Well, the fall of Aleppo is bad news for everyone. I know that it weakens the Russian alliance in the Middle East and ultimately Hamas, yet for Israel and the West. This is equally dangerous. With a firm foothold in Syria, resources and logistics will be available for the islamists. This can hit all the way into Europe and the US.
So this is a problem for everybody.
G-d bless the will to be real about the fall of Aleppo.
It is weird in a sense. Half a year ago the whole world was fighting for a ceasefire. Now it is there, and few really care so much anymore.
That was what was my point. As long as there is world focus on a deal the attention itself is actually what hinders the deal.
Now when things have simmered down, peace is within reach.
So that is really good news for the Middle East.
G-d bless the will to find peace in the Middle East.
This is really getting complicated. Elon, you have been a friend for a long time. We have had each others back for many years.
Now you are heading a ministry in the part I actually, with little luck, tried to beat in the election.
I have a a lot of responsibility for the democrats.
I have no idea, how to work this out, but I will do my best.
The issue with the current administration is a Byzantine maze of legislation.
There are loophole upon loophole, a lot of power invested in the different legislative branches.
In other words it is intransparant. So the job is to make the legislative branch transparent.
Your greatest challenge here is, that there is a lot of power invested in the legislative body. So you need to be careful not to ruffle everyone’s feathers.
So my advice would be, based on our experience with X. Make a more long winded process, be honest and clear about your intention; to work on a more transparent legislative process.
Give people time to figure out their power issues and then make a simple, reformed body of legislation.
It’s a huge challenge, yet use your experience and make things simpler and more open.
G-d bless the will to make an open legislative body.
The world changes, and so the leading lights change as well.
I am a musician, not a very good one, since I have mostly focused on writing. I guess if I had chosen that direction when I was younger I could have been a minor celebrity with music here in Denmark.
I am rambling sorry, my point is. In the 70’ties musicians were the leading lights, especially Mr. John Lennon did a lot of very respected things within the left. Fighting for peace, equality and was VERY vocal on different areas within the music business.
His song “Imagine” is STILL the ethos of the left.
Now, this day and age, the media has changed, and there are therefore new stars and other modes of development.
I am hands down, really tired of only getting anywhere by blogging. I am a philosopher, we are supposed to be heard by our books.
I have very little luck in that department. Yet I still write the books, because books forces you to think through the solutions you propose.
I just have to finish my climate manifesto.
One of the main differences between me and Lennon is in the subject matter. While as he was famous for making music, I am famous for writing.
So this shifts the dynamics to thought and deep philosophical musings. John did write books, but he had a few drawbacks. One of them was, that he didn’t know about the secret service and their methods.
Another was, with respect, that he didn’t REALLY know about the frame around our states and the metaphysical ideas.
So, the 70’ties called for a change in the musical sphere, now it’s in the internet. This calls for Change by philosophy. This again starts to tie into the ideas that are there already. Marx, Hegel, Aristotle, Plato.
This mode, in our time is then quite different from the 70’ties.
This is said with a tremendous respect for John Lennon, he was really cool. I respect him a lot.
It is just an analysis of the difference in each age.
G-d bless the memory of the musician John Lennon.
If you want me to continue working on the EU, then by all means I will do it. I can fix it. Yet before I even consider doing anything. Then you must cover my expenses.
I am not doing anything before you make that happen.
G-d bless the will for the EU to pay for what my work is worth. Not more not less.
Ok, I just want you to be a little realistic about the scope of the power of the EU.
There is very little power. There is no army. You just ditched the most promising attempt there has ever been, because of some minor disagreement. So there will not be an army.
Add to this, there will soon be a dangerous president (seen from a European perspective). (I have personally nothing against Trump or any other Americans). But Trump has absolutely no respect for the European Union. Essentially the only person he had any amount of respect for in the EU is my humble person.
So he will probably make some kind of deal with Mr. Putin, so he can focus on China.
So what is it, that you are trying to accomplish, and why on earth are you aleniating the sole person that actually gives you an edge in the international game.
