Ok, we need to get the show on the road in regards to the police reform we should do. If we can get it to be a reform that is made across the aisle, maybe it can actually support a more unified United States of America.

What can I contribute with? I can contribute with some knowledge.

First of all, justice that is the core virtue of the law, can be understood in many ways, but we need to get to the bottom of the ideas behind law, to really make a reform that is something that could be valued internationally.

What it law?

Well, to really understand that, one should go back to Ancient Egypt, where our lawsystem derives from, among other ancient sources or roots of understanding, Greece, Scandinavia and Mesopotamia to be precise.

Anyway, to understand what law is in an Egyptian sense, you whould read about the peasant that was accused by a richer man, and defended himself in an ancient Egyptian courtroom.

What he said was, that TRUTH was on his side, and as long as TRUTH was on his side, he could not loose. So he won.

This has developed into the g-dess with blindfolding, the point being, that the g-dess of law is dedicated with a ruthless dedication to transperency of law. There should be no lying in the courtroom, and if the prosecutors or, even worse, the judges are caught in a lie, the system is thereby corrupted.

As they said in ancient egypt, the light is the truth and that light is divine. In this way, divine justice is TRUTH in presence in the court.

If a reform focuses on this extemely important and basic virtue of the law, progress can be made.

G-d bless the will to make divine law.

Well, when you think about it, one of the good things about the current world, is the depth on which it is developed. I have the supreme honor to see the Beatles documentary, that Disney+ has produced these days, and be as it may, these guys really changed the world in their days.

But did they know anything about the true depth of the world?

Now don’t get me wrong, I am an amateur musician myself, and I really like music. The “Fab Four” were really amazing in their skill. But they did lack in the department of insight into the mechanics of our political system.

While as our generation, where the internet has changed all, and still is the wheel everything turned around, is actually deeply philosophical.

Again, it is not to diminish the Beatles, but to see the differences from the 68´ths and this generation.

We want to Change the world, both in the 68 and today, but the medium is different, so it gives the speaker to other types.

I may not be a skilled in music as the Beatles, but I am then skilled in writing and understanding of the quirks of our democratic system. So the development is different in a sense. Still the energy is the same though. John Lennon was a childish person in some ways, but he had star quality, there is no doubt about that.

The same with the other guys in the band, Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, George Harrison, they all had that star thing going on. Pretty cool guys, if you ask me.

Anyway, I was supposed to talk about the police reform, I have an idea for that, but that will be the next posting, sorry for the detour, but that Beatles documentary is really, really good.

G-d bless the will to be good at what you do.

You know, I know a lot about humility. Through my life, I have been a hotshot. First I was one of the greatest stars of Copenhagen in my dancing days.

Then I started in communication, and instantly became a hot shot in that. Over and over, until now, a hotshot in philosophy.

My experience is, essentially all the glamour is not what builds your character. What builds your character is adversity. Problems.

The last ten fifteen years, after I started in politics, I have had to fight my way through. With terrible opponents.

I believe, that this has built my character. I have become a wiser, deeper and less haughty person. I know my own limits, and I am much less prone to think of myself as a winner.

I know, that to get to that point, where I actually win in the greater games, I will have to make countless sacrifices. What I respect in a winner is not that they have won, but I know the countless sacrifices that was underway.

My point is, in regard to the current problems we have in the US. Humility is the first true thing we need to get to. Because winning will require us to have a sound look at ourselves, and see our strengths and weaknesses.

Humility is the basic strength, it will teach us a way out of the problems we are in.

Sometimes looking at our own shortcomings can be difficult, but to learn about a new path and new way to do things, we need to be able to look honestly on ourselves.

Maybe that is what the frontier ideology is about; the struggle to polish our character. That is why it is so important, we need to have the opportunity to really struggle.

Anyway, being a good and honest person, has never been a bad thing, it is what we need now. To climb down from the trees, and see the things we share and nurture that soul of the people.

G-d bless the folk of the United States of America.

Ok, well, things are shaping up. We are on a new course, that will, hopefully, make a better America.

First of all, leaving the idea of unity, will bring America down. The United States of America has always been that, and should continue to be that; United.

So, please, stop the violence, the vilification, the accusations, and accept each other. Root for the white if you are black, and vice versa.

I have done that, and it felt ok. You know, I have done a lot of television here in Northern Jutland, talking to old white guys about climate change, and they are not racist.

But, and this is a thing, that has been unearthed in the whole Black Lives Matter protest, divisive though it may have been; police brutality.

As I have written, I know how it is.

But, we should not abolish the police, we should make it just.

Here in Denmark, there is just no way back. I don’t think that the police is interested in change and reform. They just want to control, and use illegal methods. They steal and punish without a verdict.

But in the US, it is different. The police is still very much an idealistic institution, and it is through this idealism, that there is a hope for transformation.

What we need to do, is to make the police more just.

Nobody can, in their true and right minds, oppose a reform of the police to make it better.

How do we do that?

We do it by discussion the idea of justice. The police is supposed to bring justice to the community. Justice is colorblind, in fact it is supposed to be blind, that is the very symbol of justice. A g-dess blindfolded weighing the scales.

That ability to look at justice blindly, without any personal investment, is what needs to be upgraded.

Do a reform, where justice is STRENGTHENED. Make a better policeforce, that is more capable, less corrupted, if there is corruption, and serves the law. Enforcing the law, on a rational and colorblind way.

In this way, we can solve the riddle, and keep the U.S. united.

G-d bless the will to make peace and keep the U.S. united.

Listen Joe, don’t get me wrong. I have nothing against indigenous Americans. I have always had a good relationship with them. When I was sick, they did some kind of healing, and it helped me get well again. The same goes for gays. I used to be a dancer, and in that milieu I met a lot of gays. And yes, they can be too much, too much glitter, too much Eurovision, too much promiscuity. But at the heart of what gays are, they are just having a lot of difficulty with their sex orientation. They are often persecuted, people don’t like them and so on. The Jews the same, and often young women who are at the mercy of the dark webs of manly victimisation. That is the way of the world, it is difficult. The same goes with muslims, they are often vilified, but their response is violent, and so they dig their own grave. My father was a muslim, a wonderful, wonderful person. But the fact of the matter is, that a lot of muslims, seem to fly aeroplanes into buildings, so we have to do an adequate response to that. So we fight the Islamic state, because they are the ones flying aeroplanes into buildings.

My point is, even though we are seeing a lot of anger FROM the minorities, there is still a large unvoiced part of those minorities, that just want to go about their business, get to work, come home and cuddle their kids.

I these days with all the hullabaloo of Kyle Rittenhouse, it is the few who are yelling in the streets. We need to remember, that there are a lot more, who just want to have peace.

Root for them, those who just want peace. Not those who want to punish the white guy. Because honestly, they are the few. Most Americans, just want to go on with their lives, living it peacefully, and getting along.

The division between right and left is not good.

We need to bridge that gap, and create unity.

G-d bless the will to be a peacemaker in a difficult situation.

I know, that the US is all in the ropes about the Kyle Rittenhouse verdict. But, and listen, this is an area, where I personally have A LOT of experience. At least, experience with police brutality, that is unfounded in law. So my advice woul be; be realistic about the corruption of the police.

I will give you a story about my life. My ex-wife, she was, for many years, under the regime of the PET, the KGB of Denmark, because the PET wanted to shut me up. The PET infiltrated my family, my best friends, and they, most probably killed my mother.

Day out and day in, they tried to control me via the money I didn’t have. Once, I got a hundred bucks from my father I law in my birthday present, and immediately the PET came up with a fine to take the hundred bucks. I was not supposed to have any fun, I was supposed to be held out as an example of misery, for any who thought about talking about radical islam.

I was the jew in the gallow.

Once I just knew they would to kill my exwife, and I stopped it, narrowly. Over and over year after year. That the depth of police corruption in Denmark.

What did I do? I exercised my right to speak freely, as a philosopher. That was all I did. I did not do anything against the law. I LOVE the system of law. To me, the system of law is a true gem of civilisation.

And yet, even though I live to make the lawsystem just and fair, the system used all its corrupt powers to try and shut me up.

It was and is a disgrace.

So I know thing or two about the corruption of law enforcement.

Did I ever succumb to the violent act? No, I never did ANYTHING violent. Did to drive a car into a crowd? No, that would be a horrendous thought alone.

My point is, just because the police is corrupted, you cannot, and should not corrupt yourself.

When you start to take the law in your own hand, then the police win.

What you need to do, and this is what Mahatma Ghandhi did, over and over, is to show the world the corruption of the system. Do a march, with nonviolence. Let the police beat the crap out of you. They did it with me, and show the world, their disgusting level of lack of respect for the idea of law.

Law is there to protect the weak. That is the idea with law. As soon as it becomes a tool a tyranny, then the police or the persons of power are what we call tyrants.

Tyrants are the enemies of democracy.

That is what the founding fathers would have as an opinion.

It is time, that we think about that, and find our way back to a RESPECT for law, black and white, brown and yellow.

Law sees no color, only sees the weak, and tries to protect him or her.

The minute law becomes a tool of oppression, the founding fathers would have failed. Do we wish to be the generation that failed the very idea of this country, or do we want to be generation that polished the ideas, brought it into the light again, showed the world the validity of these ideas?

The choice is ours to do, we can do it.

G-d bless the United States of America.

In the light of the Rittenhouse verdict, I believe, that it is important, that we take a step back and look at it from outside. What was really the match that lit the fire, was it the police brutality, or was it the frustration of the Covid internment.

After mr. Trump was president, the frustration on both sides of the aisles have been moody and dark. Well, just because you feel angry, it does not mean that you are right, the reason why you feel angry needs to be analysed for the sentiment to be of any use.

The reason why people are angry is because they are in the know. They know what is going on in the dark halls of power. They are sceptical about Covid, they mistrust the government.

This is why the US is essentially the answer to the current crisis, together with France, because both countries were essentially built as a result of a crisis very much the same as what we have today.

The answers are off cause, transparency, honesty in government, power held accountable, integrity.

Right now we are kind of moving back and forth between control and transparency of government. To go through with Change, we need to step up, and be honest to give people hope again. There is no hope anymore, and we need to reinstate that hope.

G-d bless the will to be honest in the face of struggle and chaos.

Well, we are now living in the aftermath of the first COVID internment. These are my reflections on it, in the light of the Rittenhouse verdict.

Frustration is NOT an excuse for Revolution. As rev. Martin Luther King said and did. We as black or mixed people should not be judged on the color of our skin, but on the content of our character. Which implies, that we should not judge white people on their skin either.

One of the most amazing and admirable character traits of rev. King was his utmost commitment to a very American principle envisioned by the philosopher Henry David Thoreau. That is, that to change a society, non violence is the purest path.

