\u201cOceania\u201d was a nation described in George Orwell\u2019s \u201c1984\u201d as being comprised of Britain (called \u201cAirstrip One,\u201d) and the United States. There were two other superpowers, namely Eurasia and Eastasia. Other lands rich in resources were contested over, such as Africa and assumingly South America\u2026lands never kept by any of three Super-states for any significant period. The \u201cflux\u201d in conquests was exactly what the MIC (Military Industrial Complex) of our time would have termed \u201cnecessary\u201d to justify large expenditures: War as the focal purpose, rather than the exceptional event.<\/p>\n

We see a parallel in today\u2019s world with huge defense budgets and troop deployments keeping the contracts on the move and siphoning off a considerable amount of national revenues to keep the patriotic war machines moving\u2026respective of each nation. The psychology: keep the population agitated and on a continual war-footing, using a \u201cthreat\u201d (either real, created, or imagined) to accomplish this.<\/p>\n

You are witnessing the final alignment of those spheres of influence that are almost identical to the novel that Orwell wrote. Look at the situation with the alleged Russian poisoning of an intelligence operative and his daughter in Britain. The United States showed \u201csolidarity\u201d with Great Britain by expelling 60 Russian diplomats and closed the Russian consulate in Seattle, Washington. Russia countered by ordering the expulsion of an equal amount of American embassy personnel.<\/p>\n

Yet the interesting fact is that the other nations who followed suit in the \u201chumanitarian crusade\u201d of the alleged Russian poisoning of former FSB agent Skripal and his daughter? The poisoning may have been done by the British<\/em>, not the Russians. The U.S. State Department has made several statements to the tune that the Russians do not \u201csee eye to eye with us or share our values of freedom and democracy.\u201d<\/p>\n