It’s mind boggling in its scope of weird.
So send me another bill, just to underscore, that you don’t like me. Just know, that with this you are objectively reducing your chance at playing any kind of role in the Ukraine war, significantly.
G-d bless the will to reduce the risk of the third world war. May we finally reach some kind of normal reason.
My feeling is, that the European front has calmed down a bit. I know this is difficult to turn away from.
Yet from all perspectives. The EU, the US (with the new president) and also the loss of Russian and Ukraine lives, peace is preferable.
I know it kind of cost us the solidification of the EU, but there is still time. It’s not over.
So, I know that talking for peace and reconciliation is a precarious endeavor sometimes. It cost me also. Yet, look a few years ahead. What do you see there; a Europe in flames, or a Europe that is filled with happiness and progress?
Happiness and progress requires peace.
The EU has ALWAYS been a peace project. In these horrible and challenging times, lest not forget that.
G-d bless the will to find peace amid horrible circumstances and visions of a third world war on European soil.
This is a message to his highness, the crown prince of England.
I know that there has been a lot of separation between you and Harry.
At the end of the day, family is the most important. We make mistakes, and we try and mend.
Harry did a lot of stupid things. Just, this is for Harry. Hollywood has its lures, yet a good old fashioned loyal stance to your family is a good thing.
I know, that being second is hard. But please. Look at your strengths instead of your weaknesses.
Finding a way to communicate here before Christmas is important I think.
Christmas is an important time for family.
So, relax Harry. You have so much potential. So much to make of your life.
So, forgiveness is an important virtue, and family IS the most important.
G-d bless the will to find a positive path in the family.
This is a message for the Anglican Church. The important of a church, is for a church to bend its different alignments to a common good.
I know, that there are a lot of difficulties. Yet this time it is much better to relinquish what is perhaps seen as rightful and see how the other is ALSO seeing his view as something rightful. There are always a platform for unity.
Please, see this as the most important.
G-d bless the will to do good, and accept people of different alignments, in the interest of the church as such.
Seriously, I was doing quite well, I was moving forward the green agenda, I had everything going for me. Even the expansion in the EU.
Then the system decides, that this is wrong, and shut my tv station down. Now they just realized the THEY were wrong, and shutting the tv station down was a mistake. A BIG mistake.
So what do they do? They try to do all kinds of chicanery to make me work on things they themselves just shut down.
Seriously 🤦
G-d bless the will to make a better world.
It seems to me, that the EU STILL wants to be a part of the equation. You are more than welcome.
But I mean YOU shut down the project. It is your own actions that leave you out in the cold.
You can get in, very easily. Just support the process, economically.
You are not in any position to make demands, or being generally annoying.
You know, I can just stop working on the project, and there is nothing anyone can do about it. But yourselves, support the process and we will continue.
But this time around, I will not start before you actually put some money on my account. I am not into the stick and carrot method.
So, you choose yourelves. These are my terms.
I will not help you, unless you pay me some money to do it.
Also, to be honest, I am going forward VERY carefully this time around. Building you an army will require a lot of responsibility in your end. Shutting down my project, because I called for peace and reconciliation does not show that you are up to the task, to be honest.
The aim of any political project is to make a better world. Warmongering and destruction without a clear aim does not make the world any better.
So, this is how I feel about it.
G-d bless the will to be friends, and be a bit REALISTIC about how you are doing things in the future. No more pressure.
All right, so what now. The EU ditched my project, there is a new president coming in the White House and consequently I have to remake my strategy.
I thought quite a bit about it. First of all, the last time Trump came to power. He was both very accepting of my ideas, after all he used my economic ideas, and actually won win them. But he also was a bit rejective.
This time however, the situation is quite different. He has been inspired by my fight for peace and reconciliation. We see head to head on this.
Also, we share a good friendship with Netanyahu, Putin and other key players.
Add to this, both Tulsi Gabbard, Robert Kennedy and Elon Musk are politicians that we really share ideas and political ambitions with.
