There has been a lot of rumours going about, about why the West attacks the IS, and the motives behind. So, it was my idea, so you should ask me. Did I do it to foster another world war or have some psychopathic evil scheme. Well there was a scheme, and the scheme was, quite […]

When Barack and I first came out with the idea for an IS fight, I was, as then and now, very inspired by the Peloponesean war. That war, was a war between Athens (democracy) and Sparta (communism). One of the really interesting occurrences of that war, was an incidence that happened in the mid of […]

There is a lot of personalities and moral judgement invested in this third world war we are witnessing. Why is it called a “third world war”? I mean, the war between communist Russia and democratic US was a war as well. Why was this not the third world war? Because this is a war now […]

Now, there has been a lot of talk, especially on the republican wing, that mr. Barack Obama does not have a strategy when it comes to fighting Islamic State. I truly beg to differ, Obama and I have worked on this for many years now, all the way back from when we started the Arab […]

I live with what one would regard as a “white” girl as a wife. My little girl Rakel has brown eyes and golden hair, my mother was one of those long legged blond beauties that Denmark and Scandinavia is so famed for. My father was, by Bangladeshi standards, quite light in his skin. So, as […]

I must say, that I really support mr. Vladimir Putin in the outrageous downing of a Russian plane. It is a direct attempt at fanning the flames for another cold war. I hope that Turkey does not succeed in this attempt. There should be repercussion, and there probably will be. I hope NATO accepts this […]

We are, most of us, the children of Rome. Rome fell in around 3 – 400 AC, because it basically was swallowed up be greed and disturbing inefficiency. At that very last stage, when the barbarians stood at the gates, they kind of tried to relink to the very basis of what Rome was; a […]

When Voltaire and Rousseau installed what we today know as a democracy, they off cause knew that it is not perfect. You can read the books of Plato and Aristotle, and it will become quite clear. But they forgot to implement the defence against the rise of the tyrant. As Isocrates say, the problem of […]

The days of peace in Europe are over, we have to realise this. If we just do what we have done so far, it will continue downhill. The problems have become so monstrous, that dealing with them now is almost impossible. But leaving the problems for another ten years will put Europe in a state, […]

Now, we are all rethinking the strategies that we have to use to stop the onslaught on westerne societies by islamist holy warriors. You say that development is going from one extreme to the other. We have had one extreme that now pulls us in the other direction; open borders. The Schengen is what really […]

A man will be able to foresee the future if he has wisdom. This is how it is. When we talk about the rise of Islamism in Europe, please let me ask you to recall who actually started this fight. It was Barack Obama. He defined the enemy as militants that fight for sharia and […]

People are asking themselves these days; how did we end up here? With war on the soil of Europe. We did all we could to hinder this development, to the extent that we sold all we had to reach that dream of a borderless world, where all would live in harmony. Well, as all other […]

It is with a heavy heart and tears in my eyes I write this. I just knew, that it would happen. I have been planning for this for years and years. But now when it happens, it makes me feel inadequate. I should have done more, why could I not stop this. But, the point […]

There is a lot of genius in the strategic considerations of the sunni rebels we are fighting. We should not underestimate them. First the flooding of Europe by both IS fighters and hapless refugees is a stroke of genius and tearing Europe apart. Supported by liberal media, this is a huge blow to the West. […]

There is a lot of turmoil in the Middle East, but if you look a bit beneath the screaming and yelling, as it has always been in that illustrious part of the world, we can see, that the deeper structures of the conflict are actually aligning quite well. The main event is actually the cooperation […]

The US is not bad. Barack, Joe and I have lifted it, and things are chugging on. But as old dogs of war put their beaten hands down, new stars must rise. In this process, one must ask oneself, what to do? I believe that Pope kind of tried to help the US, not by […]

There is a lot of discussion, especially in the liberal part of the American political world about Denmark. Hillary Clinton even said, that she loves Denmark. Guess what? We love you too 🙂 The thing is, we as you are, and yet we are different. But the similarities far outweighs the differences. We are older […]

