Regarding Justified Violence vs. Unjustified Violence

2010-07-13T21:10:00.000-07:00

The following is my Comment/Response to this article by Metin Basoglu, which appears in Issue number 2768 of The New Scientist Magazine, dated July 13, 2010:

http://www.newscientist.com/article/mg20727684.700-you-cant-fight-violence-with-violence.html

Allow me to clarify and qualify myself by stating the following; my purpose is not served by jumping into one extreme or the opposite, but by serving the cause of truth, to which I subscribe, and also serving the cause of peace, which are not mutually exclusive! In other words; most people tend to inadvertently over-complicate things by taking things to easy in an effort to simplify and thus they tend to join one irrational and illogical camp against the other! I seek to avoid such extremes; as my interests lie in a world that is relatively moderate and reasonably safe, secure and sensible! In almost all wars the initial perpetrators of unjustified violence can be found on both sides, albeit more so on one side than the other!

I do not agree with much of what Metin states in this article. This article over-simplifies things and makes it seem like there is a moral and ethical equivalence between those fanatic pseudo-religious extremists who initiate unjustified violence with those who are forced by circumstance to prevent greater violence and danger by justified violent self-defense.
No doubt about it: the Nazis began by fabricating Big Lies about who caused Germany to suffer following their defeat in World War One and they were the ones who started the fire by murdering innocent people! No doubt the excessive punishment was a major factor, but unlike the German Communists, Socialists and Social Democrats the Nazis deliberately omitted crucial facts about how and why World War One began and distorted reality so as to generate greater hatred, anger and fear, mostly directed at easy targets, vulnerable scapegoats and other innocent groups. While it is true that the Bush Administration managed to make things even worse and its overall domestic and foreign policies actually weakened our ability to fight the enemy and prevent further harm to our democracies; there should be no doubt about the fact that it was the enemy, pseudo-Islamic fanatic extremists who hijacked and distorted Islam, who started the fire! While there are some significant differences between the Nazis and the sick pseudo-Islamic violencesors; there are also common factors, including the use of anti-Jewish anti-Semitic lies and fabrications and forgeries. Violence begins with deliberate defamation of the prospective enemy. Sure; some acts of defamation have been perpetrated by those who over-react to the malicious acts of the other side, but the fact remains that one side is more to blame than the other. Of course, pending on which side you already happen to have been born to, the determination of which side is most to blame may seem itself a rather subjective thing.
Nevertheless; the reality is clear: the majority of the victims are not the minority on both sides who perpetuate malicious ideas and acts!
We cannot afford to be weak in the face of the sick violencesors who brainwash susceptible fools and who are themselves self-justifying fanatics! To cave-in to the pseudo-Islamic and pseudo-Christian and pseudo-Jewish, etc., violencesors would lead to the same result that efforts at appeasing Hitler and his Nazis lead to! And that is something we can never allow to happen! Justified Violence used against those who perpetrated Unjustified Violence cannot, in of itself, achieve the long-term goals desired, and thus Justified Violence (i.e. our forces fighting the Taliban and al-Qaeda in Afghanistan) must also be accompanied by non-violent efforts that work to empower people in constructive, progressive and meaningful ways!

Ultimately we must, sooner than later, create a truly Ethical Global Society based on the most Sensible Principles; such as upholding Individual Human Rights, Liberties and Freedoms! Otherwise increasing confusion, paranoia, corruption and crime will lead to total chaos and a final collapse!

Israel and The Palestinians: Setting The RECORD Straight For The Umpteenth Time!

2010-06-07T04:29:00.000-07:00

The following is a comment made by one Joss Lloyd at The Liberal Democrats facebook site's most recent statement on the Gaza Aid Flotilla incident:
(Words of Joss Lloyd): "All you Pro Israeli activists on here seem to have no desire to try and see things from the palestinians point of view. The fact is, Muslims had been living in the Holy Land for over 2000 years, and then suddenly Britain and America start supporting another group of people, (who happen to be jewish) , with weapons and tanks, to invade their country, palestine. burning arab settlements, killing and raping the moslems, and eventually forcing all who survived into a tiny strip of land on the coast and THEN stopping any kind of humanintarian aid getting in. And you wonder why the palestinians hate the Americans, and are not too keen on the Israelis either. If I was a palestinian, i would probably want to blow up something american."

TO WHICH I WROTE: @Joss Lloyd "Muslims have been living in the Holy Land for over 2000 years" ????? Why do people make comments on important issues they OBVIOUSLY know NOTHING about! Islam came into existence (The Prophet Muhammad) almost 600 years AFTER Christianity! It began in the Arab Peninsula, out of Medina/Mecca, at which time the lands called Canaan and Philistia (what was and is Israel and Judea/Samaria) were mostly inhabited by non-Arabs! In fact; until the Islamic Conquest it was the Romans who had DISPLACED, MASSACRED, ENSLAVED the Jews of Canaan/Israel/Judea/Samaria, had brutalized them and forced them into exile! Those Jews were part-Sumerian who became part-Canaanite and part-Egyptian (all Semitic peoples). Before the arrival of Abraham and his fellow tribes-folk the Canaanites were the inhabitants..they were not ARABS! And IN FACT it was the Canaanites who had MASSACRED virtually all of the Philistini! The REAL, ORIGINAL Palestinians! The Philistini were a coastal people whose origins seem to be similar to the Cretans and Phoenicians. The noun Palestinian comes from Philistini; and the current people of Gaza and the West Bank are actually just as much a mish-mash mix of Arab, Egyptian, Greek, Syrian and other peoples! During the Crusades Muslims and Jews were massacred by so-called Christians! While average Muslims tended to be friendly towards their Jewish minority neighbours; their leaders treated that minority of local (original) Jews and Christians as second-class citizens, often subject to greater burdens in the form of penalty taxes (for not converting to Islam), and as scape-goats during hard times! The Jews historic presence in Canaan and Philistia goes back over 3000 years..twice as long as that of Muslims! And 1/3 longer than Christians! Your analogy is incorrect! Suppose the Native American Indians had mostly been massacred and forced into exile throughout the world and had, during that time, inter-married with all the other peoples of Earth and then decided to return to the last place where they had lived for the longest time as a mostly-sovereign people? How was Great Britain and The United States (as well as the rest of the UN Security Council) wrong in seeking to return the Jewish people to their historic lands?? About 1.5 Billion people, roughly 1/5 of the World's total population, are Muslims! Of which around 320 Million are Middle-Eastern and North-African Arab Muslims! The total land-mass that the Arab Muslims inhabit and politically control is hundreds of times that of Israel! If the Jewish peoples were to get a FAIR share of land in the region...as divided by population...then they should get almost twice the land that they have now! But all Jews in Israel seek is a place to live relatively free and safe from anti-Semitic hatred that still plagues much of the rest of the world!

Here is a web-site that shows the Physical Land-Dispute REALITY even though I do not agree with the specific language and attitude of those who made it:

http://www.masada2000.org/geography.html

MIND YOU: while I very much disagree with some of the specific wordingm the anti-Arab rhetoric (the level of hostility towards Israel fluctuates and is sometimes less than what the mass media makes it appear) and attitude (while the “Palestinians” are actually more Arab than not and are not the ancient Philistini people massacred by the pre-Jewish Canaanites; they too are as much victims of this horrific on-going tragedy as most Israelis and Jews are) of the pro-Israel group that created the above comparative web-site the statistics they provide are very accurate and those statistics very clearly show how totally UNFAIR the World is in mis-representing the Israelis as the expansionists and occupiers! Sure: the current government of Israel is not conducive enough towards reaching a peaceful settlement, but nor is the Palestinian leadership. Roughly 60% of people on both sides want PEACE yesterday! But the world’s profiteers like to profit off the conflict; as it forces all players to arm themselves to the teeth!

TIME TO STOP THE LIES, THE HATE and THE INJUSTICE! TIME FOR A TWO-STATES PEACE AGREEMENT! ENOUGH OF HAMAS, ANTI-SEMITIC HYPOCRITES and REACTIONARY ISRAELI ULTRA-NATIONALISTS! THE MAJORITY OF ISRAELI JEWS and PALESTINIAN MUSLIMS WANT PEACE IMMEDIATLY!

===

ADDENDUM: As for Joss Lloyd's sick anti-Americanism: Joss also needs to be taught a little USA History too! As much as I love the best of English high culture I detest blatant anti-Americanism, especially given King George's brutality! Down with King George Hooray for King Charles The Second!

Mark Kostabi and "CON ARTIST" : The Quest for Love In The Age of Confusion.

2010-05-29T02:48:00.000-07:00

The reason why Mark Kostabi DID what he DID in the 1980s is quite evident when one takes into consideration what has really been going on in the world of Modern Art Collectorship! I will not elaborate on WHAT has been going on, because anyone with any real intelligence can figure that out for themselves, but what matters is that Mark Kostabi VIOLATED most of the RULES and UPSET most of those who SET-UP the RULES or who RE-ENFORCED them! Early on Mark realized that REAL ARTISTIC TALENT did not really matter as much as other things which had less to do with REAL ART and more to do with the BUSINESS of SELLING (and re-selling) so-called REAL ART and selling Art In General! Mark Kostabi began his FACTORY, inspired by Warhol and stimulated by Basquiat (all three people I have met/known), hoping to cause a MAJOR RIFT in the world of Modern Art Collectorship and hoping to DEPOSE the BIG BUSINESS 'ART' DEALERS! Anyone who cautiously reads his early interviews, and especially his Self-Interview in his book "Sadness Because The Video Rental Store Was Closed" can clearly see what his real motive is! You just have to READ BETWEEN THE LINES! Kostabi had discovered Picasso's and Warhol's not-entirely-secret AGENDA! And Kostabi sought to become the one who would deliver what Picasso and Warhol had ultimately failed to achieve! The AGENDA! What is IT? Well; one might say it is what Dali and Basquiat would have ultimately wanted! Hint: use your IMAGINE-ation, as John Lennon would say! Unfortunately; Kostabi has also failed to do what he set out, and because he realizes he is running out of time he figured he might as well GO FOR BROKE and do WHATEVER IT MIGHT TAKE to regain momentum! Is "CON ARTIST" the answer? Will Kostabi manage to achieve what Picasso and Warhol could not? A look at the Condition of The World in general should make it clear that the ODDS are OVERWHELMINGLY against success!

Is this to say that there is NO REAL HOPE? No. There is HOPE, but chances are there is a group of Extra-Terrestrials who adore Kostabi's "slick" Kostabinoids (the vague, androgynous humanoid forms that are basis of his style of paintings), and it is more likely that it will be THEIR ARRIVAL that will achieve what Kostabi has been seeking to achieve!

In the meantime; we must continue to remember the past as if versions of it could happen in the present. As Santayana might have put it: "Those Who Forget The Mistakes of The Past Are Condemned to Repeat Them" - J.P. Fenyo, Philosopher. What George Santayana actually wrote ( in his "The Life of Reason" ) was: "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." My Free Advice to Mark Kostabi is this: Remember this; those who really had a significant and relatively positive impact on Human History, whose impact furthered Progress Towards a Truly Enlightened and More Peaceful World were people who had no qualms about sharing their stage with others and actually making that stage a Mutually Beneficial Collaborative Effort! So: How about it Mark? Are you willing to let me too benefit from your fame and fortune?? Or will you IGNORE my Free Advice and treat me the way people 'higher up" have treated you? Or as Lao Tzu said to Confucius: You Know That I Know That You Know That I Know That You Know....etc....

Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher & The Original New York City Free Advice Man (written-up in The New Yorker, Aug. 17, 1987).

About "CON ARTIST": "CON ARTIST" is the World's Greatest documentary ever made (and the only one so far) about The World's Greatest Pseudo-Con-Artist Artist, Musician and Game-Show-Host Mark Kostabi who rose to major fame in the mid-80s New York Avant-Garde Modern Art Scene. The movie, superbly Directed and Produced by Michael Sladek, is a viscously self-referencing movie about a viscously self-referencing artist-turned-real-life-Don-Quixote who is on a mission to attack the windmills of viscously self-referencing artists, dealers and critics in a viscously self-referencing world full of viscously self-referencing mediocre-minded wannabes! All in all; it's a smashingly entertaining, inadvertently funny and even shockingly brutally sharp psychological expose of raw emotion and contrived self-reflection on the part of a highly creative and brilliant Philosopher of Art masquerading as a lover of money! You will be glued to your seat and pee in your under-alls and if you are really, really lucky the movie-theatre usher will blame you and not the movie! So be sure to wear Pampers filled with plenty of 500 Euro bills to help absorb the mushy-ness, if not the shock! Truly a shockingly honest self-promoting self-confession of a blatantly straightforward artistic contortionist! - Review by Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo.

HOW DEMOCRACY IS BEING MURDERED BY THE CHILDREN OF NAZIS!

2010-05-27T03:59:00.000-07:00

Foreword

Anti-social plutocratic racist elitist systems of Fascism and Nazism have existed under different names and variations throughout much of human history. For example the Spartans were the Fascists, and also to some extent the Nazis, of their times, just as the Athenians were the anti-Fascists, to some extent, of those times. There are many other examples, and there are systems that fall somewhere in-between or which have elements of both opposites! In other words: Fascism and Nazism have their roots in earlier forms of similarly horrific systems of governance.

By their very definition Fascism and Nazism have as their general goal the destruction of Liberal Democracy and Progressive Humanism, in effect the destruction of pro-social systems of governance that have at their core Individual Human Rights, Liberties and Freedoms.

History of The Conspiracy

There is more than sufficient evidence that proves that from 1935 onwards Hitler’s Nazi elite began to infiltrate vulnerable governments throughout Europe and elsewhere in the world. They even used significant sums of money to corrupt officials throughout South and Central America, and in parts of Africa and Asia.

Before the very end of World War Two Hitler and the Nazi Party elite, realizing they had lost the ‘conventional’ war, must have made plans, in connection to earlier contingency plans, to have enough of their number escape to remote areas of the world, mostly in South America, where they would be able to regroup, combine their resources (including billions of dollars worth in stolen loot), finalize their alternative plan for world domination and begin to pursue those plans to destroy Liberal Democracies!

In the final months, weeks and days of World War Two, with help from the most Reactionary anti-Semitic elements within the Vatican and with the help of Reactionary Militarists in North America and elsewhere, hundreds of elite SS officers and Nazi Party officials, possibly including Hitler himself, managed to escape to South and Central America, to places like Bariloche, Argentina and Nuevo Germania, Paraguay, where they had already built elaborate Germanic communities and mini-fiefdoms! Many arrived by U-boats or by ship and trains, and with the help of South American Nazis like Juan Peron they were able to begin to regroup and plan ahead. Even the occasional arrest of high-profile Nazi war criminals would not deter them; and there is reason to think that they actually sacrificed some of the most prominent of their own to Nazi-hunters, as part of an overall campaign of creating the false impression that few important Nazis had escaped and fewer still would be able to avoid being captured by the Allies and Israel.

Given that the Fascists and Nazis could not win by so-called conventional war it was only logical that they realized that they would have to implement a much more elaborate plan; one that would take decades, great patience and very cautious, subtle and clever moves.

The Conspiracy

Their plan would take advantage of existing political realities, entities, groups and conflicts; including socio-economic class warfare and related social divisions, as well as the tendency of most people, even at the more educated levels of society, to dismiss anyone who might stumble upon their conspiracy to undermine Democracy as crackpot paranoiacs. They understood how by simply putting money into the hands of certain violent extremist groups and certain less violent but equally divisive groups they would be able to weaken social cohesion and create distrust, tension and greater conflict within otherwise relatively democratic societies. Most of those groups would never really know or be able to discover the ultimate actual source of their funds and would readily assume that they were coming from vast numbers of racists, anti-Semites, xenophobes, ultra-nationalists and/or religious fanatics who otherwise tend to lie low and blend into the mainstream of society! Furthermore; they understood very well how to set groups against one another and how to take advantage of organized criminal groups and their internecine wars for turf and power-control. They also knew how to use narcotics to further complicate life and create even more dangerous social divisions that would lead to even more anti-Democratic methods of governance and law-enforcement; not to mention how they would also be able to corrupt law enforcement and government officials and authorities. Most importantly they understood how they would be able to help position key individuals, whose reactionary extreme-Capitalist right-wing political tendencies mirrored their own, into the many already existing secret societies and elite clubs.

Most of their plan did (and still does) not involve direct infiltration at all, but simply helping insure that just enough key positions are occupied by people they can either control and use to gain further information on other key people in society or people whose political tendencies and behavior help create further strife and derision in society. They also would and have made sure that they would deliberately strengthen the kind of typical wishy-washy groups and people who would be highly ineffective in dealing with all the new social ills and related conflicts that would arise. Furthermore; they would also deliberately insure that not only would they indirectly control the Commercial Mass Media, by cleverly helping position those who would not be smart enough to connect the dots but they also helped set up their own Conspiracy Theorists both to discredit any serious logical Conspiracy Theorists and in order to gather further information on those naive people who fall for it! By gradually gaining more and more control over the public opinion manufacturers and the supposed opposition to the mass media they would help silence anyone and any group of people who might begin to connect the dots and see a pattern! To understand just how elaborate, cautious and clever the Remnant Nazis were and their offspring are in executing their grand conspiracy one must realize that groups of people with extreme hate and anger are the most motivated to devising ever-more-clever ways to harm their enemies, to undermine the fabric of those types of societies that they oppose and to create greater confusion.

On a broader level they understood how to undermine moves towards peaceful settlement of those key international and national conflicts that if resolved would actually strengthen Democracy and Human Rights and Individual Liberties and Freedoms. It is most likely that this is what has been going on in relation to efforts to reach a peaceful settlement between Israel and the Arab World. After all; there is more than ample evidence that the Nazi Third Reich had as one of its top foreign policy priorities taking advantage of historic conflict between Muslims and non-Muslims, especially Jews. That is why they made sure not to show any outright indications of their racial supremacist views towards Arabs! The Third Reich intended to liquidate the Jews, primarily because of the fact that educated Jews tended to be the strongest advocates of Democracy, Human Rights, Individual Liberties and Freedoms! In the eyes of the Nazis the Jews were the intellectual force behind Humanism and Democratic governance (which is true and good). Note: my use of the term “Aryan” in the next few sentences is not meant to reflect the actual Aryan peoples, as found in Northern India, Central Asia, the Caucasus and Persia, but the so-called “Aryan” races, including Germanic, Celtic and Viking races, as defined by Hitler and his Nazi elites. ….. But for all non-Aryan non-Germanic peoples who were not Jewish, Gypsy or “Queer” ( I use this as someone who is also of LGBT identity ) the Nazis intended to create various levels of enslavement and various tiers of social castes! The darker Arabs and semi-African Arabs would be enslaved, while the lighter-complexioned Arabs and semi-Aryan Arabs would be second-class allies of the Supreme Race! Had the Arabs known this then, and were they to understand this today, then the Arab world would have actually already sought to create unity-in-diversity with Jews and other non-Aryan peoples! Their agenda has not changed, even though their tactics have changed.

There can be no doubt that they made it a priority to both indirectly (via useful proxies) infiltrate Israel and the USA, the country with the most number of Jews in the world, and to promote the most reactionary groups, including self-hating Jews and ultra-nationalist reactionary pseudo-Jews and extremist hate groups, such that they would be able to eventually devastate the lives of those Jews who would become activists against racism and anti-Democratic authoritarian regimes. It is no wonder that the minority of highly educated Jews who sense that there is something very wrong, very sinister and alien, in the behavior of most of those Jews who wield power in Israel are easily dismissed as kooks and as self-hating Jews and threats to the national interests of Israel! Of course, the Remnant Nazi plan included (includes) efforts to indirectly promote the voices of those harshest of critics who truly are self-hating Jews in order to more easily help discredit the voices of those true progressive Jews who are actually not self-hating and who support an Israel that is true to the philosophy of the moderates of times past. The conspiracy benefits greatly from the fact that the only loud voices of dissent being indirectly promoted by the Remnant Nazis and their offspring are coming from confused (i.e. misinformed, defense-naive) but otherwise highly educated Jews like Norman Finkelstein, Noam Chomsky and Gerald Kaufman (not to mention the late chess champion Bobby Fischer). In a sense it could be said that the basic motto of the Remnant Nazis and their offspring might be: “Find clever ways to promote those who themselves use half-truths and are masters of the Big Lie!”. And the aforementioned explains why the moment a relative obscure person, Jewish or sympathetic to those who have suffered the egregious injustices of anti-Semitism, begins to raise alarm bells they will be easily dismissed and lumped with the likes of Chomsky and Finkelstein.

Exploiting the Cold War was also a boon to their conspiracy’s long-term goals, as they could use the West’s natural fear of Communism and Stalinism to help position reactionaries who would be sympathetic to their interests, should the time come to totally take over control of governments!

Nor were/are they averse to forming indirect alliances of mutual interest, via less obvious proxies, with elite plutocrats and organizations in Asia, including China, Hong Kong, India, Japan and the Koreas, as the conspiracy would have to be able to strengthen global players who may tend towards anti-Democratic Corporatist or State-controlled fascism. Obviously the very purpose of The European Union was to prevent a repeat of the root economic causes of the inter-European division and strife that already caused both World Wars; thus the Remnant Nazis and their offspring have made it a top priority to do everything possible to strengthen those nations who benefit most from a weakened European Union! Insuring the failure of The European Union is a significant part of their plan to undermine Democracy and Individual Human Rights, Liberties and Freedoms! Basically there is a two-prong strategy: indirectly help strengthen the most divisive or ineffective political forces within Europe and help strengthen the hand of those anti-Democratic states and Mega-Corporations that do not want a strongly competitive European Union able to become the wealthiest federation on Earth!

They also knew that they would have a relatively easy time infiltrating top government security and intelligence agencies throughout the world; simply by means of gathering vast amounts of information on the private lives of agents, blackmailing them and by offering financial incentives, as well as identifying those who would tend to have sympathy towards their ideology! But they would have to use proxies, in effect people who would share their goals but not control the purse strings or be able to link to them directly. The last thing they would want was to leave trails that would lead back to them.
And while some of the world’s top agencies have also come to understand that this has been happening; it is almost impossible to find direct links in order to be able to locate the actual inner-core of the Remnant Nazi Conspiracy!

With the advent of Television, Computers, Modern Commercialist Mass Media methods of Public Opinion and Behavior Manipulation, the Internet, Internet-based Background Security Check companies, Mobile Phones and all other related technologies, the brainwashed children and grandchildren of those re-organized Remnant Nazis are getting much, much closer to totally undermining and destroying all vestiges of true Democracy and Liberal society! There is no doubt that they could foresee the general trends already beginning in the late 40s and 50s. Dystopia novels were eagerly sought by these Remnant Nazis and their offspring. Philip K. Dick himself, author of various important Sci-Fi Dystopia stories, claims to have been approached by actual Nazis!

Today practically all of the less famous and relatively unknown intellectuals, especially those who would be at the forefront of helping prevent further degradation and erosion of Democracy and Liberal pro-social pro-individual-rights, are being cleverly disenfranchised, rendered poor and even destroyed by means of the incredibly clever and useful and almost-impossible-to-prove methods that are made possible by means of the Internet, Computerized Databanks, Information Storage and Retrieval systems. And the ability of the offspring of the Nazis, i.e. Remnant Nazis, to manipulate, endanger and even destroy the lives of any who might be able to expose their Giant Conspiracy is further helped by their ability to almost constantly and instantaneously monitor and undermine the lives, health and prospects of those who they manage to identify as being sufficiently ethical and intelligent enough to pose a threat to their long-term goal.

With the ability of the narco-traffickers and pseudo-religious terrorists to pose dire threats to the general safety and stability of society as a whole it is much easier for governments to further inadvertently provide these Remnant Nazis, who eventually will be (unless we wake up and stop them) in a position to take outright total control, the very technological means to control society and destroy or enslave all opposition like never before! What makes an already dangerous and bad situation worse is that there are already too many incidents of barbarism, brutality, severely unethical excessive use and abuse of the powers of authority, that are causing the general public to lose their ability to trust and have any confidence in what they assume are democratically elected officials; where-in-fact the elite rich and upper-class element of organized criminality are able to overwhelmingly manipulate public opinion and the behavior of most voters by the clever devices of fear-mongering, distortion of facts, and exaggeration of threats. In a sense Democracy barely exists today, and unless it is totally revived by the combined efforts of ethical activists then it will only be a matter of time that an economic collapse will leave plenty of opportunity for the Remnant Nazi Conspiracy to succeed! That said; if the world’s economy were to collapse then the chaos that would ensue would more likely escalate to Armageddon within weeks and then not even the Remnant Nazis will get the results they seek.

Because of this horrific and increasing ability of Remnant Nazis and their offspring to undermine and destroy Democracy, and to cleverly wipe out all ethical voices of dissent, the future of all human civilization is at risk! We must not forget that in reality there is no actual difference between jet-set-level organized criminals and Fascists/Nazis! And there is plenty of evidence of a direct connection between the narco-traffickers and terrorists and those two and Fascists/Nazis!

The only realistic hope humanity has is if enough of the elite rich are able to see that there really is no way to continue the façade of democracy, and that unless real democracy and human freedom is secured and maintained the danger of the collapse of democratic governments and a final mega-conflict is very high! Half-measures and fake changes will not work. The only really effective antidote to fascism is Ethical Governance that truly promotes, protects and insures Individual Human Rights, Liberties and Freedom, and which is sophisticated enough to create the right kind of oversight bodies and to insure the social security of alternative thinkers and self-educated intellectual geniuses (given that institutions of higher learning have been infiltrated a long time ago). But in order for government to govern ethically the masses need to be sufficiently educated about the vital importance of ethics and the need to understand the principle of mass-phenomena-effect or cumulative effect of public mass behavior. A society run mostly by technocrats and plutocrats is one that will become a Plutocratic Idiocracy in which violent chaos and social disorder overwhelms ethical law and order!
The Remnant Nazi Conspiracy cannot continue if the masses are sufficiently educated, informed and aware of the dangers. Unity-in-Diversity and Tolerance of Tolerant Others cannot continue to be compromised if there is to be true Democracy and without true Democracy there is no real freedom or liberty for anyone!

About The Roman Polanski Controversy

2009-10-01T07:15:00.000-07:00

Before you read this letter which I wrote to someone concerned about the apparent crime allegedly perpetrated in 197- by Roman Polanski allow me to qualify myself:

I find the mere idea that someone who is legally an adult would ever harm a minor (or another adult for that matter) abhorrent! It is totally unacceptable and inexcusable, albeit sometimes easily explainable, that anyone would go against the rights of another human being. The horrors of child abuse, of power-crimes against vulnerable children and minors in general, crimes which not only harm their actual direct victims but which endangers and harms society in general, crimes which destroy young people's willingness to even trust otherwise benevolent adults, need to be properly dealt with by all of responsibly liberal and progressive society! There is nothing normal, right and acceptable about those who harm others. The same goes for all crimes involving forced physical intimacy. Minors cannot make the right decisions and adults have no business being physically intimate with minors of any age! The law, however imperfect, is well intended when it comes to age-related protections. What minors going through puberty do with other minors goind through puberty is another issue entirely! Nor should these crimes be used as an excuse to commit another crime by conservatives trying to stop truly consentual intimacy between mature adults. GLBT RIGHTS ALL THE WAY! And the general public misperception about GLBT persons...that they may be more prone than so-called 'straight' people to harm minors...is also absolutely wrong and used to perpetrate hate crimes against responsible adults! Regardless of one's social identity, GLBT or Straight, Traditional or Kinky, the percentage of people who abuse people, who harm minors and society, is roughly the same!!!

Dear (name confidential),

.....

As for Polanski; I would not be concerned if he was facing Her Majesty's courts here in the UK, but the US system is not what you think it is (even though Pres. Obama and V.P. Biden are also hoping to reform and improve it). If you are opposed to all forms of unethical torture, physical and psychological, then I doubt you would wish that unto anyone whose specific sick (and though explainable, not excusable) behaviour was in great measure the result of the unusual series of horrors Polanski went through. Being a child in a Holocaust Concentration Camp, your mother brutally murdered before your own eyes, and then within thirty years having your wife brutally murdered by Manson's fellow Psychopaths! His victim must have her rights respected. She seems to want it out of her mind and this may actually haunt her more than help her exact her right to just revenge. I think this case is very complex indeed. Nevertheless; I am not stating this because of any bias over his creative talents and accomplishments. If I were the Judge I would order him to make a realistic movie about the horrors young and vulnerable people suffer from monsters and from sick people. Yes; there is a distinction between those whose inhumanity is a monstrosity and those who suffered temporary insanity or chronic severe mental illness. This is about the principle: torturing people, no matter what, does nothing to further the cause of justice and makes us a dangerous lot if we do allow torture! I prefer the Norwegian Justice System. The US currently, even with Obama, still has what is really mostly truly a CRIMINAL Justice System! Neither victims nor culprits get justice! Mostly lawyers benefit.

I think your general anger and sentiment is justified, and Polanski should not get preferential treatment on account of his celebrity status. And I think he should be held accountable in a European court. But if it really does further haunt and harm Samantha (n. Gailey ) Geimer then we should take her feelings more into consideration. If she wants to have him forced to face his guilt (if he really has lied about his side of the story...he claims it was consentual...I tend to doubt him on this) then let him be exposed in European courts...not in the US.

In general I tend to stand by the side of the actual victims of crimes and not on the side of those who perpetrate them...even if there is evidence of a horrific childhood...but the ultimate criminals in this case are the Nazis, Fascists in general and Society at Large for being so intolerant of normal GLBT identity and normal mature consentual intimacy!!! If society would encourage sxual freedom between mature adults then I think these atrocities against children and minors would be less likely! There is a link!

Respectfully, best,

JP

As for what I advise the world to do: put these sick people (I'm not talking about an incidental case involving someone who is not proven to be a serial threat) in closed adults-only communities where only other adults live and where loving, consentual, respectful adult-to-adult intimacy is actually encouraged! And when someone seems 'cured' they should have special adults-only villages, away from mainstream society, where they can live and work. If they want to visit regular villages, cities and other places then they should be escorted by overseers who can insure they don't harm anyone!

So, what's going on in your corner of the World?
Tried to chat with you via facebook...
As you know we're in London now...after several very difficult years in the US.
Though I seriously helped get the Obama-Biden Ticket elected, and the world may be safer as a result....though some things are troublesome and worrying about the way in which the MIC is behaving (first they ask these two fine gentlemen to save them, to reform the MIC (make it less lethal and more constructive) and the rest of the World from their extreme excesses under Shrub and Neo-Company: then they try pulling some fast ones here and there...like the vaccine and what not...hey, you don't have to be a Paleo-Con or Neo-Con or other Nazi-like creep to see that something ain't right about what's going on...)....so...as I was saying...though I seriously helped get these guys elected my own safety and welfare was in grave danger in the US.
London is a great place to live, but at a hefty price... The rents are disproportionately high, especially at a time like this....what with a near-collapse of the global economy....who would have thought that the London Banking and Financial Industries sector would be so full of IDIOTS! Even I, with all my visionary abilities and Future-Seeing could not manage to foresee that the one place one would have thought would be financially safest would end up being in such a mess! Then again; London's overall longterm prospects....provided the World economy does manage to stand up tall again (reformed and re-tuned)...are better than most other City States. Problem may yet be; to what degree do the Tories (so-called Conservative Party) win next year's elections... If they get too much power then all bets are off.... But I sense that they will just barely get in with a narrow majority, and the rise of the Xenophobic UKIP and racist BNP will probably, eventually, re-activate and energize the silent Progressive majority...or so we must hope... The European Union surely cannot continue as it is; heading into chaos under the weight of all the Euroskeptic and anti-EU Right-wing extremists and ultra-Nationalists... Something is bound to give and break the current deadlock... We all know that WW3 could easily begin in Europe once more! Even with all the cross-Chengen (hard to use the term 'ross-border') property ownership and inter-European business interests; unless the EU does become what it was really meant to be...more united and more respectful of individuals and their rights...there is a serious danger that major conflicts may yet break out and cause the whole shebang to self-destruct, sending down the whole world with it! In a sense; we're either going to see some really positive changes worldwide or the beginning of the end as Russia, China and India vie for power against the currently much-too-weak Euro-Atlantic-American Alliance... And the biggest source of danger comes from within! Public confidence in Official Authorities is waning BIG TIME (most of the rich and their peons are to blame for all that), and the lack of Ethics at all levels of society, excess Corruption and the ability of organized thugs to excessively infiltrate and exploit the whole mess is causing the level of intra-social paranoia to rise way too high! So...we're either going to see some very positive changes in Europe (I include Australia and New Zealand here) and America (excluding Mexico) or the CRAP IS GOING TO HIT THE FAN SO BAD THAT..that we'll not know what hit us all until its too late!
Perhaps the actual discovery of evidence of truly intelligent life beyond our Solar stellar system would be what is needed to pull humanity together again! And, as I have been arguing for ages; chances are very good that we will discover THEM within our lifetime! Even if we may only get to SEE their presence WAY OUT THERE it will be enough to cause enough change on this endangered Pearl of a Planet of OURS! I think this OBSERVATION will take place within the next two years! PREPARE YOURSELF! A little initial chaos and incredulity will sweep over the World, but shorlty thereafter TRADITIONAL RELIGION and EXTREMISM will PLUMETT! Long Live The Glorious Memory of His Royal Highness, His Majesty, King Charles the 2nd of England! (Do your own research into why he was so special!).
More another time!

