Pay attention closely to reputable sources of news... South Korea, Israel, France, the United States... these are among the richest, supposedly stable democracies on the planet and all are in varying states of chaos and disfunction. Russia, Turkey, Iran, North Korea... all are the antagonists looking to spread fascism and totalitarian rule.

The truth is about to be a precious commodity.
