The Historical Perspective

Caesar of Rome "Crossed the Rubicon River" to win a skirmish, but lost his life - "Et tu Brutus?" When you look back into history, you find many leaders fell, along with their citizens, from making stupid decisions.

Perhaps the dumbest and most "stupid" decision in the 21st century belongs to Angela Merkel of Germany. When 1.5 million migrants knocked on her country's door, instead of repelling them, she invited them to conquer her country. The same holds true with Great Britain. Okay, the same holds true with France. In fact, the same holds true with all of 21st century Europe. It's being overrun with invaders that neither care for the rule of law, nor do they subscribe to Western Culture. In fact, they plan to displace it and replace it. Europe has defeated itself by its own hand.

You can call it "Cultural Suicide…Linguistic Suicide…Religious Suicide…Political Suicide…." No matter what you call it; it still equates to the death of your country and way of life.

During the disastrous four Biden years, he invited over 15 to 20 million illegal aliens into America. None of them were vetted. None of them brought any skills or education. None of them were/are compatible with America's cultural or political systems. They are establishing their own cities/cultures inside our country. In other words, whomever on Biden's staff thought 20 million illegal migrants from the Middle East or Africa would blend into America seamlessly - proves himself an historical idiot.

When you look at the racial strife we've endured for the past 60 years since Rosa Parks wouldn't give up her seat… and forward to Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Reid and Michelle Obama denouncing every White American as "racist trash", you must appreciate that allowing millions of Muslims into America would be a nightmare of religious and cultural incompatibility. But Biden's handlers did it. And now, we're not only stuck with it, but we've "Crossed the Religious Rubicon" into Islamic terror. It's now in our back yard…actually it's in our kitchen(s).

A very wise reader explained it to me this way:

"I recently read that about 2.5 million illegals have left our country, over a million doing so 'voluntarily'. This likely represents less than 10 percent of the total inside our borders. Do you see any solution(s) for the 'demographic time bomb'?

"As Jesse Jackson, while leading a protest some years ago near Stanford University, repeated this chant with his followers: "Hey, ho; Hey ho, Western Civ (sic) has got to go". So it goes in a post-Christian America with, as warned by Thomas Jefferson, an uneducated electorate, and a Constitution, according to John Adams, which is only effective for a 'moral society'.

"According to Christopher Rufo, 'one of the most effective journalists and filmmakers in the country' according to Tucker Carlson, his America's Cultural Revolution: How the Radical Left Conquered Everything lays out how all of our institutions, as per the plan of Communist Antonio Gramsci, have been taken over gradually by those who hate or resent America, hoping to reshape it into a socialist Nirvana which never has, nor ever will. offer the peace and harmony it promises. Historically, its legacy including the deaths of 100 million citizens of Soviet Russia, Communist China, Cambodia, et al, at the hands of their leaders.

"I suggest you read the Rufo book. He points out how some of those going back more than 50 years such as Herbert Marcuse, Angela Davis, and Derrick Bell, the first Black professor at Harvard Law (think DEI) 'greased the skids' for what is happening today. I haven't finished the book to read Rufo's 'Conclusion' chapter, but he agrees with us that 'the horse may have been out of the proverbial barn' for some time, and possibly not amenable to getting it safely back into its 'stall'.

"Historically, you may also want to read about the Frankfurt School, a leftist organization which emigrated from Germany sometime in the 1930s, landing at Columbia University. Our educational system, with a few exceptions, has been overtaken by the basic philosophy of one of Education's icons, John Dewey, who hoped to make 'good citizens' of our students, rather than those who are necessarily well-educated in the 3Rs, although this may beg the definition of a 'good citizen'.

"In considering the Gestalt of future world affairs, a quote attributed to FDR once again comes to mind: "Those who believe important world events happen by chance would be wrong. We planned them that way." And from David Rockefeller's autobiography; "To those who would charge me and my family with supporting a cabal planning a world government, I would plead guilty, and am proud of it".

"Given a comparison with other nations once steeped in Western Culture, we are still at the top, but much has been shaved off the summit. Someone has said, "We are pygmies, standing on the shoulders of giants". Tom Brokaw's book, The Greatest Generation, includes our post-WW2 parents in the title during a time which may represent the apogee for life in America."

As it stands in December of 2025, America is being killed by the likes of Zohran Mamdani, a refugee, Muslim, Communist from Uganda as he devolves New York City into an Islamic caliphate. Make no mistake: that's his "Prime Directive" and a whole bunch of New Yorkers who don't know their history fell right into his lap. Same with Muslim Ilhan Omar in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She's as crooked as Al Capone and Jack the Ripper combined.

Did you notice the massacre over in Sydney, Australia, yesterday: what do you want to bet that a Muslim father and son team, who hated Jews and wanted to eradicate them, just killed 15 Jews at a Hanukah Festival and wounded over 30 as of this writing.

Australian journalist Ben Doherty reported, "The killing went on so long, those fleeing had time to scream "they're reloading" as they scrambled for any place of safety they could find. Those who could not were pitilessly gunned down. "I saw children being targeted," one man, who declined to give his name, told the Guardian. "I saw old people who couldn't move being shot. It was a massacre. There was blood everywhere. "It's unbelievable. This doesn't happen here. Not here." At least 15 people were killed and nearly 30 hospitalized after a mass shooting at Sydney's famed Bondi Beach on Sunday, a terrorist attack described by the prime minister as "an act of evil antisemitism, terrorism that has struck the heart of this nation."

Here's a sobering reality check: we've got 4,000,000 plus followers of this savage religion right here in America. They mean business. And, with over 25 million illegal, unvetted aliens in our midst - any one of us can and WILL be their next target.

Unless Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, Kristi Noem, Tom Homan and Pete Hegseth can extricate 25 million illegal refugees and Muslims from our midst, all of us Americans are vulnerable to instant death by terrorists in our midst.

We have crossed the "Cultural/Religious/Incompatible Rubicon" of history. And, we're going to pay heavily for it in the coming decades.
