“The Smoking Gun of Irrefutable Evidence – 3 WTC Skyscrapers Destroyed on 9/11” with RG911 on The Mark Attwood Show RICHARD GAGE, AIA – ARCHITECT
Learn the Key Points of Evidence for the Explosive Demolitions
AUG 25, 2024
Join us for our latest and most effective 90-minute expose of the fraudulent NIST report on the “collapses” of the 3 World Trade High-Rises.
The Mark Attwood Show reaches tens of thousands in the UK. We are getting out there with the truth & facts about 9/11!
1. …that the third Tower, 47-story WTC Building 7, not hit by a plane, collapsed at 5:20pm on 9/11.
2. …that Building 7 fell at free-fall acceleration, which means that not one of its 81 columns gave any resistance. Where did they go?
3. …that Building 7 fell symmetrically — in the exact manner of a classic controlled demolition.
4. …that molten iron, the byproduct of the incendiary thermite, was found by first responders in pools throughout the debris pile of all 3 towers, and pouring out of the South Tower minutes prior to its collapse.
5. …that witnesses heard and felt explosions prior to the collapse of Building 7.
6. …that 186 First Responders were recorded hearing, seeing, feeling, explosions as well as flashes of light prior to the “collapses” of the Twin Towers.
7. …that the downward motion of the Twin Towers came down in 2/3 of free-fall acceleration, meaning that 90% of the structure was immediately removed.
8. …that most all of the 100,000 tons of steel in each tower was displaced laterally at 80mph, landing up to 600 feet in every direction, so it was not available to crush the building below.
9. …that most all of the 90,000 tons of concrete in each tower was pulverized to a fine powder and distributed laterally from river to river across Lower Manhattan in a 3″ thick blanket, so it also was unavailable to crush the building beneath it.
10. …that the US Geological survey and RJ Lee both independently confirm the discovery of what amounts to about 4 tons of previously molten iron microspheres in the WTC dust samples, indicating temperatures exceeding 2,800º F — and they don’t know where they could have possibly come from.
And, a bonus fact:
11. …that a team of 8 international scientists discovered what amounted to several tons of high-tech nano-thermite in the WTC dust samples, in the form of small red-gray chips that produce molten iron microspheres after ignition in a DSC at 850º F, with the same chemical signature as the iron microspheres discovered by the USGS.
Pass these fact around and help wake up the world!

SHOSHANA BRYEN: Forget The Hostage Talks — Win The War SHOSHANA BRYEN
August 24, 2024 – Not the hostages! Forget the so-called “hostage talks,” which are simply a mechanism for stretching out the war and increasing pressure on Israel. They are a sign of American desperation for a political victory. Secretary of State Antony Blinken, according to Egyptian sources, aims to “persuade both Hamas and Israel to embrace the American proposal without adding complications.”
Aside from the repugnant equation of “both” Hamas and Israel, “complications” are what are known as “war goals.” Israel had three at the outset: to secure the borders and the people of Israel; to uproot the Hamas military and governing capability in Gaza; and to get the hostages back. (RELATED: Israel Recovers Bodies Of Six Hostages From Gaza)
How is Israel doing?
If you want a political opinion about Israel’s war, ask a pol. If you want a military opinion, ask a military officer.
John Spencer, Chair of Urban Warfare Studies at the Modern War Institute at West Point, gives us a starting place. Writing in Foreign Affairs, he says: “War is the pursuit of political objectives … (and) has a start and a finish, so its progress can be assessed based on how close each side has come to meeting its political objectives. By this measure, it is Israel, not Hamas, that now holds the advantage.”
Political objectives? The United States told Israel it could not achieve political objectives through warfare. Spencer disagrees. “Brute force is what gives Hamas the ability to rule over the population of Gaza. If it succeeds (in eliminating Hamas’s military capabilities), Israel can prevent Hamas from reclaiming its pre–October 7 position.”
Andrew Fox, a former British paratrooper and Sandhurst senior lecturer, who is cognizant of strong U.S. opposition to Israel entering Rafah in southern Gaza, asks in The Spectator: “Why go into Rafah at all? Simply because the aim is to destroy Hamas. That involves finding and degrading their capability, and that capability hinges on the supply tunnels from Rafah into Egypt, some of which run 2 km beyond the Egyptian border … The alternative is to face inestimable casualties.”