In the ongoing crisis in Europe regarding the migration from Africa and the Middle East, it is time to take this serious. We need to understand, that we need to move, now. I do not like the European Union, I thinks it is against all that Europe traditionally stands for; human rights, transparency, the rule […]

Many Jews are a bit worried about the renewed violence of the West Bank and the Gaza strip. Rockets are flying again, and the frame of a new intifada is shaping up. I would not be so worried, in fact, the thing that the rest of the world is not really caring, is a good […]

Things are starting to get up in gear, everywhere, where I have had the opportunity to put my mark, or rather to try and help. Israel, Europe, the US, Russia, and especially the Middle East. Denmark, is also in tatters. Yesterday someone threatened to kill the PM, and the chaos is growing rapidly, as most […]

There is a lot of things coming into place these days. The entire plan is coming to fruition. First of all, it is with great happiness, that I see Germany finally shedding its shackles of the second world war, and finding itself again. The understanding of Germany as a normal, but very strong country, is […]

Now in january, there is a synod coming up, where all the leading bishops of the Anglican church are meeting. This is a pivotal moment, where the Anglican church will either break or hopefully continue on a more happy course of reconciliation. Now, what will do it? There is a huge difference between the parts […]

The wartorn Syria has spilled refugees all over Europe. This we have to take a responsibility for. I have worked on a solution to this, that includes a beefed up presence in the vicinity of Syria. Let us do that. I know, that I will not be at the table. This should be clear now. […]

These days, it is the ten year anniversary for the Mohammad cartoon crisis. In a strange way, we revisit all he feelings and all the mental turmoil of that time, and in a way we see who the real enemies are; the weak and traitorous European states and what we have seen as “Islamic State”. […]

Well, after all the chaos of the discussion of the 160.000 refugees/migrants, at least Europe is stepping in the right direction. Here are my recommendations. 1. Doing things in the Middle East is like putting your hand inside a wasps nest. It is a hive of minds so ancient we have no idea, or rather, […]

At the synod in the Anglican church, we need to focus on two things. One; how to heal a fractured church, that feels alienated internally. Healing is here the answer. That is, trying to reach each other in dialogue, and also try and heal the wounds of controversies in earlier times. Two; there is the […]

I think each church, synagogue or mosque should find something in the lore of the monotheistic religions for themselves. Conditions change, and what will work here, will not work there, or the other way around. But there are some of those themes, that are universal, and all houses of worship should remember from time to […]

According to the german philosopher Schopenhauer, inquiry into something may rest on an honest basis, that is trying to find truth, or rest un an basically primitive and self-aware basis, that is to win the argument. Here we have the sophists on one hand, and the true academics on the other hand. He argues, in […]

It seems to me, that the cards are played differently this time. As we wind down the road, fighting IS, it actually happens that this cause will unite us all. The atrocities, the immoral behaviour is obvious to all. It comes to the extreme that it might actually solve the Syrian crisis. If we can […]

In order to end the refugee streaming over the borders, a good cooperation with Assad and a hospitable understanding in the vicinity is important. We should ask Assad what he thinks. I mean, it is his citizens that are fleeing the horrors of his country, so we need to understand what he would like us […]

Now, the downfall of the European Union should not stop the peace process in the Middle East. I know that these two things are interconnected, but, a major war for a caliphate by Islamic State in Europe, is not exactly the best PR stunt for Islam. Islam is, as any other religion prone to go […]

The entire EU is under an immense pressure, and as mr. Jean-Claude Juncker said, the bells are tolling. The tools that I have given will work, but it will only take off the pressure, all the inherent problems of islamic extremism and the works, will still be there, and it will grow worse and worse […]

My feeling is, that there is a bit of movement in my bid to start a cooperation with the UNHCR. It would make sense, if I was an employee or an ambassador, I could reach out to all the players in the Middle East, and start the peace process in earnest. Many in Iran see […]