Sometimes one cannot rely only on non violence, but if there is an opportunity to change the world based on non violence, this path is the one to take.

Did the revolutionary rebels of post COVID respect this tenant of rev. King’s legacy?

This is the reason Rittenhouse was set free, not because he did not do something wrong, but because WE did not exemplify the ideas of the book Walden.

Violence is not the way, it creates division and creates chasms of distance between black and white.

Protest in a peaceful way IS democracy. But violence is not the way of Democracy. We are called DEMOCRATS for a reason, and that is to change our behavior to respect democracy.

Only if we respect the IDEA of democracy can we call ourselves that SACRED name. We have a responsibility ourselves, to BE Democratic.

Follow the ideas of rev. King Mahatma Ghandi and Henry David Thoreau.

G-d bless the will to stay on the blessed path of non violence.

Well, we need to get back on the track, back to the sucess we had with Obama. We do not have his genius in oratory, but we still have his mission.

We need to get back to that mission to succeed. What was it? It was to create hope and change. How do we do that? We do it by putting forth an example of unassailable integrity. That is really where Obama has his strength, he is honest, a good and simple person and humble.

These traits were what I liked about him, and what the people of the US liked as well.

To be honest.

In a revolution that we are going through right now, the best course of action for the system is roll with it. If the system tries to fight it, the chances are, that we end up in the demise of the system. What will come instead, is a more sound and equal system. A system of democracy and humanism.

Obama however, he gave us that democratic system without the necessity to overthrow the system, but changing it from inside. Trump did the same essentially, he went for the bad guys, fighting the swamp and all that.

The system is able to turn around, especially the American system. A system that is based on a revolution to get rid of a corrupt system in first place. This is why the founding fathers are such good role models, because they went through a revolution to get rid of the corruption in system of their time.

So the system has, on a basic level, all the good traits needed to Change it.

What it takes is integrity, honesty, humanism. Being the good guy.

If the US follow that example, it will avoid some of the conflicts and mayhem that Europe and Australia is going through right now.

Treat the people with the utmost respect, change the system so that the needs of the American people is what is in focus, and people will stop the rebellion, do the opposite, and mayhem will ensure.

The thing is, it is a new normal, the honesty and integrity of the political class and system needs to be much more transparent and thus honest in the new internet world. It is essentially a new normal we should get used to.

Before the reformation, the bible was a secret document that the people did not understand. When they did understand the bible, they found out, that Jesus was a liberator and an honest, good person. The church could not keep on with the monopoly of power, but had to reform. Some did, some didn’t, and today we have Protestantism.

With this example in mind, then we should understand, that the demands on power have multiplied, true honesty is what people demand.

Why was Obama a success in the internet age? Because he was an honest person. He has integrity. Ok, he has his faults, we all have, but at the core of what my friend Obama is, his is an honest guy.

So, that is the way of modern politics. No more cheating.

It is difficult, and I know that I demand a lot, but it is essentially not me, it is the system of communication that has changed and we have to adapt to it.

We are in the middle of a renaissance, and we can either roll with it, or be eaten by the revolution. That is the bare naked truth.

G-d bless the will to be a good man in a very difficult situation.

Well, now seeing the current development in the view of the last two revolutions, that of the Flemish/anglo saxon revolution (Erasmus and Thomas More), and the french revolution, we can safely say, that the stakes are pretty high.

What happened at the last revolutions? Massive wars of independence and bloodshed without end.

When printed books saw the world first, it let to the hundred year wars, Protestantism and eventually to the french/american revolution.

That is really where we are now, at the initiation of such a new movement.

So, if we are not careful we will have another hundred year war, with the exception, that it will be worldwide.

Mankind will go from booming to being eradicated, and it will be the end of the dominance of the western world.

I mean, these are the stakes we are up against.

The genius of mr. Barack Obama was the fact, that he took in the rebel philosopher, and tried to implement his ideas.

Why is this genius? Because it gives mankind and especially the West a chance to avoid all the revolutionary movements.

This is the gift Obama gave us, so we need to be careful about the development we will go through.

Being the rebel philosopher, for me, it is not a matter if my ideas will eventually rule, they already rule great parts of the world, it is the method of the application.

Will it be implemented with or without a revolution.

War is the most terrible things of all. So that is why I have worked, with all I have of resources, and remember, maybe I am an international star of philosophy, but really I am just a seriously miserable person, trying to survive the persecution of the system, with a few good friends to help me here and there. That is the truth of it. Good friends, but still just friends, not the system as such.

How will it go? Will we avoid bloodshed? Will the system we are in right now be able to handle the pressure? That is up to the next in line, mr. Biden. Pretty awesome task.

I am sorry, for the implications of the task, but the monumental task at hand is absurd. Avoid a world revolution, where they will carry the emblem of the same philosopher that is helping me.

But that is the truth of it.

Hopefully we can avoid blood shedding. This is my greatest worry, but we will have to see.

G-d bless the will to avoid bloodshed coming to haunt me and those who are in power.

Well, one point that Aristotle makes, that I believe is really true, is the fact that Democracy has the most intelligence; the mass of the intelligence of the people beats the intelligence of the best thinkers.

He figures, that the ideas that the people have is filtered through so many people, that the conclusions are better than what people like me would come to. So, we should always try and interpret the will of the people. Try to understand what it is, what they want us to do.

Sometimes, we have our heads so far up our own…, sorry for the expression, but often we the elite are so certain that we are right and all that. But that is really just our own limitation, we do not have the capability to understand the supreme intelligence of the people.

A Democracy is difficult to make, but once it is made, it is very difficult to tear down again.

So, sometimes, we need to put ourselves down, shed our own arrogance, have the humility to put ourselves below the people, and try and understand what it is they are saying.

If they are displeased with us redrawing from Afghanistan, we need to try and understand what we have done wrong, and find a course, that is viable and reaches out for that will of the people. It will Change us, but if we understand it, filtered through wisdom, we can make something beautiful and lasting.

Democracy is one of those gems of our world, we should support it, and use it now in our crisis. Be absolutely loyal to the wisdom and ideas of the founding fathers.

They were a wise and sturdy bunch, those old geezers, they knew things, and we should try and follow their lead. They wanted us to LISTEN to the will of the people, so we should try our best at doing that. At least to the best of our ability, more we cant do.

But if we do that, we will win.

G-d bless the American Way.

Ok Joe, I have been reflecting a lot on the current situation. To be honest, we are loosing, why? Becuase we lost the war in Afghanistan.

I know it is a hard point, I know, it was all done in the best intentions, and it was good to get the soldiers back. But Americans hate one thing more than any, they hate to lose.

So, in the realization of this, hard though it may be, it also gives us a fighting chance to win back the loyalty and admiration of the American people. Because what we need to do, is to win.

But how do we do that?

At the core of what the United States of America is, it is the product of Anglo Saxon culture; universities, ruling system and so, and the French revolution.

So it is the tip of the spear of Western civilisation. The most idealistic, the most hardnosed, the most flamboyant.

This is not to say, that we cannot help minorities, we should, but to win the next election, we need to understand how Americans think, and what they want out of a president.

They want the president to win, and they want the American colors to shine.

In a world, where war is difficult, and often not the best option. Then how do we shine the colors of Democracy, rule of law, humanism?

Well, there is actually one project that is pretty easy to ramp up, the Mars mission. As long as it is a frontier project, it will provide a symbolic project to shine the colours of Western civilization.

And from there on, it is really easy to win. You and we just need to figure out a way to make the Democratic cause shine.

That is what the American people want, and that was why they elected Trump.

It is not a bad thing for Democracy to win, it is a good thing.

Taking up the depeche, the beacon, is what the American people want a president to do. The president that carries the eternal light, is the champion of the people.

It has always been like that, and it will always be like that. Because that is the American way.

The beauty of it all is, that everybody around the world agrees. The virtues and values of the American revolution are universal, so it will unite people around the world.

But be careful who you chose as advesaries, they have to be the opposite, as the islamic state was. They were the opposite.

G-d bless the will to follow the lights of the American Revolution.

Well, as Tolstoi the great Russian thinker said; all good families are alike, all bad families are different.

The point is, goodness is one, badness comes in all forms and shapes.

That is something to ponder there. Goodness makes for a very stable, similar and uniform world.

The lore of the ancients are pretty straight forward, if you follow the system of the republic combined with a sound religion, the chances are, you will find happiness.

If you do other things, like chaotic strains of thought that is in this world right now, chances are that you will find chaos and destruction.

This is not 100% true, there are off cause variations, different religions with different systems, but at the core good people are pretty much alike.

They are true, honest, compassionate, pure. Good family men, supporting the community.

In a way pretty boring, if you see it from outside. But from inside, it is happiness, thanksgiving, Hannukah, christmas, and a supportive bunch of old and young people around you.

Yes, it can be terribly constricting for some, and many people dislike the narrow path of truth and good, but that is the way good works.

So, my point is, unity as we have talked so much about is pretty simple, it is just going down that church or religious road, marry your highschool girlfriend, make a family, find a job and see the kids grow up. Eventually you become a grandparent and you will see your kids kids come to you, and you will care for them.

Seeing it from the perspective of the kids, what do the kids need? They need two self-sacrificing parents to nurture them and care for them. That is pretty boring and hard, but that is what it takes to be a good person. To shed your own needs in the face of little peoples needs.

Romance is self-sacrifice, it is not easy. But that is the way of the world.

Unity calls for good people to make good families, all alike yes, but a happy little community to raise your children in. This is the same, wherever you are, in all cultures, it is universal.

So, let us be a little boring, and simple for a change.

G-d bless the will to be good and simple in a world of chaos.

One of the things that I believe is lost in time is the humanist tradition of Europe.

I am a humanist, my family have been humanists for seven generations, and there are traces left here and there in Denmark of humanists.

But the environment or tradition is largely pushed away by neomarxistthinking, business ideas and so on.

In between all the other strains of thought, there is still remain a small percentage of intellectuals dedicated to humanism.

I see my ideas as reflected in the ideas of Erasmus; humanistic dialectics. To be true to find what it is to be human.

Why has it come to this? Now mainstream universities are filled with safe spaces, unfit for the garrulous truth seekers. Plato is but forgotten in most academia, and the search for light, that was the very idea at the garden dedicated to the greek hero Academus is nothing of importance today. The IDEALISM of academia has all but died.

Finding a way to be human, and dedicating ones life to that pursuit is almost unattainable these days.

Integrity and honesty is of little worth, while as academics strive for political aim instead of thinking about the betterment of man.

Humanism is all but forgotten. But yet, there is a few light here and there, pockets of integrity and honesty not yet fallen to the consummation of the superficial.

Maybe therein lie our salvation, in the renaissance of the antiques? In the dedication to the principles of Socrates. To put ourselves out in the light among philosophers and not stay in the cave with all the angry people of world.