(Digression: Now you know why the Egyptian “mediators” are opposed to Israel controlling the southern side of the Rafah crossing. It would: 1. expose the depth of Cairo’s partnership with Hamas, which is allied with Iran, and 2. prevent the restoration of that financially lucrative partnership later.)
[Ed.: IINO’s military upper echelon takes their orders from the State Department, and that is why they will never win a war. ‘Israel’ is a ‘banana republic’ and not ” a light unto the nations” as God once said. “Jewish life is cheapest in IINO!” (Quoting myself)]
Trump Will Win in a Landslide – Do NOT Believe the Main Stream Media’s Pollsters! (VIDEO 36:51) By Grant Stinchfield
Aug. 26, 2024 9:30 am – The mainstream media is back to its old tricks.
They are now pushing phony polls to show Kamala Harris has tightened the race and/or even pulled ahead.
Be warned, they are fake. These polls do not take into account a few factors that lead me to believe Trump is up by double digits.
I will show you why I believe Trump is up big, and we even found Democrats like James Carville, who unknowingly exposed the polls as fake.
[Ed.: Yes (if there is an election in 73 more days,) Trump will win in a landslide! But then, they will announce themselves the winner in another steal. Whoever wins, loses.]
One Choice: Fight to Win by Victor Rosenthal
August 26, 2024 – Yesterday Israel preempted a potentially disastrous attack by Hezbollah on the center of the country. Thirty minutes before launch time, our aircraft destroyed literally thousands of launchers, rockets, and drones that were aimed at various targets including IDF headquarters in Tel Aviv and sensitive installations in the North.
Despite being an impressive technical and tactical achievement, it does not herald a new, more aggressive Israeli military policy. A column in the Israel Hayom newspaper this morning was titled “Preemptive operation, not preemptive attack,” and that sums it up. The 100 aircraft that were involved were simply a more elaborate and expensive Iron Dome. Admittedly the enemy lost more assets than the rockets and drones it had planned to use; launchers and installations were also destroyed. But the objective of the operation was entirely defensive. Great care was taken to ensure that it would be seen as a “legitimate” response to aggression. Israel waited until just before Hezbollah was expected to fire, and the attack was limited to southern Lebanon. As is always the case when we play pure defense, the enemy has learned lessons and will try again.
It was telling that Israel and the US both indicated that the US knew about it in advance, and that the attack was “fully coordinated” with the US. It’s well known that the US forbids Israel to preemptively attack its enemies, so it was important to present it as limited and “intended to prevent escalation.” But it should be noted that Hezbollah did succeed to launch some 300 weapons at the northern part of Israel, from which tens of thousands of citizens have become refugees. The defensive strike still did not enable them to return home. No purely defensive operation can.
American policy continues to have as its top objective the prevention of escalation. The pressure to reach a cease-fire agreement with Hamas continues at a high level. Although they are often presented as “hostage return” deals, no proposal has been seriously considered that allows more than a minority of the living hostages in the hands of Hamas to return. The Americans have made it clear that they intend for any temporary cease-fire to become permanent, or at least extended; and this implies the continued rule of Hamas and the abandonment of more than half of the hostages.
Israel cannot allow a situation to continue in which large numbers of her citizens from both the northern and southern parts of the country have been driven from their homes and can’t return for fear of rocket attacks and 7 October-style invasions. Essentially, a third of our country has been occupied by our enemies since 7 October. This is the status quo that American-brokered diplomatic “solutions” will perpetuate.
American forces have been sent to the region to prevent escalation by either side while they pursue diplomatic initiatives. But today Israeli deterrence is at its lowest point in years, and any American-brokered compromises with Hamas, Hezbollah, or Iran, will be disastrous to us.
If the Democrats win the US presidency, it’s expected that the pro-Iranian policy begun under Obama will gather steam. The Iranian regime is not sitting idly by, but is galloping toward the finish line in developing its nuclear umbrella. Israel can’t afford to wait and hope for a more friendly administration next January, which may or may not materialize.
Israel lost her way strategically at some point, when her military leadership buckled under American pressure, abandoned Ben Gurion’s philosophy of taking the war to her enemies, and began to fight, as Gadi Taub said, “with a shield but without a sword.” We have paid a huge price for this, and it’s not sustainable. Now we are at the point at which we have no choice but to fight to win.
