US Military Veterans Turning to Domestic Terror? A Nation on the Edge
What has recently happened in the United States is nothing short of shocking. Imagine — if even 50% of this had happened in a country like India, social media would be flooded with panic, videos, and people declaring it’s time to leave the country. But when such events unfold in the U.S., the reactions are strangely muted.
In the past 24 hours alone, three major attacks have rocked the U.S., not by foreign terrorists, but by its own military veterans — people who once served the country in uniform are now planting bombs and killing civilians on American soil.
The Case of Matthew Levensburg
One such alarming case occurred right outside the Trump Hotel, where a Tesla Cybertruck was blown up in a fiery explosion. It was later revealed that the man behind this attack was Matthew Levensburg, a highly trained, elite U.S. Army veteran who had served extensively in Afghanistan.
Before ending his life, Levensburg left behind a chilling message: “The U.S. is on the verge of collapse.”
He claimed he committed the act to get people’s attention, because in his words, “Americans don’t take problems seriously until violence forces them to.”
This is not just a crime — it’s a psychological cry from someone who was once entrusted with the nation’s security.
Extremism Within the Ranks?
Now, let’s put this into perspective: Imagine if Indian Army veterans began blowing up vehicles in India to make a political statement. The entire media ecosystem, especially the Western press, would raise concerns about the country’s stability.
Yet, in the U.S., cases like Levensburg’s are becoming more frequent. His act wasn’t driven by religion or ideology but by a deep sense of disillusionment and a belief that his country is failing.
And this isn’t the only case. A recent attack in New Orleans was also carried out by a former U.S. Army soldier. That case seemed more ideologically motivated, possibly influenced by Islamic State propaganda, but again — a U.S. citizen, not a foreign terrorist.
What Makes Matthew’s Case Worse
Matthew didn’t just plant a bomb and run. He sat inside the vehicle, shot himself, and then the bomb exploded — all planned down to the last detail. He left behind a detailed document accusing U.S. intelligence agencies (FBI, CIA) of surveilling him because of his insider knowledge of America’s military operations and war crimes in Afghanistan.
He also claimed that he knew about the U.S. military’s secret surveillance programs, especially those using drones for mass data collection within America itself.
Is the U.S. Headed Toward Collapse?
While one might say that this is just the voice of a disturbed veteran, it’s important to remember that Donald Trump himself, the leading presidential candidate, recently stated that the U.S. is becoming a joke on the world stage. He warned that without drastic changes, the country might not survive the next century in its current form.
With rising debt, internal divisions, and veterans suffering from PTSD after decades of war, the U.S. is sitting on a ticking time bomb. Thousands of veterans return from warzones mentally scarred, and if even a small fraction of them feel ignored or betrayed, they could act out violently — just like Matthew did.