People are so angry and mean these days, they seek to control and not set free.

Maybe it is about time we remember what humanism is, and seek to be honest with each other, and conquer our own fears and imperfections. Be just ourselves, simple yet spiritual.

These are the things I think about when I read about the flemish renaissance, where there were a system of philosophers and thinkers supporting each other.

Why is this world but forgotten?

We as human beings are wrought with imperfections, but we are yet human beings, and support of our fellow men are what defines us as human.

G-d bless the will to still each other as human beings.

Well, the climate change meeting is over, and I think we can already see the framework of something that might actually work.

First of all, the fossile free plan is pretty awesome. Can we make a world that is run on clean energy?

The question off cause still remain unanswered, but the path to such a world is paved with the intention, that it should be so.

But, and this where I believe, that there is a very important point. Reseach and development is an innovative force, you cannot control it directly. What you can do however, is to make a framework around the process that will spur the scientist in that direction. Make a public fund for innovation, pick the winners.

The next step however is very dependent on the governments. The implementation of the green energies needs investment in infrastructure. Take the Tesla, why is it such a sucess, because mr. Musk didnt really make a better car, than what had been made before. Ok the Tesla is an impressive piece of machinery, but the REAL innovation was the infrastructure he built around the car. You can always charge a Tesla whereever you are, quickly and efficiently.

The same goes for all the other inventions, it needs to meet the market, and it needs to get implemented.

What wins the race for a better and cleaner world, still remains to be seen. Power to x is a strong contender to electric cars. With power to x you can actually use the existing cars we already use.

So, that is a strong argument in that direction. Here in Denmark, we are leading in power to x, so we of cause put some of our chips in that hat.

Anyway, there is a phase now of innovation, and there will be a phase of implementation.

These two phases will intermingle, and some technologies will win. Think about the proliferation of the betamax video tapes up against VHS tapes. The betamax was a better technology, but the implementation of the VHS system was more efficient, so the VHS won.

These are some of the dynamics we need to be watching out for.

G-d bless the will to be open and supportive in the development of green tech.

When we talk identity politics and the ideas, that rule in many areas of academia, I belive we should discuss the alternative.

I mean, if identity politics does not work, as it does not, then what is the alternative.

These days I am reading the 16´th century academic; Erasmus. His work is REALLY interesting in the fact that he was the leading light in one of the former revolutions of communication.

He, more or less, presided over the proliferation of books.

In his life books went from being handwritten in monasteries to be printed in workshops with new amazing machinery.

It created a revolution in communication, just as we are witnessing today. Many of the ideas that Erasmus put forth are really inspiring, and his METHODS are awe-inspiring as well.

I mean, what happens if the society goes from almost complete illiteracy to a massive information wave created by cheap books?

What are the ideals that is perpetrated by this revolution, and how did it effect the societies we are living in.

One of the basic points of Erasmus was his INTEGRITY. He worked, selflessly, brilliantly for truth, ethics and good in this world.

He did not make a lot of money, but was a true illuminator.

In other words, as with the internet revolution, the beginning of book printing created a vibe of humanism and truth seeking of the finest kind.

This only lasted his generation, and after that we are still just living in his shadow.

The same is true about the advent of the internet, this gave the public a rare insight into true humanism, but the system became a threat to public discourse, and the power control is rapidly put at work.

This is what will happen in a situation, where media changes fundamentally.

What we can do however, learning from Erasmus, who has become the founding father of Europe, is to be a little more easy on the control.

Of cause we should not let things go crazy, but this is how things pan out in a situation where knowledge and wisdom becomes at the tip of everyone’s fingertip.

Maybe it is good to take a step back, and take a bit easy. We will get trough this, and my great ideal Erasmus made a better, less corrupt world where truth and integrity was at the heart of his project. The same is what we should do today, especially academically.

G-d bless the will to be true and honest in the flow of ideas.

Politics is a craft. You need to get people around the table, and create solutions, that all can see themselves in.

Doing that, is extremely difficult. When Barack, Joe and I developed a lot of the driving ideas of Baracks presidentship, we actually solved a lot of the problems we faced. Economically we made the Smithsonian idea of patriotic production, and in terms of war we made a grand alliance behind our war against Islamic State.

But what is it, that is the driving force behind true successes like that. It is depth of understanding, and then it is quality of practical implementation.

It works.

But to get to that point of quality, you need to understand the rights and wrongs of our world today and the theory behind the ideas we wrestle with.

So, as in all other things here in life, the car you drive in can be poor quality or good quality. If it is good quality, you can rely on it, and it will keep you safe in your travels.

If it is of a poor quality, it will break down, and stop in the middle of nowhere.

Right now people are disillusioned with identity politics and fringe left ideas. I think the notion is, that if we all just step into the middle of politics, then we are ok.

That is wrong, the reason why identity politics does not work, is not because it is fringe, it is because it is of a poor quality.

My ideas used to be fringe, now the rule most of the world, why? Because they will keep you driving, as a politician, the extra mile, keep you safe in the awfully destructive world of politics.

We shouldn’t just stabilize on the middle, no, we should keep driving, find new ways of the world. Think about the quality of the world we build.

We want to build good solid houses. Make a good foundation, that future generations can build upon. Make something, that we can be proud of.

Put those brilliant and emblazoned words upon the things we build, and make last, as it is MADE IN AMERICA.

G-d bless the will to find truth in what we do, and make it last.

It seems to me, that the world is centering around a climate change idea.

It is good in the sense, that it unites the world.

I know, that many people have doubts about the wisdom of climate change. But if we understand the agenda in a positive and constructive manner. We can actually do some good to the world.

And, honestly, in many places around the world, pollution and destruction of nature is a problem.

How and why is the issue. Here my advise would be, to focus on the best technologies and methods out there, and then really work on dialogue.

UNDERSTANDING each other be it left or right, is paramount in this development.

We can actually reach across the aisle, and be friends.

Making a greener more sustainable world.

G-d bless the will to make a greener world.

The climate change discussions are essentially a profound discussion on the wealthfare of the world.

How are we going to prioritize the development of the shared ressources.

To understand how this can be done, I truly believe, that we need to UNDERSTAND the ways of the world.

Essentially the world is bounced between order and chaos or, as other call it conservatism and freedom.

Understanding the right decisions in the situation, whether to be conservative or liberal is really the crux of the matter.

One of the major discussions we have had lately is the migration waves that are hitting the shores of Europe. To a staunch liberal perspective, the freedom of migration is paramount. To conservatives the order of the nations is paramount. Finding a balance between these two perspectives is important.

Why, otherwise the states become unhappy and often destabilized.

I know, then we liberals say, don´t build the wall and all that. But the conservatives do have a point in pointing to the fact, that the migration is destabilizing the countries they affect.

Instead of refusing to see this basic fact, we liberals should acknowledge, that there is a problem with migration.

This will hopefully defuse the political conflicts that are building in the major countries in Europe; France and the UK.

Let them have their walls, as long as the true aims of their endevours are positive and focuses on the integrity of the states, the law and the peace of the populace.

We need to understand and recognize, that maybe a little order is important also. The horrendous murders of artists and journalists is a problem. My good friend Lars Vilks has just been murdered, because he stood up for Democracy and free speech.

We need to protect the artists and journalists who defend humanism.

That freedom is more important than freedom of movement, that is the basic argument.

Anyway, let us try to understand each other, and create a better world, instead of just banging our own drum all the time.

Be open, and understanding of our opponents, work across the aisles and make peace.

G-d bless the will to listen to our fellow men. G-d bless the will to find peace.

Ok, so there is a major summit on climate change coming up, and these are the experiences that I have from Denmark, that the world can use.

First of all, there are essentially two categories to work on. The first is nature, and the second is renewable energy.

Often these two categories tend to get mixed, and you get a less than desireable result.

Take the discussion on the reduction of CO2 gasses. This is a problem due to excessive use of fossile fuel, and not really a problem due to food production, here other issues are important.

So we need to reduce the CO2 emission by reducing the consumption of fossile fuel, not by reducing food production.

FOOD PRODUCTION
My experience with this agenda is riddled with a lot af drama. First our current PM tried the hard way, resulting in mass demonstrations and awful, terrible destinies for the involved minkproducers.

This has almost toppled her government, and these days she is fighting for her life in politics.

So learning from this mistake, the next phase was much more positive. Here she really worked on dialogue, reaching out to the farmers, crafting a solution across the aisle. Perfectly executed, and really good work.

So, this is how it should be done, through dialogue and understanding. We need to talk about it, and find solutions across the aisle.

What has materialized out the long, long negotionations is a plan to DEVELOP the farming industri in a more green direction, using new technical systems and tools. There are many under development.

The same goes for the fishing industry, that is trying to find a constructice way out of the conundrum of climate change discussion.

We need to really respect the farmers and the fishermen, they are hardworking, industrious, nature loving people.

So by RESPECTING these people, we can get somewhere.

RENEWABLE ENERGY
So, the next issue that is really interesting is renewable energy. Here creativity and new ideas are really the way forward. We have so many good ideas in the industry, power to x, thorium energy, windmills, solar panels, energy produced out of farming waste and so on. We have hyperloop, electric cars and many other new tech.

As any other business field, because essentially it is just business, though ethical business, trial and error must rule, and the best ideas must win.

Make it a free thinking environment of technical developement, and we will have some interesting new ideas to rule the day.

But again RESPECT the new ideas, by giving them recognition. Make a Nobel price for the best green idea, cover the new items in the news and so on. Be respectful and positive, and then pick the winners.

G-d bless the will to find new ways for climate change.

So, one of the things, that I have wondered a bit about, is the fact that, I never get any enemies really. And the enemies, that I try to pick, get really sad about it, and try to get to be friends again. At least internationally, not really here in Denmark.

But, I have wondered quite a bit about it, and reading the book Sefer Yetzirah, a jewish book on ethics, it really comes into focus.

According to this book, wisdom and unity is linked.

That is why my ideas always seem to get people together, because in all humility, I am wise.

So, when we talk about unity, this is the tool that can bring unity in the world; wisdom. True wisdom.

That is the fate of Israel, to bring wisdom to the world, and thereby unite the world in peace.

G-d bless the will to find peace in this world.

I have been thinking a lot about the late interview with the Suidlanders. It is a REALLY difficult discussion.

On one side, I do not accept any kind of racism against blacks. I know how it is to be scorned and ridiculed. Right now in my town Aalborg, there is a lot of bad blood running in the gutters, and it is running in my direction.

At the other hand, white people, or just people from the north are also just people. So, we need to take this into consideration.

Things can go both ways, and it is when we end up in being inhumane, on both sides, that I really believe, that humanism is not allowed.

Being humane, is what it is about, in both directions. We need to be able to see our fellowmen as men and women, not just a skin.

I mean, how do you put ethics into skin?

