In 1940, future President John F. Kennedy wrote "Why England Slept" as his senior honors thesis at Harvard. JFK's collegiate analysis of how and why England became weakened and disarmed, leaving her unprepared for the Nazi nightmare, was unusually insightful for a collegiate effort. Kennedy went on to win the Pulitzer Prize for his efforts, and the book became a bestseller. As always, JFK's father, then-Ambassador Joseph Kennedy, likely had his thumb on the scale, given the fact that he allegedly bought 250,000 copies and kept them in a warehouse that he owned. As for the Pulitzer Prize, JFK's close friend and confidant at the time was Henry Luce, publisher of Time Magazine, which had more than 5 million readers at the “time” rather than the 5 they do today.
Nonetheless, JFK was on to something big. England and the West during the interwar years had become so averse to war that the power vacuum of tyranny through Nazism, Japanese aggression, and related ideologies filled the vacuum as they always do.
As things stand today, the West is being lost… and by "the West," I mean the battle for Western Civilization.
Over the past 60 years, Left-wing indoctrination, Islamo-Nazism, and all factions of the "Destroy America and the West" philosophies, political movements, and elite academic hatred of Western values are all on the march, while America and the West are in retreat.
“Free Speech” has given way to "Free Reign", allowing America-hating, Western-hating movements that routinely disrupt, intimidate, and destroy free speech and freedom of expression and religion everywhere in the world. I'm not referring to the fabricated construct of "Islamophobia". Instead, I am highlighting that the Left, for the most part, hates all religions except for one, and that is Islam. The reason for this is that despite Islam's repressive nature, particularly concerning LGBTQXYZ rights, etc., the Left knows that Political Islam is now its most powerful ally in working towards the destruction of America and the West.
Leftist violence has seeped into every corner of the Western world, much like raw sewage escaping from a rotting sewer pipe. The American Pravda and Western Media have collectively ignored the destruction of Christianity in the Middle East by Islamo-Nazis. Islamo-Nazis and their more than willing useful idiots on "elite" college campuses ardently support the ubiquitous intimidation of Jewish students. Incidents such as public space desecrations, synagogue defacings, and violent attacks on Jews have become commonplace.
The unchecked violence and rampage of the Left, through their wholly-owned subsidiaries of BLM and Antifa, have inspired a new wave of the destroy America, Israel, and West crowd, i.e., the Islamo-Nazis and their ever-broadening solidarity with the "From the River to the Sea" Crowd. The West, with a weakened America, has allowed a group of Islamo-Nazi pirates to disrupt and destroy traffic on the Red Sea, resulting in commercial disruptions and the murder of Westerners.
America and the West have very little time to change course in reclaiming the primacy of Western Civilization. Without a radical change in American leadership, America and the West are headed for a cataclysm of epic proportions. It is not just a matter of removing the current occupant of the White House from power. America and, ultimately, the salvation of the West will require a complete rejection of Marxism, Wokeism, Jew-hatred, and a strong policy that makes clear to our enemies, both foreign and domestic, that we mean business—not in the form of business as usual.
If America fails to regain her footing as the real leader of the free world, there will be no free world, and that will be the story of "How the West Was Lost."
