War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength. Power is not a means; it is an end. (Orwell, 1984) He was obviously ahead of his time.

I fear you are absolutely right. That's the way it's heading and people like you and I have been saying this for years.

Good analysis John although I fear there is no longer the need to fear fascism in the future. Both Fascism and Nazism (the latter includes but is not exclusive to Zionism) are here. Most are still in a stage of denial but I expect the same was the case in early 1930s Germany. This time, however, it is not just a handful of medium power countries which have been over-taken, it is all of the major powers in the world with most of the world's population. You are right that post 2024 things are likely to get very much worse as the velvet gloves come off and the chain-mail fists are exposed. I'm 80 so I likely won't get to see the worst of it but I grieve for the younger generations. Our generations mostly did not learn the lessons of 1930s and 1940s but the opportunists did and here we are - repeating history only this time on steroids.