Being true to unity as a vibe that goes beyond skin, is what is important. That black and white, yellow and brown are able to live side by side.

Being honest and humane to each other.

G-d bless the will to be a good man, in a situation, where the bad blood is running. Being honest, humble and humane to all. G-d bless the will to be serious and strong in the conviction that we are all made in the image of spirit.

The Suidlanders is a civil rights organisation of South Africa, demanding justice and rights to be reinstalled to white people of South Africa.

I have had a conversation with Mr. Roche who is a leading spokesperson for the organisation. To hear him speak is like a window into another reality, living in a system where the government is essentially breaking down.

I know, that this is difficult to talk about, but we need to talk about it, due to the severity of the situation in South Africa.

Please listen, and consider supporting Suidlanders.

G-d bless the will to be honest in a difficult situation.

These days South Africa is in turmoil, and the rainbow nation, that everybody hoped to make, is deteoriating.

For me, as a spiritual person, this makes me sad.

Now, dont get me wrong, sacrifice, injustice is what it is. It has no color.

I was a great fan of the whole process of antiapartheid, Desmond Tutu, Nelson Mandela. The forces they opposed were horrible. I can reflect my own fight in theirs. Civil rights, Democracy, humanism.

But these days the white people of South Africa are in danger, just as the blacks were under apartheid. I know that that is a controversial thing, and people dont like to talk too much about it. But suffering and hardship does not have a color.

One of the leaders of the South African white civil rights organizations have reached out to me, to relay their plight.

I will do that. As I have seen on the internet and through social media, the whites are the ones that suffers these days.

One wrong, does not make another wrong right.

So if white people are suffering, they should be protected, just as black people.

I am brown, so this has nothing to do with color, but with minority protection.

I know that this is controversial, but this is not about being popular, but about people suffering. If I can help these people, the Suidlanders, I will.

So, I have accepted the invitation to do an interview, and will make it tomorrow.

I hope you see my intentions as clean and honourable.

I do not accept Apartheid in any way, but minorities are minorities black or white. If it was the black under the thumb of the opressors, I would root for them.

G-d bless the wisdom and honesty of a cause. G-d bless the will to be humane in a hostile world.

When you loose some in your life, as I have just done due to a divorce, you need to be careful what you do. All of a sudden you have new responsibilities, but also new freedoms.

I am conservative, and I am a family loving type of person. I adore my kids, and would do anything for them.

I know, that sometimes this goes contrary to my international career. I would like to be an international star, travelling around in the world, being famous and all that.

But at the end of the day, leaving my kids because of my career, is not an option. When your exspouse wants to “break the glassloft” and have a career, then you have to ask yourself, if you want to go down that road, or stay with the kids.

To be absolutely honest, if a career means leaving my kids at the mercy of the ins and out of daycare, then the career is just not worth it.

This is my choice, I choose my kids over my career.

I know, that it hinders a lot of the work I am supposed to do, with international politics, and supporting the international community, and I will, to the best of my ability, free of charge.

So that is my choice, I will always pick my kids over my own ambition, because that is what a father is supposed to do.

See?

Choosing love in the near relationship over your own ambition is the right thing to do. I mean, how are those little creatures supposed to survive in a difficult world, if it was not for their fathers to sacrifice themselves for them?

That is love, sacrifice for those you carry in your hands.

G-d bless the will to shed your own ambition to help and serve.

Ok, we are in trouble. Radical islam is rising in the West. One of my very good friends mr. Lars Vilks was just assasinated, most probably, and the attacks are in legion these days.

Lately the attack on the British MP Sir David Amess, is another attack in a string of attacks.

The enemy is within the gates, and they are getting bold.

One of the main things that is pretty evident, is the fact, that the police is not up to the job. In Norway, where the killing spree was pretty fast and devasting, it was mainly because the police was not up to the job. Lars Vilks was killed sitting in a police car, and so on and so forth.

This points to the fact, that we need to do some refinement and upgrading of the police force.

I dont know about all of Europe, in fact in France they seem to be on the ball. They have installed the valiant republican troops to protect democracy.

This brings more security, and it kind of puts the conflict out in the open.

This is the next step, here France is leading the way.

We need to follow the example of France, and shift focus from a police lead security operation, to a military lead operation.

The military deals with war, fighting the Al-Qeada, the islamic state and so on, in war.

So we need to apply the adequate tools to solve the problem.

It could be implemented in all of Europe, and go hand in hand with the new ambitions of a shared fighting force, if that is a priority.

At the same time, we need to understand, that if we veer to much to the fringes of politics, as we have been doing lately, things start to unravel.

The fringes are idealistic and want to change things in a fast manner, the center listens to the fringes, but change things slowly and in a controlled manner.

This is how politics is supposed to be. Be careful not to go to fast.

The whole debacle with China is also warming up, so we are seeing a two front war these days, and that is difficult to fight.

But we are having new friends, India is really warming up to Denmark, and thank you for that, we will be friends.

Anyway, we need to shift security focus from police to military, and let the generals do what they do best; protect the nations of the West.

G-d bless the will to be protective of the citizens.

Understanding ethics, or moral virtue, you need to see your life in the glow of spirituality.

One of the most splendid or indeed wonderful roots of ethics is the root of Phoenicia.

Phoenicia being an ancient culture of commerce, learning and spirituality.

When we jews erected the first temple of Israel, we were helped doing so, by the Phoenicians.

My point is, perhaps not only did the Phoenicians help us in a physical way, building the temple, but also gave us some of their wisdom.

The tree of Kabbalah has a pretty obvious reflection in the first temple by the two columns at the front of the temple, reflecting the two columns of the tree of life, which is a core ethical system of judaism.

So in order to understand the depth of the cabbalistic tree, we need to see it reflected in the phoenician world. They invented the tree, probably, as they inveted the very system I write with, the alfabet, they invented and commerce.

How were the Phoenicians? They were so peaceful. Their world was a world without any fighters, just walls to keep out the invaders.

This peaceful way of life, is the aim of judaism, if the kabbalistic tree is the foundation on which we build.

Remember, peace. But not a naive or uneducated peace. A peace that actually do work, as it did for millenia for the Phoenicians. A beautiful, lasting and wonderful peace, with abundance and happiness.

G-d bless the will to understand a way to find peace in this world.

When we talk about light opposed to darkness, us being humanists, what is the “light” we talk about. “The shining light at the top of the hill”?.

To understand this, we need to go to the root of the understanding. The root of the understanding is the Egyptian lore of the ancients.

These illustrious people who lived thousands and thousands of years ago lived with a plethora of spirits, g-ds and creeds.

The main ideology of the classical Egyptian kingdom was the temple of Amun Ra, the g-d of light and the sun.

That islam, christianity and judaism is essentially a light religion is still recognized in the fact that we end all prayers with the calling of Ra, we just say Amen, that is Amun, originally. Remember Moses was an egyptian prince, and he installed the Egyptian sun worship in the jewish religion that then became christianity and islam as well.

So when we say “Amen” what we do essentially is to recognize Amun-Ra.

So what was he, this sun g-d? He was the fierce g-d og vitality, joy and life.

The sunlight brings life. The illustrious g-d was g-d for positive energy.

Opposed to him was the death of darkness. The lethargic life, no vibrancy, a static society of corruption.

That is what light is, it is life. Humanism is then a creed of life, something we can celebrate in climate initiatives, but we should also remember, that WE as people should be alive, well and happy. Because that is what the monotheistic religions are really about.

Being in that state is the RESULT of religous endavors. Happiness, respect, humility, sacrifise is there to make a world where we are shining, healthy and simply happy.

To get there, we need to dream and apply our fierce work to create a world that makes it possible to reach that state. That is the dream of America, essentially.

A paradise of happy people.

G-d bless the will the keep the American dream alive.

You know, to unite, you need a way to do it. You need a path, some waypoints, a little help from your friends.

But at the end of the day, you need goals and destiny.

The American dream has always been the deal of all Americans, but it is through lack of attention to that dream, that it seems to disappear.

I mean, are we really supposed to scold each other all the time? Call each other bad names and so on?

Or are we to find a middle path, a beautiful path of light, as my great grand uncle Andreas Engberg used to call it. He said, that he walked on the path of light to reach his folk.

Now embarking on that path, you need to understand, that the way and the voyage is difficult. You need to reach a new frontier.

But the path itself will, hopefully, be worth the struggle.

Now, what is it that we try reach? The mirage, the hallowed hall on the top of the hill?

In a sense it is Eden, the promised land.

But what is Eden? Eden is the very first city of the Middle East, called Eridu. It is where all the ideas of the world was essentially created; rule of law, religion and all these elements that make up what we call our civilization.

So reaching the goal, is to be very good at making law, doing Democracy, being a wise good man in a world filled with chaos. That is what it is about. The hard work, the beauty of your life with perhaps gal at your side.

That is the dream, to be a simple, humanistic yet wonderful person, living a family life.

But often the dreams we have are stripped away, we all know how this is. Yet the dream is still there, calling on us to live a normal life.

Tolstoi, the famous Russian writer started his Anna Karenina with the saying, that all good families look alike, and all bad families are different from each other. Why? Because reaching that dream finally, is a set goal. It is written in the Bible, and is a set of rules and good principles that will eventually give all that follow these ideas a good life.

So, maybe it is time to reach for that dream, and give people a chance at reaching their own little Eden; a set of naughty kids and beautiful wife, who knows, maybe even a house with your name on. You can get a dog as well.

These simple things are what heaven is made of; loving people around you, and good value to your name.

That is the American dream.

G-d blew the will to find bliss and harmony in this world.

Well, my life has been a bit of a rollercoaster. From the beginning with the Mohammad cartoon crisis, over the Obama administration and now to some kind of reconciliation.

I have given it a bit of thought, on how to keep the balance between the international work and the national work I do here in Denmark.

The problem is, that there is an imbalance.

Two years ago, I managed to initiate a small TV station, with the help of the government here in Denmark, thank you for that. At least now, I am not so hard pressed economically.

The problem is, that it chains my focus on Denmark quite a lot. I do a lot of interviews, and travel around in Northern Denmark.

It gives me a lot of insight, since, I get to talk to a lot of wise people, but it constrains my focus on international politics.

Ok, here is a way perhaps to do something about it. First of all, there was a job, that was in the plans. That job could be a way to support my international focus.

It would make a balance between making money here in Denmark, and making money in the US.

But, and this where my “demands” comes into play. I cannot move to the US.

I can do a lot of work from Denmark, and travel from time to time, but I will remain a citizen of Denmark.

But, if you want to make some kind of arrangement that would make that possible, it could work.

What I do is to construct societies. I am a political architect. This requires little research and testing in the sense, that I deduce my ideas. The ideas I work with are already tested by time, that is why they also work in the present.

