Why Europe Won’t Let Greece GoRichard Palmer | June 18
G . I I
ional Moneary Fund () €1.5 billion ($1.7 billion) by he
end o he monh. And ha’s he sar o a gaunle o loan repay-
mens—i owes $11 billion by he end o Sepember. Wih ime
running ou, European officials are reporedly preparing or a
caasrophe.
Wha exacly will happen? I don’ know. Bu I do know ha
in he long erm Greece is going o remain under he European
Union’s influence.
In lae 2008, Greece was in serious financial rouble. Greece
owed billions o banks and financial insrucions across he EU. I
hese banks didn’ ge heir money, some o hem would go bank-
rup oo, rigering a chain reacion ha would cause a global
financial crisis.
So Europe sepped in. Now mos Greek deb is owned by insi-
uions. I Greece didn’ pay back is debs now, i would no rig-
ger ha kind o global crisis.
Speculaion has risen ha his is wha EU officials planned
all along. The “bailou” in 2008 wasn’ designed o save Greece.
I was designed o save off he crisis long enough or he EU o
shore up is posiion.
No everyone agrees. Leting Greece qui he euro and go bus
sill has is economic risks. Bu here is a more significan reason
ha some—including German Chancellor Angela Merkel, i he
rumors are o be believed—oppose leaving Greece high and dry.
The geopoliical landscape has changed dramaically since
2008. Russia is now openly hosile o much o he Wes. Mean
while, he Middle Eas is in chaos, and ha is now Europe’s prob
lem. Ambrose Evans-Prichard wroe in he Telegraph: “Nobody
should underesimae he poliical hurricane ha will ollow i
Europe proves incapable o holding moneary union ogeher
and Greece spins ou o conrol. The pos-war order is already
under exisenial hrea rom a revanchis Russia. Sae auhoriy
has collapsed along an arc o slaugher hrough he Middle Eas
and Norh Arica, while an auhoriarian neo-Otoman Turkey is
slipping rom he Wesern camp. To lose Greece in hese circum
sances—and o lose i badly—would be an earhquake.”

alks wih Russia on uure miliary cooperaion, including a ac-
ory o make Kalashnikovs on Greek soil,” wroe Telegraph assis-
an edior Jeremy Warner. “These repors should perhaps be
aken wih a large pinch o sal as no more han ani-Greek pro-
paganda. Even so, he broader hrea o geopoliical realignmen
is no wihou oundaion.”
Greece, Serbia and a ew ohers in he region have deep his-
oric ies and culural ies o Russia. Hisorically, Russia has
backed and proeced hese counries agains he powers o cen-ral Europe
The Eurasia Group also repored ha his problem was on Ger-
man leaders’ minds: “[T]he prospec o insabiliy in he Balkans,
he Black Sea area and he Easern Medierranean has become
even more pressing. This, raher han financial conagion, seems
o be he real problem or Europe and is cerainly wha currenly
preoccupies Germany mos.”
Such a rapprochemen would devasae European securiy.
Afer having expanded righ up o Russia’s borders, he
Wes would suddenly ind ha Russia had leaprogged hem
and gained an ally in prime posiion o projec power in he
Medierranean. In he 1990s, Europe and ough a war o
ensure heir conrol over he Balkans. They’re no abou o losean even more imporan piece o real esae.
The Middle Eas is also a major concern here. As he Trumpet
has noed beore, Cyprus is a very sraegic base or Europe o
projec power o he Middle Eas. Cyprus is Greece’s litle broher.
Where Greece goes, Cyprus will ollow, as much because o eco-
nomic necessiy as culural ies.
I Greece leads Cyprus and Serbia ou o he EU’s orbi, a one
sroke Europe’s abiliy o projec power souh and eas is cu
off. Does his mean he EU will pull ou all he sops o preven
Greece rom leaving he euro? No necessarily. Bu i will affec
how Greece quis he euro—i i does qui in he end.
I Greece leaves he euro, he EU will make sure i remains in
he European orbi. Even Wolgang Schäuble—he bad cop in
he Greek drama, who reporedly wans Greece ou o he euro—
wans o give Greece a kind o European Marshall Plan aferward. Earlier his week, German European Commissioner Gün
her Oetinger said ha EU officials were preparing plans o help
Greece i i descends ino a sae o emergency. They have plans
he said, o ensure he power says on, hospials ge medical sup
plies, and he police ge paid.
This would also ensure Greece remains a European ally i i
leaves he euro. I couldn’ drif over o Russia i is police were
being paid by Brussels, or i German cash was keeping he power
on.
As he Trumpet has said rom he sar o his crisis, he euro
was designed o bring he EU ogeher. Is archiecs knew i
would provoke crises unil Europe is orced o creae a common
governmen o go wih he common currency. Some members ohe eurozone may no be par o ha common governmen. Bu
Europe is no going o le his ool designed o creae uniy push
some o is members over o Russia.

