Agree that Cold War with Russia never ended and China and Islam are the major threats. Russia will continue to chip away st Eastern Europe and other former Soviet states. I don’t think they really want world war or even to attack Western Europe, but they want to play to the home crowd appeal and keep the West off balance
China and Islam on the other hand both want to rule/control the world. Chine will use various technologies to spy and sabotage our infrastructure and economy, while their first step is total control of South China Sea, then Taiwan. If we back down they will see that as showing our soft tummy in submission.
Islam has been at war with the West for over 1,000 years. The difference now is the West is paying them trillions of dollars for oil so they have money to spend on killing us. Without oil revenue they would ALL revert to third world dust bins. And they are fanatical in their determination to kill us whenever possible. As we continue to bring them in as immigrants and refugees ( no ME Christians allowed!) feed them, house them, educate them, they are supporting the violent groups who encourage violent attacks.
At a national level China is the greatest threat. At the personal level Islamic terrorism is the greater threat. One more reason to carry concealed as much as possible.
As others have stated, preparation should be ongoing for the basics and develop a way of life as independent as possible. Probably not possible for most to be completely independent resource wise but the more dependencies you can eliminate the more flexibility you have to adapt to drastic changes, whatever form they arrive in.
It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! ... Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!" - Patrick Henry in an address at St. John’s Church, Richmond, Virginia, on March 23, 1775.
