There are very few who actually defend the legacy of mr. Barack Obama. Why is that? I mean in these times where American power is diminished by the hour, why not learn from the one who actually did succeed with making America an international leader? This is not to diminish mr. Trump, he does his […]
It has been some years after the peace process mr. Barack Obama made in the Middle East was concluded, and it is time to draw back a little, and thing about the pros and cons of it. What went wrong, and what suceeeded? First of all, we did succeed making peace with the Sunnis. This […]
The great president of one of my favourite countries is due to a visit in Denmark. Mr. Macron, president of the fifth republic of France. A peacemaker and a possible reformer. France and Denmark have many things in common, one of them the fight for liberty and justice. The French Revolution had a heavy impact […]
It is very difficult for the UK to tackle all the problems that muslim migration has given to the fair isles. First of all, not doing anything will not do. Doing too much will not do either. As I have said, doing the right thing is all important. Many muslims are just living a good […]
Well, after a long trip to my family in Banglandesh, I have a little blogging to catch up with. First of all, there seems to be like two camps in the Democratic party right now, that of the Clintons, and that of Obama. Let me be absolutely clear about my stance on this. I do […]
There has been a lot of discussion in the US concering Denmark. The Obamas fell in love with us, and we have always loved you. So mr. Krugman, a very good economist has been to Denmark, and said some things about us. That made a news anchor at Fox news say some hard truths about […]
Well, that was quite a ruckus due to a small and insignificant comment on Islam by Mr. Johnson. But, seriously? Mr. Johnson DEFENDED the right of Muslim women to wear the burka, and then he got all this criticism. As any subject in the political discourse that is essential to discuss, off cause one needs […]
The great difficulty in trying to counter the threats that radical Islamist is confronting most of the Western world with, is trying to find the line between too much and too little. Everybody agrees, that terrorism, that is direct attacks on different targets in the West is not acceptable. Being it the car attacks, rapes […]
There are things going on i Europe, that is going to change us. The changes are a consequence of the radical physical changes that Europe is seeing. So, what we conclude these days, are very important not only for us, but also for the future generations. As when France went from aristocracy to democracy, those […]
Mr. Tommy Robinson, the former leader of EDL, now free journalist has finally been freed from jail. Let me say it like this, that was a crime against humanity. Putting the poor sod into solitary confinement, leaving him at the mercy of radical Muslims. Seriously? I understand, that there are a lot of problems in […]
In the last ten years, I suppose my ideas have made a huge impact on the world, the West is finally having a turn around, and we are back. But it would not have been possible without the friendship I have with Mr. Barack Obama. Right now, he is pretty much in trouble in terms […]
The current climate of debate in the UK is not good. The difficulty in challenging the problems on an enlightened basis is not really there. And the few persons that actually try to talk about the problems, they live a hellish live. But there is no other way around it. You need to try and […]
Discussing difficult things take a lot of courage, but to truly Change a society, you need to be able to do just that. As a platonic philosopher, with Socrates as my guiding light, I KNOW that difficult issues are thorny and often deadly to discuss. But one needs to do it anyway, to remake and […]
England is suffering, the young are in danger, and the acid is flowing in the bottles, ready to be thrown at anyone, even children. This is difficult, and I understand, that many intellectuals in England are wont to challenge these difficulties, and do not wish to get their careers burdened with too much heavy accusing […]
Well concerning the Iran deal. I made it, and I did hope to get the support of the EU in the keeping of the deal. The EU however is slowly melting down, and is not capeable in turning the boat around like the US has done. So, in essence, it is not a serious partner […]
Mr. Bannon is trying to influence the EU, or Europe with a new think tank. Well, that is good and all, but seriously, Breibart (the blog network Mr. Bannon was born in) was spawned as a reaction to the Mohammad cartoon crisis ten years ago. So in many ways then the US was influenced by […]
Well, this is essentially the last wake up call for the European Union, either you write me a mail and give me a budget for the renaissance of the project or it is finished. The Iran peacedeal is moving, and you haven’t even started your own process yet. So WAKE UP! Write me a mail […]
