Allen L Roland's Radio Weblog
My ongoing theme is always the truth , as I see it , and the exposure of lies, deception and manipulation wherever they exist. I remain firmly convinced that the world can no longer resist its innate urge to unite and co-operate with one another and we are very close to the point where war can no longer be an option if this transformation is to occur.

FOUR KARMIC SORROWS FACING AMERICA 

"Not the faults of others, nor what others have done or left undone, but one's own deeds, done and left undone, should one consider.": 50th Stanza from the Dhammapada (The Path of Wisdom)

Because of  the Cheney/Bush administration's illegal needless war with Iraq ~ where arrogance fully embraced incompetence and where thousands of innocent civilians have been, and continue to be  killed and maimed ~   America has reached the tipping point for its own sorrowful karmic downfall.  

I can feel it in my gut and no amount of Cheney/Bush posturing can remove the growing guilt and shame of America's illegal occupation and economic rape of Iraq ~ our karmic sorrows will indeed be severe. 

And just imagine how someone who voted for George Bush must feel ~ that is, if they are not still in denial. 

We are now beyond the point of no return for we have yet to acknowledge our own deeds ~ both done and left undone

Chalmers Johnson, Sorrows of Empire , calls it the coming of the  four sorrows and , it would appear, we are well on our way toward meeting these inevitable karmic messengers.

Allen L Roland

Four sorrows ... are certain to be visited on the United States. 

Chalmers Johnson, Sorrows of Empire  

Their cumulative effect guarantees that the U.S. will cease to resemble the country outlined in the Constitution of 1787.

First, there will be a state of perpetual war, leading to more terrorism against Americans wherever they may be and a spreading reliance on nuclear weapons among smaller nations as they try to ward off the imperial juggernaut.

Second is a loss of democracy and Constitutional rights as the presidency eclipses Congress and is itself transformed from a co-equal 'executive branch' of government into a military junta.

Third is the replacement of truth by propaganda, disinformation, and the glorification of war, power, and the military legions.

Lastly, there is bankruptcy, as the United States pours its economic resources into ever more grandiose military projects and shortchanges the education, health, and safety of its citizens.
