YouTube sensation Stefan Molyneux is making what he calls a “final plea for peace” and hoping president Donald Trump will take heed. Although the rhetoric from both the US and Russia appears to be heading us all towards a war, Molyneux is asking the power-hungry politicians to take a step back before they destroy all of us.
War will affect regular human beings in a far more serious capacity than it will the elite and wealthy globalists. Perhaps that’s why there is such a push to start a massive conflict that will lead to deaths of many. But Molyneux is pleading for peace in his latest YouTube video.
He begins his plea by detailing the horrific losses his family has already suffered because of war. He also says he’s lucky that he wasn’t drafted in a useless war. He said maybe it was fate and maybe he was spared for a reason.
“Maybe that reason is now,” says Molyneux. “We can afford war no more. War was one thing when it was twenty men and clubs. War was another thing when it was a few hundred soldiers whacking at each other with swords in a field. War was one thing when it was 1000 archers raining death…in fields far from the general population. War, in the west, is unaffordable. It is unconscionable and it will end not just us, but everything and everyone.”
And to those who say “its just Syria” Molyneux would like to remind you that there are people who wish to be free and live to see more days in Syria too and they are nonetheless human beings like the rest of us. Even Russian president Vladimir Putin said recently “the world is becoming more chaotic. Nevertheless, we hope common sense will eventually prevail.”
“War is not what it was,” Molyneux says later in his video. “War is live. War cannot be filtered. War cannot be turned into a pastel painting of a guy on horse riding up a hill with a sword in his hand. War can no longer be mythologized. War is the brutal individualistic disassembling of human beings to have a right to survive.”
In the West, as Molyneux explains, we only see a sanitized version of war because America is so often the violent aggressor. And if Trump attacks Syria, it will be as it has been: America will prove itself the aggressor in this newest war. And those who are against the senseless slaughter of others sit back helplessly because there’s nothing we can do to stop it. But Molyneux tries. He makes a plea directly to president Donald Trump for peace.
“I say this you: Donald J. Trump. I hate the fact that it comes down to one man, but you are the commander in chief…such a burden should never rest on any one person’s shoulders. Or any 1000 people’s shoulders for that matter. But right now, given the way things are, it comes down to one man and that man is you. And you, and you alone, have the power to say ‘yes’ to the war or ‘no’ to the war…what does matter is that the people who voted for you handed you the kind of trust and sacrifice that has not been seen in the modern world…they have lost credibility to give YOU the power to STOP THESE WARS!”
Molyneux powerful delivers a plea for peace on behalf of all of us.

Who????
Molyneux, nice try. But what’s coming is already being set into motion. It is not Trump’s actions that will dictate it. The plans were started most likely before he was a gleam in his Daddy’s eye. Trump is just a tool. Without WW3, things might just improve for the world’s ‘downtrodden’, impoverished, average Joes and Janes. Can’t have that. Those who are creating this next stage in human evolution want it all. Ain’t going to share with the peasants. Leave just enough them around to do the nasty stuff for them. The culling must happen in their minds to allow their generational dreams to finally take place.
““I say this you: Donald J. Trump. I hate the fact that it comes down to one man, but you are the commander in chief…such a burden should never rest on any one person’s shoulders.”
I hope you read this, SF.
It does NOT Lawfully come down to one man here in the USA. The US Constitution DELEGATES the ONLY authority to send Americans into war to the Congress. When any US President, and the “Heads of war of all military branches” sends Americans to war without a Congressional DECLARATION of war, they are committing TREASON, a few felonies, a few different Perjuries, war crimes, *terrorism, etc, etc, etc, …
But we have a safely valve there, because ALL military are REQUIRED to take an Oath to a document, the US Constitution, NOT to a person of office, that REQUIRES that they REFUSE UNLAWFUL orders.
J. Reuben Clark: “God provided that in this land of liberty, our political allegiance shall run not to individuals, that is, to government officials, no matter how great or how small they may be. Under His plan our allegiance and the only allegiance we owe as citizens or denizens of the United States, runs to our inspired Constitution which God himself set up. So runs the oath of office of those who participate in government. A certain loyalty we do owe to the office which a man holds, but even here we owe just by reason of our citizenship, no loyalty to the man himself. In other countries it is to the individual that allegiance runs. This principle of allegiance to the Constitution is basic to our freedom. It is one of the great principles that distinguishes this “land of liberty” from other countries”.
