Regarding Justified Violence vs. Unjustified Violence

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!

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.

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....

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!

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

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!

Letter To A Nostalgic Friendly

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

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,

Mr. John Hill Seems To Be A Dangerous Fool

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.

An Open Letter To Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, etc.

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

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!

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)

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!
