Ok, usually, this is how you make a constitution. A philosopher figures out a system or architecture that fits the city, nation or federal state. That was how things was in Sparta, in Athens and most classical cities. Also in Denmark, Grundtvig, the founding father of Denmark, made the idea of the constitution. The reason […]

Ok, what is the good, that the Middle East should really strive for, when we get the peace, that is in our reach now? To understand this, we need to understand what religion is. Religion is a product of the Egyptian pharaoh Akhenaten and put into stone by the great Jewish prophet Moses, a prince […]

Well, to me the proposal of Mr. Netanyahu is the usual brilliance of his work. It is balanced, realistic and will give the deal the right amount of movement. Well done Benyamin. The crown political move of your career. That was top notch. G-d bless the will for Israel to survive. May we prosper.

How is Europe going to compete in the Green Change wave? To me, that rests on the initiative that Denmark/Germany is doing in the north when it comes to Power to X. I am working on a new TV station ptx-tv.dk, my hope, is, that we can, somehow, get the whole technological movement on rails. […]

Ok, let us see if we can analyze on the whole situation in Gaza/Israel. You must commend Mr. Blinken for his amazing engagement in the conflict, trying with all that he has got, to try and find a deal. That is just amazing statesmanship. Actually I was quite sure I would get the Nobel peace […]

Beneath the Torah there seems to be a layer of wisdom, that we have to apply in this war, to make sense of it all. Jews are far away descendants of a diaspora from Scandinavia, so some of the ancient lore of the Scandinavians are possible lore to make for a base of reflection in […]

These days at the Lambeth conference, we discuss the idea of allowing gays and lesbians to be consecrated into marriage. That is a difficult discussion, and hopefully, the conference will come to a conclusion without too much conflict. The whole debacle stems from a discussion on woke, that see gays as a minority, that, among […]

When you loose some in your life, as I have just done due to a divorce, you need to be careful what you do. All of a sudden you have new responsibilities, but also new freedoms. I am conservative, and I am a family loving type of person. I adore my kids, and would do […]

Understanding ethics, or moral virtue, you need to see your life in the glow of spirituality. One of the most splendid or indeed wonderful roots of ethics is the root of Phoenicia. Phoenicia being an ancient culture of commerce, learning and spirituality. When we jews erected the first temple of Israel, we were helped doing […]

Ok, it seems to me, that the Biden administration is finally taking up the idea of doing an advanced, complicated yet possibly successful strategy in foreign policy. This is what we did in the Obama era, and that was, one of the most successful phases of American power. There have been other successful phases of […]

Well, in order to rebuild the American economy, we need to get back on track. As I understand, someone thought it was a good idea to make a normal Keynesian investment in the country. That is, use a lot of money to put people back at work. That is a a way, and another way, […]

It seems to me, that the UK environment generally is getting a bit better. The depression and misfortune has been turned around, and we are working towards brighter times. The basic reason of this development is the fact, that the entire system can now refer to itself, and not to a greater organisational unit. The […]

The sixth French Revolution is on its way. I have sought this for many years, and since it could not come from the top, perhaps this time it will come from the bottom.  I am a total fan of the original French Revolution. As I see it, this is the most important event in European […]

The Brexit process is finally starting in earnest. I suppose it had to be tried, the attempt to get the EU to get an interest in the process from at sound perspective. But this has not been possible, whoever you are, a Brexiteer or a Remainer must simply realize this. This leaves the process at […]

Politics need to be handled by people who know how politics works, otherwise things tend to go to a very bad place. Politics work like this; people tend to see things in terms of a pendulum swings. Power swings in these days from right to left, to right, to left. In a manner of a […]

One of the ways the British intellectual environment can and have to change the narrative of migration, is with a deeper understanding. I have written quite a lot about that here on the blog, and it has created some momentum for Mr. Boris Johnson. To be honest, I do not have a preferred candidate in […]

Regarding til discussion on Islam in the UK. There really is no big debate about it. This is strange, since we have, a long time ago coined Islamic State as the arch enemy of Western Democracies. The same problems we have internationally we also have internally. That is muslims who seek to dominate the constitution. […]