All these years of war since WWII has been criminal, and those that sent them traitors, terrorists, etc. Those that followed those orders also committed those crimes because that Oath binds them to SUPPORT AND DEFEND the US Constitution BEFORE the orders of superiors, and BEFORE the duties of the position they occupy.
So why does this not happen? Why did YOU not know those facts that all who are here should know? Did you not take an Oath yourself to the US Constitution, to support and defend it when you became a US Citizen – if you are one?
Here is a concerted effort that has been committed against the US for decades, longer then many of the US soldiers that will be required UNLAWFULLY to fight in those unlawful wars when our legitimate government requires that they REFUSE to GO, and REFUSE to follow any order of those who serve within our governments UNTIL we remove and replace those who have been working against our nation from within, such as the “war hawks” who KNOW, or are required to know that without a congressional declaration of war, NOT ONE AMERICAN OR CONTRACTED MILITARY can lawfully go to war in the American People’s name, or being paid by the American Peoples money.
They (contracted assistance) are required to also know and take an Oath to the US Constitution when they do anything for our governments. The problem is decades of deliberate dumbing down of the American people by our enemies – DOMESTIC and foreign.
Bertrand Russell,1953: “… Diet, injections, and injunctions will combine, from a very early age, to produce the sort of character and the sort of beliefs that the authorities consider desirable, and any serious criticism of the powers that be will become psychologically impossible…” (“The Impact of Science on Society”, Simon and Schuster, New York, 1953)
John C. Calhoun’s 1831 “Fort Hill Address”: “The error is in the assumption that the General Government is a party to the constitutional compact. The States, as has been shown, formed the compact, acting as Sovereign and independent communities. The General Government is but its creature;” See: https://thementalmilitia.net/2017/02/08/john-c-calhoun-fort-hill-address-1831/
As our framers said, it really is in the hands of the American people. But they needed to be educated at least in the US Constitution and the Constitution of their own state. You see, the USA is NOT a democracy, she is a CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC with all authority and power that is ALLOWED to be used by those that SERVE WITHIN our governments put into writing for all to learn, read, and KNOW.
Thomas Jefferson: “The most effectual means of preventing [the perversion of power into tyranny are] to illuminate, as far as practicable, the minds of the people at large, and more especially to give them knowledge of those facts which history exhibits, that possessed thereby of the experience of other ages and countries, they may be enabled to know ambition under all its shapes, and prompt to exert their natural powers to defeat its purposes.”
Thomas Jefferson:“I know no safe depository of the ultimate powers of the society but the people themselves, And if we think them not enlightened enough to exercise their control with a wholesome discretion, the remedy is not to take it from them, but to inform their discretion by education. This is the true corrective of abuses of constitutional power.”
George Washington: “The preservation of the sacred fire of liberty, and the destiny of the Republican model of government, are justly considered as deeply, perhaps as finally staked, on the experiment entrusted to the hands of the American people.”
James Madison, Federalist 46: “… the ultimate authority … resides in the people alone”
That way (being truly educated as to our government) enlisted will not go do war crimes at the bidding of a person in any place within our government – except for the Congress when war is declared by them – who is FORBIDDEN THAT AUTHORITY. No One except those who serve within the Congress can send any American or US government contractor to war without that declaration. So if those that serve within the Military of any rank was SUPPORTING AND DEFENDING our US Constitution as is required of them this would not be happening. Our nation would NOT be broke, etc.
The wording of the Presidential Oath was established in the Constitution in Article II, Section 1, Clause 8.
‘Before he enter on the Execution of his Office, he shall take the following Oath or Affirmation: “I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”’
Notice that the Framers placed the presidential Oath of Office after the beginning clauses which set forth the organization of the executive department, and before the ending clauses that specify the contours of the President’s assigned power. The President is required to take the oath after he assumes the office but before he can lawfully execute it. The location and phrasing of the Oath of Office Clause strongly suggest that it is not empowering, but that it is limiting – the clause limits how the President’s “executive power” is to be exercised.