Take my discussion on progressive tax. It comes from a discussion Democritus has on equality. It is not the idea of Karl Marx, he got it from Democritus.

So knowing, that this idea is ancient and has worked under certain circumstances, I know how to make it work today.

That is what I do, in all the areas that I work.

Off cause it should ideally, be tested before it is put into the society. Often when philosophers have new ideas, they are tested on countries and people, without their knowing, that is essentially using people as guineapigs.

The western society is a complex and intricate system, containing religion, political ideals, administration, military.

It is extremely complex, if you poke it here, you need to know what the effects are.

So, you have to be careful, that is why you like me, because you know, that, within, reason, what I recommend is not going to topple the boat.

Anyway, my point was, that what could be a kind of solution to my difficulty in reenergising the british/american discussion, would be to have two jobs, one in each country. That would make it possible for me, to discuss the issues of America, England and Denmark. Not a bad bunch of countries in my mind, we are very much the same, have the same systems and aspire to the same ideals.

Anyway, that was my reflection on getting myself to a place, where I can share my time and energy more equally between Denmark, England and the US.

G-d bless the will to do good in the world.

Dear Joe, well things are shaping up a bit.

Here are some further reflections to your current development of the political work.

First of all, you need to be realistic about the socialistic ideals. If you start taxing according to progressive tax, you need to watch the borders more.

The point is, as Lycurgus, the founder of Sparta argues, if you build a community where the rich pays to the poor, that is egality, you need to make sure, people have a personal relationsship to each other. Solidarity requires personal attachment.

This is the basic flaw of Marxist thinking.

Community requires a shared base of values.

Now, I get it, it sounds nice with a lot of care for the poor, payed by the rich. But we need to be realistic about the system. If we are not, the system breaks down. Lycurgus was quite adamant on this point, so we need to heed him, as I see it.

This brings the whole discussion border control and so on into perspective. Because, then what?

Point is, to be honest, we need to choose between open borders and a wealth faresystem.

That is the truth of it.

What you choose is off cause up to discussion, but Lycurgus is right, and Karl Marx was wrong in not hearing him.

That is the lay of the land, I am sorry, but that is the truth of it.

But then, when you realise this truth, what you can do, is to envision that society that you want. Create that utopia.

The soul of the people, needs to be nurtured and cared for, that is the aim of American politics as I see it.

G-d bless the will to be honest and keep America as a dream.

In the discussion of Social media, what seems to me to be lacking is not really discussion in social media as such, but more an attitude to discussion that is within a humanistic/democratic frame.

We have discussed democracy, where social media have failed miserably. To remedy the whole censuresystem is almost impossible, it is so far gone down the Stasi/KGB methods, that we need someone else to do censureship, than the socialmedia owners themselves. They have absolutely no inclination to be responsible for some of the most important pieces of infrastructure in the world. The idea with the internet was to create openess, and ever since Social media has arised, the opposite has happened.

Anway, back to the discussion on humaneness.

Remember the US is a humanistic/democratic state. It comes all the way from the first pilgrims, over the civilwar and to the civil diobedience strikes in the 60´ties.

Anyway, what is it to be humane?

It is, as we Jews call it, to be a Mensch. An exceptional human being. A human being, that is able to forgive, accept the wrongdoings of other people, that in the face of adversity keeps his faith in the positive, in giving, in being humane.

It is the very opposite of control and boxing in.

Social media is all about boxing people in, and hindering them of doing what they like the most.

Take me, I have worked on my little tv station TV Freedom.

I just love to work with that. I get to meet people, support the democratic process, give all people a voice.

So what do Facebook think about that, well, from the beginning, Facebook has put strict rules over my TV station, I cannot advertise for my tv station, whenever I get too popular, the shadow banning starts and so on.

The very opposite of being humane in understanding me.

So if Facebook handles a renaessance philosopher with disdain, lack of of humanity and attempts at controlling, how are other people handled?

The same way, but just worse.

Is that humane?

G-d bless the will to be human in a world, where control and systematic lack of humanity is the reality of most people.

Ok, it seems to me, that I have been involved in so many agendas, that it is a little hard for me to truly stay on top of them all. But I am doing my best.

Here is something about the US.

Equality

Equality is a liberal virtue. We have equality between people, different colors, classes and as a new virtue, the equality between nature, man and business in the climate Change department.

So, what is this virtue of the liberal, and how may we understand and apply it?

First of all, one needs to understand the basis of the idea. Equality is a way to reach a happy society. According to Plato, a situation where there is too far away from one end to the other, there is a lack of balance. Take classes, in countries where the rich are so rich, that they can have a lot of servants, and the poor are living in appaling poverty, the gap between the rich and the poor is too wide. So that is the reason why we have progressive taxes, to make a situation where the rich are not totally rich, and the poor not totally poor.

Off cause, this is not an idea that is without its problems, in a capitalist society, the values that the rich make, is distributed through jobs, so making a communist society, there is no wealth at all to distribute. So you need to find a balance between too much and too little, and you need a loyal as well as patriotic workforce as well as industrialist. That proud mark of Made in America, must be something that both worker as well as industrialist is common in understanding as something good.

As soon as that goes away, then the whole nation is not working anymore. This is a point where I have gone back to Hegel in my understanding of socialism.

We need a Hegelian understanding of the nation.

But with the right care, and understanding, we CAN make a more equal society by making progressive tax.

Climate

Anyway, it is the same idea that goes with Climate. Here again, we need a true balance between the needs of man and nature.

If we just make the whole globe into a manmade hell for all other species, we loose sight of something profound; the grace of spirits realization in nature. We loose our faith.

It is through understanding nature as a spritiual realization of G-d, that we may be able to preserve and understand both ourselves as well as nature as something divine.

But, and this is where the balance comes into play again, we also need to feed all the people that keeps coming into existence, and that requires areas to grow crops.

But, that is where the innovation of agriculture comes into play; making more food in less space and trying out new kind of smart crops.

It is about the equality between man and nature, and we still need to do all this on an international market, so we need to respect that making food is a business for a lot of people.

So innovation and picking the winners is a strategy here as well, and then trying to pressure some of the bad guys.

The mass slaughter of the forest of Borneo anyone? The plastic catastrophe of the oceans, a problem we need to fix and think about, and so on, there are a host of issues we need to adress.

Social media

And then there is Facebook and Google that seems to have forgotten that they are supposed to be Mensch, shame on them.

G-d bless the will to do good in a chaotic world.

Dear Joe, things are seeming to get into gear I think.

Here are my reflections on the current issues.

First the war against China. Trying to cut out China from the free markets, is a master stroke. It is much more effective than what Trump did, but it comes with its own set of caveeats and issues, that you have to think about.

What is it anyway with free markets, and what is it good for?

In essence it is an idea, that Adam Smith had, that caters to the fact, that if we make a market where all can take part in, it in effect lifts all nations up, IF the nations that contribute accept the rules of law, that is.

I mean, pirates are still pirates, and should be considered pirates. The piracy copying that the Chinese have built on, is basicially stealing knowledge, and it is therefor illegal.

90% of Chinese production is therefore based on stolen goods, and it creates a situation, where it gives the Chinese an advantage that is essentially not within the frame of free trade. Knowledge piracy is piracy.

So, what you need to do, is then cut them out of the free market, and make sure, that the nations that is within the free market accepts the rules of law, and does not steal from other companies.

But, here is the problem. It needs to be setup in a way, that the other nations feel sure, that they are a part of that new free market of lawabiding nations.

The rest of the world, more or less.

So isolate China in terms of acces to market, and you will deal an essential blow to the balance between the US and China.

But, and that is very important. You need to make sure, that American businesses accepts the fact, that they are supposed to make things in America.

Made in America.

How you do that, is also a pretty important part of the rebuilding of America.

Here in Denmark, we can, potentially, work together, union and producer.

Maybe that is a way of the US as well, seek cooperation between union and production.

Seek out solutions here on a political level, maybe in a cooperation with the Republicans. They are also interested in a strong and prosperous United States of America.

Climate Change

Then there is the Climate.

First of all, I have been doing a lot of research here in Denmark, and talked to both sides. It is really a diffcult area. But there are openings here and there.

Energy change being one of them. Going from fossile fuel production to renewable energy is possible, but needs a lot of development to really succeed.

There are many interesting project, and supporting the winners is a good idea.

I just had an interview with the second in command of Socialistisk Folkeparti Jacob Mark, and he worked that way. Picking the winners, and supporting them.

Hyperloop development is interesting, we have power to X in Denmark, Elon Musk knows a lot and is doing many interesting things.

So, maybe pick the winners?

G-d bless the United States of America.

Ok, having established the basic principles of sustainability, that of balance of things. Balance between man, nature and business, we can move on to the practical.

I will return to my trip to paradise island, but just to give you some inspiration to what we can do with climate change, here is an overview.

There are three possible areas of practical action.

1. Energy consumption
2. Agricultural development
3. Marine care

First energy consumption. This area is where we have the windmills, the electric cars, the hyperloop. That is figuring out new ways to use energy and create better modes of transportation.

Mr. Musk and mr. Branson have made some amazing developments in this area. So supporting these two fine gentlemen, is not a bad idea. Whatever they come up with, support it. They have the track record of blazing innovation, and we can safely put our trust in them.

There is another field, that I am working on in Denmark, that of green fuel. We are leading in this area, so hopefully, we can initiate the roll out of fuel made with renewable energy sources. That is going from wind to fuel in cars and ships.

Pretty cool innovation if you ask me.

Talking about agricultural development as well as marine care, these areas are very difficult to handle, so be careful. I have done a lot of research here in Denmark, and the problem is, that we are working with conservative farmers, who are not used to intervention, and they do not trust the left.

So, forcing the farmers is not a good idea. We had a huge rally of farmers after our current government started forcing them, it was not ok.

What you can do, is to focus on the innovative branch of agricultural production. There are all kinds of new ways to figure out ways to make food that is less punishing to nature. Fast crops, worms as protein and so on. Israel is leading here.

Add to this, animal care is important, but again, it is very difficult. Just enforcing new rules, will get the farmers riled. Work WITH the farmers, even though it is extremely difficult.

I am actually doing it in Denmark, and it can be done. But they are tough, and wise, so we should respect the farmers. They do also carry an ancient life form, that we stil remember as the “village”. Right? We carry this picture of the farm and the village with us. The ideal, healthy, little town, where they play the banjo, go to church and sing every morning. It is still there, here and there, and we should protect that mirage of happiness instead of not seeing it, very important.

Then there is aqua care. This again, is also a very difficult area. With the same reasons as agriculture, because of the fishermen.

I dont know how it is in the US. But here in Denmark, there is an extremely complex reality of agriculture using fertilizer that has a negative effect on the oceans. Fishermen having quotas as to how much they are allowed to fish and so on. It is complex.