MIDDLE EAST
Iran’s Tightening Stranglehold of Afghanistan
Anthony Chibarirwe | June 16
O I
regional influence is o ideniy he highly unsable naions
o he Middle Eas—Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, Libya, Sudan—
and, as a recen repor verifies, Aghanisan.
On June 11, he Wall Street Journal repored on Iran’s suppor
or he Taliban. Tha’s no acually news: Tehran’s documened
backing o he Taliban goes as ar back as 2007, despie he prior
ension ha exised beween he Shiie Iranians and he Sunni
Taliban and Iran’s prior suppor o ’s atack on he Taliban
beginning in 2001.
Wha’s news is how ha suppor has recenly increased in
scope and volume, and how ha suppor has increased in spite
of he Unied Saes bending over backward or rapprochemen
wih Iran. The Journal’s repor said ha Aghan and Wesern
auhoriies have observed Iran increasing no only is supply o
weapons and ammuniion o he Taliban, bu also is raining and
recruimen o Taliban milians.
“Iran supplies us wih whaever we need,” said one Taliban
commander.
According o hose auhoriies, Tehran’s suppor or he Tali-
ban is par o a wo-pronged sraegy o couner he clou o boh
he U.S. and he Islamic Sae in boh Aghanisan and he Middle
Eas in general.
The drawdown o U.S. soldiers rom Aghanisan has made i a
lo easier or Iran o smugle arms o he Taliban.
Iran is also supporing he Taliban because he erroris
group’s saure in Aghanisan is growing. The Aghan govern
men in Kabul is engaged in peace alks wih he Taliban. I he
Taliban gains greaer influence in Aghanisan, so oo will Iran
As one Wesern diploma said, “Iran is beting on he reemer
gence o he Taliban.”
Arming, unding, raining and recruiing he Taliban, in addi
ion o undermining he U.S., diminishes he influence o he
Islamic Sae in Aghanisan and oher places like Syria.
Bu by supporing he Taliban, Iran does no only come ino
conflic wih he murderous Islamic Sae or he naive Unied
Saes, i also comes ino direc conflic wih oher orces
fighing he Taliban in Aghanisan—chiefly Germany—he
hird-larges roop conribuor o Aghanisan afer he U.S
and Briain.

49 Percent of Israelis: Obama Purposely Harming U.S.-Israel Ties

ha almos one hal o he Israeli public agrees wih M.K.
Michael Oren, he ormer Israeli ambassador in he U.S., who
said his week ha U.S. Presiden Barack Obama has “deliber-aely” caused a deerioraion in U.S.-Israel ies. …
In an op-ed or he Wall Street Journal on Monday, Oren said
ha while Israel may have made “misakes” vis-a-vis he U.S.,
Obama’s misseps agains Israel were carried ou on purpose.
“From he momen he enered office, Mr. Obama promoed
an agenda o championing he Palesinian cause and achieving
a nuclear accord wih Iran,” wroe Oren. Obama abandoned he
wo core principles o Israel’s alliance wih America, he accused.
One core principle was he concep o avoiding public dis-
agreemens wih Israel so as no o encourage heir common
enemies o exploi he disharmony, said Oren. Anoher was “no
surprises.” While Israeli leaders in he pas were given orewarn
ing abou major U.S. policy saemens regarding he Middle Eas
Obama did no warn Israel beore he “changed 40 years o U.S
policy by endorsing he 1967 lines wih land swaps—ormerly hePalesinian posiion—as he basis or peace-making.”
Similarly unpleasan surprises occurred, Oren added, when
Obama offered o suppor a UN Securiy Council invesigaion o
Israel’s communiies in Judea and Samaria, and “o back Egyp
ian and Turkish effors o orce Israel o reveal is al leged nuclear
capabiliies.” …
“[In Zechariah 11:14,] God says ha He will “break he broher-
hood beween Judah and Israel,” he modern-day naions of
Israel and he Unied Saes (and Briain), r especively.”