Here read this from the framers and founders, and also from some traitors to our nation.
George Washington: “It is our true policy to steer clear of entangling alliances with any portion of the foreign world. The great rule of conduct for us in regard to foreign nations is, in extending our commercial relations, to have with them as little political connection as possible.”
Thomas Jefferson: “I have ever deemed it fundamental for the United States never to take active part in the quarrels of Europe. Their political interests are entirely distinct from ours. Their mutual jealousies, their balance of power, their complicated alliances, their forms and principles of government, are all foreign to us. They are nations of eternal war. “
John Quincy Adams: “America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She well knows that by enlisting under other banners than her own, were they even the banners of foreign independence, she would involve herself beyond the power of extrication in all the wars of interest and intrigue, of individual avarice, envy and ambition, which assume the colors and usurp the standards of freedom.”
Thomas Paine: “Not a place upon earth might be so happy as America. Her situation is remote from all the wrangling world, and she has nothing to do but to trade with them.”
Thomas Jefferson: “Peace, commerce and honest friendship with all nations; entangling alliances with none.”
Alexander Hamilton: “Foreign influence is truly the Grecian horse to a republic. We cannot be too careful to exclude its influence.”
James Madison: “The power to declare war, including the power of judging the causes of war, is fully and exclusively vested in the legislature … the executive has no right, in any case, to decide the question, whether there is or is not cause for declaring war.”
George Washington: “The constitution vests the power of declaring war in Congress; therefore no offensive expedition of importance can be undertaken until after they shall have deliberated upon the subject and authorized such a measure.”
James Madison: “In time of actual war, great discretionary powers are constantly given to the Executive Magistrate. Constant apprehension of War, has the same tendency to render the head too large for the body. A standing military force, with an overgrown Executive will not long be safe companions to liberty. The means of defence against foreign danger, have been always the instruments of tyranny at home. Among the Romans it was a standing maxim to excite a war, whenever a revolt was apprehended. Throughout all Europe, the armies kept up under the pretext of defending, have enslaved the people.”
James Madison: “Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few. In war, too, the discretionary power of the Executive is extended; its influence in dealing out offices, honors, and emoluments is multiplied: and all the means of seducing the minds, are added to those of subduing the force, of the people. The same malignant aspect in republicanism may be traced in the inequality of fortunes, and the opportunities of fraud, growing out of a state of war, and in the degeneracy of manners and of morals, engendered by both. No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.
“We are going to have a war on terror which you can never win, and so you can always keep taking people’s liberties away. The media is going to convince everybody that the war on terror is real. The ultimate goal is to get everybody in the world chipped with an RFID chip, and have all money be on the chips, and if anyone wants to protest what we do, we turn off the chip.” Nicholas Rockefeller to producer Aaron Russo – eleven months before the 9/11 World Trade Center attacks
Henry Kissinger in an address to the Bilderberger meeting at Evian, France, May 21, 1992: “”Today Americans would be outraged if U.N. troops entered Los Angeles to restore order; tomorrow they will be grateful! This is especially true if they were told there was an outside threat from beyond whether real or promulgated, that threatened our very existence. It is then that all peoples of the world will pledge with world leaders to deliver them from this evil. The one thing every man fears is the unknown. When presented with this scenario, individual rights will be willingly relinquished for the guarantee of their well being granted to them by their world government.”
just FYI’s
Alexander Hamilton: “We are attempting, by this Constitution, to abolish factions, and to unite all parties for the general welfare.” (Debates in the Convention of the State of New York on the Adoption of the Federal Constitution, Tuesday, June 25, 1788. In: Henry Cabot Lodge, ed., The Works of Alexander Hamilton (Federal Edition), Vol. 2, New York, 1904, p. 57)
John Adams: “There is nothing which I dread so much as a division of the republic into two great parties, each arranged under its leader, and concerting measures in opposition to each other. This, in my humble apprehension, is to be dreaded as the greatest political evil under our Constitution.”
