  In my book, The Tyranny of Good Intentions published 23 years ago, I pointed out that “law and order conservatives” enabled government to set aside protective aspects of law in order to easier and more certainly convict the Mafia, drug users, child abusers–whoever the target was at the specific time. Western World Is Now a Tyranny: I said that the law …

   “We are now speeding down the road of wasteful spending and debt, and unless we can escape we will be smashed in inflation.”—Herbert Hoover. We’re not living the American dream. We’re living a financial nightmare. The U.S. government—and that includes the current administration—is spending money it doesn’t have on programs it can’t afford, and “we the taxpayers” are the …

  The West has, in recent years, bestowed upon itself an immense weight of suffering from financial crisis, lack of ethics, health and a variety of political crisis. Traditional values, respect for the elderly, tradition, the family and faith has been scrapped from the public narrative. Front and center is the atheist materialist world view that deems the physical dimension …

  The great rulers in history knew perfectly well how to control the mob. Empires often ruthlessly pushed for conquest of the weak and revenues from the conquered, yet he who holds the moral high ground tends to win in the long run. So states the Chinese man of wisdom, the military genius Sun Tzu, writes historian Hanne Nabintu Herland …

  In the increasingly hedonist West, individuals are encouraged to act according to their feelings. If it “feels good,” do it as the pursuit of pleasure is the main goal of life.

It is all spurred by a singular, focused crisis narrative that …

  Hanne Herland counters those presenting empiricism as a ‘complete atheist religion’ in her weekly WND column.  Atheist Science: Today many view “modern social science” and “empiricism” – the practice of basing theories on testing of data derived from human experiences – as if these are infallible, objective entities. People believe in the social sciences as though they were a …

  Herland Report: John Locke Liberalism: At this point in history, the West is leaving behind its belief in classical, traditional values and the nation state, merging private corporate power with state funds in a liberal approach to accomplish the fourth industrial revolution. So we are told. But is the attempt to forge a new world order where the billionaires …

  The Social Credit System: Duff Cooper, Viscount Norwich, was the only British minister who resigned over the Munich Agreement of 1938.  His autobiography was titled Old Men Forget. I expect they do, but I remember. I remember when business, even large business, operated on handshakes without contracts.  Business could operate this way because people in those days had good character and …

  No matter who runs for office, no matter who controls the White House, Senate or the House of Representatives now or in the future, “we the people” have already lost. We have lost because the future of this nation is being forged beyond the reach of our laws, elections and borders by techno-authoritarian powers with no regard for individuality, …
