Every day I read chilling statistical reports on the escalating violent crime in America––murder, rape, robbery, assault. The staggering increase is horrifying, but what is most alarming to me is the percentage of young people who accept criminality as a societal solution. The Hill posted a stunning article online December 17, 2024, titled, “Shock poll: 41 percent of young voters find killing of UnitedHealthcare CEO acceptable” written by Filip Timotija. Why is this so?
The alarming decline of morality that is convulsing America today is the consequence of the globalist elite, and its relentless replacement ideology that seeks to reorder the world into one singular, planetary Unistate. The separation of Church and State that our Founding Fathers institutionalized as protection against a state religion has been exploited and perverted to allow the insertion of Marxist principles, indoctrination, and ideology to be practiced as a state religion inside America.
Primary schools, high schools, colleges, and universities across the nation have embraced American Marxism and its amoral foundation which advances its ends justify the means for the greater good principle. There is no individualism or individual morality in Marxism, only rules to follow that advance the collective. It is precisely this amoral Marxist narrative that has separated young Americans from the morality and protection of the Judeo-Christian tradition. Indoctrinated young Americans have not understood the formulaic consequences of the ends justify the means principle that can and will be used against them, the moment their usefulness expires.
Marxism is a collectivist replacement ideology that has been funded, fomented, and weaponized by the globalist elite to shatter the Judeo-Christian morality and the individualism it protects. The amoral tenets of the woke Marxist narrative, including Diversity Equity Inclusion (DEI) and Environmental Social Governance (ESG) that affect education, medicine, law, investment, and corporate governance, are designed to collapse the Judeo-Christian morality and infrastructure of the United States––and they have been wildly successful. The evidence is reflected in the stupefying statistic reported in The Hill article, “A poll found 41% of adults under 30 consider the killing of Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson acceptable.” Additionally, “Since Thompson was shot, first in the back and then again as he fell to the ground, a number of social media posts from people saying they do not have sympathy for his death have gained popularity.”
Consider how communist Chairman Mao’s Cultural Revolution and Great Leap Forward used death and destruction to create a new China, the People’s Republic of China. It is estimated that 45 million Chinese people died for the greater good in Mao’s Cultural Revolution, including his Red Guard of armed student activists. Why? Because there was no place for agitators in Mao’s new China. Likewise, there will be no place for agitators in the globalist Unistate. Mao is quoted as saying, “It is better to let half of the people die, so that the other half can eat their fill.” This is the direct consequence of Mao’s ends justify the means principle. American Marxist students whose amoral attitudes accept killing the CEO of UnitedHealthcare for the greater good of society, had better realize that they will also be eliminated in the name of the greater good of society sooner or later.
There is no individual freedom in totalitarian rule whether it is religious totalitarianism, secular totalitarianism, monarchical totalitarianism etc. etc. Totalitarianism is a very descriptive word. It always and only describes the few with absolute power over the many.
Every society large or small is organized by a code of conduct. Our Founding Fathers were determined to avoid the tyranny of centralized government, specifically monarchy, and they established a nation of citizens, not subjects. The Constitution of the United States, drafted in 1787 by delegates from 12 states (Rhode Island did not send delegates) and ratified in 1788, was written to form a more perfect union that was described by Abraham Lincoln 100 years later as a government of the people, by the people, and for the people.
The Bill of Rights, the first ten amendments to the Constitution, was ratified in 1791 guaranteeing individual civil rights and liberties to citizens, and limiting the government’s power over them. Those rights include freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, and the right to bear arms. Limitations on government include, for example, protection against unreasonable searches and seizures. The first sentence of the Preamble to the Bill of Rights makes its intention explicitly clear:
THE Conventions of a number of the States, having at the time of their adopting the Constitution, expressed a desire, in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers, that further declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added: And as extending the ground of public confidence in the Government, will best ensure the beneficent ends of its institution.
The foundational morality of the U.S. Constitution is the Judeo-Christian 10 Commandments. The delegates, our Founding Fathers, were Christian men who carefully drafted the 1st Amendment to both ensure freedom of religion in the United States, and prohibit the establishment of a “State” religion. Religious power and political power were merged in every society from ancient times until the United States Constitution separated them.
Historically, religious power provided the morality and political power provided the infrastructure for organizing societies and running governments. In homogenous societies the merger was not a problem, but what about today’s multi-religious and multicultural societies? What happens when the morality of religions and beliefs clash? The Judeo-Christian tradition that is the infrastructure of morality in the Western world is diametrically opposed to Islamic doctrine and to paganism. But the Judeo-Christian tradition itself is not homogenous, and has multiple internal fractures inside Judaism, inside Christianity, and between Judaism and Christianity. So, let’s examine the 10 Commandments and the possibilities for a more perfect union in a multicultural, 21st-century United States of America.