The Man In The Mirror Is In Our Hearts and Minds

2009-07-08T10:36:00.001-07:00

Michael Jackson did not die on the 25th of June, 2009. Only his body died. He lives on in our memories in more ways than we will ever know! The man in the mirror has traversed space-time and is now in Neverland. Like a colorful caterpillar he has metamorphised into the Peter Pan he dreamed of becoming; he has gained the childhood freedom that was denied him in this world. And now it is for each one of us left behind to help stop and prevent all the horrible suffering that kills the spirit of innocence of so many children, and perpetuates the cycle of abuse all over again!

I do not write these words as a fan, because I am a fan of no one. Having met him once back in the early 80s I have a sense of the real Michael too few ever got to know; a truly loving, sensitive, gentle and caring but also lonely person who was often unsure who his real friends were, who he could trust and love. What is certain is this: some of his songs really managed to break barriers and transcend petit-mindedness, providing us a sense that our dreams, hopes and aspirations for humanity are validated.

And now that he is departed, let his own words speak louder than mine:

"I'm Starting With The Man In The Mirror
I'm Asking Him To Change His Ways
And No Message Could Have Been Any Clearer
If You Wanna Make The World A Better Place
Take A Look At Yourself, And Then Make A Change"
- Michael Jackson, 1958 - 2009
(from his Number-One Hit "Man In The Mirror", 1987)

Sorry we did not get to become close friends...we'd have been a formidable two!

Love, peace,

The Free Advice Man

Mr. John Hill Seems To Be A Dangerous Fool

2009-06-30T09:26:00.001-07:00

The Most Likely Truth About 7-7 and 9-11 and Their Conspiracy Theories

By Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher

First of all, allow me to qualify what I am about to state; I know enough about how government agencies, agents and officials operate to be able to state, without the slightest doubt, that almost all conspiracy theories about everything from The Kennedy Assassination to 9-11 are full of nonsense, illogical conclusions and even politically or ‘religiously’ motivated deliberate lies! Secondly; those who totally dismiss every detail of a conspiracy theory or who think all conspiracy theories are nonsense only help fuel interest and belief in otherwise absurd conspiracy theories, because the fact is that some conspiracies do exist, have happened in the past, and are likely to happen again, and most conspiracy theories contain certain elements of truth! But this article is not about conspiracy theories in general, but about conspiracy theories concerning the horrors of 9-11 and 7-7.

As you may have heard, a man by the name of John Hill is now facing serious criminal charges for having produced a YouTube video (and DVDs) that suggest that the events of 7-7 were not the sick, unjustifiable, cowardly and murderous acts of relatively young, brainwashed British Muslims, whose brainwashers have a sick, extreme and distorted interpretation of Islam, but that it was some sinister plot on the part of elements within the British government which conspired to launch a so-called ‘false flag’ operation, involving the murder of many innocent people, simply as a means to justify acts of war and elimination of civil liberties! Mr. John Hill is also convinced he alone is The Messiah (look, I’m a Jew, and I know a thing or two about any real Messiah would-be), even as he has a non-Jewish religious ideology and shows none of the wisdom and compassion for humanity that one might expect of a true Jewish King. But, of course, if I were to simply suggest that John Hill's wacky self-delusion about being The Messiah is reason enough to dismiss his extreme (and, as far as I am concerned, impossible and ludicrous) conspiracy theory then I too would only be doing more harm than good.

Generally speaking Mr.John Hill alleges, without providing any truly credible evidence, that the four men blamed for the bombings were in fact fall guys in a government plot to win support for the war on terror; they were tricked into traveling to London with rucksacks on that day. Furthermore, Hill alleges that the CCTV footage that shows the four men arriving in London was simply used to incriminate them, and that they were not on the trains that blew up, but were in fact murdered by police at Canary Wharf, after government agents set off pre-planted explosives to frame them.

Here are some simple reasons why John Hill’s conspiracy theory does not make sense:

1. The cost of keeping even a few people ‘quiet’ and willing to participate in what would be the actual murder of dozens of innocent people is very, very high, and every government agent knows that their own government has other agents and agencies watching them (if not constantly then randomly) and even able to test their loyalty and trustworthiness! In other words; the idea that a sinister element within the UK government would conspire to commit mass murder makes absolutely no sense when it would require being able to ‘trust’ enough officers and agents to go along with such an evil crime; a crime whose evidence, had it been committed, would not only be very, very expensive to hide, but whose evidence being released would cause extreme instability in all branches of government and would be too high a risk for any so-called ‘possible’ benefit! Of course, if you can find enough agents and officers who share an extreme ideological agenda then it would be possible, but in a relatively democratic and liberal society that is highly unlikely. So, just considering the cost of keeping people quiet and the extreme difficulty in organizing such a massive crime it is very, very unlikely to be the case!
2. The idea that there are no, or too few, British Muslims willing and able to have done such horrible crimes goes totally against all the existing evidence! Yes, most British Muslims are not willing to be brainwashed and are not willing to support the sick agenda of violent extremists, but there are a significant minority of mostly younger British Muslims, perhaps around 5% to 15% (this rough estimate is based on actual, recent opinion polling of British Muslim youths) who unequivocally state that they see nothing wrong with suicide bombers and suicide bombing as a supposed means to an end, that they agree with such terrorist tactics, and that they would be willing to sacrifice their lives as martyrs in what they misperceive as a so-called ‘legitimate’ defense of Islam and of Muslims! Now, you can also find a minority of youths in other ‘communities’, including those who would call themselves Christian, Jewish, Hindu, etc… who would also have no qualms about going to extremes in order to push their agenda. But the reality is, like it or not, that the vast majority of suicide terrorist attacks in the past 30 years, especially since the Ayatollahs overthrew the Shah of Iran and pursued their extreme agenda throughout the Islamic World, have been done by young brainwashed Muslims who are taught very false interpretations of The Koran and of Islam! For many naïve people, mostly of Christian background, in Europe and America, it is hard to face the truth and realize that such extreme hatred and willingness to violence can really exist! So, the point here is simple: why frame otherwise innocent British Muslim youths, when you can easily find enough of them to, provided they are given the means, actually commit these sick acts of senseless violence and cowardly murder?? The one counter-argument that Mr. Hill might make is this: ‘…well, because the goal was also to defame Islam and Muslims, and not just to create public support for a war agenda….’. That counter-argument, however plausible it may seem, is false! Any relatively intelligent citizen of the UK knows that there are just too many important economic ties with many nations in the Islamic World, and that risking the loss of their trust and cooperation is absolutely not worth any other agenda!! Also, the social disruptions and their impact on the British economy that would be caused by such a conspiracy being revealed as true, were it true at all, would have disastrous consequences for everyone in the UK! Take this and the previous point and you already can see just how insensible and practically impossible it would be to launch such a conspiracy!
3. Most of the foremost British government agents, security specialists, officials and officers are highly intelligent people…which has nothing to do with whether or not they can make silly (and sometimes costly) mistakes (goes without saying; all highly intelligent persons tend to be absent-minded on occasion)…and thus they all know and understand the overall harm to both UK and World stability and security that ‘false flag’ operations, i.e. supposedly ‘clever’ conspiracies, can all too easily cause, by causing a chain of events that not only would wreck the UK economy, but would risk such a chain of events that would force the world into a final cataclysmic showdown! The agenda of virtually all British government agencies, agents, operatives, officials and officers is to reduce the level of instability in the world and to maintain sufficient security!
4. If there has been any conspiracy with regards to what happened in London on July 7, 2005 then it is much more likely to have been orchestrated by either remnant Nazis who operate out of South American Nazi enclaves and who have infiltrated many governments and agencies or fanatic Iranian operatives! And they would only be able to abet, indirectly, those young men who were already willing, able, planning and preparing to do what THEY DID! In any case; the actual acts were done by those brainwashed youths, even if some sinister anti-British, anti-American, anti-European, anti-EU, anti-UN, anti-Liberal, anti-Democratic Fascists in some way managed to facilitate things for them!!! But Mr. John Hill does not have the intelligence to see that that kind of a conspiracy makes more sense than his more likely obvious effort to harm the UK government and the British public! Oh, but, he and others may yet argue; ‘what if it was the US government under Cheney, with the help of Israel, that did it?’ First of all, believe or not, Israel’s actual ruling elite and their government know that it would be a fatal mistake for them to in any way ever be involved in any such a conspiracy to set the rest of the world against the Islamic World! Israel may sometimes exploit, out of survival necessity only, the weaknesses their enemies and conflicts between their enemies, but Israel also understands that there is no substitute for a comprehensive, viable, lasting peace, which must ultimately also involve territorial compromise with the Palestinians and the establishment of a Palestinian State! Israel is a lot less negative and a lot more positive an entity than many in the world today tend to believe, but over-simplistic superficial observations based on both mass-media hype and actual occasional violations of IDF codes of conduct fuel all kinds of senseless garbage about Israel and its overall motives! Of course, there are extremists in Israel who do plenty of harm to their own countries interests, but overall the majority of Israelis are quite different than what organized anti-Semitic groups want the public to think! As for the US; sure, there might have been a few Remnant Nazis who have infiltrated agencies and done things that actually harm overall US interests, including the unlikely possibility that those sick youths were given indirect assistance! But you can be sure that the vast majority of US officials, agents and operatives are not one bit even like the political opportunists (such as Rumsfeld, Cheney and others during the previous administration) who almost entirely wrecked the US!

So, as far I am concerned 7-7 happened more or less as the UK government states it did, and there is no sensible reason to think otherwise!

As for 9-11; that was truly more of a case where the Bush administration was complicit in having a ‘bring it on’, ‘go ahead, hit us, and see what happens’ attitude! No doubt about it; plenty of actual evidence exists that shows that the top people in Bush’s administration understood that sick bin Laden and Company were about to do something really terrible, but they were itching for an excuse, a ‘Casus Belli’, to launch their series of almost endless wars and conflicts against both real terrorists and anyone else who might endanger their selfish interests and sick agenda! But even 9-11 was perpetrated by those brainwashed pseudo-Muslims and all those wacko conspiracy theories are mostly based on insensible, highly improbable and even impossible things. Sure, there may have been a rogue group that infiltrated a significant US government agency and managed to conspire to help make 9-11 the horror it was, but I have no doubt that even those Neo-Cons at the top of the Bush Administration were in the dark and could not have known what was really, really happening! 9-11 was probably the result of a very clever collusion of sinister forces, including bin Laden & Company (i.e. al Qaeda) and possibly a rogue group created and operated by actual Remnant Nazis trying to destroy all democracies on Earth!!! Thus, it is no wonder that there were many odd, suspicious and sinister details about what happened on 9-11 and in the months and years leading up to that! And no doubt there were even some things that happened concerning Tower 7 that were meant to give people the impression that the Neo-Cons were behind the whole shebang! As far as I can tell the Neo-Cons of the Bush administration were all too happy to exploit the horrors of 9-11, but they were not clever or intelligent enough to have pulled-off the whole thing by themselves, and given what has happened since it is more likely that they too were played-with and duped, even as they would still deny it! It was definitely not the vast majority of US agents and operatives, or the Israelis at all; because both the actual ability to do such a massive crime and the excessive risks involved preclude such a possibility and in fact make it impossible! No, 9-11 was perpetrated by bin Laden & Company, with or without the help of some sinister rogue Remnant-Nazi forces! Yes, there might have been some things done concerning Tower 7 that were done simply because the opportunity to do them arose that September morning, but not so with regards to the Twin Towers (1&2). Knowing all that I know about the real world of intelligence operatives and agents I can, without a doubt, assure you that neither 9-11 nor 7-7 were what the vast majority of Conspiracy Theorists out there claim they were. The world is full of opportunists, both those who are willing to conspire and those who inadvertently or intentionally exploit actual conspiracies in order to convince people of conspiracy theories that make no sense at all! Whether Mr. John Hill meant to cause harm or not; his insensible nonsense, his stupid conspiracy theory has done nothing to shed any light on the actual truth, but, instead, has caused serious harm to the actual peaceful interests of the British government and UK officials, by providing more fuel to a fire based on ignorance, extremism and false interpretations of Islam! In other words: this is not about the UK wanting to silence those whose conspiracy theories actually are based on real evidence, actual events, actual facts and sensible ideas; it is about a man named John Hill who thinks he’s real smart and knows what’s really going on behind the scenes when he doesn’t and who uses half-truths and insensible fabrications to concoct a dangerous set of lies that form an even bigger lie! 7-7 was done by brainwashed youths, who cowardly and unjustifiably murdered dozens of innocent people of all types, and whose agenda is based on a totally false interpretation of Islam; a religion, like most others, whose real essence is peaceful!

I am interested in your feedback.

Netanyahu’s Impossible “Peace” And My Free Advice on How to Make Peace Reality

By Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher

“We want to live with you in peace as good neighbors”, said Israel’s current Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu.

And by “good neighbors” it turns out he meant a Palestinian entity, something not quite a fully sovereign national state, that would not have the means to discourage and defend itself against an otherwise possible, unjustified invasion and occupation.

Apparently Bibi Netanyahu wants the rest of us Jews to believe that the Palestinian side, and for that matter the predominantly Muslim Arab side, would ever accept such a precondition! Who does he think he is kidding? You know Bibi; it’s bad enough if you think it is wise to try and fool the Arab World, but to do that to the Jewish World is deeply offensive. Sure, most of Israel, left and right, seems to want to believe in fairytales (or maybe not really), or at least believe in tactics meant to postpone the inevitable, because, let’s face it (sarcastically speaking): there is scant evidence that there are enough people on the Palestinian side who will be able to deliver on a full peace, based on full parity of national sovereignty. After all, Gaza was proof enough of just how unreliable and weak the Palestinian moderates are. Or was it??

Enough of the fancy word-play and rhetoric Mr. Netanyahu! The Gaza Strip is not The West Bank, and Mahmoud Abbas’s Fateh is not Hamas, nor is the Arab World today the same Arab World it was during the Bush years. Things have changed, and not just because there is a Democrat in The White House whose middle name is Hussein (the late King Hussein al-Hashemi was a good friend to Israel…and many Jews include the word ‘hussein’ in their daily prayers), but because The World, like it or not, has been made a far more dangerous place by the dangerously foolish policies of the previous U.S. administration, especially for us Jews!

I will now proceed to advise you, point by point, in the slightest hope that you or someone with influence over you will heed my advice:

1. Israel, without the slightest doubt, must be recognized, by the legitimate and recognized Palestinian leader(s), as a state, first and foremost, established for the sake and purpose of protecting the Jewish people from any serious risk of annihilation; thus Israel must be recognized as a Jewish-ruled state, but one in which all other Israeli citizens, be they Muslim, Christian, Buddhist, Hindu, Atheist or whatever (except for anti-Semites and Fascists), be they Arab or not, Semitic or not, are provided the same kind of human rights and dignity that one would expect of any nation-state that is at least semi-democratic! Ben Gurion's dream was just that kind of Israel. That is to say this; Israel should not expect to be accepted and recognized as a strictly Jewish State, but it should have a Constitution that provides a special set of protections to persons who are definitely Jewish (generally as determined by Orthodox Jewish Law) including specific protections that insure that Israel’s Jews forever have the ability and right to destroy any nation that would dare to attempt to commit genocide against the Jewish people! After all, this is really what we Jews want to be sure of! Even if there were only one real Jew remaining within the borders of the State of Israel, she or he should be guaranteed the ability and right to launch nuclear missiles at any nation who would dare to attempt to commit genocide on his or her fellow Jews! Seriously! And perhaps the day will come when there will be a sovereign Gypsy nation with the same ability, and they too will seek the ability and right to do the same. Seriously! Because, let’s face it, what happened to millions of Jews, Gypsies, Homosexuals and many others, including millions of decent Christians too, during World War Two, must NEVER, ever, happen AGAIN! On all other issues all other Israelis would have the same legal, human and democratic rights, such that any Palestinian Arab currently in exile, who would still want ‘their (supposed) right to return’, would have to fulfill certain reasonable things and meet certain sensible qualifications to be able to apply and receive full Israeli citizenship. Because, and in this sense the estimated majority of Israelis today who support Netanyahu’s concerns have a valid point, there is no way that Israel can afford to let most, let alone all, Palestinians who once lived in areas now inside the modern borders of Israel, and their descendants, simply return. There can be no doubt about it; Israel would seize to exist, seize to serve its most important purpose, if it were foolish enough to agree to a full right of return to all those Palestinians. It would be a compromise solution, whereby some Palestinians (we’re not talking about millions, but only about thousands), especially the elderly who were actually born in areas that now make up the modern borders of Israel, would get assistance in applying for citizenship. And, over time, when peace proves sustainable, Israel will make it easier for Palestinian relatives to visit their fellow Israeli Palestinian relatives for reasonably limited periods of time. Bibi; it’s that simple and that easy!
2. As part of the same fundamental purpose for the existence of the State of Israel, any Two State solution that allows for the formation of a modern sovereign Palestinian State must not be able to present a serious military or existential threat to Israel. But, as the wise old saying goes; “good fences make for good neighbors”! Thus Israel must somehow accept that a Palestinian State alongside its borders must have its own reasonable means of self-defense in order to feel safe and secure from the risk of any future Israeli government coming to power that might simply decide to end any previous agreement, perhaps using the excuse of a freak incident in which, say, some fringe minority terrorist group were able to launch a few missiles into Israel from Palestinian territory, that is to say as a casus belli , an excuse to invade and occupy territory. But the exact nature and type of such means of self-defense can be determined and agreed upon, such that the actual result does not effectively mean a fully ‘demilitarized’ Palestinian State, because, face it Bibi, the Palestinian leadership will never agree to sign a deal with Israel on the basis of having its right to self-defense denied. I seriously doubt that our side, we Jews and Israelis, would agree to such a ridiculous idea, were the shoe on the other foot! Good fences do tend to help make for good neighbors, and no sensible Palestinian leader would ever sign a peace agreement based on having to fully trust in the good will of its former enemy! We wouldn’t and they won’t. Mind you, we’re not talking about a Palestinian State that would be allowed to have the kind of weaponry (massive amounts of tanks, cannons, heavy artillery, missiles and planes, etc.) that any of the co-signers (USA, Russia, EU, etc.) would have to concede could easily present a serious offensive threat to Israel. That would be out of the question, just as would be any agreement that would deny Israel’s special right to keep its ability to maintain full defensive parity with the entire Arab World. The self-defense needs of Israel cannot be compared with those of any future Palestinian State, and Israel cannot forsake its nuclear deterrent and its ability to thwart any massive conventional military threat on the part of its future former enemies becoming enemies again. The History of the Arab-Israeli conflict and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict shows that Israel would need generations of peace in order to finally feel safe enough to consider full multilateral disarmament. In fact, chances are much greater that by that time the whole World might abandon nationalism and all forms of tribalism and inhumanity (ethnocentrism, racism, unjustified intolerance, ignorant behavior, violence, war, crime and corruption), and then, in all probability, the last nation on Earth to become a full part of a future One Diversely United World would be Israel! Not because we Jews are less willing to be part of such a One Diversely United World, but because we would probably be the most skeptical of all! But then again; are we not Jews because we truly trust in the Peaceful Coming of The Peace-Loving Messiah, who will bring peace to all The World and to All Humanity (not just to us Jews)?!? Reasonable compromise, Bibi, reasonable compromise; it’s Real Peace’s middle name!
3. As for Jerusalem; oh Yerushalayim, may I turn into a pillar of salt before I ever forget you! The idea of keeping Jerusalem fully united as the sole Capital of The State of Israel, is nice, but it is not at all realistic in so far as achieving a viable, lasting peace with the Palestinians. Let’s face it Bibi; only when The Messiah is truly declared (when a Jew becomes Anointed King of The Kingdom of Judah) will we Jews be able to reclaim all of Jerusalem (and much more) as ours. Every decent Muslim knows this and will have to contend with this when such a time should actually arise. But, until such a time, the Jewish people need peace more than anything else, and preventing such peace on account of one’s inability to wait, ever-so-patiently, for The Messiah, is nothing less than endangering the lives of all Jews, and if you are truly Jewish Bibi, then you should know this! The life of any and every single Jew is sacred (just as sacred as are the lives of all those who do not threaten the lives of Jews), and to endanger our lives because you would play the unrealistic politics of delaying tactics that would prevent a viable, lasting peace is just as wrong as it would be for the rest of us Jews to agree to join you in such folly, thereby also endangering the lives, the safety and security, of all the other nations of The World! For it is already a certainty, beyond all reasonable doubt, that any Palestinian leader who would sign such an unrealistic, ‘flawed peace agreement’ would not be able to remain in power long enough to deliver the very results needed! Furthermore, we must keep in mind that practicing Jews are forbidden to go up to Mount Moriah where both destroyed Holy Temples stood, that Islam’s Third Holiest site (where, as they understand, their Prophet Muhammad ascended to Heaven) is up there, and that every leader acceptable to the Palestinian people has promised that Jerusalem will, at least in part, be part of any future Palestinian State. Given all these facts, and much more, there can be no doubt that you (should) know that any Two State solution, any truly viable peace settlement, based on any realistic understanding of what is at stake and what is minimally required, must include some kind of an odd-ball compromise solution whereby Jerusalem remains united in terms of access (for Jews, Muslims and Christians) but, with the exception of the Christian, Armenian and Jewish Quarters (as well as West Jerusalem and a few parts of East Jerusalem) the rest of Jerusalem, including Mount Horiah (for us The Temple Mount), the Muslim Quarter and much of the rest of East Jerusalem would have to be part of their Palestinian State, in such a way that there is an international entity able to insure peace and security. Such would probably be made up of United Nations, US, Jordanian and EU officers (it could be known as The Jerusalem International Security Force) in all parts of Old Jerusalem, helping insure that Jerusalem somehow becomes the first City in The World to be semi-united semi-divided, being both the Capital of Israel and the Capital of Palestine! All of Greater Jerusalem would have to be demilitarized and a joint Israeli-Palestinian Security Force, supervised by the Commander of The Jerusalem International Security Force (and his Deputies), would also have to be established to help prevent incidents such as people throwing stones and other missiles down towards Jews praying at The Kotel (The Western Wall) and people going up to The Temple Mount area seeking to incite the anger of Muslim worshippers. Only by such an intricate, sophisticated and yet realistic solution to the Grand Question of Jerusalem can the final piece to ‘the puzzle of peace’ be put into place!
4. Only when there is also a viable (potentially everlasting) peace agreement and settlement between Israel and the Palestinians, that brings about a Two State Solution, will it also be possible, and to some extent necessary, for Israel to finally be able to make peace with Syria and Lebanon, which will almost surely result in a broader peace between Israel and The Entire Arab World, which will eventually translate into peace between Israel and the rest of The Islamic World, which would most likely include peace with a new Iran! Only when there is such a Pan-Arab-Israeli peace will there be fantastic business trade opportunities for all of The Middle East and The Mediterranean, and only then will the rest of The World witness the overall beauty and benefits of viable realistic peace based on reasonable compromise and justified tolerance! For without peace Israel will continue to become more and more isolated and forced into a senseless, eternal and self-destructive Massada-style Fortress Complex! Israel, and for that matter its allies in the European Union and The United States, cannot afford to risk delaying the inevitable peace any longer! If anything the recent violent events in Gaza show that things can really get way out of hand throughout all of the Middle East with mortally dire consequences for the rest of The World too! The last thing we Jews want is to be misperceived as the very people who, having helped bring about The Ten Commandments and The Law of Love of G-D (i.e. “Do unto others as they really want to be done unto and do nothing unto anyone that they don’t want done!”), end up being the cause of the final, most horrific destruction of The World! So, Bibi, listen up, because even if I, a Jew, am not The Messiah, I have a very good idea what Our Future King, before becoming Anointed, would advise you to do, right now and not later; make peace while the going is still good! Make peace before the world begins to doubt that we are true Jews! Make peace for the sake of the children of both our peoples! Make peace for the sake of all good Jews, Muslims and Christians, and all other good peoples on Earth! Make peace, because that is exactly what being Jewish is all about! Do it!

So, there! There you have it Bibi: do the right thing and reap the rewards or end up being just another Israeli leader who failed to make History and who inadvertently put us all one step closer to another Shoah! G-D forbid! NEVER AGAIN! NEVER!

President Barack H. Obama's Historic Speech: Between The Words Breaths of Wisdom

2009-06-05T14:19:00.001-07:00

by Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, a Philosophical Advisor to The President.

London, England - June 5, 2009.

There should be no doubt about it, the Historic speech made in Cairo, Egypt by President Barack H. Obama and delivered with great confidence to the Islamic Nations and peoples of the World, and to Arab Muslims in particular, had a lot more nuance and purpose in it than one would first sense by only listening to its words!
Every breath between every thought uttered by President Obama held in it an air of deep wisdom whose purpose is greater than the sum of the words contained in his speech. The tone and the facial expressions of President Obama were like the invaluable markers used in the Hebrew Alef-Bet to denote specific sounds, vowels and consonants, without which it would be impossible to be even relatively sure what the author meant to write or the speaker really meant to say!

Mind you, I will not go into a detailed analysis of what exactly was meant by every gesture, expression, intonation, word, sentence, etc., for that could really take up a lot more time and space than is needed to make my point in this article. Suffice it to say, President Barack H. Obama's speech held in it both great promise and a stern warning, as well as what might be considered a coded sub-message! The great promise was one of almost infinite hope and faith in the principle that has been President Obama's legacy thus far: that almost every Human Being in the world, every child of the Great Spirit of H'SH'M, including the vast majority of Muslims, Jews and Christians, desire exactly the same basic things in this Life, World and from each neighbor and stranger! In effect, that almost all of us really do understand that there is a need, and thus a compelling possibility, for true compromise and tolerance based on the principle that without such we will never see an end to all the senseless extreme fear, irrational hatred, dehumanizing injustice, barbaric brutality, insensible threats and horrific violence that has plagued the world for millennia and might continue to plague us till we either come to our best senses or end up, unfortunately sooner than later, causing a world conflagration and final man-made disaster that will wipe out virtually everyone and every ounce of beautiful art, artistic design and imaginative creation we humans have ever produced! And also included in that great promise was an understanding that H'SH'M (G-D All-Loving) would not want us to murder one another in the name of any system of belief, faith or dogma, and that the true essence of what binds all the major religions and Spiritual Philosophies of the world must be the commonality of the Law of Love of H'SH'M; "Do Unto Others As They Truly Want To Be Done Unto and Do Nothing Unto Anyone That They Do Not Really Want To Have Done Unto Them!" True, President Obama inadvertently used the old and inaccurate version of what he really meant to say (he used the "Do unto others as you would want unto thyself!") as someone who I know cherishes the best of True Free-Masonic Ideals (mind you; not to be confused with the current mish-mash abusing the good name of Freemasonry!), as one who has studied the wisdom and compassion of Saladin (Ṣalāḥ ad-Dīn Yūsuf ibn Ayyūb), a wisdom that gave rise to The Knights Templar and eventually to the Freemasonry that helped bring about such great individuals as His Majesty King Charles The Second (King Charles II of England), Baruch Spinoza and Sir Isaac Newton (forgive me for not mentioning the Islamic and Jewish scholars of Islam's Golden Scientific Age, whom we should trouble ourselves to learn more about) who were very much part of The Rennaisance and The Age of Enlightenment, without which we would probably have gone into extinction by now!
In essence, President Barack H. Obama was actually invoking the memory of the Clash of Civilizations known mostly as The Crusades, which could easily have caused the collapse of all civilization in the World, had it continued and spread its megalomania elsewhere! And therein lies also President Obama's warning! For his predecessor, probably not fully aware of it, had almost served the full interests of those who almost succeeded in igniting another Worldwide Clash of Civilizations that would have caused a permanent and irrevocable divide, leading to all manner of megalomania and violence, between one side and the Islamic World, which numbers over 1.3 to 1.5 Billion people...over one-fifth of the World's total population at present!!! Anyone in their right mind can clearly see what that would have meant! No religion on Earth, no dogma or ideology, Spiritual or otherwise, can manage to dominate the world by force or even by gradual efforts at full conversion! Like it or not, we're going to have to accept that H'SH'M is above traditional religion, and that the True Way to Live by G-D's Golden Law of Love is to be found in our own individual, special, self-realized connection to H'SH'M!

We must be steadfast in our resolve to support President Obama and his efforts, through his Administration and as CEO of The United States of America, to bring about the Peaceful World Order he and most people in the World desire, need and should already have had ages ago!

They're Absolutely Nuts! Shameless Pirates, Thieves and Con-Artists!

2009-04-15T22:51:00.000-07:00

WE the people of The United States of America live in really difficult and dangerous times! Here we are in the middle of a major economic crisis that could easily turn into a serious and possibly final World Economic Depression, caused in great measure by the unscrupulous deregulation President Bush and his Neo-Con cronies managed to push on America, and the very people who perpetrated and benefitted from this grand theft and massive act of piracy now have the gall to threaten, nay, to hold a gun to the heads of America's working classes! They refuse to pay their taxes and thereby threaten to destabilize President Barack Obama's honorable efforts to restore confidence in America and its economic future!! This amounts to nothing less than a declaration of war on those who have already suffered the most as a result of their greed-fest and their murderous opportunism! Where's McCain now? Did he not pledge and promise to support our Commander-in-Chief at a time of great national emergency? By not speaking out against these pseudo-patriotic protests is he not actually an accomplice??

As far as I can tell, this is the first major salvo in what may (unless McCain and others speak out and break ranks) eventually become all-out class warfare and a new American Civil War! Not between a relatively progressive anti-slavery Yankee North and a definitely regressive pro-slavery Confederate South, but between those who leech off the blood, sweat and tears of poor working people and those who have enough sense to join their fellow poverty-ridden Americans in seeking to restore America's true moral high-ground and to bring about a New Ethical Reality based on the real principles of the Founders of our great country!

This is not The Boston Tea of old...no ma'am, no siree! This is impure, adulterated Insani-Tea! And this numbskull pseudo-plumber Sam Wurzelbach (seen above...courtesy of AP) probably has no clue how wrong he and those he's with are!

If a significant number of these Right-wing nuts fail to pay their Federal Taxes they can cause our courts to become overwhelmed and worse! President Obama would then be left with no other option but to declare a National Emergency and invoke special powers! This would then be used by these heavily armed Right-wing extremists as a pretext to begin killing people and triggering a Civil War like none yet seen. This would be a definite disaster for the world...even if President Obama were able to insure the support of the military and most of America's law-enforcement community. For an America seen as unstable and on the verge of splitting up into two; a Coastal America East-West-North versus the New South and Central States, is an America that would be taken advantage of by other countries.

About Zeitgeist - The Movie (as seen on YouTube)

2009-04-15T13:55:00.000-07:00

In a nutshell; Zeitgeist-The Movie states many truthful and quintessentially true facts about what is going on in the world, in terms of some unknown group of people who profit from the insufferable status quo, that is monstrously inhuman, but it is not totally truthful and objective in its conclusions and overall statement, for the real truth is far more complex and would show that people like President FDR and the Rothchild family dynasty were and/or are in reality not directly the maliciously evil individuals and oligarchs they are made out to be! FDR was a relatively good person whom both sides of the real divide found could be trusted to reduce the fire enough, so as to save and improve the lives of the lower classes. The Rothchild’s are like Madoff; they were duped into thinking that they were serving the interests of world peace and stability by people who were far more clever and unethical than they were! In fact, this tendency to blame the “bankers” fails to take into account the Ottoman Factor! The Ottoman Factor, as I coined it, is the idea that for a brutal central authority to run things smoothly it needs to find an ethnic group that has been most victimized and in exchange for some degree of improvement and protection from further atrocities will feel compelled to serve that brutal central authority, much as the Ottoman Sultans used Jews throughout the Arab world and in those European lands they conquered to be the administrators and to manage the supply of money, funds and other resources needed to fuel the effort at greater conquest! Zeitgeist-The Movie fails to get deep enough into the picture and understand that the real individuals who benefit the most know all too well how to manipulate front-persons, and that these real culprits are truly anti-Semitic and anti-Humanistic, as being one implies the other! The real victims of what is going on in the world are all poor people and some relatively middle class persons, including especially the Jewish people as a whole. Because the real oligarchs and plutocrats are not the people held up in front of our eyes, but those who work behind the scenes to create this false picture of “truth”, whose interests lie in using/manipulating any Jew they can or destroying any Jew who is smart enough to see the truth and who might get in their way! Clearly, in terms of percentages of any ethnic group, the Jewish people have been the most brutalized and murdered by those who manipulated events to cause World War One and World War Two, as well as some other wars before and since!
In World War One many fine Jewish intellectuals were forced into fighting for one or the other side and most did not survive! Of course, in terms of sheer numbers more non-Jews were murdered by all those wars, but in terms of percentage of total number of all Jews the number of Jews murdered directly or indirectly, as combatants or civilians, is far greater than that of almost any other ethno-religious group in Europe and the World. Perhaps the one exception in World War One and Two were Gypsies, i.e. Roma, Shinti and other Gypsy people. So, when we watch this documentary we should keep all that in mind. Also Zeitgeist-The Movie fails to show the full truth about how complex and otherwise almost impossible it is for a country as big and populous as America (the USA) to remain in existence at all and yet to be able to do so in a relatively pro-Constitutional manner! Zeitgeist-The Movie goes too far in blaming the government and its administrators and is not totally correct about the issue of the Constitutionality of Income Tax!

The one very powerful, truthful and important message of this YouTube documentary is the fact that credit cards and micro-chip trackers and implants are a lethal threat to human civilization, democracy, freedom and humanity as a whole!

The Founders of America intended its Constitution to ultimately protect the rights/freedoms/liberties of INDIVIDUALS...both poor and wealthy ones....from the rights/freedoms/liberties of GROUPS and of ORGANIZATIONS, including CORPORATE and GOVERNMENT! For a society in which the individual is at the mercy of other individuals and groups of individuals is NOT A TRUE DEMOCRACY and eventually becomes so corrupt, chaotic and self-destructive! Demcoracy is NOT about the TOTAL RULE OF THE MAJORITY, but about the relative RULE OF THE MAJORITY in such a way that does not threaten the EXISTENCE AND RIGHTS of THE MINORITY, ESPECIALLY THE INDIVIDUAL! No True Democracy can last that becomes either an instrument of RUTHLESS MAJORITY RULE or RUTHLESS INDIVIDUAL OR MINORITY RULE!

