The Blood of Scots

Have a listen:

Neil Oliver on the Importance of Freedom to Prosperity at the 2021 Legatum Prosperity Index

Noble words from a fine Scotsman — and true enough.

Still, where are the William Wallaces of the world, as portrayed in the 1995 film Braveheart? Here’s the scene where Wallace discovers the two-faced Robert the Bruce.

The William Wallaces, if indeed, they rise up (against all the odds), are generally "blunted" along the way by the same old tricks. And if those tricks don't work they inevitably get sold-out by those who treasure comfort, safety and security above all else, viz., their freedom, their souls and the partaking of universal Spirit be damned. (Is it too much to ask for a little peace or have a life? to raise a family? Well, for sure, the Brits' Tavistock Institute and its proxies destroyed that natural urge for the baby boomer generation, just as they did, relatively-speaking, for that of William Wallace — and their covert "damnable dabbling control" of North America persists.)

It's true that "happiness is a by-product of living a moral life," as our Scottish speaker quotes at the outset of his short lecture. And yet it is that sifting through what "moral" means and how it is determined that matters. Unfortunately for many, that sifting search takes a whole life.

May I recommend any finely made single malt Scotch for those "difficult times" when the usual strategies of life come up short? And for those "especially difficult moments," the Scotch I put my money on is Macallan. Unfortunately the 18-year old and older are now way too much for us knowledgeable and truly discriminating lads who know their Scottish whiskeys.

Stay mildly entertained, too, in these days of humor-loss. Here's a noted masterpiece from 1972 when the turning of the screw began getting ever tighter => The Ruling Class

Yes, Peter O’Toole was an old hand at his craft. He reminisces here about the making of Lawrence of Arabia (more to file in the galvanized pressure cooker).   

There’s a deeper, “techo-something” afoot here, however. With the coming of the invention of gunpowder, the firearm, and various bombs and missiles, men under arms no longer squarely faced one another in mortal combat. The true test of courage was, in that sense, blunted. Oh the dead bodies continue to pile up, but buffered by the mediation of instrumentalities; death is not wielded by hand in hand-to-hand combat anymore. Before long it was the bullets and bomb fragments doing the flesh-parting (or incineration). Not so, in the days of the legendary William Wallace.

And now we have 5G induced bio-terror and cyber warfare, along with a host of diabolic weaponry, some even satellite-assisted. For just a sampling go here.   

All this to say, man-to-man kinetic warfare may seem obsolete in a lot of ways. But Scottish blood has not been spilled in vain. As long as it is the blood of free men and women standing up for their life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness it is worthwhile. Moral strength feeds positive spiritual karma. Just as brains let loose fine words, brains plus brawn will always play an integral part in a righteous people’s overt struggles against the prince of this world. Bodies remain bodies, subject to being thwarted and destroyed, along with the Luciferian infestation within.

The proud Scots stand tall in our Western tradition. The spirit of their brave souls remains to rise again and nudge the forthrightness of liberty again, as we all fight the good fight. Demons and tyrants beware!
