More About: BooksWho lost America? Institutional failure
A book review: Who
Lost America? by Bromwell Ault
Part 2:
Institutional failure, loss of enforcing the rule of law, injection of
incompatible diversity
History becomes the
great mentor for any civilization hoping to outlast the ages. For all its bloody conflicts, history
presents every country lessons from the past on how other nations failed to
survive.
But in the 21st
century, America’s leaders and its citizens ignore the lessons of history. And, ironically, as America becomes less and
less of its own people and more and more of dissimilar people from around the
world, it won’t be able to return itself to its intellectual, cultural,
linguistic and spiritual foundation.
Former
Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm said, “If you believe that America is too
smug, too self-satisfied, too rich, then let’s destroy America. It is not that hard to do. No nation in history has survived the ravages
of time.”
Arnold
Toynbee observed that all great civilizations rise and fall, and that, “An
autopsy of history would show that all great nations commit suicide.”
In his
newest book, Who Lost America?—Yale
University graduate Bromwell Ault, at 86 years of age, brings enormous
historical perspective to the American predicament.
“History is
an excellent teacher,” said Ault. “To some degree it is infallible. It is both the messenger and message, and
writes our records. In the end, it determines who survives and who doesn’t, and
more importantly, what is and what isn’t.
It leaves little room for argument when it is being written and even
less thereafter.”
Every high
school student learns how Rome fell.
Every student of history knows how Easter Island’s civilization collapsed
into extinction. A quick reading tells all of us why the Mayan civilization
vanished. Historical records show why
the Pueblo people of Mesa Verde disappeared from their homes in the rock walls
of that ancient civilization.
But do you
think the citizens and leaders of America in the 21st century take
note of the causes of those collapsed civilizations? Do you think we Americans are taking actions
to avoid our own definite collapse of our civilization? The empirical and unavoidable answer:
no! In reality, we follow in the
footsteps of those ancient civilizations of history that collapsed.
“The
legislative branch of our government, with the power and responsibility to
create and pass our laws,” said Ault,
“is riven with so many divisions that its 535 members in the House and
Senate are more and more to be found at the far ends of the political spectrum
without a refuge of reason at the center.
In our time and place, it is a catastrophe. How did it his happen and why do we permit
it”
When you
look at our 10 million unemployed and 7 million underemployed, or 48 million
citizens subsisting on food stamps, or our $18 trillion national debt, or our
$315 billion annual trade deficit to China, or our useless 10-year wars in Iraq
and Afghanistan—you cannot help but lament the devolvement of our country into
a horrendous geopolitical hole from which we may not recover.
When you
look at our racial strife that dominates the headlines or our porous borders
that our Congress facilitated to allow over 12 to 20 million people to cross
without invitation or legality—you cannot help but wonder who pretends to be in
charge of our laws. The agony of 68
percent of our African-American children being brought up by a single mother on
welfare—speaks to something terribly wrong.
Who lost
America? We citizens gave our country
away to power mongers, to the military industrial complex, which foments
foreign wars out of fabrications of fear, and to institutional failures.
“To protect
ourselves, we must change our concept of power,” said Ault, “and elect as
president, not someone who merely wants power, but someone who can wield it in
a moral and balanced way…the great fault of government in America today is that
it is considered a means, not and end.
It means our elected representatives connive in the distribution of our
national political and material resources to favored areas or interests. We have badly abused our democracy and in the
process have done ourselves great disservice.”
In essence,
we gave the military-industrial-complex a cart blanche pass to create Korea,
Vietnam, Desert Storm, Afghanistan and Iraq (twice). No one questions those dishonest wars even
after the evidence shows that our leaders contrived those conflicts.
What causes
those manufactured wars? Answer:
money. Corporations make a lot of money. A lot of kids die for that money someone else
makes.
Ault said, “Money
flows in almost unimaginable amounts throughout our political process and is
constantly directed and redirected by the same people to the same places.”
Ault
describes how conflicted religions faced each other on the battlefields with
swords, spears, maces and longbows.
Their cruelty such as the Christians on the Crusades against the Muslims
of the 11th, 12th and 13th centuries engaged
extreme barbarism on both sides. Today,
Muslims commit horrific-barbaric acts against the West, but in return, the West
bombs and kills hundreds of thousands of Muslims in their own lands. With countries like Syria, Muslims shoot,
bomb, poison and kill each other with prolific enthusiasm.
Ault
describes Rome’s fall to its endless immigration that destroyed its cohesive
military into the chaos of the Goths, Visa-Goths and Vandals. Rome lost its cultural foundation along with
its language.
“As to
immigration, enter the Kudzu Curve,” said Ault.
“Extend it another 50 years and our America will join the Easter Island
sculptures looking for help that will not come.”
What
Americans don’t realize continues at breakneck speed: America will change from
a 90 percent European majority to a Latino majority by 2042—a scant 28 years
from now. That means our major language, English, will share center stage with
Spanish. Our national ethos faces
radical change.
“Can this
come to pass?” said Ault. “And why is it considered a very real possibility by
many Americans. For an answer, it is
only necessary to look to Europe. We
have seats, front and center, to observe the deadly results of unchecked
immigration in France, Germany, England, Denmark, Norway, Netherlands and Italy
where former colonial powers are being swamped by constant third world
arrivals, mostly from Africa or the Near East, and mostly Muslims.
