Eso’s Chronicles 236/ 22
Dream-time Long Lost
© Eso A.B.
 

In the preceding blogs I tell how when the West speaks of ‘democratic’ governments it speaks of self=securitizing governments, which means that the Parliaments of these governments stand for self-interest, though they may have some diversity of personal opinion. Since most of these governments are now ready to merge in one or another kind of federated union, it means that the emergent super states are also going to be super-fascist states; re: Super Self-Securitizing Centralized Powers (SSSCP).

As readers know, I trace the beginning of this self-evident catastrophe to the flight of the Goths (formerly Vikings) from the fall of the Byzantine Empire, which they had much to do with screwing up. I hold that before the arrival of these Vandals (but another name for the Varangians and Vikings), the Byzantine Empire existed in a “dream-time”, a time which remains reflected in much neglected fairy-tales.

If anyone cares to note, fairy-tales reflect the life of humankind living deep in the forest ‘dreaming’ of some far off Kingdom where peace and fairness rules. The King of this Dream Land was most likely known by a number of names: Prester John, G(Y)enghis Khan, John The Baptist, or simply John (Yan, Han, Huan, Ian, Ivan, Johann, etc.). It is likely that this King was real, one of the founding priests of a Temple in the Forest.

Since human beings were still used to exercising the liberties offered by the environment of the wood, and, therefore, disobedient to all disciplinary directives from anyone who presumed authority, the authority in order to be obeyed had to prove itself through self-sacrifice. It was the charisma of self-sacrifice to death what impressed the unbelieving men and women of the wood and named the authority, Him-Her, the Thing, das Ding, King or Queen.

As time went by, the Temple grew, developed, and acquired wealth. The latter caused envy among certain men of the wood who may have deemed themselves Cynics or Realists. It was easier and safer to be a Realist to come raid the Temple from far away than one who was living nearby. This is how the first traitors emerged—from afar. When the men who lived in destitution in a land known as Scandinavia heard of this wealth, they went Viking (literally wading) down rivers of Europe East and West, brought ‘dream-time’ to an end, and instituted the secular kingdom. Evidence of this, if we care to look, lies in pieces of half-truths all about.

When the Vikings or Varangians wiked their way during the 8th and 11th centuries to the Black and Caspian seas http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4454202,00.html , and discovered Jerusalem [then Byzantium (tsargrad or koenigsberg)] certain ‘Hans’ or ‘Huns’ (or was it Johns?) attacked the Vikings from the East and forced them to retreat whence they had come. It is then that so-called Goths arrived into the area now known as the Benelux, began to fight among themselves, out of which fights emerged what we today know as the French, the English, and the Germans.

It should not be surprising that the descendants of these Goths-Anglo Saxons remembered the tales of their forebears, and once stabil in their new home land looked for a pretext to return to the southeast of Europe and attack the Huns. By then the Children of the Wood had changed their name from “cross my heart and hope to die”, Johns of the Cross (the cross meant my signature), to the Children of Johns (Yohammads). Contrary to the Catholic Church, founded by the Goths as an alternative to the religion of the East, which claims history to begin with the birth of Jesus some two thousand years ago, the actual history begins with the sacrifice of a Jesus like being, probably a version of Prester John, John the Baptist, or Ghegis Khan about the time of 11th or 12th centuries. If anyone wishes to discover more on the matter, I recommend Anatoly Fomenko’s, “History: Fact or Fiction”, 2nd  vol. In other words, the Crusades began with the attempt by the French to return to Byzantium.

Today, the French, just like the Jews, are a mirror image of their former Viking and destitute selves. Let us remember Jehanne D’Ark or la Pucelle, who saved the craven secularists in the 15th century by her self-sacrifice. Today, knowing that their nation is about to be submerged into a centralized state known as the European Union, all three nations that emerged from the Vikings are desperately looking for a way out. The French, finding themselves geographically and economically in a vulnerable position, are—like the Brits and Germans—looking for a way to escape this fate. The French, in the personage of their socialist Prime Minister Hollande http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/1.558565 are willing to risk WW3 to save France as a nation, while Israel and Saudi Arabia are making plans of their own to attack Syria http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4454202,00.html

Regarding the domestic troubles of the French, the following link is enlightening: http://www.testosteronepit.com/home/2013/11/22/the-most-despised-tax-and-retreat-french-president-sinks-dee.html

The cycle of history--fictional history by the way--is about to repeat itself. If Jesus was crucified in 1083 or 1183, as per Anatoly Fomenko, and the First Crusade was the one that began in 1204 and ended with the sacking of Constantinople (then Jerusalem), then the French Prime Minister is fishing for another blood bath today.

