The Watchman On The Wall

The Watchman On The Wall
Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Verse 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

On To Richmond, Boys!!!!!

Reader comment: Social justice warriors are never satisfied. If you give them an inch, they’ll take a mile. After demanding that southern states take down statues of Confederate figures, the activist Left is now targeting an iconic American president featured on Mount Rushmore.
On Monday, more than 200 SJW zealots held a protest inside the American Museum of Natural History in New York City to take down the supposedly “racist” statue of former President Theodore Roosevelt. The protest’s organizers, NYC Stands with Standing Rock and Decolonize This Place, also called for Columbus Day to be renamed Indigenous People’s Day.
Marching around the museum in a fit of self-righteous rage, protesters carried signs that read “BLACK LIVES MATTER,” “DECOLONIZE THIS MUSEUM,” and “ABOLISH WHITE SUPREMACY.”

One thing that upsets Your Watchman is the fact that the leftist rioters in Charlottesville and our nation are labeled protestors, marchers, demonstrators etc. by the “lame stream media.” I turned off my cable TV when this riot occurred because I could not bear to listen to the media’s propaganda. When I watched videos of the riot I saw anarchist and communist flags on the leftist side but there was no mention of that fact.  

One of the leading black liberation movement Frantz Fanon who wrote the book "Wretched of the Earth" said, "violence is a cleansing force for oppressed people." The left requires martyrs and the young woman in Charlottesville was the left's martyr. By the way, "Wretched of the Earth" is one of Obama's favorite books and he has never been called upon to account for that endorsement. Whereas Trump had to account for a fictional association with David Duke. Hence, that is one of the reasons I dislike the "lame stream" hypocritical media.

Friends, this rioting is exactly what happened in Germany in the late 1920s and early 1930s. Communists, liberals and social democrats battled it out on the streets of Germany with National Socialists and conservatives. We all know how that ended and the U.S. is headed in the same direction.

Below is a link to a long but excellent documentary entitled “The Soviet Story”.  It is the best documentary I have watched about the USSR and communism. You will see in the video that the communists destroyed Russian history, monuments and churches and that Stalin purged people in photographs. My point is, it is a communist tactic to erase a sovereign nation’s history. Putin is rebuilding the monuments and churches that the godless communists destroyed and thus rebuilding Russian history.

My friends, Robert E. Lee fought for states rights and decried slavery. 
It is a historical fact that the Morrill Tariff started the War of Northern Aggression. The U.S. government collected the builk of its taxes via tariffs that were a burden to the agricultural and exporting South. The South also subsidized Northern industry and railroads with these burdensome tariffs and got little economically in return. At the start of the War the GDP of the state of New York equaled the GDP of all of the southern states.

The graph above displays the oppressive effects of the Tariff of 1857 and 1861. We are looking at a tariff that swung between 20% and 48%. Check out the old articles I wrote on this blog about the Morrill Tariff and how it destroyed the South economically. A Virginia delegation urged Lincoln to lower the tariff because Virginia did not want to secede from the Union.  

Also, ask yourself this question. Is Trump pro-Israel. Well, the answer is, of course, yes. Keep in mind the Anti-fascists "marchers" and the Neo Nazis are not pro-Israel, they are anti-Israel. 

Finally, the Great American eclipse is coming August 21st. It will cut right through our nation and will be seen in every state of the union. God sends solar eclipses as a warning to the world. I believe the eclipse symbolizes the fact that division in our country is going to get worse. If we and other nations of the world insist on dividing Israel God will divide our nation one way or the other.

Pat Buchanan wrote this article. 

When the Dodge Charger of 20-year-old Nazi sympathizer James Alex Fields Jr., plunged into that crowd of protesters Saturday, killing 32-year-old Heather Heyer, Fields put Charlottesville on the map of modernity alongside Ferguson.

Before Fields ran down the protesters, and then backed up, running down more, what was happening seemed but a bloody brawl between extremists on both sides of the issue of whether Robert E. Lee's statue should be removed from Emancipation Park, formerly Lee Park.

With Heyer's death, the brawl was elevated to a moral issue. And President Donald Trump's initial failure to denounce the neo-Nazi and Klan presence was declared a moral failure.

How did we get here, and where are we going?

In June of 2015, 21-year-old Dylann Roof gunned down nine Christians at an evening Bible study in Charleston's Emanuel AME Church. A review of Roof's selfies and website showed him posing with the Confederate battle flag.

Gov. Nikki Haley, five years in office, instantly pivoted and called for removal of the battle flag from the Confederate war memorial on the State House grounds, as a "deeply offensive symbol of a brutally offensive past."

This ignited a national clamor to purge all statues that lionize Confederate soldiers and statesmen.

In Maryland, demands have come for removing statues and busts of Chief Justice Roger Taney, the author of the Dred Scott decision. Statues of Gen. "Stonewall" Jackson, President Jefferson Davis and Robert E. Lee have been pulled down in New Orleans.

After Charlottesville, pressure is building for removal of the statues of Lee, Jackson, Davis and Gen. "Jeb" Stuart from historic Monument Avenue in Richmond, capital of the Confederacy.

Many Southern towns, including Alexandria, Virginia, have statues of Confederate soldiers looking to the South. Shall we pull them all down? And once all the Southern Civil War monuments are gone, should we go after the statues of the slave owners whom we Americans have heroized?

Gen. George Washington and his subordinate, "Light Horse Harry" Lee, father of Robert E. Lee, were slave owners, as was Jefferson, James Madison, James Monroe and Andrew Jackson. Five of our first seven presidents owned slaves, as did James K. Polk, who invaded and annexed the northern half of Mexico, including California.

Jefferson, with his exploitation of Sally Hemings and neglect of their children, presents a particular problem. While he wrote in the Declaration of Independence of his belief that "all men are created equal," his life and his depiction of Indians in that document belie this.

And Jefferson is both on the face of Mount Rushmore and has a memorial in the U.S. capital.

Another term applied to the "Unite the Right" gathering in Charlottesville is that they are "white supremacists," a mortal sin to modernity. But here we encounter an even greater problem.

Looking back over the history of a Western Civilization, which we call great, were not the explorers who came out of Spain, Portugal, France, Holland and England all white supremacists?

They conquered in the name of the mother countries all the lands they discovered, imposed their rule upon the indigenous peoples, and vanquished and eradicated the native-born who stood in their way.

Who, during the centuries-long discovery and conquest of the New World, really believed that the lives of the indigenous peoples were of equal worth with those of the colonizers?

They believed European Man had the right to rule the world.

Beginning in the 16th century, Western imperialists ruled much of what was called the civilized world. Was not the British Empire, one of the great civilizing forces in human history, a manifestation of British racial superiority?

And if being a segregationist disqualifies one from being venerated in our brave new world, what do we do with (progressive) Woodrow Wilson, who thought "Birth of a Nation" a splendid film and who re-segregated the U.S. government?
In 1955, Prime Minister Churchill, imperialist to the core, urged his Cabinet to consider the slogan, "Keep England White."

Nor is a belief in the superiority of one's race, religion, tribe and culture unique to the West. What is unique, what is an experiment without precedent, is what we are about today.

We have condemned and renounced the scarlet sins of the men who made America and embraced diversity, inclusivity and equality.

Our new America is to be a land where all races, tribes, creeds and cultures congregate, all are treated equally, and all move ever closer to an equality of results through the regular redistribution of opportunity, wealth and power.

We are going to become "the first universal nation."

"All men are created equal" is an ideological statement. Where is the scientific or historic proof for it? Are we building our utopia on a sandpile of ideology and hope?
Nevertheless, on to Richmond!
