And the enemy is?

The Numbers Station

Cusack is excellent in this kind of thing.

Of course, with him it’s always the same.

In any movie featuring both bad guys and agents of the US government, the agents are the bad guys or they're as bad as the gad guys.

[Update. In this case the not-really-worse-than-our-side enemy is just called "the other side."]

And they’re not always rogues.

So it’s the US government that’s the bad guys.

Cusack is by no means alone in this.

Those are the films we get from Hollywood or wherever.

I sometimes think it's because we have run out of usable enemies.

Sitting here in the Western Hemisphere, an ocean away from anybody who could or even might want to make trouble for us, the US has no enemies that are not enemies of choice, selected for our globalist interventions and wars of choice.

And lately our enemies of choice are people it is not politically acceptable to all or even most Americans to so regard.

Who could be our problem, after all?

Muslim terrorists?

Islamophobia, Zionism, etc.

Russia?

Why is Russia a problem, or our problem?

China? Korea?

Why are we in the Far East, anyway?