When Will The Decision-Makers Finally Listen To Reason?

Subtitle: The Roots of This Senseless, Senseless Violence; The Culture of Winners Versus Losers, of Intolerance Versus Tolerance.

by Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher.

There really is no way for me to express with words how sad and angry this sick, senseless atrocity in Binghamton, New York makes me feel. I wish I could express my deep sympathy to each and every person whose loved one was murdered. Yes, there are reasons why people become extremely sick and we continue to ignore the obvious answers concerning how we can actually reduce such incidents from happening in the future, but there is never an excuse for such acts of violence...never! Obviously this was not perpetrated by someone with any remaining sense of humanity, compassion or respect for the humanity of others. And obviously the perpetrator of this most cowardly and disturbing criminal act of mass murder is further evidence of just how violent our world has become and how important it is for communities to find ways to provide the kind of social, emotional and physical intervention long before anyone reaches such a senselessly sick state of mind! And I am not talking about profiling people for the purpose of further disenfranchising them and making them feel even more threatened by society. For ignored and/or improperly and inadequately handled mental illness gets worse over time. Especially when the greater society at large is already plagued by a culture, and subcultures, of fortuitous violent conditioners, such as some types of video games, so-called sporting events, unjustified types of wars and improper military training methods, and certain types of movies that unrealisitically or too explicitly portray senselessly fortuitous scenes of violence, extreme cruelty and barbarism!

Another major factor is how much of our modern technologies are over-relied-on and/or misused, whereby people do not develop the right set of social graces and emotional sophistication to be able to create and maintain healthy social lives, both in terms of real platonic friendship(s) or friendship(s) of a more intimate kind. The re-enforcement of the expectation of quick, instant and superficial
self-gratification that lacks the ability to provide the kind of deeper, truly meaningful human social contact born of patience, tolerance, compassion, sharing and emotional and verbal honesty is very much at the heart of this catastrophic state of affairs! Too many persons are way too dependent on the kind of virtual reality electronic computer-based networking tools, which can never fully substitute the need for direct human contact, and yet too many people are living in fear of the fact that too many laws supposedly meant to better protect society tend to actually make it even more difficult for people to risk attemptying to befriend today’s stranger who was yesterday’s friend somewhere else and who could be tomorrow’s friend yet! In a sense we have managed to create a most unhealthy society by overlegislating social behavior, by throwing out the baby with the dirtwater, by failing to provide proper, relatively safe, alternative venues for people to meet and make new friends not based only on some set of narrow interests, but
based on our greater universal humanity! In a sense we cannot really have it both ways when it comes to living in open and democratic societies! We cannot have public law and government that is either neutral or even hostile to universalist human values, in effect societies which ignore the need for a greater sense of human connectedness and which ignore or oppose creative, relatively safe alternative venues for adults to release their frustrations in non-violent ways and where they can make new friends that are based on deeper emtional foundations! We cannot have a society that expects its citizens to be honest at work and when dealing with authorities but which somehow punishes honesty in human relations. You either have a society that only extols so-called conservative family-clan-centric social values, private elitist social groups and strict monogamy, which then, especially in hard economic times (but not only then), pushes the “losers” into extreme conditions that sometimes cause an already unstable person to explode in senseless rage and violence, or you have a society that seeks to accommodate to the most basic social, physical and matterial needs of the least of its members! A society that only awards its winners is a losing proposition! (A society that only awards its winners is a losing society!) A society that always has decent consolation prizes for those who did not win, that is to say a society that does not criminalize the natural needs of those whose matterial means are limited, is a winning society! Of course,
there are those who will point out the extreme failure of the Sixties Hippy Era and the kind of harm that comes from that kind of lax, laissez-faire, do as you please attitude! But to suggest that there is only two opposite extreme choices; one that is too Puritanistic for its own good and the other that is too loose for its own
good risks denying the possibility of a true alternative in which the traditionalist conservatives can still have their own lives in their private spaces and the responsibly progressive liberals can have their alternative lifestyles in relatively safer ways!

Whatever the specifics behind the personality traits of this mass murdering psycho may be, the fact of the matter is this: eight years of almost total rule by pseudo-democratic neo-conservative idealists has actually made things much worse in greater American society at large and these kind of atrocities are its result and would actually become less likely in a country that makes it perfectly clear that the only real American Way is that which is non-violent unity-in-diversity-oriented and in which government not only seeks to reduce access to the means to do harm, but seeks to work with the private sector to establish drug-free social venues where natural emotional and even physical intimacy is not discouraged! After all, there is a reason that the de-nazification of post-WW2 Germany included creating those kind of venues for adults to release excess stress and to develop deeper emotional relationships! It is only more recently in Germany that government once more began to meddle in the ability of poor adults to meet one another! Just as so-called Communism unleashed a chain of events that still destroys lives, even after the system has been gone, so do all other forms of extremist ideological systems, which includes that side of the Hippy Movement that mixed substance abuse with so-called Free Love, including that of the Neo-Cons!

The point is this: if we want a safer America (and World) then we need a saner America (and World), and if we want a saner America we need to realize that if those who are poor, unemployed and in great financial and matterial difficulty at least have all their basic, minimum needs provided for, especially their need for social relations, from purely platonic ones to ones that help sattisfy a need for intimate yet truly honest, respectful, physical and emotional relationships (including for those who are considered by the majority as odd-balls, non-conformists and into fringe lifetstyles), then people are less likely to totally lose their minds and become capable of such atrocities!

London High Drama Starring President Barack Obama

London High Drama Starring President Barack Obama

By Jean-Pierre A. Fenyo, Philosopher & Writer

02:20 a.m., London, England, UK, EU – George Soros understands better than almost any person alive today just how dire the circumstances are, not just financially but in terms of global economic and geo-political stability! Within less than 24 hours the world, starting with its key decision-makers, will either breathe a deep sigh of relief and begin to rise constructively out of the muck of financial and economic doom and gloom or the world will begin its final roller-coaster ride of weeks of extreme market volatility and the beginning of what would definitely not only be something far worse than The Great Depression of 1929, but a series of other related disasters that would definitely destroy human civilization as we know it today! Given the kind of weird Global Russian Roulette Situation we have, with every one of the G-20 nations holding a gun to the head of the other, and all the potential for a total meltdown of trust, not to mention the kind of weapons of mass destruction that did not even exist in 1929, we must all hope and pray that these powerful leaders and their advisors will heed the warning of George Soros and others.

In the past few days, just before this G-20 Crisis Meeting is about to convene, France and Germany have decided to stick to their guns in their conviction that what is really needed most is stronger and better regulation of global business and finance practices and activities, and France has even threatened to walk-out if Global Financial Regulation is not significantly strengthened. For in their view this Global Financial and Economic Crisis is evidence, as they say, of the systemic failure of the Anglo-Saxon type of Global Financial Markets and International Finance structures and business activities, with its excessive deregulation, especially during the Bush Administration years. This rather harsh anti-Anglo-American stance is in contrast to the preference of the British and Americans to get the Continental European giants and other G-20 nations to pool and pour more money into government financial-crisis-management programs, including massive infrastructure investment projects and works as well as other business-salvaging programs to reduce and eventually reverse the rapidly growing unemployment rates, efforts to bail-out and prop-up key financial, banking, insurance and securities institutions, efforts to use this crisis as an opportunity to shift production towards alternative, green, transportation and energy technologies, as well as other efforts to not only restore confidence in the global economy but to set a new course for the entire world! France, Germany and a few other key European Union nations think that most of the burden of the costs of restoring global market stability should be born by the key perpetrators of this crisis, namely the United Kingdom and The United States of America. And it seems that if both sides are willing to play a dangerous, ultimate high stakes international Game of Chicken the ultimate losers may be everyone else in the world!

Obviously what is needed is some cool-headed wisdom and the determination to make every effort to find a relatively reasonable compromise, but in such a way that somehow really does end up providing the world most of what either side has wanted in the first place. For anyone sufficiently educated, knowledgeable and informed can see that both sides are more right than wrong. Sure, to blame this Global Crisis on the so-called Anglo-Saxon Financial Markets and International Finance Model is wrong. The idea that rich people and their Big Businesses would never do anything that would significantly endanger the very global stability they depend on is either very naïve or born of short-term malicious greed and selfish-minded foolishness. But such stupidity was not at all part of the original so-called Anglo-Saxon model when it all came into place at the height of The Industrial Revolution. In fact, one could just as well argue that it was actually the extremely aggressive and strict German labor-intensive model combined with the traditional Japanese Corporate Fascism model, where the individual worker is practically owned by the company they work for, which too many greedy businesspersons throughout the world, and especially in America, adopted beginning in the early 80s with Reaganomics and its sick Trickle-down Supply-side excessively consumerist-addicting economic model. Clearly this Era of Careless and Imbalanced Globalization, with its increasingly nasty and excessive competition between nation-state economies, was heavily exploited by the rich everywhere, including, to a great extent, by rich German, French and other Western European businesspersons, as well as by many rich OPEC member state citizens!

While most American and European citizens were not in any significant way the ultimate beneficiaries of the kind of greed- and selfishness-driven, ruthless business practices that made the American-owned markets such lucrative sources of investment- and speculation-based fortunes, not just for the top one percent of Americans, but also for European elite businesspersons, many who are multi-national citizens, and quite a few who are dual American and European citizens, most people in the poorer nations of the world, as well as a significant minority in America and Western Europe were the ones to have to pay the price for such excesses! Not just in terms of jobs and household economies at risk, but in terms of serious job-related health problems, suffering and premature deaths! But we must also remember the cost of AIDS and other preventable epidemics which were not at all helped (and in fact were exacerbated) by the very erroneous and zealous ideals, social strictures and policies of the administrations of Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, then to a lesser extent Bush Junior’s policies, and the unrealistic attitude of some other major religious institutions. And to top it all, one must not forget to take into serious consideration the very negative financial and economic consequences of the sick terrorist attacks of 9-11-2001, which were exploited for very sinister political and financial interests by the Neo-Conservatives of the Bush Administration, to the added benefit of extreme Rapture-addicted so-called-Christians (mostly of the Neo-Evangelist type). In sum, the current Global Crisis was caused by many things combined which together became the proverbial “perfect storm”. Thus Sarkozy, Merkel and Jean-Claude Juncker, to name just a few, are not as righteous in their condemnation as would first appear to be the case.

Surely President Obama cannot be in any way held responsible for this mess which was caused, in great measure, by the Bush Administration’s rampant deregulatory practices and policies and its Fiasco in Iraq, with its very negative consequences for the rest of the world! In fact both Chancellor Merkel and President Sarkozy would be well advised to listen to Obama and his entourage of experts, as well as to George Soros, whose advice was echoed just the other day by both Prime Ministers Kevin Rudd of Australia and Gordon Brown of the UK. Now would be the very worst time for France to storm out and Germany to stand still, especially as recent events in The Middle East show how desperately and urgently all peoples there need President Obama to be able to restore confidence in the global markets so as to concentrate on using his magnificent talent at bringing diverse groups together and his exceptional skill at talking sense into people, for the sake of lasting peace, global security and a New Era of Prosperity based on real technological, social and environmental progress!

Dehumanizing Your Enemy Serves Only To Dehumanize Yourself!

2009-03-19T17:01:00.001-07:00

In the past I have tended to be very specific about what specific incident(s), event(s) or issue(s) I am writing about. While doing so may have been useful in getting people to think about those things more seriously it has often harmed my more universal goal(s). In effect; universal wisdom is very hard to convey without giving specific examples, but by going into specifics one risks being misunderstood and one's universal values risk being perceived as hypocrisy! So, this time I find myself forced to avoid being specific in the hope that a broader and ultimately more important message be conveyed.

A recent event happened that over time will push a certain set of people in the world to re-evaluate things and to make very hard decisions. This event was not only a most complex event, but its root causes are even more complex! To give you a rough idea of what I might be talking about I am going to relate to you a semi-fictional story that has a lot of basis in reality:

The Story of History Island

(by Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo...myself ofcourse)

Not very long ago there was a time when large sailing ships were the only way significant numbers of people could travel from one side of an ocean to another. In those days there were many unchartered, undiscovered and unknown islands, especially in Tropical waters. This is the story of such a ship and such an island.

H.M.S. Wilberforce was a grand Galleon over 120 feet in length and 80 feet in width, fore to aft. It had three decks and could comfortable transport over 300 persons from the coast of England to the coast of Peru in about 2 and a half months.

On May 14, 1748 H.M.S. Wilberforce was caught in a sudden and rather violent storm, and during that storm it went off course nearly 40 nautical miles! By nightfall the storm began to subside but not enough to prevent the ship from hitting a reef and being split into two! Fortunately enough, all but 11 of the 220 passengers aboard managed to swim to the safety of the shores of a nearby, uninhabited island! The ship was transporting 170 ethno-religious fanatics and 50 relatively normal persons! And of the fanatics most were of X Ethno-Religion and only a few were of Y Ethno-Religion. The ratio of each group among the 11 dead was approximately the same.

Within a few days the island had been fully explored, and was found to be as big as London City proper was in 1748! It had everything imaginable for relatively normal living, including several fresh water springs, a few small lakes, a couple of waterfalls, several small dormant volcanic mountains, plenty of tropical fruit trees and berry bushes, an assortment of various wild animals, including fowl, reptiles and rodents, not to mention some poisonous spiders, snakes and what not! It also was surrounded by beautiful soft-sanded pearly-white beaches, brilliantly clear aquamarine blue warm tropical water and inlets, rich in fish and other wonders of the sea! The Captain of the ship tried to keep everyone united, but soon enough two main groups formed, and two smaller groups. The largest group was for those who were religious fanatics of the X Ethno-Religion, numbering some 130 people, followed by the second largest one, comprised of the 50 non-fanatic persons of both ethno-religious backgrounds, but mostly being of the Y Ethno-Religious background, another smaller one comprised of the Y ethno-religious fanatics whose number was 20, and the smallest of them all was made up of the few who were a-religious and who numbered just 9!

Logically the island was divided into four distinct territories, but the proportions were not quite fair! The X fanatics, being the largest number of people, easily managed to force everyone else into much smaller parcels of land, especially parcels of land that were not the nicest ones either! The X fanatics named their 90% of the island "X-ria", the non-fanatic, predominantly of Y background, group named their 4% of the island "Democratonia", the Y fanatics named their 4% "Zealand", and the group of 9 a-religious people named their 2% "Athenia". Already the seeds of conflict were beginning to be sown! Especially because there was a brief time of a few days when the "Democratonians" held at least 10% of the island, including a very viable section which would have made it possible for them to live relatively decent lives, without harming anyone else!

In the first two months that followed there were signs of growing tension and some minor border disputes and fist-fights, but otherwise there was so-called 'peace' without fairness; an obviously false peace that would not last long!

The "Athenians" had also had enough of the situation and decided to join forces with the "Democratonians" in demanding that the "Democratonians" get a full 10%, and they, the "Athenians" get another 2%. The "Zealanders" suffered in their small and poor piece of the island, but refused to risk war!

What happened next was totally unnexpected! One of the women from X-ria fell in love with a man from Democratonia, and left her parents, brother and two uncles to be live in Democratonia with her newfound love! In effect, she had decided not to be a fanatic anymore. Unfortunately this did not go down well with her familials and they attempted to force her back and threatened to kill her lover. When they almost succeeded, causing serious injury to the love-struck couple, the Democratonians and Athenians declared war on the X-rians and after three days of violent conflict, in which ten X-rians, two Democratonians and one Athenian were killed, the Democratonians managed to capture roughly 16% of the island, and awarded 2% more to the Athenians. From that point on things were definitely not peaceful. After ten years of conflict the borders changed little, but the children were born and the total population began to increase, even with a few fatalities every now and then! Then in the 12th year the Democratonians, in an attempt to get back to the 'real world', sent an expedition on a small raft, which discovered another much larger island that was actually inhabited! Its people were called the Restonians and soon enough trade was established between the two islands. The Restonians did not know who their ancestors were or how they had come to live on their island and they had had no contact with any other peoples for longer than they could remember! But the Restonians trade was not exclusively with the Democratonians, Athenians or even the Zealanders. They soon made special and exclusive alliances and deals with each group, and discovered that by exploiting the conflict between the peoples of The Island of Historia they could benefit greatly! After all the Restonians numbered four times the total number of people on Historia!

Now what I forgot to tell you is that in 2% of that extra 4% of the land the Democratonians held a family of X-rians decided to remain and they soon grew in number. These X-rians somehow managed to live under Democratonian rule without much ado, until a group of the originally displaced X-rians decided to exploit this fact and force that family into conflict with the Democratonians. At some point the X-rians began launching suicide attacks, using crude explosives made from the various natural minerals imported from Restonia Island! The situation eventually became so bad that the Democratonians threatened another all-out war with the X-rians, especially after the X-rians began to tell half-truths about the history of the conflict of Historia Island to the Restonian Islanders. The Restonian Islanders were such opportunists that they cleverly managed to play up to each side to the degree that suited them best; knowing that it would always be to their advantage to keep the conflict going while seeming to want all sides to make a lasting peace settlement! The X-rians even tried to turn the Y fanatics of Zealand against Democratonia and Athenia! Such that most of the Y fanatics of Zealand felt forced to leave Zealand and live in Democratonia, leaving a small fraction of Zealanders to actually allow Restonia to use Zealand as their foothold, in exchange for protection from either side! For this to work these few Zealand fanatics who remained in Zealand spoke more and more in favor of the "plight" of the X-rians, even lying about the actual truth of the actual History of Historia's conflict. Thus such a situation began to arise that was to the detriment of all! The X-rians began to subdivide into various clans, some of whose leaders were worse than others, and even a few who made relative peace with Democratonia! The Democratonians were living in constant fear of the suicide attacks by the X-rians in the land they held, which they were more than willing to return to X-ria if all the X-rians would agree to let Democratonia live peacefully on its original 10% of the island's land! Even though the Democratonians had set up, over time, a very strict set of rules and laws governing their military, a small but growing minority within their military began to violate those wise rules and laws, mostly out of revenge for the loss of loved ones to the X-rians, who seemed to have no qualms about using such suicide attacks! Such suicide attack methods were alien to the culture and history of the Democratonians, and to even most of the Restonians! Yet the Restonian leaders, who also had various competing clans, failed to ever point out to the X-rians how totally unacceptable such suicide attacks were, and continued to profit from the conflict! Anyway, as time went on another minority of Democratonians, joined by many Athenians, a few former Zealanders and even some Restonians and X-rians began to express concern over that minority of the Democratonian military which were even killing unarmed X-rians in the occupied part of X-ria. Things were obviously going to get even more and more dangerous as new and more destructive technologies and weapons were invented and any peaceful outcome seemed less and less likely!

That is, until twenty years and countless lives lost later, yet another large island, slightly further away, finally discovered the Island of Historia and The Island Restonia! For on that island, New India, lived a wise man who was their democratically elected leader and knowing that he could use his islands vast wealth and resources for good began to try to point out to all parties concerned just how dangerous the situation was. But the Restonians, who had profited, did not care to take the warning seriously enough, and they argued that if New India wanted to really help they should give a piece of their own island to the non X-rian Historians, especially to the Democratonians! But by now the Democratonians had suffered too much injustice and would never agree to anyone else running their affairs! Even if the New Indians were able to give a part of their island to the Democratonians, which they were not, the Democratonians had a deep historic connection to their land and that combined with their fear of having to rely on outsiders made such a proposition pointless! Thus, because of these very complicated entangled interests and constant half-truths and even outright lies, a situation arose where the Restonian majority actually began to hate the Democratonians, even as they were themselves not fanatics and would never agree to have the X-rians living next to them! Fortunately for the Democratonians and Athenians of Historia Island a growing number of X-rians were also seeking to live in true democratic and non-fanatic communities within X-ria, but these efforts were violently squashed by most X-rian clan leaders. Most but not all! Another important factor was that many of the X-rians living under Democratonian occupation were actually becoming more interested in Democratonian social ideals and the freedom offered by such, such that the majority of X-rians were no longer really interested in their welfare and yet were more than willing to help incite conflict between occupied and occupier, and to provide the means, in effect the weapons, to keep the conflict going on and on and on! And even in Democratonia there emerged a few corrupt and unethical leaders who abused their positions of authority and who understood that their own ability to profit financially from the continuation of the conflict was to insure that the conflict would continue!!!

Still, the problem was that a new and most terrifying weapon, based on parabolic mirrors and the rays of The Sun was about to make the whole mess even more dangerous for all three islands! The Democratonians managed to invent this Sun Ray weapon, but the Restonians were soon able to invent their own version, which they sold to one of the X-rian clans! The New Indians were now forced to make their own Sun Ray weapon and soon enough this super weapon was in the hands of all sides. But to make matters worse it was discovered that an X-rian group of ultra-fanatics were making efforts to get the biological weaponry developed by the Restonians and the New Indians, with which they would be able to unleash utter chaos!

Excerpts from my next book, titled: "Light-Time & Other Deepest Thoughts" by Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher Extraordinaire.

Generally speaking; the faster one travels through space the slower time passes/happens! And, until recently, based on the Theory of Special Relativity and Einstein’s famous E=mc Squared equation, it would seem perfectly, i.e. equationally (mathematologically), true to state that someone traveling at the speed of light would not perceive the passing of time at all! But according to Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo’s theory, known to a very select few Theoretical Physicists as “Fenyo’s Theory of Differential Times”, sub-atomic particles, i.e. Quantum Particles, exist in their own types of time, and the time in which Living Organisms exist and which they “experience” is Macro-Atomic or Chemical Time!!! Light’s own time is Micro-Atomic or Quantum Time!!! That is to say; Time is actually not Absolutely Relative, but only Relatively Relative, and there are between two to four possible Different Types of Time! In general time is the measurement of the activity of relatively motionless matter (slow or weak “energy”…in effect Weak Force o) as it is affected by the force of other relatively motionful matter, fast matter or strong energy (the Strong Force)! Since Photons are the Quanta radiations (or emissions) that emanate from the interaction of Matter (Weak Force) and Energy (Strong Force), which are two states of the same Atomic (i.e. Chemical) Realm of Physics, they are not existing within the Atomic or Chemical Time, i.e. Macro-Atomic Time, but in Micro-Atomic Time, i.e. The Quantum Realm of Physics (the study of which is known as Quantum Physics). Light cannot travel exactly at the Absolute Speed of Theoretical Light! The Constant or Speed at which Light does travel will always be less than 100% of it Purely Hypothetical Speed, as no such thing as an Absolute Vacuum can exist anywhere in Reality! Space-Time is subject to the Weakest Force: Gravity, which is also the Fastest Force! Faster than Light! But Gravitation Time, or Intra-Universal Time is also not the type of Time we Bio-Chemical Beings can ever experience! (There exists, in a loose sense of the word “exists”, a Fake “Fifth Time”: Imaginary Time…but that is an Unreal Time and not subjectable to True Scientific Inquiry!)

Absolutely Important Eternal Truths/Axioms to keep in mind:

Absolutely Important Eternal Truths/Axioms to keep in mind:

1. There can be no such thing as NOTHING! Theoretically and logically nothing would be what an Absolute Vacuum would be, if it could be! Which is a good thing, as that would have opened the possibility of a Universe devoid of an Absolute Insurance Against Non-Existentiality!

2. Also; nothing can be Absolutely At Rest or Devoid of Time! NOTHING! Light itself “experiences” (using the word “experiences” metaphorically only) its own passing of events or Light Time, i.e. Micro-Atomic Time, or Quantum Time!

3. Spin (motion of electrons around atomic nuclei) is always happening, even when Chemical Conditions (Macro-Atomic States) are such that almost all Energy is almost totally released! Nothing can ever become totally Absolutely At Rest (so as to be able to become NOTHING…the NOTHING from which Absolute Vacuum would come into EXISTENCE!!!)

4. As Light (Photon Quanta and Waves of Chain-Photon Reaction) travels/moves through the Relative Vacuum of Outer Space (in this case Inter-Stellar and Inter-Galactic Space) it is slowed down over vast periods (Eons) of time, and thus becomes Weak Light! In fact, the Theory of The Big Bang is based on the wrong observations of what is really happening throughout the Cosmos of The Visible Universe! Most of what is observed is less about Red Shift, if about any Red Shift at all, and more about Weak(ened) Light!

5. There are no Absolutely Perfect Spheres of ANYTHING! No Quantum Particle, no Atom, not Planet or Star is ever able to be a Perfect Sphere! Of course, in terms of the kind of balls (spheres) we are able to produce on Earth, under the influence of gravity, the balls (spheres) that are produced in the Near Zero Gravity are far more perfect, but never totally perfectable! This is very important, because this also has to do with another fundamental aspect of Light In Motion! Since Photons are only near-perfect, thus imperfect, spheres they are “shifted” out of any “straight” line of movement over any extent of Space-Time! That is to say, the Light we observe from distant celestial objects (“natural” Super-Atomic Physical Structures, i.e. Stars, Galaxies, etc.) can never convey perfectly reliable images! In effect, the “information” we have about ever-distant objects is less and less accurate! Time is only RELATIVE! Time never truly, totally equals Distance divided by Rate (or Ratio). The equation t=d/r is subject to both The Type of Time we are concerned with (as in Macro-Atomic Time, Micro-Atomic Time, Hyper-Dimensional Spiritual Time, etc.) and the Relatively Factor of The Imperfection of Time-Flow! Time does not “flow” totally coherently or “smoothly”! Time is always DISTORTED! Light is always DISTORTED!

6. No Macro-Atomic Entity, such as an Atom (Element), Compound, Molecule, Organic Compound, Single Cell Life-form, Multi-cellular Organism (includes us Humans), Space Craft, can travel sufficiently close to the Relative Speed of Light in Relative Vacuum of Space without the effects of something that is similar to what we call ‘Friction’! Macro-Atomic objects traveling close to the Relative Speed of Light in Relative Vacuum are increasingly ‘warped’ out of shape and Gravitationally and Electromagnetically ‘over-excited’…pretty much blown to smithereens by the cumulative Strong and Weak Forces as what happens to food subjected to Microwaves! Microwaves are Electromagnetic waves that cause excessive vibrations within the molecules of relatively moist, i.e. watery, things (i.e. Food substances and organic compounds)!

7. The Spectra Electromagnetic Waves includes the 2 obvious Types of Time! Micro-Atomic or Subatomic and Macro-Atomic or Super-Atomic! The Observable Universe is only possible directly through Light Waves! The reason Light Waves are somewhere in the middle of the Spectra is because of The Radiation Eye Factor! Our eyes are made of living cells able to transmit Visible Light into our Brains! When one understands that even what we “see” (observe) concerning the other Electromagnetic Waves (Frequency & Wavelength) is ultimately ‘seen’ (observed) through Scientific Instruments that ‘convert’ those much Higher and Lower Electromagnetic Waves into Visible “information” Light Waves! All our physical memories (mental images, sounds, and other sensual information) are composed of ‘matrixes’ (‘multi-dimensional grids’) of Manipulated Light Waves!!! Our Spiritual Souls are able to store and retrieve such Light Wave “Compositions”!!! Micro-Atomic Time is not directly experienced through the Mental Mind as organized by The Brain-Body Organism, but while one is in the Living State one can again use Conversion Tools (Scientific Instruments) to perform imperfect observations of the “behavior” of Quanta!!! However, and this is Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo’s own Absolute Rule of Imperfectable Observation also known as The Law of Observationability (term coined by Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo): No observation of anything through the Living Bio-Chemical Senses and Bio-Chemical Brain’s Mental Faculties can ever be perfectly correct observations of any phenomena, as the very imperfection of one’s Senses and Brain must be taken into account even to approximate a potentially more perfect observational understanding! { All Non-Physical memories are Emotional Memories, and require an Eternal Spiritual ‘Existence’ to be perceived and given meaning! } Our very own sense of Time is relatively subjective to our Emotional State of Mind and Spiritual Intuitional Awareness of Time’s passing! In the final analysis; No matter how close we get to perfectly understanding Reality, Physical and Spiritual, through our Living Brain’s Mental Faculties, our conclusions will always be, at best, shy of the Actual Truth of Things! Thus, the best we can do is allow our Intuitive Spiritual Sense to help determine that which is likely (almost certain), that which is unlikely (probably false) and that which is obviously impossible!

8. The starting point of all, true intellectual Reasoning must be with the logical understanding that the Totality of All That Exists and Can Exist is, and has to be, INFINITE! For once we are able to be certain of that Ultimate Absolute Logical Truth ….the only one of Three Ultimate Absolute Truths… of which the other two being: The Ultimate Absolute Physical Truth That NOTHING does not exist and that therefore nothing that TRULY AND FULLY EXISTS NOW can ever truly totally become TOTAL NOTHINGNESS! ; and The Ultimate Absolute Spiritual Truth that there must be an Eternal, Indestructible NON-THING that, while having the ability to interact with The Physical Realm, remains ultimately Existentially Real and Spiritually Perfect! In effect, what we sense to be Our Soul(s)!...then we are able to determine whether or not an Theory or Hypothesis based on any Observation is likely to be Correct (True) or Incorrect (False)! Here are some practical examples: 1. Travel back in time by semi-Physical Bio-Chemical Entities is IMPOSSIBLE, given that Near- and Super-Luminal Speeds for such Entities are impossible! 2. No Super-Spiritual Being, however Spiritually Powerful, could create All Of Infinity! Thus G-D is only Spiritually Almighty; whatever that means! 3. Life cannot just exist in one point in all Infinity, because that would be suggesting that the Infinite Universe is Senselessly Lonely and Life-Wise Meaningless! Thus Life exists throughout all Infinity in those places suitable for it! 4. Life allows the Soul of The Eternal Spiritual Realm to eventually manipulate The Physical Realm to the point of being able to Re-Start The Cycle of Reality in a given, limited ‘portion’ of Infinity!!! Which means that the sense of G-D being Physically Omnipotent may have some element of truth to it as a Spiritually Eternal One, albeit, a Physically Limited One!

9. Everything we can think of and imagine must have some element of truth to it, but nothing we can think of or imagine is a perfect version of the truth concerning anything! – Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher Extraordinaire.

If We Moderates Fail To Speak Out Against Extremists Everyone Is Doomed.

If We Moderates Fail To Speak Out Against Extremists Everyone Is Doomed.

By Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher.