Obama Admin Excluded Iran From Threat Assessment
Washington Free Beacon | June 17
L U.S.
disclosed effors by he Obama adminisraion o play down he
errorism hrea posed by Iran in an official repor issued his year.
Direcor o Naional Inelligence James Clapper admited in
a recen leter o op senaors ha he adminisraion wrongly
excluded reerences o he global errorism hrea posed by Iran
and is error affiliae Hezbollah in he 2015 World Threa Assess-
men o he U.S. Inelligence Communiy.
“A specific reerence o he erroris hrea rom Iran and Hez-bollah—which was no included in any o he drafs o he esi-
mony [offered beore lawmakers]—would have been appropriae
or he 2015 Assessmen, bu he lack o is inclusion is in no way
a change in he [inelligence communiy’s] assessmen,” Clapper
wroe in a June 3 leter o op senaors.
Clapper’s leter came in response o an earlier leter rom
a delegaion o senaors who were seeking o discover why he
Obama adminisraion excluded reerences o Iran’s global er
roris operaions. …
Some criics accuse he Obama adminisraion o downplay
ing he erroris hrea posed by Iran and is proxies in order
o appease he Islamic Republic and preserve he ongoing alks
aimed a inking a wide-ranging nuclear deal. …
[One o he members o ha Senae delegaion, Sen. Dan Coas
(Ind.), said,] “I welcome Direcor Clapper’s recogniion o ha
error, bu I remain concerned abou he adminisraion’s prioriies.” …
Sen. Mark Kirk (R., Ill.), one o he leading criics o he admin
israion’s diplomacy wih Iran, said ha U.S. concessions o Iran
a he negoiaing able would only embolden is rogue behavior. …

