America at 250: a reckoning and a call to conscience : Comments

By Alon Ben-Meir, published 10/7/2026

What hunger in the human soul chooses chains over courage, a demagogue over the demanding art of freedom?

Alon you raise several issues in your call to conscience. Let’s hope enough people heed it.

My first gripe may be pedantic, but it gets right up my left nostril every time. The USA is not America. America is several continents, of which the USA is but 1 country on the North American continent. Stop calling the USA America. It isn’t.

I do an Angela Merkel worthy eye role every time I read a commentator on this blog bemoan the :…left wing, communist, Marxist, woke destruction of western civilization as we know it …” syndrome. Good grief, as Alon has so clearly mapped out for you, you are watching that in real time right now in the USA, being lead by an extremist fascist, not a left wing Marxist. Get a grip people.

Quite a poetic essay there full of flowery assertions.

A shame it didn't contain a single verifiable fact.
