Chapter 903: Age Circle
Not long after the 991 incident, a movie called "Pearl Harbor" was released in North America.
The story tells of two brothers who fall in love with a nurse, who first falls in love with Rafe, who enlists in the British Air Force, but he disappears on the battlefield.
Being missing on the battlefield is almost equivalent to announcing his death. The nurse is very sad about this, and his brother is also very sad. The two can only encourage each other, but the seedlings of love have quietly sprouted.
However, at this time, the soldier who joined the British army came back. He was just missing and did not die. Just when the three of them didn't know how to face this problem, the Japanese were quietly preparing to attack Pearl Harbor.
Compared with the dismal box office, its propaganda significance is greater. The United States did not initiate the war in Afghanistan, but fought back in self-defense just like the Pearl Harbor incident.
However, Japan and Afghanistan are two very different countries. Japan has its own modern industry of manufacturing aircraft, while Afghanistan’s industrial products are all imported. The world’s largest country uses far more military power than Afghanistan to "defend itself" against terrorist organizations. Really "just".
With the exception of World War II, almost every U.S. troop deployment has been unjust. More and more historical data prove that the US authorities were not ignorant of the Pearl Harbor incident.
Roosevelt was a good president, but not everyone cooperated with him. During the Great Depression, he wanted to implement the "New Deal", but most of the Supreme Court judges did not think so. These aging justices supported private contracts, dual federalism and Uncontrolled corporate power (emphasis drawn), the four main Conservative Party opponents of the new government are four people who borrowed the metaphor of the apocalypse in the Bible and named their voting groups the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse".
In order to deal with these old guys, Roosevelt proposed a filling bill to Congress. According to federal law, the president has the right to appoint a judge who is 70 years old and over, and there are six current justices, including the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" Roosevelt's expansion plan expanded the number of justices of the Supreme Court from 9 to 15. Of course, the judges he arranged all supported the New Deal.
Roosevelt wanted to send troops, but many people thought it was unnecessary. The United States and Europe, Asia and Africa were separated by an ocean, and they had no direct interest in the Communist Party. Why bother to go into troubled waters?
It's not the same after having a blood feud with ***, so some people say that the Pearl Harbor incident happened half of negligence and half of deliberate laissez-faire.
As long as it is not a dead pig, it will still jump up and scream twice if it is scalded by boiling water.
People who are fascinated by Mamun shout "peace" when they should use violence to uphold justice, and keep stirring up troubles when it's time to uphold peace for their own benefit.
No matter how much the war in Afghanistan is disguised by the Pearl Harbor incident, its true purpose cannot be concealed. If the brother who participated in the British Air Force continues to turn against the "brother" who slept with his girlfriend because of the issue of women, the two young men who are full of blood may not be happy. After a bloody incident and having a common enemy "japanese", they can put aside their personal grievances, temporarily put aside their children's affair, and fight together for freedom and justice.
Transferring your own messed life to others, so that the country will be peaceful, this is an effective, cheap and easy way to solve the internal conflicts of the new government.
The pressure cooker bomb is a weapon that uses the "natural" pressurization ability of the pressure cooker to fill the pressure cooker with lethal fragments to kill the enemy.
A cooking tool can also become a lethal weapon. Human creativity is so amazing sometimes.
The social contradictions in the United States are like a pressure cooker, which will explode sooner or later.
The way politicians deal with a problem is not to solve it, but to pass it on, just like a game called drumming and passing flowers, except that in the game, volleyballs are thrown around, while politicians throw pressure cooker bombs around.
Except for Roosevelt, each president only served for 8 years, and he had to retire when the term expired. Anyway, as long as the pressure cooker didn’t explode in his arms, he could enjoy the joy of being president. What about the latecomers? Who the hell cares.
The Roman Empire, which was born on the Italian peninsula, also experienced the process of transforming from a republic to an empire. During the republic period, Rome had a system similar to that of the United States of America today, where high-level rulers check and balance each other while maintaining the politics of ordinary people as much as possible. Democracy" game rules, how did the Roman Republic transform into an empire later?
For military victories and territorial expansion, the Romans preferred heroic triumphs over reading books, as well as a large amount of wealth and slaves plundered from abroad.
The landmark building in the United States is the Empire State Building. It is not that difficult to change from Unite State to Empire State. At that time, no matter whether you are "immigrant to buy a house" or "immigrate to join the army to get a green card", you will not be contributing to capitalism, but Contribute to imperialism.
The collapse of Rome stemmed from the collapse of the Roman slavery economy. In order to maintain this powerful empire, Rome had to maintain a large number of troops externally to resist the invasion of barbarians, and internally to support a large number of idle aristocrats. , or it is becoming increasingly difficult to get enough wealth from foreign wars, and the internal slavery economy is becoming more and more inefficient and chaotic, then they will be more and more powerless to maintain this powerful empire.
Those wars that gained huge wealth and prestige from foreign wars would become factors of instability. The mutiny of the army and the rebellion of the proletarian citizens together with the slaves made the emperor tired and suppressed. It happened that the barbarians were still invading at this time, and Rome disintegrated due to internal and external troubles.
In the current United States, technology and financial multinational companies, as well as their military strength, can allow these large consortia in the United States to steal wealth from all over the world.
And it is these big conglomerates that have become factors of instability in the United States.