At the other hand, it is really important as well. Marine nature is suffering from overfishing, wrong ways of fishing and so on. It should be regulated, but with respect for fishermen. These guys are really nice, freedom loving bunch of old guys. I really like them, they are still very much into freedom. They love to roam the seas, and carry a certain cultural lore we need to keep.

So treat them with respect.

One thing that is really important and a great problem for the marine ecological system is plastic in the oceans.

This is an area we can something about.

The problem is the third world, that do not burn their wast before they throw it out. They just throw their garbage in the rivers, that then carry it to the oceans.

There are numerous ways to solve it, but working with the governments that are responsible for the pollution is important. We need to stop the constant flow of garbage into the ocean. Maybe with some kind of cleaning plant at the end of the rivers. Plastic make for good fuel. So if you make a powerplant using the plastic that is otherwise just thrown into the ocean, could be a business that could work in itself maybe.

Anyway, these are the three areas you can work with.

Gettting along, and starting the work is possible.

G-d bless the will to Change the environment.

America is truly the home of idealism. Take Mr. Abraham Lincoln and the civil war. He fought not only for the power over all of the US, but most noticeably for ideas.

That all men are created equal, that slavery is tyranny.

In a way, the revolutions, especially the French revolution had a very fertile ground for idealism in the US. Still has, as the statue of Liberty underlines whenever you come to New York.

As a philosopher, and as a renaissance philosopher, who sees these basic ideas of the US as my own as well, I feel a extremely great responsibility to what the US and the Democratic cause has come to.

You know, my fellow philosophers were the ones to convey these ideas to the modern world. My task has not been to spread the ideas, but to protect them.

That is difficult, in a situation, where the ideas mature, and you see some of the negative aspects of the ideas as well, because they are there. It is written in the philosophical scripture, mainly in Plato to look out for certain problems that lie in the system and structure of the republic.

Mainly that of moral corruption, when people start taking things for granted. That was one of the reasons, that I criticized the outsourcing of American industry. That is why, I now criticize Social media.

We have to be loyal to the Democratic state, and support the institutions that it rely on. Public discourse being one of the most vital and important. If we do not debate as citizens, then how are the politicians supposed to make any laws that are the essence of the public debate?

Social media with its focus on monetary accruement, and with no eye as to how the public dialogue is supposed to work, is a huge, huge problem, and their only response to my criticism so far has been more censorship.

Anyway, there is absolutely nothing wrong with our democratic institutions, they are the best man has ever made. It makes most happiness, progress, everything. But untended it has the risk of deteriorating into business only.

That is a problem.

Anyway, as Democracy finds new ways, conquers new territory, and has to adapt to new kinds of reality, so must we as its servants, try our very best to support and enrich it.

Sometimes it will cost us, it has certainly cost me. Twenty years of unending harassments of the Danish state is the current tally of my life.

But that is the way, you need to sacrifice some of yourself, to make it work.

As the ancient Vikings said. The tree of life, needs the sacrifice of the heroes to live.

It is the same today.

That is the way of Democracy, and will always be.

G-d bless the will to be vigilant for the weaknesses of Democracy, and may we hand it down to the next generation, stronger than it was.

Ok, lets get on with the tale of Livø. The day after I arrived at Livø, this is a true story, I went to town. The town of Livø, is a small tourist spot that was built as a carehome for mentally disabled persons, that lived at the island 70 years ago. So at its time it was quite famous for its methods of taking away people who had problems living with the rest of us, and giving them a little paradise in the fjord. Not all liked it, but the intention was clear; care for people.

This is reflected in the architecture of the island. Solid, well built, beautiful housing. The roof of the local farm is made with the most exquisite stoneweave. It is so beautiful.

Anyway, I strolled around the city, and went to the grocery store. The grocery store is where everything is revolving around. It is run by a guy called mr. Bergholdt, Jesper Bergholdt, and he is a visionary himself. He used to be the proprietor of the Viking restaurant at Lindholm Høje, that is a ancient burial site of the vikings. Still there with stone settings the form of sailing vessels. Still the ravens fly high and ominous over Lindholm høje.

So mr. Bergholdt is not your run of the mill, normal propeitor, but a man of many ideas and thoughtful.

So I asked him, if he wanted to be interviewed for my tv station, and he instantly agreed, despite his maniacal pace. It was a very height of the year in terms of his business. So image this strong bull of man, with a beard as long as ZZ tops, with the voice soft as a melody, and you got the gist of it.

Anyway, as I said, there was a summer camp at the island, and I happened to bump into the leader of it, through the help of Jesper.

So we setup a talk as well.

All about sustainability.

So, just to not let you wait, let me give you the base principle, and we can it from there in the following posts.

According to Jesper, Livø, the very paradise that we strive for. What makes it so amazing is the fact, that all is in balance. Man, economy and nature.

Each has a place, and all is considered equal.

There you have it guys, the very core of the lefts argument for climate change. That man, economy and nature is equal. All is equally worth on the island of Livø. And all thrives, as it is respected.

The life stock wander the woods, clearing out the undergrowth, so that the woods have clearings as open as possible, making the sun rush through the wood like a spirit on a morning day.

It is so beautiful, you cant imagine, and it is based on the idea, that we are equal with nature and economy.

Pretty cool?

Anyway, that was the base principle, and there is much more to come.

G-bless the will to find harmony.

Ok Joe, here is what I would recommend you doing in Afghanistan.

Draw the troops out in as an orderly fashion as possible. Dont delay, dont hurry, just do it at the pace you find is the right.

At the same time, you need to get some pay back from the attack of Isis at the airport.

Send in the drones, make the attacks precise, only hitting exactly the targets that were involved in the attack on the airport, and then just continue from there. Whittle them down from the top.

What is really important is to avoid any civilian casualties. Be very, very careful. As this is a war of bombing, it is also the war of hearts and minds. Be careful not to hit any of our friends, but on the contrary help our friends. They need to be taking responsability for their own country, but we should be VERY adamant in trying to support the pro democratic movement in the country. As in the Arab spring, remember?

Now, off cause the Arab spring was different, it was just in the first term of Barack, and we were very popular at the time. So we cant rely on the support of the people at the same level. But I mean, we are in it for Democracy, and those who support us, we should support. Not nation building, but the support of those who share our values and worldview. That is fair, and hopefully, the people of Afghanistan will like our approach.

And then be adamant about that, say that you are not in it for nationbuilding, but you still support the Democratic cause, and any who do the same, will be your ally.

And then do it, without risking American lives anymore, the public is warweary, that is fine, but they still want the cause of Democracy to be seen as something worth supporting, and they will support that.

Anyway, be clear about your priorities and then just start cutting the head off the snake, so that it keeps out of the US.

G-d bless the will to be vigilant and fast in action, and you can do this Joe, it is difficult, but you can do it.

Well, as things need to be dealt with in foreign policy, we also need to keep the ball rolling in the department of Climate Change.

I have been sailing a lot this summer, as a part of my work with my little TV station. Sailing with my 23 footer, “The Mermaid”.

Most of the sailing has been done in the internal waters of the Limfjorden, maybe the best sailing area in Denmark. At least amazingly beautiful. Sailing is tough, you know, but it is also a possibility to see things and reach places that you normally would not be able to reach. As you Americans have your horses and ride into the sunset, we Danes have our sailing boats to give us freedom.

Pretty cool, actually.

Anyway, the story goes, that I was sailing to the remote Island of Livø, one of the few spots where, by the grace of the almighty, happiness and sustainability goes hand in hand.

You Americans know the vibe, because it is the same vibe that mr. Niels Bohr brought with him to the US in the Manhattan project.

A small island in the middle of the fjord, that is simply; happy.

When I arrived at the island, it was after a harrowing sailing trip. I havn´t had the Mermaid sailing for some time, so I was a bit pressed. She handled the pressure amazingly, but the waters just outside the harbour of Livø was a dangerous and difficult strait to cross, and I was a bit tired. So my arrival in the harbor was quite difficult and not that elegant. I had to arrive with sails in my hand, and happened to arrive too fast.

Anyway, I was helped, in the harbor, by a young gentleman in a one masted seafaring vessel, and I instantly liked him.

So I asked him what he was doing on the island of Livø, and he told me, that he was attending there as a part of the Socialist folkehøjskole summercamp. He told me, that he had been there since he was 5. Pretty cool guy. His ship needed repair, it was a bit unkept, but it could still sail all the way from Copenhagen to Livø.

So, I asked him, what this summercamp was all about, and he told me, that it was kind of the inspirational camp for all in the left wing party of Socialist Folkparty.

Anyway, I went down in my bunk, and rested for a bit, it was a harrowing experience sailing through Limfjorden, and I had to have some rest. But the next day I made a few appointments with the spiritual leader of Livø, and the proprietor of the Island, to try and understand what is going on on Livø.

And I will entertain you good folks who read here on Rubicon.dk over the next few weeks, because, boy was that a beautiful, harmonious understanding of sustainability. And the best of it all, it worked. Everybody was happy when I was there, even the animals!

G-d bless the will to see sustainability as something worth our while.

Well, we have to be brutally honest about the current foreign policy situation. Leaving Afghanistan has weakened the American leadership more than it already was.

I get it, we should get out of Afghanistan anyway, and we were doing quite well in subduing Al-Queda. But the move, where the Talibans are victorious, is a massive defeat in that war.

Most of the work we did in the Obama administration may just start to unravel.

That is the bad news, the good news is, that it kind of gets our attention again. We need to look at the matter, and it was a strategy that united the world behind us in the Obama term; the fight against Al Queda, Islamic State and so on.

So we have given ourselves a playing ground, that we can actually work on.

I know, that the Biden administration feels obliged to migrate a lot of the cooperating personnel that was in Afghanistan. This is, at best a mixed blessing, but I get it, it is a way to say that we are sorry, and somehow remedy the draw out a bit. The problem is, however, that we are unable to get all the Afghanis out of Afghanistan that is democratic, so to most Afghanis, it will seem pretty unfair, why this guy and not me. You see, it is a solution that will just further the feeling of unfairness.

International politics, is about trying to be fair within the frame you get. It would have been much better so spread out the effort to help as many Afghanis as possible, instead of just a few. And that would have been accepted. Sorry, but it needed to be said.

So we are back at square one, we need to look at the threat of Al Qeuda, and, hopefully, shore of support of the old strategy of hunting the leadership.

The only way for the US to regain international leadership, is to make a good, sound strategy, that people like and is fair.

Not going for muslims with a democratic understanding, and only going for the political muslim organizations is still the best bet we have, and then with a intelligent, IT based strategy.

So, we need to look forward, and understand the possibilities we have.

And then Joe, just to be brutally honest with you, a thing I wasn’t with Mette Frederiksen, current liberal PM of Denmark, you have only one card, and that is me.

