The Army, Wars and Repressive apparatus
“Putting everyone over the age of 55 in line would immediately put an end to all wars.” With this quote by the American science fiction writer Harry Harrison, I would like to start this section. But if it were that simple, you may say, then all wars on Earth would have long ended, and people would live in peace and harmony, in one big and beautiful “tent.” However, if we take a look at the millennia-long history of humanity, it has always been accompanied by endless wars, conflicts, and various internal strife.
– But times change, and wars themselves also change and transform. From sticks, spears, and swords used by ancient warriors, humanity has moved on to the use of nuclear, chemical, and psychotropic weapons. Today, military conflicts involve not only guns and missiles that physically destroy people but also various technologies and techniques of information warfare.
– And in the wars of the last 3-4 years, a new type of weapon has already been actively used – drones of various sizes, modifications, and target applications. Such powerful military conflicts as the war between Russia and Ukraine, as well as the wars in the Middle East, have already clearly demonstrated the effectiveness, mobility, and lethality of this type of weaponry.
Terrorism
– Whether we like it or not, the nuclear potential possessed by only a few countries in the world is of crucial importance today. Why did I mention nuclear weapons? Because it is obvious to any sensible person, even one who is far from politics, that in our time this factor is decisive in many respects, both politically (as a deterrent) and militarily. This is especially relevant today, in the context of a new and very serious threat. This threat is called terrorism: a new social-political “tornado” (one could even say “innovation”) of the 21st century, sweeping away everything in its path. Essentially, it is a challenge and a test of global significance, as never before have people faced such a global and unpredictable problem.
In the past, humanity has experienced various disasters: ecological catastrophes, technological accidents, and devastating wars and conflicts that sometimes lasted for centuries. It even survived the explosions of nuclear bombs (not so long ago, in the 1940s). But terrorism itself is a phenomenon of a completely different order.
Being a relatively young method of warfare, international terrorism (international because it knows no borders, nationalities, and can erupt anywhere, at any time) has already gained such momentum that no one and nothing seems to stop it.
– The beginning of the 21st century marked a new milestone and turning point in the “era of terrorism.” The catalyst or chain reaction that led to the spread of radical Islamic terrorism across the world were the infamous events of September 11, 2001, in the United States. Islamic “kamikazes” attacked the twin towers of the World Trade Center in New York and also targeted the Pentagon. Out of the four hijacked planes, three reached their targets, while the fourth crashed a little short of its intended destination, somewhere in the fields of Pennsylvania.
The “Nine Eleven” terrorist attack became the largest tragedy in the modern history of the United States, claiming the lives of over 3,000 people. It was on that “black Tuesday,” September 11, 2001, that terrorism made its loud and worldwide declaration. It seemed to say to the civilized community: “You may continue extracting your oil, building ships, worshiping your gods, strengthening the dollar, and fortifying the positions of your decayed and worthless capitalist society. But at any moment, we can come – a new force that you have to reckon with. And we will show you how vulnerable all that you pride yourselves on and consider eternal and unshakable truly is. After this, your entire world will change and will never be the same as before”.
At that time, “Al-Qaeda” (a terrorist organization that orchestrated and carried out the deadly attack on the World Trade Center towers) became a new symbol of global “evil,” shifting the paradigm and balance of power in the world for many years, if not decades, to come. Thus, a conditional line was drawn, a dividing point between the old, more peaceful world before September 11 and another reality – a new, belligerent “world of chaos and terror” after September 11, 2001. Shortly thereafter, around 2004 or 2005, the Islamic State (ISIS) took up the baton of global terrorism.
– So what is terrorism, war, and generally, what is the purpose and benefit of all this? What are these processes, what do they serve, and what can all these things lead to in the future?
1. Terrorism is a “vaccination” aimed at preparing humanity for even greater potential horrors and destructive events in the future. But what could be worse than a natural force that destroys and devours everything in its path? Perhaps a direct hit on Earth by a massive asteroid or comet. However, that is a factor beyond human control.
2. Terrorism is an utterly uncontrollable, massive chaos without a goal, created by the Matrix with one sole purpose: to erase all of humanity along with its false religions, beliefs, state borders, weaknesses, strengths, and so on. Afterward, perhaps the creation of a new race somewhat resembling humans yet fundamentally different. In other words, it is global preparation for the End of the World or for a Matrix reboot, with subsequent updates to all its “engines” and systems.
3. Terrorism serves as a unique lesson or “master class” from the Matrix to humanity, saying, “Look at how beautiful the world you all inhabit is. The System provides you with everything: oxygen, beautiful lands and seas, individuals of the opposite sex similar to yourselves (for creating a family, reproduction, and accompanying pleasures), and other ‘civilization’s blessings.’ But you don’t appreciate it. Well, in that case, get ready to taste a new ‘dish’ called ‘Islamic terrorism,’ which will vividly demonstrate the charm of our ‘new world order’ to you. And you will regret for a long time that you didn’t accept the rules of our game earlier, when they still existed and the planet was relatively peaceful. So, blame only yourselves”.
