A Brief History of Prehistory 4
Hieros Gamos means Holy Marriage, and ‘hiermalgamy’ means a forced or unholy marriage by secular authorities of people to governments through the act of taxation or other violent and unnatural join-tings or divorces.

Why did I return to Latvia?

It is a good question. I have no short answer for. The best that I can say: Because of memories. Some seventy years ago, I lost a great many of my family because they were Latvians and much involved in creating it: I returned to see what the ‘renewed’ Latvians would make of their effort (as a ‘no joke’ religious congregation, the Herrnhuters*) came to Livonia from central Europe, region of Moravia, to rebuild the morale of Livonians after the devastating Great Northern War (1700-1720), and in the process made the Estonians and Latvians among the Livonians recognize themselves as a distinct groups of people, which thereafter became communities in their own right and in later years emerged as separate nation.

My ‘return’ in many ways has been a disappointment, as it forces one to become witness to how Soviet re-educated ‘nice’ people who then through their own corrupt govRmnt become political traitors to their own. One of the reasons is a refusal to investigate their history. The govRmnt is sponsoring one such uninvestigative group of ‘nice’ Latvians to plan for the country’s Centenial (2018).* I wonder how this can be done if one perceives one’s self through Zionist eyes and surrenders sovereignty to banks.

At the beginning of Latvia as a nation (1918), the Western Christian Church—introduced in the country in the 12^th century by German traders and crusaders—was content to call the people ‘pagans’ to better make them ‘Catholic’ or Western Christians. As I have written elsewhere, the word ‘pagan’ does not mean heathen, but ‘lesser Johns’ or Yans, re: pa(meaning lesser) + gans=Yans (John or herder). Yanis was a name with sacred connotations, as it also stood for the chief herder, the sacred Yan of a community of herders. Today everyone in Latvia pretends not to know who Yanis-John-Johann was; though a little less pretentious and orthodox mindset would discover that John stands for the King of the Wood, the protector of reindeer and their herders, or, if you will, John the Baptist, or John Basil, the first who was decapitated, the second incinerated by the Catholic clergy round about the 10^th and 11^th centuries; then replaced with one Jesus the Crucified. This Church of John of the Wood used to be located in Yersika (short for Jerusalem), was located at the beginning of the old delta of the River Daugava, and was not all that far from Byzantium (approximately 1200km or 800mi from the Baltic to the Black Sea). I presume it was once among the livelier places in Livonia. The allegedly eradicated people of this Eastern Christian Church remained a lively community (though they lacked  a history, which the Western Church repressed, and met but once a year—at the summer solstice, though until the 18^th century, they may have done so also at the winter solstice) until the beginning of WW2. Thereafter the Soviets destroyed it, what with turning the countryside into a factory, with their westernized notions of globalization. After the Soviet govRmnt fell, the govRment of ‘renewed’ Latvia adhered to an outdated Christian chronology and mythology of whence the country’s history. The Summer Festival of the Children of Johns (Latvians) has been turned into a ‘nice’ holiday weekend with lots of car crashes due to drunken celebrants.

While the European West pretends to be certain that its history is believable (though it is not), the history of the East of Europe comes with a reminder that no one is certain what it is or was. No one cares to consider that Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Western Ukraine, Belorussia, and Russia stem from the same Eastern Indo-European root, wherein the aforementioned were more or less one and the same. While the link suggests that the group fragmented about three thousand years ago, the fragmentation probably began with unrest that resulted from the murder by secular powers of the forest people’s sacred forest King. Most tribes fled West and in due course submitted to the rewritten religious text of the dominant or largest groups, thus, abandoning their Eastern (taxless) Christian ways for a religion that compromised with the secular princes and preached taxation as if it was a kind of 11^th Commandment.

Eastern Europe has not recovered from that fateful submission, which is made evident by the Balt failure to consider themselves as formerly one people, though autocephaly-self-headedness is their contribution to politics, and remained the political structure of many descendant groups (now identified with the ‘Slavic Church’) which recaptured the river routes from the Vikings as they drove them north whence they had come.

