Change

December 7th, 2019 No comments

The workers have been abandoned by the socialists in many countries. That is what is really changing the political landscape in Western Europe and in the US.

This shift have come due to a change in politics by the socialists. Classical Marxism was all about workers and workers rights, but Frankfurtschool Marxism is all about minority rights and social justice.

This development has been seen without much reflection by the socialists, and has hence just left the classical workers standing without a political class to represent them.

To me this is not an either/or, but a two pronged strategy, that helps the workers back in the limelight, and at the same time does not leave the anti racist stance.

I am not in liking of racism, but I do believe, that you do not fight racism with racism. This is fault of mr. Corbyn I think. He fights racism by hiring people of color. To me, color is just a social construction. We fight racism much better by finding a way to unite people under one banner.

That is why I have talked so much about civil rights and Democracy. Because this banner will not care about color, only care about intention.

I know, that it is difficult to fight something with Hope and Change, but that has always been my idea about how things should go down. By Changing the world without all these negative ways. Finding a true and positive way.

It works, as the US is a testament to.

So either the conservatives or the socialdemocrats have joined this way of actually finding some beautiful and worthwhile as their ideas. And have then often succeeded.

I hope that the UK will also succeed after Brexit, and truly believe, that Democracy and shared human rights will unite the country.

There are many hoops and crevices we need to jump over and into. But we will get there eventually.

G-d bless the will to find new ways.

Speaches

Well, as there is only one week to the election. I believe, that we are in a good position. If we compare the other two elections before this, first that of Cameron, and then of May. This time around we are actually much better faring. Why?

I would point to two factors. The first is the obvious conservative agenda. Brexit falls naturally along Conservative ideaology of one nation Great Britain.

Secondly it is about the leader, and this is where there is still a potential to reap in the final week.

One of the ‘secret weapons’ Mr. Barack Obama wielded with such alacrity and success, was his eminent ability to speak to the heart of the Americans. He is such an eloquent speaker.

This is something that has not been much in focus this election, but it is a very potent arrow in a good politicians quiver.

What we did in the last election where mr. Obama was doing his eminent work, was that we went around in different areas and spoke.

Mass rallies in factories, stadiums and so on.

Thing is, it is not only the listeners in the venue of the speech that is the target of the speech, it is all those who listens to the soundbites afterwards.

I mean, just think about it. ‘Yes we can!’, or ‘I have a dream’, or ‘tear down this wall’. All the defining moments of great speeches.

It is the most effective tool in a politicians workbench, if he is a good speaker.

So, that could, potentially, lead us to the end without loosing anymore ground, and perhaps win us over those seats in northern England.

G-d bless the will to speak.

Change

December 4th, 2019 No comments

Well, there is a bit of a fight going on in the Democratic Party of the US. Somehow the legacy and ideas of the Obama presidency is discussed and the true heirs to the ideas that mr. Obama presented to the world is fought over.

As one of the contributors to the ideology of mr. Obama it made me think about Change.

How does Change actually happen.

One of the greatest example of Change to my mind, was the development in Athens 2500 years ago. Here the greatest minds of the classical world; Plato, Aristotle, Socrates, Isocrates, Xenophon and many, many others lived through a time of great intellectual development.

We still hold the classics and best books of this time to high regard, and still read them with great wonder and respect.

But, and this is important, to truly understand Change, they weren’t exactly good friends all these ideologist. They were, even master and pupil, very much in disagreement.

Take Plato and Aristotle. Aristotle was Platos best pupil. Aristotle defined his own ideology, that in many regards, were in complete opposition to that of Plato. Just take their ideals. Plato revered Sparta, whereas Aristotle revered Athens as examples of political system (that is why Aristotle is the main go to philosopher when it has something to do with Democracy, because Athens is the birth cradle of Democracy).

Anyway my main point in regards to some of the diversions we see in the Democratic Party, and actually in between many of the readers here on Rubicon, that is the way Change works.

If you have new ideas, they never stay rigid and fixed, they are like a fountain, projecting water of ideas high in the air, whereas the result is not a fixed picture, but a plethora of rivers running in many different directions.

That is the way Change works.

So I mean, don’t be angry each other for not having the same ideas about things, accept that you have the same outspring, but use the ideas in different ways.

So, perhaps, this will make you accept each other, and be a source of peace.

G-d bless the will to see the world for what it truly is.

Election

December 2nd, 2019 No comments

Well, things are truly heating up in the UK election. I think we have had a good run in focusing on Brexit again, and we have been pretty unlucky in focusing on security.

We should be honest about the winning ticket, it is Brexit. But we should also be honest about what is ALSO a problem, and that is the security of the country.

I have a feeling, that the voters do not trust the political class to truly deliver on this issue, that is why it is a problem. When we remind them, that we have actually not been good at doing anything, then they get depressed and demoralized.

It is actually a truly depressing and serious problem, that travels into a deeper and much more concerning set of problems.

I believe, that essentially it is a problem of a vicious debate climate. Just mentioning the problems, will get you crucified in the media, and thus, it is truly difficult to get public support behind the process. We are a bit more lucky here in Denmark, because I have been able to push the sincerity and balanced view more agressively.

So, that is truly a deep and worrying problem. Hopefully, we can manage to turn the boat around after Brexit, when we can truly start to rev up the political engine on this issue.

Anyway, we are still leading with quite a margin, and we will win easily. Mr. Corbyn has been loosing ground in terms of ability to set the agenda, and he is rapidly loosing ground with the workers of northern England. That is a very obvious opening.

Mr. Corbyn har been married to identity politics, and has not, as the American Socialdemocrats, been able to find a link between the old and the new ideas.

Be as it may, as long as we keep the discussion on Brexit we will win, it is what this election is about.

It is about the liberty of Great Britain, and in this we have truly historic calling. We should heed that calling, with all of what we are, and what we can manage of power, to the people.

G-d bless the will of the people, and may they reign supreme.

Election

December 1st, 2019 No comments

Well, it is, as it always is, in the last 14 days of the election, that things really get hot.

Here are my two advices in regards of this election.

1. Be realistic about what gets the tories support. It is not the NHS, is is not the security issues (except from internatal security, battling islamists). It is the ability to deliver a Brexit that gets Britain COMPLETELY unshackled from the EU. This does not mean, that some of the worries of the remainers should not be addressed. They should be addressed, among these issues the scare among newly migrated EU citizens to Britain, how do we tackle that. Or the complaints about fisheries and so on. There are numerous issues that need tackling. But freedom as a principle is what the majority of the Brits want.

You can see it on the last bump we had after the peace we made with mr. Farage. Why did we get some extra support from that, because it gives people hope, that we will deliver at Brexit that is actually full of independence.

It is the prospect of freedom that inspires people. Beat that drum, be honest, and show people, that in the long run, Britain will be free. As you yourself admonished mr. Johnson, ending up with a Canada plus agreement would be all fine and beautiful.

2. There is a huge scare and rightful angst of all the violence done by extreme islamists in the UK. The terrorattack yesterday is just one incident in a string of many incidents. Giving a realistic answer to a way of tackling that issue, will be your final argument in the election, I think.

Just as there always is that defining moment for everybody else in an election, the INTERNAL security threat of Islamism, is a problem that needs to be tackled head on.

Repatriation, focus on extreme Islam and all these methods will get you comfortably into number 10.

Then don’t misunderstand mr. Corbyn. He is a good man, and people can tell that when they listen to him. He is actually not an apparatchik. He truly believes in what he preaches, and that will win a lot of hearts over to his cause.

As a Jew myself, off cause I am very critical towards all the criticism that has landed on his table. This is serious. But he believes in his own ideas, and people like that.

So if and when you criticize him. Don’t go after the man, go after the ball. Because the alliance with Hamas and other such abhorrent organizations may be done after a fashion of good faith, but these organizations are not good.

But don’t underestimate him, he is a good fighter, and he believes in his ideas. In fact, I like him much better than mr. Milliband, that seemed very much like an apparatchik.

What we need is faith and power, not just another talking head.

G-d bless the fair isles of Britain.

Peace

November 29th, 2019 No comments

I have been a long time silent on the Middle Eastern issue, that of Israel and the rest of the Middle East.

When I was commenting on the development under mr. Barack Obama, we saw an amazing development aimed at peace. We actually had a few years without so much bloodshed in Israel, and generally in the Middle East.

This seems to have been forgotten these days, rockets are flying over Israel, and in Iran cyber security is the new frontier.

I am truly sorry. I do not speak for all of Jews, only for myself essentially, but with some support from Jews around the world.

What do we do, to stop the fighting?

First of all, my claim is, that through an equal balance between Iran and Israel, there is a chance for peace.

As long as there is inequality in terms of power, there will be war.

But if we, through dialogue, actually seek to find some understanding of each other. There is a small chance of getting back unto the track of peace.

This is my opinion, and though I know that it may drown in the wailing of the sirens, it must be said.

G-d bless the peace we can find in the Middle East.

The election

November 28th, 2019 No comments

There is a reason why, I do not comment very much on the British election. The reason is not because I do not follow the battle, but simply because it seems to me, that there is not much to comment on.

The great problem was, initially, to make some kind of peace between the upstart mr. Farage, and the established, mr. Johnson.

That is actually working right now. I believe, that there is a beautiful balance between the two parties. Mr. Farage is still in the constest, and has the ability to protest, if the promises about post Brexit is not met by mr. Johnson, and mr. Johnson has a clean run on number 10.

How come, that we are in this situation, where there is so little to fight against and for?

I have been asking myself that question over and over again. There is no simple answer. But there is the complex answer, that the middle leaning compromises of the day is working. That is a mix of pro British business plan, heightened security, a focus on healthcare and a high profile in foreign politics.

Exactly the mix that mr. Obama won with in his election term number two. That is the second term of his presidency.

It is simply a winning mix.

Add to this a mild criticism of Islam, and there you have it, a good manifesto.

There will be more conflicts up and ahead. Among them; internal conflicts between the many ethnicities of the current UK, foreign conflicts as the one with China, potential rivalry with the EU. But all these conflicts, dangerous as they may be, are possible to handle, and there are many roads of action in front of us.

