"Now the real Fourth World War begins. Sorry to disappoint
all the scriptwriters and futurists who were thinking
exclusively in terms of bombs, plagues, famine etc. The first
weapons of mass destruction in this war will be economic and
they will be devastating beyond imagination.
...I am not so glib or cavalier as to overlook the massive
disillusionment that weighs like a wet blanket on all who had
hoped that their prodigious efforts might oust the Neo-cons.
The biggest blessing today is that the disillusionment is so
deep, so fundamental, that at last people who have bound
themselves to ineffective political strategies may rethink their
deeper core beliefs; their beliefs about what America was
supposed to be versus what it has become. They will redraw
their maps. Perhaps with that process - painful as it might be
- will also come a willingness to abandon strategies which no
longer work for entirely different ones that do. In order for
that to happen, however, those on the left, as well as those
conservative and libertarian voices who wanted to return a
degree of sanity to the Republican party, will have to admit
that America is not America anymore.
We are living in a foreign land; a nation that is behaving like
our enemy; a nation which has weaknesses and
vulnerabilities.
This nation is so deeply divided that the words "civil war"
stand for a possibility that is no longer remote. Next year,
even the next few months, will reveal these deep and
irreconcilable divisions. The electoral process is dead. Only
the fear that there is nothing to replace it except revolution
and bloodshed will prevent people from seeing that there are
different ways to fight; ways that should have been adopted
four years ago. The rest of the world knows that physical
force is not effective in this struggle and the rest of the world
has something to teach us. We will look anew perhaps at the
Second Amendment to the Constitution, but it is in what's left
of the First that we will find our strength. The freedom of
association includes within it the right to decide where and
how to spend our money.
Perhaps out of fear, perhaps out of prudence, I have been
told that some activists and whistleblowers are planning on
leaving the country in short order. A thought I have seen
circulate in discussions since the election is that many
well-known activists and whistleblowers think it wise to run
before Dick Cheney and Karl Rove get their legs and start
hunting us down, one by one. Reuters published a November
3rd story about many Democrats seeking to emigrate to
Canada."
