The ongoing war in Ukraine between the US and NATO and Russia, like the fresh phase of Israel's war with the Palestinian people, proved that there are no defence systems that would give the fighting parties comparative security.
And there is no specified security—in the basic spheres of life—that would supply peace in a universal sense, formulated on the basis of Christian Augustine-tomist philosophy. erstwhile we talk about this meaning, we mean the concept of peace as consent (Concordia, order (ordo) and peace (tranquillitas), above all, the common good (bonum commune) and justice as an overarching principle, determining all these values. The goal of justice as a condition of peace is to make “all things right”. Both past and modern times show that there is no form of safety that would warrant everyone what is rightful and at the same time make a common good. The thought of the safety of the peacekeeper – and this is the only 1 we are dealing with present – not only does not supply specified guarantees, but on the contrary is simply a denial of these advanced values. But peace, fulfilling justice and common good, creates safety as a result.
Meanwhile, the Collective West – or more specifically transatlantic globalists – built on the thought of safety an all-powerful ideology, through which they expelled the anti-Christian civilization of peace. In the name of maintaining the U.S. hegemony vassalized by them, the collective West transformed NATO's archaic anti-Soviet alliance into a pro-war, ever-expanding anti-Russian alliance, and on the very thought of safety built the ideology essential for the war with Moscow. The basic words-keys of this ideology in relation to Russia – holding back, threatening, disintegration, demolition – attest to the direction that excludes peace. Ukraine is simply a tragic victim of the safety ideology that the United States subordinate West implements in a ruthless way. For legal and moral legitimacy of his war activities against Russia he created the concept of the safety of the Natovian "territory". In this way a fresh determinant was appointed not only political, but besides cultural-civilization and moral military defence against the imaginary enemy. The concept of defending the native land was converted into an thought of defending the NATO territory on the basis of allied solidarity. However, this conversion raises a fundamental question about the nature of patriotism as the basis for fighting the enemy. Can we inactive tell Polish soldiers about Polish patriotism or just Natowski? Should they defend Russia with the same sense of patriotic work as Warsaw? We can ask dozens of these school questions. And no of the major players in the collective West will answer them, due to the fact that they have become entangled in the fresh York safety that cannot be guaranteed without peace.
This apparent fact has late been confirmed on the 1 hand by attacks on the Red Sea, which has not yet taken place in global anti-Zionist and anti-American policies, by Huta's movement on Israel-US protectors and their allies. On the another hand, the massive attack of Hamas on Israel, beginning the next phase of the permanent war between the judaic state and the Palestinian people, who have not yet owned their own state. The militants of the “little” Huti showed that there is no safety of global supply. Israel, on the another hand, showed that it was impossible for his safety to be announced in 1947 by the United Nations that the Palestinian State would emergence alongside the judaic State. On the another hand, the Israeli business of the Palestinian Gaza Strip and the genocide of the local civilian population is possible, resembling the actions of Nazi Germany during planet War II.
It is clear that the Israelis, blocking the uprising of Palestine, cannot feel safe in their country formed in an area inhabited for centuries by the Palestinians. Peace between these tragically conflicted nations could warrant them safe coexistence. His condition, however, must be the rule of justice, declaring that all must be given what is due to him. The Palestinians, then. This 1 decision would destruct the origin of the permanent Israeli-Palestinian war and reduce the scale of mediate East panic and emigration towards Europe. For decades, further Israeli authorities and their western allies from the US have preferred to supply the judaic state with various forms of safety – from diplomatic to arms – alternatively than to force the Palestinian state to consent.
Historical analogues
Security is simply a word-key, which since the Euromaidan of Kiev in 2014 became NATO's programme quilt – and consequently dominated all forms of Western discourse, imposed on the remainder of the world. Moreover, the concept of safety has become the basis for expanding the national territory, which is intended for the states of this alliance to constitute a sacred safety space. The increasing NATO territory may match an empire – more Mongolian than Roman. Its size is built by a military force, which, unfortunately, is not a civilisational force. Similarly, the size of the Mongol Empire, maintained by the effectiveness of his troops, which, without giving any warrant of improvement to the conquered world, ensured the regular submission of the Danes to the Khans. Their empire was written in the past of civilization precisely due to the fact that it passed on to its Asian vassals and the Eastern-European Turkish way of exercising power – through the strength of the army.
