HAPPY JULY 4TH 2024 MONTGOMERY OHIO USA |
THE BALKANIZATION OF THE USA & THE END OF E PLURIBUS UNUM Have we forgotten the meaning of E Pluribus Unum? The phrase means "Out of many, one” It is the motto chosen by the thirteen colonies who came together, with such hope, and trepidation on July 4, 1776, to constitute a new Nation, the United States of America. Two centuries and a half later, in 2021, former President George W. Bush wrote a book entitled: Out of Many, One: Portraits of America's Immigrants, a book to be read in every high school. Today, the dream of E Pluribus Unum is in great danger of turning into the nightmare of the balkanization of America. Wikipedia defines "balkanization” as the “process involving the fragmentation a country into multiple smaller and hostile units” and “it is usually caused by differences in ethnicity, culture, religion, and some other factors such as past grievances”. The word is based on the name of the Balkan region in southeastern Europe that was broken into several small nations in the early twentieth century resulting in the slaughter of humanity and destruction of old regimes during World War I [see FOOTNOTE 1 UPDATE below] followed by a Second World War. Are Americans in 2024 getting ready to turn their backs on E Pluribus Unum? As a body politic, we all carry our share of this terrible march towards balkanization of the USA. In my opinion, the political Left with it inexorable drive to correct inequalities based on race, color, religion, sex, and national contributes to balkanization. Nevertheless, it is a historical fact that there are no one from Africa or Asia nor any Natives of America among the signers of the Declaration of Independence – indeed they were all White Men, immigrants from Europe, some being owners of enslaved people. On the other hand, and in my opinion, the political Right is reacting towards the status quo ante bellum 1861, a time when the Union was bloodily fractured into two. Today, both the Left and the Right claim the political truth. As the rest of the world is stunned by the political forces seeking the balkanization of the USA, great dictators such as Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping, and lesser tyrants such as Kim Jung Un and the Ayatollah Khamenei are busy talking and rubbing their hands in anticipation of the demise of the USA, the fall of bastion of the democracy in the World. Ironically, it was the Soviet Union that experienced balkanization in 1991, a fait accompli that Putin is desperately trying to reverse by invading Ukraine, once a founding member of the USSR. Is America in such a desperate and foreclosed position as to require the balkanization of E Pluribus Unum? Certainly Not! With the balkanization of the Soviets, the U S has emerged from a long Cold War as the greatest of the world democracies. Indeed, I suggest the American Century began not in 1945 but with the fall of the Berlin Wall after former President Ronald Reagan told Mr. Mikhail Gorbachev to tear down that wall. But today, the USA is in danger of being diminished by self-inflicted balkanization from our own historical amnesia, false self-doubt, and magnified by the urge for self- serving political power. Both the Left and the Right seem prepared to risk balkanization to feed their selfish political hunger. Yes, our Declaration of Independence has short-comings, and the Constitution is not a perfect document but one that is created to accommodate changes that the future will bring. In the final analysis, E Pluribus Unum is the one solid foundation on which our democracy was conceived and upon which an enduring Nation was founded. It must not be balkanized by either the political Left or political Right. Instead, E Pluribus Unum as an ideal, must be preserved because these United States of America was born and must continue as the beacon for democracy for the world. Charleston C K Wang.

WHO WROTE THIS? Exerpts from Chapter 10 Premature Conclusions It is completely unrealistic to predict who will be the next president of [my country.] Clearly he will be a different kind of person born after World War II, most likely with a different upbringing and life story. The leaders who ran the show ... are leaving the scene one after another. We must admit that [my country] comprehends democracy poorly - not merely for global historical reasons but for rather prosaic ones: the new generation simply cannot break its way into power. The Socialist mode of thinking has left its imprint on all of us. I am speaking of myself. I am an obvious example. I am painfully ridding myself of my party complexes. But the entire mid-level bureaucratic class in [my country] came out of the party and government offices. [My country's] intelligentsia, the middle class, shuns power and avoids politics or any active social stance. They have more than enough willingness to sacrifice, and readiness for spiritual exploits and creativity but I don't see a willingness to work. People come into politics from the intelligentsia with an exaggerated degree of vanity and sometimes an inflated opinions of themselves. [My country's] political life still awaits new leaders, decent young people with a head on their shoulders, with good education and common sense. The new generation must come to the forefront as quickly as possible. The leaders of the era of stagnation knew how to "keep good form," which is important. However, their thinking is completely inflexible, their decision making too slow. We will not get very far that way. Sooner or later, I will leave political life. I will exit according to the rules, the Constitution, and the laws. I would definitely like to make that contribution to the history of [my country,] to set the precedent of a normal, civilized, orderly departure from politics. Leaders have never voluntarily parted with power in [my country.] ... At the end of the millennium, however, even this fundamental trait in us will change. Not all at once. [My country's] strength is in its cities, its provinces, and its culture. ... The chief goal of this restless president is [my country's] tranquility. WHO WROTE THIS? (Hint in 1994- try naming "My Country" first) TO SEE THE ANSWER click here. |