[Ed.: Under the present leftist military leadership, fighting to win is not in the cards, it’s not going to happen. They will continue to take their marching orders from the US State Department (the enemy).]
Trump Supporter WOWS Entire Audience With An EXPLOSIVE Speech, Gets A Standing Ovation [19:14]

British and French ministers remove hostage pins before PA meeting, accused of racism By MOSHE PHILLIPS
British and French ministers removed hostage support pins before meeting a Palestinian leader, sparking accusations of racism and appeasement. Opinion
AUGUST 26, 2024 The Jerusalem Post – The decision by the British and French foreign ministers to remove the yellow pins supporting the hostages before meeting a Palestinian Authority leader was not only appalling and cowardly – it was also downright racist.
UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy and French Foreign Minister Stéphane Séjourné wore the yellow pins when they met with Israel’s foreign minister last Friday. However, they removed the pins before meeting with PA Prime Minister Mohammed Mustafa later that same day.
This fear of offending a Palestinian Arab leader naturally calls to mind the behavior of the British and French toward the Nazis in the 1930s. Obviously there are differences, but nobody can deny that the spirit of appeasement displayed by the British and French this past weekend echoes some of the worst periods in recent history.
The British and French officials last weekend had an opportunity to show that their government had learned the lessons of the 1930s and were ready to confront, rather than appease, a leader of a pro-terror regime. Instead, they demonstrated that they have learned nothing from history, choosing to echo Chamberlain, not Churchill.
The conduct of the British and French is also a slap in the face of the United States. There are at least eight Americans being held hostage by Hamas in Gaza. That yellow pin represents them as much as it represents the Israeli and other non-American hostages. Removing that pin is, in effect, saying that the British and French governments couldn’t care less about the fate of the American hostages.
Not only was this an act of craven appeasement and an insult to every American; it was also profoundly racist.
Meaning behind pin removal
By removing their pins, the British and French implied that a Palestinian Arab leader cannot be expected to oppose kidnapping, starving, and torturing innocent civilians. They’re saying there is something inherently barbaric about Palestinian Arabs that compels them to support evil hostage-takers and gang-rapists.
If the British and French foreign ministers had met with any other foreign leader, presumably they would have kept the pins on. But the minute a Palestinian Arab walked into the room, they said to each other, “This guy’s a Palestinian Arab – so he must support the hostage-holders. We better take off our pins so we don’t offend him! He can’t help it; he might get mad if he sees that we’re against holding innocent people hostage!”
If that’s not racist, what is?

Coup has already Occurred, 2024 Election Will Not Happen w/ Naomi Wolf SARAH WESTALL
AUG 24, 2024 – My latest show with Naomi Wolf has hit a nerve. It’s trending on many platforms and several people reached out to let me know that they have independently come to the same conclusion as Wolf.
I don’t know if they are correct. My own thoughts are that they will cheat if they think the public will believe it. Thus fake polls are being used to convince the public Harris/Walz are ahead and will win. Together the fake polls, ballot harvesting, rigging machines, etc… constitutes cheating. I believe this will be their first option.
However, if they think they cannot cheat in a reasonable fashion then I believe what Wolf and others are saying may come true.
Regardless, we are in for a lot more chaos if either scenario ends up being accurate.
In the show, we discuss much more than the election. She also explains why she says the coup has already taken place. That the country has already fallen. She explains what that means. It is really her main point.
Here are the details of the show:
Title: Coup has already Occurred, 2024 Election Will Not Happen w/ Naomi Wolf
Description: Naomi Wolf joins me to discuss the 2024 election season and all the strangeness. She predicts that the election won’t take place; that an event of some sort will cause it to be suspended. This will ultimately usher in a communist dictatorship led by the democrats. She claims that in reality the coup has already taken place and she elaborates on why she believes this. It is true that we are dealing with people who are irrational and power hungry. A combination that could ultimately lead to disasters of unimaginable proportions.

[Ed.: I agree with Naomi Wolf. But if we will have an election, Trump will win by a landslide. Then it will be announced that whats-her-name won the election. This is the new Democrat election process: Whoever wins, loses.]
A critical review of the Democrat Convention Jack Engelhard
First, Kamala. Nary an original thought, she has been properly schooled in the language of blah, blah, blah. Op-ed.