Unlike the Mongolian model, the Roman Empire has made a Copernican civilizational coup in the lives of conquered communities and nations. They have discovered a common community based on the concept of natural law. Eleven centuries before the existence of the only military empire of Mongolia, Marek Tullius Cicero formulates the thought of natural law as a "right of sound reason" which "cannot be changed by others, nor repealed in any part of it, nor abolished entirely. He cannot release us from him either the legislature or the people [...]. It is not different in Rome, and others in Athens, others now, and others later, but as a single law of its kind, eternal and unvarying, encompassing all nations as well as all times." Above all, the regulation of ancient Rome differs from the medieval Mongol regulation over Asia and a large part of Europe.
Christianity has full taken over this perfect concept of law, above which St. Thomas of Aquinas set only God's law. In the Mongolian model, the borders of the empire reached places where the victorious armies of Khans reached. In the Roman model, troops not only set the limits of the emperor's regulation but besides guaranteed the enforcement of the applicable law. There are, of course, a number of another differences between these models. However, this seems crucial due to analogies with the structures of the planet today.
Civilizational degradation in the safety program
From a civilizational point of view, however, much more crucial is the similarity of the collective West – determined by the vector of force and ideology of war integrating NATO territory – with the Mongol Empire in the sphere of religion. The inspiration for specified an analogy is Felix Koneczny. By Mieczysław Krąpka Concisely showed why the erstwhile strong Christianity of Central Asia fell in the religiously tolerant Mongol Empire. This tolerance – characteristic of the Turkish-Mongolian civilization – achieved a destructive level of indifference for religion, excluding state support for this sphere and giving emergence to arrogance for its accompanying spirituality. That is why the Protestant Christianity, which played an crucial function in the Asian area, disappeared into a religiously indifferent empire. What Krąc emphasizes in Koneczne's thought inactive matters:
"The solution to the terrifying question how it could have happened lies, according to the Coneical, in that Asian Christianity was a defunct Christianity, a Christianity that did not dare radically transform a society whose full structure was contrary to Christian religion. Christianity encountered a Turkish civilization here, with which a trial in another sizes and depths would be more essential than a trial with a classical antiquity civilization. Nestoriańian Christianity neglected this trial – the task simplified in an insufficient, inconsistent way. He agreed to their sustained compromises, weakened his own moral demands in favour of the non-Christian surrounding world, whose conversion was not easy" (p. 130) [ii]
The level of Western indifference towards Christianity, which built its greatness, reached a critical point in the 21st century. Its evidence is the EU Lisbon Treaty – signed by the president of the Republic of Poland Lech Kaczyński and ratified by the Polish Sejm. The treaty is anti-nomial to the foundations of European civilization, aimed at promotion and privileges for all minorities rejecting universal Christian values. The famed tolerance turned into its opposites and became an enemy force, destroying Christian identity, tradition and evangelical universalism. And the size of NATO, built on the thought of an imaginary external enemy and a safety ideology, was useless. Christianity, attacked insidiously by Western ideologies and organization and neocolonial dependence, "weakened its own moral demands in favour of the non-Christian surrounding world." Moreover, they accepted the fresh language of this world, which brought into the life of modern man false ontological, moral, historical.
The North Atlantic Alliance has not defended Christianity anywhere – either in the West or in the mediate East. On the contrary, by conducting wars in the mediate East, he contributed to the genocide of Christians during their course. In addition, he introduced the promotion of anti-Christian sex ideology to the programme of his actions for the celebrated security. The historical example of this promotion was the admission of transgenders to the American army. And no of Natov's command had the courage to tell the fact about them in the authoritative safety communicative – that they were crippled people, not only incapable to pass on life and addicted to hormonal treatment, but above all suffering from individual identity disorders. Are specified soldiers able to guarantee the safety of others?
Unfortunately, this fact is besides not presented by Western Christian confessions – enslaved by the slogans of universal tolerance. They are besides incapable to proclaim the fact of the false notion of security, by which the armed industry, war speculators and a crowd of war propagandists multiply profits, and alongside them the celebrated "golden billion" of humanity surviving at the expense of victims of wars, revolutions, coups carried out to preserve their safe position quo.
Western Christianity has not only weakened its own moral, religious, metaphysical postulates for anti-Christian leftist-liberal ideologies, but besides expresses their new-word suicide tolerance for usurped rights. The failure of its leading moral and cultural-civilization function proves that in the anthropological sphere both the ideology of safety and false tolerance do not defend anyone and nothing from degradation and destruction. On the contrary, they are instruments for shaping infantile man and infantile society—giving their freedom to militarized power in the name of a utopian imagination of safe Arcadia. Authentic safety can only be provided by a area built in the Augustin-Tomist concept.