Eso’s Chronicles 230/ 1
New Kursk 01
© Eso A.B.
 
The following link by “Battlefields” on the battle of Kursk http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22xpNBJCS4U  in 1943 is lengthy and leaves something to be desired, nevertheless, it shows how the battle took a long time being prepared by both Germany and Russia. The preparations and their length by both sides are most impressive, not least, because they show that both sides had their apprehensions about coming out on the winners’ side. In this writer’s opinion, another such battle (not necessarily of tanks, which may have become an outmoded weapon) is being prepared for in the Middle East and in the Baltic; in other words, a battle across a very wide front indeed.
 
While I cannot give any actual outlines of the battle to come, I will present its rough outlines and raisons d'ĂȘtre in the next few blogs.
 
Just yesterday there was a news item in the Reuters News Service, that U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry has warned Israel http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/11/07/us-palestinians-israel-kerry-idUSBRE9A60P220131107  that if it does not join the American-brokered peace negotiations in the Middle East, it was likely to be soon facing a Third Palestinian Intifada and other geopolitical problems in the not too distant future.
 
The Secretary of State’s warning comes in the context of a reassessment of recent American and NATO strategies, which likely caused all the Great Powers who form on what was once Pangaea http://geology.csupomona.edu/drjessey/class/Gsc101/Plate.html , the original land mass of our planet, to tickle their nuclear buttons. In other words, Europe, Asia and all the abutting lands, have for approximately a thousand years been facing a concerted Western strategy to occupy the land whence they themselves originally came from. Wishing to shed the spiritual discipline of their forebears, the Westerners decided that they would create a history of their own, albeit a history of fiction, which would allow them to attack the descendants of the powers that remained in charge of their own ancient homelands.
 
In the thousand years or so since the Carolingian kings the divisions and regroupings occurred among the various powers in the Western lands have been many. The original attacks by the West on the East can be identified with the early Crusades, starting about the 11th and 12th centuries of the 2nd millennium. In these attacks only the peripheral borderlands of the East were chiseled from it, and some beachheads captured, notably at the eastern end of the Mediterranean Sea and northeastern Europe.
 
My own country, Latvia, is part of the chiseled part of the East. Originally, the Germans, part of the great migration of the Goths (first as Vikings to the Black Sea region, then as various tribes of Goths backing away toward the northeast of Europe (the so-called Benelux countries), under the pressure of the advancing Turkic tribes or, as some prefer to call them—Huns. In the Benelux area, the Goths split up in three four main branches: the Germans, French, English, and Scandinavians. Latvia, then part of a geographical area known as Livonia, has its origins in the German desire to be independent of French Rule and the burden of French Paris as their capital city. Thus, early German warriors, known as Teutonic Knights, ventured into the relatively sparsely settled wooded lands of the European northeast, and established a city we now know as Riga. Originally, Riga was slated to become the future capital of Germany.
 
Riga was founded in 1201 by cannon Albert of Bremen http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_of_Riga, who was elevated to the rank of bishop by his uncle Hartwig archbishop of Bremen and Hamburg. Bishop Albert also founded the Teutonic Knights with whom he subjugated most of the Baltic tribes native to the area.
 
Though seldom mentioned and for political reasons never pressed, one of the reasons for the founding of Riga was to found a future capital city for the Germanic people.  One of the subtitles that Bishop Albert gave to Riga was Jerusalem, which indicates, at the very least, that in his mind’s eye Riga in the future was ‘up there’ with Constantinople and other major cities of the West and East. Again for political reasons, this high status for Riga remains unrealized and is reason why the subject is deliberately muted. Nevertheless, those powers, which have an eye on the future, of Europe as a federated state, retain an interest in Riga as a city founded by Germans. Not least among these are Latvians come under the Anglo-Saxon influence and are linking their future with NATO, which in one way or another is replacing the Teutonic Brotherhood.
 
Russia, too, has a no less greater interest in Riga than the West. To understand this better, we have to remember the trading history of Russia, which begins above the polar circle in Murmansk, moved south to Novgorod the Great, and later--with the building of St. Petersburg—moved even further south. By the beginning of the 20th century, Riga, then still part of tsarist Russia, had become the third largest city in Russia. While today Riga has lost its glory, the recent military maneuvers by Russia and NATO http://www.independent.ie/world-news/europe/tensions-rise-with-russia-as-nato-to-stage-biggest-war-games-in-seven-years-29733358.html  suggest that its geopolitical importance is not being overlooked in the centers of power and is the cause of considerable hubris in government circles of Latvia itself.