Aug 25, 2024, 10:55 AM (GMT+3) INN – One speaker after another, blah, blah, blah
They all took turns making the case for Kamala Harris, a woman least qualified to be president of anything, least of all president of the United States.
Can they be serious? Of course not. In their hearts they know she’s a dunce, but she is all they’ve got, so they will do anything to sell her as the best and the brightest.
That is how it works in their politics. Dazzle the people with clichés and they will buy the Brooklyn bridge.
So they spoke, to the music of thunderous applause, not a word of truth, but one tall tale after another, during the monotonous speechifying.
They lie as naturally as they breathe.
All you heard was blah, blah, blah. Hoorah brayed the gullible believers. Sycophants united at the DNC.
Barack, Michele, Joe, Jill, Nancy, Pete, Chuck, Bill, Hillary, that guy Walz, and of course that woman AOC, who thundered louder than the rest of them a warning, that in order to save yourself from being branded a racist, a bigot, a threat to democracy, you, America, must embrace and adore Kamala Harris.
Strangely, Kamala’s pitch, her manifesto, harks on her undoing the damage that had been done over the past four years…her four years, that is, while she and Joe Biden ran the show!
Therefore, vote for Kamala for more of the same. That’s the deal?
Vote for Trump at your peril. they say…and by the way, should Trump (hopefully) win, how many times do you think they will they try to impeach him?
They did it before, they will do it again.
Joy at this Convention? Rather, anger, rage, and hatred…and since there is no fact-checking from the media, they can get away with anything and everything.
There is nothing to stop them, as there wasn’t back in 2020, when, later, in a column, Living with the crime of the century, we wrote, “The biggest losers are the American people. Had they known the unsavory facts about Hunter and his father, Joe, Trump would be enjoying his second term…and it does not matter if you love or hate Trump.
“What matters is that the 2020 election was cooked by the media to deny voters the right to the truth, so they voted eyes wide shut.”
So here we go again? Yes. So long as the Silent Majority remains silent, those politicians will continue to pontificate their time-tested baloney.
Blather like this, for example, from Kamala herself upon her acceptance speech Thursday night…promising to “unite America” and to “push for a new way forward.”
Where have we heard this before?
Platitudes like that go back to Cicero, and to Joe Biden who divided the country after he vowed to unite the country.
With the same malarkey, he passes the baton to Kamala Harris, the queen of clichés. Nary an original thought, she has been properly schooled in the language of blah, blah, blah.
No one did it better than Irwin Corey. Remember him? He was hilarious. His shtick was to step on stage in formal wear and sneakers and bill himself “professor,” plus, “the world’s foremost authority.” As such, he would commence to babble the most highfalutin phrases in academic-speak, spritzing nonsense after nonsense.
But this was the trick. It sounded real.
He even fooled you, until you caught on. There is the story about his being invited to address a convention of psychiatrists…who gave him a standing ovation.
They bought the shtick.
Sounds like Kamala and her Democrats. Only they are not comedians. They intend to run your life and your world, and they are deadly serious about this.
America, Silent Majority, you have been warned.
Israel-Hamas ceasefire would breach international law Prof. Louis René Beres
International law has precise form and content. It cannot be invented and reinvented by terror groups. Such law does not support the hope-based adoption of cease-fire agreements between sovereign states and criminal gangs.
Aug 25, 2024, 12:25 AM (GMT+3) INN – Israel and Hamas could still reach an agreement on a “cease fire.” But because the jihadist terror organization still regards all of Israel as “Occupied Palestine,” this agreement will almost certainly fail. Accordingly, for both Israel and the “international community,” there will be injurious consequences for international justice. Some of these consequences would be “force-multiplying” and irremediable.
It’s high time for realistic understandings of these urgent issues.
The immediate effect of any anticipated cease-fire agreement would be the defiling bestowal of legal legitimacy on insidious terror-criminals. The longer-term effect would be to undermine the authority of international law in general and to enlarge the prospects of a continuous regional war.
In principle, at least, even such grievous effects could be acceptable if accompanied by a return of hostages (criminally-abducted citizens from over twenty separate countries, including a one-year old Israeli child), but no such humanity should be expected from Hamas. If perchance Hamas did actually return some of the still-living hostages, it would assuredly compensate for this “generosity” by attempting to repeat October 7th atrocities at later dates and in different venues.