Today the studied disinterest of Baltic govRmnts in their past, makes these former Balts or Children of Johns into adherents of histoire la longue durée in their subconscious, while consciously they tend toward fascism a la the neo-capitalism of western Europe for which Slavic (?Balts turned into slaves?) Russia remains the ‘evil’ Empire par excellence.

* The Latvian govRmnt of the past 25 yrs has done nothing to investigate the origin of [roto-Latvians, their predecessors, but regurgitates history written a century ago.

Jacques Lacan and Fearmongering in Latvia

Having stated in the previous blog that continuation of the Industrial Age is a non-starter not only for the undeveloped world, but also for all who developed in tandem with its rise to power (to the point where even after its zenith is obviously in the past tense), its advertising industry continues to fool most of the people of the world by projecting visions of travel in space.

With only 1 billion people in 1804 and today over 7 billion, of which more than a half live in poverty and most in absolute ignorance, how else could it be? Though Virgin Airlines’s Galactic spaceship crash signaled the proverbial synchronicity event, Sir Richard Branston, one of the moneyed elites among the 7 billion, promises to continue to be a savant of questionable intelligence and announces that he will construct another model. What a devotee of the gang of Positivist religious!

This brings me to the periphery of hegemony of the Industrial Age, the small country of Latvia, one of Western Europe’s easternmost borderlands, and arguably a country of political leaders=savants of questionable integrity. Before the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Latvia was believed by many Soviet people to be among its most progressive Soviets.

Latvia was renewed as an ‘independent’ country (whatever that means) in 1990  and is now in its 24^th  year as an allegedly independent, but not sovereign nation of ‘residents’ as the link notes. The main cause of its renewed state is the United States of America in military alliance with Western European countries through the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). While at the time of renewal, Latvia became a state within the community of Western nations, it was understood (at least by some of the Russian leaders) that NATO would not press its borders closer the Russia, but leave Latvia remain a state that separates Russia from the EU, in effect a sort of Switzerland.

This was not to be however, and NATO has used the ‘resident’ status of Latvia’s residents and pressed ever closer to the borders of Russia in a maneuver known as expanding ‘encirclement’. Having created an international crisis between western nations and Russia by way of the Ukraine and a series of encircling movements, the U.S. , NATO tanks and boots are today in Latvia. While many of the Latvian people do not support the maneuver by their government, the Latvian government throughout said 23 years has waged what Paul Virilio calls ‘endo-colonization’ of Latvias civil society, using fear mongering (see min.: 22-25, 47-48, 53-55) to justify a later occupation of Latvia by armed NATO troops and raise the money (2% of GNP in a destitute country) to pay for the occupation and hardware. Fittingly, the name of the Latvian Defense Minister is Vējonis, re: Windy John.

One example of media manipulation in Latvia’s region of Latgale from a recent newspaper article [Diena (Day) 11.11.2014], is a busy body local official who claims without presenting evidence that Russian agitators near Latvia’s Russian border are distributing literature and rumours. Whereas another official states (my translation):

“….In turn in Zilupe the vice-chairman of local government Vitalys Valdens (Party of Cooperation) komments on the security issue in expressive terms: ‘Why such disinformation about our precinct? All youths here speak perfect Latvian, and among us are great Latvian patriots. Most people here are preoccupied with making ends meet; no one has time to sign foolish (petitions)’….

”….The Security Police makes no comments about its operations in Latgale, but invite the inhabitants to speak up about activities, which are meant to compromise Latvia’s territorial integrity or constitutional government.”

In effect, the Latvians, once said to be the rulers of their country have not become identified with the ‘object petit a’ of Lacan , i.e., the Latvian government  is in effect using Lacanian methods against the Latvian people to become their “unattainable object” by means of confusing the state with its fearmongering leadership, which keeps fleeing from Latvia as a sovereign state to the empty airs of the EU located in Brussels. Re: “In the psychoanalytic theory of Jacques Lacan, objet petit a ("object little-a") stands for the unattainable object of desire. It is sometimes called the object cause of desire. Lacan always insisted that the term should remain untranslated, "thus acquiring the status of an algebraic sign" (Écrits)..