What is given, I would say, is the closer relationship with the US. Both UK and the US really need each other in an increasingly hostile world. Again the conflict in and around China is set to go off at any moment now, and the UK have their former crown colony Hong Kong to worry about. In this conflict the US and the UK share common interest.

So, welcome to a new world, where the “anglosphere” is once again trying to mend the fences, and getting “great again”, whatever that means.

There are many potential conflicts up and ahead, but at least now we have a good fighting change. We had not before.

G-d bless the United Kingdom.

Building bridges

November 27th, 2019 No comments

Well, there is a bit of a conflict within the Democratic Party, as the middleman (I have a good name in both camps), please let me give you a perspective that might serve as a bridge between the new radical ideological perspective, and that of Obamanism.

First of all, in the original theoretical socialist perspective, there has never been simple answers. In the beginning, in France (that is at the time when the US was founded), it was mainly a platonic ideology, mixed up with a great deal of Aristotleanism.

Since neither Plato or Aristotle are simple, the ideas of that time was neither.

At the next phase of socialism, it was neither simple. Especially Karl Marx put his mark on socialism, and was thus a conduit of the mainly French ideology of that time.

Things Change, and the ideas of Marx are not necessarily viable for today, but rather the legacy of the man will carry through in some of his ideas, but not all.

If we confront ourselves with the legacy of Marx, there are some things that did work, but is forgotten today, and some things that did not work, but still seems to be a important thing to many socialists.

Let me explain. Marx was essentially a Neoplatonist like I am. He pointed to Sparta as the ideal society, and tried to build a societal structure that reflected that of Sparta. That is why it is called communism, because that was what Sparta was, a community of soldiers meeting in the mass everyday.

At the same time, he took another thing of Plato, that of dialectism. He essentially saw the world as a development between two points of extreme arguments.

Now, Marx was right in using dialectism, but wrong in copying Sparta in the way he copied Sparta. He went against Lycurgus (the founding philosopher of Sparta), and preached open borders. According to Lycurgus, that is the one thing you cannot do, if you want a well functioning community. Any community needs borders.

So to be honest and realistic about a state that has strong communal value, you need to close the borders.

Again, this is not to argue for a closed world, it is simply to point out the inherent theoretical flaw in the ideology.

Anyway, I get lost in the theoretical discussion.

My basic point is; what we have missed lately in the socialist thinking, and what really work, is dialectism.

The view of the world, that takes into account, that we need more political perspectives in one political perspective, to make the ideas to work.

My economic philosophy is one example. That there are two factions within the business community, those who are loyal to the country, and those who are not loyal to the country. What we do to make an economy work is to support the businessmen who are loyal to the country, and criticize those who are not loyal.

See the dialectics in that?

Or my take on Islam. Here I tried to use the dialectic approach on Islam in the sense, that I deemed Muslims who are into political Islam as islamists, and Muslims who accepts and support democracy and democratic law as Muslims to be supported.

I mean, we have to fight terror, but definitely not all Muslims.

Again a dialectical approach.

Marx was, as the inherent Neoplatonist, right in this view.

I believe, that in practical political implementation, this works. The US is having an economic boom, the workers are back in jobs, and we have reached some kind of tentative peace with most of the Muslim world.

That is a prove of concept.

So for now, in the internal discussion within the Democratic Party, use that knowledge to breach the gaps, and build bridges. Try to find the extremes of your arguments, and then see the syntheses.

That will carry you all through, without that dangerous fractioning of the party.

We are not all right, but we all have a bit of the right view each of us. Through dialectism, we can find that common ground.

G-d bless the common ground we may find.

The humbleness of Democracy

November 25th, 2019 No comments

There is a challenge in the Democratic Party in these days. We try to find a way to move forward in a political climate that is, honestly, poisonous.

Can we, is there any way, that we can be inspired by the ancients in this regard.

Well, there are one or two wise men, that could teach us something if we try to understand what they are saying.

Democracy is founded, many say, by a little obnoxious character in the classical citystate of Athens.

In the classical time, this questionable character wandered around in the streets of Athens, and did some wonderous things. He was the soul of Athens, that city of an amazing cultural beauty.

This guy had a name, he had the name of Socrates.

Now, we say, that Democracy has the quality of freedom, and is the enemy of the tyrant. How is this exactly?

Well, what is a tyranny? A tyranny is a system, where the rulers do not listen to the people, but force their will onto the people.

But there is an interesting facet of tyrannies, that we often do not understand or think so much about. That is the fact, that tyrannies are never without ethics. Tyrannies are the opposite of freedom, it has all the rules of the world. Tyrannies are political systems where a bunch of rules regulate the people. Telling them what to do, sometimes down to the smallest detail.

The tyrants never see themselves as bad people, on the contrary, they see themselves as very good people. They have values and virtues, that they seek to impose on the people, for their own good, off cause.

This is where Socrates comes in, because he has this solution onto the problem of rulers, who see themselves as knowing better than everybody else.

He himself, who was, no doubt, one of the wisest men of Athens, went around in Athens and asked the people there about things. He asked the poets, the politicians and the soldiers. And they all “had the answer”.

Then Socrates thought about it, and he knew, that he DID NOT have the answer.

So he thought. I must be the wisest of all, because I know, that I do not know everything.

In other words, the wisdom and quality of Democracy is the knowledge, that you may have some answers, but you know that you don’t know everything. So you are open for a debate.

That is the core of Democracy, that you are open to what other people have of ideas and questions. This makes the Democratic republic move forward in true wisdom and with respect for those who are citizens of said republic.

Maybe we don’t know everything. Maybe we are not those who are the best in defining ethics and what is right and wrong. Just maybe Socrates was on to something.

So, this is the message of today, be open minded, don’t bury yourselves in “I know it all attitudes”. But listen to what other people have to say. I mean, perhaps even at the other side of the aisles there are actually principles and ideas that we can adopt and work on.

In that way, we try to avoid the fractioning of the great nation of the US in secluded and closed groups.

By that, we try to make unity again. Because, that is the core of the United States of America.

G-d bless that revolutionary idea, that we all love. G-d bless that beautiful nation. G-d bless that home of the brave and the land of the free.

Made in America

November 21st, 2019 No comments

A lot of the ideas, that Barack and I had, have now become a integral part of the Democratic Party. Let me explain.

First of all, economics.

Barack and I criticized the movement of jobs from America to overseas, especially to China. This took jobs from a lot of hard working Americans, and left them in poverty. Whole cities that used to be dynamic working class cities have ended up in ruin, as Detroit among others.

So we set out to get the jobs back, and we suceeded actually. This is the reason why the US is in good repair these days, and the jobs are there. Especially working class jobs. That is also jobs for people of a Latin American, African and Middle East background. Not only classical workers.

How did we do that?

Well, by understanding the mindset of businesspeople, and understanding the theory behind free markets.

First the business people. There are, roughly, two kinds of business people. The good guys, and the bad guys. The good guys are hard working industrialists, who are very patriotic. They build things, and support the local community with money for education health care and so on. They care. Like Bill Gates and Steve Jobs.

What they are really into, is making wonderful products, not just making money.

At the other hand, there are the consultants and private equity. They have no responsibility towards anything, country, faith or anything. It is all just a matter of making money. So they have been behind most of the outsourcing of jobs. As we called Mitt Romney “chief of outsourcing”. That is not good for the American worker, that is not good for the American economy, and it is extremely bad for the military, because the military is dependent on a strong industry.

So what we did was to support the good guys like Apple and Microsoft, and punished the bad guys like the outsourcers.

This is a TWO WAY method. Only punishing will not work, only supporting will not work either. It is about supporting the good guys and punishing the bad guys.

The beauty of the method is, that the business people are often in agreement. They are also Americans, and most of them are loyal towards the country, they just need a little prodding.

So, instead of seeing the business people as inherently bad, we need to see them for what they are. Some bad, some good.

A positive take on the issue is off cause, to focus also on some of the good guys. Put up Apple as a good example. They moved a lot of their production back to the US. I mean, they are a leading company, we should promote their loyalty towards the working class. They are themselves liberal.

Also Facebook are liberal, and they keep a lot of the production in the US. Another good example.

My point is, the strategy was taking in a method that used both stick and carrot. Only using stick is seen as bad manners, and honestly it alienates a lot of American business.

Capitalism is at the heart of the US, but sometimes is looses its loyalty towards the country, and then it is ok to step in. But if it keeps its loyalty, it should have all the praise, tax reduction and general approval we can give it. Because industry contributes a lot to solve all kinds of problems, and pushes the country forward in a positive manner.

Making ALL business villains is not a good thing, we need to be sharp on the nuances of these issues.

Do that, and the country as such will prosper, not to mention that it makes a lot of jobs to working class people.

G-d bless the will to see things as they are in a complex world, and use a bit of wisdom.

We are ok

November 20th, 2019 No comments

Mr. Obama has delivered quite a blistering criticism of the current development of the Democratic Party. It is going away in a very left wing conspiracy or direction.

It is as though that mr. Trump forces us to be desperate.

We do things in terms of politics, that we would normally not do.

Well, perhaps we should just try and take a look at the reality. Most of what mr. Trump has had succes with, is actually Socialdemocratic policies, especially in terms of economics. But also foreign policy, here I think of the conflict with China.

So in fact, we do not have to look for a political system that will actually work. We can just look at what is actually working. Ok, then mr. Trump has installed some kind of borders and ICE. But that is something we would have done ourselves anyway. Maybe not in such a harsh manner, but some kind of control is necessary.

So, maybe we should take it a bit easy, and go on from when mr. Obama was president. Just continue.

What we need, is a good candidate. I truly hope we get one of those.

G-d bless United States of America.

Well done Boris

November 18th, 2019 No comments

I just want to deliver a rare praise of a politician. I have been the supporter of many, many politicians over the last 15 years, in Great Britain, it has been mr. Cameron, mrs. May and now mr. Johnson.

It is very rare with a politician of such a caliber as mr. Johnson. He is at the level of mr. Obama, but just in a bit different political perspective.

That is always a true joy to work with. As a result, the election is going quite well, and the possible results after the election are promising.