4. Terrorism is the predictable outcome of the natural, centuries-long development of one of the most popular world religions – Islam. According to A. Nevzorov, the inevitable culmination of any religion is its entry into the “orbit” of terrorism. While such a statement seems quite natural when applied to Islam, it appears debatable and even comical when it comes to generally peaceful Christian religion, and especially Buddhism, which I respect. On the other hand, any religion can also be distorted beyond recognition, using it as a cover for terrorism and justifying atrocities in its name.
5. The Matrix clearly has a sick imagination, or rather, its creator, who has probably long ago completely “lost it.” Undoubtedly, the System has always killed people, using them for its dirty purposes, but it has never done it so quickly, cruelly, and in such perverse forms as today’s “Islamic” terrorism suggests. Therefore, it can be assumed (and quite reasonably) that the entire control vertical of the System – from the lowest agents to the highest level, the architect and creator of this “diabolical machine” – simply derives pleasure from causing a lot of pain and suffering to millions of people worldwide.
6. Now, let’s consider another, perhaps the most incredible (but only at first glance) version of the origin of international terrorism. Recently, a rather paradoxical thought came to my mind: a possible connection between radical Islam and the Matrix. You may wonder what connection exists here. Allow me to explain. As you all know, the first Matrix film was released in 1999. The terrorist attacks on the Twin Towers in New York occurred two years later. I am leading to the idea that, at first glance, these two seemingly unrelated events could be cause and effect, logically stemming from one another.
What if we assume that terrorism is a defensive reaction of the Matrix to the release of the film, and more importantly, to the effect that the sequel to “The Matrix” can (undoubtedly already has) cause among humans? Perhaps this sounds a bit wild and somewhat illogical, but why not, really? Consider this: over almost twenty years since its release, tens, if not hundreds of millions of people around the globe have watched “The Matrix”.
But how many of them have truly contemplated what is shown in the film and how genuinely important and fundamental its main idea is for all humanity? I believe a sufficient number to slowly but surely start moving things forward. And it’s enough for the System to begin acting in response, feeling how audaciously and unapologetically its cover has been pulled back, exposing an extremely unattractive flesh riddled with ulcers and festering sores. It is evident that this rather strange and paradoxical version of the activation of global terrorism in the early 21st century also has the right to exist.
However, this is just a small part of the other, larger game, which is extremely difficult for an ordinary individual to comprehend at the moment. We can only, through trial and error, as well as through individual insights and discoveries, see certain fragments and puzzle pieces, analyze different facts and events, attempting to weave them into a “carpet of truth.” But the overall picture is not yet accessible to us – it will only be revealed to us when we are ready for it. As we “awaken” and move away from conventional patterns. And for now, we are only at the “foot of the mountain” of the Matrix kingdom – although, already fully equipped and ready to conquer our first summit.
– It is safe to say that wars are a moment of glory for the state and its “navigators.” With the help of wars, the System, among other things, works out various psychological states of ordinary people before the conflict, during the war itself, and after the end of active hostilities. Prisoners of war are also a very important aspect of any armed conflict. And wars, as we know, are impossible without prisoners on one side or the other. Therefore, captured soldiers are an easy “target” for manipulation. Very often, the latter are bargaining chips for politicians, military leaders, and other “puppet masters” involved in the process. After all, rescuing “hostages” from captivity is important not only to return them safe and sound to their homeland and their families, but above all because they know too much, being potential traitors and defectors.
– It is really difficult to resist the System, with all its devilish tricks and cunning tactics. One person cannot change anything, several people are better, but still not quite what is needed. But when there are thousands, tens of thousands… hundreds of thousands, then it will be a real force and a “red alert” for the System: then people who have realized the true state of affairs and the reality in which they have been locked up since birth, like aggressive cells, will begin to attack the foreign organism inside which they find themselves. The “organism” of which they were never really a part and, at the same time, without suspecting it, were the fundamental building blocks, day after day fueling the life of the Matrix.
When the threshold of critical mass of “new people” is crossed, they, like the bacteria from Herbert Wells’ War of the Worlds (which, I remind you, became an insurmountable obstacle for the seemingly omnipotent Martians), they will overthrow the System from within, like a deadly disease, striking all its vital organs and completely cutting off its oxygen supply.
Conclusion of the Chapter “Army & Wars”
1) To sum up what has been said in this section, I would like to note several interesting points. The first idea is that wars are the result of powerful people (politicians, “players,” big businessmen and oligarchs, “Freemasons,” various experimenters and manipulators who have gained access to the distribution of resources, etc.) for their own mercantile interests and goals. This conclusion logically follows from all the previous paragraphs of this chapter.
2) The second important idea is that wars, paradoxical as it may seem, are necessary for the development of humanity. Periodic “resets” in the form of total destruction and deadly conflicts are only beneficial, because afterwards many things are renewed, a global reassessment of values takes place, and people take, to one degree or another, a step forward in their development.