Smartass John and Crazy Jane

Scene 1: (Children of the Witch and God’s Own Devil)

Translated by © Eso A.B.

Synopsis: Smartass John announces to his six brothers that the time has come to join the annual ritual of ‘community reconstitution’ at the Old Witch’s Inn. The preparations are elaborate and begin with the raising of horses and the journey to the ritual site. Because the communal ties have already loosened, the six brothers of Smartass John leave him behind and, driven by erections caused by naked nature, ride off by themselves. Smartass John rides last, nevertheless, dreaming of the pleasures he is likely to enjoy when meeting Crazy Jane.
The Poet:

Once upon a time there lived

Smartass John. Smartass John

was so smart

that soon after he was born

he already knew to tell

his six elder brothers

not to marry before he was grown.

 

Because this telling seemed

unusual and possibly smart,

the brothers of Smartass John,

--all slow thinkers—

agreed to wait for him.

 

Many years passed.

At least twenty.

When time was done

Smartass John knew

that he was possessed

by a being of an ancient Balt,

whose name was God’s Own Devil.

 

One day God’s Own Devil,

who resided within Smartass John,

spoke to Smartass John thusly:

“Listen, Smartass,

I feel an erection coming on.

I believe the time has come

to go looking for brides for ourselves.”

 

Smartass John then went

to speak to his six brothers.

 

Smartass John:
“Brothers, day after tomorrow,

comes Midsummer’s Eve.

All Johns, whether Smartass or not,

will celebrate it.

God’s Own Devils

will be getting together with

the Witch’s seven daughters.

It has come to my ears

That there will be a brau-ha-ha

at the Witch’s Inn.

The “Lesser Johns”, a band of pagans

will play crazy waltzes.

Let us go and take the Witch’s daughters

and whittle them

until they become our brides.”.

 

Chorus (left):

In Latvian a witch is called

Ra-Zhanna.

Ra-Zhanna is called in English

Sun’s Crazy Jane.

 

Chorus (right and left):

Yes, yes! The Old Witch is,

innkeeper, mother, and Madam.

As the Irish poet* said

(so says also the Witch):
"For nothing can be sole or whole
that has not been rent."
The time of the whole is ripe for rending.

All Six Brothers:

“That’s very nice!

But we have no horses to get there.

How are we to come by the horses?”

 

Smartass John:

Do not worry, brothers.

That is no problem.

It’s nothing special!

Go catch me seven crickets.

I will fix the rest.

 

Chorus:

Smartass’ brothers left to catch crickets.

 

Chorus (left):

Because the brothers

lived not far from Jerusalem

which is by the sea,

they caught the crickets in the sand dunes.

They then put the crickets

into a sack and brought them,

and put at Smartass John’s feet.

 

Chorus (right):

Smartass John invited his brothers

to come with him to the beach.

 

The Poet:

When all seven brothers had come

to the Sea of Livonia,

Smartass John opened the sack

And shook all crickets into the sand

Just as the smallest of waves

came washing over them.

 

The crickets tried to escape

and jumped high,

but fell back into the sea

where shallow waves washed over them again.

When the crickets had stopped jumping,

Smartass John washed them clean

Of all sand.

 

All six brothers of Smartass John

stood with their mouths wide open.

“What a Smartass,” they spoke among themselves.

Their mouths opened even wider,

when the crickets

encased in a financial bubble

jumped up once more

and turned into seven horses.

 

The six brothers did not waste any time.

They picked their horses and rode off.

They left Smartass brother John

a mare called Rose.

The mare was the same,

which in days past had carried

God’s Own Devil John Don Quixote

Against many windmills.

 

The mare, also known as Rosinante,

seemed a little tired,

but when tested,

was sprightly.