We should however be realistic about the challenges. We are looking at a rebirth of the British empire, but that is not going to be easy.

There are a lot of steps to take to reach that goal.

But mr. Johson is the right man for the job.

Well done Boris, I will look forward to hear an ode or two of Homer in the future. Such beauty and wisdom is well received in the halls of learning that is Great Britain.

G-d bless the fair isles of Great Britain.

The heroes of old

November 12th, 2019 No comments

Well done mr. Farage, the sacrifice that you did in relation to the election will go down into history, as one of the finest moments of UK democracy. Let me explain.

In the olden times, before the Roman Empire, when the Canutes were ruling in the UK, there was this saying. The saying went: In order for the tree to grow, it must be watered by the blood of the heroes.

In other words, the Ask Ygrassil, the world tree needs sacrifice in order to live. You have just brought one of those sacrifices to your country. Giving Boris a clean run on the path to number 10.

This will ensure, that England will yet live. Yes, there are innumerable hurdles and difficulties ahead, but now when the UK is free to plot its own course, we can work with these challenges.

So, you have just won yourself a place in the halls of famous Englishmen along such esteemed men as Marlborough and Nelson.

So, there will a huge work in front of us, that I will try to cover, not least the ailing NHS and the wealthfarestate as such. This part of the state is in dire needs of repair, and an intelligent as well as no nonsense approach to it, will rescue it. But it will be tough.

Anyway, now we can finally work on some of the issues, that have been dormant for quite a long time now. Saving Britain from the collapse it was approaching.

Please, let G-d save the United Kingdom.

United we stand, divided we fall

November 8th, 2019 No comments

Listen Boris, I have been a commentator on A LOT of elections. I only lost one over the years, and that was the election where mr. Trump got elected. Even that election was a half win, since mr. Trump still is a reader here at Rubicon.

The first mistake that is often done in elections, is unrealistic projections. To win, you need to be painfully honest to yourself. What are REALLY the ups and downs of a election.

The thing is, you CANNOT win on the deal you have made with the EU. This I do not say to say you have not done your best. But the fact of the matter is, that only through a friendship with mr. Farage are you going to have the support you need to win in the different boroughs of the UK. Why? Because if he decides to fight you in all of the UK, you will loose too many seats.

So you HAVE to come to some kind of agreement with mr. Farage.

He doesn’t support the EU agreement, so you need to find a way to make some kind of compromise.

The second problem with the deal, is, according to my friend Melanie Philips, the fact, that the agreement does not live up to the expectations of the electorate. To be honest, I do not really know the ins and outs of the agreement, but I know the voters. They want to be free. That is it, not more not less.

If the UK is still tied to the EU after the Brexit, they will be mad as, I don’t know, something not so good.

Thirdly, there is the Queen to consider. I know, that she does not have a political role to play directly. But she is the caretaker of the empire, and she wants to get out. Because the empire is suffering.

Getting on the wrong side of the Queen, is not a good place to be. She deserves our respect.

So, as I see it, you need to make some kind of deal with mr. Farage. I know, that it goes against the ingrained self respect that comes with being an Oxford alumni. But this is not about you, it is about the country, and there working with an upstart as Farage is needed to get the majority in house.

As we used to say, united we stand, divided we fall. It is the same in this situation.

You have to bite that apple, and after that, you will win as sure as the suns rises on Brasenose college.

G-d bless the will of the people.

No deal or deal?

November 7th, 2019 No comments

The election in the UK is really problematic. Specifically in the conservative camp, where mr. Farage and mr. Johnson are two combatants fighting over the issue of Brexit. They are both Brexiteers, but have two different takes on, what Brexit is.

To mr. Farage it is no deal, to mr. Johnson it is deal made with the EU.

Let me give you a bit of a taste of what we experience right now in Denmark, maybe this could shed some light on what will happen if we make a deal.

I have just been instrumental in devising a rejection of ISIS warriors return to Denmark. The political agreement went through the entire parliament, and gave the ruling Socialdemocrats a huge boost in terms of electional support.

That is all well, but then the EU went into the issue, and have done two things. Firstly they have decreed that Denmark should accept more migrants. Not directly targeted at the ISIS issue, but as a probable spin off of the discussion here in Denmark. It was decreed by the ECJ, that is the judges of the EU. We cannot but say that we do not like the verdict, we are powerless in face of the ECJ. Hence there is no freedom there.

Secondly, and that is even more worrisome. The EU has financed a report branding Denmark all kinds of evil things as Islamophobes and so on and so forth. We have been very careful to not target all Muslims in condemning ISIS, I mean few other Muslims like ISIS.

So condemning ISIS cannot be islamophobia.

But even worse, the EU has worked together with mr. Erdogan of Turkey on the report.

That is the virtue of the EU, and something the UK could be met with, if the UK does not tear itself free from all the strings attached.

Therefor, my idea of a Brexit is, as mr. Farage, no deal. That is the only way that the UK is absolutely sure, that it is not confronted with absurd demands by the bureaucracy.

I like some of the stances of the EU, but the way they have treated Denmark lately is not ethical in any way. We are very careful not to tread on anyone’s toes, specifically not all Muslims. We differ.

So such a blunt attempt at controlling the migration efforts and reflection of Denmark is abuse of the vested power into the EU.

You should see the EU for what it is, and act accordingly.

G-d bless the will of the people.

The empire

October 31st, 2019 No comments

How do we understand the current election in the UK?

Well, there is a classic parrallel, that might shed some light on the calamities and challenges of the UK.

In the ancient time, there was an empire. But it was a very speciel empire in the sense, that it never really fought any wars, and was essentially based on trade.

That was the empire of the Phoenicians.

In the beginning of the Phoenician empire, no one but the Phoenicians managed to roam the seas as them. They had amazing shipbuilding capabilites, and were to construct beautiful vessels of commerce.

Through commerce they became rich and thriving.

They kept very much to themselves, isolating themselves in citystates as Tyre.

As time went by, the neighbours of the Phoenicians, a small tribe of no significance, started abusing the Phoenicians, attacking their cities and burning them down.

Industrious as the Phoenicians were, they rebuilt their cities fast, hence creating a myth about a certain bird of Phoenix.

But the peaceful Phoenicians became tired of all the fighting and abuse, and created walled cities from where they could conduct their business. This stopped the eternal cycle of abuse done by the primitives in their vicinity.

Perhaps it is time for Great Britian to shed the shackles of the abuse? Perhaps it is time for England to turn its gaze away from the continent that has never given them anything really?

Perhaps it is time to accept that in order to be free, one needs to sever the attatchments.

There is an empire that needs tending, and as the Phoenicians, perhaps only through forging a new path without a stranglehold by Bruxelles, the empire will rise again, as the bird Phoenix.

G-d bless the United Kingdom.

The Brasidas principle

October 28th, 2019 No comments

I have been doing my own things here in Denmark for the last 1 1/2 year. Mainly trying to make a living that is not tied to work that will eventually slowly grind my body into a lot of malfunctioning parts. That is what happens when you have to work manually, and hard work at that.

But finally I am here, I have landed a job that will be both artistic, bleeding edge in terms of new tech and then, hopefully, not that hard to do. Art needs joy to work.

Again, that will, hopefully, make me able to continue blogging, and again, hopefully, the work I have could potentially merge with my blogging.

As a director of a small tv station focused on political debate, blogging and interviews could go hand in hand.

Anyway, that is still a few month ahead of us. Let us look at some of the theoretical ideas that Barack and I had in the Middle East that, arguably, made the US the sole leader of the world.

It has never happened before, but we had everybody behind us in the fight against the Islamic State.

Imagine that.

Anyway, to understand the doctrine, you need to have a look on where we came from, and the development of media.

Before the internet, you could hide all your machinations quite well. An example of this is the first true theoretician in terms of media, that of Goebbels. He kind of coined how we used media until the advent of the internet. He is still quite liked in and around a lot of the powerhouses in the world.

Essentially Goebbels used dark magic to control the populace. He used things as small words loaded with an evil meaning. You have those words still in use; racism, globalism, islamophobia and so on. What you do, is to load a word with an intent to control the populace. Goebbels used it to control the Germans and kill Jews.

It may sound a little scary, and it is. The Nazies used a lot of strange esoteric ideas and principles, that we do not even know about today. And they did it in a Faustian way. That is the Goethe way of giving the devil something in order to gain something. It works, but it is essentially evil.

In the Cold War, these principles were applied to the fight between Russia and the US. Through subterfuge and manipulation a lot of the actual fightings were conducted. It was only possible, if you controlled the media. Because as soon as media was given free, people actually realized what was going on, and started getting really mad.

As a result, manipulation is the worst thing you can do in a war. Because people tend to realize it, and be angry at you.

At the other hand, if you are very careful to do everything ethically, people will also realize this, and support you.

I called it the principle of Brasidas, named after a Spartan soldier who got a lot of support in the Pellepones war simply by being honourable.

In fact fighting needs to turn itself 180 degrees to meet the advent of the internet.

Now there has been a kind of purge of the internet, trying to put a kind of shroud around the truth again. But it never really works. A good example about this is the ever painful treatment of mr. Tommy Robinson. He never seems to be going away, why? Because of the internet. There are always someone who are willing to cover his tragic story. The internet allows for everybody to follow his story. The same goes for mr. Trump. He uses mostly new media, not old media.

We know what is going on.

In an open world, the most honourable will win.

That is the true background behind the crisis of the Kurds. Because it was obviously very unfair. A good, honourable people were sold to a tyrant.

That is very bad pr. for the US.

So, the way powerstruggling works these days, is by understanding the Brasidas principle. That is, honourable wars gain support.

I think that the current mood of the Middle East proves this. Nobody really liked the sellout of the Kurds, especially in the US, where the new mode of communication ties in with the spirit of the US.

The reason why the US is so well suited as a leader in these days, is because the starting point of the US. That of the American Revolution, is all about honesty.

So rekindling the ancient and good principles of the founding fathers is what is really the best way to work.

Do that, and you see that there is a chance of success in the great game of power.

See?

It is all about being a good man, and a good powerhouse.

G-d bless the will to do good.

