Ah,.. thanks. I was just confused as to the subject of France's doing something right, as they're generally so bad at that.

I've made what I hope are the final rewrites to my China-Japan book.
The major changes were to "Part VII East Asian history since the end
of World War II," in order to strengthen as much as possible the case
the China is planning for launch a war against Japan. I also added an
interesting chapter on Cognitive Dissonance at the end of the book,
and how it relates to generational theory.

It's now 304 pages, 115K words.

I'm going to proofread it a few more times, then push the "publish"
button next week.

John, in your generational history of China, you left out the period between the Sui reunification and the mongol conquest (roughly the late 6th through 13th centuries). Also Japan's history should be fleshed out more (you seem to start your analysis with Sengoku period and the Imjin war of 1592-98). Analysis of Imperial Japan and Late Qing China to the Cultural revolution is very detailed. However the Boxer rebellion analysis is incorrect in my opinion, the generational split was between Older traditionalists and Younger Modernizers, so much so that the Empress dowager (who controlled the state at the time) ordered the purge of the nominal emperor and his associates around the shortly before the boxer rebellion occurred.

So, let's see. The mass immigration of migrants flooding into Europe and raping, robbing, murdering across the continent was not enough to boost 'muscular Catholicism' or western nationalism, but the burning down of this church will? You know, sometimes I really have to question some of the posts on this board. Your arguments have always been schizophrenic, but this one is just stupid.

Europe is a collection people--a bloodline, DNA, culture, and language. The destruction of its people is more cause for concern than the destruction of a building. An yet, Europe continues to plow ahead with its own self destruction. But you believe that this event will spur western nationalism and the Church Militant? HAHAHAHA Good one. I'm going to have to add this one to my little red book stupid things stupid people say.
Firstly, Europe is not "a" bloodline, or monoculture, or single language region.

Europe is "run", as it were, by people who are not interested in being European. They are interested in becoming richer on the backs of their slaves, the various peoples of Europe.

Shocking events CAN, not "must" by any means, but CAN spur a "change in perspective" of masses of people.

I'm kinda left to conclude, by what you SEEM to be saying, that you're looking forward to "The West" declining as a culture!

..so, why should anyone rooting FOR western civilization want to listen to your defeatist BS?
Western civilization won't be saved by weirdos like you, fishbelly. It will be saved by men who clearly recognize that Western Civilization is in trouble and endangered; not because a building burned down, but because of flip-flopping, smug, ignorant losers like fishbelly.
I actually agree with you that it will be saved by people not like you at all.

You want the west to fall, so that you can play out your "delightful" wish to assume command of your own little band of racist thugs and purify the countryside in pursuit of your lust for master status over a group of unter-slaves (subservient "countrymen") and subhuman slaves (non-countrymen of "foreign blood") with which to enrich yourself.

What you're after is the destruction of western representative civilization and its replacement with totalitarian slave society.
You're the panty waist, fishbelly, not the others you constantly attack for being 'racist'.
I don't attack them for being racists. I simply describe them AS racists.

No one has to take my opinion as anything but my opinion.

I do agree with you that the term "racist" is certainly thrown around FAR too often, and VERY often simply to shut people up.

I want those who I call racists, who actually ARE racists, to talk as much as possible!

You people betray yourselves profoundly the more you speak. Please,.. please keep talking!
Whether globalists like it or not, Germany was/is a western country. The boomer/globalist narrative that excludes Germany's governments in the first half of the 20th century from the category of "western nation" is an artificial construct.

France's decline was precipitated by the rejection of the Militarist noble class during the 1870s shortly after the Franco-Prussian war, embodied by the anchoring of the globalist Third republic by 1877.

Yeah,.. Germany is and was and always has been a "western country".

Thanks in advance. :)

I'm referring to the west having generally rejected the legitimacy of Germany's governments when looking back at the period of 1900 to 1945. The very idea of regarding those governments as a positive force in any arena is rejected by the current historiography.

Doesn't Trump need congressional approval to support Hafter? At this stage, congress wouldn't let Trump support Winston Churchill against Nazi Germany.

Obviously, China's history is enormous, and someone could easily write
a multi-volume series tens of thousands of pages long on China's
history. Like everyone else writing a history, I have to select what
events to include.

Many histories read like laundry lists of events. For example,
a history of the US might have a chapter on each US president,
and what happened in each administration.

Historical analysis in generational theory focuses on events that are
affecting people's attitudes today. For example, a generational
history of the US would include the crisis wars (Revolutionary war,
Civil War, WW II), but would not include, or would barely mention,
other wars -- Indian wars, Mexican-American war, Spanish-American war,
WW I, Korean War, Vietnam War, 1991 Iraq war. Even the 2003 Iraq war
today is almost forgotten, except for some irrelevant political myths.

So in the case of China, one could write a history that consists
essentially a laundry list of dynasties, with a description of the
political events that happened in each one.

But I chose a different strategy in selecting events to include
in a generational history of China.

For the early dynasties, I focused on the stuff that's relevant today:
the stuff on the mandate from heaven, the Art of War, Confucius, and
Daoism. For later dynasties, the focus was on rebellions based in
religions -- Christianity, Islam, Buddhism.

So just as you would have difficulty finding an American who knows
anything about Martin Van Buren, or has even heard of him, I doubt
that you'll find a Chinese who knows anything about the Sui dynasty.
As for the Boxer Rebellion, the details of what happened are less
important than the perception today that if was a declaration of war
against the West, and part of the fabric of the "Century of
Humiliation."

** 20-Apr-2019 War Powers Act
Guest wrote: > Doesn't Trump need congressional approval to support Hafter? At

The War Powers Act was passed in the 1970s over President Nixon's
veto, following the Vietnam War, which many people considered an
illegal war launched by Presidents Kennedy and Johnson. It's purpose
is to force the president to "consult with Congress" when American
armed forces are being committed to a foreign war.

The act has never been tested by the Supreme Court, and many people
consider it to be unconstitutional.

https://fas.org/sgp/crs/natsec/R42699.pdf

Today, the War Powers act is being used by Congress to try to
limit Trump's support of Saudi Arabia in Yemen.

The act does not apply to Trump's phone call with Haftar, since
that's just a phone call.