I know it sounds preposterous, but my experience is, if you go too far away from my analysis, things start to unravel.

In Denmark right now, Mette Frederiksen is in free fall, I have REALLY tried to help her, but she only listened to half of what I strategized, so now she is going down. I am sorry about it, I wish it was different, but that is the reality of it.

I think the Socialdemocrats should be honest about the current state of affairs. Only in Denmark and in the US have there been any progress, and that has been because of me.

I know it sounds both preposterous, and in a way controlling, and I am sorry for that. But you need to be realistic about what you are up against. It is the same as Obama was up against, the total demise of the liberal cause.

For me, I have no problem with it, I have readers everywhere in the world, and I only help you because we are friends. Ad to that, you don’t need to listen to what I say, it is just what I see here in Denmark. The Socialdemocrats are going down fast. The Trumps administration have done too much damage to liberals, effectively pushing them too the fringes and not to the center.

Soon, things will change in Europe, the fight with the islamists, will intensify. Especially in France, things seem to heat up.

Here in Denmark, things are not going very well, and we need to find that point of balance between right and left.

And we need to focus on climate change as well, as we are occupied with the fight with the Al-qeuda, the climate change is forgotten, and that is a problem, as I see it.

Anyway, take a deep breath Joe, and look forward a few months, after the evacuation, then what? Then we need to pull that Colt 45 and start shooting, to get these enemies of Democracy.

That is the way of the US, as it has always been, weapons change, but the aim, to fight for Democracy, is still the same.

G-d bless the will to be vigilant and honest.

To understand the development of social media, one needs to understand what drives it, and how we need to tackle the challenge of some tech companies gone rogue in terms of the vigilancy towards the sanctity of democratic dialogue.

Let me be honest, it is not a good picture we see. Me, I have been at the top of the censureship apparatchniks for the last fifteen years, so I have a lot of experience with all kinds of censureship.

The way it works is like this.

The censurers of Facebook is a bunch of uneducated, lazy and unenlightened students that do censureship amid pizzas and homework.

There is absolutely no idealism in the function. In newspapers it is the opposite. Here journalists hold icons as Socrates and Voltaire as examples we try to follow. I doubt any of the censurers have ever heard about either Socrates or Voltaire.

Facebook has developed a regime of censorship. There is from low level to high level.

At the low level, Facebook puts up a warning, to tell you to follow their policies, that are, at best, opaque and lack any meaning.

If you do not follow this command, you will get censored. You can be censored from a few days to a month.

But at the same time, Facebook have developed “shadow banning”. That is, they have built in in their software an option to censure postings they do not like, so that very few people see them.

Add to this a focus on advertisment, so that if you pay, you can get your message out.

So, in practise, the rich rules Facebook, because they pay.

This Machaivellian system rules over mankind, more or less.

There is no way, that you can object to the verdict of the censurers. Practically ruling out basic rights as freedom of speech and the ability to make peace through dialogue.

In effect it creates small bubbles of culture that do not talk with anyone but people they share worldview with.

In the ancient democratic forum, the strenght of that forum was a debate on things with people who disagree.

So in order to fix the massive censureship, illegal censureship, of Facebook and other social media. The government and the justice system must take control of the censoring process.

It should meet legislation in the country that people reside in.

This is not easy, but it is necessary, because social media have develop to such a threat to the democratic debate and dialogue.

If you put people in charge of the very centre of a democratic infrastructure that have no idea about how it is suppose to work, you get the systems we have now.

Since the IT tychoons seem to be of the understanding, that the democratic dialogue should conform to their understanding, and not that they are servants of democracy, the justice system must take over, and make a system that will serve the public.

G-d bless the will to take action on the undemocratic and hence dangerous social media in the view of an ideal world of public dialogue.

We have a bit of a problem with the Social Media. Me myself, I have had a lot of problems with social media lately, mainly because I have opposed the Black Lives Matter/woke political ideas that are alive and fighting in Denmark.

I do this, because I do not accept racism, and you can come from left or right, racism is racism.

So, Facebook has started banning me, and censuring me.

This has stressed the point, for me, that the censurship of Social media is truly out of hand.

In China the communist leaders have reached the same conclusion, and have been cracking down on Chinese mega techs.

Anyway, it does not seem to me, that the American Social media are listening much to what I say. I have been talking about open source and the importance of open social media. My own experience is, that Youtube seem to be listening a little, but Facebook remains totally unforgiving and keep on bashing the old racist tree.

Anyway, this underlines the problems that current social media encounters. At one hand, social media is responsible for the democratic debate happening in a serious and enlightened manner. At the other hand it is a business.

For now at least, it has been all about business. The social media platforms have allied themselves with the bad guys of western society, that is the secret police, at least here in Denmark, and have, more or less ignored the rest of the society.

This has led to a KGB like system, that censures all that is not in the interest of the secret police, and in the censorship that is, at best, haphazard,

Anyway, it calls for reform, but what reform.

Here we need to understand, that the best possible solution would be, if the owners of social media can plan and manage the job themselves. This is why I have been very reluctant to start a debate on the management of social media.

IT companies like Facebook and Youtube needs a lot of freedom to be able to invest in Research and development.

Making new features and staying ahead of the rest of the market is extremely important.

So controlling Facebook, Youtube and other Social media will effectively constrain them a lot, and effectively eventually kill them, even.

That is what is happening in China.

So we should be realistic about the means we apply, and the consequence.

But the KGB like censorship regime Social media is applying right now is worse than curbing the freedoms of social media.

What we need is a transparent, fair and controlled environment, that is based on sound principle. We need to be able to censure some things, but censureship should be handled by professional judges and not student workers.

The state should control social media, and not private investors. It is such a critical piece of infrastructure, that we cannot allow young people with no idea about how to do democratic debate run them.

Sorry, but that is the reality of it.

So we need to see some kind of proposal for legislation, where Social media is effectively controlled by the judges. That is the best we can do now.

I will follow up on this posting in the next couple of months.

G-d bless the will to make a more transparent world.

Ok, the Afghanistan draw out is kind a reaching a climax. All the newspapers have smelled blood of a leader that they can intimidate, and the ground personnel in Afghanistan are not feeling a sense of security.

So what do we do?

We show that we understand the game of international politics, and we make the moves, that makes most sense in the situation. With the wellbeing of all of East Asia as the true aim of the situation.

From when I put some thoughts to this issue until now, the following have happened;

Most importantly Turkey seems to accept the idea, that we work with the close vicinity of Afghanistan in terms of shoring up the refugees and giving the refugees a permanent to semipermanent place to stay.

This is because all the migrants/refugees are going to end up in Turkey making the life of mr. Erdogan really problematic. Already a lot of the Syrian migrants are making his life a problem, because they make a lot of problems in Turkey, effectively pushing the electorate to the fringes of Turkish politics. The extreme rightwing of Turkey are called Grey Wolfes and they are pretty scary.

So a massive wave of migrants from Afghanistan would further destabilise Turkey, and that is a problem.

It seems to me, that the current solution to the massive possible exodus from Afghanistan has been to promise a small number of migrants stay in Western Europe. That will create a huge pushback from the fringes of European politics, and might just cost mr. Johnson his seat. He was elected to make migrants go out of the country, not go in. So that is a very dangerous solution to the stability of the European governments as well.

What is a possible solution however, is still to make a diplomatic blitz to the neighbouring countries around Afghanistan. Turkey would be very much in agreement with this idea, and it will effectively send a message to the Afhganis, that we will help as much as we can, but migration is not an option.

It is not fair, because the redrawal of troops and the consequent take over by Taliban was not fair, but that is the best we can do in the situation.

Anyway, we must, as I see it, seeks diplomatic solutions with the neighbouring countries to Afghanistan, and then we must start hunting the leaders of the Taliban.

We must also seek results in the other areas of conflict where the Al Qeudas are. Give people the impression, that we are doing all we can to solve the problem.

Israel is very much with us on this, so we have the best partner possible.

Then there is the press. When they smell a weak leader, they will go into a frenzy, and start accusing you of this and that. Dont worry too much about it, adress the problems the best you can. But the press in this situation are just going bollocks, and there is nothing much you can do about it. Talk with them, explain your plans, and then just take it easy and stay calm.

Dont take it too serious, but show strength by remaining calm and on the ball.

You can do this Joe.

G-d bless the will to stay calm, in the eye of the storm.

Joe, we need a new strategy to counter the old Afghanistan strategy. I know, that the populace is really annoyed we the redrawal from Afghanistan. I am with you on this, this has been going on for too long. But we still need to be seen as doing some action on this issue.

I have been doing a lot of research while Trump was at the helm, and here are some of the insights that could be of use.

Osama Bin Laden, Al-Queda, the muslim brotherhood and all the other radical sunni muslim terrorist organizations, are ruled by a small clique of intellectuals and leaders.

The way it works is like this. The secret organizations of the sufi, that is a brotherhood of sunni muslim intellectuals do all the heavy lifting when it comes to the intellectual development.

These guys are actually a lot cooler than you would imagine. They are spiritual, but in a more liberal sense, they are mystics and have been around for as long as islam itself.

Their leader is called Qutb. As the spiritual leader of the Muslim brotherhood, that is the true machinator of the islamic renaissance.

Anyway, their true weakness is their very strict rank of command. Cut the head of the snake, the snake dies. Maybe not in fast way, but the intellectual nourishment all true strains of wisdom and belief needs will be cut off.

You could say, that this is mean, but in Islam an intellectual is just as much a warfarer as an intellectual.

So, this is a possible new strategy; cut off the head of the snake.

It is much cheaper in terms of equipment, it uses our resources at the best. We are leading in reconnaissance, IT equipment, precise bombing and so on.

But we should be careful, because the war from the sky is very unpopular, it will not win us hearts and minds, but will weaken the enemy.

So go for the top, use the clandestine arms of the fighting force, and simply dismantle the Sunni muslim uprising through understanding their organization.

They fight in secret ways, so we should do the same.

G-d bless the will to continue fighting, but this time with means that will actually hurt the enemy.

Well, we have a very tough discussion on IT companies attack on civil rights as free speech and privacy of data.

First of all, I get it, we live in a dangerous world, and giving terrorists acces to a new IT structure to do whatever they want is off cause a bad thing.

At the other hand, the infrastructure of blogs and the internet in general, is there to underpin the democratic system.

Let me try to explain. In Google and Facebook and many other IT Companies, you have what is called a organization based on the “Copenhagen Spirit”. Mr. Niels Bohr, was the de facto leader of the Manhatten project that created the nuclear bomb, and he took the spirit of his research facility of Copenhagen and brough it to the US. It was so inspiring, that it still is there all these years after he came to the US. That is a creative environment, where people of skill have free rein to use their creativity, and there is a pursuit of knowledge and ideas, right?

