rapid increase in American public debt contributed to the rapid rise in the dollar price of gold and silver. But the main danger to the dollar and the ability of the United States to finance its massive debt is the weaponization of the dollar associated with sanctions against Russia, Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, and any country that fails to conform its internal and external policies to Washington’s will. As long as US national debt in the form of US Treasury bonds comprises the reserves of the world’s central banks, financing the US debt is no problem. An increase in American debt simply meant an increase in the reserves of the world banking system. Once the sanctions were imposed Central banks realized that holding reserves in US Treasury debt could result in the bank reserves being confiscated as happened to Russia. As central banks retreated to alternatives to US Treasury debt, the US dollar weakened and lost its power.
The United States of America not only lost its existence to millions of immigrant-invaders. It lost its independence to the Israel lobby and Prime Minister Netanyahu, a man under indictment by his own government and by the International Criminal Court. The American president Trump has repeatedly shown humiliating subordination to this indicted criminal.
In the United States and particularly in the Republican Party, the compelling question is whether a person is an anti-semite. Think for a moment about this term. Once upon a time long ago, anti-semite meant a person who hated Jews and wished them harm. Today it means that anyone who criticizes Israel, however mildly, does so not from a moral conscience, not from opposition to Israeli soldiers shooting Palestinian women and children in the head, bombing hospitals full of injured and the sick, bombing schools full of children, bombing residential housing full of civilians, but from hatred of Jews. For example, criticisms of the ongoing Israeli genocide of Palestine are dismissed as expressions of hatred of Jews.
No other ethnic group is so totally protected from accountability for crimes. American students who criticize Israel’s genocide in Palestine are expelled from the university. If the students are foreign, Trump deports them to their home countries. In states such as Texas and Florida criticism of Israel, and involvement in boycott of Israel, disqualify Americans from working for the states, or having contracts to supply the states with goods and services. It should both stun and shame Americans that Israel has succeeded in canceling the constitutionally guaranteed right of free speech.
The moral conscience of the western world disappeared when Israel could shoot mothers and their babies in the head with any protest being prohibited as hatred of Jews.
Consider the term anti-semitism. Why is it that only Jews have a term that dismisses any attempt to hold them accountable for genocide or whatever crime? Everyone else on earth can be held accountable for human rights, violations, for infiltrating foreign intelligent services, for attacking their Navy ships as Israel did in 1967 to the USS Liberty, killing and wounding some 200 American US Navy personnel. Yet, no protest was permitted. Indeed, few Americans even know of it.
President Trump could not save America because he could not free America of Israel’s control. The Republican party was more supportive of Israel than it was of America’s own president.
The social and moral degradation of the United States is even worse. Feminists destroyed the natural relationship between men and women in Western society. The family was a casualty. Today 40% of births in America occur outside of marriage. There are no longer two parents to raise a child. Indeed sometimes there are none. With husband and wife both career-oriented, children are left to childcare centers and video screens.
Ever since Alfred Blumrosen at the EEOC stood the 1964 Civil Rights Act on its head and imposed racial quotas despite their explicit prohibition in the Act, American white heterosexual males have been second class citizens under the law. Blumrosen’s imposition of racial quotas destroyed the American merit system that was the basis for university admission, employment, and promotion by requiring proportional representation of what of what was called “preferred minorities.” Women and the sexually perverted were added to blacks as preferred minorities. Today, women dominate media, education, law, and healthcare and they are closing in on corporate CEO’s where women now comprise 48% of the leaders of American corporations. White men simply cannot gain entrance into prestigious universities in percentages equal to their percentage of the population. Therefore, they experience the opposite of affirmative action. They experience legal but unconstitutional race and gender discrimination and have done so for 60 years. Imagine that. How does that fit in with equal rights? Why did America penalize white heterosexual male Americans citizens in order to advance blacks, women, and the sexually perverted? Is there any better way to destroy a country? Who is responsible for this atrocity? Why has American society tolerated this unconstitutional discrimination for 60 years?
The chastity of women is a long abandoned virtue. Today books by women celebrate the virtues and excitement of harlotry. Middle-aged women write New York Times best sellers about how by abandoning their husband and children they achieved self-love and the best sex of their lives. These are not women on whom a nation can be built.
A recent survey by the Manhattan Institute shows that few Republicans understand the issues of our time or the dangers to the continuation of Western civilization. A civilization is based on a belief system, and when these beliefs are eroded by constant attacks over decades and by propaganda designed to focus a country on serving interests that are not its own, it is destroyed, leaving the civilization unprotected from its enemies.
Throughout Europe, the situation is even worse. Ethnic national existence is today equated with Nazism. In France Marine Le Pen, leader of France’s largest political party, is prohibited from running for election. No European government represents its ethnic population, except for the government in Hungary and perhaps Poland. The rest represent the immigrant-invaders who are gradually acquiring the right to live outside of the country’s law. Rapes of Swedish, Norwegian, and British women and underage female children by immigrant-invaders go largely unpunished. Indeed, it can be dangerous to women, especially in Scandinavia and the UK, to report rapes as the report can be interpreted as a hate crime.
It is extraordinary that American feminists are completely silent on this matter.
The European Union was created in order to suppress the ethnic nationalities of European countries and destroy their sovereignty by subjecting them to an artificial creation called the European Union. The European Union is an autocratic institution in which all power resides in appointed leaders, not in elected representatives. The elected representatives are nothing but a cover for the autocracy that has been created. What this tells us is that in Europe there is no longer any respect for the sovereignty of European peoples. They are to be governed by those who select themselves as the governors.
This is a fragile structure, and to hold it together the European Union has focused on the alleged “Russian threat” against which Europe must be united. So preparing for war with Russia is the strategy for holding the European nations captive. Of course, if the war occurs there will be no Europe.
What is wrong with European leadership that it is not recognized that war with Russia means the termination of Europe? What is to be gained by a war that terminates your existence? Europe’s inability to confront this basic question indicates an absence of the ability to recognize facts and to think.
Americans have the same problem, What the vast majority of the public wants to hear is what they already think. They don’t want their brainwashings and indoctrinations to be challenged. It is uncomfortable, and they had rather be comfortable than informed. So they cling to the false explanations that keep them in La La Land.
When a people so uninformed, so alienated from facts, so comfortable in the unreality in which they live confront the threat to their continued existence, how do they cope? They cannot.
I have spent my adult life, trying to provide Americans with good information. I could not have chosen a more difficult task. Americans are essentially immune to any reality that goes beyond their personal circumstances. Consequently, this made it easy for their non-personal circumstances to be dramatically altered over time without their awareness. Today the Constitution that once protected Americans’ rights is in ruins. Americans are overrun by tens of millions of non-white immigrant-invaders who do not assimilate, but who establish their own communities, and are given privileged standing before the law. If we look at it honestly, the United States is no longer a country with an ethnic foundation. It is an unstable Tower of Babel in which morality has given away to sexual license and the disappearance of integrity.
Can we really expect an American president to reverse such a deteriorated situation with a population that is so insouciant that it has no grasp of reality? With the Democrat Party committed to a Soddom and Gomorrah Tower of Babel and a Republican party with 60% of its members committed to Israel First, what future does America have?