So, I mean, it wouldn’t make much sense to just say, no I dont want to share ideas.
At the other hand. The Democratic Party has been a project for me and Barack for a long time. I owe it to both Barack and Joe, to change the course of the party. They really need my help, and they are friends.
As I philosopher you do not get to choose who will be using your ideas. You make your ideas, and people are using them or not.
I have no control over anything.
So, my take on it, will be to support those developments I find important in the world. BUT I WILL prioritize the Democratic Party.
It is pity with the EU, I have no idea what is happening in their prioritization. It doesn’t make sense. And again, I dont get to choose who will use my ideas, so that is just how it is.
I will off cause support my conservative friends IN the European Union, and see if we can make something that is sound and future proof. My fling with the princess, will naturally move this along.
Anyway, there is a world that needs our progress, and we are getting there. Hopefully this Trump presidency will turn the tables, and make the West have a comeback. Let’s call us come back kids.
G-d bless the will to make a better world.
Concerning the debate on the next archbishop of the Anglican Church. Here are some reflections, that may be at service for the church.
First of all, generally speaking, everybody has been quite happy with his eminence rev. Justin Welby.
He has been a breath of fresh air. Why? He has faith.
Not everybody agrees with all of his eminence ideas, there seems to be a rift between the mainly African part of the church and the British.
However the Africans were really satisfied with his eminence FAITH. Having a man of a strong faith, which has actually served him with renouncing his elevated station, has strengthened the church as such.
A man of a strong conviction is much better than a man with a weak conviction.
So that is something to use as a guide mark. His eminence is a very good man. Everybody recognizes this.
Then there is a more political point one needs to think about. The rift between the different factions were actually healed SOME by the eminence. Why? Because he is respected for his sincere goodness and everyone recognizes his positive intention.
He was a bridge builder, and he was fairly fine doing it.
The rift between the different factions of the church is however an ongoing issue, so a bishop that has this at heart is very important.
So a man of faith, with the ability to reconcile and build bridges.
G-d bless the will to find a good man to be the bishop of the Anglican Church. May he heal and reconcile.
I am reading this book on Google AdWords, and I kind of sparked a train of thoughts, that gives me a deeper understanding of what it is, that I am doing here on the blog.
Bear with me, while I try to relate.
I the internet there is, generally, only one leader. Google is the leader of search, Amazon is the leader of selling, and so on. Facebook is the leader of blog social media.
As there is so little friction in the internet, everybody naturally gravitates towards the best app or service. Because all services are available.
This is what Rubicon is for politics. It’s the best political entrepreneur there is, and probably will be for some time to go.
So why settle with the second best, if you can have the best.
This actually feeds back into the electorate. They want the politicians to follow what I do, because they also want the best.
In Denmark, after the current government shut my tv station down, and I stopped supporting them. The electorate got REALLY pissed. They are used to my level, and the second best is just annoying.
So they dump the government, and now the current government want to make me work again, but for that to happen, there is a long path of rebuilding what the current government tore down.
Something is happening, there is the possible book deal. But there is still a long way to go.
So, for me, honestly. I have my own priorities. I want to help the Anglican Church, because they have always been such a staunch support, and I really like them.
As everyone else, I am motivated by things. I want to have a payday, I want the honor I have accrued to come back to me.
Yet I am also very altruistic, so material things are not so important.
Negative attention however, like shutting down my project is definitely a turn for the worse.
I must be honest, I also judge people on what they use my help to do. Will they make a better or worse world?
G-d bless the will to make a better world. May humanity be better.
Well, it is really positive, that the Middle East peace process is coming along. At the end of the day, I kind of was the initial spark to it all, by almost loosing to my enemies.
So, just from a purely personal perspective, this is a great thing.
Anyway. Now we have to think about rebuilding as well.
All the things that Israel is so good at, is a boon for the rest of the Middle East. Israel is the path for a strengthened Middle East. The start up inventing country can drive the development of all of the Middle East.
G-d bless the will to support and serve and may peace come.
