To be complete about the "not enough action" argument - pretty much all of us know there has been a lot of hot action going on in the US that is not made public in any news. A lot of this has to do with taking out DUMBS. It happens and nothing at all is said about it in any standard news forum.
Anons figure it out from quake data and storm sewer explosions and so on and there has been a good bit of it.
Then there is the known activity at GITMO. There's a lot of that too.
So it's not that nothing is happening. Stuff is happening. I think things were allowed to decline way too far and that it's past time for very public reprisals against the major criminals of the world.
Ahhh yes. Waking people up. When you can’t actually count victories, you rely on the old waking people up trope.
Oops. Enjoy your vacation. Can't count victories? Wow. Off you go.
What have you been doing the past 20+ years?
If you can't see the tide turning, I don't know what to say, beyond don't forget that small victories still count.
Of course the situation is still serious, but I'm not ready to throw in the towel yet, especially when actually getting close to a tipping point.