 

Still, by the time Smartass John

was ready to ride,

His six brothers were already

halfway to Ra-Zhanna’s Inn.

Smartass John did not mind

the hurry of his brothers.

Even though God’s own Devil in his pants

Begged to rest on Crazy Jane’s thighs.

A SELFIE

The tree behind me is a wild apple tree. A metre above ground its streight trunk is 61 cm wide. I guess it grew in this same place in 1729, when my forebears, the Herrnhuters (now the Moravian Church) from Dresden moved to Latvia and discovered and created the Latvian people as a brotherly (friends) congregation. Currently the tree is suffering from gross neglect, its lower branches, due to their great age and weight, have been torn from the trunk by storms and winter snows.
 

The following post from a few years back. It tells of my continuous interest in the altered history of the world. Altering histsory is not only something that is ‘performed’ by the West and world secular powers, but is also the way of the current government of Latvia, which for 24 years (since the renewal of ‘independence’ in 1990) has done its best to ignore the history of the region, which in fact has more in common with Catalonia and Occitania http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occitania  than Latvia of the 20^th or 21^st centuries. I maintain that the long eliminated Cathars (Kheceri in Latvian) had established a branch in Livonia of the 12th century. This branch was destroyed by a Crusade led by Catholic bishop Albert from Bremen along with Albigensian Crusade in 1209. Not surprisingly the repression of religion and history in Latvia continues under the catholic theology obsessed Lutheran Church of Latvia. I will devote the next blog to the GREAT REPRESSION of religion by secular governments and their pseudo religious allies that followed the ‘peace’ treaty of Westphalia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peace_of_Westphalia . Incidentally, the reason why Russians began to make pilgrimages to Jerusalem in 1829 is because Napoleon had by that time changed the name of Byzantium to Jerusalem, and removed the city from the the Straight of Bosphorus to Palestine.

Opinion

The following are posts to Truthdig sent in the last few days.

Philip Stephens, Financial Times, January 8 2009: Israel will never turn armed might into strategic security. If need be, it could win a war against all its enemies combined. But if it wants peace it must face the decision it has avoided for 40 years: withdrawal from the occupied Palestinian territories. Military victories and land grabs are futile. Security will come only with political resolution. ...................................
Stephens fully reflects my opinion. I would only add that Jerusalem, too, must be shared with the Palestinians. However, there stands a huge obstacle in the way of compelling Israel to give in to world opinion. 1) That world opinion is all emotion; 2) both it and its leaders do not know the history of how their world came about.
As most of the posts at this site illustrate, Americans are woefully uninformed about the history of the world. Even if most posters here do not agree with my taking Anatoly Fomenko’s view, one cannot get away with Biblical myth as history. As long as the ladies and gentlemen at this site believe that Biblical myths reflects the history of Israel, they are on the side of Israel.
Yes, I know, the Arabs, and Christian Orthodox, and others have bought into the ecclesiastical chronology of history as set in place by the Catholic Church in the 16th century. All the same, it is impossible for there to be peace until the unstated policies of the West--i.e., to control the economical and political future of our planet--are shown up to be anything but raw power play. That is what the myths support, and therewith MF us.

ALL our foreign politics are geared toward control of the Earth by the West. That is why so few speak up for Gaza or the Palestinians: they fear demolishing a false myth. …………………………………………………………………..
Why are we so indifferent to the death and destruction in Gaza?--The headline question by Robert Sheer.
..............................
Who here addresses the question? I have tried to argue that the answer is to be sought in a false history that is threatened to be revealed if the "real" answer were to be sought. The answer has obviously to do with digging up the real history of the West. That real history involves the West changing history and using the false story as a weapon against the East. The answer is as simple and complicated as that.

Israel currently serves the interests of the West. Gaza is the corner where the Palestinians have been driven into, and when their slaughter calls forth desperate measures as we see Hamas take, we call them barbarians.

