Force 10 from Navarone (clip)

The little tiny bombs that were planted inside our governing infrastructure. Seemingly harmless, or only causing minor damage. Many of those trying to destroy our nation were impatient at the time, wanted to see it all go up in a big explosion. Felt betrayed by their fellow travelers who were put into power. Many of those trying to protect our nation breathed a sigh of relief that we escaped the threat relatively unscathed, moved on to traditional political battles.

But the tiny bombs did explode. At very critical places. Weakened the governing infrastructure. And those who strategically planted them surrendered to time and let nature take its course.

This clip is a visual representation of what was done to our nation. The big explosion never came. The erosion of the dam that held back massive energy is occurring. Chunks of concrete falling away, leaks springing out everywhere. I don't know if it's even possible to keep it from catastrophically failing. The battle will shift to what happens next, when the massive wall of water flows downstream. Who's best prepared to win the aftermath? Maybe that's where our efforts and resources need to shift if the collapse of the dam is a forgone conclusion?

Funny how when as a child you would dig a deep hole jokingly saying you would dig a hole to China? Sure enough we did and I wish it were the vortex to suck all these villainous traitors down to where such perfidy is eternally punished.
