i jus finished this book and i can't help but think "this is all too familiar" i mean the three world superpowers oceania(america, england) eurasia(europe, russia) and east asia(arabic and oriental states). And with the passing of the "patriots" act which allows the american government to monitor its citizens without their consent its all too close to the story. while i don't think orwell was a seer i do believe that he was a political genius who predicted how communism would fall way before anyone imagined. why couldn't he be right about how paranoid governments use advanced technology to monitor their citizens every move
don't stop war otherwise the end will never come
