If a society is to succeed, it has to work on an institutional level. The dream of the first pilgrims in the US was about that; the perfect society. This dream has been carried on till today, where idealism is a core virtue in the US. The Americans are so idealistic. The American revolution that […]

The main thing, that Barack and I got right in his presidency, was the relation between the two main parts of the liberal constituency; minority leaders and blue collar workers. This is not easy, as we have seen in the UK, they are often at odds, and if you do not make that balance work, […]

All right, the situation in UK as well as in the Middle East is not really working in anyone’s favor. The alliances there are strained and if we are not careful, ultimately they will break. Yet, as things are unfolding, and Mr. Biden has a more free hand, he may just be able to reel […]

Happy birthday Mr. Barack Obama. It’s been a long run. What I think we really got right, was the balance between worker and minority. It is safe to say, that this has not been easy, and it is still not. Yet, at the core of Unity, lie a bridge between the Union guy and the […]

These days border disputes are really at the heart of the political discourse. In the UK, things are pretty much spinning out of control. I have been trying to figure out at solution to this problem for many years. As in any discussion it is about finding the balance. A balance between accepting migrants and […]

When we talk gender, these days the main reaction against feminism has been hyper masculinity as with Mr. Andrew Tate and a defense for young men’s independence and responsibility as with Mr. Jordan Peterson. My angle has been different, because it is really not a defense of masculinity. Masculinity to me is quite simple, it […]

Well, in the flow of politics, we often loose the aim of the whole endeavor. We tend to look at the short term issues, and loose the main perspective. What is the main perspective? It is to make a society, where people that is the citizens, live a happy life and are content. If they […]

Well, I think that we are onto something in the EU. The vibes I get from the right wing are kind of understanding, and the commission seems to be on it as well. To reiterate; it’s about bending towards each other. Instead of fighting all the time, try to find compromise. Since the head of […]

Well, so now we have this tit for tat situation in Israel. It can swing out of control. We have to look at the long game as well, so that it does not swing out of control. G-d bless the will to stay united in Israel.

Well, it seems like another obamanite is at the helm of the Democratic Party. Again, in the interest of unity, I truly believe, that the other parts of the democratic party should be represented. So please, we need to reach out to the other parts of the party, and include them as well. So, then […]

Ok, let me explain some of the reflection behind my ideas on a better society. When a democracy is born, it is with the best of intentions. The virtues of the ancients are the guiding light of a great nation. Yet, if we do not remind ourselves of these virtues from time to time, rebel […]

Kamala, one of the main things Barack and I have been working on after his presidency, has been to try and unite the country. We truly believe in the virtues of the state. That a healthy state where power is evenly distributed, where the law enforcement work to protect the little guy, where universities and […]

Ok, I guess I am enrolled in the democratic camp. So, how do we win? First of all, why did we loose the last time? I think it was because Hillary just didn’t get the economic points she needed to get over the finish line. We focused a lot on new ideas. Hillary had this […]

All right, let’s see if we can untangle the situation in the Middle East. The Iranian/Russian side have shown some real muscle. The attack on the Druze village, the torture of a hostage and the threat of using some of the real dangerous wmd’s on the battlefield. This is an EXTREMELY dangerous escalation. We are […]

One of the main issues, that we somehow have to wrap our heads around is the INTERNAL debates we need to have around the cultures of our democracies. Mr. Biden made a wonderful example of how politics is supposed to work; selfless, ethical with an amazing character. So that is a good start. Yet, deeper […]

Well, what is really the way to find balance between the federal as well as the national state? First and foremost, it is, for the federal level a matter of showing the citizens of the European Union, that it makes sense. What is it, that the federal level can give the peoples of Europe. When […]

All right, one of the main issues of the EU is the economy. The commission is using my ideas in this regard. Which is, essentially to be realistic about the competition that comes from China. China uses all kinds of tricks to build their economy. A good example is the ev market that these days […]