They have money, they can hire mercenaries, they have talents, they can develop weapons and equipment, and their employees are treated better than civil servants of the US government. Why should they work for the US government?
These white elites have completely controlled public opinion, and the president has no advantage when dealing with domestic conflicts. The only power he has is foreign wars.
People in the United States are very sorry for their lives. It is a country that values human rights. It is very difficult for ordinary people to recruit soldiers, let alone those children of rich families. They are born to become "leaders."
Most of the groups of smugglers on the border between the southern United States and Mexico came with the idea of getting a green card. For illegal immigrants, their first means of obtaining a green card is usually to find a fake marriage with an American to qualify for a green card. In fact, if they have the guts and can endure hardships, there is another way that is more formal than fake marriages, and the U.S. government also publicly encourages them, and that is to join the army.
The law and order in Mexico is more chaotic than in the United States. As for those "special talents" who have been brainwashed by American movies and think that Americans will save the world, they want to make a difference there.
When they become Americans, they feel that they are superior to others. This has something to do with the outlook on life and values they have accepted since childhood.
***Girls need to wear a face scarf, which represents their humility to Allah, and how they dress is their freedom.
American girls are very charming at a young age. Most people don't think their first time is important, and they give it up easily. This is a problem of regional culture. "Spinster" is often related to weird behavior. Like a curmudgeonly nun in a convent, or a nosy landlady.
But some girls are more traditional and conservative, and she wants to give her first time to the precious person.
The captain of the football team is often the "prom king", the more he refuses, the more he chases after him.
Let's call that conservative girl Annie for the time being. She's not a Christian or pretending to be lofty, she's just not that open.
That's not the same as the values of "Prom Queen" and her friends.
They decided to teach her a lesson.
On Halloween, the little ones would go door-to-door asking for candy, and their "big kids" would hold dances.
It was held in an abandoned barn, Tennessee is called Music City, the theme of the day was disco in the 70s, and Annie was required to wear sequined clothes, which was fine.
Later she went to the bathroom, and when she came out of the portable toilet, she found that everyone was gone, replaced by a group of Indians on horseback, wearing capes and painted on their faces, screaming and pulling her on a rope Harnessed, tied up like a trophy, and kidnapped.
She was locked in a cave and was discovered by mountaineering enthusiasts two days later.
In fact, she would be fine as long as she stayed in the cave. Those Indians were hired actors, but she thought she was really kidnapped.
Annie broke the rope with her teeth and ran away in a panic. When the climbers found her, she was severely dehydrated, covered in blood and mud, and had a high fever. After she came out of the hospital, she was suspended from school.
"Let's call that prom queen Cindy. I didn't go to that town for Cindy in the first place. I came to that town for Annie. Annie didn't go to prom, and those who started it didn't care at all, in a low key After a period of time, I started to rack my brains again, thinking about how to show off at the ball. Cindy's father is a powerful person, and he has a good relationship with the governor. Even if Anne calls the police, there will be no results. It's just a joke. The fraternity's molestation methods are much more serious than this, not to mention that Annie's injuries are all her own fault. During the investigation, I found that Cindy's troubles were more serious than Anne's. I thought that the one who put the curse on Cindy was Annie, so I used hypnosis on Annie."
"How did it turn out?" the butler asked eagerly.
"It's not her, although she really wants to." Joseph took a sip of water and sighed, "Cindy is not as popular as she thinks, she has many enemies, and she has a bad reputation among boys. She is because of her parents, and they are both almost out of the house, busy with their own things, and the daughter did not know what happened. The Bell Witch case that Andrew Jackson investigated before taking office also happened in Tennessee. I can't be sure about this Was the trouble related to the Bell Witch case? I asked Cindy to tell me the truth, but she always lied, and then I lost my patience and left her alone."
"Why don't you hypnotize Cindy?" the butler asked.
"She is very wary. The first requirement for hypnosis is trust and focus, which she doesn't have. What's more, her cronies always think I'm a liar and stay by her side all the time, or they are just curious about what exorcism is all about. In the case of the Bell Witch, although John, who killed the rabbit-headed and dog-body monster with a shotgun, died, the evil spirit still viciously uttered the curse. Seven years later, it will come for revenge. There is a group of new heretics, they I often go to the cave where the witch Bell lived to worship demons at night. I asked Cindy if she had anything to do with those people. She refused to admit it. Later, her ex-boyfriend told me that I knew that she used to go there often in order to maintain her figure. A yoga studio whose owner has ties to the new heretics."
Joseph shook his head helplessly when he said this, "Sometimes what makes people feel tired is not the work itself, but the people who work with you. She lacks adult guidance. I want to lead her to the right path, but she doesn't care. In the end I gave up on her."
"Cindy dead?" asked the butler.
"I don't know, she disappeared from my life anyway."
"Just like your mentor, Constantine, how many years have you not been in touch?"
"You look like you know a lot," Joseph sneered.
"Communication is very convenient now, how about writing an email to him?" The housekeeper said, "He is also in Italy now."
"I'm busy."
"Are you not free or don't want to see?" the housekeeper asked.
"It's because he doesn't want to see me." Joseph said coldly, "I'm not his favorite work."
"How can there be Indians in Tennessee? Don't they live on the reservation?" asked the steward.
"They were illegal immigrants from Mexico working on Cindy's father's farm."
"The New World is really a fantastic land."
"Who says no?" Joseph smirked and said, "I love America."
