A PROPHETIC STATEMENT BY LINCOLN?

Wow - This was from his Lyceum Address which was given in Illinois in 1838.  Right before the Saints arrived from being driven from Missouri - and then were driven out of Illinois as the second paragraph foreshadowed.  The first paragraph foreshadows the approach of danger that will occur in the same state of Illinois (Chicago area) later on this year as the CWII busts out and then is followed by the surprise nuke attacks on our military installations by the Russians (as Cleon Skousen, Dmitri Duduman and others have pointed out).  This is going to be an interesting year, indeed.
Shall we expect some transatlantic military giant to step the ocean and crush us at a blow? Never! All the armies of Europe, Asia, and Africa combined, with all the treasure of the earth (our own excepted) in their military chest, with a Bonaparte for a commander, could not by force take a drink from the Ohio or make a track on the Blue Ridge in a trial of a thousand years. At what point then is the approach of danger to be expected? I answer. If it ever reach us it must spring up amongst us; it cannot come from abroad. If destruction be our lot we must ourselves be its author and finisher. As a nation of freemen we must live through all time or die by suicide.
Lincoln indirectly blamed slavery for lawlessness in the United States.[3] In this context he warned that
whenever the vicious portion of [our] population shall be permitted to gather in bands of hundreds and thousands, and burn churches, ravage and rob provision stores, throw printing-presses into rivers, shoot editors, and hang and burn obnoxious persons at pleasure and with impunity, depend upon it, this government cannot last. By such things the feelings of the best citizens will become more or less alienated from it, and thus it will be left without friends, or with too few, and those few too weak to make their friendship effectual.