Benyamin, that was an amazing speech, no doubt about it. The vibrant points, the historical links and most important, the renewed friendship between Israel and the US. Very, very good. I heard, that before the speech, there has been rumors about a peace treaty, so that aspect was not IN the speech, but you mentioned […]

Joe, it really a shame that you end your term, yet I understand, and the way you have done it, is just admirable. What is at the core of a Democracy? It is honesty, integrity, putting your nation above yourself. These qualities, are essential for a democracy to work. Especially when things are not looking […]

Ok, so I have been reflecting over the EU. I know, that we have to get the process going, both the National as well as the Federalists are getting a bit impatient. I do apologize, the reason why I have been unfocused on the issue, is simply my situation. It is very difficult to make […]

So, my debate on the mix that the system of law is doing of politics into the law system seems to have made its way into the American election. Robert F. Kennedy jr. is taking about Snowden, and I guess that Trump is pretty keen on getting the system to respect his candidacy. I hope […]

All right, so there is a new nominee for the liberal camp in the US. Ms. Kamala Harris, she is very good, so let’s see how we may make some kind of manifesto that will make sense in the US. In the UK Mr. Starmer is working old school Obamanism. It seems to work quite […]

Joe, I am so so sorry. I wish I have had the energy and focus to support you some more. I feel partially responsible. If I had the focus, maybe I could have pulled you through. Though to be honest, it is definitely wiser to pull the stops now. To be realistic about your energy […]

Well, we need to get the police under control. They have been persecuting me, and are obviously busy persecuting people they think are not good for society. Essentially I have no idea why they are doing this. Political control has no place in a democratic society. Tyrannies and dictatorships are home for police control of […]

I have been on the sharp end of governmental persecution for many, many years. It can be worse, I know a guy who has been in and out of prisons for putting up provocative stickers and another one who have just been sentenced to 1 1/2 year of prison because he put some paint on […]

All right, so we are kind nearing the end of one crisis, and we need to help at another place to make things work. My feeling is, that mr. Netanyahu will start the peace process for real next Wednesday. He is addressing the congress in the US, and that kind of news will get him […]

You know, when you make ideas and propose new developments of society, then more often than not, it just falls apart, and you become a failure. The EU is experiencing this moment right now. Most of the ideas that it is based on, just doesn’t work. I am not saying this to be negative, it […]

We are at this pivotal moment in politics. For the last 15 years, I have, more or less, run the show in coming up with new ideas to how we should change politics. It has come to a point, where everybody is kind of doing my game. First of all, this is not a “yes […]

I think we need to understand the complexity of the gender debate, to truly understand, why and what we are supposed to do in this day and age. The virtue is equality. Equality is virtue of gender, at least it has been this since Karl Marx deduced it from the platonic lore he read, and […]

It seems to me, that there is this moment of reconciliation and recognition of our political opponents. Maybe, just maybe we can set aside the perceived differences for a time, and find some unity. If we look at the content of the political divide, there is not much difference. We have to get the borders […]

These are my own experience with living under a lot of stress due to my political work. I have a lot of enemies. Some covert, some open. The current foreign minister is an enemy and I have entertained you with my experience with the PET, the secret service. First of all. It is a choice, […]

Why is it, that we are not going into the peace negotiations with a clear mission to get hostages back? I get it, there is the motivation to destroy Hamas. Yet, why? What is the end goal? What if we destroy Hamas, will that make us safer? We have destroyed empires, yet we have never […]

Oh my g-d political violence, again. First of all, I know exactly how you feel Mr. Trump, I have myself been through the same for the last 15 years. I have managed to survive, but the rest of my friends have either been shot, put in jail or silenced in some other way. I came […]

Ok, let’s have a look on the current development in the political sphere. My last book “Eden” seems to have an impact on the whole “post war” discussion in Israel. How do we make sure, that Israelis do not divulge into pit fights, and the unity that was created in the aftermath of 7’th October, […]

