Today's report is significant in so far as there are indications that the collapse of the dark forces is seemingly gathering pace, one way or another.

That we have reached this point without open war breaking out either in the US or between nations (other than Russia-Ukraine and the brief but unequal contest between Israel and Iran/Yemen - work with me here) is a testament to a great deal of restraint around the world.

I think this should be read in conjunction with Republic vs Empire! and End of the Special Relationship - Now Official?

I don't suppose that Ben has everything right (there's more than one interpretation of Trump's inconsistent behaviour), but if the EU-UK leaders are now indeed back-tracking on their so-called "green agendas" then that's a welcome step back toward realism and an inevitable marker of capitulation that we've all been waiting for.
