We authentic Christians have our enemies in the world and in the Church, those who are anti-faith, anti-life, anti-family. They are the liberals, progressives and modernists. And they are all over. They dominate the life of society and the world, especially entrenched in the West. And we seem to be losing this war.
But God is at work. Now our enemies are fighting among themselves!
First there are the woke liberals on campuses, especially in the West. They have ruined traditional education and are churning out a bunch of morons. But now, due to the war in Gaza, with many standing with Palestinians against Israel, woke liberal students and woke liberal professors are fighting with woke liberal school establishments. Students have invaded campus spaces, and violence is on the rise.
Second, there is the USA and Israel. Both the USA and Israel are oppressive occupying powers. They have been staunch allies all this time, with the USA supporting Israel militarily and diplomatically. The USA in the Security Council has vetoed hundreds of UN resolutions against Israel in the past. In a recent vote in the UN Security Council on allowing the UN General Assembly to vote on Palestine to become a full UN member, only the USA vetoed it. But now, with President Biden worried about losing the vote of the left in the coming US Presidential elections, he has opposed Israel’s planned incursion into Rafah in Gaza. Give the intransigence of Prime Minister Netanyahu of Israel, Biden has threated to withhold military weapons. From all-out blind unquestioning support, there is now this deep rift between the USA and Israel.
Third, there are the Democrats. They are the Democratic Party of Death, which loves abortion and LGBT and are anti-God. President Biden, a fake Catholic, is the most pro-abortion President in American history. His whole Federal administration is rabidly committed to putting down pro-lifers, and parents concerned for their children, and devout Catholics, even calling them domestic terrorists. Now Democrats are deeply divided over support for Israel in its current war against Palestinians in Gaza. Democrat liberals who always vote for Biden, even considering his senility, are now no longer unequivocally for him.
Fourth, there is NATO (the North Atlantic Treaty Organization). NATO is the military arm of an oppressive colonialist West that intends to dominate in a unipolar world. In its fight against Russia, NATO has given all-out support to Ukraine, which Russia invaded in a special military operation. NATO has 32 member-states, 30 European and 2 North American (the USA and Canada). As a military alliance, all members are committed to go to war against any country that goes to war against any of its members. But there are cracks in the alliance. Not all members want to go against Russia, like Hungary. And not all members are pro-Israel, like Turkey. Many countries disapprove of a war against Russia, and are fearful of being dragged by NATO into a global conflagration.
So when our enemies fight among themselves, do not get involved, and just enjoy the show. And remember: we are always on the side of Christ as against those who promote the culture of DEATH.
Salve Regina.