Pope Calls for New World GovernmentRichard Palmer | June 22
N
anicipaed. The leaking o a draf o Pope Francis’s laes
encyclical—an official addiion o Caholic docrine—has led
o quie he buildup o speculaion in he media. The ac ha
i deals wih global warming means ha i has been discussedacross many differen ypes o media ha rarely pay close aten-
ion o papal pronouncemens. Briain’s lef-wing Guardian news-
paper even published whole secions o i.
This suis he pope’s purpose or he documen perecly. In
his inroducion he makes clear ha, unlike his las encyclical,
he’s no jus wriing o members o he Caholic Church. Insead,
“I would like o ener ino dialogue wih all people,” he wries. The
Guardian called i “he mos asonishing and perhaps he mos
ambiious papal documen o he pas 100 years.”
I’s a bold aim or a bold documen. Following on rom he
pope’s early criicism o capialism in his encyclical Evangelii
Gaudium (The Joy of the Gospel) i is a suble bid or much greaer
Caholic conrol over he global economy, global poliics and evenhe whole globe in general.
This new encyclical, called Laudato Si ( Be Praised), is he
pope’s plea o humaniy on behal o “our siser, Moher Earh.”
A good chunk o i does deal wih global warming. Bu here’s
also much on he many oher ways man is desroying his plane—
hrough hings like polluion, shorages o resh waer and he
general “sel-desrucive” behavior o mankind—warnings ha
would no be ou o place on our websie.
This warning especially could almos have come rom a Trum-
pet aricle:
“I is oreseeable ha, once cerain resources have been
depleed, he scene will be se or new wars, albei under he
guise o noble claims. War always does grave harm o he envi-ronmen and o he culural riches o peoples, risks which are
magnified when one considers nuclear arms and biological
weapons.”
The pope also warns ha “people no longer seem o believe in
a happy uure; hey no longer have blind rus in a beter omor-
row based on he presen sae o he world and our echnical
abiliies”—adding ha i has become clear he science does no
have all he answers. He addresses “he crisis o amily and social
ies”—calling amily he “basic cell o sociey.”
Bu i is when Francis ges o he soluion o hese problems
ha his leter is mos dramaic. Once again, Francis places he
blame or boh he coming environmenal crisis ha he oresees,
as well as world povery, on he shoulders o “he curren global
sysem, where prioriy ends o be given o speculaion and he
pursui o financial gain.” There is some ruh o his—man’s cur-
ren sysem is ar rom perec—hough i ignores he ac ha
communism has had more han is air share o environmenal
disasers and does much less o help he poor.
And he soluion? As soon as Francis sars addressing his
subjec in Chaper 5 o his leter, he calls or a radical new power
o be given conrol in he world.
This is he hear, core and radical message o his docu-
men—no he global warming debae ha has aken up so many
newspaper columns. Frances wries ha we mus hink o “one
world wih a common plan.”
Here he builds on he previous pope’s, Benedic ’s, radi
cal call or a “world pol iical auhoriy” in one o his encyclicals
Benedic’s saemen is dramaic and worh quoing in ull—asFrancis does: “To manage he global economy; o revive econo
mies hi by he crisis; o avoid any deerioraion o he presen
crisis and he greaer imbalances ha would resul; o bring
abou inegral and imely disarmamen, ood securiy and
peace; o guaranee he proecion o he environmen and o
regulae migraion: or all his, here is urgen need o a rue
world poliical auhoriy, as my predecessor Blessed John
indicaed some years ago.”
This is he genius o Francis. He has exacly he same message
as Benedic, bu akes i o a much large audience. Benedic never
had his encyclicals prined in he Guardian or endorsed by lef
wing journaliss.
Bu Francis’s call goes beyond uopian dream. I’s much morespecific han some kind o airy-airy new world order. He also
uses language ha is very pracical. He says “enorceable iner
naional agreemens are urgenly needed” and alks abou “global
regulaory norms.”
“The 21s cenury, while mainaining sysems o gover
nance inheried rom he pas, is winessing a weakening o
he power o naion saes, chiely because he economic and
inancial secors, being ransnaional, ends o prevail over
he poliical,” he wries. “Given his siuaion, i is essenial o
devise sronger and more eicienly organized inernaional
insiuions, wih uncionaries who are appoined airly by
agreemen among naional governmens, and empowered o
impose sancions.”Las year Francis published wha was reerred o as his call
or “he overhaul o he financial sysem”—condemning “une
ered capialism” and saying ha he world’s economic sysem
had ailed he poor. A he ime we wroe, “Pope Francis has ye o
presen a deailed, over acion plan or he global economy.” Lau
dato Si is closer o being ha acion plan. Where do you sar in
overhauling he world’s financial sysem? The pope’s answer is o
empower inernaional insiuions wih eeh and new inerna
ional regulaion. Perhaps his gives us an idea o wha he pope
will speak abou when he addresses he UN in Sepember. During
he same rip, he will also be he firs pope o address a join ses
sion o Congress.
The global economy has sill no recovered rom he economic
crisis o 2008. The siuaion in Greece could plunge Europe
ino more han jus a financial crisis a any momen. There are
a whole number o problems ha could push he world ino he
abyss. And a his crucial decision poin, he pope is publishing
his way orward.
Wach or he Caholic Church o push or a key role in esab
lishing hese inernaional insiuions. For more on he ype o
global sysem he Caholic Church endorses, read our 2014 ari
cle “Much More Than an Economic Plan.”