If we look carefully at Commandments 5-10, we will discover all of the required moral principles for living in a free society of ordered liberty, without specifying Yahweh, Jesus, or any other godhead of the religions in the world. It is specifically the incorporation of the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights, applied in the framework of Commandments 5-10 that can Make America Moral Again and unify our nation. We cannot abide internal divisiveness over the identity of God in Commandments 1-4, nor can we abide any religious or secular doctrine that rejects Commandments 5-10. For me, how a citizen of the United States comes to embrace Commandments 5-10 is irrelevant, as long as that citizen abides by them, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights.
The 10 Commandments
1. Thou shalt have no other Gods before me
2. Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image
3. Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain
4. Remember the Sabbath to keep it holy
5. Honor thy father and thy mother
6. Thou shalt not kill
7. Thou shalt not commit adultery
8. Thou shalt not steal
9. Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor
10. Thou shalt not covet
Globalism in the 21st-century is by far the most dangerous of the totalitarian options because its planetary objectives are achievable through globalist elite control of the astonishing advances in science, technology, and communications. The United States of America under the leadership of President Donald J. Trump and the patriots in his administration, are the bulwark against globalism and its dystopian feudal Unistate.
President Trump’s massive 2024 election victory has established a newly invigorated and expanded Republican party. Make America Great Again (MAGA) Republicans include the participation of many disillusioned and patriotic former Democrats who want American morality restored in America. Men like Elon Musk and Robert F. Kennedy Jr., understand that their freedoms, business interests, and ideological hopes for a healthier, safer, prosperous, sovereign America are only possible in the patriotic MAGA Republican movement. These former Democrats understand what American socialists and today’s Marxist Democrats have failed to recognize: They will all lose their freedom in the totalitarian globalist Unistate because it is amoral, and operates on its ends justifies the means principle that uses any means to justify its own megalomaniacal ends for the greater good. Globalism is entirely hostile to the individual, individual sovereignty, and to national sovereignty. Our future as a constitutional republic is in the Make America Great Again movement because of its commitment to MAMA: Make America Moral Again!

This is a Peloniism. It is an evasion, answers nothing.
“In any event, we do continue to offer commentary on the Ukraine debacle, but it has a great deal of competition of late due to the ever evolving dynamics in the US and the Middle East. Our latest post was yesterday in fact,
https://www.israpundit.org/russian-offensive-steamrolled-ukrainian-forces-on-kupyansk-front/
But you can use the search function on the left column to review the content we have shared on this topic.”
Your political approach is very dangerous for the Jewish people.
Before I wrote I counted the posts on israpundit as 15 and nothing on Ukraine War. Later this post you refer to is a military type guy, it seems to be non political. I think he is a bore. For sure he does EVADE the politics of the situation.
Yet the issue is that NATO and America threatens nuclear war on our earth.
And then you quote from a crypto site and is the defence of the only Jewish state left to that.
In fact Scott Horton has written an invaluable book. He starts with much detail on the role of NATO in the literal destruction of Yugoslavia.
He sources everything.
But the disease of Peloniism is going to keep all of everything like that from the consciousness of the Jewish people.
That is crazy.
@fquigley
Proof is not generally necessary for something that is self-evident. But, in any case, it’s my opinion and proof is not a requisite. You can accept it or not.
@fquigley
I am familiar with Horton, from Antiwar.com as I recall, and for whom I have a strong recollection for his specifically anti-Israel invectives over the years. In any event, I have not read his commentary on Ukraine, but I find him to be a poor historian despite his wealth of familiarity with the facts surrounding the topic of Israel on which he has offered extensively inaccurate commentaries over the years, see the following just as an example:

Yesterday I challenged the editors. A nuclear war threatens. And yet they don’t answer.
Actually a new book is being discussed widely. How about this new book.
It is called “Provoked” and in its 800 plus pages gives a very serious analysis of the neocon experience in our lifetime
Written by a man called Scott Horton
Mao rejected Marxism only using the label to repress
Raphael…you have not showed the following claim not giving even a single quote
“Marxism, which is being taught in our schools (and everywhere else), is a religion. Make no mistake about that.”
You omit proof of this claim
The founders of Marxism, founded of course by Karl Marx and carried on in particular by Lenin and Trotsky, is explicitly opposed to religious thinking because their view of earth promotes materialism.
Explicitly Dialectical Materialism, and means that thought is a reflection in the brain of the material world. It is trying to explain..The reality of consciousness.
Materialism predated Marx actually.
Religion is related to the belief in a SUPERNATURAL being or presence. Religion removes us humans away from understanding the real world. We can only get to understand the real world through science.
