Socialism is gaining popularity in the United States, from Bernie Sanders hawking free everything and demanding higher taxes to university curricula disparaging capitalism. In this week’s boralogue, John looks deeper at socialism and asks: why, after failing every time it has been implemented, would anyone ever consider it a viable option? Socialist regimes bemoan capitalism at every turn but ultimately seek it out when all the money runs dry. America needs to stand up now and shout down this failed system!

Chinese communist leaders are continuing a campaign of religious persecution across their country. Bob Fu (www.chinaaid.org), Founder and President of China Aid Association, examines the government’s motivations and shows that even legally sanctioned Christian churches are experiencing forced confessions, jail time, and even death.

Non-Muslims in Pakistan are persecuted as well through their dangerous blasphemy laws. Author and blogger Shamila Ghyas (www.twitter.com/ShamilaGhyas) gives examples of the laws’ power and goes on to explain that most Muslims are non-violent and need stand up to the extremists.

A 7.8 magnitude earthquake hit Ecuador on April 16th, killing hundreds and injuring thousands. Wayne Stauble, a real estate developer in the country, describes the devastating aftermath of the quake and the need for preparedness in a time of crisis. Our prayers go out to those in Ecuador.

Finally, what exactly happened to Malaysian Airlines flight 370 in March 2014? H. Richard Austin (www.thecomingofarmageddon.com), financial analyst and author of The Coming of Armageddon, analyzes factual evidence of what happened to the flight and proposes that the plane was hijacked for future use in a terrorist event.

John’s quote of the week:
“The problem with socialism is that sooner or later you run out of somebody else’s money. Socialism has never survived by itself and has always had to turn to capitalism to bail itself out.”

160016 04/16/2016 False Flag

What is the true definition of fascism? In this week’s boralogue, John looks at different events in the West today and shows that fascism is rearing its ugly head again. It’s not, as many will have you believe, the attitude of anyone disagreeing with politically correct views. Fascism is agreeing that utilitarian state views should trump the religious principles of its people. We’ve been here before and it didn’t end well.

What would you do if you uncovered corruption and terrorism at your job? Sibel Edmonds (www.boilingfrogspost.com), Founder and President of the National Security Whistleblower’s Association, describes her dismissal from the FBI and subsequent harassment after uncovering security breaches and cover-ups at higher levels. She discusses false flag terror events, the military industrial complex, and an operation code-named Gladio.

Those with autism or Asperger’s syndrome are often misunderstood. We welcome Janet Lintala (www.loveautismhealth.com), Founder of Autism Health!, who shares her journey as a parent and her work with non-prescriptive solutions to help those on the spectrum.

John’s quote of the week:
“The real issue most concerning is the one that most people don’t want to address – the idea that a utilitarian will of an all-powerful state trumps the religious and moral consciences of the people of that state. This is truly dangerous territory.”

Nothing for Something

160015 04/09/2016 Nothing for Something

A mountain of documents known as the Panama Papers have been leaked exposing shell companies, offshore accounts, and tax havens of hundreds of influential people around the world. In this week’s extended boralogue, John links these papers with next week’s tax deadline here in the U.S., explaining patterns found throughout history in taxation and the economy, showing the bumpy road America and those in the West are traveling down.

The FBI’s battle with Apple ended when the Feds cracked the cell phone of one of the San Bernardino terrorists. Columnist and political analyst Liz Peek (www.lizpeek.com) examines Apple’s decision to ignore the government and stand for customers’ privacy as well as the legalities of the FBI’s initial request to break into the phone.

Puerto Rico, an American territory, is teetering on the brink of insolvency. Charles Tatelbaum (www.trippscott.com), a bankruptcy attorney at Tripp Scott Law Firm in Florida, discusses whether the island government will be eligible to file for bankruptcy, and how residents there and on the mainland are being affected.

Donald Trump is all over the news, leading the 2016 GOP race for the president. Rejoining the program this week is Pat Wood (www.technocracy.news), Founder of the August Corporation, who looks at Trump’s technocratic nature and what is to come for America, regardless of who sits in the Oval Office next year. Technocracy is opposed to capitalism and free enterprise, but many on the campaign trail support it. Be careful what you wish for in needing someone to fix Washington – you may not get what you’re expecting.

John’s quote of the week:
“There is a complexity in the United States tax code, which no one can really know or understand, except for a few arcane people and those skilled in the dark arts!”

Running in the Wrong Direction

160014 04/02/2016 Running in the Wrong Direction

Politicians will applaud a law when it benefits their narrative, but will speak out against the same law if it’s used against them. In this week’s boralogue, John shows how the culture wars have spawned this dichotomy and how new rights are declared constitutional and begin crowding out well-established freedoms actually found in the Constitution. It shifts the culture and sooner or later we find we are running in the wrong direction.

Documents have revealed that the U.S. government covered up Iran’s involvement in the September 2012 attack in Benghazi. Ken Timmerman (www.kentimmerman.com), President of the Foundation for Democracy in Iran discusses Iran’s participation in the raid, cover-up at the highest ranks, and the true motivations behind Islamic jihad.

President Obama’s legacies both in the Middle East and at home have largely failed. Shoshana Bryen (www.jewishpolicycenter.org), Senior Director of the Jewish Policy Center joins us to examine the call once again for an Israel-Palestine peace process and the foreign policy strategies of not only the current president, but also the candidates vying to be the next.