Politics according to Seneca, is about seeing things as they are. If we make our decisions based on how we would like it to be, we make wrongs assumptions. But if we make decisions based on truth, we make good decisions. Now, concerning the ongoing debate on migration. We have come some way. My basic […]

There is a lot of discussion going on in the wake of the tsunami of refugees in Europe. As mr. Putin have said; it is not something we should be surprised about. If you invite people, well, then they tend to come. The problem is just, that the entire Schengen system has made it possible […]

It is a bit of a problem if we are controlled too much by the dark side of media. Just because the media are trying to rule by using emotional images, we should not heed to this kind of mob rule, because that is really all it is. There is not much reflection in a […]

There is one country that, above all, has to face its own demons. Germany. As it annihilated most of the Jews just sixty years ago, this crime against us Jews, is hard to forgive. But, this does not, at the other hand, justify the elimination of Germans. I do not think that it will come […]

The discussion on the migrant crisis is ongoing. Look at it this way, there is only one serious solution right now. That is the rise of European sponsored nations in the Middle East. I understand, that the European Union and Germany is fighting for a more fair dissipation between the entire European continent of refugees. […]

Tackling the migrant crisis is extremely difficult, especially for Germany with its history of persecuting the Jews. Not helping refugees will call back all those years where the Jews were under fire, the Shoa. Now, I like Germany. I have been there many, many times, especially with my samba dancing group. In fact I feel […]

Concerning the crisis of migration, I think it is a good idea to take a step back, and look at things with calm. I have just finished the stoic work of the Roman Seneca about peace of mind. I think it has a number of principles we can use to tackle the crisis. First of […]

I may have got an opening in my quest to find a decent job, that may actually make it possible for me to guarantee my service to the international agreement in the Iran deal. To make it work in the long run, I need to be more than just a gifted blogger boheme, and actually […]

I am an academic, but not one of the usual ones. Usually academics are in churches, universities or other schools. Working with education and research that is to the good of the society. Since our societies are on a very downward course, these days it is difficult to be in a university. The academic level […]

It is difficult to be true in politics. All the pressure, all the interests that is vested in your person and what you do. Lobbyism or journalism is always there to try set their agenda, not your agenda. True friendship is very, very rare, and almost no one is clean. This is truly the root […]

The world is both like an oyster and on a path to hell. At one end, we have all the possibilities of a new world. At the other hand, we have the hell that is upon us with Islamic State. It is like an endless void blistering with light. Finding those lights, and navigating the […]

Sometimes antisemitism takes its strangest forms, and the jews targeted can be anything. This time it was a musician, one of my favourites in fact. He courageously went on singing with his heart about Jerusalem in the face of anger and ridicule. Will it ever stop? No, but as always, there are courageous Jews who […]

Reading the exquisite platonic dialogue Meno, I stumbled upon a principle, that may enlighten the debate about evil and good in our current societies, and may give us an inkling as to why the Islamic State has such stupendous success. According to Plato, or Socrates, evil is the effect of stupidity or lack of knowledge. […]

It seems to me, a kind of a “New conservatism” has begun to emerge. As we have left the Thatcherian concepts of solely free market, and the fight against Communism, we are now entering a phase of a more balanced Smithsonian economic philosophy, where national production is balanced with free market theory. This in practice […]

I remember, I had this dream before the last Gazan war. It was terrible, in short it was a nigthmare about the fall of the West. At that time, Israel was not, except for mr. Netanyahu, cognizable about the threat the last Gazan war was to the entire West, it was a turning point. We won, […]

There has been talking about using the British forces and some kind of pedagogical instrument to sway young Muslims over in the direction of the crown. Listen, this is folly. Not all Muslims are extremists, but you need a wing of the government that you can rely on hundred percent. We may soon see a […]

I believe we have come to at point, where we can safely say, that the West will prevail. Before Obama, there was serious doubt about the outcome, and there was a very real possibility, that the entire structure of the West, or rather the remaining structure of the British empire would collapse. That is the […]