There are further legal details. No authoritative system of law can encourage or allow accommodation between a legitimate national government and a barbarous criminal organization. Though any promised cessation of hostilities could conceivably benefit Israel as well as Hamas, the cumulative costs for both Israelis and Palestinians would plausibly exceed anticipated gains. Even if Israel could expect the return of some hostages, Hamas (the Islamic Resistance Movement) would feel incentivized to launch future hostage-taking operations. Lest anyone forget, Hamas is motivated at its core by “criminal intent” or mens rea.
Hamas is an illegal organization. This inherent illegality is deducible from the far-reaching criminalization of terrorism discoverable under binding international law. Such a primal status can never be correctly overlooked by third party agreement brokers (e.g., the United States), however well-intentioned.
Before the ancient Hebrew laws of Deuteronomy, there already existed determinable rules of warfare. Today, these “peremptory” norms (rules that are over riding and ought never to be broken) bind insurgent fighting forces, not just traditionally uniformed national armies. Conspicuously, these rules stem from the St. Petersburg Declaration (1868), a codification that followed still-earlier limitations identified at the First Geneva Convention (1864).
Under longstanding international law, “the means that can be used to injure an enemy are not unlimited.” No matter how allegedly just the cause, the willful maiming, rape and murder of noncombatants is always a crime. The ends can never justify the means. Regarding the deaths of many Palestinian Arab civilians occasioned by Israeli bombardments, these harms are not witting violations of the law of war. They represent the wholly unintentional result of necessary counter-terrorist operations, not of “criminal intent.” In Gaza, such harms are the collateral outcome of Hamas’ resort to “human shields.” The technical name for this ongoing Islamist crime is “perfidy.”
Whenever Hamas or other Palestinian terrorists claim the right to “any means necessary,” they intend to deceive. Even if their corollary claims of “national self-determination” were in some way reasonable, there would still remain distinctly tangible limits on permissible targets and legitimate weapons.
Any calls to “Free Palestine from the River to the Sea” are exterminatory on their face. In law, such calls are always an expression of “intent to commit genocide.” Reciprocally, whatever one hears from so-called protestors, Israel-inflicted harms upon perfidy-shielded Palestinian Arab populations have nothing to do with genocide. These harms remain the unavoidable correlates of Israel’s inextinguishable right to self-preservation.
International law has precise form and content. It cannot be invented and reinvented by terror groups or by aspiring states (here, “Palestine”) to accommodate narrow geo-strategic interests. Back on November 29, 2012, the Palestinian Authority (PA) was upgraded by the U.N. General Assembly to the status of a “nonmember observer state,” but the PA subsequently declared itself nonexistent.

CHAPTER 33: Weaponizing Children: The Gospel of Yuval Harari by Linda Goudsmit
Space Is No Longer the Final Frontier—Reality Is*
August 25, 2024
Globalism is a replacement ideology that seeks to reorder the world into one singular, planetary Unistate, ruled by the globalist elite. The globalist war on nation-states cannot succeed without collapsing the United States of America. The long-term strategic attack plan moves America incrementally from constitutional republic to socialism to globalism to feudalism. The tactical attack plan uses asymmetric psychological and informational warfare to destabilize Americans and drive society out of objective reality into the madness of subjective reality. America’s children are the primary target of the globalist predators.
Klaus Schwab and fellow members of the World Economic Forum (WEF) embrace a vision for the future that is difficult to fully grasp, but it is essential that people attempt to do just that. Yuval Harari, Israeli historian, professor, and darling of the WEF, provides a glimpse of that future and of Humanity 2.0 in his books and lectures.
Schwab and Harari embrace globalism’s supremacist replacement ideology as an evolutionary inevitability, in the same way Marx and Engels believed it was a historical inevitability that a socialist revolution would overturn and replace capitalism.
The term historical inevitability was introduced by philosopher Isaiah Berlin in his lecture “Historical Inevitability,”[i]delivered on May 12, 1953, at the London School of Economics and Political Science. Berlin argued against historical inevitability because the view that “the world has a direction” requires deterministic laws. Berlin considered determinism implausible because it requires radical changes in people’s “moral and psychological categories.”