There is a renewed attention to South Africa, and I really support it. The current PM in South Africa Cyril Ramaphosa has just given the green light for a forced destruction of a number of farms that belong to white people. This is pure and disgusting racism. If you see what has happened to some […]

When Rome went from a smallish Italian power to become a world power, it tried to put all the different faiths and creeds under one idea. That idea is called Christianity.  But before that happened, there was something that was exclusively Roman. The idea of discipline and the faith in an ordered universe. After many years […]

In Egypt, there is a rise in anti Christian sentiment. Especially the Copts, who is an ancient Christian group of worship has been hit hard.  The current government of Al-Sisi tries it best to protect the Copts, but the problems persists. Especially ISIS related gangs seems to be targeting the poor Copts with suicide bombers and […]

Great literature usually carries a claim to formulate what is not conscious. The subconscious truths that we all agree upon, but are not ready to speak openly about.  You can shine with the light of the moon or the light of the sun. The moonlight is usually the light of great novels. The philosopher however must […]

I have been reflecting a bit on the ethical stance of the renewed Democratic Party. Why is it so important? There are several reasons. First of all, because being a good person, is in itself important. Goodness or the ability to serve G-d on this green earth, is an imperative for us all. But there are […]

When it comes to development of a liberal perspective, I believe there is a more profound discussion we need to take.  It is about values. What do we really believe in. Virtue is at the heart of all political as well as personal development. According to Isocrates, virtue is the one thing you can never […]

I know, that I have been a bit too supportive of Mr. Trump. But I think it is wise due to two considerations. 1. I truly believe, that the best way to make the best things of Mr. Obamas legacy survive is by cooperation. 2. There was a very true challenge to the system itself […]

​Well, after some kind of guard change, we have come to this. Some of the policies that Barack and I have implemented, most notably the attempt to finish the cold war, has remained in the new administrations view.  The fight against ISIS is also still on, and the fight against China has taken a strange […]

I have been given the opportunity to find a remedy for the liberal trouble in the US. With one of my good friends, I will make a small seminar with a powerful message.  It is my hope, that I will be able to turn the downfall of the Liberals around.  It is all about one […]

There are a lot of signs, that points to the imminent arrival of the Messiah, peace is slowly descending on the Middle East, Israel is thriving, and it seems to me, that there actually is a viable chance that the house of David will indeed be reinstated in the state of Israel.  If we look […]

Well, it was an ok debate yesterday, it was not the prettiest, but it will work.  When we look at the connection to budding Democrats, that tries to learn us about what it is to be young, there is one point we have not truly realized yet, but we need; the fight with Islamic state.  […]

When we live up to the expectations of what we are as Jews. There are no closed doors anywhere. When we do not, we are vilified and hated. That is the way it is. The choosing of us as a people, is not just a blessing, it is, as much, a curse. We have to […]

To develop the world, the world needs to have peace. Otherwise most of the ressources and the ability to invest in the betterment of humanity is forfeit. It is like a lake, if there is war, the ressources are sucked up, the dams breached will take away water. If there is peace, the dams will […]

Everybody loves to hate mr. Lars Løkke Rasmussen, the PM of Denmark. Well, I do agree. I think he is really the most stupid politician in the world. They way he controls the migration, the way he treats me, the way he treats the international opinion, is just stupid. It is a disgrace to all […]

Germany is wavering on the brink of destruction. The far right is waiting for the state to fall, and the state is totally unprepared for the violent onslaught on its institutions. You could say, that it is well deserved, but to me, a sinner is not a word to be used. What we need to […]

There is a lot of discussion on climate change and the responsibility that we as humans have towards the ecological processes in nature. It is not new, it is an old dog, that has been reinvented many times. Many conservatives talk about climate alarmists, and people using these ancient ideas with no real basis. Listen, […]

Human or social engineering as the politicians and the policy makers have been doing the last forty years in Europe is missing a point. You can steer human development into some canyons and riverbeds of development, but there is one thing you have to accept, that you cannot control, and should never control. The most […]

