Frustration With Uno Cards

The re-education of Europeans

by Dr. Bruno Bandulet

zf. In his latest book, "The last years of the euro," Bruno Bandulet sets not only an explanation why the euro has no future. He also looks into the question of the ideological and political reasons to make a failed policy of EU Europe from the beginning: an ideology and a power structure that does not conform to European traditions. The following excerpt from the 6th Chapter of the book is a chapter with the heading forward, "The power structure of the European Union." There Bandulet refers to a newspaper article of the former judge at the German Federal Constitutional Court and German Federal President Roman Herzog in 2008, in which the decisions the European Court of Justice (ECJ), including the so-called non-discrimination, sharply criticized and summarizing put it: "The cases described show that the ECJ deliberately central principles of Western judicial interpretation and systematically ignored, decisions based unclean, the will to go the legislature or even turned into its opposite, and invents legal principles, which he can lay back on later decisions based. They show that the ECJ undermines the competences of the Member States themselves in the core areas of national jurisdiction. "This ties in with the following text.

was significant that two of the Duke of examples of EU non-discrimination came into play. The 2009 came into force the Treaty of Lisbon was known initially as the EU Constitution. Articles 2 and 3, you can still take in the strange values of the EU elites insight.
is different than in the basic law of God no mention. Instead, a cultural revolutionary alternative to religion constructed and hung on undefined phrases like pluralism, non-discrimination, tolerance and solidarity.
The EU committed itself in Article 3 to "eradicate poverty" not only in Europe but around the world (to go like that?), And "combat social exclusion and discrimination." Expressly counts them at their values, the "equality between women and men," not just equal rights.
addition to the "Treaty on European Union" (TEU), there exists a "Treaty on the Functioning of the EU" (Treaty). In this illusion of equality and the desire to re-educate Europeans to macro-and gender-neutral people to visit even more enjoyable. According to Article 8, the Union "in all its activities" out inequalities "eliminate" - as if this represented not the charm of Europe and the spice of life. In two articles (10 and 19) to "discrimination" (again and again that keyword!) discrimination on the grounds of "sexual orientation". The EU eliminated the distinction between law and morality, it breaks with the cultural heritage of Europe, it is the way to a new totalitarianism.
behind the Treaty of Lisbon, a kind of European Constitution, one may suspect a hidden agenda, or - that would be the more benign interpretation - it is seen as a mere absurdity.
the Lisbon Treaty explained as Hans Magnus Enzensberger at a ceremony in Copenhagen on 2 February 2010 is likely, in addition to the experts who have it worked out, have not studied each European citizen. "This has a very simple reason," continued Enzensberger, "it resembles namely, a wire entanglement. I suspect that this is in keeping with its authors. "
The general lack of interest is unfortunate, because transparency is a proven means of domination. We should already know to what legal principles, we are governed. After all, has long taken in Brussels and a European arrest warrant, the extradition of a citizen to a foreign State, for example because of unpopular opinions expressed even allows if the crime in his own country in general is not punishable.
is worth reading also Article 66 of the FEU Treaty, under which the "Council", ie the competent Ministers, on a proposal from the Commission after "consultation" , the ECB "certain protection measures" against "capital movements" to or from third countries impose. This makes it possible to stop in the event of a severe currency crisis, the freedom of capital movements, as well as transfers to Switzerland. Then, the citizens and investors to inmates of the EU zone. Such protective measures may be imposed for a maximum period of six months, a small consolation. You would then just be extended for another six months.
The EU is not the Europe that we wanted. The fact that this would be no alternatives, is a lie, and almost a prohibition on thinking.
"that 40 000 officials, including their propagandists should decide who is and who is not a good European, "is a rather abstruse idea Enzensberger said in his speech in Copenhagen. Since the 40 000
build no roads, maintain schools, neither the external nor internal security concerns and produce nothing, they must be redeployed. They distribute money and emit an unprecedented flood of orders, regulations and directives that are stacked up to at least 150 now 000 pages. "No way they expect," said Enzensberger, "that we ourselves know what is good for us, this we are in her eyes too helpless and immature. Therefore, we must are cared for and thoroughly re-educated. "
Because everything is under the primacy of equality, harmonization, centralized and redistributed. That the freedom in Europe to choose between different currencies, not fit into the concept makes sense. Ad personam is the commissioners and officials in Brussels done anything wrong. What they do is by the political class in the main cities wanted and tolerated. •

Calories On Chapstick Bottle

good faith

"Every person is entitled to it by the state organs without arbitrariness and in good and faith to be treated "

of Dr. iur. Marianne Wüthrich, Zurich

In the last issue of "Current Concerns" (No. 36/2010) were asked the Federal Council candidates about their attitudes than the Swiss and their position as a politician. All four respondents (Johann Schneider-Ammann and Karin Keller-Sutter, FDP, Brigit Wyss, GP, and Jean-François Rime, SVP) known to the Swiss model, an independent, sovereign, directly democratic and federalist Switzerland, all featured four are behind the principle of neutrality, combined with the humanitarian commitment of Switzerland as the depositary of the Geneva Conventions and to the tradition of good offices, all four were in favor of food sovereignty and security. That the two SP candidates, the issues of "Current Concerns" could not or would not answer, leaves many questions.
can the same be expected from all authorities of the future federal councils: that they fulfill the task entrusted to them by the sovereign, in the serious and honest efforts to preserve the unique Swiss model, in constant and open interaction with the population, in know that the foundation of direct democracy in the deeply felt need and the will of the citizens is to make its active contribution to the community - for their community, for their District, for their country and for the other people around the world.