We have established that we are running in the wrong direction in every way, but what can we do to change the course? Clare Lopez (www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org), Vice President at the Center for Security Policy offers her solutions, including a coherent and strong national security policy, staying out of the Sunni-Shia fight, and knowing who you’re up against and having the courage to say it.

Finally, John plays a clip of financial expert Jim Rickards, who explains the inner workings of the Fed balance sheet and disproves the notion that the Fed is actually in trouble when it comes to insolvency.

John’s quote of the week:
“If you don’t believe in a fixed morality and a fixed Constitution and values which really mean something, then anything can be anything when it needs to be or ignored when it needs to be.”

Forgettism

Member Login to Listen/Download MP3 of Entire Broadcast

160013 03/26/2016 Forgettism

Loss of identity and purpose can be alarming. John shows us just how alarming in this week’s boralogue as he connects the tragic bombings in Belgium, President Obama’s trip to Cuba, and the competing worldviews in the 2016 U.S. election cycle. There is a purposeful forgetting about where we came from and who we are, and it is causing more forceful worldviews to surface. We must remember.

The primary worldview surfacing to replace freedom and liberty is Marxism. Philip Carl Salzman (www.mcgill.ca), Anthropology Professor at McGill University in Quebec, discusses the century-long infiltration of Marxism in academia and correctly defines two problematic outcomes of it: multiculturalism and social justice.

In an extended boralogue, John exposes the truth behind everyone’s T-shirt hero, Che Guevara and Cuba’s communist history, and shows how socialism needs capitalism to rescue it from its own failures.

Finally, we welcome Michael Curtis (www.polisci.rutgers.edu), Professor Emeritus at Rutgers University, who examines the geopolitics of Russia, the Middle East peace process, and the need for America’s foreign policy to improve.

John’s quote of the week:
“The problem we are having in the West is we are listening to several different narratives of who we are, where we come from, and those values upon which we stand. One of those narratives is a solid one: the original one that stood, created Western civilization, and has lasted for 1500 years, and it still works for anyone who tries it.”

We wish everyone a safe and happy Easter.

We are taking a break from Section 6 this holiday weekend, but it will return next week with analysis by John on important stories highlighting emerging geopolitical trends around the world.

Willful Blindness

160012 03/19/2016 Willful Blindness

There are blips on the world stage radar that are projecting what we’ll see in the months and years to come. In this week’s boralogue, John takes a look at what these blips are telling us and shows that there is a willful blindness concerning global ideologies. There is a chasm of truth between the realities of the world and both politicians’ promises and politically correct narratives. Those who understand the realities will be better positioned when the coming storms hit.

Why did Libya suddenly appear on the world stage a few years ago as a threat to world security? Ellen Brown (www.ellenbrown.com), Founder of the Public Banking Institute, reveals that the upheaval in Libya related to gold and silver, rebel-based central banks, and details from Hilary Clinton’s emails.

The Christ at the Checkpoint Conference concluded this week in Bethlehem in the West Bank. Dexter Van Zile (www.camera.org), Christian Media Analyst for the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting, attended the conference and discusses its anti-Zionist narrative that blames Israel for all wrongs in the current conflict with Palestine.

John Kerry and the State Department declared this week that Christian persecution by ISIS in the Middle East is officially deemed genocide. Juliana Taimoorazy (www.iraqichristianrelief.org), President of the Iraqi Christian Relief Council, examines the situation and asks: why did it take so long for this declaration to come about?

How did the U.S. get to the point of self-loathing and history revision that casts itself in such a negative light? Former Idaho State legislator Curtis Bowers (www.agendadocumentary.com) joins us to reveal Marxism for what it truly is and discuss the willful blindness of those that fall victim to its false narrative. We need to hear and understand the truth or the enemy will win.

John’s quote of the week:
“Gramscian Marxism paraded through our culture starting in the 1930s, masquerading often as progressivism – sometimes it’s called socialism – and all of those “isms” are pretty much the same thing. We keep changing the names to protect the guilty. It fails every time you turn around.”

American Sleepwalk

160011 03/12/2016 American Sleepwalk

News stories are often negative in nature in order to interest viewers. In this week’s boralogue, John takes a look at the last 25 years, full of angst and worry concerning a myriad of situations, and a sense now that negativity is on the rise. Things come and go; often things we thought were important at the time. But God does not change. Trust in Him to guide you through the angst.

It has been reported that Homeland Security officials have removed nearly 1,000 names of suspected terrorists from the U.S. terror watch list. Chris Farrell (www.judicialwatch.org), Director of Investigations and Research at Judicial Watch, reveals why these names were scrubbed and how the redefinition of words and thought played a part.

The definition of psychological illness is quickly changing as mental health screenings could become mandatory at your next doctor’s office visit. Correspondent for The New American Alex Newman (www.thenewamerican.com) weighs in on this, exploring how Obamacare is paving the way, and the dangers of subjective diagnoses.

Do you know the difference between the Dark Ages and the Middle Ages? Scholar Tim LeCroy (www.christourkingcolumbia.org), Pastor of Christ Our King Presbyterian Church in Columbia, Missouri, explains the difference and shows how virtually all systems in the West has its basis in Christianity.

Finally, we welcome Nick Adams (www.nickadamsinamerica.com), President of the Foundation for Liberty and American Greatness, who analyzes the perils of political correctness and suggests how we can fight it and say we’re not going to take it anymore!

John’s quote of the week:
“If we look at politically correct ideology, it’s an assault on success; it enforces mediocrity; it suppresses the robust debate we need in a free society; and in many cases literally it’s killing us.”