What makes the US great to me

October 27th, 2019 No comments

This whole discussion about the Kurds really have made me think about what the US is.

To me, as a philosopher, the US is the realization of my own ideals. I am a Democratic\humanistic philosopher from a Protestant country. So what I am trying to realize in the world is the same as what the US truly is. For me, that is not a thing that is about trying to convince the US to go my way, we simply happen to be a match.

I try to further the Democratic/humanistic ideals, and the US does the same.

When I began, I tried to realize these ideals here in Denmark, and I believe that I have been successful in doing so. But in the world, Denmark is a small player. But our best friend, the Americans is not a small player, so we have kind of teamed up, and fought our wars together.

So seen from this perspective, the philosophical perspective, what truly makes you great, as the US, is your idealism.

You are truly believers in the values of Democracy and humanism. That is why we like you so much.

That is what makes you great. Your values.

I don’t know if it makes sense for you to see from outside, but sometimes it is good to have someone who are looking at you from a few meters away to give their positive opinion.

So what you really like about me, is truly yourself. I am just a reflection of your own positive sides.

The positive sides are what makes you the leader of the world.

So, you just have to realize your own American values, and just be yourselves, and you will be successful.

I hope, that the love of your friends will help, at least we are here to try and help the best we can.

G-d bless the United States of America.

To be great again

October 26th, 2019 No comments

You know, you say, that in order to know a man, look at his friends. Are his friends good or bad.

There is a truth to this. You hang out with the ones who looks most like yourself.

Like me, I am seriously proud of all the Jews I am able to call friends. Because often these are the good guys.

The same goes with the Kurds. Look at them, a good, strong vibrant people, trying to survive in difficult circumstances.

I am proud to be able to call the Kurds my friends. Because their character is something that I admire and hope that I can see myself in.

That is also what makes you great, the friends you have.

I think, that that is one of the reasons, that people in the US are so sorry about the Kurdish debacle. Because after the Cold War, where we had to fight in a way that was, honestly, unAmerican in the sense, that it was not honest and honourable. The fight that I and Barack did in the Middle East was that, honourable and honest.

Yes, we did mistakes, but it was truly an attempt at trying to find peace and fight the obviously evil Islamic State.

To be great or to be a leader, one needs to be a good man. But being good is not about SAYING that you are good. It is about DOING good things.

Greatness is the practical effect of your character.

I believe that essentially the US is finding itself these days, or trying to. Because the ideals and system of the US is the best. Therefor trying to realize those Democratic ideals is really where true greatness lie.

Living up to those ideals is what the treatment of the Kurds is about.

This is not to manipulate mr. Trump into supporting the Kurds, it is about UNDERSTANDING what is going right now.

I truly believe, that the US is finding itself again. Becoming great, not in a militaristic sense, but a moral sense. And that is the most important.

G-d bless the will to do good and act thereby.

Have faith

October 23rd, 2019 No comments

The American revolution is a revolution. But what is a revolution?

A revolution is an extremely idealistic fight for a better world. An energy so high powered, that it can truly Change the world.

That is a revolution.

The thing is, that to do a revolution, you need to have something better to strive for.

Often revolutions are centered around principles that are flawed, so all the sacrifice and energy are poured into a worldview that does not make a better society but a worse society.

Therefor good ideas are truly essential to revolutions.

This is one of the reasons why the US is such a tremendously important part of the world, and, honestly, the leading society of the world. Because the revolution you had, and still have is the best.

Hands down. Ok, off cause France was an important partner in this revolutionary lead. But today the US have been most successful.

And again this is not to put a negative light on France, but to make Americans appreciate what they have.

You have the most wonderful society in the world.

You need to appreciate that, and you need to support that. Keep the Revolution flowing.

Your ideas of Democracy and humanity are extremely beautiful. Not only that, they work. Look at how far you have come.

In this instance, loosing faith does not make any sense, have faith.

Believe in that beautiful, wonderful country, and you will prevail.

G-d bless the United States of America.

Democracy!

October 22nd, 2019 No comments

There is a deep solidarity with the Kurds, not only in Israel, but also generally in Congress and in the Liberal Party.

This is what it is all about. A solidarity with a people who are threatened by an evil empire.

This is an independent, democratically minded people, who are a stalwart defender of their own rights. That is human rights.

All the right boxes are ticking.

Not only this, they are fighting Erdogan, who is an Islamist and has taken Turkey from a vibrant Democracy and reduced it to a kleptocracy.

If there ever was a vision and cause to fight for, the Kurds are this.

I know, that in the real world, it does not make much sense seen from a American perspective. But it makes sense in an idealistic perspective.

That is the fight for Democracy, right there.

G-d bless the Kurds in their fight for freedom.

The US is a dream

October 21st, 2019 No comments

The US seems more fractured than ever. Right and left are fighting over meaningless issues just to harm each other. The Ukraine debacle being one of these issues.

Let me be clear about my stance. I stand with the US. Not with ideas that are not good for anyone, or persons who are just plain negative.

Why, because the US is a dream. A wonderful, beautiful dream. A dream about a place, where people can meet across all the boundaries that there are. A dream about a humanistic idea and understanding.

That shimmering light on the top of the hill.

To unify the country, one needs to talk about that dream. About how that dream is there to be understood. Not only be the politicians, but all.

Work with that dream, and the country will be united, not divided.

G-d bless the United States of America.

The shift of policy

October 17th, 2019 No comments

The world is shifting on its hinges, but is has been a long time coming.

Essentially there is a shift in power wrangling in the world. Where in the old times we had a fight between east and west, that is Russia and the US. Today the US has left its competition with Russia, and started a new one with China.

The ‘shift to East’.

This shift have been a long time coming, to be precise, it started with the second election fight for mr. Barack Obama. That was when we shifted focus.

Today the threat is more imminent that ever. China is threatening Hong Kong, and China is so powerful in terms of military equipment, that they are real threat to the countries around them.

The last decade or so, they have played a British empire game of harnessing ressources by using their banks to control the poor countries they get their ressources from.

It is a pretty efficient powerplay, and they are running into competition with the US.

At the same time, the technological development of the state is quite fast, and the production capabilities are vast.

This gives China a good position in the fight for supremacy.

At the same time, China has fought us, through cloak and dagger means for some time. There are some rumors, that they have manipulated our economic system, and they are abusing their spies to steal our tech.

It is a real war in the making.

At our side, we have, diligently, rebuilt our own production capabilities, and sought to make a more cohesive front against China.

The UK is almost at the point, where it can actually start supporting these endeavors, by uniting the commonwealth behind the fight.

This will, hopefully, shift the balance, and make us stronger.

However, this has massive implications for the Middle East.

The Middle East used to be the playground for the fight between Russia and the US. Now, it is not really interesting for the US anymore. So the troops are needed elsewhere.

That is really the true background behind the shift of policies that mr. Trumps is making right now. It is ugly, and it does not look good. But behind the chock lies the true reason for this shift in policy; China.

So this is a new situation in the Middle East. Old players are leaving the scene, and hopefully this is good. Why? Because all this proxy war only leads to more conflict not less.

Conflict is not a good thing.

However, we are still here. And most importantly, Israel is still in the Middle East, so the US will off cause always have a measure of attention to the Middle East.

But you cannot fight two wars at one time, and the China war is coming up.

Not to mention the fact, that that war is going hot in a decade, and that will be truly devastating for all involved.

We need to be prepared, and we are. But, we should also realize, that there is a new pacific war coming up, and that will be a tough one.

G-d bless the will to be truly prepared.

Good news for me

October 17th, 2019 No comments

I have some good news for the readers of this blog.

After a long hike jobwise, I have finallye managed to get a job that fits the blogging, more or less.

I have had a minor job on a college, that did not really work out. After that, I have worked extensively on a small tv station project here in Northern Jutland where I live.

After some armwringing and general reluctance from the cultural ministry, I have finally managed to get the license, and will be able to call myself tv producer in a couple of months.

It is truly small scale, but it is enough to keep the family afloat, and me busy with an interesting job.

It ties very well in with blogging, because it is political and cultural, so there will be a natural connection between blogging and working. It will be really good, I think.

Anyway, these are just good tiding, and hopefully this will ensure, that I will be able to produce more texts here on the blog, and generally serve the international community with light and wisdom.

G-d bless the will to do good, have good thoughts, and good actions.

Let us support the Kurds

October 13th, 2019 No comments

You know, Barack and I started the war against IS, and the best ally, apart from Israel in the fight against this terrible foe were the Kurds. An ancient people of the Middle East, who really helped us a lot.

Now they are in harms way.

To be fair, I know that not all that the Kurds did would live up to the human rights standard we usually set to ourselves in Europe and the West in general. But that is war, was is always the same, and to be nice in a war is impossible.

Anyway, it is a crying shame, that the Kurds now must suffer at the hand of Erdogan. And not only that, he threatens to send migrants into Europe if we do not accept this atrocity.

So he is trying to put a barrier between us and the Kurds.

Democracy is a difficult thing, but if you actually have a democratic ally, then we should help them in any way possible.

They are dying, and we are doing nothing. How can this ever be fair?

My view on this is clear, we need to stay sharp on both material as well and ideological prioriteries.

Material; we should try and keep our troops out of harms way. Ideological, we should support those who share our values.

Lend them support from the air, from drones, form bombers and so on.

In this way, we support them, as we did in Libya, without getting too much into the fray.

G-d bless the will to support an important ally.

The difficulty of balance

October 10th, 2019 No comments

Joe, listen. In order to win an election, you need to address the needs of your voter.

Roughly there are two main voter groups in your constituency. They are the workers, and they are the liberal.

The workers have currently abandoned the Socialdemocratic cause because the migrants in the different countries have put so much pressure on their jobs and so on, that it does not make any sense for them to vote Liberal.

In other words, the pro migration stance that is one part of the party pushes away another part of the party.

This does not mean, in anyway, that we should be unfair to minorities and so on. But it is an essential problem.

It is such a vast problem, that it has effectively stopped most progress in the Socialdemocratic camp world wide.

In other words, identity politics is in conflict with classical worker politics.

It is a dilemma.