Of course, the only real weapon the Palestinians have is non-violent direct resistance by way of self-sacrificial acts in public places. Unfortunately, this tactic due to the zeitgeist of violence was not considered and may be too late now to implement. It takes great courage to do and to organize such a thing. But it ought to be tried nevertheless. It might change the East and give it the moral upper hand again.
………………………………………………..

In previous posts, I suggested that the key to Middle East violence must be looked for in the use the West makes of history as a tool of war. That is to say, the West changes history and then imposes its interpretation on the rest of the world. The West does the same with words. For example:

Yaroslaw = Jerusalem;

Yaro in Russian = the spring;
Slawa in Russian = honor
Thus Yaroslav = Jerusalem = Spring of Honor
Those who are curious might want to use their Search buttons and see why in 1829 so many Russians made pilgrimages to the City of Honor and why before this date no one made pilgrimages to Jerusalem http://www.jpost.com/Features/In-Thespotlight/This-Week-in-History-Napoleon-is-repelled-from-Acre .

The following in Latvian.
Cerinju miljons / 10. Nogrimušās Jeruzalemes (2)
© Antons Benjamiņš  (turpinājums)

Redzēdami, ka rūriki (iepriekš varbūt lūdiki), kā vietējie sevi atpazina, netaisijās savus briežus tūlīt kaut, vikingi turpinot sirotāju parašas, pieprasīja no mežu ļaudīm briežu kažokus par nodokli. Nodoklis bija jānodod ekspluatācijā gada laikā, kad tie teicās atkal nākt ciemos. Citādi, ja pieprasītais nebūs, goti sola nolaupīt meža ļaudīm bērnus. Kirgīzu teika atspoguļo šos notikumus. Kad Ragainā Briežumāte stāsta Bakurētainai Klibai Vecenei, ka cilvēki ir nogalinājuši viņas dvīņu briedelēnus, un, ka viņas tesmenis ir pilns piena bērniem, mēs dzirdam lakonisku ziņojumu par vēsturiskiem notikumiem. Enesejas upe ir uz ziemeļaustrumiem no Kirgistanas, uz kurieni katru pavasari kirgīzu priekšteķi dzina savus mareļu briežus ganīties, bet rudenī tos dzina uz mājām, kuras atradās pie Isikkula vai Isik ezera.

Seno nodokļu vārds saucās ‘jasaks’. Tas līdz šai dienai ir sastopams vārdā jaka. Nav neiedomājams, ka līdzskanī ‘K’ atbalsojas svētā ezera vārds. Mana kaimiņiene laukos stāsta, ka viņa atceras savu vecmāti saucam savu aitas ādas vesti par jasaku: „Kur mans jasaks?”

Pienāca laiks, kad vietējie iedzīvotāji saniknojās, sadumpojās, un padzina apspiedējus no Bizantijas-Israēlas-Kazārijas apkaimes. Jodi bēga uz ziemeļrietumu Eiropu, kur tagad atrodas Beniluksa valstis. Ir iespējams, ka ganu ‘apmaldīšanās’ notika tāpēc, ka sagadījās vienlaicīgi ar Storegga krasta nobrukumu pie Norvēģijas, kurš izsauca tsunami, kurš noslīcināja tā saukto Doggerlandi http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doggerland , kas apmēram 6000-8000 gadus secen savienoja Eiropu ar Angliju un Skandināviju.

Šie ‘citi’ brauca sirot uz Melno jūra ne pa Daugavu, Dniepru, Donu, vai Volgu, bet  pa Reinas un Donavas upēm. Esmu redzējis Ķēniņa Ludviga kanālu, kas savieno Reinu un Donavu, Vācijā, Bambergā, kur kā bēglis (atstājot krievu zonu, lai nonāktu t.s. Amerikāņu zonā) uz mēnesi pārnakšņoju kādas skolas telpās.

