To translate it, you might have technology, banksters, money supply, industry, high GDP, etc…, but we have a culture that survived in time and can wait for revenge, which will, when that time comes, be served as a cold dish…( look Vietnam and Afghanistan…)

How this has happened?

Well, in the West, you always, but, unfortunately only from time to time, find visionary people who feel the necessity to do social work, with a conviction that the attention of any man should be a sense of duty and obligation to serve the state. Look at the British Empire and particularly to the personality of Alfred Milner. He was that visionary man who contributed deeply to the longevity of the Empire by creating crucial organisations that would support it! Because he devoted his life to the social benefit! One of the crucial organisations was now famous Royal Institute of International Affairs or Chatham House, precursor of Council of Foreign Affairs. That institution today surpasses the significance and influence of Great Britain. Not to mention Round Table, Lions, etc… Where the trouble started is when even Milner chose people who would continue to spread and advance his ideas.

That is explained by the following passage of Professor Quigley:

” Lack of perspective in the critical moments, failure to use inteligence and common sense, their tendency to fall back on standardised social reactions and verbal cliches in a crisis, their tendency to place power and influence into hands chosen by friendship rather than merit, their oblivion to the consequences of their actions, their ignorance of the point of view of persons in other countries or of persons in other classes in their own country-these things, it seems to me, have brought many of the things they also hold dear close to disaster.

To continue

In this group( Milner one), there  were people who must command the admiration and affection of all who know of them. On the other hand, in this group were persons whose lives have been a disaster to our way of life. Unfortunately, in the long run,  both in the group and in the world, the influence of the later kind has been stronger and prevailed than the influence of the former!”

History was altered by different foundations( I wrote about Reece Committee of the US Congress), and it deprived the people of learning of errors of the past, making it impossible to correct the tactics of the future!

That is why we got between other disasters into the Iranian war!

After the Iranian war started, I thought to give some time to develop. To finish fast and then, afterwards, to analyse and share some of the thoughts. Well, that war is still going on and off. Actually, it is still on as no deal has been established… Even one of those war mongering senators died of heart attack while promoting it…

There were some timeouts, and then bombing restarted again, and again… A lot of people, those greedy ones, found their interests developing greatly with bombing going on and off! ( go back to the beginning of this arti le and read it again!) Stock exchange and futures betting left some people with a lot of profits… No one cares about ordinary people.

Those who absolutely have time and no watches!

Where has that time come from?

Iranian civilization is between 5000 and 7000 years old! So, to still be there alive shows that therebarebothwe values and virtues ruling there.

One is patience, explained beautifully by Rumi.

“Patience is not sitting and waiting. It is foreseeing! It is looking at the thorn and seeing the rose. It is looking at night and seeing the day…“

With this everything one needs to know about this and any other war started by the Empire of Lies, that was not at all like that at the beginning, is here.

The rest, everyday events are the product of the above misjudgement, bad human resource decisions, and ultra wrong policies done by greedy, hypocritical, and ignorant creatures, thinking that they are doing politics!