If there is any one thing the brutal Winter War in Gaza, which was between a minority of extremists holding hostage most of Gaza’s Palestinian citizens and an Israel that cannot afford to let extremists develop a situation that would forever manage to ruin every realistic chance for peace, has taught us it is this: extremists should not and cannot be tolerated by moderates on either side, anywhere in the world! Extremism and extremists are a threat to world socio-economic stability, security and overall peace, but the longer the world’s moderates fail to realize the urgency of the need to unite and speak with one unitary and strong voice against extremists, regardless of which specific conflict it may be, the closer we get to a situation that could very well push the world into a truly hopeless abyss of extreme violence spiraling totally out of control, which would eventually, probably within years, set the whole world ablaze! You do not have to be some neurotic doomsday nut to understand why the status quo of a massive failure of moderates to truly unite, and to speak out as one, risks letting extremists decide the course of history. And if extremists are left to decide the course of human history humanity will soon be history.
One would think that the Winter War in Gaza (2008-2009) would have been enough to send a shockwave of alarm bells going off in the capitals of those relatively moderate Middle Eastern and North African, predominantly Arab and Islamic, states. The Good Lord knows that if Egypt’s moderate government were ever to fall and end up in the hand of extremists then that, in of itself, would be enough to end all chances of a relatively peaceful settlement and agreement between relatively moderate Palestinians and Israelis, and that would herald a time when almost every relatively moderate Arab government would fall and the likes of Hamas and Hezbollah would begin to take over and start both a fight amongst themselves and a seemingly endless series of extremely dangerous attacks on Israel, which would not just mean that decades of very hard diplomatic work and strategic alliance building (on the part of The United States and Europe) would vanish into oblivion, but it would mean that extremists on both sides (Israelis and Arabs) would claim to have been proven right all along: that peace cannot exist between these two peoples! And an Arab world taken over by extremists and united by perpetual and senseless extreme hatred of Jews and Israelis would also be a world that would pose a threat to Western Civilization and Liberal Democratic values, including Human Rights and the rights of Individuals, mostly by means of energy resource blackmail. The world, which already suffers from the previous eight years of Neo-Con incompetence and dangerously destabilizing policies in The Middle East and elsewhere, would surely fail to restore itself, economically and otherwise, and that would certainly lead to exceedingly violent rioting throughout Europe and North America, which would then be exploited by brutish megalomaniacs who would manage to take over control and cause further havoc and mayhem everywhere! Hundreds of years of hard work and real progress would go down the drain in a matter of a few years, if not faster, and World War Three would be one horrific mega-shock after another, including chemical, biological and nuclear warfare, to the point of total annihilation of all significant life on Earth!
And when one studies up on the whole complexity of the region’s conflict, and takes into consideration the current Iranian regime’s obvious efforts to attain nuclear weapons, with full launch capacity, capable of striking all of The Middle East and most of Europe, and when one understands what Iran would do, once it would attain such a capacity, then the urgency for real unity and progress among moderates should be absolutely obvious. For Iran would not use its nuclear weapons to strike Israel directly, but instead would be able to force the hands of Europe and The United States, after sinking several large Oil Tankers at the narrowest point of The Persian Gulf, thereby choking off a significant supply of the world’s desperately needed Oil! Iran would then be able to avoid being directly attacked by conventional military means as the USA would not want a Europe obliterated by Iranian nuclear weapons…something the extremist Iranian regime would not hesitate to do if attacked for having gained full control of the flow of Gulf Oil to the world! And then Israel, which would most likely face economic and social collapse, should the Western world stop supporting it, would then have no option but to play its only remaining cards, and that would definitely lead to World War Three, which would not last more than a few months at best!
Just this past Monday representatives of non-moderate Sunnite Islamic groups, who obviously do not represent all Sunnite Arab Muslims, met in Turkey and began to voice their desire to ignite a fully violent Jihad (as opposed to any relatively peaceful type of Jihad) in Gaza and the West Bank! Should they succeed the situation would soon become even worse than it was just this past Winter, and that would mean a final blow to any and all chances for an otherwise urgently needed, lasting, viable peace!
Time is really running out for President Barack Obama and his magnificent team of professional peace-makers to unite the relatively moderate Arab nation’s governments and to support the lukewarm beginnings of true peace between Israel and the relatively moderate PA Palestinians of the West Bank (and eventually to include Gaza…once the Hamas extremists have been properly dealt with by the PA). And one reads too many editorialists and commentators talking about how the War in Gaza means that peace between Israelis and Palestinians will now be further delayed for another two to four ears, at least! Well, we just don’t have the luxury of waiting any longer. I have good reason to think, based on various ominous reports and logical insight, that if a relatively peaceful Two-State solution is not reached by June, then too many things will ensue (happen) that will make it impossible to ever have peace at all! Both Israel and the relatively moderate Arabs must be made to understand why this is so, and how important it is for them to begin to dare to speak out against extremists on all sides. And for that to happen, for Arab and Israeli moderates to be able to come out and speak with one, loud, unequivocally strong and united voice, the rest of the world’s moderates must join the chorus and let the extremists, not just those in Iran and throughout The Middle East, but everywhere in the world, know that we moderates are not willing to remain silent and divided any longer. If we moderates fail to speak out against extremists everyone on Earth is doomed. This is just as true about The Middle East as it is about ultra-nationalists in Europe exploiting the current economic and social crises, and extremists elsewhere in the world who seem to be born of generations of people whose mindset and way of thinking is based on the artificial idealism and the surreal extremism that is caused by almost constantly playing fortuitously violent computer video games, as well as communicating over the Internet instead of in real life and even pretending to live inside virtual reality worlds! Most of these people of the Computer and Internet Age are addicted to “Virtual Reality Think” and have very weak social skills and are desensitized to extreme violence. They are generally intolerant, lack compassion and have trouble understanding why it is that in the real world one cannot just wipe out every ‘enemy’ and every person who causes the slightest annoyance or discomfort! They are unable to understand why real solutions to real problems in the real world are going to be imperfect, and as such require both willingness and even the desire to compromise and to tolerate differences in a relatively peaceful manner.
Yes, it’s that scary! The world is more and more in the hands of generations of people who grew up surrounded by computers, video games and the Internet, and who can easily become exceedingly dangerous once they mix extremist agendas with such modern technological means of communications and networking, through which it has become all too easy to sell preposterous myths and dangerously unrealistic expectations and ideals.
So, no matter how you look at the situation today; the need for peace in the Middle East is so urgent and so important that any failure to convey this awareness is, in of itself, going to give more power to the extremists who wish to convince young minds that peace is impossible and that the enemy can and will eventually be obliterated! Nothing could be further from the truth! Violent conflict between peoples will bring nothing but further senseless horrors and will push the whole world into that final abyss of total destruction and death.
What I wonder is this: Is anyone intelligent and influential enough really listening to this? And will they not see for themselves how right I am when I say that we just don’t have any time left to wait another year or more?!?

The Global Economic & Financial Crisis; Everything Is Interconnected.

2009-02-01T08:45:00.000-08:00

Solving Our Crises Requires “New” Thinking.

By Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher.

"Problems cannot be solved at the same level of consciousness that created them." -- Albert Einstein

The World Economic Forum in Davos 2009 was a total failure! Instead of the brightest and best qualified minds telling the whole world what the real situation is, what the real causes of the crises are, and what the obvious solutions must be, we had one mediocre minded technocrat after another detailing information that lower middle class and poor people, as well as a very few formerly rich people, already know, all too well! Where are the fresh new ideas, where are the true intellectuals, the contemporary geniuses, Einsteins, Gandhis, Karl Poppers and others of the world?? I cannot accept the idea that the world today is devoid of such great, creative, innovative and deeply perceptive thinkers! Are they being suppressed and silenced?? And if so, by whom??

I turn on the TV and watch CNN, BBC, ABC, CBS, SKY, etc., news, news and more news! And all I see are images of throngs of very frustrated, disillusioned and desperate workers and students in France, the UK, throughout Europe and the US and elsewhere sounding off the naïve mantra of radical revolution and failed political ideologies! I hear calls by masses of apparently superficially educated neo-Marxists demanding the resignation of governments, the defeat of Capitalist enterprises and institutions and the rise of totally unrealistic systems of governance and economy! At the same time I see a glimmer of real hope in Washington, as an intellectual man takes the oath of the office of The Presidency of The United States, and seems to fully understand the real causes and the real solutions to this most urgent and dangerous global set of crises! Unfortunately, I also see a Middle East on the brink of total disaster, which would surely engulf the rest of the World, and a link between events there and the global financial and economic crises.

At this point I find it necessary to disabuse you, the reader, of the notion that this article will also end up being just another well-intended failure to deliver sound advice, valid answers, and real solutions. It will not. This particular global financial and economic crisis, which can easily turn into a catastrophic global security meltdown, has its roots in systemic failures that are interlinked and deeply connected, that are socio-political and socio-economic, and which require a sophisticated set of both political and financial solutions, as well as the ability of responsible political leaders able to bring the public sector and the private sector to the negotiating tables and to hammer out truly sensible, intelligent, wise, long-term solutions, as well as immediate remedies requiring strong government intervention and massive infrastructural works and an overhaul of wasteful antiquated and environmentally unsound technologies, consumer productions and business practices! Again, let there be no mistake about it; for governments to be able to deliver urgently needed results, public trust and confidence in both the public and private sector must be restored, and that cannot happen without also strengthening Democratic and Pro-Social and Pro-Individual Freedoms, Liberties and Rights! For even as the masses rightfully sense that things are not right, they are generally mal-informed, deliberately so by political opportunists from both extremes (Right and Left), about the real causes and the real solution to the interlinked (connected) local, national and global crises we all face! It is exactly at a time like this that we need stronger voices of Universal reason and Humanistic wisdom, of true moderation and responsibly progressive liberal political orientation. Only when the masses of the people understand that the wealthy few cannot be violently overthrown or destroyed and the wealthy few understand that they need to share more of the world’s wealth and help restore public confidence in both government and the private sector, and that that can only happen if there are bright minded intellectual heroes who are afforded by the privately-controlled mass media a greater voice, only then will we be successful in diminishing the voices of extremism, of ultra-nationalism, of economically unsound protectionism, of religious intolerance, of racism, ageism and other chauvinistic and barbaric voices, that for too long have managed to gain public credence on account of a sickly mass media that feeds on extremism, sensationalism and vanities galore!

It needs to be said that the very first step to global financial and socio-economic (thus political and security) stability must surely involve a mass media willing to give much more of a voice and podium for those true intellectuals, some of whom are self-educated, who understand just how complex things really are and just how multi-disciplinary-minded one must be in order to see through the complexity the light at the end of the tunnel, the light of greater reason and understanding that shines brightly and reveals the true solutions, which are themselves based on an understanding of the interconnectivity, interdependence, and correlation of things that otherwise seem, to average mediocre minds, totally unrelated and unconnected! As long as the general public is distracted and divided by illusions of get-rich-quick schemes, or the false hope offered by extremists who sell intolerance and who get way too much media attention, the general public will not pay attention to those who offer real solutions to real problems and will not pressure their governments and leaders to take all the action urgently needed.

Capitalism has never failed humanity at all! For what has been going on, more so these past eight years under the Bush Administration, has not been real Capitalism at all, but what should properly be identified as and called Global Mass Piracy, in which a significant number, albeit not all, of the world’s richest few have plundered and pillaged societies, wrecked havoc upon and destroyed much of the Middle Class, who are the backbone of any healthy Democratic and Capitalist Social Democratic society!!! This Global Mass Piracy, which still operates as a vast conspiracy of thuggish thieves, cannot be brought down to its knees by mere public anger and government reprimands! This Global Mass Piracy has only managed to get its way because of a combination of weakness and selfish opportunism on the part of a fear- and hate-mongering mass media and inept, technocrat-riddled, cowardly governments!

The world needs to be regularly and properly educated and informed by the mass media and by governments about the interconnectedness of things, about the real dangers of extremist ideologies, about the real nature of and benefits of true Democracy, about the fact that without Capitalism and Private Ownership there can be no Privacy Rights, Personal Liberties, Freedoms and thus no Personal or Public Security at all! Social Democracy, regardless of whether it is slightly Right-of-Center or Left-of-Center is the only viable option! Social Democracy is what insures both the rights of Private Individuals and Capitalists, as well as the rights of the greater public in general, especially the rights of properly paid and relatively protected working class people and properly educated and compensated middle class people, without whom society, Democracy and Capitalism, is doomed to fail! When moderate political forces lose, the extremists win and subsequently plunge the world into total chaos and a final catastrophe!
It does not take a genius to understand all that I have said thus far!

And once the mass media is once more on the side of reason, of wisdom and of moderation, then it will be able to help herald the news of all those massive public works projects and giant infrastructural works that will provide the kind of employment and income needed to restore the world’s economic health! And then the overhaul of big business away from manufacturing junk and antiquated transportation and energy technologies towards quality, green, environmental technologies will be possible! Yet there is one other very important change needed; and that concerns the availability of truly affordable housing, both in the suburbs and within our great city-state cities! For without relatively safe, efficient, comfortable, compact and truly affordable housing there will be no healthy and new mass of long-term home owners! It is clear as can be that over-speculation in private housing drove up the cost of housing beyond the real means of the working and middle classes, and that this also created a false economy in which millions prospered at the expense of billions, and vast fortunes of digitalized wealth were amassed at the expense of entire economic sectors and financial institutions, which have since begun crumbling down unto our own heads!

We need to do in principle much of the same things that were done by Franklin Delano Roosevelt and The New Deal, but in a fresh, new and much more sophisticated, visionary, long-term-considerate way!

Remember, it all starts with the right attitude on the part of the mass media and the governments, properly informing the general public about what are the real causes and what must now be done, and then going to the negotiating tables to negotiate with the world’s wealthiest few about the terms of not just a Global Sociological Ceasefire, but a long term Viable and Just Peace! The days of violent revolutions (not that they ever really worked) are over, but so must the days of unscientific and illogical and inhuman attitudes and conditions be over! We do not have a moment’s time left to waste: is the mass media going to do the right thing and share this understanding with the world, or is it going to ignore the voices of reason and wisdom still alive and kicking?? Perception sells the product first, and the product continues to sell if the perception has any real basis! The mass media are responsible for perceptions, and we must be responsible for the product!

AN OPEN LETTER TO MY PRESIDENT, BARACK OBAMA!

2009-01-22T04:21:00.000-08:00

What President Barack Obama Needs To Tell The Palestinians And Israelis

By Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher & Middle East Peace Analyst

It is absolutely imperative that we, The United States of America, and all the other moderate states of the world, that our leaders, make it clear to both the Israeli and Palestinian sides that there is absolutely no other option but to reach a final, truly viable and relatively just peace settlement within months and not years! If anything, the complex, disturbing and very sad and tragic events of the Gaza War demonstrate just how urgent and how dangerous this historic conflict is! Given the many obvious and not-so-obvious security concerns, regarding not only the dire realities and urgency, but which involve the overall regional situation throughout the greater Middle East and its direct and indirect impact on the security and stability of the entire world, peace can no longer be postponed indefinitely. Peace must not be held hostage to senseless nuances and antiquated notions on the part of either side nor should the need for peace be perpetually ignored and avoided on account of a systemic failure of the international community to make the urgency clear to everybody, or the failure of the Israeli and Palestinian authorities and leaders to properly inform their constituents about what is really at stake here! Any relatively intelligent and knowledgeable person, especially anyone with a serious background in security issues, understands all too well that the time is already long overdue for a peace of the brave and wise, within months, if not sooner!

1967: A Non-Starter

President Obama needs to make it clear to The Palestinians and to the relatively moderate Arab nations most concerned, that the idea of Israel withdrawing to the pre-1967 borders has already, long ago, been shown to be a total and absolute non-starter for any realistic chance of a peace agreement! The Oslo Agreements and all subsequent agreements that were reached before the Camp David negotiations between Prime Minister Ehud Barack and Chairman Yasser Arafat, under the auspices of President Clinton, in 2000, make it perfectly clear that Israel, for very specific and understandable reasons, both logical and hypothetical, cannot agree to withdrawing to borders that existed prior to 1968. Obviously no Israeli political leader would survive long enough to deliver any such 1967-type agreement, such as the one proposed by Saudi Arabia lately, for that would mean an Israel that would actually have no strategic parity with its neighbors should they ever default on any so-called peace treaty, peace settlement agreement!
In fact, it would cause a more dangerous situation to arise, which would easily turn into the very kind of Global Security Meltdown and Final World War conflagration we currently risk facing. True deterrence, in effect prevention of total disaster, is contingent on The Palestinians accepting a situation that does not involve Israel withdrawing exactly to the pre-1968 borders and lines of demarcation. That said, what Oslo and Madrid and all subsequent understandings have basically suggested and offered is a viable, lasting, and relatively just peace involving almost everything that the Saudi Plan would entail, with some very clear exceptions, that, I must stress once more, are totally non-negotiable by any realistic Israeli leader! Most of the issue revolves around the special status of Jerusalem, which in a certain sense and manner will have to remain almost entirely united and part of Israel, with obvious exception to The Old Muslim Quarter, which would itself gain a special, unique, and rather seemingly complex status under a joint Palestinian-Jordanian authority, and which would still be part of a very complex Intra-National and International agreement and arrangement. And there are other relatively minor territories and issues that collectively are major factors in establishing the kind of viable and logically sensible peace arrangement and agreement, whose details I shall not be able to specify in this relatively brief essay.

Further Postponement of Peace: Too Great a Peril To Israel, The Palestinians and World Peace and Stability Itself

President Barack Obama needs to use his superb communication skills to make it perfectly clear to the Israeli side that, provided the Palestinians also understand that any 1967-type border situation is a total non-starter, further avoidance of the urgent and dire need for a truly viable, relatively just and lasting peace, even if it involves a special set of sub-agreements and subsequent creation of special diplomatic enclaves on both sides for both sides, is tantamount to seriously risking a complex chain of destructive events that would easily lead to a Final Most Horrific Global Security Meltdown and a World War which would not be worth surviving and whose survivors would be very few, if any and who would end up dying shortly thereafter, in the most horrific circumstances! President Obama must make it clear that the further mere perception of Israeli intransigence and significant risk of further extremely violent conflict, regardless of any strategic justification, is rapidly bringing us closer to the brink of total destruction and doom. Israel needs, more than ever, a relatively responsible Palestinian government authority, in charge of a viable Palestinian State, along The Two State Oslo-type solution already agreed to in theory by both sides in previous years, as soon as humanly possible. Not only are we all, the whole world, being held hostage to this failure of the sides to make it clear to their own constituent populations (and to the leaders themselves) that the actual situation risks much more than their direct peace, but the ever-increasing sense of desperation, frustration and subsequent extremist tendencies are beginning to create a situation whereby reaching such an urgently needed peace settlement will become impossible and thus disaster, not just regionally but globally, will become no longer just a possibility but an absolute certainty! Anyone fairly educated and properly informed about this otherwise senseless and tragic conflict, can easily appreciate and understand how much of a disaster it would be if Egypt alone would give up on its tentative peace with Israel and turn into another front for the type of mindset that is prevalent at the top of the current Iranian extreme leadership in Tehran! It should be perfectly clear to those directly involved in making the kind of hard decisions needed that the Gaza War was rapidly turning into a very dangerous spark that would have eventually ignited the entire region, especially posing a threat to the stability of key strategic allies of America and of relative peace, such as Egypt and Jordan, to mention the most important two! Israel has no right to hold the rest of the world hostage to its own internal squabbles and it needs to get its own population majority solidly behind any realistic agreement that would deliver the kind of viable solution towards real peace.

President Barack Obama Can Make It Happen; He’s Probably The Last Chance Hope!

To avoid the kind of tainted situation that has plagued all previous American Presidents involved in trying to bring a lasting peace to The Middle East, between Israel and her neighbors, President Barack Obama must not risk the slightest impression and misperception that we can still wait, if need be, another year or two for the relatively moderate Palestinian Authority and The Israeli government to reach a peaceful settlement agreement! Logic dictates that if there really is any realistic solution to this most urgent and dangerous of conflicts then it can be arrived at within weeks, provided that all parties involved face up to the logical facts as they presently stand! There is absolutely no way President Obama would remain credible enough if he were to get entangled in the kind of on-again, off-again kabuki theatre antics that plagued President Bush! President Barack Obama must use every reasonable tool at his disposal, even if it means risking seeming to be a bit of an alarmist, to get American and world public opinion to fully support the need for the successful and relatively immediate brokering of The Two State Solution envisioned at Oslo and in most tentative agreements arrived at since! Timing is crucial here and any failure to act on time, any failure to exploit the freshness of the moment, will likely risk making the same kind of mass perception and reaction that could easily undo everything! This is not the time to act on the basis of being overly cautious or too impatient! As far I can sense and the way I really see it, based on what I consider to be a very realistic understanding of what is really involved, a meaningful and lasting peace can be arrived at within two to three months, max! NOW is the time to launch a Final Marathon Effort in pursuit of a peace whose benefits would far outweigh any so-called sacrifices that both sides would have to make! NOW is the time to explain, not just to The Palestinians and Arabs and The Israelis, but to the whole world, just what needs to be done, should be done and just what kind of real disaster would easily happen if we do not DO IT ASAP!
The “Yes We Can” mantra of The Obama Presidential Election's Campaign must be turned into the “YES WE MUST” mantra of The Obama Middle East Peace Mission! Another Gaza War, or another Lebanon War over this otherwise senseless and absolutely tragic conflict would kill the chances for peace indefinitely! And INDEFINITELY is TIME we never really had. President Obama, if you’re listening: I know you have what it takes to make this work; TIME TO DO IT NOW!

MY PREDICTION WAS RIGHT!!! Mars has life!

2009-01-14T20:45:00.000-08:00

THE FOLLOWING IS A REPOST OF A PREVIOUS, EARLIER BLOG-POST, NOTICE THE PART IN BOLD LETTERS!!! MY PREDICTION WAS RIGHT!!!

In some ways 2008 was a year of unprecedented things and overall change towards better times ahead, in other ways it was a year of disappointments and shortcomings!
For me and the world!

The election of Senator Barack Obama to be the next, the 44th, President of The United States of America, was something I was absolute right about! As well as predicting his choice for V.P.: Senator Joe Biden, whom I consider my favorite choice! I was also right about the severe economic crisis, and the fact that we are heading into a Mini-Depression that could, if not dealth with properly, become a Final Economic Collapse, which would obviously lead to a Final Global Geo-Political and Military Mega-Conflict and Total Disaster! I was right about NASA and ESA and other Space Exploration entities finding significant evidence in favor of there being Life elsewhere and in many places throughout The Known Universe! Finding actual frozen Water (H2O)on Mars, finding vast amounts of complex sugars (Carbon-based chemical building blocks of life) throughout parts of our own Galaxy, finding Exo-Planets in great abundancy, and a dramatic increas, once more, in reported UFO spottings, all of which indicates that those who think Life is the exception are simply put: DEAD WRONG! The Known Universe seems to be teaming with Life!

Here is what I foresee for 2009 (the remainder of 5769):

1. Obama's first months of Presidency will be full of sensational near-disasters for him politically, full of controversy, but he will weather it all out magnificently and his public popularity poll rating will remain high!

2. Due to super-vigorous, proper and wise actions taken by The Obama Administration and The E.U. the Global Economic Crisis will begin to come to an end by June, 2009! That said, this good news will not mean much to all those individuals, couples and families who will end up losing almost everything. It will take another 2 years to undo much of the immediate damage caused by Housing Mortgage and Banking Crisis! There will be a significant increase in the Jobless and Homelessness rates and numbers in much of the post-Industrial World!

3. George Soros will convene a major International Summit and Symposia comprised of world leaders in business, government and finance, as well as including the participation of NGOs and private individuals concerned about a wide array of related issues, from Socio-Economic and Investment Ethics to Alternative Energies and Pro-Ecological Businesses. The Summit will include a brief appearance by President Obama. It will take place in Switzerland, as an extension of The Annual Davos Summit. Some major reports will be published and some serious initiatives will be agreed to!

4. Israel and much of The Arab World and the broader Islamic World, excluding Iran and a few other nations, will begin to end their most volatile conflict, as a comprehensive Peace Settlement is reached between Israel and The Palestinian Authority, and between Israel and Syria and Israel and Lebanon! This will take place in late June or by mid-July.

5. The first solid scientific and publically announced evidence for Life Beyond Earth or even a Non-Terrestrial Intelligence will be announced by the end of 2009! And either in late 2009 or early 2010 President Obama will announce some incredibly wonderful new joint NASA-ESA Space Exploration and Space Technologies initiatives and programs! Including the first manned landing on The Moon since the 70s, by six US and EU astronauts, who will set up the first phase construction of a permanent manned Moonbase, the first phase of the construction of a mechanism to protect Earth from threats from Outer space, and a joint Mission to Mars by 2012!

(Jean-Pierre is PROVEN RIGHT AGAIN! I predicted that 2009 will be the year we confirm the existence of Life Beyond Earth! >> SEE www.nasa.gov and latest news on Mars!!!)
) !!!

6. New, powerful and also affordable therapies and treatments and campaigns against AIDS and other STDs and other Major Public Health Concerns will be announced in 2009!

7. A totally new, responsibly progressive liberal Adult Sexual Movement will become popular throughout Europe and The Americas and elsewhere, but will be banned in China, Russia, and India. It will incorporate many of the best aspects of The Hippie Era, The Beatnik Era and post-Marxist-Communalism!

8. President Obama will announce the establishment of a New United Nations Super-Hi-Tech, Ultra-Compact (relative small units), Surgically-Pin-Point-Accurate Strike-Force against Terrorist Groups, Pirates and Human Traffickers/Slavemasters! Fidel Castro, Ahmadinejad and most of al-Qaeda and The Taliban will be gone! Pakistan will split into two distinct parts; one pro-West and pro-Peace, the other (bordering Afghanistan) the opposite! Afghanistan will also split, with the Pakistani-bordering side becoming part of a new psedo-nation that will not be recognized by any of the other nations of world!

NOW HEAR THIS! More Than 79% Chance That The Yellowstone Cauldron Will Erupt As A Supervolcano Within The Next 30 To 60 Days!

2009-01-03T09:34:00.000-08:00

January 3, 2009, London, England - The Original New York City Free Advice Man, Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, has had a futureseeing experience, an intuitive sense of a near-future event, in which he senses that The Yellowstone Cauldron has more than a 79% chance of becoming the next Supervolcano within the next 30 to 60 days! The consequences of this event would be cataclysmic for hundreds of millions of people, and yet could also bring about a new paradigm of opportunities for world peace and prosperity!

If nothing of this happens it will not mean that it will not happen sometime later on in the realtively not-to-distant future.

President-Elect Barack H. Obama has been briefed about this and has already put together a mega-crisis management team to deal with its aftermath (this is pure conjecture on the part of The Free Advice Man).

According to The Free Advice Man the melting of glaciers and rising levels of freshwater, subsequent reduction of saltiness in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, is causing Tidal factors that change the sources of pressure on Earth's floating Crust and tektonic plates' movement, which dis-settles vulnerable places like Yellowstone!

North Americans from Alaska to Northern Mexico, from the West Coast to the American Heartland of The Mid-West should seriously consider moving to the East Coast. Those who can afford to move to Europe should consider doing so. The world is about to change in ways no one can fully fathom!

Special Disclaimer! There is only an 80% chance of this all happening so do not panic the instant you read this and do your own research (key words: Yellowstone, Seismic Activity, Supervolcano, Cauldron).

Roseanne Barr Is Totally Nuts! Calling Israel a Nazi State is Insane!

2009-01-02T15:19:00.000-08:00

Israel may not be a perfect nation, and in many ways it has not been allowed to exist in normal circumstances, by any means, but for Roseanne Barr to call it a Nazi State shows just how little she knows about or understands the dire circumstances that face Israel every single moment! She compared Hamas to two rival and historic L.A. gangs, which is not only offensive to those particular gangs, but is totally absurd! The two gangs in question never teach children to strap on explosives and commit murderous suicidal terrorist attacks, they do not launch missiles into Beverly Hills or into Hollywood, and they certainly do not call for the destruction of Hollywood/Beverly Hills and the annihilation of famous movie stars and celebrities! Hamas hides behind relatively innocent men, women and children, which includes most Gaza Palestinian Arabs, and then launches indiscriminate missile attacks into Israel, even though Israel no longer occupies Gaza! Hamas teaches poor and relatively uneducated people, even young children and young adults, to do the most inhuman thing: to commit suicide attacks! And Hamas, which is serving the interests of fanatic pseudo-Islamic extremists and not the interests of relatively peaceful Palestinian Sunnite-majority Muslims, has attempted to create a situation that, had Israel not acted on time, would certainly have caused even greater numbers of innocent casualties! When Roseanne Barr, who uses her Jewish ancestry to try to give legitimacy to her ill-advised and misinformed opinions, calls Israel a Nazi State, she not only seriously harms efforts at creating a long-term, viable peace in the region, but she endangers the security and safety of millions of people all over the world, Jewish and otherwise, who understand that there is no room for legitimizing terrorism. My reason for writing this is because Wikipedia's entry on this issue is too brief and relatively sterile, compared to the seriousness of the controversy at hand. Celebrities, especially Jewish celebrities, have all the right to criticize excessive actions taken by Israel, but to use their status to help re-enforce public misconceptions should not be met with silence on the part of responsible intellectuals, whether they be Palestinians, Israelis, Jews or Muslims. Wikipedia has a responsibility to report facts and that includes reactions from alternate and opposing sources.

Corruption From Alaska To Illinois! Why We Should Not Be Surprised.

2008-10-11T07:21:00.000-07:00

Alternate Title: The Real Bob Roberts vs. The Real John Doe!

On the one hand we have Governor Palin, McCain's V.P. running-mate, found guilty of unethical practices concerning the treatment of an Alaska State official or officer. On the other hand we have the Tony Rezko Affair, which involves Senator Obama in a relatively minor and benign way, that simply shows how corrupt people try to buy our public officials. But let's be real! In order to become a successful politician in America you must risk rubbing shoulders with corrupt businesspersons, especially political fundraisers who are also wealthy real-estate developers and investors! It takes a dung-heap-load of money to get the publicity you need to have a realistic chance of becoming an elected official, especially in big cities like New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, Philadelphia, Miami, Dallas and Washington, D.C.! That said, should we not be concerned about double-standards and ethics no matter which side of the political fence we're on?? Of course we should, but we must also temper and moderate our own stances based on a healthy shades-of-grey attitude that takes into account the actual degree of corruption and illegality. And on that account the actions of Governor Palin are actually much worse than the actions of Senator Obama! Why? Simple! Governor McPalin (on purpose) threatened the welfare of a public servant, while Obama, typical of almost all politicians in major American cities (City States for that matter), accepted financial support and benefit from a man who he probably knew was of questionable character, but I have no doubt that if we had a Special National Witch-Hunt and related Congressional Hearings we would discover that virtually 80% to 90% of all Members of Congress and Senators have either knowingly or unwittingly accepted support from people just as corrupt! So, should we then suspend our National Elections, go through twenty years of devastating "House Cleaning", ages-worth of Investigations, Indictments, Hearings, Trials, allow the Military to set up an Emergency Federal Government supposedly void of partisan politics (yeah, right! Like we can trust every single General!) and, in the meantime see our entire nation become the largest Third World country on Earth!!! Absolutely not! Of course, if we could be sure that all actions in the name of The Law were truly in the interest of every Average American, every John & Jane Doe, and truly supportive of the broadest intent and meaning implied by Our Great Constitution, and if we could have a Care-Taker Government made up of Real People, mostly poor but educated academics, intellectuals, artists, honorably discharged veterans and those roughly 60% of those Americans who are patriotic, non-corrupt firemen, police officers and emergency response-persons, then I'd say LET'S DO IT! But that just ain't going to happen! Oh, and what about giving in to Ralph Nader, since he is generally right about corruption and abuse of public office and government power, but is so wrong on many fundamental security issues?? The question holds the answer to that one! The answer is simply this: Ralph Nader would totally ruin America, in spite of his best intentions! No. The answer is to hold these elections and to trust that most Americans will vote based on a realistic understanding and assessment of the significant differences between the McCain-Palin Changeless Status Quo Pseudo-Republican Ticket and the Obama-Biden Real Change But We're-No-Angels Democratic Government Reform Ticket!
Now, for those of who you have any doubts about Obama's limited and relatively benign association with Tony Rezko, just take into consideration these apparent (probable or plausible) facts (Source Wikipedia NGU):

1. In 1990, after Barack Obama was elected president of the Harvard Law Review, Tony Rezko's Rezmar Corp. offered him a job, but, without hesitation, Obama turned the job offer down (did not take the job). Obama did end up taking a low-level job with law firm Davis, Miner, Barnhill & Galland,[27] which primarily worked civil rights cases, but also represented Tony Rezko's Rezmar and helped the company get more than $43 million in government funding and whose former senior partner, Allison S. Davis, later went into business with Rezko and, in 2003, was appointed to Illinois State Board of Investment by Governor Blagojevich at Rezko's request.
2. On July 31, 1995 the first ever political contributions to Obama were $300 from a lawyer, a $5,000 loan from a car dealer, and $2,000 from two food companies owned by Rezko.
3. Starting in 2003, Rezko was one of the people on Obama's U.S. Senate campaign finance committee, which raised more than $14 million. Rezko threw an early fundraiser for Obama, which Chicago Tribune reporter David Mendell and claims was instrumental in providing Obama with seed money for his U.S. Senate race. Obama has since identified over $250,000 in campaign contributions to various Obama campaigns as coming from Rezko or close associates, and has claimed to have donated almost two thirds of that amount to unspecified nonprofit groups.
4. In 2005 Obama purchased a new home in the Kenwood District of Chicago for $1.65 million (which was $300,000 below the asking price but represented the highest offer on the property) on the same day that Rezko's wife, Rita Rezko, purchased the adjoining empty lot from the same sellers for the full asking price. Obama acknowledged bringing his interest in the property to Rezko's attention, but denied any coordination of offers. According to Obama, while the properties had originally been a single property, the previous owners decided to sell the land as two separate lots, but made it a condition of the sales that they be closed on the same date. Obama also claimed that the properties had been on the market for months, that his offer was the best of two bids, and that Ms. Rezko's bid was matched by another offer, also of $625,000, so that she could not have purchased the property for less. Obama's description of the purchase was later confirmed by the previous owner of the house.
5. After it had been reported in 2006 that Rezko was under federal investigation for influence-peddling, Obama purchased a 10 foot (3.0 m) wide strip of Ms. Rezko's property for $104,500, $60,000 above the assessed value. According to Chicago Sun-Times columnist, Mark Brown, "Rezko definitely did Obama a favor by selling him the 10-foot strip of land, making his own parcel less attractive for development."Obama acknowledges that the exchange may have created the appearance of impropriety, and stated "I consider this a mistake on my part and I regret it." On December 28, 2006, Ms. Rezko sold the property to a company owned by her husband's former business attorney. That sale of $575,000, combined with the earlier $104,500 sale to the Obamas, amounted to a net profit of $54,500 over her original purchase, less $14,000 for a fence along the property line and other expenses. In October 2007, the new owners put the still vacant land up for sale again, this time for $1.5 million.
6. In June 2007, the Sun-Times published a story about letters Obama had written in 1997 to city and state officials in support of a low-income senior citizen development project headed by Rezko and partner Allison Davis. The project received more than $14 million in taxpayer funds, including $885,000 in development fees for Rezko and Davis. Of Obama's letters in support of the Cottage View Terrace apartments development, Obama spokesman Bill Burton said, "This wasn't done as a favor for anyone, it was done in the interests of the people in the community who have benefited from the project. I don't know that anyone specifically asked him to write this letter nine years ago. There was a consensus in the community about the positive impact the project would make and Obama supported it because it was going to help people in his district." Rezko's attorney responded that "Mr. Rezko never spoke with, nor sought a letter from, Senator Obama in connection with that project.
7. In the South Carolina Democratic Party presidential debate on January 21, 2008, Senator Hillary Clinton said that Obama had represented Rezko, who she referred to as a slum landlord. Obama responded that he had never represented Rezko and had done only about five hours work, indirectly, for Rezko's firm (WHICH IS THE TRUTH AND PROVES OBAMA RIGHT). Within days of the debate, a photo of Rezko posing with Bill and Hillary Clinton surfaced. When asked about the photo Hillary Clinton commented "I probably have taken hundreds of thousands of pictures. I wouldn’t know him if he walked in the door."

Fine! Obama benefited from Tony Rezko's corruption, and at worst is probably only as guilty of corruption as over 400 Republican politicians and over 400 Democratic politicians in Chicago, Illinois!!! What is certain is that no one was killed or threatened on account of Obama's association with Rezko! And the Chicago Corrupt Politics story cuts across party lines and involves almost everyone from both major political parties in Illinois! Whereas the Palin Case involves abuse of Executive Power and evidence of corruption of Public Authority! And the Palin Case is about a serious violation of ethics that only benefited the Pseudo-Republican side!