Napoleon’s Shadow Still Falls on Europe
Eric Maurice, EU Observer | June 18
H , ,
he minds o he housands o people gahering on a small
pach o Belgian counryside his week.
A he batle o Waerloo, exacly 200 years ago on June 18, 1815,
Napoleon Bonapare los his army, his empire, and even his ree-
dom when he was sen o he iny Souh Alanic island o Sain
Helena.
Ye i is he, no Briain’s Duke o Wellingon and Prussia’s
Prince von Blücher, he winners o Waerloo, whose image will
be everywhere when he batle is commemoraed and reenaced.
Two cenuries on, he French emperor remains a owering fig-
ure in Europe’s hisory, and one o he mos conroversial.
Napoleon is sill able o sir seemingly irraional reacions.
When Belgium mined a €2 coin in March o commemorae
Waerloo, France filed an official complain. Belgium rereaed,
emporarily. Bu hen i produced a limied-ediion €2.50 coin
insead. …
Dictator or Hero?
Napoleon’s las batle was ollowed by several decades o sabiliy
on he European coninen, a leas unil he 1870 Franco-Prussian
war or even unil World War .
Ye, conrary o commemoraions o World War and World War
, in which deeaed Germany and Ialy now regularly ake par in
Waerloo and he Napoleonic era are sill divisive evens. …
“Whereas Germany, or insance, buil is naional soryell
ing on he idea ha he German people was also liberaed rom
Nazism in 1945, France’s relaionship wih Napoleon is more
ambiguous,” said van Middelaar, who was also speechwrier or
ormer EU Council Presiden Herman van Rompuy.
As a consequence, “one canno imagine Cameron and French
Presiden François Hollande holding hands on he Waerloo ba
lefield” like Germany’s Helmu Kohl and France’s François Mi
errand did in Verdun in 1984.
The hisorical jury on Napoleon himsel is sill ou.
For some, his 16-year reign is “he birh o modern dicaor-
ship,” as Germany’s Der Spiegel wroe in 2013.
For ohers, he is he “absolue hero,” as France’s L’Express pu
i las year.

“Napoleon has become he propery o all Europeans. He con-
cerns all o hem or beter and or worse,” French hisorian Thi-
erry Lenz old his websie.
“In 200 years rom now, he will be like Charlemagne. We will
no know anymore i he was only French or he sovereign o he
European empire he ruled,” said Lenz, who is direcor o he Par-
is-based Fondaion Napoleon.
In his case, hisory would come ull circle, because, as van
Middelaar noed, Napoleon considered himsel as a successor oCharlemagne and no o Louis , he French sun king.
Napoleon appears o be he hisorical produc o Europe’s dra-
maic hisory, wih boh is dark and brigh srands alongside one
anoher.
His imperial designs brough war rom Porugal o Russia, bu
also poliical and adminisraive progress which laid he ounda-
ions or modern Europe.
“Napoleon is no a model, o course. Bu he arrives a a ime
when Europe is made hrough war,” said Lenz.
In he conquered lands, he emperor imposed he rule o law
insead o eudal rules and expored French conceps o equal
iy and social righs, as well as a pyramidal organizaion o power
said he French hisorian.
“The adminisraive organizaion o European cenralized
saes seems naural oday, bu i is because everybody copied he
Napoleonic model.” …
“Afer cenuries of German and Ausrian dominance, he Holy
Roman Empire revived again for a brief inerval of French
dominance. I was he Roman Empire in disguise. Napoleon se
ou o carry on he ideals of Charlemagne, only in a more mod-
ern world. Like he German emperors before him, Napoleon
envisioned himself ruling he world—and once again hrough
he Vaican.”