John Adams: “Abuse of words has been the great instrument of sophistry and chicanery, of party, faction, and division of society.”
George Washington, Farewell Address: “Let me… warn you in the most solemn manner against the baneful effects of the spirit of party.”
plus “And of fatal tendency … to put, in the place of the delegated will of the Nation, the will of a party – often a small but artful and enterprising minority. … They are likely, in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the Power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government; destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion.”
And “The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge, natural to party dissension, which in different ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism.”
The House AND Senate are both REQUIRED to read a “bill” three (3)X’s in its entirety per “The Rules of Procedure before voting on the “bill”.
Cal – all those great men are dead. No one alive today in any position of power will ever read nor care about their ignorance of what those founders wrote. I’m not saying forget their words; rather, we must write our own now. And the ink …. the ink shall be our blood upon the page.
Thanks CAL. Great quotes and historic context.
If gov’t listened to people there would be almost no war-ever. When TPTB wants wars they have to propagandize the public and lie to us into supporting it. They know the majority of citizens are now saying enough, stop the g*dd*m wars. Contrary to what the rest of the world has been led to believe, the vast majority of American citizens are tired of wars and disgusted by gov’t continuously ignoring the will of the people.
It is becoming obvious to the American people all these wars are never for our “benefit”. We’ve been fed a lot of b*llsh*t by the deep state. To gain our support we’ve been officially informed it’s because they hate our freedom, or for our security, or some kind of vital interest to the US is at stake, etc. All this is silly. The fact is, TPTB won’t be honest to us, Casey, who was Pres. Reagan’s intelligence director said he would consider his efforts a success when everything the American people believed was not true. Wars do benefit someone; the Mil. Ind. Complex, grows unimaginably wealthier, some type of greater hegemony is achieved, more power and wealth is concentrated, new resources are brought under control, and more. All for entity(ies) the public has little knowledge about; but all achieved by the disposable managed resource called the American citizens who do the fighting and dying for the benefit of a tiny few without ever knowing the truth.
I would earnestly like to believe this Stefan Molyneux video would have the desired effect, but I am not optimistic. I believe the Pres. is being influenced by minions of the deep state who are purposely misrepresenting the facts to him. Is that naive? Go to the ZeroHedge website to read the article “The 6 reasons why the US will attack Syria”. The greater number of us share Mr. Molyneux’s plea for peace. If nothing else I hope the Pres. defaults to his business acumen and instincts and sees the numbers don’t add up.
SM is absolutely correct, if there is another military venture DT will be a one-term lame duck
Pres., the Republican Party and conservatives will suffer shattering defeats in elections for years. A profound degree of pessimism and suspicion will prevail over the pubic against our gov’t.
We face an unprecedented crisis. As President Obama made clear, the planet cannot have the third world adopt the living standards of the first world. Populations are exploding in the places least able to provide for them.
Take a look at the Middle East. The population of this region exponentially exploded after WWII resulting from two factors: one was the wealth from oil and gas, the other was from foreign aid. The people there never showed a capacity to support themselves, becoming reliant on Western money, ideas and aid.
The same applies to Africa. We have started the program to reduce the Middle East’s population. We will need to expand this and do the same to Africa if humanity and the planet has any hope of survival. Gird your loins and Godspeed.
@ Frank.
“As President Obama made clear, the planet cannot have the third world adopt the living standards of the first world.”
Frank, you have missed the point of the last 30-years in the United States, Europe and the remaining 1ST World Countries. It is not that the planet cannot have the third world adopt the living standards of the first world. It is not.
What is happening is the 1ST World Countries are being made to, and have to, adopt the living standards of the Third World.
This is what the Deep State, the Globalists, Hillary Clinton, George Soros, the “Powers That Be,” the rich elites, the corporate oligarchs, the wholly owned MSM, the professional politicians, all of them — this is what they want.
You have to get straight with this fact.
Let the great culling begin. Molyneux, tell your jew masters to stop the war. Oh that’s right, they’ve been planning this ever since WWII.
AC – If you only realized how buffoonish you appear to be.