Atraduši patvērumu brāļu zemēs, goti (pārmainījuši savu cilšu nosaukumu no ‘jodi’ uz patīkamāku vārdu), sapņoja par atgriešanos pie Melnās jūras un drīz plānoja karu. Plāni nebija viegli izpildāmi, jo zemēs, kuras mēs tagad saucam par Bulgāriju, Rumāniju, un Ukrainu nāca ar citādāku garīguma  apziņu). Nodokļu vietā viņi saviem valdniekiem nesa ‘dāvanas’. Mēs šai vārdā redzam „dav, dev” ieskaņas, kas liecina par ‘dāvanu’ saistību ar lūgšanām un ziedojumu nevis nodokļu dienu (tax deadline), bet dievainēm.

Aitmatova stāstā, mēs redzam kaut ko no senās kristietības iz ļaužu vides, re: Ragainās Briežumātes mēģinājuma atrunāt Bakurētaino Klibo Veceni no bērnu upurēšanas mareļu briežu mednieku nodokļu ievākšanai par labu. Līdzīga attieksme redzama iestrādāta baltu valodā, kurā mīkstinātais ‘mīlinātājs’ vārds spēlē īpašu lomu. Baltiem nav Bībele, ne Jaunā Derība, bet ir valoda, kurā kopš senatnes, garīgā ticība ir ieminusi cilvēka vēl neaizkārtās subjektivitātes uzticību Saulei, ka Visuma mātes simbolam. Latviešu priekšteči izmantoja savas valodas īpatnību sacerot tautas dziesmas, kur vienā pantiņā dažkārt sastopami līdz pat pieci mīlinātāji vārdi.

Nodokļi, kā ienākumu avots kļuva gotiem par patstāvīgu ienākumu avotu, un goti no tiem nevarēja atteikties. Bija jāizdomā, ka pārvarēt bizantīniešu lūdu (ļaužu) iebildumus. To varēja panākt tikai, ja izveidoja jaunu ticību, kura pieņēma nodokļu maksāšanu kā ‘normālu’ parādību un spēja aizstāt senās Jeruzalemes un Dievam veltītas, zelta ikoniem greznotas, svētnīcas ar pils torņiem un pazemē ieraktiem ‘tumšo Jāņu’ pagrabiem (dungeon), kur slēpa zeltu un dārgakmeņus. Šai ‘jaunai ticībai’ arī vairs nederēja Jeruzaleme kā visu ‘svēto’ ķēniņu troņpilsēta (tsargrada) koncepts, bet bija nepieciešams nosaukumu pārnest uz tik vienu vien Jeruzalemi*.

Nupar ‘mūžīgā’ Jeruzaleme tiek apliecināta ar Dieva lūgšanām pie pussagruvušas sienas, kuru ‘faktu’ nesen Pops Francis apstiprināja bučojot vecus akmeņus izdomātās Izraēlas iedomātā galvas pilsētā Jeruzalemē. Joku, ko Rietumu kultūra, sāka sev stāstīt līdz Napoleons ieņēma Vidus jūras austrumu krastu un savās militārās kartēs iezīmēja pilsētiņu ‘Jeruzaleme’, kura tur iepriekš bija bijusi tikai fantāzijā*.

Īru dzejnieks Yeats šos melus saprata, jo viņa dzejolis „Sailing to Byzantium” (Būrojot uz Bizantīnu) ir veltīts Bizantijai, ne Jeruzalemei. Citēju: „...Un tāpēc esmu būrojis pāri jūrām un jūrām, lai nonāktu / Pie svētās pilsētas Bizantijas vārtiem....”

EFA: POLITICS AT ‘WOUNDED KNEE’ (7)

I am intrigued by Russia’s suggestion that there ought to be a referendum in Ukraine, and that the Ukraine ought to become a federation of states http://pennyforyourthoughts2.blogspot.com/2014/03/kerrylavrov-to-meet-today-federated.html  subordinate to a central government in Kiev or Moscow. My interest arises, because the suggestion ought to be easily turned around and asked of Russia itself, as it and its many states, too, are composed of many regions with their own history and geopolitical lay.