files solen by he ugiive U.S. whisleblower Edward
Snowden, orcing MI6 o pull agens ou o live operaions in hos-
ile counries, according o senior officials in Downing Sree, he
Home Office and he securiy services.
Wesern inelligence agencies say hey have been orced ino he
rescue operaions afer Moscow gained access o more han 1 mil-
lion classified files held by he ormer American securiy conrac-or, who fled o seek proecion rom Vladimir Puin, he Russian
presiden, afer mouning one o he larges leaks in U.S. hisory.
Senior governmen sources confirmed ha China had also
cracked he encryped documens, which conain deails o
secre inelligence echniques and inormaion ha could allow
Briish and American spies o be idenified.
One senior Home Office official accused Snowden o having
“blood on his hands,” alhough Downing Sree said here was “no
evidence o anyone being harmed.”
Sir David Omand, he ormer direcor o , said he news
ha Russia and China had access o Snowden’s maerial was a
“huge sraegic seback” ha was “harming” o Briain, America
and heir allies.Snowden, a ormer conracor a he and Naional Secu-
riy Agency (), downloaded 1.7 million secre documens rom
Wesern inelligence agencies in 2013 and released deails o sen-
siive surveillance programs o he media. …
Two weeks afer his iniial leak in June 2013, Snowden fled
Hong Kong or Moscow where he claimed poliical asylum. He
has remained under he proecion o Puin’s regime since. …
And las nigh David Cameron’s aides confirmed he maerial
was now in he hands o spy chies in Moscow and Beijing.
A senior Downing Sree source said: “I is he case ha Rus
sians and Chinese have inormaion. I has mean agens have had
o be moved and ha knowledge o how we operae has sopped
us geting vial inormaion. …”
The confirmaion is he firs evidence ha Snowden’s disclosures have exaced a human oll. “Why do you hink Snowden
ended up in Russia?” said a senior Home Office source. “Puin
didn’ give him asylum or nohing. His documens were
encryped bu hey weren’ compleely secure and we have now
seen our agens and asses being argeed.”
A Briish inelligence source said: “We know Russia and China
have access o Snowden’s maerial and will be going hrough i
or years o come, searching or clues o ideniy poenial arges
“Snowden has done incalculable damage. In some cases he
agencies have been orced o inervene and lif heir agens rom
operaions o preven hem rom being idenified and killed.”
Omand said he leaked inormaion would enable China
and Russia o plug any o heir inelligence capabiliy gaps andwarned ha could spark “a global inelligence arms race.” …
A U.S. inelligence source said he damage done by Snowden
was “ar greaer han wha has been admited.”
I is no clear wheher Russia and China sole Snowden’s daa
or wheher he volunarily handed over his secre documens in
order o remain a libery in Hong Kong and Moscow.

Adultery Websi tes Should Be as Unac ceptable as Ra ce-H ate Websites

ple who are ineresed in sraying, in cheaing on heir
spouses. Or, as he websie pus i, people who are “looking or
a litle romance ouside heir curren relaionship.” The sie now
has a million Briish users.
I you are old-ashioned and simplisic enough o disapprove
o his, as undermining o marriage, hen one o he company’srecen press releases can help you owards a more sophisicaed
view. Having polled 200 o is salwar adulerers, who have been
using he sie or 11 years, i ound ha wo hirds said ha heir
exramarial advenures had srenghened heir marriages. The
websie also claims ha by helping people o sray “discreely,” i
makes an affair less likely o be rumbled. In oher words, i saves
you rom seeking risky hrills wih he leaky-mouhed village
ar, leading o he collapse o your marriage, i i can be called a
marriage. One user says: “I need o ge my kicks rom somewhere,
having a secre affair is wha exhilaraes me he mos—i’s a high
you can’ experience anywhere else in lie.”
Illiciencouners.com porrays adulery as sexy and nau-
ral—and i’s no alone in his. Suddenly here’s a swarm o sies
adverising “married daing” services: affairsclub.com, nosring-
satached.com, vicoriamilan.com, ashleymaddison.com (slo-
gan: “Lie is shor. Have an affair.”). There’s even a married daing
wachdog, which adops a very lofy one o voice and claims o
sor he “decen” adulery sies rom he rip-offs. There are films
abou adulery, a hi series (The Affair) and endless magazine
eaures all oying wih he idea ha married couples can have
heir wedding cake and ea i.
And can hey? Is his all jus harmless hanky-panky, anoher
sep owards liberaion? I don’ hink so. I hink we should
consider ha all hese websies are seriously morally wrong, jus
as wrong as an organizaion ha promoed racism.
Tha migh sound excessive. Bu is i really? I we hink ha
marriage is a morally good hing, hen why shouldn’ we deend i
as srongly as we deend he principle o equaliy? …
On sexual moraliy, we seem o have wo principles. One: Any
sor o sex beween consening aduls is fine, i is one’s righ, orsex is he pures realm o individual sel-expression. Two: Mar
riage is good. Is sabiliy enables people o flourish, and is prov
ably he bes srucure wihin which o raise children. I is an
immense conribuor o “he common good.” …
In pracice, his radiion ges subly sidelined by he easier
appeals o individual righs. … So he problem is no ha we have
sopped believing in he moral good o marriage. The problem is
ha we are losing he habi o expressing his belie. Tha’s a dan
gerous loss. Our inariculacy will allow he belie o weaken, o
all ino disrepair. This is already happening. Today’s liberal-lef
ies marry apologeically, as i hey are slighly leting he side
down. They are embarrassed o be oping in o a radiion ha
Tories see as morally imporan. …
Bu you can’ remove moraliy rom marriage, or make i a
merely personal mater. … And marriage’s power o spread social
virue is rooed in he rus ha is esablished beween a sexu
ally aihul couple. To say ha an affair can srenghen a mar
riage is like saying ha a pacifis movemen can be srenghened
by some bombing. …
Affirming he moraliy o marriage is awkward. Square hough
i sounds, i means quesioning wheher we should be so oleran
o he enerainmen indusry’s hedonisic view o sex. I’s easy
enough o criicize crass realiy shows and porn; i’s rickier o

