I have followed your work for sometime and listen to many podcasts where you discuss Catholic theology. You graciously go on podcasts large and small. I really like my priest but he comes of age of the "Liberation Theology" mindset and it is sometimes really hard to bear. But you and Bishop Barron ground my faith. Secondary principles cannot become the guiding principles without throwing the ship off course.
As to the War on Terror and the surveillance state, I remember the voiced concerns over the Patriot Act following 911. While a then subscriber to many left leaning publications, I didn't appreciate the danger. It put sharks in water that I thought reamined a placid lake. The Patriot Act, promised only to point outwards, was soon swung inwards to point at us. Now, I understand Ron Paul's long held stances against government overreach "power." Good intentions are irrelevant when the results are predictable.
I also greatly appreciate that you frequently discuss Buck v. Bell (1927) and its significance. During Covid, the media heralded the use of Jacobson v. Mass as a good use of police power during a crisis. That decision was about the payment of a fine for refusing a vax and not the Police Power to inject. That MSM and legal organizations heralded its use without looking at its offspring was a huge red flag. It is an axiom that bad decisions lead to more bad decisions, and this one was a doozy. For those unfamiliar with the case, respected jurist Holmes relied on Jacobson to justify the State's Power to sterilize those deemed unfit to reproduce. Buck v. Bell would be cited by defendants at the Nuremberg trials. Eugenics didn't originate in Germany. The US exported it by the likes of Rockefeller and others. It was originally developed in England by the otherwise brilliant mathematician Francis Galton, cousin to Darwin. He and others intended to reduce suffering but unwittingly increased it exponentially during the 20th century. Holmes also wrote the often-repeated phrase 'You can't yell fire in a theater' to justify stomping out disapproved speech during the madness. What MSM didn't tell you was that the phrase came from a decision upholding a criminal conviction of a socialist/pacifist handing out leaflets opposing the US entry in WWI. (Schenck v. the US.) Schenck believed the war was on behalf of monied interests. A little over a decade later, General Smedley Butler would make the same argument in his book "War is a Racket." While Butler received praise for his honesty, Schneck received prison time. Interesting how one of the most respected US jurists was also tied to two decisions (both later overturned) to justify police power in every aspect of our lives.
Satan seems to like the idea of ONE. That term is used in so many nefarious operations.
Eg. WHO’s One Health
Dr.Peter Jones wrote a book entitled One or Two.
“One or Two describes as "One-ism" and "Two-ism," the two ways of being spiritual. One-ism believes that everything that exists is of one substance and that the goal of theology, spirituality and even sexuality is to destroy all distinctions, and bring all things together. Two-ism believes that there is a God outside creation who made all that is not God and has structured creation for the good of humanity…”
I did not know that. But I see it in lots of places now. A couple of years ago new blood bank was constructed in a drug infested poor section of Chattanooga named One Blood. https://www.oneblood.org/
The drug addicts sell their blood for a hit and the poor sell their blood for bread.
Maybe the elephant in the room is the profitable meddling of pharmaceutical companies (Pfizer for instance) who stood to gain from the police state that "mandated" the COVID jabs. This was a big contributor to the reeking mess that injured and killed so many. It wasn't just something afflicting the US civil government either. Pfizer got its tentacles all over the Vatican early on in the "pandemic" and their jab was mandated for everyone there. I've wondered how many were sickened and killed there as a consequence. And I thought I might vomit when at the prayers of the faithful one day, I heard the plea "that more people might be willing to receive the COVID vaccinations". I tend to believe Pfizer's expert level marketeering was skilled enough to promote the pretense of charity to one's fellows as the justification for ramming them with their kill shots.

"Ein Volk, ein Reich, ein Führer"
One People, One Realm, One Leader".
This was Hitler’s slogan.

One ism is pagan religions.
Remember when the U.S. Army changed its recruiting pitch from “Be All That You Can Be” to “An Army of One”? It happened in 2001. 🤔

Hitler never broke a law, or changed Germany's constitution. For 12 years his edicts were made under “Emergency Authorizations”.
Your point is valid and excellent Dr. Kheriaty.
Spare a thought for UK freedom of expression
What UK freedom of expression?
Yup, everything is still in place for a re-run. How many of those that fell for it last time will fall for it again? That is our open question.

When is a vaccine not a vaccine? When it doesn't prevent infection or transmission. It should be called Homeland juice.
Good week to become a spiritual warrior and engage in prayer.
