With Gideon's defeat of the Midianites I'm reminded of the hysteria 
gripping America now.  We have two basic hysteria's, I think going on.  
One is terrorism and all the war like commotion, including cyber scare and 
increased police presence.  The other is the victim culture exploited by 
the media.  People are in a panic.  It's neighbor against neighbor.  Trust 
no one suspect everyone.  1 800 turn turn in whoever you feel like.  So 
how would an enemy divide and conquer a powerful nation like America?  I 
don't think they could have devised a more brilliant plan than the divide 
and conquer that's going on now exploited in this information/media age 
with the public's arrogance.  The only solution has always been humble 
unity which is smothered in pride in America.  In the Bible great nations 
fell because of pride.  Pray for America.