Berlin’s view does not dissuade the humanitarian hucksters at the WEF from hawking globalism’s Unistate and Humanity 2.0, the artificial expediting of the evolutionary process, as historical and evolutionary inevitabilities. In their arrogance, globalist supremacists insist that their ideology is superior to any other ideology or social infrastructure, and will inevitably dominate the world. It is a very convenient philosophy of life for megalomaniacs and sociopaths.
Let’s examine Yuval Harari’s views in his own words, delivered at the World Economic Forum’s Annual Meeting in Davos, January 24, 2020:[ii]
Man Hilariously Roasts Clueless DNC Attendees, Including Big-Name Politicians, to Their Face with Provocative Questions and Their Responses are Quite Telling (VIDEO 20:00) By Cullen Linebarger
Aug. 24, 2024 9:45 am = One brave individual decided to venture into the DNC Convention sewer in Chicago and brutally troll the delegates with the pressing questions that needed to be asked.
A man affiliated with the YouTube channel No Cap on God met with several prominent attendees this week and recorded his encounters on both X and YouTube. Some of the “famous” people he met up with included lead Trump persecutor New York Attorney General Letitia James, Senator Raphael Warnock (R-GA), Congressman Jerry Nadler (D-NY), former CNN propagandist Chris “Fredo” Cuomo, and Star Trek filmmaker J.J. Abrams.
The people the infiltrator spoke with had no clue they were being made fun of, and some even treated him like a member of the Democratic family.
He asked them a series of questions while occasionally saying, “That is so brat,” in the video to poke fun at them. For context, the Kamala Harris campaign has fully embraced the TikTok “BRAT” theme to make her more relatable to young Americans, particularly on TikTok. Singer Charli XCX coined the new slang in her album “Brat” and described it as “You’re that girl who is a bit messy and loves to party and maybe says dumb things sometimes. She’s honest, blunt, and a little bit volatile. That’s Brat.”
She went on to describe Harris as someone perfectly resembling “brat”, thus contributing to her image makeover.
The provocative questions the man asked included:
“Would you rather have democracy or access to abortion?”
“Can we please, this year, be so brat to have a tax rate for rich white men?
“Who are the cuties in the Democratic party who are speaking?”
“Child tax credits for dogs?
“Who has the bigger lightsaber, Donald Trump or Joe Biden?”
“Give me your best pick-up line.”
As one will see below, their responses to these pressing questions are VERY telling.
We Are Out of Our Minds Sean Fitzpatrick
America is growing increasingly comfortable with the unaccountable and the irrational. Kamala Harris’s acceptance speech was just another piece in that scattered puzzle that threatens to be our national destiny.
August 24, 2024 – When Kamala Harris accepted the nomination for President of the United States on Thursday night at the Democratic National Convention, she wore black. Many were expecting her to sport the white pants suit that Hillary Clinton made “a thing” to signify the women’s suffrage movement as she attempted, like a bird against an office window, to break that “highest, hardest glass ceiling.” Many women in the crowd wore white for just this reason.
But Harris wore black, with square shoulders, wide lapels, and velvet bow, in a look that was far from the theme of joy shouted from the DNC rooftops. It was a somber suit, even a sinister one—which gets at the darkness of the political theater-of-the-bizarre unfolding in the United States. Harris’s suit was mournful, despite her now-signature “brat” grin. It was funereal, vampiric. And, yes, I just said vampiric, for this is a candidate and a campaign that is out for blood—and America has lost its collective mind to the point of voting for blood drinkers while hailing them as champions of freedom.
Kamala Harris is fond of beginning sentences with, “Let me be clear.” The one thing that is not clear about her is how she (and we) got here. What has Kamala Harris done to win such praise, to be hyped as one of the most qualified people to run for president in history? It just doesn’t add up when you consider her record of unpopularity, incompetency, and awkwardness. Her meteoric rise is totally fabricated, totally forced, and totally fake. While Harris and Walz relentlessly call Trump and Vance “weird,” what’s weird is all on their side.
But if weird is a watchword of this election, let’s remember the etymological Anglo-Saxon origin of that word: “wyrd,” meaning, fate. There is something like fate in this, and we might also recall Thomas Jefferson’s adage, the government you elect is the government you deserve. While the mind-bending contradictions are flying fast and furiously, America is growing increasingly comfortable with the unaccountable and the irrational. Kamala Harris’s acceptance speech was just another piece in that scattered puzzle that threatens to be our national destiny.