Your task is to make a balance between those two perspectives. At one hand you need to make a political manifesto that is supportive to the minorities of the US, but at the other hand, you need to keep organising and protecting jobs.

See?

It is a difficult balance in all ways.

But if you manage to find that balance, then you support the needs of your voters.

At the same time, it is, as I see it, very important that you unify those fractured wings of warring politics. Again an attempt to find compromises between people.

Going off the rail with one set of political ideas is poison to your cause. Just look at the problems mr. Corbyn faces in the UK.

The focus on the fringes of his parties political ideas have torn the party asunder.

You need to listen to the needs of the voters you represent.

They need jobs, security, a future for their kids.

Give them that attempt at a dream, and you can lift their spirits.

G-d bless the will to see the good things in life and politics.

The unity

October 7th, 2019 No comments

Welcome Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

It is an honour to have you here in Denmark, and when you are here, although meeting you in real life would be nice, let me try to entertain you with some of the ideas that Barack and I fought vigoursly for, and still hold in high regard.

At the end of the day it is about trying to foster unity and not pitting people against each other.

We are idealistic, but it is not a divisive idealism, but an idealism that seek to unify all who are citizens of this great country that we truly love.

There are many differences, but at the end of the day, it is what we truly share, that is the true value of the country.

So do not let you be taken away by all these voices that seek to destroy what you have of unity.

Unity is not something that comes out of dreams only, it also comes of principles.

These principles being the rights that each individual hold as something sacred and virtuous.

These rights, that create a common platform, but also constitutes what it is to truly being an American, are results of the French and the American Revolution.

But they are also spiritual in the sense, that Luther was one of the guiding lights of the America.

Now being a catholic, Perhaps Luther is not a person you would know.

But, at the core of the ideas, it is not about G-d only, it is about your relation to G-d, that Luther thought about.

Luther was himself a revolutionary, he despised the corruption that was in the Catholic Church at that time, something that the Medicis stood for, and he wanted to create a more virtuous and clean church.

That motivation lies at the heart of the US today.

That of finding good in the world, trying not harm and be open to the grace of other people.

It is this quest for a good society that ultimately is the US.

That is something that should unify and not create all these battles of who are right.

I believe, that the next candidate to the presidency should be someone who seek to unify and not create distance between people.

That was the idea of Luther, and this idea can and should still be used in the child of his thoughts The United States of America.

G-d bless the will of the founding fathers.

Stay strong Joe

October 3rd, 2019 No comments

Dear Joe Biden, there are a lot of things going on the Democratic Party that seems pretty desperate to me.

Impeaching Trump for some call he did to Ukraine. Now don’t get me wrong, Trump obviously did something wrong, and should be made responsible for this.

But my point is, you don’t win elections by impeaching your opponent, you do it by coming up with good ideas how to move the country forward.

Now, there are mainly two places in the world, where Socialdemocratism has not fallen into absolute destruction, that is the US and Denmark. Why? Because we Change the outlook of Socialdemocratism. Try to find new ways, understand the pitfalls of the budged theory and so on.

That will give you success.

As Ms. Frederiksen is having right now.

Why is Denmark the only place apart from the US that has success? Becuause we understand the pitfalls of the socialist theory, and act accordingly.

Now, Ms. Frederiksen has accepted the immigrant principles that I have put forward, and mr. Trump has used, very much to his positive acceptance by the voters.

That is a multilayered theory of citizenship that DEMANDS new citizens to be loyal to Democracy.

It works, as it has in the US.

Now, this does not mean in any way, that we should not be critical, and off cause too harsh methods are wrong.

But a tough insistence on the principle of rightful citizenship makes sense.

You cannot be a part of the country if the first thing you do is to steal from an old lady. That is unacceptable.

The discussion derives from a discussion of Aristotle on these issues, so they are well based theoretically, and they are not racist at all.

This is a principle that Ms. Frederiksen has used, and has gained a massive victory in Denmark from.

Now, there are other ideas, as progressive tax, caring of the poor, civil rights, Obamacare, fighting to get jobs back to the American workers and so on.

All these positive ideas.

Point being, that to make Unity, you need to find ways for people to create a harmonious society.

The more we fight, the less harmonious everything gets. The less we fight, and actually share the same values and virtues, the more harmonious and unified do we get.

So, my point is; why not try to find something that you really think is important and spin a positive message from that?

You are such a positive person Joe, don’t forget that in the fight.

Use your good humor and nice personality to shine forth that good intentions.

Show us your nice side Joe, let us see you for what you are.

You have fought so much to get into this position, so now is the time for you to put forth your ideas and fight for them.

G-d bless the wisdom of the founders of United States of America, as they are the ones who truly put up good principles to rule from.

The weapon of openness

October 2nd, 2019 No comments

It seems to me, that the complete cover up of my person in public life seems to be at an end. Took them 15 years. 15 years of prison, not physical prison but prison where I could not get a job, I was censored by all off media and so and so forth. 

Seen from an Obama perspective, what is really at stake here. 

To me, there is a relationship between openness and Change. 

Change is the further development of the society based on democratic discussion. 

You cannot Change anything unless you know what is bothering people, right?

That was the problem of Eliphas Levi and the French aristocrats. They didn’t listen to the people. 

Levi tried to call them, and make them conscious of the problems of normal Frenchmen. As I have been trying to with normal Americans. 

They are afraid of loosing a job, they care about security, they are worried about the lack of faith in the American dream. 

That dream of making a little spot for yourself by hard work. 

Now, you can censure things, as I have been a witness too. Myself and some of my friends. Encountering endless lawsuits to shut us up, or putting us in prison. You can do that, but how can you then know what is bothering the people?

We are the messengers of the plight of the people, especially the philosophers who live out here amongst the people. 

Now, there are some strange and honestly very worrying things going on on the right wing. Nazism having a come back at the fringes of politics. That is worrying. Me myself I have been hit on Facebooks by some of these scumbags. 

But instead of just censuring their ideas and thoughts. Perhaps we should try to understand what is going on?

We cannot just break down the borders, see crime spike to unbearable limits and then not expect a response. 

I didnt come up with all these no border policies, and honestly it has reached a limit, where borders should be reinstated again. Not unfairly, and not in an inhuman way. But keeping criminals and gangbangers out of the country is not a bad thing. 

So my point is, what Democracy needs, is that the politicians and other big wigs LISTEN to the worries of the people, and find ways to solve those worries. 

I will give you an example of true democracy, that may illustrate the point. 

Some thousand years ago in Denmark, we had too many people up here in the cold north, that we simply did not have the food necessary for all the mouths that needed feeding. 

That time, in the ancient time of the Vikings, true Democracy was what we had. 

So people came together at Thinge, and discussed the matter. First people decided to kill all the old and weak. But due to worries of inhumanity it was decided, that a large portion of the people should leave Denmark and go somewhere else. 

Perhaps that was the people of Angles creating the Anglo Saxons. 

Point is, that if you all truly discuss matters, then you can actually convince people to commit suicide, or find some other solution. 

The will of the people, done by the people, for the people is a very powerful thing. 

We have forgotten that. 

Tough decisions should be taken by the people themselves. We need to remember, that we only serve. 

Sometimes, as with mr. Trump. We on the liberal side do not agree with their choice, but hey, it is not us to choose mr. Trump. 

The people did. 

What we should do, is to come up with some good solutions on some of the problems that is out there. So maybe next time around, we can win the election. 

That is role we should take, to listen, and be open. 

That is the weapon of openess. 

Those who truly understand what people need, they win the elections. 

G-d bless the United States of America.

The face of evil

October 1st, 2019 No comments

To be a good person, you need to know what evil is. 

I have a lot of experience with evil. Not just the base meaness of childish behavior, but evil on a societal scale. 

We don’t really know it, but as a part of the mechanisms of culture, evil is embedded in the very fabric of society, and law is the method we have to confront that evil and make a better society. 

Ultimately law is all about culling the natural tendencies of evil in man as opposed to good in a more abstract sense. Natural law it is called, due to the fact, that in nature we have tendencies of evil, and tendencies of good, and what it is all about is promoting the good behavior and culling evil behavior. 

Knowing the system of evil in nature or natural behavior is then most important. 

It comes with the story of the cave, or rather the cave allegory of Plato. 

Here in this story, the philosopher is supposed to bring light into the cave, but mankind is not happy with the light of philosophy. He wants to be manipulated with rather than see truth. 

This is how society work. We may call our newspapers Liberation og Pravda. That is truth. But more than often we fall prey to the control. 

Just take social media these days, that are all about controlling all of a sudden, what happened to the virtue of openness?

But then the truth in opposition to hiding truth is not just an academic discussion. It’s not just something we suffer from in an abstract sense. 

People, especially those who are the truth seekers be that journalists, academics or other truth seekers are actively culled by the state. 

We seek to silence them. 

The primitive society culls the critics actively putting them into workcamps. The more advances societies use other methods.

Me, I have been struck with the torture of my child, with control of my money flow, with berufsverbot. That is, I have effectively lived in an open prison for the last fifteen years. 

That is a prison with no physical bars, but a prison nontheless. 

Now a live prison has the positive thing, that you can actually see the bars, and people react to that. They see, that you are put behind bars, and find it wrong. 

The hidden prison will give people the ability to discard your claims. You can see for yourself, that the prison is there, but it is secret. 

Secret prisons are detrimental to your health. You sufffer mentally and you suffer physically. I can see my health deteriorate slowly through the years, my body breaking slowly. 

But the mental health is really the problem. When all of your friends are going in and out of the lawrooms for this and that political reason, and you are just hit through secret means. You know it is there, but you never know when it might hit you again the next time around. 

You become afraid. 

Afraid about the next hit. Will it be your kid in school?

Most people break under these conditions. That is the true aim of persecution. They want you to break down. 

I once had a friend who made small little posters that he put on the walls in Malmoe, the most haunted city of Sweden, now the rape capital of Sweden. 

These were provocative artwork. He used forbidden symbols. But after all, it was just artwork. You could look the other way if you wanted. 

The Swedish police put him into jail over and over again. 