In the end, the Russian suggestion is not only on behalf of many member nations of the UN, but also for the Federation of Russia itself. It raises a question that may appear to be a paradox: Why propose a Matrushka https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoKodHqRoD9FONUigqUMt-pccXEtIyNPUUGq-qILdGoOB-Z7t7nAdSYUTvTU8ofPITwxsyOQodsOKxXhuzyVUIeOZPY6HLiVUXgRtd0Ar7G4r4HMMSA7zbHXKltqATzL0NZPghBcI7m7g/s1600/EggDoll.jpg  style government for Ukraine, when it is more impressive to lead by example?

By what synechism http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synechism does the  legislature of a Federation, its ruling body composed in the main by the ‘intelligentsia’ of hominids born into a hominid created urban desert, created out of a living planet laid prostrate by chemical and nuclear explosives, declare that an organization such as the UN Security Council http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Security_Council  has the right to define the nature of peace for our planet’s biosphere?

Surely, if peace is constructed on the ability of continuous militarization to deter war (keep pulling the rubber band)—is it not subject to a delayed, but even a greater catastrophe?

The band of wannabe scientologists ensconced in the legislature of the EU, holds that joining and supporting an Empire formed of federalized and somaticized States is the best guaranty for prosperity and peace. Yet, the band has apparently forgotten that though the beginnings of the European Empire are

from “… 1950 [on, when] the European Coal and Steel Community begins to unite European countries economically and politically in order to secure lasting peace[;] …the six founders… Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg and the Netherlands….” http://europa.eu/about-eu/eu-history/index_en.htm refuse to introduce democratic elections in the body politic of the EU that could legitimize its dictatorship.

Unification in Europe was largely achieved not by an economic and political agreement, but on the insistence of the United States of America, which had begun the Cold War on behalf of Capitalism against the Communist Soviet Union that very year.

Before ‘unification’ there was no such thing as a referendum to see if the people of Europe wished to make Europe an Empire. Instead, the EU legislation from that year on has been dominated by exo-parliamentarians, rather than elected officials. Whether elected parliamentarians would be any better than American legislators, most of who are elected, is to be doubted as long as lobying is permitted. The system of exosystemic appointment of the EU Parliament is operative to this day and is doing great service in maintaining a militarist monopolist government in power—including my country, Latvia.

Paul Virilio, an observer and social critic of governments, describes the results nicely*: “…entire countries are progressively becoming sites of social extermination, training zones for … an insiduous form of ‘militaro-police’ coalition comparable to Interpol [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interpol ], an interarmy conspiracy destined to sacrifice the civic and political power of the people, where… [in] place of self-sacrifice for the sake of the Nation, these states sacrifice their own population in the name of a state of generalized passivity….”

While such a function may lead one to believe that the opposition of Tibetans to the repression of the Chinese government is terrorism, I note that no such ready accusation can be made against the behavior of government. For example, in Latvia, the government has got rid of near half of its population (about 900,000) by choosing membership in the EU over sovereignty, but no accusation of a crime against it by the Latvian people can be made . The ways the crime is accomplished are too many to count, but one way that facilitated it was for the Latvian Bank to give credits to private clients in Euros rather than its own currency (the Lats). As a result, at the time of economic crisis, Latvia could not devalue its currency and, thus, lessen the economic impact on its people.

Not that the dangers of federalization are a secret. Many states that have been federalized into a centralized government in Europe are members of the European Free Alliance (EFA)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Free_Alliance . Unfortunately, the EFA, too, manifests a case of ‘generalized passivity’, notably by remaining silent on the issue of referendums by not taking advantage of such cases as Latvia and Russia offer by calling for criminalization of attempts to form a centralized (and fascist) globalized government.

UKRAINE'S POTENTIALLY RADICAL 'REACTION' TO EAST AND WEST; P.S.

