About twenty years ago, at a Bible study I met and became instant
friends with a young Filipino professional, Jerome, who stopped in
Southern California briefly to visit friends, before continuing on
to his destination on the East Coast. This Christian brother and
I had an immediate bond - for we shared a common interest in world
affairs as they relate to Scripture.
Especially magazines published by the cult church, Worldwide Church of God. We both recognized that, while their theology was far off base, their take on world affairs relating to Scripture which was taught by their Ambassador College and published in their magazine, Plain Truth, was worth reading.
Yesterday I published a new blog titled "Mount Rushmore National Memorial - Why These Four Presidents?" And Jerome shared his thoughts on the issue, which I found very interesting. He wrote to me:

Belated Happy 4th, Bill! Hope you and Dory are fine. While I don't agree with this "cancel culture" thing in most cases, I can empathize with those who felt wronged all throughout America's history, including the Native Americans who consider the Black Hills as sacred. Just try to imagine how they felt (and still feel) when White people carved those faces on their mountain (which) they considered as hallowed ground.
Plus, the image of those four White men looking down on them tells a lot. How much more insulting can you get? Having said that, I must admit that this issue is a very complicated one with no simple and quick remedy to it. So may the LORD help us! GOD bless America, now more than ever!
Hi Jerome,
First, thank you for reading and responding to my blog. I truly appreciate that. Now to address the issue you raised:
If it were the Native Americans of South Dakota who are demanding that the Mount Rushmore Memorial be destroyed - I could almost understand and in many ways relate to it. How can I, a white Caucasian American, relate to the feelings of our Native American friends? In 1838 and 1839, the Cherokee and other Native Americans of my home area of Alabama, under President Andrew Jackson's Indian Removal Policy, were forced to surrender their homes, farms, lands and were forced to march over 2,000 miles to an area in present-day Oklahoma.
The Cherokee people called this journey the "Trail of Tears," because of its devastating effect, thousand of lives lost due to the hardship of that forced march. Thousands of Native Americans died on that horrible Trail of Tears. These were civilized tribes working hard to fit into the American way of life, becoming productive neighbors and members of their local communities - not savage tribes. Yet American settlers wanted the land - and the Native Americans were removed by the United States Army to make room for the settlers.
But it is "NOT" the Native Americans who are demanding that statues and other historical landmarks be destroyed. It is the Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and other Far Left Millennials (who I personally believe just join the protests and riots for the fun of raising hell) doing the demanding, protesting, rioting, looting, and killing - and they do not even have enough common intelligence to pick the right objects of their destruction. They claim to be protesting the injustices done to blacks and are demanding reparations because of the black slave trade of the 1700 and 1800s.
Yet they have destroyed statues of Abe Lincoln, General Grant, and many others who fought to free the slaves. They attack and kill Law Enforcement Officers - the vast majority who daily put themselves in harm's way to Serve & Protect ALL Americans, regardless of race, color, economic status, and religion. No, it is not the Native Americans causing the nationwide destruction, but a darker evil.
Dory and I were talking about this recently - who is really behind and to blame for the protesting, rioting, looting, and killing happening in America today? And I am convinced that the real evil behind these protests and riots have much deeper roots than BLM and Antifa. It is my personal belief that the roots of this unrest goes all the way to the United Nations and to Communist China.
The United Nations because I am convinced that their main goal in life is to establish themselves as the One World Government. If you have a goal to conquer and destroy the sovereignty of all the nations of the world - where do you start?
The obvious answer is - you start with the strongest first, for once you have conquered the strongest - the weaker nations will fall in line and concede their sovereignty without any real fight. But if you start with the weaker nations first - you will have to fight and conquer each nation individually - which will result in a long drawn out process of wars. Kill the strongest first, and the weaker will capitulate - just as Italy did in World War 2.
Why China? Starting back with President George H. W. Bush - American businesses and jobs were literally pushed into moving off-shore - many of them to China. That process started by Bush, Sr. expanded rapidly under Clinton and Obama - until China literally owns a major portion of America today. When President Trump took office - he began to reverse that process - bringing companies and jobs back into America.