Actually, I would dare argue that when compared to the Tens of Billions of Dollars, the Massive Amounts of Money, that have not been accounted for under The Bush Administration, especially vis-a-vis the Fiasco in Iraq, involving serious violations of law concerning the awarding of Government Contracts, which has cost us dearly in terms of both the irreplaceable lives lost and tax-payer's money, with the typical local politics financial scheming (corruption), involving only tens of millions of dollars at most, that goes on all the time (which should stop), the efforts to harm Obama's campaign are despicable and much more unethical, by far, than anything he may have benefited from politically.

Clearly the Pseudo-Republicans, far wealthier than most Democratic politicians, think it is alright to steal from the majority of poor and faltering middle class, working Americans, by bad policies that allow wealthy business-people to exploit and abuse and underpay workers, poor and lower income middle class people, by swindling taxpayers of Tens of Billions of dollars into schemes that, in the name of this war or that security measure, tend to fill the deep pockets of their political financial backers! But the minute an Average Working-class American turned Community Activist, Politician and Elected Public Servant, in order to actually be able to win an election against his rich and rich--people-financed Pseudo-Republican Opponent, so as to later truly poor and working class people in his community, accepts money or other support from anyone, they, the Pseudo-Republicans, yell 'High Treason & Murder'!!! Well, if you're a Working Class American you should find these Pseudo-Republican efforts to blame the victim while beating-up the victim double-offensive and deeply insulting! There is no sense at all in voting for the Big Thief who steals your house against the Small Thief who steals the Big Thief's money and wants to share the loot with you!!! It's that simple! Don't vote for those BIG THUGS WHO LIE BIG against those small creeps who lie little! Vote for Robin-Hood and not for Scrooge!

You know what: this whole situation is almost exactly like "Meet John Doe" the 1941movie directed and produced by Frank Capra, starring Gary Cooper (love his acting) and Barbara Stanwick! Really! Watch it! And then also watch "Bob Roberts" written/directed/starring Tim Robbins (really love that guy).

How To Survive The Global Credit Crunch Banking Crisis

2008-10-09T04:29:00.000-07:00

By Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, The Free Advice Man

First of all, a WARNING!

The ideas I provide herein are primarily directed at people ages 40 and up, but may also benefit people between 18 and 39. Some of these ideas are strictly meant for adults, and are not suitable for minors. That said, this is a worded article, without graphics or pictures.

Foreword

At the time of this writing (October 11, 2008) the world financial crisis is spreading fast and wide, and it is eating up the savings and wiping out the security of countless tens of millions, even hundreds of millions, of Americans and Europeans, not to mention others around the world! Even if any overdue government intervention manages to slow down the escalation of this global financial fire-storm, even if such intervention manages to halt further disaster, millions of adults in their late 30s, 40s and older, especially those who were hoping to be able to retire in a few years, will end up in very dire circumstances! That is, unless they manage to get the kind of relatively wise advice that I am offering right here, right now!

We can argue till we are blue in our faces about who and what is exactly to blame for this very dangerous and painful situation, but the fact of the matter is that if you want to survive you are going to have to think and behave differently, because in a sense the problem was also caused by the cumulative effect of all those who wanted to get rich quick and/or make easy money, and who took privacy too far!

SIX PRACTICAL IDEAS ON HOW TO SURVIVE THESE VERY HARD TIMES
(Mind you: these ideas are for people living in North America and Europe)

1. Perhaps the single most intelligent and wise thing you can do is share living space and expenses with other adults who are also at risk of becoming homeless! But this idea works best if there is total intimacy between all adults living together. For example; a couple who can no longer afford the house they were living in find another couple in the same situation, who they find mentally and physically compatible, and with whom they are willing/desiring total intimacy with! The two couples find a small apartment with one fairly large bedroom and in order to cut on winter heating costs they sleep together in one King-size bed or two smaller beds put together! Of course this level of intimacy can only work if there is a mutual attraction and a mature, sharing, non-jealous, non-possessive attitude between all four persons. Ideally the couples should be bi or bi-tolerant. In this kind of intimacy it is possible to share food costs and other expenses much more effectively, thereby reducing overall costs and actually having the benefits of a relatively healthy and exciting six life! This kind of foursome relationship, call it a “closed-circle poly-amorous relationship”, requires safe-six practices (until such time as it can be considered safe to dispense of the use of prophylactics, etc.) and a mutuality of sharing that is truly void of any possibility of cheating and disloyalty! This kind of relationship is usually harder for men to accept, especially given their insecurities about women and their natural fear of other men, but if there is a total bi attraction between all persons then this can work to reduce costs by as much as 40% or more! In terms of car-pooling, buying food at wholesale prices in bulk, cooking rice and beans, sharing heat, space and pleasures, this is really a win-win idea! This kind of group living is also suitable for hetero swingers, but not as secure. Obviously sharing such relatively small spaces with people you are not attracted to is virtually impossible and potentially dangerous! A closed circle foursome can be a very safe way to live, even in terms of STDs, provided proper caution is taken at the beginning. Once the economy is relatively stable and sound again, then this kind of foursome relationship can also be beneficial in terms of acquiring serious property (a house big enough for more luxurious living).

2. Another idea, related to the first one, is forming a Group House situation, with a whole bunch of other adults who share almost identical political or religious views and life-styles! Needless to say, you will need to have a very intelligent set of House Rules, Regulations and Responsibilities List (printed and posted for all to see and abide by). Such a List must be created at the very first meeting to establish such a Group House, and everyone should have equal, open, democratic say in what will be on the List. Also, there should be a kind of mutual agreement on what I would call In-House Emergency Sponsorship for any individual or couple who unexpectedly lose their source of income, until they find another source. And there should be realistic limits to how far things can go, even in terms of Emergency Sponsorship. It is very important in such a Group House situation that all involved agree to furnish full documentation as to their actual legal identity and status and agree to have their personal and professional references checked! The last thing one wants is to come home and find out that someone broke into their room and stole stuff. Which is why it is also advisable to consider placing a cheap CCTV system in the common areas and hallways of the house, which may seem a bit expensive (for around $400 this can be solved) but is worth the added security!

3. When really hard times hit it is a very good idea to be willing to go to restaurants and food shops and find out if the manager or owner would be willing to give you some Food help, made up of end-of-day food items that would end up being thrown out or destroyed, so that you can then spend less cash on food! After all, you may need the cash for other things, including the rent, transportation and basic hygiene.

4. A group of families and/or childless couples can create a Group Discount Food-buying Cooperative Alliance! Imagine being able to put together a shopping list of food items for several dozen people and then going out with a small van and negotiating with retailers and/or wholesalers to be able to buy food in large bulk quantities at a lower per unit cost!
This is the general principle already in use behind COSTCO and Sam’s Club and other similar bulk discounters! Sure, the retailer or wholesaler might wonder why they have noticed fewer customers, but so what!? You have a right to create a cooperative joint food-buying scheme and do so without letting the retailers and wholesalers know.

5. If you are a single male or female in your late 30s or older and you are willing to marry up or just have a long-term relationship with someone much older then you can avoid the risk of going hungry and homeless during these hard times! The question is how flexible you are concerning the age difference (chances of someone 40 finding a wealthy 60 or 70 years old person are greater), and how attractive you can make yourself be. For this to work you should lower your expectations in terms of physical appearance and condition. If the person has a nice home, enough money and a nice temperament then that is all that matters. For this purpose there are Internet dating schemes and you can always pay close attention to your local news and changes in the status of persons.

6. Creating a Super-Tent Emergency Housing Community! Individual tents by themselves are not suitable during the cold months of winter, but imagine if you formed a group of several dozen couple, or families and decided to purchase a large Circus Tent or even just a large Outdoor Events Tent! And then you cover the ground with wood crate suspenders (the hollow wood-framed things used by forklifts to lift stuff), on top of which are placed sheets of artificial plastic grass or simple water-proof nylon coverings. You then set up all the individual tents within this larger group tent and in the middle of the large group tent (Circus Tent) you place an empty steel barrel that will be used to burn heating logs! In even colder climates you might want to double the concept! A Large Circus Tent in which several smaller Event Tents are erected, within which individual tents are erected! And you contract with a portable potty (toilet) company and a company to provide clean drinking water in large volume bottles! Also, you make a deal with a local church or other religious establishment or even a motel to have a shower room available! You can organize and finance this with the help of local not-for-profit organizations, local government and social activist groups. The local city council should be willing to provide a publicly owned space for this purpose, preferably one that is fenced-in and with a volunteer group to insure that only legitimate tenants come in and out! Security can best be insured by a volunteer group who would insure that tents are padlocked and that no one is threatening anyone else.

Between Extreme Capitalism and Extreme Socialism: The Missed Comfort of Lukewarm Waters.

2008-10-03T12:19:00.000-07:00

During The Cold War, from around 1946 to 1996, The United States of America and some of its West European NATO allies understood that while Capitalism is a pre-requisite to human freedom, especially the liberty of individuals, some aspects of Socialism were legitimate in insuring sufficient social cohesion and preventing too many people from ending up homeless and hungry. This was more true in Western European nations than America, but even in The United States certain social welfare programs were devised in order to insure domestic tranquility and to be able to convince potential political asylum seeking Soviets and East Europeans that as hard as life can be in the West, the freedom gained was worth the risk.

As part of the post-war deal the West sought to promote the views of relatively progressive liberal thinkers, writers, artists and entertainers, whose views were strongly opposed to all forms of Fascism, especially Nazism. This was not just about de-Nazi-fying Germany, Austria and de-Fascistifying Italy, Spain and other nations of the former Axis nations, but about a legitimate concern for free-market principles, best benefited by tolerating non-violent troublemakers, especially moderate Socialists, Social Democrats and Libertarians. However, as soon as The Soviet Union collapsed, and with it the entire Warsaw Pact, as soon as The United States emerged as the solitary global Superpower, certain elements of the Right-wing political establishments decided that those same creative and outspoken individuals, people like John Lennon, Andy Warhol, Kurt Vonnegut, Ray Bradbury, Isaac Asimov, Gore Vidal, Paul Newman (see my tribute coming soon/or above), who once served their interests in allowing for the appearance of real freedom and liberty (wherein fact the USA has had a contradictory and mixed record on its own stated principles and values)were suddenly at best mildly tolerated by those with real power and massive influence.

What is certain is that truly progressive moderates and liberals, Social Democratic Capitalist Intellectuals such as my self, have been the target of cleverly devised methods to disenfranchise, silence, ignore... (especially by the mass media...who at first were only too eager to give me a voice!)... and gradually totally undermine and eventually destroy them, given that their (my) views are highly critical of extremisms, especially Right-wing Capitalist and Left-wing Communist extremisms! After all, we could be the new Spinozas, Gandhis and Einsteins of the world! We could, if the media would dare do what is truly in the world's best interests, easily become the kind of intellectual heroes, social role models, capable of inspiring, instigating and motivating younger people to avoid joining the ranks of the extremists, to oppose all forms of extremism, and to seek to make a much better world than the one we currently find ourselves barely living in! We could be the kind of hero Philosophers, Poets and Pundits who, through our fine use of words, through our powerful use of great and deeply thought-provoking ideas and images, through our sense of future-seeing and hope, might turn young people away from seeking superficial vanities, undeserved fame and fortune, or from giving up on the world and becoming violent extremists! We might finally be able to convince young people that seeking true wisdom, greater knowledge and genuine enlightenment are just as important as seeking the means to live healthy, comfortable and exciting lives! We might be able to bring about a True Era of Lasting (hopefully Everlasting) Enlightenment,Peace and Prosperity based on legitimately Spiritual and truly Scientific Reasoning and Wisdom! An era when Unity-in-Diversity, Tolerance of Tolerant Others, and True Freedom, Liberty and Democracy reign supreme, for the benefit of all decent persons and all Free-Thinkers!

Only through Social Democracy can The United States of America work to best serve the legitimate interests of practically all Americans, from what should never be less than Lower Middle Class Working Americans to the few Truly Deserving Upper Class Inventors, Innovators, and other quintessential Geniuses! (Oh, yeah...such a I myself! Facetious sarcasm allowed. LOL! Slight element of truth.)

Till then, we must not assume that just because someone thinks they have good reason to be concerned about their relative safety and abuses of their legitimate rights, that they are necessarily exaggerating things or, worse yet, truly delusional and paranoid. One tactic mentioned in several extreme Right-wing manuals involves using very cleverly devised, hi-tech methods to cause "troublemakers", "boat-rockers", "misfits", "non-conformists" and other Responsibly Progressive Liberal Social Democrats & True Libertarians to appear to their friends as being conspiracy-theory-addicted paranoid delusional schizophrenics and potential psychopaths or sociopaths! Anyone interested in the specifics of these cleverly devised, hi-tech methods, being used right now by extreme Right-wingers all over the world, should write me in private and I will try my best to provide details and proof! Remember how right John Lennon was, after years of being the target of similar efforts to defame, disenfranchise and destroy him! As for how to tell the difference between a real victim of such sinister methods/tactics and someone who really does go too far; I'll be happy to send you my views on that too. Nevertheless, one must understand that when a specific person is being targeted for such sinister methods/tactics eventually, over time, the sum effect can be to cause a legitimate victim to actually become, little by little, a double-victim, as it gets harder and harder for that specific individual to avoid assuming things about other people, whose statements and actions might otherwise give legitimate cause for concern and reason to fear, that may or may not be true! The recent movie "Ridicule" alludes to that, and one should always take the trouble to read George Orwell's "1984" again, as it serves to remind us how far people in power are willing to go to remain in power long after any legitimate mandate, if there was a mandate to begin with!

Of course none of us who are truly sensible like having to live under the constant knowledge of, concern about and fear of powerful and influential people who are so bored, mundane, vulgar and vain that they get their kicks out of playing around with the lives of others! In case you have already begun to forget what Machiavelli's The Prince and Malthus's An Essay on the Principle of Population, or for that matter what movies like "Brazil", "Meet John Doe", "Citizen Kane", "The Matrix", "Bob Roberts", "Soylent Green", "Network" and "The Net" are really trying to warn us about!

For younger readers and older readers alike, looking for wisdom without too much of the darker side imagery; there is always my favorite book, Antoine De Saint-Exupery's The Little Prince (Le Petit Prince)!

So, between extreme Capitalism and extreme Socialism, let me and my many fancifully fantastic friends frolic in the luke-warm waters of Freedom, Liberty and Unity-in-Diversity!

FIRST DEBATE ANALYSIS FROM OVERSEAS

2008-09-28T02:42:00.000-07:00

By Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo (David Moshe), Philosopher.

I think it was a rather boring debate, but that Senator Obama did not have much choice. One has to keep in mind that the debates are almost exclusively meant for the Undecided and Swing voters, and not for the base or even those who are pretty sure about who they're voting for. Unfortunately 'race' does have a major role to play in this RACE for the 'White' House. Here you have a relatively young 'Black' man (on 'race' issues I am personally rather color-blind, as I am myself a mutt and proud of it...one factor I am happy Senator Obama shares with me)...anyway...so here you have a young African-American male having to debate a much older 'White' male, and one who could easily be many American's beloved Uncle Bob or Grandpa Henry. If Senator Obama in a direct debate were to appear as verbose and blunt as he is on the campaign trail then that could very easily backfire in what we Social Scientists (I'm a Philosopher with a strong background in Socio-Psychology) call the Subconscious Zone and in an election that is likely to be very close that kind of risk is too great to take! So Senator Obama wore kids gloves and even kept on reminding himself not to raise his voice as loud as he actually is able to, or to be too strong in rejecting Senator McCain's attempts to misrepresent Senator Obama's actual stances, past and current. One can clearly see that the next morning, out on the trail, Senator Obama was strong and sharp as ever and had no qualms of doing at a distance what would have been fatal in the proximity of a direct debate! Fatal for either or both sides! Imagine poor old McCain getting a heart-attack in a direct debate with Senator Obama, just because Obama landed a few well deserved verbal judo punches?! That would risk killing both of their chances of being President, and leave the door very open for that Ap-Paling quasi-woman Alaskan demi-Governor, whose appearances are so easily deceptive. And Senator Biden would also get the brunt of the blame for ever being a partner to Senator Obama! So, all in all, it was a very good thing that Senator Obama, especially in the very first debate, seriously refrained from letting the debate get exciting!

As for concerns over Senator Obama's debate tone on Israel; no worries there whatsoever! One must remember that there is absolutely nothing in Senator Obama's actual views and record, not even from his earliest days at Columbia or even before, that could indicate the slightest risk to U.S.-Israel relations! In fact, if you closely examine McCain's record you will find some very troubling things vis-a-vis Israel! Also, we have a double guarantee in Senator Biden as Senator Obama's V.P. running-mate. Senator Biden is one of the top ten Senators to have the highest possible favorable rating with various pro-Israel lobbies and groups! Ofcourse, Senator Obama is wise in not over-stating his support for Israel, especially given the fact that many Undecided and Swing voters are actually cold on Israel's Jewish reality, even as they tend to support Israel for their own pseudo-Christian neo-Evangelical pro-Rapture purposes! Remember that the vast majority of those so-called Christians who have given huge amounts of money to Right-wing Israeli political parties, and to violent extremist Settler Movements (MIND YOU: not all Settlers are extremists)...the vast majority of these pseudo-pro-Israel types are actually serious anti-Semites and seriously believe that all Jews who do not convert will end up in Hell and deserve the worst possible path to Hell!!! In other words, Senator Obama has to be pro-Israel but seem a bit neutral on the Jewishness of Israel! And also he has to avoid alienating the Arab-American community, many of whom have very strong mixed-up feelings about Israel and many of whom are hesitant voters! When you add the Arab-American factor and the anti-Semitic pseudo-Christian factor, then Senator Obama's debate stance was VERY WELL DEVISED and GOOD! Mind you, exactly because of the horrors of what happened months after Bush Jr. stole into office, there is an unfortunately strong under-current of mixed anti-Muslim anti-Jew anti-Arab anti-Israel sentiment prevalent in America today!! And this troubling under-current, that sometimes boils to the fore, cuts across traditional political party lines! I'd venture to say that both major parties have their significant and gradually growing share of anti-Semites! That is, anti-Israeli and anti-Arab anti-Semites! And the only real way that we are going to be able to reverse this dangerous trend is if Senator Obama wins and if we Democrats can begin to seriously undo, untangle the knots of excessive suspicion, distrust and fear that all these seven-plus Color-coded years have managed to tie us up in! Which is why I am totally convinced that a McCain victory...thank H'SH'M that this is apparently HIGHLY UNLIKELY...would spell final disaster for all humanity! Just imagine a world where America is truly the Fallen Empire that these pseudo-Republicans would have managed to create?!?! Even Europe would not be able to stand against the pressure from the emerging Economic Superpowers...what with China and Russia having such a deficit in Individual Rights, and Democratic and Humanist values! So, let's not worry about Senator Obama tip-toeing through the tulips on issues related to Israel. Let's only worry about both worrying too much and becoming complacent as we reach the final ten yards! Let's remember that given the horrendous economic and fiscal State of Our Union....no thanks to these professional pirates and unscrupulous thugs pretending to be Patriotic Republicans....this elections is ours to lose!

He currently resides in London, England and is working double-hard to convince the British Jewish communities to accept and support future President Obama (another prognostication of his: Democratic Victory '08).

The Problem of The Matti Juhani Saari’s Of The World & How To Solve It!

2008-09-24T00:09:00.000-07:00

By Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Scientific & Spiritual Philosopher.

Before my article I would like to express my most sincere condolences to all those whose lives have been shattered by this sick young person’s senseless acts of extreme violence. Having witnessed extreme violence as a young man in a war-torn region of the world, I know all too well how it feels to see life turned completely upside down. I have long dedicated much of my efforts to find ways to prevent violence, including direct violence and socio-economic violence, which, as Mahatma Gandhi correctly showed, are linked. Obviously one form of violence never truly justifies another, except when it is truly in self-defense, and one must be careful not to confuse these kind of insanities with what Partisans and fighting Jews did in response to the monstrosity of Nazism and Fascism in World War 2.

And now, my article;

Sometimes I really have to wonder whether The World is paying any real attention to those of us whose relatively critical observations and understanding of the world’s social problems might yield serious, practical solutions. And when a very sick young person, such as Matti Juhani Saari of Finland, manages to destroy so many more lives than just the ones he actually murdered point-blank, my sense of indignation and frustration compel me to write yet another one of these types of articles, in the eternal hope that my views and advice shall finally be given the kind of public policy attention they deserve.
On my part, as an independent Free-Thinker, a Spiritual & Scientific Philosopher, this is the very least I can and should do, in the sincere conviction that I am correct about my understanding and my reasoning-out solutions. After all, if prevention of these tragic horrors is possible, as I am sure it is, then it is our sincere obligation as fellow citizens of this precious little planet of ours to leave no stone unturned in our quest for a world free from the excessive fear and irrational hate that generates so many victims and victimizers!

First of all, there is no doubt about the fact that this specific type of extreme violence was until relatively recently unheard of in modern Scandinavian societies, and that something must have changed over the years in Finland, where this is the third such incident since 1989. Then again, we must also keep in mind that Scandinavia was once the prominent cultural source of Viking and Celtic cultures, which were notorious for their excessive violence! So, as we take a deeper look into this matter, we must not over-idealize Finnish, Swedish, Norwegian and Danish culture. As any Scandinavian Social Scientist or Anthropologist is likely to confirm; there is and has always been an under-current of excessively violent emotions in their societies, and it is only with the advent of Reformed Christianity and The Humanist Movement of the early 20th Century that educated Scandinavian intellectuals have worked very hard to provide the kind of social circumstances intended to reduce the risks of these troubling undercurrents.

These last two tragedies, the one perpetrated by Pekka-Eric Auvinen in Jokela, which claimed the lives of 9 persons, and this one, which has claimed the lives of 10 persons (not including the life of Saari, himself), were done by sick young men whose contempt for humanity was something they openly declared on such public Internet sites as YouTube! But why?!? What is it about life in Finland today that could be a significant factor in the sick mindset, twisted world-view and demented set of pseudo-ideals that these young men held??

A lot of extreme youth violence today, I would contend, is the result of the kind of growing severe social instability caused by a combination of the severe socio-economic insecurity suffered by their parents, combined with HIV-AIDS fear-mongering which has managed to remove a major stress-releasing venue once popular in modern Scandinavian societies: relatively easy access to pleasurable sexual relationships, especially for the parents of this young men. For in colder climates, where half of the year is lived in relative darkness and people are at risk of severe depression, sexual pleasure, in the context of warm, affectionate, socialization was actually encouraged! And when a young man is senses that his parents are not frustrated and unhappy, he is much less likely to develop anti-social thoughts and behavior. If we stop glamorizing strict monogamy, which tends be nothing more than insecurity-based possesiveness, then young people will not feel obliged to strive for some unrealistic ideal! Now, I am not at all suggesting that monogamy is wrong per se, not that anyone who is able to live in true loving monogamy should abandon what makes them feel comfortable and happy, but I am suggesting that young men and women today are getting very confused, mixed messages and there are no intellectual role models they can look up to and respect and seek to emulate! Fact is that the mass media has abandoned promoting intellectuals, especially those whose message is of unity-in-diversity, tolerance of tolerant others, liberal enjoyment of life's natural pleasures and healthy mutual consentual relations between mature persons! In that sense the mass media are much to blame for discouraging young people from being intellectually inclined!

As for this particular tragic massacre; sexual repression must surely have been a factor. In fact, one could argue that the Viking and Celtic peoples would have been even more violent and violence-ridden were it not for their sexual socialization! And no doubt the forced introduction of the sexually-inhibitive pre-Reformed early ‘Christian’ way of living, which strictly opposed the Pagan, sexually active, way of life, caused a similar increase in extreme violence! Just that we do not have the statistics from those times, and so we assume that these incidents have nothing to do with sexuality. The fact of the matter is simple; in times of socio-economic hardship, combined with excessive fears of dangerous diseases, such as HIV-AIDS, Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis and deadly Hepatitis-C, women tend to be less willing to open up sexually to men, and this kind of regressive social instability pushes people, especially men, to extremes, such that they begin to experience mental disorders, become reactionary and eventually lose their mental sanity and commit acts of excessive violence! But then, what is the real solution to preventing this chain-reaction of dangerous problems? Obviously, it would be wrong to suggest that women in society should endanger their lives by engaging in the kind of sexual activities that were not as risky in previous times. And obviously it would be counter-productive to continue the status quo of sexual repression. So? The answer is actually quite evident: we can find sophisticated, well-devised, and definitely much safer ways to provide the same old-time levels of sexual and social freedom and cohesion. For example, if governments really wanted happier, healthier and thus more humane societies all they would need to do is work with the private sector in creating facilities and venues where relatively Safe-Sex encounters would be possible! New speedy AIDS testing technologies and encouraging the use of quality condoms would go a long way to insuring that such venues would be almost entirely risk-free! But this would also mean re-introducing the culture of poly-amorous tolerance that began to exist in the late 60s to the early 80s, but without all the dangerous, senseless, careless risk-taking! After all, the fact of the matter is quite simple: because of the enormous public health threat that HIV-AIDS and other socially and sexually communicable diseases pose, including the obvious socio-economic threat, governments since the 80s have been literally ‘killing the patient in order to cure the disease’! They have been doing everything possible to discourage young people and elder persons from exactly the kind of behavior, which, if done sensibly, would actually help reduce violence in society!

As usual, a bunch of socially incompetent technocrats took the world from one extreme to another, all in the name of protecting economic interests by curtailing sexual freedom by means of mass media assisted fear-mongering! Any truly wise social architect and manager can see that they failed to consider the possibility of a middle-of-the-road approach, a truly creative and new technologies- and methodologies-based way to at once continue providing people the venues and cultural-acceptability of sexual freedom, while significantly helping to prevent and reduce the truly dangerous and destructive spread of diseases! Ah! But who stood to benefit…to profit…from such stupid, counterproductive and backfiring technocratic approaches and policies towards transmissible diseases?? Well, the answer is quite simple and obvious: both Reactionary Anti-Social Right-wing Elitists and Traditional Conservative Religionists! For these types of extremists HIV-AIDS was a ‘heaven send’ and one could even argue that there might be some measure of truth to those conspiracy theories that claim HIV-AIDS was deliberately created and/or allowed to take on epidemic proportions and become a serious public health concern! Mind you, the Reagan Administration deliberately ignored calls, even from within the Gay Homosexual community, to impose humane forms of Quarantine on individuals with AIDS, when HIV and Un-Safe Sexual Practices were not yet identified as the culprits! And all pseudo-Republican Administrations have worked with other entities to prevent the popularization of Safe-Sex methodology and practice! Why? Because sexually liberated and free societies are not excessive, junk-food, junk-product-addicted consumerist societies that ultimately only serve the interests of Reactionary Elitist Extreme Capitalists! Moderate Progressive Liberal Capitalists, including Social Democrats like myself, have been the ultimate targets of these Extreme Regressive Reactionary pseudo-Conservative Capitalists. Sure, those of us on the right side of History, those of us who truly value and respect Individual Human Rights, Freedoms and Liberties, including (obviously) natural Family Rights, will not lie about the reality of things by telling you that a Scientific, Pro-Social Responsibly Progressive Liberal way of Sexually Free Society is totally without dangers and risks! I would quesstimate that the difference between the Reactionary way and ours is that theirs ultimately causes hundreds of millions of deaths, at least, while ours only causes tens of millions at most! But the Reactionary way also leads to a significant rise in Global Security Threats and a very dangerous increase in violent conflicts! Whereas our Responsibly Progressive Liberal way actually diminishes the overall Global Security Threat and leads to a significant reduction in wars, crime and corruption! In a world of physical imperfection there is no perfect solution to anything, let alone to the ages old problem of “To Do It, or Not To Do It!”. I say, let the Happy Days and Sexual Freedom back again, but this time let’s do things sensibly, safely and soundly!

Otherwise, I fear, these sort of horrifying mass murders will become more and more common and within no time we’ll be stuck in a bottomless pit of violence and horror spiraling out of control, wondering why we didn’t heed the wise advice of Responsibly Progressive Liberal Social Democrats, such as myself!

As for better gun control programs; within reason I support that, but we must remember that where there is a strong will there is also a way! And reducing access to guns alone will not insure our safety, security and sanity!

French President Sarkozy Is Turning Out To Be Quite A Darling!

2008-09-23T04:13:00.000-07:00

by Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher.

As many of you know about me, I’m a Progressive Liberal Social Democrat, and no friend of right-wing politicians, but French President Sarkozy, true to his weird Inauguration Speech last year, keeps doing things that impress me!

Last time, it was Monsieur Le President de la Republique Sarkozy’s announcing the creation of a Mediterranean Union, especially suitable for helping resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

And now this! :

French President Nicolas Sarkozy says that ‘those responsible for the crisis that has swept global financial markets should be punished’!

He said these words as part of an acceptance speech at an award ceremony attended by U.S. and French business leaders, calling for the "truth" on the crisis to be uncovered.

"Today, millions of people across the world fear for their savings, for their apartment, for the funds they have put in banks. It is our duty to give them clear answers," he declared, and then asked, "Who is responsible for this disaster?”, followed by a strong call for action: “May those who are responsible be punished and held accountable!" All of this only hours in advance of a speech to the U.N. General Assembly.

This worst financial crisis since The Great Depression has prompted the U.S. government to request a $700 billion bailout package for Wall Street firms in order to rid them of the toxic mortgage-related debt which toppled investment bank Lehman Brothers and which threatens to plunge the world into disaster!

The bailout package has yet to be approved by Congress and has been criticized by some observers, who point out that it would be quite a travesty if the bankers who ignited this mega-crisis were not held fully responsible for the consequences of their astronomic folly.

Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson contends that his plan will result in far less damage to taxpayers than would happen if companies were left to deal with the financial damages of the crisis.

The French President’s daring comments were not received with great enthusiasm from those members of the business community in attendance, who could easily afford to pay between $1,500 to $75,000 each, just to see Monsieur Sarkozy awarded The Elie Wiesel Foundation for Humanity’s top annual award at a VIP gala event held in New York City.

DOW JONES MAY DROP OVER 800 TO 2,000 POINTS!

2008-09-14T16:04:00.000-07:00

The insolvency of Lehman Brothers provides the most daunting evidence of just how bad market fundamentals really are, and have been, for quite some time! We are now going to wittness the possible beginning of a Mini-Depression that will spread from Wall Street to much of the rest of The World! This major crisis will test the ability of governments, throughout the world, to deal with massive unemployment, abject poverty, homelessness, civil strife and worse. This dramatic drop in the value of Stocks, Bonds, Funds and Futures, will end up costing the lives of millions, possibly hundreds of millions. And all because of excessive speculation on residential housing, that has put affordable standard housing well beyond the means of most working-class poor, as well as a significant number of middle class people.

Today, September 15, 2008, will be remembered for years to come as the beginning of either a relatively short-term Mini-Depression or the last straw that broke the camels back! Tomorrow and for the next eight to ten days markets will plummet and the only thing that can prevent total disaster is a massive effort on the part of China and Russia to exploit the situation and flood America and Western Europe with loads of easy money!!! Or the U.S. and other governments using their tax-payers money to keep things floating! But that kind of intervention is very dangerous for the long-term and the only thing that can prevent Total Global Economic Collapse would be a total change in American foreign and domestic policy that would signal an end to the Disastrous Bush Doctrine, as it has come to be known. To put it bluntly; only an Obama-Biden Ticket Victory in the U.S. Presidential Elections can help restore America's global image and relations, especially in terms of its ability to sell its products, services and investment propects abroad.

I foresee an Obama-Biden Victory, and have predicted this for more than almost a year now. And it will come just in the nick of time, before everything spirals out of control into the worst possible disaster you can imagine!

If,however, McCain-Palin were able to steal the elections, that would certainly spell disaster. But Palin is likely to make too many mistakes and pull McCain down with her. And neither McCain nor Palin will do well during the debates. Senators Obama and Biden will win the debates, hands down!

You heard it here first!

Remember this: YOUR ORIGINAL NEW YORK CITY FREE ADVICE MAN is no run of the mill wannabe nobody!

Expect, after Senator Obama enters The Oval Office of The White House to take his place behind The President's desk, the world economic situation to begin to stabilize and eventually get better within the next 24 months.

We Must Do All We Can To Stop These Murderers, Assasins, Terrorists!

2008-09-13T11:24:00.000-07:00

I was not intending to write anything here today, at least nothing of this sort, but there I was busy working on my Photoblog.com Art & Other Photographs BLOG-site, enjoying the company of mostly decent people, many who share my love of life, of humanity and of peace, prosperity, tolerance of tolerant others, Unity-in-Diversity, Democracy, Freedom, Liberty, Fair Justice and what not, when I had to look up something via Yahoo! and saw the main

Breaking, Shocking Headline News from India's Capital New Delhi!!!

Sick,murderous, disgusting, cowardly fake-Muslim fanatic extremist thugs, terrorists, ....UGH!....the words I could use!....set off a number of sudden and relatively unnexpected devices of totally indiscriminate mass murder called bombs!

I, The Original New York City Free Advice Man, Philosopher of Life, of The World & The Universe, lover of all that is truly lovable, decent and affectionately human, condemn, as I always have in such times, in the most forceful way, these atrocious acts of sheer inhumanity, that do nothing to further any cause at all, but simply make the whole world more miserable, more dangerous and more desperate!