 

The present Ukrainian leadership has allowed political wool to be pulled over its eyes. Presently Ukraine is going up in flames, as various leaders hem and haw as to what to do. A full blown civil war or even a WW is not out of the question. Such could break out in the nearest future as the West attempts to grasp in its embrace Kiev, the capital of Russia many years ago http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/317542/Kiev/13910/The-first-Rus-capital and deprive Russia of its naval bases in Crimea.

The Western media, playing the role a priesthood that affirms government policy through the sacrament of agreeable repetition, has managed to pollute the sphere of information like the plastic scum that drifts with ocean currents. No intelligence may be had by reading so-called ‘official media’, such as the New York Times, The Washington Post, or listening to television channels such as CNN or BBC. One can only express joy when reading that the public is abandoning these for the Internet, where one can read a wide variety of opinions both pro and con and a lot more diversified and no less authoritative.

In an earlier blog of this series, “The ‘Knellen’ of EU Nations” (blogs 275-288), and subsequent “A Civilization of Persecution” (blogs 288-297), I suggest that Ukraine be partitioned into East and West Ukraine and recommend that the form of government of the West Ukraine not be a democracy, but a form monarchy with its authority and leadership deriving from ‘47 Ronin’, the latter gaining their inspiration from the behavior of 47 Japanese samurai. The 47 samurai, when deprived of the head of their Estate, all agreed to commit seppuku, aka hara kiri. Such commitment and loyalty has been long lost to the West, which is not to say that it not in need of it.

As I explain in an  earlier series of blogs “The King and I” (blogs 264-274), the ‘democratic’ order of government, engineered by various political parties holds no charisma for the public. The reason for the rupture of government and the public is that the government has accrued to itself all law-making, and all laws decree that it is the public that must sacrifice life in the event the government decrees war.

In the above mentioned series, I suggest that one of the solutions to the problems of governing Ukraine, is to partition Western Ukraine (whence most of the ‘freedom’ seekers) from Eastern Ukraine. As I see it, the border of the partition begin at Chernobyl and moves south along the eastern borders of the states of Zhytomyrs’ka and Vinnyts'ka (or even further west), while its capital is moved in the city of Ternopil’ (state of Ternopil’s’ka), dividing the Ukraine in roughly 1/3^rd West, 2/3^rds East http://images.nationmaster.com/images/motw/europe/ukraine_adm93.jpg.

While I realize that the separatists from Western Ukraine may not be happy with getting the lesser half of the Ukraine, they are getting it sans an all out civil war and a huge cost of lives to themselves, not to mention the world seeing its electric wiring burned out by a few electromagnetic nuclear bursts.

By joining the EU and NATO, and, therefore, putting their sovereignty at risk (as all other East European, post-Soviet States have done), Western Ukraine may yet strike a ‘knell’ for freedom as their negotiators stipulate that they will join the EU only as a monarchy of ‘47’ (see above). By such a stipulation, they not only will create a potentially new form of government for the world's sovereign nations, but guarantee sovereignty for themselves.

To those who argue that this means that the ‘new’ Ukraine becomes a fascist state, the answer is: ‘You asked for it!’ Clearly, the ‘democracy’ being peddled to the world by the U.S. is a democracy not for the People or of the People, but a ‘democracy’ for the ‘new’ Princes, the Oligarchs of our time. I speak from experience.

While the East European country of my experience is Latvia, I invite anyone to come to any of the post-Soviet East European States and see for themselves what U.S. Capitalism with Harvard School of Business leading it has accomplished here. It is no mere hearsay that single mothers of said area are being forced to go to the capitals of their own and foreign countries to earn a living for their children as whores, hopefully in such ‘paradisial’ job creating centres as Paradise in Stutgart or Pascha, Cologne https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pg44aEyqonQ .

As for those who claim that fascism is inherent within monarchies, I suggest that by exercising democratic not-violent terror (the awe of self-sacrifice) to suppress latent aggression arising from nationalist midst (we ought to remember that while Germany lost WW2, it never gave up on fascist ideology), such danger would no longer be real. If we had a “free press”, we would have learned long ago that it is capitalist ‘democracy’ that introduced fascism in the first place.