"Democracy is ultimately not a matter of form of government, but a matter of public sentiment." Thus, the Swiss historian Adolf Gasser wrote in 1947 ("community of freedom as a rescue of Europe", p. 10). Today, more than 60 years later, most of them Swiss, the Democratic People's sentiments still carry in my heart, but threatened it is from the outside: the direct-democratic, federal, neutral and small-scale organized Switzerland, the centralist and undemocratic EU bureaucracy in Brussels, a thorn in the side . For years, European politicians try, the small, to crack but weighty nuisance in the internal market of large companies. They are not afraid to harness and Swiss politicians for their purposes, some of which unfortunately go along with the bad game, either for personal lust for power, either from lack of conflict and lack of knowledge.
It is time to take so many of our politicians and government members to account and to remind them of the principles of law, they observed during the performance of their oath of office have vowed. For the free will of the citizens and the independent democratic decision based on it requires in the referendums that the people on the Compliance with the law and rely on the honesty of the authorities can.

The rule of law
"core concept of law is the reduction of state power in favor of individual freedom." 1 The basis of law is the principle of legality, which means the elimination of all state organs to the right. A corollary of the principle of legality, the principle of separation of powers. Purpose of law is "the protection of human dignity and individual freedom," accordingly, will the rule of law on individuals' protect against abuse and arbitrary action of state authorities. " The principle of legality
includes, for example, that the municipal council (the executive) may delegate his powers in the Municipal Code regulated neither an organizational development office nor a so-called "control group", but exercise its statutory duties and must account for himself.
The principle of separation of powers, so the division of state power in legislative, executive and judicial branches, must be monitored very carefully today by the citizens. Supreme power in a democracy is the legislature, in a direct democracy so the people of Switzerland, the sovereign. Under the influence of foreign governments, some whisperers tear on all three levels of government, however, bypassing the people - and sometimes the parliaments - more and more power for himself by they create outside of the legally established organization of the state institutions to new EU model, such as the Conference of Cantonal Governments, metropolitan clubs and regional conferences and, more recently Metropolitan conferences. The Swiss political landscape is flooded with such a strange understanding of our state structures which include partially and institutions outside the national borders and seemingly harmless as private clubs come along with no decision making powers. Our government and local councils and many government officials who were elected by us to fulfill their constitutional duties sitting instead in such clubs, together with professional with our tax dollars paid " Experts "and finally put - if we're lucky! - The parliaments and the electorate, the results of their years of "experts work" before the nod by. Frequently, however, is not voted on because it is supposedly not a "decision" to go, but only of a "informal discussion". None of this strange entity was constituted by the people, not the executive or politician - elected officials for such actions.

The principle of law "good faith"
"proves to be particularly consequential that the public many lies of our \u0026lt;Eliten> have destroyed more and more confidence and the classical principle of law of \u0026lt;Treu and Glauben>, the coexistence and cooperation is based on the premise that people act decently, called into question. is "(Dr. Thomas Huber Current Concerns No 36/2010).
For the rule of law all authorities by the Constitution to the protection of good faith required. In the Swiss Federal Constitution of 1999, this legal principle is stated explicitly, before he was implicitly

Federal Constitution BV Article 9:
protection against arbitrary and preservation of good faith
Each person is entitled to it by the state organs without arbitrariness and in good treated faith.

According to constitutional law doctrine protects BV Art 9, the confidence of private information and assurances in the authorities, including Article 9 prohibits inconsistent behavior of the authorities. A right of action, citizens, who have taken on false information irrevocable dispositions (see lecture notes Prof. W. Kälin, spring semester 2010). It is obvious that false representations and information from the authorities to influence before a national referendum for the purpose, the voting behavior of voters, as a clear breach of good faith must be assessed - whether the false information are now made in bad faith or not. But also distributed over a longer time constant repetition of untrue statements ("Laying a carpet Information") is contrary to Article 9 of the Federal Constitution.