Well, I have been pondering the possibility to make a film a bit more. These are some of my reflections. First of all, the setting could be a voyage. One of the main themes of story telling has been the voyage of going from somewhere to somewhere. The Odyssey one of the first stories of […]

When we talk about Hollywood, and my ambition to make a film. I truly believe, that it has to have something to do about love, romance and finding that person that truly lifts us up. We have been through a long movement of Meetoo, which has, in many ways been amazing and truly positive. Yet […]

These are my reflections on the issue of the Haredi draft. My angle is the historical philosophical. Where do we Jews come from, and hence, how can we siphon some kind of understanding concerning a certain issue. We Jews are coming from Scandinavia, originally, at least this is my own conclusion after doing a lot […]

Ok, let’s see, if we can analyze on the current situation in Israel. First of all, Gallant seems to head the government now. It’s his ideas that are implemented. Netanyahu wanted to excempt the Haredi in the military, Gallant was against, so now there is a Haredi enrollment. When Israel communicates with the US it […]

Ok, I have just watched the inauguration speech of Mr. Starmer, well done. That was actually an inspiring and beautiful speech. I have really tried to figure out, how to keep our democracies healthy and sound. So, together with Barack, we have kind of made a utopia in the sense, that what we believe will […]

Ok, so the power had shifter in the UK. The conservatives are out, and the social democrats are in. First of all, I have been a companion of the conservative rule ever since Cameron. So, it is bittersweet, that the Conservatives have lost. Yet, this is politics. You win some, and you loose some. At […]

When I did a lot of the peace building in the Middle East ten years ago, it was a peace building that was based on the shared legacy and culture of the Middle East. We are all heirs to the culture that has shaped most of humanity. Law, the republic, trade, religion, royalty, are all […]

Guys, I just want you to thank you for the support, that you all have been doing for a long time. When you are really in need of help, it is often a huge surprise that it comes. And when it comes, it feels like true love and friendship. You did not have to. Yet […]

It seems to me, that the EU is interested in my peace project in the Middle East. I did apply for a project that would encapsulate the entire project after the peace is won. I think, that when we get to October that is the deadline of the project, probably the peace will be in […]

Well, it seems to me, that whenever we talk about the HONOR of the Palestinian Arab, things seem to move ahead. I have been pondering it a lot. The fight that is most apparent is the fight for freedom of that of the Gazan Arab, yet honor seems to me, to be MORE important than […]

Ok, here is an idea about a movie we may make. What about a movie about the fight that democracy is in, when it tries to avoid going from democracy to tyranny, that is the normal course of a democratic development. A bit inspired by Star Wars, that is the same story, of the republic, […]

Malia, happy birthday to you. Such a fine young woman. I have been a kind of looking over your dad’s shoulders when he was president and after. So I have witnessed the profound love he has had for you all of those years. He never missed a dinner when he was president, he prioritized you […]

I believe, that mirroring the idea of paradise seen from a western perspective with the idea of paradise from an Indian perspective will tell us a lot about our own striving. Indians have an idea of an afterlife called Brahman or Atman (according to Grønbech). This paradise is very different from a western or European […]

There is this discussion on Netanyahu and his “Messianic” zeal. I have been friends with Bibi for many years, we did a lot of collaboration in his first tenure. So he is a friend. Yet it’s true, there is some kind of amiable competition. In a sense that is fine, I mean, Benyamin Netanyahu has […]

It seems to me, that I kind of is accepted in the international vip artist community. I really appreciate that, because of a host of issues, good and bad. Usually when someone wish to talk they invite me to all kinds of things. The politicians invite me to Davos, that is a meeting where all […]

Concerning princess Charlotte, my way of doing things may be a little untraditional, but I have been thinking a lot about the pressure, that my own children Rakel and Esther are in for, if I end up being the king of Israel. What I have done is essentially to really downplay the role. I have […]
