Sam Gerrans, RT: 'America is a bomb waiting to explode'
The United States is in decline. While not all major shocks to the system will be devastating, when the right one comes along, the outcome may be dramatic.
Not all explosives are the same. We all know you have to be careful with dynamite. Best to handle it gently and not smoke while you’re around it.
Semtex is different. You can drop it. You can throw it. You can put it in the fire. Nothing will happen. Nothing until you put the right detonator in it, that is.
To me, the US – and most of the supposedly free West – increasingly looks like a truck being systematically filled with Semtex.
WNU Editor: I do not hold this pessimistic outlook. The U.S. has suffered far more severe setbacks and catastrophes in the past .... and I have confidence that it will also survive the hard times that are probably just around the corner.
