The Strength of the Nation
The Strength of the Nation is an excerpt from another manuscript, The Angel of the Lord, which will be published soon. Therefore, how do we make our nation great and strong? We do this by entering the same mindset of the prophets of old because the brilliance of discovery and the wisdom, knowledge, and understanding are not our own but of the spiritual power above. Yes, indeed! We need to make America great and strong not only for our own sake but also for the sake of all the nations on Earth. And we need to see ourselves as the beacon of hope for humanity as the founders of this great nation did. From the events of September 11, 2001, we have learned that our international problems cannot be solved exclusively by diplomacy or military interventions. Instead, the major solutions are to be found in the Religious arena. Then we discover that, by closing our Mexican border with a great wall, we offer a safe environment for the Jewish and Arab populations to go back to their root, Abraham, and reconcile after thousands of years of conflict and strife. And the Jewish people in Israel will take it from here, for they will repent for having killed their King, Jesus Yeshua, and prepare for the Second Coming while assembling the Kingdom of the Lord.

Assessment:

Plot/Idea: Plancher writes with fervor, but her concepts are somewhat jumbled and ambiguous. The central theme becomes unclear early in the text, and supporting sections are challenging to identify.

Prose: Plancher’s prose is clunky, with several instances of stilted conversation and awkward transitions. Her relaxed style is incompatible with the text’s more elevated concepts.

Originality: The Strength of the Nation boasts a novel theme with unusual delivery, and Plancher’s methods of exploring her main ideas lend the work an atypical flair.

Character Development/Execution: Plancher gets bogged down in her narrative and loses sight of the work’s main goals. Readers may find it difficult to distinguish actionable steps from speculation, and the author's leading premise quickly gets lost.