He told me, that one day, when he was in jail he talked to one of the others in the jail. The other person told him that he had killed someone, and asked him why my friend was there, and he responded by telling him, that he had put up posters. 

That is the face of fascism and persecution to me. 

To be put in jail with murderers because you put up posters. 

For me, keeping a healthy mind is the most difficult. I truly try to look at the positive side, to help, to support, to be a friend. But sometimes the paranoia creeps in. 

The whys and the questions asked. 

Why me? What about my children? Will they also see me as a villain for trying to seek the truth?

But the wonderful thing about children is, that they will not. 

But then I remember a story about a dissident in the Soviet that was deemed evil by the state, and his child refusing to accept it. The child withering away. 

That is the true face of evil. There. 

The tacit acceptance of whole of society of one who are deemed outside. Who is untouchable. The one we do not like. 

True humanism, is recognizing this fault of human society and going against it. Trying to fight the base mechanisms of man to brand the Jew as someone to ridicule and debase. 

The hallmark of a good society is accepting the truth be it how it is, and allowing it to prosper. 

Light upon the Nations is supporting those few lightbringers around the world, and giving them hope. 

G-d bless the will of the fallen, may he arise by the grace of G-d.

Social justice

October 1st, 2019 No comments

Now one of the things that has been on the menu of socialism, is, and has always been the care of the weak. 

Unfortunately, this ideology has lacked serious depth since Marx took over.

Eliphas Levi was the original social justice ideologist, and Marx was much too squarish and without any life experience. Philosophy should not be a desk driven endeavour but a trial and error theoretical developent based on experience. 

Then if we really want to seek social justice, what might that then be.

There are two strains of thought with socialism, that we can hold on to, and that can perhaps develop the perspective further. 

One is social, the other is justice. 

Let us have a look at justice first. 

Justice is essentially law. Sparta, the ancient city of Hellas, that was the inspiration of many socialist was a law driven society. None was above the law. Equality was derived from a obedience to the law. 

So equality in the original sense is about believing in the power of justice. 

So as a socialist, giving adherence to law is a rock bottom foundation. 

So that mr. Biden is a friend of the fire department and perhaps of the police is very socialist. 

A good, uncorrupted policeforce that serves and protects is the very basis of a socialist country. At least according to the original sources. 

Then the other part of social justice, that of social. 

I have covered that a bit with the relation of Eliphas Levi. 

Social is about taking care of the weak and dispossessed. 

Lately it has been in the form of state intervention. 

To me this is a wrong Marxist turn. To me it is not about the system, it is about the individual. How each and every socialist think and believe. 

A system is not about the frame, it is about the belief of the individual. 

Levi was right in the sense, that he believed that social meant the adherence to spirituality. 

We have lost that faith, and finding that again might just give us the belief system we need. 

We should not sit in our offices and regulate, we should go out where people are and help. Be there ourselves, have faith in helping those in need. 

And we shouldn’t do it to brag about it. We should do it, to make heaven on earth. 

Thereby bringing a helping hand to those in need. 

G-d bless the wisdom of the ancients and France.

The will of the people

September 26th, 2019 No comments

You know, the US and France usually tend to try and export Freedom of conscience, freedom of speech, freedom of each and every citizen.

But how often do the leaders truly care about the people?

I will give you an example from my own life, that kind of hit the nail for me.

Some years ago. I worked as a teacher at a college. It was a junior appointment, but I loved it, and tried to, as any new teacher should do, to inspire the young in terms of ideas, and off cause democracy.

In my specific class, there was this wonderful young girl, who entered into the students organisation, and tried to fight for the rights of the student.

Something I was personally very proud of, seeing one of my students rise to leadership in the school democratic body of the students union, it made my very proud.

Then one day, when we had one of those endless discussions in the teachers college ABOUT the students, she enterede into the fray. Valiantly and courageously, she went into the teachers holy domain, where students are not allowed, and started to speak up for the students.

That moment it struck me, that all we teachers do, is talk ABOUT the students.

Now, mind me, it was a leading college in its own regard, so the discussions were loud and learned. We presented the teachings of Lacan and Derrida. I presented the ideas of Løgstrup and so on.

The problem was however, that we somehow got caught up in our own devises. In a sense in our own feeling of selfimportance.

WE were the leaders, so WE were supposed to discuss the wellbeing of the students.

We never asked the students what they wanted.

That is often a problem in modern politics as well. We get so caught up in the process of things, and forget about what it is really about. The will of the people.

That is something we should continuously remind ourselves about.

That there is a people out there. And our job is to listen to what they want.

I mean, why arent´we at the campaign train, out in the workspaces of normal hardworking American. Why are we so obsessed with all these battles in congress.

Why don’t we go out to where normal Americans live.

Listen to their needs, truly listen.

That is how you win elections, by listening to the needs of the people.

G-d bless the United States of America.

Hope for Change

September 24th, 2019 No comments

Democrats need to find themselves before the next election battle. This is a little core story, that might help you in this regard.

A few years back one of my friends dad passed away in a funeral pyre on the ocean. He was one of those old hippies that built the free cities of Christiania and Thy lejren, the first free hippie city of Denmark.

He was a wizard, literally. He had this old wizards hat, and when my friend had her first born child, he giftet her a magic crystal ball. He named her after a star, so he figured that such a little star could use a little magic, I guess.

Anyway, when he went away I had the supreme honour to pick a few books from his library. A library of a magician is vast, huge, filled with all kinds of books on politics, magical ideas and so on and so forth. Filled.

I picked through all the books, and found a little treasure, that I will share with you here.

You see, when socialism was young, in France. And when those iconic words of freedom, equality and brotherhood was coined, there was this old magician in France that was a kind of the “first socialist” priest.

He was originally a catholic priest, but as time went by, and the revolution unfolded, he was swept by the tide, and tried to help as best as he could.

He wrote a little book called “Famine”. He wanted to tell the aristocracy about the hunger of the people. They didn’t know.

He had his heart in the caring of those who had little, and in his eyes socialism was about that. Caring for those who have little.

The point is, there IS a spiritual outset of socialism, that socialism has forgotten.

Yes, there are good signs in US with mr. Barack Obama and his spiritual socialism. But that is all for now.

But that is the path, as Eliphas Levi saw it, that Socialism was supposed to journey down on, that of helping and caring for those with little.

AND mind you, it is a spiritual process.

Find faith in that, and there is hope for Change.

G-d bless the United States of America.

Be yourself!

September 22nd, 2019 No comments

Soon there will be another election in the US. Let me clear about this. This will not be an all loose, or all win.

We are actually faring quite well.

Most of the ideas that Barack and I installed are still there, and it works.

But, that does not mean, that we cannot be better or improve on the things that we have been doing.

We have been discussing the idea of unity on the US. But what are the main words or idea that will unite us?

Well, look at yourself.

What are you called?

Have you thought about that. Your name.

Democrats.

That is what unites you.

It is that simple.

What unites Democrats is the Democracy of the United States.

Within this civil rights.

But the US is more than just a place on the map.

It is an idea that came from somewhere and needs to go somewhere.

But again, it needs to be enwrapped in what it is, it is a Democracy. And that is the start and the end of it.

At the other hand, the wealth and plethora of ideas and principles of Democracy, is a wonderful treasure chest of political energy to draw from.

Look at it, look at yourself, find yourself in your own values.

They are there, all you need to do, is to be yourself.

G-d bless the United States of America.

Listen to each other!

September 6th, 2019 No comments

It has been a rough few weeks in British parliamentary discussion, it seems that compromise is very difficult to find.

You know, compromise is difficult in an environment as the one in Westminster. Politicians are fighting all the time.

But at the other hand, a compromise MUST be found. This is not a support to any of the two factions of Westminster, but a true support of the middle ground.

You are not putting public interest before yourself if you do not deliver on the 31 of October.

The PEOPLE chose to say no to the EU, so they decide, not the politicians. It may be, that you feel otherwise, but that is not for you to decide. You are supposed to be servants to the people, and fulfil their wishes.

Then please do it, support Boris if you can. Talk to the man, find a way out of this quagmire, please, listen to each other.

G-d bless the United Kingdom

Unity

September 3rd, 2019 No comments

Iamblichus should be a prime source regarding Platonic philosophy. He is a pupil of Plato, and should therefor be close to Plato in regards to his worldview.

I have tried to discuss the principle of unity in regards to platonic philosophy. Plato does not discuss it much to my knowledge. But in fact Iamblichus do.

So, what is the aim of a learned society?

It goes with the aim of UNIVERSITY, what does that actually mean?

Uni, means one. How come, that university is called a place where you teach about oneness?

What does it actually mean?

To understand this, you need to understand the soil Plato was planting his trees in.

Plato, the quintessential and first academic sought after things in a MATHEMATICAL worldview.

He was, essentially what you call a PYTHAGOREAN. That is, at descendant of the Egyptian lore that floated around in the meditarannean in his time.

According to pythagorean lore, you find G-d and good in the mathematical constructs of the world.

You can see it in the pyramids. How come they are perfectly triangular? Well because that is a mathematical riddle. The number three, ends up in one on each side.

Its an equation of spirit.

You also talk about the holy triangular; son, father and holy ghost. Another triangularity.

Or the balance between the rich and poor, that you try to equate with progressive tax.

Or the balance between the three functions of law.

See? All figures of number.

What is the most holy number, the number the ancients always strived for?

They called the nomad, the number one.

One is perfection, and therefor University is called university. To make a school where the science there strived for oneness, also called unity.

Unity is the function of a mathematical view on society.

So, the path is clear; we need to make a frame around society, where people feel alike and not different. Where we celebrate what we have in common, not what tears us apart.

A society, where we all work to make a oneness in terms of politics and spirit.

G-d bless the will to heal the rifts in society, and make peace amongst all those who are now in turmoil.

The soul of the Empire

August 27th, 2019 No comments

I read a lot of all kind of British litterature. Both the scientific books from Oxford and Cambridge, and a lot of the mystical tomes from the British underground.

So in all humility, I believe, that I have a feeling about Great Britain that is more than just superficial. That is why I like Great Britain so much, and off also because it reminds me of Denmark, just as a brother would do.