Marxism opposes religion but I would suggest should not ever persecute but certainly persuade.
It’s not a religion at all.
So why be a banner. Discussion is better.
I think it is better the following
“Discuss the difference between the theory of Marx and the theory of religion. ”
But most teachers I have met could not understand the philosophy underpinning both.
But discussion can take place outside. In fact more freely which is the thinking of “separation of church and state” as they say.
The separation is a very good thing and should be maintained.
In conclusion Raphael if you make such claims then you need to put in quotes something these Marxists said which is religious. And this applies to all things.
Marxism, which is being taught in our schools (and everywhere else), is a religion. Make no mistake about that. If we are going to have “separation of church and state”, then let’s HAVE separation of church and state, otherwise let’s stop being hypocritical about it and put the teaching of Judeo-Christian principles back in schools, as well. Ideally, though, Marxism should be booted out because it is destructive of society.
Where’s the coverage of Ukraine War on israpundit site at this moment in time? Is there a policy of censorship going full on? Explain Peloni please
Reader
It was just an expression of me to be very careful of the military language of people like Bibi but I was loyal to the plight of Israel. The whole site here except for you was acting differently. Very gung ho.
But I hope to keep it in mind going forward.
It comes from Trotsky’s out and out fight against Lenin invading Poland to join the German workers in situation there.
Trotsky very thoughtful and proved correct.
Note… discussion not public but internal
Time about 1922.
Personality a Pilsudski
When I locate the URL I’ll send it
@fquigley
Unfortunately, I don’t, I wish I’d saved your comment.
I agree with what you are saying but could you be more specific to remind me what it was we were talking about?
The Nomenklatura victim of its OWN brainwashing.
The “CEO” is the Nomenklatura!
“5 to 10” is about common-sense self-preservation principles.
Don’t do to others ….
Reader do you recall I said to you on October 7 DO NOT FIGHT ON THE GROUND PREPARED FOR THE FIGHT BY THE ENEMY
Netanyahu and the PT B did exactly that
Do you remember me saying that?
Cultural Marxism is all a con job dreamed up to lie about Marx et Al. No connection. Jews need to shake off types like Goudsmit…no truth at all with her on anything
I do not believe one word from Goudsmit.
It is false and Jacques Baud alone proves the separatists got no assistance from Putin. How did he know we’ll he was there working for the UN
It’s all about lying.
A system of lies top to bottom
Thanks, Peloni.
@fquigley
Felix,
As I pointed out somewhere on this website, Christianity having originated/lived during the times of The Great Revolt (Jews against Rome) when being a Jew was pretty much the equivalent of a death sentence, ended up defining itself as NOT-Judaism and defining Christians as NOT-Jews.
However, the new NOT-Jews decided to derive their legitimacy by claiming that ALL of the Jewish Scripture prophesied the arrival of Jesus as Messiah, but the Jews misunderstood the whole thing, killed their prophets, sinned, etc., etc. which caused them to reject and even kill Jesus for which they will be punished.
From now on Christians are New Israel (but they are NOT Jews), most of the Jewish teaching cannot be accepted by Christians, and Jews are supposed to suffer until they see the light, so to speak.
The problem is, when you define yourself as NOT someone, you can start going crazy watching 24/7 and making sure you are really NOT becoming that someone.
It is very confusing (I think).
But one’s problem is going to become much more difficult when on the one hand, one is desperately trying to be NOT-Someone, and to abhor this Someone’s Teaching while, on the other hand, one claims that his Holy Teaching derives from Someone’s Teaching’s prophecies misunderstood by Someone who one is desperately trying NOT TO BE or NOT TO BECOME.
I think it is similar to how Ukraine defined itself in the early 2000s as NOT-Russia.
Edgar
What percentage of the Christian narrative is false?
Is all of it twisted to attack Judaism? I would say 100 per cent.
Please clear this up if you can.
Just give your overall assessment
On a linked issue why is the joining together of Christian and Jews here in this present being done to attack Marxism. And how are Jews reacting to this. Reacting much, a little or not at all. I think they are aware of it because it is so in our faces.
If that’s the case then Judaism today may have become cowardly. Lost something
But this relates to the present and how much and welll do these tell the truth in analysis about 7 October and about the wars starting with the present Ukrainian war.
My own position is based on the Marx analysis of our human society being based on capitalism, aka the capitalist SYSTEM, which is …It has become a system and this description is very detailed in simple easily understood explanation language by Marx and Engels because it leads into the idea of needing to do something about this SYSTEM.
To be worried about the system of capitalism today is also to try to understand why Victoria Nuland was taped in secret discussing who should form a new replacement government in a foreign country far away… What’s going on on our real world?