admi ha qualiy dramas such as Mad Men are par o he prob-
lem (as indeed are mos novels abou adulery, however highly
eseemed as ar). Bu i here is serious moral worh in marriage,
hen here is serious moral worh in fideliy, and we mus say
so, however uncool we sound. We mus challenge he narraive
o sex as pure sel-expression, and affirm he narraive o sex as
somehing whose ordering, in marriage, brings order.
“Since i is a basic ruism ha a solid family srucure is he
foundaional bulwark of any sable and permanen sociey,
his fac means only one hing—civilizaion as we know i is
on he way down—and ou—unless ha grea ‘unseen srong
hand from someplace’ soon inervenes and saves oday’s sick
sociey.”

U.S. Financial Outlook Has ‘Worsened Dramatically’Bob Adelmann, The New American | June 17

Oulook,” he Congressional Budge Office saed blunly: “The
long-erm oulook or he ederal budge has worsened drama-
ically over he pas several years, in he wake o he 2007-2009
recession and slow recovery …. I curren law remained generally
unchanged in he uure … growing budge deficis … would push
[he naional] deb above is curren high level.”
I’s all abou governmen spending ha’s baked ino he cake:
The Baby Boomers reiring and asking he governmen o make
good on is Social Securiy and Medicare promises and he rising
coss o healhcare along wih “an increasing number o recipi-ens o exchange subsidies and Medicaid benefis atribuable o
he Affordable Care Ac [which will] push up spending … i cur-
ren laws … remain unchanged,” said he repor.
The creaed wo avenues or poliicians concerned abou
he mater o pursue: one, o keep he deficis rom going any
higher, and he oher o bring hem back down o hisoric levels.
For he firs, axes would have o increase by $1,450 per person
per year, saring immediaely, or Social Securiy benefis would
have o be cu by $2,400 per person per year, saring immedi-
aely.
The second scenario is even worse.
The repor considers he consequences o doing nohing: A
some poin invesors in governmen bonds would become con
cerned abou geting heir money back and would demand higher
ineres raes o compensae or ha risk. This would accelerae
he deficis o new levels. As he repor noed, “The larger he gov
ernmen’s deb, he greaer he risk o a fiscal crisis.”
The need o und hose promises would drain capial ha
would oherwise be invesed in business opporuniies in he
hopes o generaing wealh, urher slowing he economy. …
Using he ’s numbers and applying hem o a lower middle
class amily illusraes he poin. A amily making, say, $40,000a year, wih debs o $180,000 (home morgage, car paymens
credi cards, ec.) is going o have difficuly making minimum pay
mens, o say nohing o paying down hose debs. Bu i he real
debs are $2 million, here’s no way. Tha’s he real conversaion
ha he is avoiding wih is long-winded bu largely irrelevan
discussions o various scenarios o bring down he naional deb.
In his 1926 novel, The Sun Also Rises, Ernes Hemingway had
wo o his principal characers, Bill and Mike, engage in he ol
lowing conversaion:
Bill: How did you go bankrup?
Mike: Two ways: gradually, and hen suddenly.