The European Union is not getting things turned around. It seems to me, that the will is slowly materializing. But the true will to do something has to come. It is the leadership that is the problem. Mr. Junker seems to be a positive and honourable man. He means well, but we need some decisive […]
I am getting more optimistic, as mr. Trump develops his presidentship internationally. The meeting with mr. Putin seems to be an all out victory. Peacedeals, a deal on Syria, renewed communications between the US and Russia. These are all good signs. Why? Because Russia is not really an enemy anymore. Yes, it is a competitor, […]
The Middle East is not really in my hands anymore. When I worked with mr. Obama, he used my ideas, and consequently brought some peace to the Middle East. The Iran deal is lauded as the most successful attempt at making peace in the Middle East. But mr. Netanyahu wanted otherwise, and convinced mr. Trump. […]
Things are really changing in Europe, whether the politcal elite wants it or not. Essentially these are the ideas, that I had to happen to make ten years ago, that is really wreaking havoc in the political elite. Now even the American president is in on it, not making it very easy to keep to […]
When we went from a Frankfurterschool liberalism to an Obama liberalism, what was the change essentially? As I see it, the essential change was to move from a pretty simple way to look at the world, onto a much more detailed and civilised way of looking at the world. The Frankfurterschool believes that the minority […]
Nothing happens in the EU that is planned. Everything is just quenching one fire after the other. That is what you usually call reactive behaviour. You react to what happens to you, you are not proactive. That is planned on what you do. Everybody else in this competition of global dominance are proactive. They try […]
I know, that mr. Trump is not that popular in Europe. But, at the other hand, he is still European in his descent, his family came from Germany, and he is VERY European in his way of doing things. Maybe he is more Icelandic than haute couture. But he is still one of us. Therefor, […]
The trade war with China is not really working, this is why. First of all, you need to see it from the perspective of Adam Smith. Adam Smith coined the way we do international trade today. He believed that, if the trade is free, it will give everybody a good chance to compete with each […]
The way back as a dominant power in the world, is extremely difficult. There are no easy fixes, but rather a number extremely hard decisions we need to do to carry on. The challenges are numerous, and the resources we have are not scarce, but very difficult to use, due to the lack of faith […]
It must have been a long night discussing the new approach to migration in Europe. To be honest, there is not much new in the deal, but that is really not the true good thing coming out of the meeting. The good thing is, that the Union is actually going from apathy and indecision to […]
When I grew up in place called Avedøre Stationsby, I grew up with the consequences of minority ideas made up byt the Frankfurterschool. My mom married a nice guy from Bangladesh, but he left her, so she was a divorcee in a rough neighborhood. This neighborhood was full of “minorities”, people from the Middle East, […]
A lot of the problems that is in the world right now, is due to shortsighted politics. Especially the humanists of different colors are not realistic about the challenges that face the world at large, and especially the western world. I am a humanist, not only am I a humanist, I think I would define […]
Ok, now the plan for a possible reform has been finished and send into the EU system. If the commission wants to speed up the process, I know there are ways to do this. Please consider this. The whole system is almost falling apart, and we need action immideatly. There are a vast numbers of […]
Well, here we are, at the potential end of the European Union. Let me be clear about the cause of this crisis. It is not about extreme rightwing populism. It is the effect of very poor political work of the European Union, and the rest of the political establishment. I mean, everybody knows, that the […]
Usually the great leaps of development in Europe has been done by different kinds of magus, strange esoteric persons and alchemists. People like Jung and Freud who invented psychology, Newton who reintroduced mathematics and physics in mainstream, Paracelsus who is modern father of medicine and so on. We have a long tradition for a kind […]
Now, the challenge of China is not the first time a superpower is challenged by an upcoming power. There are numerous examples. Egypt and Libya in the classical time. Persia and the Greek. The Romans and the Phoenicians and so on. So there are many examples to learn from in this actual challenge by the […]
