There feels to be a quickening, forces combining and headed in a dark direction, the destination unknown, moving away from the light.
On a personal level, this year ended, fraught with change. Health, finances, living conditions and relationships all in a state of flux. Some good, some bad. That’s life, right?
The world seemingly feels a lot more dangerous. The European “leaders” pushing military action against Mother Russia. The money continues to flow, the arms continue to flow, and the killing continues. Most western leaders are fine with spending money on destruction, and fine with allowing their own countries to fall into economic turmoil. I’ve lived somewhat of a long life, getting ‘long in the tooth,’ and there has not been a time when our respective governments push austerity on the people, but there is always money for war. Only if those negotiating ‘peace’ on the European stage, would grant Russia their national security needs, that is Ukraine as a neutral state, and the buffer zone created in the Donbass to remain. In simple terms, NATO should simply ‘bug out’ and begin proper relations. Though it is almost guaranteed that what is preventing this from happening is a small group of individuals who want to keep the money flowing.
Remember, war is a racket. And those in charge do not care about human life, only the bottom line - cynical but true.
In a different part of the planet, we have the on-going genocide in Gaza. The ethnic cleansing and slaughter of the Palestinian people goes unabated; the Israelis do not care and are intent on their expansion, known as the Greater Israel Project. We have not seen such a blatant disregard of International Law broadcast live on our devices. It’s morally reprehensible to do such harm to our fellow human beings. What should be commonly known, Israel is an ethno-supremacist state, and view the Palestinians as vermin, not more than insects to be swatted and destroyed. What is even more disgusting is that western governments around the world have been supporting this “project” all along.
December 14 was the Bondi Beach shooting killing 15 and injuring 40 others. Common sense dictates that this was a Zionist act, a false flag, to crack down on Australia’s mass protests of Israel’s genocide in Gaza. The opposition government used the tragedy to gain political traction, vying for a Royal Commission on antisemitism. Israel has done more than any person or country to create antisemitism with their 2-year extermination of the Palestinian people. There should be a Royal Commission into the extent of Zionist infiltration in the Australian government.
From June 13 to June 24 was the Israel-Iran war. (12-day war) Israel struck first and Iran retaliated. The “peace” was brokered by the US, ending in the US bombing “underground nuclear facilities” in Iran. Considering the relationship between Israel and the US, and President Trump’s bromance and subservience to Israel’s PM Netanyahu, many experts predict a full-scale war in Iran. Another war to look forward to in 2026.
When writing my end of year retrospective, I usually want to finish on a positive note, promoting peace and good fortune for my fellow human beings. This year, however, 2026 looks to escalate in conflict and major war.
Our planet is run by sociopaths, who view the planet as their chess board, people as pawns where human life means nothing. I believe this has always been the case, but now ‘they’ are shouting their destructive intent from the rooftops. What is most disgusting is that many of the sheep are following along over the precipice.
Hang tight and be strong.
