Where is Our Country Heading?

I woke up this morning and went to my e-mail to see what new things the day had in store for me. Right away I was swamped with mail that told of torture, conspiracy, lies and predications of wars, regime change, and a world that will cease to exist unless our government and other governments around the world stop this noxious carbon build-up in our atmosphere. I hear from my wife that my Brother-in-law is going to Europe and that he's been advised to make sure that he and his family make sure to not wear anything advertising the fact that they are American. Today I learned about Operation Northwood that was planned in 1962, http://www.gwu.edu/%7Ensarchiv/news/20010430/ for our government to set up an invasion of Cuba. While reading it, I see an uncanny resemblance to the events of 9/11 and I feel my brain groaning with disgust and anger. Is this really what's happening? Am I reading a script for another Roman Empire?

No, but I am realizing that I'm living in a new world, and that there is something happening, something that will be written about in the future as a time of change, when America either became a dictatorship, or came extremely close. We will read about how America transformed itself from a country with great ideas, and even though it wasn't perfect, it was still a model for democracies around the globe, to just another morally bankrupt nation. Just another nation that has reached its zenith and now has only its memories of glory to teach to its children.
