Lol today we both wrote about the same theme, from different perspectives. Anniversaries are like that.

This is a well put together piece with many useful links. Thank you. The only thing I would add, if I may, is a revision of the start date of WW3. I can make an argument for it beginning almost immediately after WW2, but I think a really good starting point would be 9/11. After that *event* is when many of the covert surveillance projects were deployed through various client organizations. ( DARPA Life log= Facebook, as well as other Office of Information Awareness shenanigans) Of course the Patriot Act changed the battlespace as well, all of which set the stage for what was possible worldwide in 2020. The power elite have a weapon that us common folks do not have, the element of time. They can plan for generations whereas we can barley plan past our next paycheck. They get us complaining about slippery slopes when in reality upon looking back it has always been a designed slope into overt technocratic tyranny. This gradualism is a weapon mass society cannot fathom, this is why as "bad" as everything appears right now, as much as many believe that the elite's plan is coming apart, I think they are right where they planned on being. All of this reminds me of the wisdom of some of our founding fathers here in America (some of them were tools) , particularly in this instance, James Madison:

"I believe there are more instances of the abridgement of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power, than by violent and sudden usurpations; but, on a candid examination of history, we shall find that turbulence, violence, and the abuse of power, by the majority trampling on the rights of the minority, have produced factions, and commotions, which in republics, have, more frequently than any other cause , produced despotism."

Power has found a way to gradually create, control and divide these factions by social engineering (including controlled opposition which you have covered so well) leading them to all the results that are desired by the leviathan. Least of which is to have people conditioned as such to have them begging for their own chains for their own good. As it seems we have arrived. Meanwhile, people are still fearful that WW3 may begin soon from enemies "out there"...
