General Douglas MacArthur's Prophetic Warning to the American People Foreshadowing the Socialistic Infiltration of our Constitutional Republic and Free Enterprise System
"This is the Voice of Freedom, General MacArthur speaking..."
The resonant voice cracked over the Signal Corps microphone, the people listening to him intently as he stood on the beach of Leyte, Philippines on that Day of Days in October 1944. "Rally to me! Rise and strike! . . . For your homes and hearths, strike! For future generations of your sons and daughters, strike! In the name of your sacred dead, strike! Let no heart be faint. Let every arm be steeled. The guidance of Divine God points the way."America the Battlefield

Love him or hate him, the indomitable General of the Army, Douglas MacArthur (1880-1964), an indelible military genius, was a great American—perhaps one of the greatest. He was a patriot, a warrior, a statesman, a rebel, a leader, a brilliant commander and a poet who never minced words nor failed to accomplish the mission at hand. He excelled at everything he put his hand to, and set the bar high and lofty for all men and women who are desirous to be actively engaged in the animating contest of Freedom. MacArthur lived in tumultuous times and presided over great struggles and battles fought for reasons up to and including the preservation of Liberty in every clime and place.
"You couldn't shrug your shoulders at Douglas MacArthur," observed historian David McCullough. "There was nothing bland about him, nothing passive about him, nothing dull about him. There's no question about his patriotism, there's no question about his courage, and there's no question, it seems to me, about his importance as one of the protagonists of the 20th century."
Once again our nation and world finds ourselves at the brink of regional and global war and conflict which defined MacArthur's time—the pre-staging of a third global conflagration with its preceding economic sanctions, currency wars and monetary realignments. With that in mind, the words in his farewell memoir could have been written today, because if you study the cycles of human nature, sociology, economics, weather, solar activity, civil unrest and war, history not only repeats itself, it rhymes.

A good article, worth reading.
At the same time, these types of pieces are bittersweet since the one that they're heralding certainly took his pound of flesh in doing the very things that the piece implicitly speaks about, never seemed to have an issue with it, and posed as a christian in dragging Christ's name through the mud with him as he crafted Christ in his own image, not in the image that the Christ himself in the New Testament formed.
