Various South American nations are 'recalling their ambassadors' in response to the current Gaza mania.
It's a good example to set the West and I hope that a few Western politicians have similar levels of gumption. It will never happen in the UK or the US, but if 15 European nations did likewise, along with 15 Asian ones, 15 African ones and 15 Pacific Island ones, Israel might just start to get the message that it is headed in entirely the wrong direction.
UK announced a 5 million people health survey, collecting blood tests and DNA. We have ULEZ charging uncompliant cars in London using ANPR cameras..... her article shows .e what they aspire to and how to get there.
Why I will never be in tune with a Judea-Christian worldview/mindset, because everything MUST have a beginning and also everything MUST come to an end. We’re only players in a time and space limited on this earth. In Eastern view they talk about Yuga’s a concept of million years and also about Kalpa’s 2,4 billion years. It never begins not even with the Big Bang, there were many and many will follow, and every end the collapse of a universe brings a new Kalpa. This is born out of meditation, Dhyana not information, the wisdom that you are consciousness as your being goes beyond the stars and the light and beyond Judaism, Christianity and Islam who keep fighting for the ashes. We’re all merged with this consciousness where else can we go?
Seems the Zionist power is opting for mass murder and the elements will help. From it's view the profit from natural gas offshore must not be shared. Netanyahu tweets out by accident that his phone call with the Pope was quite clear-"Ceterum (autem) censeo Palestinians esse delendam"("Furthermore, I consider that Palestinians must be destroyed")
Some say that's not the real pope. If Netanyahu is somehow failing to lie about the pope, then it cannot be a real pope, based upon that. There have been many false popes through the centuries, right?
It seems like they are going to proceed with the genocide, daring anybody to stop them as they do so.
The form of stopping them will require a lot of unity in "the resistance". That is what US/Israel/NATO are betting against.
Well ya know, between you and me and Substack, the overall cost benefit for the U.N. and Leviathan is even more valuable than Natural Gas.
"to be an individual in the shadow of the Leviathan is no easy task. “Admittedly,” Jünger writes, “asserting one’s freedom today has become especially difficult. Resistance demands great sacrifices, which explains why the majority prefer to accept the coercion.”
As Jünger realizes, to raise a distinctive voice in the face of the “mass plebiscite” may well lead to the destruction of its owner, for ours is a world where no trifle goes unpunished or unscrutinized. Remaining silent is similarly dangerous, for silence too is a kind of answer:
They ask us why we kept quiet at just that place and time, and present us the bill for our response. These are the quandaries of our times, which none can escape.
Jünger’s musings on this point recall the contemporary experience of social media and “cancel culture,” where any who dares question whatever the current consensus happens to be runs the risk of being “cancelled,” or subjected to torrents of abuse and baseless accusation worthy of little beyond a lawsuit for libel. So too the refusal to join in the cacophony of outrage and popular demonstrations of “solidarity” that dominate our civil space. Non-participation quickly renders one ideologically suspect, for “Non-participation is one of the attitudes that unsettles the Leviathan.” Indeed, in such a world of enforced consensus and Orwellian distortions of truth, Jünger asserts that “it is only through reflection that we gain new security.”
But how does one find his way through to the forest passage, obscured as it is by dense foliage, barbed brambles, and overgrown footpaths? Jünger suggests that the humanities—art, theology, and philosophy—remain the essential guides that can show us the way through to these depths.
A gamble of this kind can only hope to succeed if the three great powers of art, philosophy, and theology come to its aid and break fresh ground in the dead-end situation.
By engaging with the vast repositories of human thought, we cultivate an “evaluating consciousness” that hones our ability to judge and contemplate—an essential skill set in a time marked by pervasive propaganda and crisis where “neither law or custom will remain standing.” Indeed, it is with this gloss on the inherent power of creative works that we can make sense of the mania for iconoclasm that characterizes various ideological movements, both present and historic. Whether we speak of mass book-burnings or the compulsive need to “deconstruct” art and literature, the hatred of culture rears its head whenever the Leviathan draws near. Should man’s access to these higher modes of activity be severed, he can quickly be rendered docile and easy to manipulate.
Antithetical to the saving power of the humanities is the ensorcelling power of technology, which facilitates the titanic reach of the Leviathan by abrogating law and corrupting the idea of the state. Jünger’s writing resounds with references to the growing “automatism” of our time and to the expansive technological apparatus that “encircles” man and foments his destruction—both physically, on the modern battlefields where none are spared the designation of combatant, and spiritually, through the ossification of man’s internal powers by the myriad technical theories that “strive for logical and seamless explanation of the world.” So too man must contend with the modern technological metropolis, where invasive means of surveillance record his every move, and endless rows of metallic skyscrapers stretch ever upwards—dominating the heavens like mass-produced towers of Babel. In one particularly striking passage, Jünger evokes the famous sinking of the Titanic to illustrate the double-edged nature of technological progress:
Here light and shadow collide starkly: the hubris of progress with panic, the highest comfort with destruction, and automatism with a catastrophe manifested as a traffic accident. (I had this in my notes but I think the source is from
I appreciate the case being made there, but it is the view of one who is perplexed and does not see how and when to act morally, when the problem first presents in his path. That is the spiritual challenge, to act decisively as soon as the deadly threat appears, likely before it is even appreciated by most others.
That is why I accepted firing for vaccine-refusal, rather than apply for a conscience-exemption, which would have been granted, as it was to others.
No, I saw that I had to "stand naked with the Jews", and nothing less would be fully moral, because nothing less would publicly defy the immorality of dehumanizing "the unvaccinated".
I never expected to be in such a situation, but I recognized it for what it was when it arose in my path.
Those of us who stood openly in public against that dehumanization kept it from prevailing.
I respect you for this choice. And of course for speaking out. There is not really a pre-Covid touchstone for our insane hour. Or then from a different view there is-in every generation there are men and women who stood openly in public against dehumanization. And in doing so kept it from prevailing. Dietrich Bonhoffer is one. Martin Luther King another. John Day still one more.
I realized that. Naturally no wish for that martyrdom encounter. You had your own share already. And you are stronger by it. I am saying that courage is uncommon and you are in the company of men of courage.

Dear Lord, deliver us from evil. I pray all day, every day for humankind - in GOD we Trust ...
We must seek the ways that we can reduce the suffering of those in crisis and anguish.
We can pray compassionately and share their loads of suffering from afar.

I suspect that only a broad military/economic "message" will be understood.
That is bound to be hard for countries to agree upon and enact in unison.

I read that. She has a fairly good view from where she is, and seeks to be fully human.
I can see how the owners imagine their toys to work, and to turn humans into "their toys", also.

It's like when there is nowhere to go in a dream, and you wake up.
You got it right on 🫶

Israel, one of the most jabbed countries on earth by percentage. Pre-punishment?
It's hard to know where that particular curse will lead.

That would be a dead end, and also it's our current starting point, to a large degree.
