[Sundaycommunity] Good morning

[Arthur Blomme]

Hi Bill

In my last post I also included an article that featured a quote from 
Chretien's Memoir, Would ‘our’ military fight to defend 
Canadian sovereignty?

Yves goes on to disarm Trump's bombastic rhetoric by pointing out how 
intricately enmeshed   Canada's military is with the US military.  Trump 
doesn't need to use military force to make Canada do what it wants 
because it already owns our military. The political elites in our 
country walk hand in hand with the political elites of the states.   The 
elites of both countries have no qualms about supporting genocide and war.

I am sure the Holy Spirit does not condone war. The first victim of war 
is the Truth.  We are in a perpetual war.