Cannot these kind of....I'd say people but then how can real human beings do such thngs?.... totally insensitive individuals and groups of totally insensitive individuals see that there is absolutely no evidence throughout all History that such cowardly and mosntrous and despicable acts have never accomplished anything meaningful, and have always backfired and caused not only immeasureable suffering for those poor victims and their families and loved, but have also caused acts of retaliation that, though often necessary, make things much, much worse for those who do these things!

Do these sick monsters realize that Islam, and Judaism and Christianity, TOTALLY FORBID SUCH VIOLENT ACTS???

There is absolutely no justification or excuse WHATSOEVER!

Only through truly Loving All G-D's Creation, All Human Beings, All Sentient Beings, Even The Non-Mammals I Say We Can Kill For Food (for food ONLY!), can we begin to find real solutions, truly peaceful ones, to our grievances and perceived injustices, real or not!

Irrational hate and fear are NEVER the way of those who are TRULY WISE!

And why would anyone in their right mind want to be UNWISE?!?

No matter what others may say, I will always make a fair, sincere effort to tell those who are today my enemies (by their own ignorant, bad semi-choices and Evil thoughts)that THAT NON-DEFENSIVE VIOLENCE IS NEVER, HAS NEVER BEEN AND WILL NEVER BE THE WAY TO SOLVE ANYTHING!

We, the Lovers of Mahatma Gandhi, Albert Einstein and Baruch Spinoza, will not allow a sick minority group of mentally ill and ignorant but very dangerous fools to have the upper hand! WE WILL FIND YOU, WE WILL BRING YOU TO JUSTICE, WE WILL DESTROY ANY OF YOU WHO AVOID BEING BROUGHT TO JUSTICE...WE WILL NEVER, EVER NEGOTIATE WITH YOU UNTIL YOU TOTALLY AND HONESTLY RENOUNCE ALL FORMS OF UNJUSTIFIED, CRIMINAL, SACRILIGIUS, UNETHICAL, IMMORAL, INHUMANE VIOLENCE!!!

Little by little, unfortunately not fast enough, the whole world is going to unite, Peace-Loving Christians, Jews, Muslims, not phoneys and fakes who keep on trying to turn the rest of us against one another....and SOON WE WILL COME AFTER THOSE OF YOU WHO DISRESPECT THE RIGHTS OF OTHERS, WHO VIOLATE G-D'S GOLDEN RULE, THE LAW OF LOVE, WHO COMMIT THESE SENSELESS MURDERS...and WE WILL NOT REST AT EASE UNTIL WE WIPE THIS SCOURGE OFF THE FACE OF THE EARTH!

To the Victims & Their Loved Ones: as ever I send my most sincere condolences and share your grief and near-utter sense of loss, and, having been a victim of such sick people myself, I continously dedicate myself to defeating these sick monsters by all justifiable and honorable means possible!

May We Not Let These Few Cause Us To Turn On One Another!

United WE Stand, Divided WE Fall!

G-D Bless The Indian Government & All Other Peace-loving Governments!

Why We Shall Win & Why They May Steal Our Victory!

Why We Shall Win & Why They May Steal Our Victory!

By Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, The Original New York City Free Advice Man.

On Tuesday, November the 4th, 2008, We Americans will turn out in huge numbers, possibly the largest numbers ever recorded, to cast our votes for the man who will become the next President of The United States of America! Millions of people, most of whom have actually suffered from the failed policies of the Bush Administration, will finally make the most crucial decision they can make, and decide whether they really want change for the better or change for the worse, whether they really want to have a government for all the people or just for an elite few, whether they really understand that Our Great Constitution has been under assault or think its just another piece of paper, whether they want a President and Vice-President who bring real benefits to everyday Americans or they are willing to give up on being citizens of "the land of the free and the home of the brave" and continue to fall for the senseless fear-mongering tactics of a bunch of political opportunists who shamelessly sell-away the jobs and the future of US Americans! Which will it be? More of the same old crap, or a bright new day in America? Will we listen to "the angels of our better nature", as Lincoln put it, or will we vote for the beginning of the end of everything we cherish by giving those who abused authority and violated Our Constitution four more years to finally render American democracy null and void?!? To be free and brave Americans or not to be free at all, that is the question!

In spite of the current mass-media-hype-fed Palin pseudo-popularity phenomena, to add to a limited-time post-Convention poll boost for McCain, the actual massive grass-roots-activist-based efforts are very promising indeed! Yes, most national polls have McCain-Palin ahead by several points in terms of the popular vote, and yes there is very good reason for us to be very concerned and not to ever assume that just because we can win, we should win, we have millions of new voters on our side and millions of previous voters too, that victory is ours! This elections is going to be very close, as I have said all along, but if we do not behave as if we are certainly going to win, if we do not take victory for granted, if we do not succumb to complacency and inaction, then when the big day arrives we will have just enough people on our side to save America and, believe it or not, The World! Because, all joking aside, this elections is not just about the freedoms and liberties of US Americans, but about our image and reputation around The World! And ever since the Bush Administration failed to properly take advantage of the world's sympathy, support and respect for US following the inhumanly monstrous attacks on US and all humanity on 9-11-2001, ever since Bush's shameful squandering of international support for US by using the attacks as an excuse for him and his buddies, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and Cheney, to neglect going after al-Qaeda and The Taliban and launch their fiasco invasion of Iraq, ever since then The World, the rest of our fellow human beings on this fragile home-planet of ours, have lost their faith and trust in America and in our ability to be a force for good in the world, to be a beacon of Democracy and Freedom, a role-model for all other nations! And the world has been boycotting American goods, American products and America itself! And, at a time when the Bush Administration has wasted hundreds of billions of our hard-worked-for tax money and neglected our schools, hospitals, roads, bridges, and most importantly the lives of most of us working-class Americans, are we really so stupid as to expect the world to stop boycotting our products, are we really do dumb as to think that the world will not continue to turn against us and towards Russia, China and India, to mention a few economic competitors?!? Are we going to reward the same people who gave us nothing but one massive failure after another, who have ruined our economy and increased our national debt beyond anything we can imagine, by allowing "George W. McCain and Georgette W. Palin" to continue misleading America down the path of total poverty, homelessness and destruction! Are we really that mad! I THINK NOT!

The polls should concern us, but hard statistics indicate that if we do all the right things, reach out to all our fellow Americans, register every single adult American out there, and continue to stay on message, and speak truth to America, then we shall win!

Until now there have been no direct debates between Senator John McCain and Senator Barack Obama, and so many of our fellow Americans, especially those who consider themselves Undecided, who tend to be Swing-Voters, who may be disgruntled Republicans and Independents, have not yet had a chance to really decided who they are goind to vote for! Fortunately, in a strange way, the number of undecided voters is very significant, and chances are very good that most of those who have not taken sides by now, will watch the debates very closely and intensely, and will have no real choice but to vote for real positive change! To vote for the Obama-Biden ticket and not for the Bush-Bush ticket in disguise! So, do not allow despair to overwhelm you and turn you away from doing all you can to reach out to your friends, family and neighbors and suggest to them that they should watch the debates really carefully!

Now, although McCain flip-flopped on his false promise to keep these elections free from mud-slinging and outright lies, we must not assume that things will get any better in terms of how far these fake Republicans will go to Swift-boat and lie about our candidates and about our platform, our agenda for positive change, change that will reduce taxes on working-class and middle-class Americans, change that will reverse the severe damages done by the pseudo-Republicans and their Bush Administration, that will reverse the severe damage done to Our American Way of Life, that will reverse the severe harm done to our domestic and foreign interests, change that will restore America's standing in the world, dramatically improve our ability to sell our quality American goods and services to the world, and which will restore longstanding friendships and alliances, the alliances we need to effectively fight the terrorists who murdered so many of our wonderful fellow Americans and friends on 9-11-2001!

Confidence is high! Americans have had enough of almost 8 long years of shameless pseudo-Republican political opportunism and fear-mongering, of shameless divisive politics, of shameless divide and conquer poor working Americans by spreading the most disgusting lies about those who make up more than 51% of America: patriotic American Democrats, and those many Independents who can know that Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz were criminally negligent when they deliberately had a policy of IGNORING OUR FBI FIELD AGENTS and their reports about people not interested in properly learning how to LAND AN AIRPLANE!!! Because whenever they, the fake Republicans who have shamelessly invaded and taken over The Grand Old Party of Honest Abe Lincoln, come out with all that rubbish about how President Clinton missed opportunities to kill bin Laden, they LIE BIG TIME! Do your own thorough investigations and research and you will find the truth that is still out there: Bill Clinton did all he could reasonably do to locate and either capture or destroy America's most dangerous enemies, but the Oil Companies kept on sending otherwise friendly Emirs and Sultans and other allies to visit bin Laden, so as to prevent US from being able to destroy them without risking destroying important moderate Arab allies in world's Oil Seaway that is The Persian Gulf! And we are talking about moderate Arab states in The Persian Gulf who even have polite relations with Israel! Who do regular business with our historic friend and ally Israel!!

As for any one else you know who might still have doubts about who to vote for: tell them to visit www.njdc.org and also to take note of the fact that even former New York City Democratic Mayor, Ed Koch, is totally for Barack Obama's Presidential ticket!

YES WE CAN DO IT NOW! SO DO IT!

If You Vote For Sarah Palin Then Don't Vote For Her Just Because You Think She Is A Smart Woman Or A Great Mom

2008-09-09T19:36:00.000-07:00

By Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher (Constitution-loving Patriotic American and Jewish, by the way)

First of all, I am, have been and will continue to be a supporter of the Obama-Biden Democratic Party Ticket for the General U.S. Elections of 2008. Just in case you’re one of those people who gets really angry after reading something only to find out that the person who wrote always had a bias and never intended to give the other side a chance.

Secondly, I am male, and, no matter how hard I might try to convince those women who want a female President as soon as humanly possible, I know that chances are slim to none that this Op-Ed piece will suffice to convince you to vote for Senator Barack Obama. But I am also somewhat feminine as a Freethinking Philosopher and I reserve my right to hope that Sense & Sensibility will ultimately prevail over Gender-Identity-Bias and the irrational subconscious fear some women have of Black men in America today!

Loaded first Paragraph! I know, and I risk losing you right here and right now, but having studied Psychology, formally and informally, and having spent much of my life deliberately observing society, human behavior and particularly the behavior of my inner sex (you’re probably going to laugh at this one: I’m a predominantly homosexual Lesbian in a male body!), which happens to be very feminine, I feel it is my solemn duty and wholehearted obligation to make every best effort I can to prevent the McCain-Palin Ticket from winning. Why? Because I have every good reason to think that that would spell disaster for America, and, thus, for The Whole World!!! Governor Palin is a very serious National Security Threat (and not at all because she happens to be a woman and mother…heck, I gladly voted for Mondale-Ferraro in 1984!), and for Senator John McCain to have invited this threat for purely opportunistic political reasons (i.e. winning at any cost and by any means!) shows just how much of a risk he is to America and The World, too!

Let me make something perfectly clear, before I get into the real nitty-gritty of this argument, it is by no means my intention to demonize Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska, nor to make false statements about her past or current life. Like many women who are devout Assembly of God “Bible-believing Christian(s)”, Mrs. Palin truly believes that she is doing all she can to protect her children, family, spouse, followers, supporters and fellow congregation members, from Evil, from the Wages of Sin, from Eternal Damnation in Hell! She truly believes that we live in The End of Times, that 9-11, 7-7 and many other horrors and tragic events are absolute proof that New Testament Prophecy is factual reality and is evident in all manner of dire signs happening everywhere! She truly believes that the reason Israel and America have suffered from sick, monstrous terrorist attacks is because too many Jews and Americans have failed to follow G-d’s strict laws, in effect ‘His Commandments’, ‘His Ultimate Plan and Will’, as ‘promised to us’ by none other than ‘Jesus Christ’, ‘The Son of G-d’, and that ‘Eternal Salvation in Heaven’, following ‘The Rapture and Armageddon’, that is coming any day now, that America is waging a ‘Righteous Christian War’ against ‘The Enemies of G-d’, and that she and Alaska have a very special role to play in all of this!!! And yet, until the ‘right’ time comes, she has no intention to do anything but be a good mother to her children, protecting them from sick people, a long list which not only includes truly sick pedophiles and dangerous hard-core criminal thugs, but also includes; homosexuals, as well as other types of ‘deviant’ kinky adults having consensual intimacy with other ‘deviant’ kinky adults, poly-amorous adults, bisexuals, ‘abortionists’, ‘genocidal doctors who provide relatively safe (for the woman concerned) abortions (as opposed to dangerous ‘coat-hanger’ abortions in filthy hidden basements) and any and all people who in any way support the rights, or, as someone like her would put it, the ‘crimes’ and ‘Cardinal Sins’, of the aforementioned types of people, including Democrats, ‘Bleeding Heart Liberals’, practically all Liberals in general, ‘Commies’, ‘Pinkos’ (which rhymes with stinkos), Anarchists, Satanists, Traitors, Disloyal Americans, most Labor Union leaders, most Community Activists in most of America’s Impoverished Inner-City neighborhoods, practically every woman in The National Education Association (which is non-partisan), Witches, Warlocks, Harry Potter Fans, most (but not all) Environmentalists, members of NOW (National Organization of Women, for those of you men who should already know better), People for The American Way, Peta, Amnesty International, all Jews, Muslims and ‘Christians’ who do not vote Republican, Moose Lovers, former Presidents with family names like Clinton and Carter, actors with names like Jennifer Aniston, Sophia Bush, George Clooney, Robert De Niro, Richard Dreyfuss, Danny DeVito, Cindy Crawford, Matt Damon, Brendan Fraser, Kate Flannery, Morgan Freeman, Tom Hanks, Leonard Nimoy, Edward Norton, Sidney Poitier, Brad Pitt, Henry Winkler, Forrest Whitaker, Denzel Washington, Kathleen Turner, Meryl Streep, Martin Sheen, Sharon Stone, Wil Smith, Kate Walsh, Ben Stiller, Directors like George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Spike Lee, intellectuals like Cornel West, Laurence Tribe, Alice Kessler-Harris, Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo (The Original New York City Free Advice Man), Capitalists like Warren Buffett, George Soros, David Geffen, Ben Cohen, Jerry Greenfield, Oprah Winfrey, musicians like Bob Dylan, Mariah Carey, Natalie Cole, Merle Haggard, Herbie Hancock, John Legend, Kris Kristofferson, Jennifer Lopez, John Mellencamp, Dave Matthews, Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Wonder, American top athletes like Charles Barkley, Michael Jordan, Hulk Hogan, Rod Smith, Greg Oden, and the names go on and on….

Now, at this point, you may be thinking; ‘I thought you said you were not going to demonize Palin’. Well, I am not demonizing her, because from her point of view she is actually truly a very good, decent, caring, loving mother, and a truly patriotic Alaska-first American patriot fighting the many sick and Evil enemies of G-d! And, with regards to actual pedophiles and hardcore criminal thugs she’s right. But with regards to most Americans, most of whom, like myself, truly understand, appreciate and love Our Country’s Great Constitution, especially one of its most fundamental parts concerning the absolute need to Separate Church from State, in effect to keep Religion out of Politics, Government and Statecraft, so that we do not end up like Iran, Taliban Afghanistan, or like most of Europe was at the time Our Great Democratic American Nation was founded, by truly some of the most wonderful people in the History of The World, such as the truly progressive Liberal Democrats Benjamin Franklin and Thomas Jefferson, as well as George and Martha Washington, and so, so many other great American patriots, some Christian, some Jewish and some not religious about their Jewish or Christian roots…with regards to most Americans Governor Sarah Palin is 100% wrong, especially in her failure to truly understand, appreciate and protect Our Constitution, which is the sole basis for being Americans! She is not a demon, an agent of Satan, Lucifer, Count Dracula, Charles Manson or even Alfred E. Neumann! Of course not! She really does want to do and be good, but wanting is not the same as actually doing the right things and being reasonably tolerant and respectful of the privacy, freedoms, liberties, human rights, Constitutional Rights of all of our fellow Americans! In that sense, Governor Palin is no different than any other fanatic religious person in America, whose views, however much I and other Americans will protect their rights to hold them, are views which are totally incompatible with the offices of President and Vice-President of The United States of America! She is, however unwittingly and unintentionally, serving the very interests and goals of those sick fanatic religious extremists who murdered so many of our wonderful fellow Americans and other fellow human-beings almost exactly seven years ago, to this date, on that day that will live in infamy, September 11, 2001! And we Americans who love our Democratic way of government, our Freedoms, Liberties and Duties to Our Great Constitution, we who love The True American Way of Life, The Spirit of Independence that our founding parents fought so hard for, we cannot allow foolish people, however kind and sweet they can be at times, however generous and friendly, however much they may be great mothers, beautiful and otherwise fairly intelligent, albeit definitely not wise, women, to be one heartbeat away from The Presidency! Nor can we vote for a man who, no matter how great a war hero, how patriotic he may still mean to be, no matter how much he has ideas, a few of which may be similar to those of Senators Biden and Obama, that also mean changing the ill ways of Washington….we cannot allow a man who had such terribly poor judgment in choosing a religious fanatic, however pretty she may be (to some…my taste is different), as his running mate and someone a death’s leap away from Our Presidency, the Presidency of America!

Now, there will still be some among you who will still think that I cannot be right about her being a religious fanatic, and to those of you who think I cannot be right about Palin I sincerely implore you to do your own research, your own homework, your own investigations, and even that you demand that she answer these supposed allegations concerning her specific religious views and the extent to which she may yet suddenly be willing to renounce them! I ask you to be a good mother and/or wife, a good woman and/or supporter of women’s rights, but ultimately I ask you to be my fellow American, a good American, who truly understands, appreciates, loves and protects Our Great American Constitution, which so clearly expresses the need to separate Church from State, Religion from Political Office! I ask you to decide whether you really want to live in a Theocracy like Iran or Taliban Afghanistan, or in the Land of The Free and The Home of The Brave. And if you do the right thing I have no doubt that you will understand that McCain-Palin is the wrong choice, even if Obama-Biden is an imperfect and perhaps seemingly disturbing choice. I mean, it is totally fair that you might think Obama is a closet Muslim bent on harming America, given how some in the media have spread false rumors and given that as a Freemason he is not really religious in the way most people understand it, but he is just as much a Jew, Christian and Muslim as all Freemasons tend to be! Seriously, do you really believe for one moment that he would have won the Illinois Senate race without the majority of Chicago’s most successful Jews and Christians, if there has ever been any official statement or even private party chatter in which he would express the slightest disrespect or contempt for Our Country, his America? Do you really think that our Democratic Party and practically all of its lifelong patriotic American political leaders, especially such iconic figures as Ted Kennedy and Bill Clinton, would allow any American to become President of The United States if we did not know for sure that he is not and has never been a dangerous religious fanatic or worse??? Do you really think that though he holds (as any Freemason must) the greatest respect, equally, for Judaism, Christianity and Islam, for the common belief in One Divine G-d, he would be anything but totally opposed to and disgusted by the kind of phoney, fake Muslims who cowardly murdered thousands of fathers, mothers and children on 9-11??? Do you really think that this mixed-race man, whose beloved maternal grandparents and relatives, who he always speaks about so affectionately, so lovingly and so sincerely, whose mother was the daughter of average White American Christians, whose wife and children he has encouraged to share his basic Christian values would dishonor his loved ones??? Do you really think that this knowledgeable minor expert on Constitutional Law (neither McCain nor Palin can compare), who has had no qualms about praying at My Jewish People’s Wailing Wall….our Beloved Kotel in Yerushalayim, only a few leaps away from the place we Jews believe/think G-d created Adam...who has voted with Senator Biden in favor of protecting our valiant American women and men in arms, providing them with Mine Resistant Ambush Protected armored vehicles, so desperately needed and wanted by our forces in Iraq and Afghanistan, whose every word and thought is about restoring America’s greatness throughout the world, about making America strong at home and abroad, about going after the terrorists who attacked us, especially bin Laden & Company, and their Taliban accomplices, in Afghanistan and Pakistan (if need be), would ever do otherwise and wreck his own family’s future and even risk the safety of America and The World??? Do you really think that Senator Joe Biden would hesitate one moment to take charge and protect America and defend us from our enemies, domestic and foreign, should Obama be found unable to fulfill his duties?? Are we really going to allow a religious fanatic, however shiny eyed and dashing, or a man who has somehow lost his senses in so many ways (flip-flopping left and right, especially most recently) to take control of our nation?

I think not!

To my way of thinking America is truly facing the ultimate litmus test ever in the history of world politics and governance!

And I think most Americans, especially America’s women, would rather vote for a safe and sensible America, one in which by 2012 it is more than likely a woman shall be elected President! By the way, my very special inside sources tell me, that Senator Barack Obama may have made a deal with Senator Hillary Clinton to let her or the woman of her choice become the Democratic Party’s first female Presidential candidate in 2012!

So, do your homework, your own investigations, your own fact checking, see the truth about Palin’s fanatic religious views for yourself, and then make the right decision this November.

G-d Bless You, G-d Bless America and may a woman be Our President in 2012!

Senator Barack Obama Admits He Is A Muslim...NOT!

2008-09-07T21:07:00.000-07:00

IMPORTANT! This Sunday (Sept. 7. 2008) Obama mispoke and in a context that can easily be understood, if you watch the whole interview on This Week with Stephanopolous (ABC-News), said what only seemed to be either a Freudian slip or an inadvertent admission to being a Muslim! Obama's many enemies will only want you to see their edited version and not the whole interview, because that way you will fall for their dirty tricks. Truth be said, once and for all: Senator Barack Obama is a Freemason, exactly in the tradition of George Washington, Benjamin Franklin and many of our Founding parents, and as such he recognizes, as do all Freemasons, that all three Monotheisms, Judaism, Christianity and Islam contain truth concerning the nature of G-D and our Human Universality! And George Stephanopolous (ABC News, This Week with...) is well known for his high-pressure interviewing tactics and has caused many to speak in oversimplistic ways that can easily be taken way out of actual context! The enemies of Obama will not show the full interview, because then people would see that Obama was nervous (Stephanopolous is not a Bill Beutel or Ted Koppel!), that he was referring to his exposure to Islam during his childhood, at which time he had a positive experience and developed a natural affinity for its better aspects, and they would see that Obama has trouble hiding his interfaith Freemason ideals, which are and have always been Liberal, Progressive and relatively non-Dogmatic! Obama is not a Muslim, but like all Freemasons he shares many things in common with non-Christians, especially with Jews and Muslims! In fact, as a Spiritual Jew I find more in common with peaceful forms of Islam than I do with Christianity in general (in terms of dietary health/rules and attitudes about sexuality), but all extremists, whether they are pseudo-Islamic fanatic extremists who hijacked Islam, or pseudo-Christian fanatic extremists who want to cause World War Three, or even pseudo-Jewish fanatic extremists who don't see the real danger in what they are doing...all fanatic sickos who think they have a right to murder people in the name of G-D, are abhorrent to me and to Senators Biden and Obama! So, in closing, rest assured that Obama is not a Muslim fanatic pretending to be a Christian! He is a Liberal, relatively non-religious, but Spiritual and G-D-respecting/loving, moderate Social Democrat and Progressive Capitalist! I think that during the course of the next two months Obama will err in his speech, but there is absolutely nothing in all his years of hanging out with rich and educated Chicago businesspersons, quite a few who are Jewish, or with any other people, that indicates the slightest chance he is anything but a Progressive Liberal Patriotic American Democrat! Last but not least, I'd have no problem with a moderate Muslim, Jew, Hindu, Buddhist American for President, provided their whole life and personal connections were not an issue. Obama's life and connections ARE A+ CLEAN and SAFE! He was vetted by Chicago's Pro-Israel Jewish community, vetted by Biden, who is very Pro-Israel (as I am), and vetted by a Special Federal Security Task-Force set up since 9-11! Obama could never have come this far up if he was not the Altruistic Semi-Hedonist every U.S. President should be!

McCain-Palin or Obama-Biden...that's the question!

My dear fellow Americans,

I am The Original New York City Free Advice Man (see The New Yorker magazine, August 17, 1987, p. 18-19), and I am here to share my insight, ideas, concerns, as well as my inspiring words. These are words you won't hear often from other people, but they will be important in bringing about the positive change we all yearn for. Read and see what I mean. By the way, you can really do a lot to help insure that The Obama-Biden Ticket for American Unity Wins Big this November, by simply copying this and pasting it in an e-mail and then sending it off to your friends, and asking them to do the same! Just remember to put your own salutation and name at the beginning! (e.g. Jennie McCollum here...thought you would like to read this inspiring piece! I was feeling a bit down but it lifted my spirits, because I know those who read it will most likely vote for good change! YES WE CAN! And so can The Free Advice Man!)

A Comparative Analysis of McCain and Obama:

McCain wants you to think that Obama is unqualified to be President for lack of substantial executive experience, except that McCain also lacks significant executive experience! Kennedy (JFK) did not have substantial executive experience, yet he was an excellent President at a time when America most needed him. Obama does not accept that his limited executive experience is an issue, because he has sufficient experience organizing people and his own Primary campaign’s success was ultimately due to his excellent ability to organize people, which means that he actually does have as much, if not more, executive organizing experience than McCain! In fact, McCain’s own Primary campaign was very poorly organized (he constantly offended his own staff!) and badly managed (especially financially!), and the only reason McCain was able to pull off a surprise victory against his fellow Republican Primary runners, was due to his ability to trick his opponents by doing what he promised he would never do, by playing very dirty politics, by falsely accusing his rivals of terrible things, and exploiting an already desperate and very angry Republican Party base! The McCain that the mass media has shown us all these years…a man willing to work across the isle with Democrats for the good of our country…is NOT the McCain we now see! But the mass media is not doing enough to show how McCain is nothing more than a desperado, who cannot be trusted to keep his word and is the worst kind of opportunist! Obama has never attacked McCain the way McCain promised not to attack Obama (this particular article is an attack written by me and not Obama...I am sure he would disagree with some of the words I am using), for Obama is really not interested in wasting our time on dirty politics, especially after the Republicans have ruined our economy, divided and weakened our nation, created many more enemies abroad, and damaged our ability to sell our products and services overseas! McCain’s most notable experience, which actually shows how unqualified he is to be President, is his voting for Bush’s agenda over 90% of the time!!!

McCain claims that it is he who is the agent of change, and not Obama, who actually was the first to run as a fresh new alternative to all the crap that goes on in Washington ! But McCain does not come across as one bit credible on being an agent of change, when not only has he voted alongside his Party and for Bush’s failed policies over and over again, but he then uses the same old, worn-out, false fear-mongering tactics that Bush used for all these long, painful and divisive years! Never mind the fact that, as the Congressional 9-11 Report proved, it was Bush’s failure to heed warnings from our fine FBI agents and other Federal Security agents, and his arrogant ‘go ahead and strike us first and see what we’ll do’ attitude which ended up with the mass murder of so many of our friends, family and fellow Americans on 9-11!!! By using the same old crap, the same old deeply offensive fear-mongering tactics McCain is not one bit an agent of change, because, when nitty comes to gritty, McCain, Bush, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and Cheney are nothing but the worst kind of nation-dividing, democracy-destroying extreme political opportunists, simply interested in filling up the pockets of their rich friends in OPEC and in the Texas Oil Billionaires Club! They have wrecked our economy, ruined our nation’s fiscal budget, adding trillions of dollars to our national debt, reversing the fiscally conservative policies of the Clinton years (we actually had a budget surplus under President Clinton, for the first time in ages!), they have spent our hard-earned tax-payer’s money on spoiling the Iraqis, who refuse to spend their own Oil billions, while our own country’s infrastructure and public service sector suffers for lack of government funding, and then, beyond all human decency, they have the gall, the utmost shameful attitude to dare suggest that they, the Republicans, are the only party of change for America! Hell, we’ve had enough of their bad change! America wants good change, change from the bad change that Bush and McCain represent! Senator Obama and Senator Biden are very much exactly the kind of change America wants and deserves, they are positive change away from the nation-weakening ultra-divisive politics of shameless fear-mongering and outright lies! Just see for yourself when the debates come! You will notice how Senators Obama and Biden will talk about the issues and give us real solutions for our very real problems that plague our country and all working-class Americans! But the other side, McCain and Palin, who want to give us an even more extreme version of the Bush years, will try to push the debates into the same old dirty politics of personal attacks, and yet Obama and Biden will be seen as way better than that! The only change McCain-Palin represent is change for the worse, at a time when we’re already suffering way too much! They will tax the working American family woman and man to death, while they continue to fill up the pockets of OPEC and The Texas Oil Billionaires Club, and they will smile at you while they are robbing you blind! NOT! Because we are not going to be fooled! We're going to do our homework and compare both sides very, very carefully and realize that one really does represent good change and the other represents more of the same old bad change!
McCain wants American women to think he is better than Obama, because whereas Obama, who just happens to be half-Black, half-White and 100% American (and a man who really could care less about color and everything about content), chose the most loyal and dedicated public servant in recent American History, Senator Joe Biden of our First State of Delaware, one of the kindest, friendliest, sincerest, most real and most polite person you’ll ever meet (what a contrast to Cheney!), McCain chose a tough-talking, intelligent but misinformed woman to be his VP running-mate! But hold on a sec! Of all the women far more qualified on the Republican side, why did he chose the one who is totally unqualified and who represents everything Bush has been about?!? Governor Palin, like Bush, though popular in Alaska, a state with a very small population, has shown over and over again that she could care less about the environment, about working class families and poor people, about your right to go to a library and pick up and read any darn book you please (it is now a known fact that she was hoping to ban all sorts of books, including several books which are considered American national treasures! Simply because she did not like the words and ideas in them, which tend to remind us of our precious freedoms and rights!), and she could care less about Separation of Church and State, which is one of the most important principles enshrined in Our Nation’s Great Constitution! Imagine that! Our great Founding Fathers and Mothers escaped the horrors of religious persecution in Europe and fought the British Monarchy in order to be able live their own lives, free from government interference and threats into their personal religious convictions and way of life, and they knew all too well that without a Constitution that guarantees Separation of Church and State our nation would soon fall into the same old horrors of civil wars in the name of one religion over another! And now McCain, desperate to pretend to be a champion of women, chose a woman who, like Bush, has no respect for our Constitution’s Separation of Church (religion) and State (government), who wants to ban those books and ideas she finds offensive, who wants to push America into a final World War Three, because she truly believes that these are the end of times and that we must have a worldwide nuclear war, because she truly believes that it is alright for mankind to deliberately cause such an Apocalyptic End! Well, she’s stark-raving nuts I tell ya! C’mon people, can we risk having a sweet-talking religious fanatic, similar to Jim Jones and David Koresh, one heartbeat away from the Presidency of Our United States of America?!? No way Jose! If there is going to be an end of times, then it must be only after we have all done all we really can to actually prevent and stop it from happening (YES WE CAN prevent World War Three), otherwise we’re not talking about G-D’s will, but about a few of our own insane fanatic zealots taking over the asylum and the rest of the world, and plunging us into a terrifyingly painful final horror beyond comprehension! Just compare the fanatic expression of Palin to that of another fanatic zealot named Ahmadinejad of Iran, or the late, sick Jim Jones who used cyanide-laced KoolAid to murder hundreds of American men, women and children, who naively trusted him! Compare their ‘shiny, glazed-over’ eyes of fanaticism, and you will agree that Palin is no different, especially when you examine her background thoroughly and discover all the scary facts that that short Republican Convention video did not want any of us to know about!!! If McCain could make such a dangerously fatal error in judgment, by picking a fanatic zealot for his VP running-mate, just because she really is a sweet-talking, friendly-looking, woman, and probably a good mother to her children (many fanatic women are good mothers to their children…up to a point…until something breaks in them!), then what other really bad decisions will McCain make if we allow him to sit in The Oval Office?? Let’s be real here; we’re all better off with people who know how to keep their religious convictions to themselves, and who understand that America belongs to all Americans, of all religions, faiths and ideologies, and not just one or the other! While McCain pretends to be a champion for American women (don’t forget that it was the Democrats who first chose a woman, Geraldine Ferraro, for the VP post), Senator Obama made a decision not based on gender, race, religion, or any a number of things that should not be at issue, but he chose the very best American foreign-policy expert in America today! And he chose Senator Joe Biden because, of all the other Democratic Party candidates who ran, Biden was the most civil, polite, well-mannered, decent, honest to the point, straightforward, and intelligent of the whole lot! After all, we Americans have learned the hard way that it is one thing to have a village idiot, fake cowboy, elected as Sheriff of a small town, useful for scaring away criminals, but it is plain stupid to have such an idiot as President! Bush was never qualified, especially given how he failed in his own private business ventures over and over again, with his father’s rich Texas Oil Billionaire friends having to bail him out over and over again! Bush was light years away from being another Ronald Reagan (not that I liked Reagan), let alone another Abraham Lincoln! In fact, McCain seemed sufficiently qualified, until his fatal mistake of choosing a fanatic zealot like Palin, but in the end McCain is nothing but a desperado who has made too many wrong decisions and taken too many wrong votes in Congress all these years! We cannot afford more of the same old crap, and the only change McCain represents is change from very bad to even worse!
McCain and Palin and the rest of the Republican gang are jubilant in claiming that the Surge in Iraq has worked, and that they were right all along, while they claim Obama and Biden were wrong on the Surge! But hold your horses here! Actually both Obama and Biden worked for the success of the Surge in Iraq by providing conditional support to our troops in Iraq ! And the Surge in Iraq is only working because the Iraqi’s have been seeing a glimmer of hope that U.S. troops will soon leave once America does the right thing and elect Senator Obama as President and Senator Biden as Vice-President! When Senators Biden and Obama attached conditions to financing the Surge in Iraq , they included provisions that meant giving our troops the right equipment they would need! In fact, it was actually Senator Biden who demanded that the government provide Mine Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicles, designed to survive IED attacks and ambushes in Iraq!!! Why? Because until he and Obama can begin to carefully, gradually reduce and remove our troops presence in Iraq, we Americans are obliged to provide our fine men and women in arms the best we can afford in order to improve their safety and ability to fight off the enemy effectively! But the success of the Surge in Iraq, much thanks to Senator Joe Biden’s efforts, has been very, very costly to our nation’s budget, and is only a temporary success, because we cannot afford to forever be Iraq’s baby-sitters! It’s that simple! Our purpose in Iraq has been achieved! We got rid of the trouble-making Saddam regime, which cost us dearly in terms of all the wonderful American Marines and Army soldiers who lost their lives because Rumsfeld and Bush failed to provide them enough troops and enough of the right equipment! We have given the Iraqis enough time and way too much support, which they have squandered, while they have been pilfering their own country’s Oil Billions for their own corrupt officials, and now it is overdue that the rest of the Arab nations pay the price for Iraq’s stabilization and that we bring back our over-taxed, worn-out troops so that they can come home and be with their loved ones, even as we send the most hard-core fighters among them, meaning those who want to continue fighting, to go to where we should have already had enough troops, to Afghanistan, to wipe out the Taliban and al-Qaeda, once and for all! Imagine that, here is McCain once again trying to fool us, even as he too well knows that it actually was Senators Biden and Obama who provided our troops what they needed and who understand that our real enemies have always been hiding out in the caves and mountains of Afghanistan, and that the Arabs have enough money and resources and fancy military equipment to deal with the few terrorists left in Iraq! Why should we Americans spend more money and risk more lives in Iraq, when the Iraqis themselves can do it?? And it is the biggest of lies from McCain and his supporters when they say that al-Qaeda terrorists are all over the place in the Arab nations (Afghanistan, as you probably know, is not an Arab country and is located on the other side of Iran, which is also not an Arab country!)! The fact of the matter is that most Arab governments have been fighting any traces of al-Qaeda in their midst, because they know what a threat they represent, and other terrorist groups are also being targeted, now that almost all the Arab nations are beginning to see an historic opportunity to work with America and Europe to make peace with Israel and bring about true peace, prosperity and culturally-sensitive forms of democracy to their region! But the Arab world refuses, understandably, to do anything that would ever even appear to reward the Rumsfeld-Wolfowitz-Cheney effort to impose American-style democracy on them and to force them to make peace with Israel, when they would rather do so on their own terms, because they do (since the Iraq War) understand that Israel can never be destroyed without causing World War Three, and because they have begun to see the many economic trade benefits and quality of life benefits that making peace with Israel would provide! So the Arabs are patiently waiting for us Americans to elect a President who will be a strong friend to peaceful Israel and peace-seeking Arabs! The people who attacked us on 9-11 were mostly Saudis and not Iraqis, and Saddam’s regime was just as much against al-Qaeda as we did, even if for different reasons! The War in Iraq could have been waged properly, but only after we had first managed to wipe out al-Qaeda and the Taliban, which we could have done years ago had Bush not used our limited military resources and troops to fight his personal vendetta against Saddam in Iraq! If we had done the right thing, as Biden had suggested all along, and first taken care of the mess in Afghanistan, we would have been able to build a broad pan-Arab, American and European coalition to deal with Saddam, and probably even to do so without having to go to all-out war! Because we could have used that grand coalition of Arab, European and American troops to take invade vast deserted areas of Iraq first and then make a compromise deal with Saddam, in which he would have been allowed to go into comfortable exile in the country of his choice, with his Mafiosi family and relatives, and lots of money too, and we would have spared the Iraqi peoples all the horrors, death and destruction that has cost all of us so dearly all these years, and which turned the Arab world against us overnight! We could have helped set up a fairly moderate Iraqi government of peace and reconciliation between Iraq’s sectarian divide, and allowed a reformist movement of ex-Baathist to create a new and more democratic Iraq! But only if we had not done what Bush did, if we had not let Bush try to create American-style democracies with Arabs who are unable to accept and appreciate our way of life! So, for McCain to try to fool us into thinking that the success of the Surge in Iraq is a Republican partisan victory, to score political points at the expense of our nation’s unity, at the expense of our valiant troop’s blood and sacrifice, and at the expense of the actual truth, is scary because it is actually horribly contrary to everything that McCain used to represent!!! McCain has either lost his mind, or he has managed for decades to hide his true face and has pretended to be a moderate uniter and a Republican willing to compromise with Democrats for the good of the American people! Just do your own research and you will see that what McCain and supporters of McCain, like the all-divisive and dishonest Senator Lindsey Graham, have lied about the truth and that the real story is one of Senators Biden and Obama doing all the right things for our troops and for our country! Shame, shame, shame on McCain! No wonder he attracts people like Senator Liebermann, who have fallen for all their fear-mongering lies!Now, I could go on and on, but to be honest I’d rather use these last sentences to ask you to do your own homework and to compare Senator Obama’s fine Presidential platform, by going to www.barackobama.com, and seeing with your own eyes the truth! If we all do our homework and compare both party’s candidate’s platforms we will vote for the Obama-Biden Ticket!