“The result
has been extreme violence in the streets with random acts of murder, rape,
torture and extensive property damage.
To look at the European history, to listen to the arguments on both
sides, to observe the results, and then to think it can’t happen here is sheer
folly.”
By reading
Ault’s book and watching television nightly, you cannot help but “connect the
dots” on how we lost America and how fast we continue losing it even further to
a peaceful, self-invited invasion via immigration.
Ironically,
the latest S744 amnesty bill doubled legal immigration from 1 million to 2
million annually. If it passes, ultimately the rate of speed of immigration
leading to an added 100 million immigrants by 2050 shall accelerate at twice
the velocity.
Our
ultimate destination places a special ring to Toybee’s words: “All great
civilizations rise and fall, and that, an autopsy of history would show that
all great nations commit suicide.”

The Organic Illusion (Read it for FREE, here)http://farmwars.info/?p=12434
Hey, Frosty, America ISN'T lost - only the people at the top - (Rothschilds, Rockefellers, Warburgs, Schiffs, et al), and those who serve them (the U.S. Government) have LOST THEIR WAY.
We, the People, make up over 300 MILLION people. WE have not LOST OUR WAY (at least, not entirely, as we did fall asleep, while the U.S. Government fell into the hands of 'globalists' on Wall St., who can print up endless sums of fiat currency to buy loyalty, from all their SAYANIM (helpers, toward their N.W.O.), in all the alphabet-soup, three-letter agencies, that serve them - CFR, CIA, FBI, ATF, DHS, TSA, NSA, and on, and on - AD NAUSEUM.
There are things WE ALL CAN DO. Starting TODAY!
2) Stay away from the military. Why be cannon-fodder for THEIR N.W.O.?
3) Bank at a local credit union! Why bank at a TBTF (“Too-Big-To-Fail”) Bank, such as those that received a CRONY BANKER BAILOUT (from the “Fed”) in late 2008, which Obama authorized with his signature?
4) Get out, and/or stay out, of DEBT!
5) USE CASH (or personal checks) AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. Avoid credit/debit cards.
6) VOTE WITH YOUR DOLLARS! (What do you support, with your time, money, energy, and attention?)
7) Trade your FRN’s for SILVER BULLION. Silver is currently the most affordable (undervalued), and heavily-suppressed commodity available, and along with gold, has been used as REAL MONEY, for thousands of years. Silver also is used in industrial applications, while gold is not. Most historically-mined gold, remains above ground. In relatively recent history, most historically-mined silver has been used up. It’s supply, still-in-the-ground, is finite, and is projected to run out. I’m sure it’s used in weapons systems. “In debt and death – they – trust”. Need I say more?
8) CUT BACK ON OIL AND GAS CONSUMPTION! (Many oil companies are owned by Bankers)
9) Buy USED, locally, or online, if necessary, such as on etsy.com – buy from etsy.com sellers who ship within the U.S. It keeps your $$ in either the local economy, or the larger U.S. economy.
10)Buy MADE IN USA, when buying NEW items, if you want jobs to return to the US.
(If Americans begin buying MADE IN USA ONLY, guess where manufacturing jobs will move to?)
11)Buy ORGANIC food! Support your local Organic food store or Co-op! Whole,
organically-grown foods are best. LOCALLY-sourced, is ideal. Support the true HEROES of organic food production (on the right side, of the following poster: http://www.cornucopia.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/prop37-poster3.jpeg)
12)Take a high-quality daily multi-vitamin (such as Carlson’s, NOW brand, Stop Aging Now (SAN), or Mercola.com)
13)Contact your Representatives on critical issues: such as “END THE FED!” (I would ONLY contact them on this ONE issue. Otherwise, IGNORE the politicians. They don’t represent you, and haven’t for a LONG, LONG time).
14)Re-read the 2nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. It isn’t about hunting! It’s about government tyranny, and protecting yourself from it.
15)THINK for yourself. TURN OFF the IDIOT-BOX (the TV), OR THROW IT AWAY! Also, try to avoid all the “doom porn” on sites like infowars.com, that do little more, than continually address the problems, or the symptoms of the problems, without providing any REAL SOLUTIONS, like those you have in front of you, right now. NO FEAR! HAVE COURAGE! TAKE ACTION!
16)Read a book. Like, TRAGEDY AND HOPE, by Carrol Quigley, or THE CREATURE FROM JEKYLL ISLAND, by G. Edward Griffin, or THE GLOBALIZATION OF POVERTY, AND THE NEW WORLD ORDER, by Prof. Michel Chossudovsky, or TOTALITARIA: What If the Enemy IS the State?, by Ian Wishart, or THE FINANCIAL VIPERS OF VENICE, by Joseph P. Farrell
17)Question the KLEPTOCRACY. QUESTION all ‘authority’ (Big Business + Big Government, Big Religion, Big Media, Big Agribiz (Monsanto), Big Pharma, etc).
18)Pray or meditate – reduce your stress! (Stress weakens the auto-immune system, opening up the body to free radical attack).
19)Listen to soothing classical, jazz, ambient or other music you thoroughly enjoy!
20)BOYCOTT – learn this concept well, and EMPLOY IT – against those 1) enslaving, or 2) poisoning you!