Where the brits have developed amazingly after we shared kings, we in Denmark may have remained small in comparison, but we have our qualities as well, among them Grundtvig, the founding father of Danish intellectualism.

It may be a peasant country, but even peasants have their illuminaries and wise men.

In Denmark we have this academic principle called the folk soul. The point being, that the people have a common soul, that somehow encompasses the people, the folk, and thereby makes a kind of spiritual and democratic unity.

After having read some of the more mystical books from England, I realised, that the same used to be said about the Empire. The Empire had a soul as well. I have tracked the ideas, and found that it comes from Iamblichus, the pupil of Plato. So it is a platonic idea.

Now the Empire is in dire straits, but have a chance to be rebuilt again. That is essentially the task of mr. Johnson. If he manages to rebuild the empire, he will perhaps get close to his great ideal Winston Churchill.

The two look very much alike, and there is just that chance.

At a deeper level though. I believe, that if we do not speak about the spiritual matters, then how can the empire be rebuilt?

Getting a comeback in the Anglican Church is more than just a spiritual rebirth, it is actually the rebirth of the British empire we are talking about.

Here the Iamblicusian idea of the soul of the people or empire is very important.

It is not just a matter of making trade deals. But a matter of truly connecting on a more important level. The level of soul. That is friendship, good ideas, community, doing something worthwhile together. Supporting each other in the needs of each part of the empire and so on.

In other words, the CULTURAL part of the rebirth of the empire is in many ways truly important.

It is about that feeling between the different countries of the empire, how they work together and so on.

That is the endgame; to strengthen that.

That soul of the empire.

G-d bless the wisdom of the ancients.

The spirit of the empire

August 25th, 2019 No comments

Concerning the current EU negotiations, one could, in terms of looking af the needs of the involved parties, discuss how one would plan a strategy. 

First what are the needs of the Brits, especially the voters. They are many actually. But at the core of the vote a great support for the empire, the Queens attitude towards Great Britain, that is that Great Britain is a hub of knowledge, power and international movement, is shared among the constituents. 

They are not a part of the continent, they are proud, independent Englishmen, Walisians, Scots and Irishmen. 

They therefor want to realize that spirit of the empire. Someone might even call it the soul of the empire. 

At the other hand, EU wants the same essentially. EU ALSO wants to be an empire, but the difference is, that where UK is a power player in the British Empire, UK is a vassalstate in EU.

So both parties wants the same, but they have different ideas about where the power should reside. Either in Bruxelles or in London. 

So to satisfy the voters, which is what this all about, especially if you want to win a second term. You need to deliver on their expectations. 

Whether this independence is won by no deal or a deal, doesn’t matter. What matters is, that it is delivered. 

G-d bless the United Kingdom.

Denmark

August 23rd, 2019 No comments

Well, that was a bit of a drama mr. Trump. First inviting yourself, then making a big blunder, and then retreating without that much of a grace. 

What happened? Well, you just got acquainted with a bit of Danish culture. 

Let me try and explain. Denmark is the vile, tough, primitive little brother of England. 

Where England is illustrious and civilized, we are tough and no nonsense. Where England is advanced, we are plain. 

The Brits call us a peasant country, and to honest, we are. We are the hill Billy’s of Northern Europe. In some areas, to be honest most, this is a bit of a what you say, not so respectable. But when it comes to be tough, we are tough. 

Not only that, we are smart as well. 

If you challenge us, we will bite back. 

Now, our women are, more or less like us men. Tough, no nonsense and true fighters. 

That is both annoying and very cool. 

Mrs. Frederiksen comes from the same area as I am living in now, that is Northern Jutland. Our symbol is a great roaring bull. Tough, no nonsense, and a true menace to the enemies, an untamed force. 

So what you wanted to buy, was in a sense a mountain girl, with a great pitchfork in her right arm, ready to strike. 

You don’t try to bargain with a gal like that, you talk with her and make her your equal. If you do that, then you have a warriors wife at your side, a pretty good support in times of war. 

Now, we are like you, like you Americans in many ways. Unpolished, Protestants. 

That is why you like us, and that is why we essentially like you. 

We are simple folk, as most of you are. 

So, maybe after you know this, we can start the dialogue in earnest. 

Anyway, you are always welcome as a friend. 

G-d bless the mutual friendship between the US and Denmark.

Good

August 22nd, 2019 No comments

According to Iamblichus, the pupil of Plato, G-d is what is good. Then the next pertinent question is; what is good. 

This question is a question that we often fail to put to ourselves, and often when we do, we just imitate the ethics that is around us. Leaving us prone to manipulation. 

According to Plato, in his eminent allegory of the cave, we as people do not like to be presented with truth, and as a consequence, we persecute the truth seekers. 

Me as an example is a pretty good one, even though that I have made a tremendously positive impact on the world as such, still I am the last to stand in the line when it comes to praise and recognition. Be as it may, and it is also nice to an unsung hero, it shines truth to the old allegory of Plato. 

He is right, truth is not a ware we like to either peddle or hear. 

Then good is truly a scarce commodity, because the prerequisite for good is truth. 

Maybe we can actually make a Renaissance, and be more faithful to the virtues of the enlightment, a time where truth was a valued ingredient in our democracies. 

At least, that is what we CAN do, bring truth and honesty to our world, as is the path if we want to be good. 

G-d bless the will to be good.

Welcome presidents!

August 19th, 2019 No comments

Well, now we have two Presidents coming to Denmark. One of them even comes to my own home city Aalborg, to make a speech there. Really want to come, but due to severe budgetary restraints, unfortunately this is not possible. 

It is however possible to invite mr. Barack Obama in for a cup a coffee here in my home, the offer is standing Barack, anytime. 

Then we have another president MAYBE coming to Denmark, that is the current president mr. Donald Trump. He comes in normal Trump fashion, that is great uproar, a few scandals and then as a friend coming anyway, because at heart Trump is a friend. 

Anyway, it is a great honour having you here, you are more than welcome, and look forward to the trip. I will at least, and support you however I can when you are here. 

G-d bless the strong alliance between Denmark and the United States of America.

The freedom of the Christians

August 18th, 2019 No comments

There is a lot of discussion within the Christian community regarding the use of force. Can Christians use lethal force against an enemy?

There has been numerous occasion where this has been the case, not at least the crusades. But even today, the military is, in most respects a Christian military force, at least in Great Britain. 

Then a reflection on military force within Christianity would make sense. 

Me, I am a Jew, but as a part of the “light upon the nations” duty all Jews ideally serve. My attempt has been to try and help some of the suffering nations around the world. 

So back to Jesus Christ. 

According to some apochryphical sources, Jesus Christ was trained as an Essene. That is a Jewish religious order of the ancient Middle East. An order that calls for purity of soul, the obligation to help those in need, and a rejection of material needs. You could say, the Franscicans of the Jews. 

The Essenes is then interesting in the reflection of the spiritual weighing of war against peace. 

Now, in the great rebellion that Jesus was a part of. That of the uprising against Rome, there were other Essenes than just Jesus around, and they did participate in the rebellion against the Romans. 

There is a lot of evidence of this great rebellion in the dig site og Masada, the last great stand of the Jews against the Romans. Here the coins were emblazoned with the cry of Jewish freedom. 

Essenes, among them Jesus Christ was a part of that struggle for freedom for the Jews. 

There were other Essenes that were commanders in the armies of the Jews. 

This, I think, sets a precedent for Christian warfare. 

Jesus was, most probably, a part of a greater rebellion for freedom of the Jews. There were other Essenes that fought for freedom, so there is an Christian religious underpinning under the striving for freedom, for Christians. 

If Christianity is seen as a continuation of some of the ideas that Jesus Christ managed to spread to world, in a symbolic sense, Christianity is the continued fight for freedom of the Jews, and a furthered sense, a fight for freedom for all people around the world.

That is the core of the militaristic understanding of Christianity. 

G-d bless the freedom of the Christians, all around the world, seen from that original Jewish perspective. You are still fighting that freedom fight, please don’t stop, continue until you are truly free.

Utopia

August 13th, 2019 No comments

My point yesterday, about the utopian nature of political philosophy is simply, that what we strive for, ideally is something better. I believe that the Ancient Greek and Egyptian had a better society than what we have today, especially the last 40 years things have gone the wrong way. 

But they also had a lot of trouble. Constant warfare and threats from barbarian tribes (us).

But they always strived for a better society. Sometimes they made a huge step forward, as in the time of Plato and Aristotle, at other times things went awry as when the sea peoples destroyed the ancient Hellenic world, plunging it into a dark age. 

As Thomas More prescribes however, in his epitomal work Utopia, what we as cultures should do, is to strive for something better. 

Right now we are plugging holes in the ship. Trying to stop the massive flow of migration, stopping the bleeding of our economy and so on. 

But after that, and inbetween, we need to aim at something better. A better society, a more peaceful, happy and content society. 

Thereby bringing Hope. 

G-d bless the will to stem the flow of migrants to a bearable size, and get our economies up and running again.

The relation between harmony and order

August 12th, 2019 No comments

Politics has found its most illustrious academic definition in between two leading philosophers of the world. That of Plato and that of Aristotle. 

While Plato was the archidealist, the Pythagorean, Aristotle was the empirical taleteller of the current. 

Inbetween these two towering set of ideas true success in politics lie. 

I talked about needs as destiny in terms of political development. Point being, that you cannot fight the needs. If you do, you setup the frame for a revolution. 

Needs are destiny in terms of politics. 

This idea is Egyptian, or rather ancient Egyptian and understanding this in a Hellenistic perspective you need to know, that Plato was a great fan of Egypt. He studied there in his youth, and is what you term a Pythagorean, that is a Egyptian inspired academic. 

So there is a huge tapestry BEHIND Plato of Egypt that ties his ideas together. 

When Plato discusses harmony as a aim of politics, it is because this is what he learned from the Egyptians. 

Harmony or order was the aim of Egyptian political development, in order to serve the needs of the people. 

Now, when we today talk about harmony or order. We mix things up in a wrong way. Order is seen, basically, as a Roman virtue. Something strict and sometimes a little forbidding. 

That was not the way of the Egyptians, according to them, order was bliss. 