Appalling McCain!

2008-09-05T12:37:00.000-07:00

My dear fellow American,

You are going to thank me/us for forwarding this info. to you! Seriously!

Because this is about something so serious, so severe, so threatening to our democracy and Our Great Constitution!

Palin sought to have certain books banned.

A list circulated earlier turns out to be bogus. That said, The Assembly of God Church does seek to have many books banned. And Palin, even until very recently, has been very active in that particular Rapture-desiring church.

So what the freaking rotten-tomatoes-stench is this poll telling us (?);

From www.rassmusenreports.com:

‘A week ago, most Americans had never heard of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin. Now, following a Vice Presidential acceptance speech viewed live by more than 40 million people, Palin is viewed favorably by 58% of American voters. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 37% hold an unfavorable view of the self-described hockey mom.’

Look folks, we better start forwarding this particular e-mail to each and every one of those fellow Democrats who make up part of the 58% this poll refers to; or we’ll be edging too close to World War Three for comfort!

This is not hype…nor conspiracy theory crap; this is PALIN PLAIN aPpALINg!

Let all Americans know about this right now! Do not hesitate to forward this e-mail for one moment lest we find ourselves on the verge of another Kristallnacht and tons of Farenheit 451 (Ray Bradbury…we love you!) barbaric book burning!!!

I mean it: forward this e-mail to all your friends and acquaintance this moment or risk destroying our country, and The World, for good!

As a Jew I wouldn’t ban any book, no matter how good, bad or in-between it is! The more things we can freely read (and write) the better off we are! It seems the mass media is forgetting this crucial truism.

Forward this…NOW!

Sincerely yours,

"It's over. It's over. It's over for the special interests," McCain promised. "We're going to start working for the people of this country."

Excuse me! What a BIG FAT LIE!

Special interests?!?

The Neo-Con anti-Freedom, anti-Freedom of Speech, book-banning fanatic pseudo-religious nuts are YOUR SPECIAL INTEREST…Mr. McCain! Not mine, and certainly not America’s! So are OPEC, The Texas Oil Billionaire’s Club, Bush/Cheney (Mr. McCain; you voted for Bush policies over 85% of the time!!!), the non-reformed excessive version of the M.I.C. (McCain; you’re no IKE, that’s for sure!), The so-called Christian Right, etc….all SPECIAL INTERESTS YOU WORK FOR!!! Who the hell do you think you (Mr. McCain) are fooling?!?

As for ‘working for the people of this country’, hah! Like we’re not the people of this country…all at least 51% if not more who want real change, and the kind of change only Senator Obama and Senator Biden can bring! ‘People of this country’ my foot! You’ll be working for the fanatic zealot minority that you’ve suddenly, and so obviously opportunistically, embraced! Please Mr. McCain, get real! Because we Americans have really had it to here with all this kind of fear-mongering, divisive and weakening crap! We’ve had it with all this TRICKle-down-economics from Neo-CON-artist pseudo-Republican opportunists.

Shame in the extreme! We’d have to be dangerously crazy to put you in office!

The So-called Republican Party Has LOST THE ELECTIONS ALREADY!

2008-09-04T20:09:00.000-07:00

Last week I watched my Democratic Party's uplifting and unifying and reaching-out to all Americans, exciting, patriotic, sensible Convention in Denver, and I was truly impressed by all who took the stage and spoke such fine and timely words!

This week I decided to respectfully observe the so-called Republicans Convention, and all I got was one disappointment after another! Where was the McCain we thought we knew and we thought we could trust?? How could he pick such an appalling person, regardless of her being a woman (And one who likes killing noble creatures, like Alaskan moose! That's not the kind of woman I like.), who is so wrong a choice to be one hearbeat away from Our Presidency?!? A pseudo-Republican who unashamedly represents an extremist religious agenda, who harbours anti-Semitic views, who is truly offensive to me and all of my progressive fellow Jews, and who represents nothing but the same old same old of the pseudo-Republican Neo-Con Party!

And then tonight! G-D protect our beloved country, the America of our beloved founding parents, who would be appalled by the pseudo-Republicans constant mixing public office with religious zeal and thereby violating one of the most fundamental principles of Our Great American Constitution! Using deeply and eternally painful and horrific images of our nation's 9-11 tragedy for opportunist, fear-mongering, politicking was the very last straw! And then for that man, Senator Lindsey Graham, to imply that America has no real options and does not need democracy, because, as he implied, only his party can provide us Americans with the security we need! That was shameful in the extreme, and if the majority of my fellow Americans were to accept that kind of illogical, anti-democratic stance, then America will have fully played into the hands of our enemies; those pseudo-Islamic fanatic zealots who hijacked Islam and who violated its most basic principle by murdering so many wonderful Americans, so many wonderful people from all over The World, so many Jews, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, Atheists, Pagans and Muslims too! Well, as as far as I am concerned tonight the pseudo-Republicans shot themselves in their feet and have lost the elections! How sad that these fools have, throughout the past 80, years managed to destroy the good name of a party that once gave us a wise man like Lincoln!

As I predicted; Senator Barack Obama and Senator Joe Biden will be our next American President and Vice-President, respectively!

Good Night and Good Luck!

For all those who are not sure who to vote for this year.

What Republican, Independent & Swing Voters Should Know

By Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher, a.k.a. The Original New York City Free Advice Man.

First of all, regardless of what I write here you’re going to vote for whomever you are convinced will best defend America from her enemies, domestic and foreign, and I wouldn’t want you to do otherwise, because America does have enemies, truly dangerous enemies, sick people who hate everything decent and good in the world, who hate our Democratic Republic’s Constitution and the Freedoms, Liberties and Responsibilities it entails! Our enemies want nothing less than to be able to totally hijack Islam and in its name to impose a pseudo-Islamic global fascist, Nazi-like monstrosity of an empire, in which women and children are constantly terrorized and all who do not give up their human rights and subjugate themselves to their sick ways will be tortured and murdered in gulags and gas-chambers. I have no doubt about it, myself. Which is why The Global Fight Against Terrorists (which cannot be waged in the form of a conventional war), with our brave Special Forces and elite Ninja-like precision surgical strike anti-terrorist units, with help from our allies who cherish similar democratic values, and who love their families, friends and fellow human beings as The Lord commands us in The TORAH, must continue until the day that we can be sure that their number and ability to harm us is so diminished that they are nothing more than a small band of rogue goat herders hated more by their own relatives and country-folk than even by us! For our fight is in defense of all that is truly decent, all that is respecting of the privacy, property and liberty of all individuals, all that is respecting of the freedom of all persons to choose their own way of life within their own private residencies and lands, and is against all those sick monsters who share the sick ideas of those who attacked our Homeland on 9-11, and who attacked our friends in England on 7-7, who attacked our friends in Spain, in The Netherlands, in Africa and elsewhere! We must not elect anyone who would, even by accident or neglect, fail to protect our great country, America, home of the brave, land of the free. Nor elect anyone who would jeopardize our security interests abroad, as those interests would also jeopardize our safety at home. We must not elect anyone who would fail to come to the defense of our friends in Israel and in parts of Europe, and elsewhere in the world. We must not elect a bleeding-heart naïve neo-liberal or, for that matter a megalomaniac who would confuse our real enemy with all those true Muslims in the world who did not attack us on 9-11 and who have also come to understand, over time, that those sick monsters who hijacked their religion and misrepresent its true message, are just as much a serious danger and threat to their religion, safety and security as ours! We must not elect either of these extremes, because then we will have forsaken the promise made by our founders, great men and women like Eliza Lucas Pinckney, Abigail Adams, Martha Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin and George Washington; a promise that is embodied in Our Great Constitution and our Noble Democratic Republican American Way of Life!

Now, you may be convinced that our current President, George W. Bush, though not that great at handling our economy, never failed us in protecting us from our enemies, domestic and foreign, and you would seem to be right if we only look at how our government, and the many brave, noble and loyal federal agents who work so hard to keep us safe, have managed to prevent further 9-11 type and scale attacks. Granted, regardless of what your opinion of George W. Bush may be, one cannot fault him for sincerely wanting to protect us from serious danger and harm. But the measure of security and safety cannot be based only on how things seem to be working inside America, as the cost to our economy, having managed to alienate so many of our traditional, historic allies and other friendly countries, has itself put us in very, very great danger of self-destructing! The costs of our current global military, economic and political strategy, which even some hardcore Republicans will admit has been a terrible failure, have been very steep indeed! In actual reality what the Bush Administration, perhaps inadvertently (and dangerously foolishly), has managed to do is to use the wrong global and domestic tactics to fight terrorists, because though these tactics have indeed managed to prevent large-scale single-act attacks on our Homeland, they have actually caused way too many more, individually unnoticed, attacks on our economic security, our infrastructure, our liberties and our freedoms and our safety abroad!!! The actual reality as I see it is this: the fear-mongering, color-coded and bold rhetoric ‘the enemy is right behind you…could be your own neighbor…is anyone who does not share your version of American life…is anyone who is not a Neo-Conservative Republican’ method of fighting our enemies is actually playing right into their goal of destroying us! Perhaps with the best of intentions, perhaps not, Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and a plethora of other naïve ultra-conservative idealists have actually caused severe and utterly dangerous internal divisions in our own country, among our fellow American citizens, including patriotic Democrats and Republicans, and all along our enemies have probably, in all likelihood, sat back in the darkest corners of their filthy caves and, getting DVDs from supporters who live down in the villages of Pakistan and Afghanistan, have been watching news reports about our daily lives in America and about our many, many new and very, very dangerous conflict points arising throughout the world, especially with regards to the situation in Pakistan, Afghanistan, The Middle East, Russia, Iran, China, North Korea, and the list goes on and on and on! And maybe those sick bastards hiding in their caves may only be inheritors of the monster bin Laden’s legacy, maybe he is already dead (who knows for sure), but I have no doubt that he and his sick brood trained newer generations of sick, primitive-minded fools into becoming dangerous terrorists, and he told them to wait, watch and only strike when America is finally busy at war with other nations of the world, over economic interests, over water resources, over oil and what not! And to watch us Americans turn against one another, little by little, day by day, eroding every vestige of Our Constitution’s rights and creating a nightmarish Country of Paranoiacs that Stalin would have been proud to rule! After all, that sick monster bin Laden (I would have even nastier words to describe him, safe for the fact that I wrote this for a broader audience) was a very clever man, albeit totally lacking any real wisdom and any sense of human decency and kindness, trained by our own mixed-bag CIA in rogue warfare tactics and what not, and he knew that even more Americans would die in the aftermath of 9-11 from the cummulative effect of having driven us into the direction of senselessly self-destructive divisiveness over otherwise benign issues. He knew that Bush, under the malicious influence of Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz and Cheney, would use the occasion, the excuse (Casus Belli) of the 9-11 horrors to eventually launch an attack on Saddam Hussein and Iraq, knowing that by doing so we would manage to turn even some of the most sympathetic Arab and other Muslim national leaders and peoples against us, some who actually were just as angry and disgusted at those assaults against humanity as we ourselves were. Sick bin Laden knew that Bush was very likely to fall into his trap and thereby ruin decades of hard, serious diplomacy and friendship-building in Europe, Asia, The Middle East, and elsewhere! And, to our great disadvantage and terrible loss, he was right! Now, hold on a sec, don’t get me wrong; getting rid of Saddam Hussein and his regime, which really was a threat to relative stability in the Persian Gulf and The Middle East, was something his (Bush's) father should have done in the first place, during the First Gulf War! But, given the complexity of the world situation, and the fact that the world’s economic stability has since, as a result of 9-11, suffered a major and almost totally lethal shock to the market-economy system, had I been President I would have done the right thing! I would have realized that sick bin Laden actually wants me to fall into his trap and attack Saddam Hussein and Iraq, thereby inflaming and outraging the Arab nations, and this also angering our friends in Europe who are even more heavily dependent on the flow of Arab and Persian oil! I would have thought to myself; ‘Hah! That bastard bin Laden thinks I’m such a fool! Well, I’m not going to take his bait, and fall into his clever trap by starting a full-scale conventional military invasion of Iraq! No way Jose! Nope. I’m going to build the world’s largest coalition ever and I’m going to sweep down on Afghanistan and there won’t be a cave in any mountain, a hole under the floor of any mud-brick house, or any place where a single terrorist can hide, and I’m going try to capture bin Laden himself alive, and then put him in a special holding cell where for the rest of his life he will be shown, high up on the white walls, images, at least every day for eight hours straight, of the horrors and aftermath of what he did to my beloved Americans and our friends, and there will be the sounds and odors of the horrors recreated for him to hear, and then the words, the pleading of all those wonderful people, decent human beings, begging for help to find their lost ones, in the minutes, hours, days, weeks, months and years after he managed to murder so many wonderful, innocent mothers, children, fathers, and managed to wreck the lives of countless many more thousands and hundreds of thousands of lives, and the suffering, the extreme poverty, death and destruction his cowardly indefensible monstrous acts caused upon the least of nations, who were dependent on our great charitable efforts! And I will have scientists make special devices to insure that during those eight hours each day he cannot close his eyes or shut his ears, or clog his nose, and I and the world, after giving him the fairest of trials, will continue to watch him every now and then, as he is forced to face his evil ways! And I will have the same done to any of his close confidants and any who would dare follow in his path! And the greater number of the world’s nations will have united against all terrorists, and the majority of the world will have eventually helped create special circumstances that would allow for the relatively peaceful, precision target, removal of any and all murderous leaders who terrorize their own people! And then I would have put due pressure on all parties concerned to finally make a fair, just, comprehensive, lasting peace for Israel and a Palestinian State and for all The Middle East! And then the world would have by now begun to create the kind of alternative transportation and energy technologies which actually exist, mostly hidden from public view, that will liberate all humanity from the caustic fumes of burning oil, the deathly stench of fossil fuels, and oil would simply be used in preciously priced small amounts as lubrication for motors, and we would provide very decent alternative business models for OPEC nations, so that they may get away from having to produce fossil fuel gasoline, and benefit from those alternative energy and transportation technologies, that would eventually free humankind from greater environmental degradation, from pollution that actually kills many, many more people every day than the total of those murdered by sick bin Laden and Company on 9-11! For I would have been wise enough to understand, to see in my mind’s eye that bin Laden is actually working for the Dark Side of OPEC and their Oil Peddling Billionaires Club in Texas! And I would see that, as our great President Ike (Eisenhower) so wisely warned us, we need to tame the beast of The Military Industrial Complex and make it serve humanity, producing defensive weapons and alternative transportation and energy technologies, that we need to make the MIC moderate and cure it from its addiction to senseless violent conflict and terrible wars! For I would be wise enough to know that America’s stability and security, financial and in every other sense, would be jeopardized if we were foolish enough to destroy the source of much of our economic strength and security, the MIC! I would be wise enough to do what Ike wanted us to do; tame the MIC and gradually convert it into a total force for good! But did Bush do any of these wise things? Noooo! Not only did he and his cronies fail to do the right things and rise to the occasion, but they managed to severely damage our world standing and our overall economic security, even harming the MIC so severely that most of the MIC’s industrialists wished he had never been President!

So, in closing, you must be wondering what I am getting at, who I would like you, my fellow American patriot, to vote for this November?!? Simple! Do not vote for McCain, because the world’s so pissed-off at us already that unless we vote for someone they, the world, the world of other nations who would otherwise like to once more buy our goods in greater quantities than ever, really sense means real change, then we’ll be wasting another painful four years that we and the world really cannot any longer afford! (Not as if the world could have afforded the past 8 years already!)

But then, who am I asking you to vote for?

The bleeding-heart naïve neo-liberal Senators Barack Obama and Joe Biden?!? ‘You can’t be serious now?!’, you’re probably asking (or something to that effect).

Well, I myself will not vote for the bleeding-heart naïve neo-liberals! No way Jose! And I am as serious as one can be! I will only vote for the wise, brave, patriotic, Constitutional lawyer who will not hesitate to defend America from her enemies, even if it may sometimes mean going to war, the Constitutional lawyer whose Presidential platform is loaded with very responsible, fairly conservative economic ideas, but who will finally also save so many millions of working-class Americans from total disaster and premature death! I will vote for the Constitutional expert lawyer who knows that Ike was right, that Washington was right, that Lincoln was right, that Kennedy was right; I will vote for the man who can best unite us Americans, Black and White, and all others too! I will vote for the man who has the wisdom to know whom to seek advice from, including another great American patriot, a man who wants our Military Industrial Complex to be strong and healthy and to be a force for good! I will vote for a Constitutional lawyer who knows that America was actually founded by men and women who understood, all too well, how dangerous, wrong and evil it is for government to serve the specific ideological and/or religious interests of one set of Americans against another! I will vote for a man who really does, like Lincoln did, come from the ranks of the hardest working Americans, whose grandmother worked to make the weapons we needed to defeat the evil enemies of humanity, the enemies of freedom and liberty, the anti-Democratic, anti-Republican Fascists and Nazis who threatened to destroy human civilization! I will vote for the man who, against so many odds, managed to pull himself up and out of the hardships of poverty in America to become the best candidate, at this time, for President of The United States! I will vote for a man whose very message includes a straightforward admission of being as imperfect as the best of us Americans, and whose own family life exemplifies the very true family values that a healthy America needs to respect! I will vote for a man who has had his weaknesses and made his mistakes and thus who is truly willing to seek the wise counsel and experienced advice of wiser men like Senator Joe Biden! I will vote for someone who is very human, and very realistic and never seeking to impose his own ideas on others, Senator Barack Obama! I will vote for him because he truly understands the everyday hardships so many wonderful working-class and middle-class Americans, and even some wealthy Americans, now face! I will vote for a man who is of the people, for the people, by the people! And I will vote for him even though I already know that he will sometimes disappoint me, and that though he will be a great American President loved as much abroad as at home, he will not always do as wisely a thing as I would have done! And I will look back four years later and know that he did great for America’s image abroad, that he gave the world renewed hope and faith in America, in an America not afraid of healthy, patriotic, Democratic Republican change! And maybe, if he as wise as I sense him to be, he will give Joe Biden the chance to be President in 2012, so that his legacy will not be tarnished by what tends to happen in a second term! And I will see America once more a beacon of hope and a glorious light of reason and love among the nations of the world! And America will truly be the home of the brave and land of the free, a place for you, me and everybody, everybody regardless of their particular ideology, religion, way of life, race, sexual orientation, gender, age, whatever! Because the only colors in America that we should be truly conscious of is the green of money (noticed lately how un-green our money has been getting?! Hhm?!), the green of nature, and the Red, White and Blue of the great symbol of Our Constitution, unfortunately often abused, our American Stripes & Stars, Our Old Glory! God Bless You! And now do the right thing: go to Senator Obama’s official web-site and read his platform and speeches, and think very deeply about what I have written here and why I am convinced voting for McCain, even if he really is such a nice guy, would do NOTHING, NILL, ZILCH, ZERO to help change the world’s bad opinion of us! And without much of the rest of the world, without better, greater markets to sell our fine products (and some of our crap and junk, too!), without our ability to relatively safely travel and live abroad, for business, pleasure and what not, we Americans will only lose out BIG TIME to CHINA, RUSSIA, INDIA and The Lord knows who! So do the right thing and make a wise decision not based on simple ideological preferences only! Keep in mind this: Ike’s Republican daughter is for Obama, over 80% of Chicago’s Jewish community, many prominent citizens, fully support Obama, especially given his pro-Israel record (go to www.njdc.org if you doubt Obama is safe and properly vetted), and Palin belongs to a fanatic group that believes Jews will burn in Hell! As an American I find McCain’s choice, regardless of her being a woman, offensive! Whereas Biden has been on the political forefront in our Global Fight Against Terrorists!

Better to allow decent begging than to force desperate people into crime!

2008-09-02T19:27:00.000-07:00

There is something really wrong with the way we live in the modern world, especially in Europe and America. We treat the poor like criminals, make begging and buskering illegal, in the name of seeking to prevent or stop and punish people for loitering.

Obviously loitering can be a danger to public safety, as when a group of young people hang out in front of a specific store, bank, school or pub and act in a way that is intimidating and/or threatening to other people.

But there is something very, very wrong about laws that prohibit begging and buskering, because the very Judeo-Christian principles and tenets upon which most of our Common Law and modern laws are based come from people and societies that actually allowed begging (and, obviously, by implication, buskering too) and encouraged people to give to the needy, especially to those so needy that the only way they can survive, at the time, is to beg! After all, begging is not stealing, unless, of course, the person doing the begging is using the money gifted to them as a means to endanger themselves and others, especially by abusing charity in purchasing harmful addictive substances. Substances which are often used by violent, murdering criminals and extremists to buy the means to murder people and intimidate any who would try to stop them! Of course, one cannot afford to truly determine whether or not someone who is begging in public is legitimate and using the funds provided to pay their rent, basic food costs, transportation costs, hygene costs and clothing, or abusing what should otherwise be restored as a basic human right!

If I see someone with a sign or asking for charity in a polite and non-threatening manner, and if they briefly explain to me what it is for, and if they say it is for basic survival, and if they appear sober and self-caring, then, if I can afford it, I feel obliged and blessed to give what I can truly afford. But to think that most cities in Europe and America have passed laws outlawing begging (and buskering) really angers me and proves to me that society in general, and judges, lawyers, lawmakers, politicians and law enforcers in specific, are actually in violation of the most important laws of all! Namely the laws implied in The Ten Commandments (TORAH). If it were up to me what laws to impose I'd only make it illegal to beg threateningly or on the basis of outright, intentional lies. But I would not allow any law that would prohibit anyone from asking for help, by begging or buskering, just for doing so! After all, the only people who benefit from laws outlawing begging and buskering are criminals! Yes, you read correctly; CRIMINALS! Why? Because they need to be able to recruit new people to commit crimes for their gangs and illegal activities, and because people who are legally allowed to beg will never prefer to steal things, damage property, threaten, rob and murder people!

But what about the rights of people who have to work hard for a living? Do they not have a right to walk the sidewalks and enter the shops without being bothered by other people? Is it fair to allow people to 'take it easy' begging and/or buskering while others must risk their health and lives working in unhealthy and dangerous jobs??

I do not see why there cannot be a reasonable, sensible and actually mutually beneficial set of laws governing who, how, where and why can beg and/or busker.

Obviously someone who is healthy enough and fortunate enough to have a relatively harmless, relatively healthy, relatively fulfilling and fair-waged job, should not also spend time (and thereby diminish the ability of others who truly need to) begging. Nor should someone beg who is independently wealthy. But anyone who, by their own judgment, thinks that they are unable to survive without begging, especially those whose circumstances are very complicated and who have experienced severe injustice(s), should have all the right in the world to beg and/or busker in an effort to gain charitable contributions from others. But there is begging decently and indecent begging, and the difference really does matter. By 'begging decently' I mean begging in a way that; a. does not involve verbally or physically threatening the safety of anyone, even those who refuse to give charity, even if they could otherwise afford it! (it is also physically threatening if someone aggressively begs and prevents people from exercising their pedestrian or vehicular right of way!), b. does not even unintentionally obstruct people from entering and exiting places, be those places shops or offices or whatever; c. does not discourage people from using any public or private facilities; d. does not involve dishonest statements and devices that might seriously harm one’s state of mind and ability to reason. Begging should not be allowed in front of one’s private residence, and only inside if the resident has placed a marker, religious or otherwise, that denotes the fact that he or she welcomes strangers in need to ring their doorbell or knock and ask for charity. Obviously no one should have to put up with a person begging right in front of the entrance of their building of residence or anywhere in front of their private house, nor should begging be conducted so loud that it disturbs the tenants of a residential building. Preferably begging should be permitted in front of food stores, cultural and religious establishments and inside special ‘begging zones’ within malls, but not permitted in front of luxury boutiques, banks or non-religious restaurants for very obvious reasons. And, furthermore, the number of persons who can beg in front of the same location should be limited to one at a time, based on who arrives first, with exception to when the government declares that the economy is in a full recession or even a mini-depression; in which case there should be no limit on how many persons can beg anywhere! And to avoid likely conflict between those begging, villages, towns and cities should have special begging zones, comprised of an entire street’s length or block’s worth of sidewalk for every 10 persons begging, where the local government sets up an office that can also work towards helping those who are still begging find the right kind of government programs and non-governmental programs that might get that person into a situation where they really no longer feel the need to beg! And there should be a law that severely punishes anyone begging from using the money they get from begging to purchase illegal substances, to become dangerously intoxicated (includes excessive drinking), to pay for criminal activities (such as non-sanctioned forms of prostitution), to buy illegal weapons, to send funds to violent criminal or extremist groups, or to gamble at slot machines or in casinos (this would not include national lottery tickets, etc.).

Unfortunately, while most citizens in most countries in Europe can truly get significant government assistance (welfare state benefits), there are some who fall in-between the gaps and cracks, because their particular case is so different and complicated, such as that of Central European Jews and Roma (Gypsies) whose lives have been threatened in their native EU country and who are not officially eligible (yet!) to get the kind of government assistance in another EU country that they should! No one in the EU should be forced to live in abject poverty and significant danger simply because they do not qualify for public assistance in another EU country, where they are otherwise less likely to be threatened and harmed by racist thugs. In fact the EU would be wise to set up special offices to provide exclusive services and benefits for Roma, Jews, GLBT persons, and other small minority groups who may still be suffering severe setbacks or disenfranchisement because of the Grand Theft & Mass Murder of World War Two!

Begging is not fun, even if were not forbidden by secular law, and ultimately it is not good that anyone should ever have to beg, but as long as governments fail to provide proper, adequate and timely help to all persons, tailored specifically to their actual needs and personality, then we should end all laws that have forced so many would-be beggars into criminal conduct.

As for those who dare give a bad reputation to decent beggars by begging indecently, dishonestly and illegally; their punishment should first be in the form of a stern warning, then in the form of a small fine, and only thereafter should an indecent beggar be forced to attend a government job centre or face confinement in a humane place that is not a prison for hardcore, violent criminals (unless of course the indecent beggar also did something violent).

When begging is allowed within reasonable limits and conditions we all win!

But by denying people their basic human right to beg for survival we create a society so inhumane and unjust, that is it not worth defending!

Stop all this hating of people! Immediatly!

2008-02-26T04:38:00.000-08:00

I think it is just as abhorrent to hate those who truly seek to follow the teachings of Yoshua, as it is to hate those who truly seek to follow the teachings of Moses or Mohammed. In fact, I think hating people, personally or in terms of their group identity, is wrong, illogical and only leads to greater injustices, suffering and strife. We must not hate individuals or groups of individuals, even though we have the right to hate the wrongful things they might do! I do not hate anyone, but I vehemently oppose and dislike (you could say 'hate') all forms of anti-social, anti-environmental behavior, especially racism, violent intolerance of non-violent persons, and attitudes which are opposed to the idea of Unity-in-Diversity and Tolerance towards tolerant others. Life is too precious and short to waste living in perpetual hate and in the perpetuation of the perpetration of hate! We must abandon all those things which divide us as humans and unite on the basis of all that is wonderfully common to all human beings!

Note: Those who hate others and use violence to harm and/or murder others are clearly going totally against the actual principles and ideals of The Spiritual Teachers Moses, Yoshua and Mohammed.

"My Fellow Americans, in particular, for now, the many great residents of The Lone Star State of Texas, the GReat State of The Late, Great Governor Ann Richards:

The United States of America stands, with grand magnanimity, at a cross-road in all human History! Such is the challenge, that we Americans, who enshrined in Our Great Eternal National Contract, The Constitution, the very essence of what makes Our Nation Great, E Pluribus Unum, “Out of Many One”, that we cannot afford to fail! One nation United in the Strength of Powerful Diversity, founded on the pure reason and absolute logic that its Founding Parents had so well understood, that no religion or dogma should government favor over any other…for history then and now shows that when governments seek to impose any one religion or way of life on their citizens, all citizens lose…lose their freedom to choose and their freedom to be free from government abuse! We did not get this far by failing to heed the lessons of history past, and we will not rise to the occasion that history now presents us, if we suddenly forget those lessons and let a few opportunists continue to disrespect Our Great Eternal National Contract, The Constitution which I, You and All Truly Patriotic Americans honestly swore to uphold! For America was truly endangered lately by enemies from without and within! I am speaking of the terrorists who murdered so many wonderful and innocent Americans and guests. that specific September day...terrorists whom we will soon bring to justice for javing exploited and abused our kindness and open-hearted ways! A day which will never be forgotten by any of us, ever! Nor shall we allow those whose selfish opportunism dared do to the majority of us Americans, the very things the terrorists actually wanted! For those who attacked our country, who slaughtered our fellow citizens and guests, always wanted us to fall for their dirty plan; which was none other than to see us divided and defeated, by instilling in us a culture of senseless and constant fear, by turning us against one another in moments of confusion and despair, and hoping that we will finally, in an act of senseless desperation and ignorance of Our Own Unique Historic Documents, destroy the practice of our very tenets of freedom, liberty and democracy, of respect for true privacy and personal security, for the illusion of public safety at the expense of Our Most Cherished American Rights, at the expense of Our Constitution and all the wonderful and fair principles, values and ideals that Our Unique Historic Documents represent! And, lo and behold, their devious and filthy plan almost succeeded! Almost, were it not for the fact that Americans have a strong natural sense of what is right and what is wrong, what is freedom and what is slavery, what is unity-in-diversity and what is the danger of being divided and conquered, by forces from without and within, who, though very different in their methods, strangely enough dared attempt a similar goal! The goal of wrecking Our Nation, and manipulating us into destroying the very foundations of what makes us such a Great Nation!