Congratulations mr. Trump, well done. I never saw it coming, but making a peace deal with North Korea as just as big a deal as when I did it with Iran. Same, same. This is my experience with the Iran deal, that you may use with the North Korea deal. First of all, you need […]
One very important balance, that we have not done well in the European Union, is the balance between the different nation-states and the former colonies. Take the UK. The UK has a lot of history with many countries around the world. Chile for one, New Zealand, Australia, Indonesia and so on. The same goes for […]
The world is changing down paths I did not forsee. I had planned for a turn around of USA, now it seems, that the true turn around is the EU. With the latest news from the G7 or whatever it is called, the cards are thrown in the air, and seem to land all in […]
Mr. Tommy Robinson, the working class hero of England, has been detained once again due to criticism of the reign of terror certain migrants put the hapless young working girls through. Seriously, all the man is saying is the truth. I support mr. Robinson, because telling the truth is what our democratic constitutions are all […]
One of the problems of the current EU administration, is the fact, that it does not really know why it is there. I mean, what is the purpose of the EU? As the structure decomposes, the motivation for the project becomes less and less apparent. What we need, among other things, is to discuss why? […]
To make a constitution, in the classical time, great philosophers roamed the known world, gathering knowledge and then designing a system that would ensure the stability of the Polis. As Lycurgus, who made the constitution that Sparta was built on. He roamed the then down world, and created a closed system that worked for 700 […]
Concerning the EU progression. I have now found the relevant fund, and will soon try and apply for some funding for the development of a reform of the EU. I will write the application as a series of essays, that I will publish here at Rubicon, in this way the EU system will get a […]
As Europe Change its priorities, we need to ask ourselves; what about the European Union bureaucracy? As I see it, we need to reform it. So that it is much more flexible, more focused on each country, and work for the betterment of each citizen. This process is possible, and I can do it. But […]
Things are changing rapidly in terms of power in Europe. But let us be a bit realistic about our means and ends. The great challenge for european powers, has been the influx of migrants. This we have not been able to tackle. So far the only method has been to spread the migrants in the […]
In Europe, we are used to be unchallenged to our domain of power. That is intellectual prominence, military dominance and level of organization. That has changed dramatically in the last 60 years. As we have been licking our wound after the second world war, the rest of the world has developed at a rate that […]
Both the US and Israel does not have much respect for the European powers. We deserve that, by being complacent, and believing that we did not have to do anything to keep our power, we have become old, slow and static. That is not what we are, we are vibrant, we have the best thinkers, […]
When I started my “career” or whatever you can call it. It was as a reaction to the mess that the former generation had created of Europe. I read “The rise and fall of the great Powers” by Kennedy, and I realized, that the EU was the least probable to make it through the next […]
Congratulations Italy, with the new government. This is the first time, that a country has had a true philosophical Change since the movement began in Europe. So it will be very interesting to see how we fare, may spirit be with us. First of all, you have a mountain to climb, and you need common […]
Change is a discipline that is essentially positive. My predecessor Alinskys wanted to make a world where minorities were protected, because that was the problem in his time. You can discuss whether this was just manipulation and so on, but I believe, that Alinskys tried his best. When I took over in the Obama era, […]
To make a system that actually work in europe, we need to take the best things of the Obaman Change and redesign it for Europe. If we look at Europe, we need to accept, that the loyalty to the Nations within Europe will not change. So we need to work with that. Instead of trying […]
Well it seems to me, that the EU bureaucracy is actually listening to what I prescribe. Perfect, this will make us able to turn the downfall around. It will be difficult, but not impossible. First of all, we should consider the difference between the US and the European Union. The difference is in particular the […]
I think, it is pretty obvious, that the current EU system does not work. The reason why? Because essentially a lot of bankers and rich people initiated the project and has tried to sustain it. It is an elitist project that does not see things from the perspective of the common man. This creates a […]
