Race war, class war, anti-government riots – you name it. All of it is headed our way.
The sentiment across the nation, as Michael Bloomberg suggested in a recent interview, is that Americans know something is wrong in this country. For every individual and the groups with which they affiliate it's different. For the black panthers it's racism and poverty. For unions it's benefit cuts, wage cuts and free market solutions. For Tea Party members it's an intrusive and socialist government.
The majority of America is not happy and they've lost hope, because regardless of what group you identify with, what color you are or what way you lean politically, you're losing jobs, falling behind on essential bills, having difficulty putting food on the table and are constantly being accosted by government on all levels.
When the riots start – and they will – the core motivators for individuals who hit the streets will be similar. Where the difference will arise is who each person or group will blame. Those elites in the upper echelons of our command and control apparatus thrive on hate, confusion and panic, and they will use our own ignorance against us.
When we discuss the coming civil disobedience and unrest in America, we may find ourselves visualizing protests where the people join together to oust a tyrannical government. Be forewarned. This is not the most likely outcome – at least not at the outset. With so many different ideologies in this country, every one of us interprets the problems and directs blame a different way. These differences will be used against us; they'll be used to turn us against each other.
As you watch the following short speech from Black Panther National Chairman Malik Shabazz, consider that, while you may disagree with his solutions to the problems or where he places some of the blame, his core message is very similar to those of others that are fed up with what's going on in this country.
Our message to the State Department, our message to the CIA, our message to Homeland Security, our message to the government today, is that your enemy is not our enemy.
Your enemy in Afghanistan, your enemy in Iran, your enemy that you are bombing in Libya today – those are not our enemies. Our enemies are right here in the United States of America. Our battle is not against Ghaddafi. Our battle is against police brutality right here at home. Our battle is against budget cuts right here at home…
…
A message to the President, Barack Hussein Obama. We elected you. But we did not elect you to bomb your homeland. We did not elect you to bomb Africa. We are pleading with you Mr. Obama.
You cannot make a compromise with the devil. The bible says resist the devil, and the devil shall flee from you. You can't cut a deal with Satan, Mr. Obama. You got to stand up for God…
…
We have to fight. Gird up your loins college students. Gird up your loins young black man and young black woman, for the hour of war is at hand.
America is a powder keg. The fuse has been lit.