It creates an amazing environment of production that has given us titans as Google, Facebook, Apple and many other IT companies.

But, and this is something you guys need to remember, Mr. Niels Bohr gave us a mission. After he finished the bomb, he realized to his horror the tool he had made. It could destroy the world, effectually creating a nuclear armageddon. So, he did what he thought was right, and wrote a famous letter to the UN, calling for a world of openess.

His good friend, and my predecessor mr. Knud Ejlar Løgstrup, was the Danish philosopher of the day, and he believed that to make trust and mercy work in a Democratic system, one needs openness.

So, as a act of trying to spread that idea around the world, Mr. Niels Bohr wrote the letter called the Weapon of Openness.

Now, you can arm Facebook and all the other IT infrastructure for good or bad. But if you want to stay on course and realize the ideas of Bohr, you need to keep the world Open.

It will, hopefully, create more trust. I know, that people have started fighting in the internet like never before, and we have violent and destructive political strains of political developments as a consequence.

When people are in the know, they get angry.

But, that does not mean, that the idea is wrong, it just means, that we need to make an open world, that gives people positive incitements as well, right?

PRIORITIZE the positive in the flow of communication, but dont start the censureship. That is the opposite of what a democratic society is about. And it will just start a wide crackdown on IT companies that do not respect basic rights of the citizens.

My advice would be, to see of the IT companies develop a balanced and positive approach to communication, and stop the censurship.

If not, we have to start cracking down on them.

I am an internet nerd, the great grandfather of blogging, and I would hate to crack down on the next and next generation. But virtue is needed to make the internet whole and positive. The basic virtue being Openness.

G-d bless the will to make an Open world.

When the US went into Afghanistan, it was a reaction to 9/11. An attack on New York in the middle of the day. Mr. Bush used the military to attack a country that, at that time, was the epicenter of a virulent version of islam, a sunni muslim renneassance version of islam including a political state and a repressive law system.

You can like that system or not, but these guys killed over a thousand civilians, just to prove a point.

The strategies change. When Barack Obama was at the helm, it was not so, that the sunni muslim rebels were given a wide berth. We fought them with new strategies such as drones and alliances with local democratic parties. The prime of them being the Kurds.

But Afghanistan remained as a country that we tried to build a democracy in. We kind of inheretid the problem.

One strategy is to go in and occupy a territory, another strategy is to use a combination of modern warfare equipment and diplomacy to reach our goals.

As of now, the last strategical approach is still in function, and it has made a wide alliance including both sunni and a few shia. Why? Because it is a balanced, intelligent and fair approach. It measures the response to the attack, and acts to refrain from civilian casualties.

But that still questions the occupation of Afghanistan. My view on it has always been to try and stop the occupation without leaving the population of Afghanistan at the mercy of the Sunni rebels.

This was also the approach of Bidens administration, but it seems to me, that the consequences are very dire for the populace of Afghanistan.

This is a problem we have to do something about. But just migrating all democratic Afghans to Europe will not solve the issue, it will pour gasolin on the fire of the antimigrant debate. So that is also a no go.

What we need to do, is to make an alliance with a neighboring country, and see if we can make a safe haven for the refugees there.

At least, if it is possible, it is the most balanced solution. Having Europe go into flames, is as bad as having all the Afghans killed. It will definetely create a chaotic situation.

This calls for decisive action and make fast and viable solutions for all included.

It also calls for a rapt surveillance of the current development of the anti islamic state initiative.

While Bush fought to fight the Talibans and the Sunni extremists on their own turf, we need to fight with the new methods of warfare; complicated it equipment, surveillance, and diplomacy.

This has not been in vain, we just changed tactics.

G-d bless the decisive action and tough approach to islamic state vigilanties.

When you want to Change the World, it is difficult, people react in different ways based on their world view. In the old world, Change is riddled with violence and destruction. If you want to Change something, you can be sure, that you get the entire system on your back. They will kill you parents, destroy your family, and steal your money, just to shut you up. Destruction seems to be the only answer to Change. They do not want to Change, well yes on a superficial level, but truly making a better world is definitely not in the books.

In the New world things are different, here Change is welcomed, and truly celebrated. Especially in the US, things Change according to a beautiful plan, idealism and faith in a dream of a world where we are actually happy remains as a strong drive for a better world. I mean, all my predecessors here from Europe either died here, og escaped to the US. So no wonder it is such an idealistic country. The US is s country made by rebels to rebels.

But the world has actually changed lately due to the development of the Internet, for a blink of an eye, the world opened up due to the faithfullness of the open soruce programmers, but is now closing down again.

That blink of an eye, where mr. Niels Bohrs idea of a an Open world was truly realized, is what we are still hoping for. Will good prevail, or will we enter another phase of closing things up, outruling the ability for people to reach each other in openness?

That is the way of the world, good and bad, hope and despair changes.

But as there is despair, there is also hope, and hope is what I and many are rooting for.

G-d bless the will to be hopefull in a world of despair.

When we talk about the consolidation of the Western Hemisphere, we need to understand what we come from, and then what we can mend and consolidate.

To do this, we need to understand other examples of conquest, empires and successes in that area.

To be really honest about the difficulties we see in regards to the English empire, we need to understand what was good about it, and what was bad.

The good thing about the English empire was the democratic system, that the Brits brought with them everywhere. It was a oxfordian discussion on how to make a good system in each colony that brought these ideas around the world. If we look at the world, it is still there, almost everywhere. In Africa, in Asia and in America. Why? Because people in these countries really like the system. It is not perfect, but whenever people try something different, it fails, and often with a considerable tragedy in terms of human suffering.

Add to this, the same system brought by the French, and Democracy as an idea is a sweeping success.

But, and this is where we need to be honest, there were other players in the colonial expansion; that of the banks and that of the colonial masters. The banks used their processes to rein in the power of the countries and the colonial masters were often cruel.

In this world, if you do something cruel, it comes back and you have to pay a price for it.

This is why we are seeing a degrading of the British empire into a sorry state, to be honest.

What we need to do, and this is something the Russians have been doing with great success, is to sponsor the positive sides of our culture, and thereby create a common wealth with unity in it.

The Russians all have a common Russian identity, based on the virtues of the Russian state. It works, today Russia is even bigger than the British empire, and there are no rebellion or anything.

The Russian expansion is off cause much older than the British, and has had more time to find a balance, but we can actually learn from that success. The way they did it, is by finding a positive common system that all can identify with.

The same process is what we are working on with the British empire. Find the positive common principles, that all of the former colonies like.

Thereby creating peace.

It struck me, when I talked with the Pakistani scholar at Oxford. He wanted some kind of Islamic state, but he truly recognized the values and virtue of a humanistic, democratic state, as Pakistan has today. But it has to be something that actually works for the people of Pakistan.

In this way, if we stay on course, and work on a positive, realistic common set of ideas, that all share, that has been a British colony, we can bring peace and prosperity for all.

G-d bless the will to find peace.

Now, I am very much against the whole race discourse.

Why? Well, essentially the system or idea about race, takes away any personal freedom the individual has, and judges people by something he or she cannot change, the color of his skin.

That is taking all possibility of making your own life, and make something out of your life based on your abilities.

But at a more profound level, I vehemently oppose the idea of race, because it was a part of the colonial control system. Just as when the banks controlled the colonies by giving them loans, the inhabitants of the colonies were treated as subhumans based on their skin color.

It put the white man at the top of the food chain and the black man at the bottom of the food chain.

So, when you continue banging that drum of race, all you do is to repeat the control system, in a new way.

Giving people of color preference in the system, is just turning the control system upside down.

This does not mean, that we should not help poor people, but they should not be judged by the color of their skin, but on what they do.

The US has ALREADY changed its mind on race, the independence wars was about race, because it essentially was against the colonial control system. The founding fathers wanted to build a nation without regard to race, thereby giving the people freedom.

To be honest, and I say this as a man color, because I am not white, the founding fathers came up with a system, that gives people the opportunity to be free, and find their own way in life.

They dreamed about a perfect society for everybody, white, black, everybody. A place where people were NOT judged by the color of their skin, but by the actions they do.

I stand for that dream, as it is mine.

So that is what I have fought for, my whole life, and I am not about to change that attitude, whatever you think. I will not accept that my little brown daughter is different from my little white daughter. Just because they have different skin color.

It is a vicious idea, and the very idea is what is wrong to me.

G-d bless the will to see the world as a place, where we can be judged by the actions we do, and not the color of our skin.

Now listen. We are up against China, whether we like it or not. It is like that. What we can do however, is to choose ourselves how we tackle the challenge.

What we need to do, is to be brutally honest to ourselves about the challenge. How have we been faring so far, and then what do we need to do to solve the challenge.

If we look at history, we haven’t even been able to decipher what is going on, so we need to get that down as a starter.

What is going on, is that China has taken the role of the colonizer from the English Crown. The systems and methods that the Brits used until Second World War, has been replicated by the Chinese. They use the banks to enslave the colonies, and suck their ressources.

This is not the criticize the brits, but to understand what the Chinese are doing. They simply filled the void that the brits left, as the grew weak in competition with the Americans.

The Americans would never use the same methods as the brits, because they themselves have tasted the sharp end of the colonial whip, and refuse to use the same methods. However this leaves a void, that the Chinese, with an acute willingness filled.

So, when you think of it, how do the Chinese treat the West, do they do this by trying to use the banks to enslave them?

Wake up guys, the Chinese are only lending all the money the do to try and enslave the West, there will be a time, when they want the money back, with interests, and we have to pay them back in ressources.

They are, effectively using our own methods on us.

That is why it is so important to try and get the books to balance again, and spend only what we make, not the other way around.

At the end of the day, what hinders the Chinese to really try and put us down, is our military, that they are effectively sponsering themselves, by giving us so much loans.

But as soon as that balance is shifting in the favor of the Chinese, this will not hinder them in taking our ressources, as they are doing with all the other colonies that they are acquiring around the globe.

That is the scale of the terrifying challenge, if we do not take this on in a decisive manner, once more America will be a colony.

And I know that that is not an option for the freedom lovers of a former colony.

So you guys need to be serious about this, tighten the belt, and start producing wealth based on your own skills. It can be done, but it will require severing the ties with China in terms of economic cooperation. Corporate America must understand the severity of the situation, and start making things in the US.

Made in America is more than just a election trope, it is a strategy to keep the US independent, in the end it is THE most freedom loving action American business can do, because it effectively hinders the acquiring of the US as a colony of China.

Look at China it pulled itself up by its shoestrings, we can do the same, if we start gettting serious about this challenge.

But we need to be serious in order to stop the colonial machinators in the deep recess of China.

Anyway, we should also be positive, and see this as an opportunity to grow and expand our industrial base, instead of just handing it over to our arch enemy.

G-d bless the will to ORGANIZE!