An example of China's plan of conquest: At one time China was quietly moving to own literally ALL of the Sea Ports in America. They made a big push to buy the Port of Los Angeles at San Pedro, one of the largest in America. President Trump stopped that and began to push back against China's claim on American property.
What is so important about not allowing China to own our Sea Ports? Imagine if you can, that you own your home - but I own the walkways and doors which give you access to your home. Only through my good will are you allowed to enter through MY doors into your home. At my discretion, I can make you a prisoner in your own home, controlling your life, since you will not be free to enter or leave without my permission. If China owned the American Sea Ports - they would control everything which is shipped into and out of America. In other words, they would control America.
You don't believe me? I challenge you to go to Walmart and find ten items not "Made In China" on their shelves. Actually Walmart should be renamed "Walmart China West."
Also, about 90% of all the pharmaceutical products in America, including YOUR medications or the medications of someone you love, are manufactured in China. To destroy America - China just needs to ban exports of pharmaceutical products to America - and then what would we do?
George H. W. Bush, and to a great degree, George W. Bush, and Bill Clinton and Obama worked hard to build the Communist China economy - at the expense of the American economy and the American workers. On the other hand, President Donald Trump has put a big hurt on the Communist Chinese economy in the past 3 1/2 years in office - and he will not slow down after he is reelected on November 3, 2020. Do you have any doubt that China is spending billions and billions of Dollars in their campaign to see Sleep Joe Biden win?
And we do have a precedent for that accusation. On April 12, 1945, Vice President Truman became president when President Roosevelt died in office. President Truman remained in the White House until January 1953 - when Dwight Eisenhower became president.
During his time in office, Truman made several major decisions: First to drop the bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Next, he was on the verge of stopping all American military aide to Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek's government on Formosa (Taiwan). Truman felt it was a waste of American tax dollars. But when the Communist North Koreans invaded South Korea and the Korean War began in 1950 - President Truman realized that we needed Formosa as a military base in the Far East to support our troops in Korea. So he held back on stopping military and financial aide to Formosa.
But during the period preceding the 1952 Presidential Election, with the possibility that the Korean War would soon end and President Truman would return to his original plan of defunding Formosa - or worse yet, another Democrat would be elected and replace Truman in the White House, continuing his anti-Generalissimo Chiang policy alive - Formosa would be in big trouble.
Just to refresh your memory, in the 1950s, my 58th Fighter-Bomber Wing based in Osan, Korea, and other U.S. military units, were stationed on Formosa for years, our TDY tours keeping the American presence in Formosa - as the Big Hammer keeping Communist China from attacking Formosa. Chiang Kai-shek knew that if a Democratic president was elected and America withdrew our troops - he was very vulnerable.
In the late 1940s/1950s, besides Military Aid, America was pouring millions of dollars, Financial Aid, into Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek's bank accounts. While I was doing research for the 1/Lt. Robert Ford Memorial web site I created about 15 years ago - I found documents which showed that Chiang Kai-shek had spent over $500 Million Dollars of that Financial Aid money - on New York City Public Relations firms - to help Dwight Eisenhower win the 1952 election. Collusion? You betcha! Eisenhower won and America continued our military presence on Formosa.
So, yes, there is a precedent to my claim that China will do ALL in its power to defeat President Trump - just as Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek did to defeat Adlai Stevenson and help Eisenhower win in 1952. And the United Nations is literally the Godfather of the Globalist Government Crowd. Both the UN and China are willing to pour unlimited funds into the BLM and Antifa protests, rioting, looting, and killing all across America - with one goal in mind: DEFEAT PRESIDENT TRUMP.
Once again I want to thank my Christian brother, Jerome, for his response which initiated this blog. I pray that all Americans will give serious thought to what I have written - and that if you have doubts, please do your own research. But most importantly, I pray that YOU love America enough to VOTED CONSERVATIVE IN 2020.
God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,
Bill