I reject the idea that this isn’t related to my original question.
Mike-
Judaism and Christianity are NOT very closely connected/ Christianity lags far behind Judaism in Torah Interpretation, although A1 in twisting and misinterpreting.
Have you ever wondered how “St.” Simon Stylites had his waste products removed from around his pillar…?? Of course guano was useful for the crops…Holy Crops…(a version of “Holy Crap”)
I recall reading that in the 19th cent, an isolated, good sized Island was completely covered with guano hundreds of feet deep, and that ships were loading up for many years until it ran short and was was commercially unprofitable . Can’t think of it’s name……. Somewhere near Sth Africa I think.
But there being no City Councils then the build up must have been massive during the over 30 years (I think) he sat on the pillars…….
Jews don’t interpret it, they KNOW what it says and means-except for
a number of obscure phrases, the meanings of which were lost even before Nebuchadrezzar disrupted and destroyed the whole country
FrankAdam-
I can think of situations where the end justifies the means, not thev Jesuit ends of course. What about a huge bomb timed to go off in a crowded area and the one who set it won’t tell????? There are dozens more ……!!
“St. Paul”….???? Do you mean that “all things to all men” holy
Liar-in-Chief??? The Phony “Roman Citizen” who never was. I guarantee it.
Look up “Roman Citizen Qualification around 1 CE…. You’ll get a surprise. Herod was one, but not until nearly 40 years of unflagging help to Rome, including rescuing Julius Caesar from Certain death with soldiers, food, and much more, when starving and trapped in Alexandria.
There was never a lowly tent maker (very low on the social scale) living 1500 foot-slogging mles from Rome who was ever a Roman Citizen. He sure was a liar, and the Jailor who believed him was far worse than that great brain, Barney Fife.
@Michael
Done
Peloni, I posted a comment here, but it did not get posted. Could you please look into the matter?
Hi, Linda
You and the others here have touched on a lot of subjects — way more thanI can deal with in my limited brain.The central issue seems to be the headline:
This headline seems to refer to that “Luigi” fellow (“psychopath”, if I dare say so) who gunned down that insurance CEO; and the fact that this murderer seems to have gathered a cult following.
I think Frrankadam and Reader are correct, that this is not the result of the teachings of Marx and Mohammed; nor, frankly, does it have to do with Saint Paul, Latin mores, or Charles Dickens. Reader is correct, also, that the wickedness we see here is more because of lust for power than ideology.
Concerning Luigi himself, we know that he thinks like a psychopath, and seems to have scrambled his brains by dabbling in psychedelic drugs. He didn’t create his cult following, and I don’t think he is even mentally capable enough to have incited his followers.
The cultists have certainly taken leave of common sense; and they seem to have a lot of fellowship in today’s crazy world. Reader seems pretty ignorant of Christianity. Christians, for the most part, certainly are taught the 10 commandments — which, I hope he realizes, originate in the Jewish Torah. Judaism and Christianity are very closely connected.
Years ago, I used to listen to a Bible-based radio show by Dr. J. Vernon McGee. He went through the entire Bible in five years, in a way that was pretty easy to understand. He would say,
“The ‘New Morality’ is nothing more than the ‘Old Immorality'”. I think that’s what we’re dealing with here. Lots of people, over the years, have been abandoning God and His commandments, and giving themselves over to their lusts. The communists didn’t make them do this, nor the globalists, nor St. Paul or anyone else. They’ve simply been living in sin, big time, and need to repent.
This has NOTHING to do with Marxism (unless it is used as a swear word).
One does not have to follow a certain ideology to be immoral, one just has to be overly ambitious and power hungry.
The end (making money and grabbing more and more power) always justifies the means for most under capitalism, BTW, capitalism is a Marxian term, maybe we should stop using it?
The situation is starting to look more and more like Germany 1914-1939 with murders in the streets, assassinations, etc. with the police and the courts looking the other way, and the public approving the violence, so, actually, it is starting to look more and more like fascism or Nazism.
Christianity has nothing to do with Judeo- other than the concept of spiting the Jews.
End justifies the means was held against the Jesuits since their appearance. You can not blame everything wrong on “Marxism” when St Paul has bent and twisted Europe’s private lives for twenty centuries and Mohammed and folowers have been positively promotiing war agaiinst all kaffirs ipso facto for 15 centuries.
Morality – Latin mores – includes all customs and rules about living together and that means far more than worshipping the Golden Calf Mon to Friday – a particularly corrosive turn of mind well worshipped in the USA since its foundation. There are many who would do well to re-read Dickens “Hard Times” and then re-read some of the psychology we have found these hundred years that emotional security matters which involves knowing when to lay off the hard nose.
