Flashbacks

 The war with Iran brings back flashbacks to the Vietnam War of the sixties and early seventies especially with talk of a draft.  I felt the Vietnam War was an unjust war.  We called it Johnson’s War.  My feelings about this war are the same.  I’m an idealist if I think there would be no more wars.  This war has kept me up at nights.  I feel this is a war of diversion to take our minds off the Epstein Files.  

I felt the Vietnam War was to take our minds off the failed policies of Johnson.  He started it because he wanted to keep the Gulf  of Tonkin safe for Lady Birds shipping lanes.  No war today is localized.  The Strait of Hormuz needs to stay open for oil shipments.  But today many of those oil takers go to China and Russia.  It’s not our responsibility.  

But the oil market is world wide with prices being controlled by the world market.  And like Vietnam many are wondering how we get out of it.  I’m not sure we can.  Days will stretch into weeks.  I try to listen to all sides of the debate, but right now this is Trump’s war.  And that is what keeps me awake at night.  Johnson often spoke of escalation and congress debated de-escalation.  

But unlike those who think the war brings us closer to the Second Coming, it might but not in ways people who think the way they are thinking.  It is Satan’s last gasp.  My Angels gave me one date—April 12.  This is the day Jesus was born over 2,0000 years ago.  And right now my focus is on the approach of what I say is the real Christmas.  So, is it all going to come to a head on April 12?

I wish I had more answers.  But I know my Angels will keep me safe.  I almost got out of bed early this morning around five thirty to smoke my pipe.  But I grabbed my laptop and went back to sleep watching pleasant vids and listening to quiet music,.  During the day I have enough distractions to take my focus off the war.  My pipe helps in that regard because I’ll smoke it and reflect on my Angels.  

I have to remember the Angels are here and God is watching.  I’m smoking my St. Nicholas pipe by Savinelli with some Good Morning  pipe tobacco by Cornell and Diehl.  My coffee this morning is Stumptown Holler Mountain coffee.  Thank you for your time and Peace and Love to each one of you.