Mr. Netanyahu and I are rarely in agreement, it has come to the point, where mr. Netanyahu sometimes does things, just because I have the opposite intention, at least sometimes it seems like that. But there is no discussion, that we absolutely agree upon the goal; making a safer Irael and realizing the potential of […]

I will have the supreme luck to go to Oxford in a week. I am invited by the Anglican Church, but attending the symposium, there are a number of other faiths. Muslim, Buddhist and even Jews (me). I have been looking forward to the meeting for quite some time now, and the trip has been […]

The East and the West is in confrontation, but the hand of peace is outstretched, and can be taken and shaken. As I understand the latest development. Mr. Putin is ready to recognize the Ukrainian independent state, including the elections that was predominantly won by pro western parties. This is an outstretched hand, and should […]

A friend of mine was just to put to jail in Sweden. Ok I do not know him that well, but one of my close friends, is one his best friends. So we are, in a way closely connected. What was the crime of this friend? Was it to steal? No he has been living […]

I have had a dramatic increase in traffic on the blog, this is off cause good, but it has come to the point where the host is complaining about too much trafic. Today I was shut down for some time. For now I have shut down some statistics tools and this increases the performance of […]

Sunni Muslims in general are extremely afraid of the rise of the Islamic State. It brings a lot of bad press to the Muslim community. And now it is not only the right wing, but also the left wing and centre that supports a forceful crackdown on all who are affilited with IS. What will […]

We are heading for another round against the islamists. Here on 9/11 it is probably a good thing to walk down memory lane a bit. 9/11 was the first wake up call. In this confrontation we realized, that there was a new enemy out there, and mr. George Bush chose to enter into two wars […]

Many thousand years ago, a Viking with the name of Beowulf, Bee wolf, hit the shores of ancient England. There an unimaginable force of deceit and evil was upon the scared ancient Englishmen. A horror called Grendel. Yet again England looks upon its roots for salvation. Yet again the fair men of England is beset […]

Winston Churchill was an adamant criticizer of the rise of Nazi Germany. Many, especially the Americans did not really understand why they should get involved in yet another devastating war in Europe, until they opened the gates of Birkenau and Auswitch. Had we listened to Churchill at an earlier time, things would not have gotten […]

The negotiations are coming to an end, so much prestige is invested, so much is hinged upon this little peace deal. These are my reflections. First of all, things are actually shaping up for the better of Israel. New machines to detect the tunnels are under development, the iron dome defense system is improving. So, […]

In the negotiations with Hamas and Islamic jihad. We should be absolutely realistic, analyze the leverage and aim for a deal on this basis. We have the upper hand, because we did show restraint in the final phase. Add to this a new set of alliances, and the Gazans have a very bad hand. So […]

The liberal part of Israel has changed. I read that Amos Oz actually argued for a certain defense. Because as he said, what if someone attacks you with his own child in his lap? This obviously is not an enemy you can reason with, the stupidity and the absurdity of this way of fighting is […]

Concerning the abduction of the Israeli serviceman, one thing is the implication of the leverage the palestinians get, another thing is the push the Israeli side get from the action in terms of pro Israeli sentiment, a third thing is the strategical considerations. First I think it is, as everything the Palestinians do, avoid of […]

Ok, I hear some rumors, that after the seize fire, a more prolonged and less agressive course will be conducted. Perhaps some of the reflection here regarding the situation and the strategic measures to be taken has helped sway the leaders of Israel. Anyway, here are some added reflections. Winston Churchill did not like Islam, […]

Below is a video that covers the american war on Al-queda using drones. There are a lot of diplomatic and ethical issues to be addressed, but there is no doubt the drones are the future of weaponry. How to adopt it to tunnel warfare? Well to me it seems quite easy to equip some of […]

Ok, I think the high command of israelian forces have realized, that going on as what we have done, is not working. Here are some reflections. First of all, in warfare, the winner is the part with the best strategy it is not always about having the best gear of soldiers, you can turn a […]
