CIVIL WAR

by David Nuttle

Civil wars, such as the ones in Russia, England, Spain, Vietnam, and America are very costly in terms of blood and treasure. It is time to learn from this history as U. S. division between socialist Democrats and Republicans could be escalated into another American civil war. Social media hate speech is clearly promoting such an event.

The American civil war, 1861 to 1865, cost not less than $6.5 billion & 350,000 troops killed from the North and over 260,000 troops killed from the Confederacy. The industrial north had economic, social, political, and ideological differences with the agrarian south dependent on nearly 4-million black slaves to grow and harvest cotton crops for export. When members of the north attempted to start a slave rebellion that created enough fear in the south for them to start a civil war. As history records, the North won and the slaves were freed. America was dramatically changed by this armed conflict.

In Vietnam, the end of the Le Dynesty resulted in a civil war, 1627 to 1662, between Trinh clans of the North and Nguyen clans of the South over control of Vietnam. This tragic armed conflict was started by a Trinh attack, on the Nguyen, with over 200,000 troops and 500 war elephants. Portuguese traders had provided the Nguyen with cannons that they used to kill troops and cause the elephants to flee. Dutch traders would soon help arm the Trinh to make this conflict lengthy & bloody. Nguyen forces were strengthened by an alliance w/ the small Champa empire on the coast adjoining Vietnam. The Nguyen later annexed Champa. Our Vietnam War was actually started as a second civil war, with the Trinh being communist under Ho Chi Minh and the Nguyen being led by Ngo Dien Diem of the democratic regime the U. S. helped to start. As I explained in another blog, the U. S. made this second Viet civil war into a "shooting war" as an extension of our Cold War with Russia.

Any persons who have experienced the horrors and losses of armed conflict are certain there needs to be a better way to resolve political differences. Those persons and groups using hate speech and riots to promote a new civil war are known to have no exposure to the horrors such armed. conflicts cause. Their apparent objective is to destroy America as we have known it and create their false dream of a "socialist utopia." While this activity is taking place, we have jihadists in our nations seeking to make the U. S. an Islamic caliphate. In addition, CCP (Chinese) terrorist teams are known to be here w/ mission to create social chaos and terrorist attack damages sufficient to destroy our government to soon facilitate a communist takeover. Social chaos in New York City, just facilitated its Nov 2025 election of a communist Mayor, Mamdani.

We all need to help motivate compromise and political solutions to differences we have as Americans. Legal actions need to be taken to control or remove the Islamic jihadists and communists we have allowed to freely operate in our nation. Illegal migrants working to harm Americans must be quickly deported. Foreign immigrants, such the Islamic Somalia, should be required to integrate into our society and not create isolated communities to practice their own customs, culture, and language. Private armies should not be allowed. An example of same is the Aryan Army based on a 400-acre well-fortified compound known as Elohim City, in Adair County, Oklahoma. The PRC (China) must not be allowed to acquire farms near of military bases. CCP (Chinese Communist Party) covert agents need to be stopped from buying small farms, with cash and false IDs, for CCP terror teams to use a safe bases. We need to support POTUS Trump in his efforts to secure our borders and deport illegals who are criminals and/or terrorists. To prevent a new civil war we need a truly secure nation.