Yes, my fellow Americans, even we stand at a cross-road, at a point where we can fall under the ominous weight of great division and despair, or take the high road to a bright new day, a future born out of the promise of its great historic past, and out of a most sincere respect and adoration of Our Constitution and its essential and eternal truths! We can fall into the false mindset that says that the world is merely our own backyard, and we are free to impose our power on others, even as we undo the very freedoms, liberties and democracy our fathers, and forefathers fought so hard for and paid the ultimate price! We can fail to reason logically and pretend that peace elsewhere in the world is simply a matter of a very long, time, energy and money consuming set of almost endless military campaigns and wars, not to mention all the wonderful lives lost to a senseless foreign policy based not on reason and cooperation with other nations, but on irrational fears, insecurity and false pride! Or we can listen to the angels of our better reasoning and avoid making things worse than they already are, and use our greatness to inspire and motivate our allies to help restore relative peace and prosperity to the world, to help us restore our reputation as a nation that is truly fair, just and respectable, that has the wisdom to know when and where to use its military might to, with pin-point accuracy and caution target the enemies of all humanity, the real terrorists! We can once more live by the proven successful historic legacy of Jefferson, Roosevelt and Kennedy. A legacy of constructive cooperation with those nations of the world who also understand that, however imperfect and difficult it may be, diplomacy and business incentives always bring about greater and better results than war and uninvited interference in the affairs of sovereign nations and evolving cultures!

We can be the America that the world misses so much! The America that liberated Europe and humankind from the horrors and madness of Nazism and Fascism! We can be the America that loaned the poorer nations of the world some of our finest medical doctors, engineers and teachers, through things like The Peace Corps and other similar programs! We can be the America that finds a better and newer way to keep its doors open to those who truly come here with good intentions, to work, live and participate in the Great American Democracy of ours! We can be the America that admits it is wrong to check people’s private documents and electronic media storage devices without due process of law and put a stop to this unbelievably Unconstitutional activity which in totally unacceptable! We can be the America that once more respects the true Civil Liberties and Privacy Rights of all its Citizens, and puts an end to all Unconstitutional intrusions into our private lives! We can be the America where we know the real difference between truly justified surveillance of true suspects and totally unjustified violations of personal privacy and freedoms! We can be the America that knows that there is a huge difference between having surveillance cameras in public places, monitoring the purchase of dangerous chemicals and allowing law enforcement to suddenly enter one’s private home or vehicle without sufficient prior probable cause, appropriate search warrants, and judicial oversight! We can be the America that understands that it is truly a violation of The Constitution, in effect the right to be free from State Persecution and Cruel and Unusual Punishment, to mix known violent criminals with non-violent suspects at any time, period! We can be the America that on the one hand truly respects the privacy of the intimate affairs of all consenting adult-aged persons, regardless of their identity or lifestyle, while protecting minors from dangerous persons who would abuse their rights and harm them! We can be the America that perfects its legal system, first by renaming it The Legal Justice System as opposed to The Criminal Justice System, such that individual rights and group rights are truly respected and protected! We can be the America that Decriminalizes Possession while redoubling its efforts to counter violent criminal activity over the sale, distribution and abuse of addictive and destructive substances! We can be the America whose government is truly humane and constructive in how it handles its social problems! We can be the America that seeks environmentally sound energy policies, including alternative energy and transportation technologies! We can be the America that is the leader in Space Exploration, both manned and unmanned, and the leader in developing the most advanced new technologies and devices! We can be the America that is the Shining Beacon of True Hope, Wisdom and Love, the whole world over! We can be the America that the World looks up to with respect, admiration and trust!

Yes we can! Yes we can! Yes, my fellow Americans, we most certainly can! Because we’re the land of the free and the home of the brave! Because we are not anyone’s ignorant slave! Yes we can!

Or, if we do not watch out and act true to our American instincts, we can vote for more Fear-Mongers, for more divide and conquer war-profiteering opportunists, for more of those who fall into the clever trap set up by our terrorist enemies!

We can do that too!

But we won’t! NEVER, EVER, AGAIN! Never will we ever again allow our nation to be harmed so easily by terrorists and those who exploit terror attacks in order to gain endless power and control over us!

We can be the Great America That Our Forefathers and Foremothers Envisioned! We can be Free, Liberated and Democratic! Yes We Can! Yes We Can!

And to be that Great America we need to vote for an American Presidential candidate who is best able to unite as diverse a nation as ours, who best can motivate and inspire our younger generations to live up to the higher ideals of our Great Country, who is the best person to reach out to our friends, allies and those would be our allies around the world, who best represents the unity in diversity that is AMERICA! Senator Barack Obama!"

A little laughter to make your day!

How The Commercial Mass Media Manipulate Voters

2008-01-13T08:09:00.001-08:00

It’s incredible! If you listen to the Sunday political pundits on CNN, NBC, CBS, ABC,etc….:
they’re now saying that maybe ‘they themselves’, the ‘commercial mass media’ made a mistake, that maybe they were giving too much of a free ride to Barack Obama, that Obama has some kind of rock star appeal that even affects them, that maybe it was ‘their own’ unrealistic desire to see him win that blinded them, that stopped them from being critical enough towards Obama and his campaign, that they may have been too harsh on Senator Clinton, that they now say that maybe Bill Clinton has a point about saying that the press hasn’t really scrutinized Obama on Iraq and that this whole thing is a ‘Fairy Tale’, and ‘they’ (the press, commercial mass media) go on about how genuine and sincere Hillary Clinton’s expression of emotion and tears are and that maybe ‘they’ were too harsh and that that was probably what changed enough minds hours before the New Hampshire voters cast their votes, that women suddenly saw how human Senator Clinton really is!!! Strangely enough, Bill Crystol, definitely no friend of ours, saw the truth about her crocodile tears…. As far as I am concerned, Hillary was crying out of self pity and the fear that she might actually lose her chance at living in the White House and flying once more aboard Air Force One…the most comfortable place on and above Earth!!!

Please….

What is really going on is that the commercial mass media, the press, is actually deliberately playing a reverse psychology trick, a game meant to turn voters away from Senator Barack Obama!!! They know that many Americans, perhaps most, do not trust the mass media and do not like being manipulated by the mass media, and that by artificially pretending to promote Obama so much, beyond reason, they know that they can actually have the reverse effect on Obama and actually make him appear to be the corporate choice, part of the same old problem! They know that then some voters will think to themselves, ‘if the mass media is trying so hard to get me to like Obama then there must be something wrong with Obama…and so I’m voting against Obama’…. It’s the same old trick that the commercial mass media has been playing for ages on Americans and celebrities and public officials and politicians! Build them up to be almost super-heroes then pretend to be part of the public bandwagon that brings them tumbling down!

The real question is why does the commercial mass media want Obama to lose so bad???

Because they know that Senator Barack Obama is really the real CHANGE CANDIDATE and that he is what America really needs to unite the country and finally make Washington work for the people and not the corporate interests’ short-term profits-over-people agenda of continuously dividing, conquering and exploiting the people of America!!! They do not like Obama because he is the champion of ethical business practices and fair wages for working class Americans, that Obama is for truly protecting the interests of middle class American families and restoring those families to the middle class who have suffered way too much under the massively failed policies of the Bush Administration. They, the commercial mass media, the press, do not like Obama because his wise and sensible foreign policies, based on diplomacy and a surgical removal of terrorists, will bring relative peace around the world and thus there will be less hype, less shock, less NEWS to report!!!

They did it to Senator Joe Biden, to Senator Christopher Dodd, to Mike Gravel, to Kucinich, to anyone who dares tell the truth like Senator Barack Obama does! And we, the citizens of America, who understand and realize how clever the commercial mass media is in their ability to manipulate voters sentiments, we must reach out to our fellow voters and let them know that this is what is really going on! That Senator Barack Obama is the Real Change candidate, and that YES, WE TOO CAN finally stop the commercial mass media monster from destroying our HOPES and DREAMS for a better, safer and freer America, a better world! Time to let everyone know these facts!

Hillary did not FIND her own voice...the commercial mass media GAVE it to her!

An Idea I Submitted To Senator Barack Obama.

2008-01-12T07:41:00.000-08:00

The Administration of President Barack Obama, once in office, should seek to have legislation passed that would require that officials and agents of the Federal Government, including all related State agencies and officials, be required to attend a mandatory 8 to 20 hours long Ethics, Civil Rights & Constitutionality Course every year, or every two years, in which they would learn and/or be reminded of the very dangers of corruption, of the failure to respect the Constitutional and other Civil Rights of citizens, of the fact that they, as government officials, may be investigated at any time to help insure that they are following through on their ethical and legal obligations under the Constitution.

We also need to create a strong Citizens’ Rights Ombudsman-ship Department, with Ombudspersons randomly invited from all walks of life and sectors of society. The purpose of this semi-government agency would be to give citizens a serious added measure of protection, as well as place to air legitimate grievances, against any possibly corrupt government official or agent, and whose Ombudspersons would be authorized to investigate, publicly publish all findings and seek the prosecution of any persons who are seriously suspected of having violated the Civil Rights of any and all citizens. To insure that the Ombudspersons, at least four for every State in the Union, themselves have not been corrupted, there should be a Special Internal Investigations Council of Ombudspersons which would be comprised of both current and former Ombudspersons who have not been in violation of the law, with exception to a single Misdemeanor. No Convicted Felons would be allowed to be Ombudspersons. As an added measure to insure ethical behavior on the part of Ombudspersons, they would be paid significant salaries and would be eligible for a special bonus upon successful completion of their four-year tenures. Such Ombudspersons would also be part of the following idea:

The Administration of President Barack Obama should seek to create a Federal Court of Special & Exceptional Cases, such that citizens whose grievances and problems are unusually complex and/or odd can get the attention of the Federal Government and make their case for seeking whatever possible/reasonable Federal Assistance, i.e. Legal or Financial, that by virtue of the intent of The Constitution they would be entitled to. After all, there are many persons, perhaps in the thousands, whose grievance and problems are due to some very unusual circumstances and/or experiences that cannot be addressed by any regular courts. Some likely case examples:
1. A citizen Holocaust Survivor’s (or any other Genocide’s) adult child is unable to have her/his rightful family property returned by the government of a foreign country on account of their own domestic property rights laws that are in violation of International Law, but The United States Government could represent the individual concerned in an International Court and seek reparations/damages on behalf of that U.S. citizen! The obvious benefit to the U.S. government would be that it could then discourage any future violations of the Human Rights of anyone in the world! And even if the case concerned involved a ridiculously low level of government compensation, the case would still stand up in an International Court.
2. A citizen is an exceptionally brilliant and self-educated person, what is known as an autodidact, but due to past injustices and misfortunes was unable to acquire formal accreditation that she or he would otherwise, based on the merits of their actual exceptional knowledge, experience and abilities, be entitled to. Such a person should have the right to be tested by an accredited institution of higher learning and, should they have passed the examination(s), receive the diploma they are entitled to. The government would pay for the diploma, and the recipient would then be given a fixed number of years to repay the government, pending their actual income. This opportunity would be relatively rare and unlikely to be abused, as no one in their right mind would set up their lives to have a long period of relative failure, and the benefits to society would be potentially enormous! Institutions of higher learning would offer their diplomas to such exceptional persons at a discount, and this would, once and for all, help solve the historic injustice of people who are disenfranchised simply because they were unable to afford to obtain a full higher education and associated formal accreditation, diploma, and related employment opportunities. Last but not least, society as a whole would not be at risk of forever missing-out and losing the great innovations, inventions, ideas and solutions such autodidacts tend to offer! This is truly a win-win-win solution!
3. A citizen has been through a series of unusually unfortunate misunderstandings and what not, and is somehow unable to get the public assistance they would otherwise be entitled to, but with such a Special & Exceptional Cases Court they would finally be able to explain their over-complicated case and have a Judge or Jury decide whether or not they have been denied their due.
4. A citizen lost her or his employment due to nasty pressure tactics and threats from criminal gangs or organized crime and was unable to afford, financially and security-wise, to safely take their case to court, but their Civil Rights were nonetheless denied and such a special court could judge in favor of that particular citizen receiving special federal protections, and what not, as well as representation against any entities involved in the denial of their right to employment.
5. A citizen believes that their specific religious beliefs and/or lifestyle and/or sexual identity, etc.., have been used against her or him against her or his rights, but was unable to afford legal representation and would now be able to have this Special & Exceptional Cases Court judge in their favor and connect them to the resources and representation they would need to get justice, thereby insuring that the Law is Truly Fair, Just and Blind to whether or not they can afford private representation on their own means, etc…

Such Federal Court of Special & Exceptional Cases would include in its juries Ombudspersons, thereby helping insure that no case held can be rigged against the citizen!

There Is No Such Thing As A Fascist Democracy!

2008-01-10T17:07:00.000-08:00

The Founding Parents of America (notice ‘parents’ and not ‘fathers’) knew all too well that for America to succeed in being a true democracy it would have to have a Constitution that protects the rights of all individuals to be free from the fear of groups of individuals, vice versa. And they knew that the only way to protect the rights, in effect the freedoms and liberties, of all individuals America must be to create and maintain a country that abides by the principle of Unity-In-Diversity, Tolerance of Tolerant Others, and Separation of Religion from State-Craft, in effect Personal Beliefs from Public Interest!

The vision of America that pseudo-Republicans, Neo-Cons, and other Reactionaries have is one that is opposed to Unity-In-Diversity, Tolerance of Tolerant Others and Separation of Religion from State-Craft (more commonly referred to as Separation of Church and State). But there is something inherently idiotic and dangerous about the idea of an ‘America’ where some elite group decides which religions, which particular denominations, which ways of living, which types of persons are welcome, included and enfranchised and which are considered deviant, evil, wrong , unacceptable, incorrect, and are unwelcome, excluded and disenfranchised. After all, who decides and where does the process of weeding-out undesirables begin and stop?!?

On the other hand there are also irresponsible pseudo-liberals and fake progressives who really do go too far in the opposite direction, such as those who disrespect the conservative values of others.

That said, Responsibly Progressive Liberal Democrats understand that true Unity-In-Diversity, though requiring constant attention and effort, as well as Tolerance of Tolerant Others and Separation of Religion from State, cannot be possible when government intentionally or even inadvertently disrespects and violates the privacy and private property rights of individuals! The vision of America, the right vision, that truly Progressive Liberal Democrats, including Social Democrats and Social Libertarians, hold is an America in which there is a place for practically every life-style, every identity, every individual and every group! The only common limit is that which is defined as The True Golden Rule: Do Unto Others As They Really Want To Be Done Unto, Or Do Nothing, i.e. never force your ways unto others! True Liberals, Progressives, Democrats, and even True Republicans truly appreciate, understand and agree to enforce the True Golden Rule! For example: so long as an adult does not harm minors and only engages in intimate relations, on a truly consensual basis, with other adults; government has no business inhibiting, intimidating or in any way disrespecting the liberty and freedom of such adults. The same principle applies in relation to other issues. Some other examples: 1. Decriminalizing the possession of controlled and illegal substances, and dealing with substance abuse as a social health threat and individual health problem is the right way, not sending adults off to jail, where they are likely to become really hardcore criminals; 2. Protecting vulnerable families and minors from mentally ill people by requiring such mentally ill persons to move into specially created adults-only communities (which the government needs to create) that are built at a significant distance from families and children, and placing offenders in special rehabilitation facilities where the only relations they can have (actually encouraged) are with other adults.; 3. Reducing abortions by preventing unexpected pregnancies and prohibiting late term abortions, except in cases where the life of the woman would be at risk, etc…. The America we truly Responsible Progressive Liberal Social Democrats and Social Libertarians envision is one where individual rights, freedoms and liberties are truly protected and yet where the rights of families and groups to live their way on their own private property is also respected! We want America to be as Diverse and yet Unified-In-Diversity as reasonably possible, to truly be the Land of the Free and Home of the Brave. Not some kind of Fascist Regime that favors some over others, and ruins the lives of those who are different than the average, who are not born the same way, who might be persons who freely choose to live in ways quite different than those which society is commonly familiar with! We want an America that is not at serious risk of going down a slippery slope of intolerance based on the insecurity of people whose minds are full of irrational fears, hate and intolerance!

You cannot have it both ways! You cannot have an America that is only ‘Christian’ or only “Jewish’ or only “Muslim’….etcetera…or an America that is only for Conservative Family-oriented people or only for Gays, Lesbians, Bisexuals and what not….or an America that is only for those who are fortunate enough to be wealthy at the expense of modern-day slave laborers…or an America that is only for the majority… and still have the real America, the America of democracy, freedom of speech, liberty and respect for human rights! Either you have a truly Democratic America which is thus based on true tolerance, freedom and liberty or you always end up having a Fascist Regime that ends up destroying even the very select few it is meant to serve!

The real American Way is about NOT WANTING TO IMPOSE YOUR WAY OF LIFE ON OTHER ADULTS but about understanding the difference between public spaces and private spaces!

It’s that simple, and that is why Senator Barack Obama is the right choice for our country, especially as it has been suffering from the most dangerous assault yet from both within and without!

Why I Support Senator Obama Over Clinton.

2008-01-10T04:59:00.000-08:00

by Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, Philosopher.

Senator Hillary Clinton may yet become our first Lady President, and even Senator Barack Obama would encourage us to vote for her, if she won all the Primaries, but I have taken the trouble to make a thorough comparison of the two front-runner Democratic Party Primary candidates and here is what I have found:

1. Experience. The one most powerful argument, many say, that Senator Clinton and her supporters have in her favor is that she has more experience in governing than her opponents. Well, is that really true? I think the evidence shows that this is actually not the truth. Experience?!? Senator Barack Obama does not have as much Washington-based political and government experience as Senator Clinton does, but what do we mean by 'experience'? Do we mean by experience that someone has been taught to behave according to the status-quo power elite? In that case it is wonderful that Senator Barack Obama does not have that kind of NEGATIVE EXPERIENCE. But if by experience we mean actual hands-on people experience, honest social and political activism and down-to-earth governance; then Obama has infinitely more experience!!! And in those areas where Senator Obama lacks direct experience he has shown that he has enough 'good and useful experience' to know better than to assume, as both Bush and Clinton do, that he knows everything that matters and does not need to seek and listen to the counsel of others! Senator Barack Obama has the wisdom to LISTEN to others, even to people who are not part of the 'experienced' political elite! So, as far as I am concerned Senator Barack Obama is more positively experienced than Senator Clinton. Obama wins on POSITIVE EXPERIENCE!

2. Domestic Agenda. In terms of the domestic agenda both candidates, both Senator Clinton and Senator Obama, share many things in common. And Senator Clinton is a bit better at working with organized labor's leadership...for now. But the misperception that Senator Obama is anti-labor, anti-union, is absolute nonsense! Yes, Obama has had to face a few questionable and even corrupt officials, but all in all Senator Barack Obama is all for strengthening the rights of organized labor union members, for improving conditions and wages for working class Americans and doing so without harming the ability of American businesses to survive and remain competitive on the world markets. Actually it was President Bill Clinton who made it easier for big business to disrespect the rights of working class Americans, and Bush just managed to exploit those bad laws to do even more damage and harm organized labor and the rights of workers to expect fair wages and decent workig conditions! But when it comes to uniting America, and to improving relations between all American communities, to strengthening respect for minorities of all types and for the basic principle of UNITY-IN-DIVERSITY; Senator Barack Obama has an INFINITE advantage over Senator Clinton! Senator Barack Obama is going to give millions of young Americans, especially minorities, proof that they too can benefit from participating in their democracy and that the Presidency is open to all Americans who qualify by factor of their specific ideas and solutions and by factor of ethnicity, so-called race, sexual identity or whatever! Senator Clinton has been, is, and will be perceived as TOO DIVISIVE for most Americans and will not be able to heal the nation and unite the country, especially at a time when our country is facing real threats! Senator Obama's ideas for solving the nation's healthcare and health insurance crises are actually more realistic and better for America than those of Senator Clinton. Her ideas will inadvertently do much more harm than good. In general Senator Obama wants to insure adequate health-care to those whose incomes are just not enough, which means over 40% of Americans, while leaving those who can afford to get adequate insurance and care to fend for themselves. Senator Clinton would actually wreck almost all private health care in America and would mean an even greater windfall for the pill-popping pharmaceuticals. Senator Obama would only seek to have government interven in those areas and for those people whose situation would otherwise be truly tragic, in effect those who cannot afford the same kind of healthcare and insurance that Senators are entitled too! Selective assistance (Obama's plans) versus gigantic ineffective beaurocracy (Clinton's plan). Senator Clinton would do little to nothing to undo the negative, intrusive and un-Constitutional eavesdropping and fear-mongering, police state situation we have right now! So, Obama is much better for our domestic in so many ways! OBAMA WINS ON DOMESTIC POLICY!

3. Foreign Policy. Senator Clinton will do pretty well on foreign policy in the first year, but she will not be able to convince the world that America is sincere about undoing the great harm the Bush Administration has done, and by her second year the world will be back to the same old situation. Senator Barack Obama is a God-send, for he will be a mix of incredibly powerful and positive diplomacy on the one hand and a willingness to really go after the real enemies of America and the world, one and the same, the terrorist, no matter what type! He will be able to encourage moderate and progressive Arabs, as well as Muslims elsewhere, that America is no longer in the hands of crazy people who were seeking to create an eternal war between civilizations! He will motivate relatively moderate Muslim nations to work with America against all terrorists! Senator Clinton cannot begin to compete on this level with Senator Obama! Sure, her husband President Clinton, is much liked by many in the world who otherwise no longer trust the United States, but even he cannot beat Senator Barack Obama's ability to convince the world that America is open for fair trade, honest business, peace-building and prosperity generation!
Obama wins big on FOREIGN POLICY!

4. Character. Senator Obama is a very confident, calm-headed gentleman (similar to Senator Joe Biden) and he is also VERY VERY human! Senator Clinton, though she seems to mean well, has shown over and over again that she is willing to behave in a way that is so unbecoming of her status, as if she had a right to be President! The way the Clintons have attacked Senator Obama has actually shocked many Democrats, and even more Indepedents! After what she and Bill did to Obama in New Hampshire polls show many of those the Clinton's like to show-off as their supporters are having a change of heart! On character Obama wins significantly!

5. Electability. Senator Clinton is very risky, as she is unable to attract independent and swing voters the way Senator Barack Obama can! Yes, Senator Barack Obama is very much liked by most Americans who truly understand how much trouble our country is in! Hillary is not even liked by all Democrats!

The opportunists, the corrupt mass media pundits who serve the status-quo elite will try to convince you that Senator Barack Obama is not ready...BUT MOST AMERICANS WILL NO LONGER LISTEN TO ALL THOSE LIES!

Now, you decide! Because YES YOU CAN make a real difference!

Remember this one? “There you go again!”

Dear Iowan Democratic Voter,

Yes, you’re right! I do not know you in person, but as a fellow Partybuilder I would like to share with you my thoughts.

1. Something very unpleasant and worrisome is brewing in Pakistan, and one can imagine this scenario: Bush’s people have been allowing the Taleban (read: with the help of Pervez Musharaff) to keep sick/dangerous bin Laden ‘safe’ in hard-to-reach Waziristan Province of Pakistan, until the very final few months before the 2008 U.S. Presidential Elections, so that they can then use an elite joint Pakistani-and-American forces to capture bin Laden, dead or alive, and make it appear that Bush finally delivered on his post-9-11 ‘promise’! Thereby confusing America’s ‘swing voters’ and other voters, just enough so as to give a significant over-the-edge boost to whoever shall be the Republican candidate! And just in case that does not work; they’ll have a ‘Plan B’ in which it will appear, convincingly enough, that a major 9-11-style attack was just foiled!

2. If we Democrats choose Senator Clinton, then it will be very easy, if point ‘1’ happens (and, to some extent, even if it does not), for the Republicans to wipe out any advantage we Democrats have had so far! To a lesser extent the same is true is we choose Senator Obama, whose actual lack of experience and some superficial nonsense being concocted against him (as far as I am concerned Obama would actually make a fine President, even better than Senator Clinton…who, if she won, would try her very best to do what is good for our country, but would constantly face unfair opposition from our opponents)would be used against him. And Edwards is a mixed-bag candidate in terms of his style and manner of speech, which, my intuition tells me, would be too risky for us Democrats. The only choices left are Senator Joe Biden and Governor Richardson, because they both have serious international political experience, knowledge and wisdom. But Governor Richardson does have the baggage of being misperceived as weak on border security and related immigration issues (which is a shame, because he really is a nice guy). Basically, the conclusion I have is that Senator Joe Biden, who would probably choose Obama, Clinton or Richardson as his running-mate, is the candidate our political opponents most fear and can least manage to attack, without appearing nasty!

3. Senator Joe Biden and Senator Barack Obama would make a double-sure knockout election victory and would really deliver the goods to our fellow Americans and make our Democratic Party feel renewed, energetic and help prevent further damage to our Great Constitution and Ship of State! But the mass media, especially Fox, CNN and the Former ‘Big Three’ networks, many in the hands of such dangerous people like Rupert Murdoch (who practically handed Bush almost unlimited power to abuse authority and diminish Liberty), seem to WANT US TO IGNORE SENATOR JOE BIDEN! Why?!? Why should we let these irresponsible, selfish-minded, opportunistic, sensationalism-addicted, hype-spewing, corporate-interest-dependent, freedom-sell-out commercial mass media giants DICTATE TO US who should be Our President??? I see no reason why we should silently acquiesce to these monstrous machines of public opinion manipulation!

4. As I see it, by voting for Senator Joe Biden…even as a surprise final moment decision on your part ( hey…why not?!....go ahead and surprise yourself! ), we can send a clear message to all those who have been like vampires, feeding off the life-force of all decent, working-class and middle-class Americans! Throughout my life I have known how truly progressive Iowan Democrats can be! Now….I know you, as is true about many of your fellow Iowans, are not one to be fooled and played around with…so let me close by saying this: Yes, I have been a Biden and Obama supporter from the start, BUT I am NOT being paid up front by either of them for pushing these stated opinions of mine! And, yes, I hope that by sending you this thoroughly analytical letter you will think it over, a lot, and come to the same basic conclusion, and that you will let others know what I have to say. And, YES, I hope Senator Joe Biden, as President, will offer me a small job as an advisor to him!

Whatever you do, whoever you Caucus for and vote for, I wish you the very best always and hope that some day all of our children and all humanity will live in relative peace and prosperity!

Best,

My Thoughts On Advice In General, As Submitted To Wikipedia

2007-12-27T05:08:00.000-08:00

(NOTE: I wrote the following as an addition to a Wikipedia entry titled 'Advice (Opinion)' ( a stub at http://www.wikipedia.org ) and did so already expecting it to be removed at some point by the possible dark cabal(s) that love to use Wikipedia to have an inobvious but nonetheless dangerous influence on those who over-rely on the supposed objectivity of Wikipedia! So, if it is removed, do not be surprised. At least my thoughts are here for the historical record!)

Here is what I wrote at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advice_(opinion)

Additional Considerations/Thoughts. (Source: Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, The Original New York City Free Advice Man)

With few exceptions most post-industrial Western societies do not have the equivalent of the Guru in India or the elder village sage or Buddhist monk that exists in many Asian countries, including China, Japan and Viet Nam, and there is no doubt that there can be sociological, psychological and emotional benefits for those living in communities where there are older, more experienced and sometimes wiser individuals willing to dispense their advice, often free of charge. In Central and South America, and throughout Africa, there are Shamans and native tribal leaders to whom one can turn for advice, especially on spiritual issues and health concerns. True, there are still some communities, especially in small towns, in North America and Europe where one can find elder persons who are known to dispense advice to people from their own community.

Nowadays most people in North America and Europe get most of their advice through commercial media, such as newspaper advice columns, television talks shows and special internet subscriptions. The problem with these indirect sources of advice is that the advice is often too broad and not specific to the actual needs of the person seeking it, and then there is also the question of how ethical it is for celebrities, pundits and other profit-motivated individuals who may not really be qualified to advise people in general.

Americans and Europeans living in small rural communities and the countryside tend not to want to risk the chance that their personal problems will become the talk of the town and subject to the prejudices of idle and sometimes malicious gossipers. On the other hand those who live in big cities tend to become very skeptical about the advice strangers might provide and though their lives are often chaotic, confusing and problems can easily become overwhelming, the cost of seeking professional counseling can be prohibitive for those most in need, while those who can afford such professional counselling tend to get disappointed with their latest analyst and it is not uncommon for someone in a big city to change analysts every few months.

Today there is a new and growing anthropological phenomena; that of fellow citizens who sit out in public with signs suggesting the opportunity to receive 'Free Advice'. This kind of American Guruship is not without inherent risks, both for those offering the advice and those seeking it. It may be that the individual offering advice is actually someone in need of advice. Then again, it would seem that there is more than a grain of truth to the saying 'It is much easier to give practical, meaningful and relatively good advice to others than to one's own self.', which is what the first recorded American 'Free Advice' giver, Jean-Pierre Ady Fenyo, discovered when he began his years of 'Free Advice' giving in New York City in 1987 ( ref. to The New Yorker magazine, Talk of The Town, August 17, 1987.). Since that time hundreds of people throughout America have taken up this unusual habit. For example, The Three Free Advice Ladies who, unlike Fenyo, received major national media publicity in 1991-1994, and whose group book "Free Advice" was popular among women ( ref. to [[Amy Alkon]], Caroline Johnson, and the late Marlowe Minnick.).

"Free Advice" givers appear to be of all types and walks of life, thus one might expect that their advice would differ greatly. For example, The Original New York City Free Advice Man, as Fenyo has billed himself over the years, deals mostly with deep philosophical questions concerning life, death and the like, whereas The Three Free Advice Ladies mostly dealt with relationship advice, issues of appearance and style almost entirely geared at women. Throughout America ( you can put 'Free Advice' in the images search engines and see this for yourself ) most of those who offer 'Free Advice' appear to be males, some are experimental artists and others are clearly on a religious mission. While this sort of public advice-giving is supposedly protected under free speech rights, local authorities tend to discourage it, in part because of complaints by some citizens ( who may not want to be reminded about the fact that they really do have problems and who seem to want to enjoy public spaces, such as parks, free of any such reminders ) and because of the fact that most law enforcement officers do not have adequate training and education concerning what is and what is not protected free speech.

Growing levels of feelings of isolation and loneliness are detrimental to society and discouraging and punishing people who put themselves at some risk to help others with their advice might be worse than the risk that some might give bad or senseless advice. At the very least, free speech rights may be at stake.

It helps to keep in mind that 'you can lead a camel to the water hole but you cannot force it to drink the water'; which is true about advice, free or not, freely sought or unwelcomed.

Throughout history royalty, tribal and political leaders have tended to have one or more advisors and it is considered a sign of wisdom if a leader is not afraid to seek the advice of others. In fact, there are many classical examples of leaders who failed to heed the advice of others, to the detriment of those they lead and their own personal fortunes. In democratic societies it is not uncommon for CEOs and Presidents to openly court a number of advisors whose specific professional knowledge and experience can make even the least experienced leader a successful one. The problem is that sometimes a leader will appoint a number of people to advise them and yet be too arrogant or dictatorial, thereby inhibiting her or his group of advisors from bringing up issues, concerns and opinions that the leader involved is known to find too upsetting to handle. A really intelligent and relatively wise advisor might still be able to influence such an arrogant leader, by using clever psychological tactics, such as reverse psychology, to plant ideas (i.e. advice) into the mind of the otherwise delluded leader and thereby accomplish practically beneficial results (beneficial from the standpoint of the advisor). Perhaps the best mark of a wise leader is her or his ability to select the right people to be her or his advisor.

No matter at what level one might seek to give advice, whether as a parent to a child, a relative, a friend to another, a boss to an employee, a leader to a people, or an advisor to a leader, providing advice is never without risk to the giver, the receiver and the rest of society and the world. Which is why a relatively wise advisor might seek to provide several options (as opposed to one specific 'solution'), generally with some degree of vagueness, and leave it up to the receiver of the advice to make the final decision, thereby avoiding having to take full responsibility for any unnexpected negative consequences.

In general it can be said that advice requires judgment, and we are always making judgments, whether intentionally or not, whether consciously or not, and our judgments, thus our advice(s), is/are always going to be as imperfect and flawed as our limitations of perception, knowledge, experience and deliberate efforts at taking this very dictum into consideration! The best one can really do is to make every reasonable effort, time permitting, to take into consideration as many variables, as many possible models, ideas and potential outcomes as possible and then give and/or take the advice based on our best hunch, our intuition. Which is why some of the best forms of advice are generalizations that have a lot of room for tolerance.

Perhaps the best general advice of all is this Golden Rule: 'Do unto others as they really want to be done unto, or do nothing unto them at all' ( which is semantically and logically quite different from the more common version which states that one should 'do unto others as one would want done unto oneself'). A healthy, relatively democratic society would be one where practically everyone, especially those with the most authority and/or influence, applies this general advice or Golden Rule.
