Comment: This is the best interview I had a chance to see in a long time, maybe ever. It does not focus on tactics or logistics, or science and technology. It focuses on culture, on moral values and philosophical justification of what we do collectively as a nation. We went wrong sometime in the 1990s. We substituted “what is useful and beneficial” for “what is right, fair, and just”. Such distinction cannot be made without a “higher power” implementing its value system on humanity. This is where religions began to play an important role in our history but they were quickly utilized to manipulate public opinion and achieve more practical goals. So were ideologies. In our times, it is increasingly difficult to uphold social cohesion based on any moral standards. Social status, migrations, and politics have always been used to divide people and pitch us against each other. “Divide and conquer” is still the name of the game, today. What we need to realize is that such divisions destroy us as a society and, consequently, as a country. We are being exploited and enslaved because we are divided and powerless.
