While people were in a daze of reverie following the lunar eclipse and the Pope’s U.S. visit, a very important yet overlooked announcement was made by the Department of Justice.
“Launch of Strong Cities Network to Strengthen Community Resilience Against Violent Extremism”
rang the bell to usher in a global-local initiative to ferret out
extremism at the local level – yes, in the United States. Symbolically,
it could also signal a turning point when it comes to local authorities
and their treatment of the residents at large. Indeed, it is a global enmeshment that most Americans are either a) in the total dark about, or b) going hysterical over, if they’ve heard about it.