Order was not a sinister thing, but a state of happiness, care, and essentially humanism. 

Humanism is the EFFECT of order and harmony. 

We sometimes forget this in modern politics, that there is order behind humanism. 

We talk about the care for each individual, but in order to be able to care for each person, there has to be order in society. 

Open borders creates the opposite of harmony and order. As a consequence the equilibrium between order and humanism breaks down. 

We do not see the missing piece, that is order when we want peace and harmony. 

In that sense we are pretty primitive in our political ideology. We see only one side of the coin. 

We should therefor embrace the complexity of humanism, understand that it is truly wise. Break free from those hermetic texts that we see as the only source of humanism, and see it in a greater context. The context of ancient Egyptian worldview. 

G-d bless the will to see things in perspective. The true and ancient perspective of Egypt, the mother of spirituality and politics.

Welcome mr. President

August 12th, 2019 No comments

Welcome mr. President, it is a great honor to have you coming to Denmark next month. I would say, that there are a lot of people here in Denmark who sees it as both their obligation and self served interest to talk to you. 

Let me be clear about my stance. We in Denmark are not here to dictate anything to our friends. We are one of your most loyal friends and have been it in many years. We see you as a part of ourselves in the sense, that a lot of those cowboys they are named both Petersen and Larsen. 

People who came from Denmark a hundred or two hundred years ago. Each year we actually commemorate this with the Queen coming to be a part of the ceremony. 

We see you as a part of ourselves. 

Anyway, as I have served the US for many years, I will continue to do so. 

I truly hope, that this meeting will be a meeting between good friends, that serve each other in the interests of shared values and hopes for the future. 

We are warming up for the meeting, and just so you know, please give us your wishes for what you want to do when you come. Otherwise it will just be a lot of boring meetings. 

Take Jared as well, he is most welcome. We could set up a meeting between me and him. We have shared interest in the peaceprocess of the Middle East.

There are many things we can do, to further the dialogue between right and left in American politics. 

Anyway, we look forward to seeing you. 

You are most welcome. 

G-d bless the United States of America.

Security

August 10th, 2019 No comments

The European elite is creating the perfect breeding ground for radicalism and potential revolutions. 

Look at current mood around in many European countries. Greece, Italy, France. Great Britain just pulled itself out. 

Why?

Well, if you look at the French Revolution, there was a socialist priest at the time called Eliphas Levi. He wrote a pamphlet called Famine. Where he wanted to inform the elite of France about the famine in the country. The answer of Marie Antoinette was, why don’t they eat cakes?

In other words, she did not understand the need of the people to be able to eat. 

The same goes with the current elite. The need of the people to be secure in their countries is simply ignored by the elite, and as a consequence the system is breaking down. 

Needs are destiny. Politics is about serving the needs of the people. Not doing so will end up in a situation where the entire system will break down. That is called a revolution. 

What that revolution will be remains to be seen. I hope it will be a Democratic Revolution as in France. 

But there are signs of a National socialist revolution coming up. 

That will be truly devastating for Europe. 

So, perhaps being a bit more realistic about the ups and downs of politics would be a pretty smart idea.

G-d bless the will to be strong in faith of Democracy.

Law

August 7th, 2019 No comments

There is a lot of discussion in the US right now concerning guns and gun control. Let me clear about how law works. 

Law is something that you should feel in yourself. As Heraclitus mentions, it is the inner wall of the city. He claims that, you may breach the outer wall of a city, but if the the inner wall; law is a fortified and strong wall, the city will never be conquered. 

Take all these gunslinging morons who believe it to be their right to shoot people, often children. 

Do they have any respect for law? Do they have any respect for the fabric that strings us together? No, they have no respect for the great and justice seeking country they live in. 

There can be people who are just socially vulnerable and sick, so they go on a criminal rampage. But even though it is a socially made situation they are in. It still is not right. 

So to look at the root cause of all these killings. One should look to better education in law understanding. See how law is actually a good thing, something that binds people together. 

People break the law due to different motives, but they should not, and common ground politically is to try and enforce the acceptance of law as something good. A kind of rules that makes society run in a positive way. 

G-d bless the United States of America.

The needs of the people

August 7th, 2019 No comments

It seems to me, that the UK have acquired a philosopher Prime minister. The reflections of mr. Johnson are really of a high quality, and I will truly look very much forward to serve mr. Johnson with philosophical ideas and understanding of the world. 

Let us build on a thing that mr. Johnson mentioned in his inaguration speech. 

That of human sentiment. 

Human beings, and all in nature have needs. They have needs for security, food, procreation, having a future and so on. 

Politics is about serving those needs of the people, so they are content and happy. 

Needs are destiny, in the sense that you cannot fight a human need. The best example is the French Revolution where the people were starving. The elite didn’t know that, and all if a sudden they were overthrown. 

No amount of tyrannical state persecution could stop that. 

So, a wise politician looks at the needs of a people, and seeks to serve them. 

What are the tools that a politician has to serve these needs. According to Iamblichus they are two. 1. Wisdom. 2. G-d. 

Iamblichus have these ideas from the Egyptians, who at the time were leading in terms of culture in the classical Hellenistic world. So these are essentially classical Egyptian ideas. 

They believed, that wisdom would guide you to be able to serve those needs of the populace, understand the needs, put in place political systems to help the needs. A good example is a politics of grain storage. In Egypt there are strings of good years of harvest and strings of bad years of harvest, as it is described in the Bible. 

So the king made a system of grain storage so that in good years grain was storaged, and in bad years grain was eaten. 

This was wise, serving a need, and as a consequence the populace was very happy with the king. 

So what are the most pressing needs of the Europeans? It is security. 

We have just had some devastating occurrences of violence in Germany, Sweden is a living hell, and the UK has a bit of trouble in London among other places. 

The need for security is not met by the politicians. Consequently the populace gets restless and seek new politicians to meet their needs. 

The wise polician then meets the need of security in an intelligent manner. 

I have prescribed repatriation as a harsh consequence towards those migrants who make the streets of Europe unsafe. This has been accepted by most, but doing it craves a lot of courage, wisdom and luck. 

So, that is why we pray to G-d to incur that luck, wisdom and humanity to solve this devastating problem. 

G-d bless the United Kingdom.

Unity

August 2nd, 2019 No comments

When we talk about unity, there is a depth to that principle, that we should accept and discuss in order to really be able to make progress in this area.

The pupil of Plato Iamblichus, and thus a platonist of the first order has discussed this principle in relation to Egypt. When Plato and Iamblichus lived, Egypt was still an intellectual world power of the first order, and therefor being inspired by ancient Egypt is a quality sign. 

According to Iamblichus the world is organized in triangles. This may sound a little weird to the ears of the modern reader. But that is basically because we have lost some of the basic scientific methodology over the years, especially after the fall of Ancient Rome. 

Let me explain. In order to reach a harmonious society things have to find equilibrium. Equality, another Platonic virtue, is not because we want strife and problems within a society, but because we want harmony. See? The mathematical application of societal development is what truly sets the high bar of civilization. 

Take progressive tax. I know, that tax can be a burden, and I have recommended Smithsonian tax breaks that mr. Johson seems to be doing with wonderful speed and intelligence, wonderful that is really good, it spells good for the UK. 

But at the other hand, making too much inequality in a society where the rich are much richer than the poor leads to civil unrest, breakdown of social order and thus less harmony. The principle of Democritus, that Marx picked up is actually founded in mathematics. 

See how the ancients were wiser than us?

Now unity is another principle that one wants to achieve in a society. Here the mathematical principle is different from the principle of harmony. Harmony is the effect of equilibrium between two opposing factors or forces. Unity is the product of the triangle, that is a central principle to strive for as a society. A principle that gives us principles and so on. 

What is then the core principle to strive for according to Iamblichus? It is what is good. Goodness in a society is the aim and the motive of any political development according to Platonism. 

What is goodness in a society? According to Iamblichus, goodness is G-d. 

In other words, the interpretation of spirituality is what ultimately will bring an ethical perspective of society. 

In other words, making a united society is done by behaving in a good g-d inspired way. 

To see what is important to everybody, to watch out for those who have too little. To be humane in the treatment of those who are citizens in a country. But also to take a stand against abuse, theft and destructive behavior of those who seek to undermine and destroy society. 

All based on truth, rationality, humanity. 

In other words, it is something we should agree upon as a society and then do it in a good way. 

See how the ancients were bright in their ideas?

I think we are on the right track, but we need to find that middle path between peoples needs, and give everybody a chance to find a path in life. Give people a sound frame to live in, to make a good life. 

Make Change, to give Hope. 

G-d bless the will to do good.

Welcome mr. President

August 1st, 2019 No comments

Welcome mr. Trump to Denmark. As a part of a larger trip, the American president now comes to visit Denmark. This is good in many ways, not least because we share a common heritage and have fought besides each other many times. 

We share destiny and many other small and large things here in life. 

As a recommendation to the Danish public, I have recommended the good attention from all of Denmark, and it seems to me, that this is what is going to happen. 

To be honest, there has been a lot of negative press on mr. Trump in Denmark, but hopefully this will be a bit less when the visit comes. It is seen as a bad manners to treat a guest negatively, and consequently I hope, that the press will respect the visit as a positive thing. 

There are two leaders in the country. One is the queen, and the other is the newly elected PM of Denmark. Ms. Mette Frederiksen. Both really strong and honorable women. The queen was the first to reach out to the president. She is good friends with the English Queen, so perhaps the two have conferred together. Here the friendship of mr. Trump to the English queen is most helpful. 

At the other hand, I must say, that the newly elected PM of Denmark ms. Frederiksen has surprised me as more capable than I thought in the beginning. I support her as PM, and wish her all the best. She is in a difficult situation trying to balance some of the things that the old guard of the liberal are doing with some of the new things going on in the liberal camp. She is trying her best, but as the American liberals know, this is difficult. 

Anyway, be prepared for an interesting tour in our little fairytale kingdom. 

I hereby support the visit with all my heart. I truly hope that the two countries will be strengthened in terms of cooperation and shared interests.

G-d bless the relationship between Denmark and the United States of America.