Non-material damage directly democratic model for Switzerland
But the damage reached a much larger extent than the fact that the individual citizen would have cast his vote otherwise, he would have been properly informed. Substantive fears must be a whole number of referendums in recent years that the voting result would be different if the executive had properly informed. This would also apply only to a single vote, it would be bad enough. Far more serious, however, the moral prejudice caused to the direct democracy, as a such and for the moral and ethical status of the citizens. This is how Adolf Gasser as an essential characteristic of a healthy democracy, that they have a "altangestammtes and extremely vigorous self-management of their local and regional sub-associations" has, Gasser calls this the "ethical dimension of democracy" (see Current Concerns No 45/2006) . It is a peculiarity of the model of direct democracy that citizens feel responsible for their community and gain their active participation and living as well as their emotional quality of life. Therefore, it needs each of us, with all his might and with all constructive citizens and citizen groups put together for the preservation of the Swiss model einzu-
.

breach of good faith: relationship between Switzerland and the EU already
A classic example is the conflicting statements and the non-transparent behavior of the Federal Council concerning the relationship between Switzerland and the EU. On 19 August 2010 was President Doris Leuthard before the media and said after years of maneuvering by the Federal Council, this had come to the conclusion that the bilateral approach continues to be best suited for Switzerland. At the same time, the Federal stubbornly refuses to withdraw its deposited since 1992 in Brussels for EU membership, and everyone knows that all departments of the federal busy with nothing are to transpose EU law as continuous in Swiss law, on their own initiative and without external necessity. Also, the Federal Council has continued to take its various "European policy options", be it a framework agreement for the automatic adoption of EU legislation, this is the EEA or the EU accession of Switzerland. We ask the Federal Council and in particular of the two newly elected candidates that they push such a trust detrimental conduct a stop and now its constitutional obligation to protect the independence of Switzerland (Article 185 paragraph 1 BV) as well as to the repeatedly expressed people will keep clear: No to EEA and EU membership.

violated Federal neutrality
A second, equally serious breach of legitimate expectations is the flippant use of the principle of perpetual armed neutrality, Switzerland has taken over 200 years of great blessing. At the same time violates the Federal Council for many years his constitutional duty:

BV Article 185 paragraph 1: The Federal
take measures to safeguard the external security, independence and neutrality of Switzerland.

It would queue the Federal well, according to the still valid recommendation of Brother Klaus "the fence, not to put too much" and to the modest but urgent necessary role of neutral Switzerland reclaim small state as guardian of the Geneva Conventions and provider of humanitarian assistance and good offices. Instead, the Federal injured except for years against the firm will of an overwhelming majority of the people, the neutrality requirement and claims against their better knowledge of Swiss neutrality expression of the full NATO membership have room for everything, so to speak.
The list of anti-neutrality acts and false information of citizens is long: for example, the Federal Council concluded behind the back of the sovereign, the Partnership for Peace Agreement (PfP) with NATO, he has our army from the constitutional militia-Defense Forces converted into a NATO-compatible by force of servants and professional soldiers, he has the legal establishment of foreign missions nearly brought by a popular vote, as he was facing the people, it related to peace operations. Further, the Federal falsely claims himself a seat in Switzerland in the UN Security Council, a power tool par excellence were not, contrary to neutrality. Yes, not even the EU accession of Switzerland would be repeated, but no less false statement of the Federal Council in breach of the neutrality, although anyone can read in the newspaper that the EU, with its ESDP (European Security and Defence Policy) at various places in the world waging war. In this war, the Federal Alliance wanted to embed a year ago, the Swiss army even to participation in the so-called fight against pirates in the Gulf of Somalia ("Atalanta"), which was fortunately rejected by the National Council.
The Federal Council is to finally pursue a policy of neutrality, worthy of the name.

return to the ethical values of the Swiss model
for the implementation of what the Federal candidates have assured in an interview with Time-related issues, namely to work for the preservation of the sovereign, independent, just, democratic, federal and neutral Switzerland, we wish them the confidence and power.
At the conclusion was to a large Federal reminded the executive branch should take today as an example:
"The confrontation of our country with the process of European integration has forced our people to deal in turn take more of a higher order values. The result of this self-reflection is an enjoyable one. Widest circles of our people have once again clearly the value of our political institutions, federalism and direct democracy recognized. They feel instinctively how much the conservation of these institutions by the consistent continuation of our policy of neutrality is dependent. "(Federal Friedrich Traugott Wahlen, 1963, to the National Council) •

Why Did Indians Where A Wolf Tooth

ethics and morality in the globalized world

There is no freedom without ethics and morality

fellow human beings by Dr. Thomas Huber *

I begin with two quotations: one from Benjamin Franklin who said, give up, "Who the freedom to gain security will end up losing both, "and with a second statement of Baron Wilhelm von Humboldt:" Security is a precondition for freedom, "
the beginning of my remarks, I would like to define security and freedom short.
to First Security: An individual is safe if it is in a state without Danger to life, limb and property is located, if the rule of law and democratic institutions are functioning reliably and consistently and you at all times, independent and has committed to the truth of information.
When I explained to me the issue was, I did not omit to consult the PC in order by "googling" extract something useful! The exercise was of short duration: More than thousand entries dealt with the issue of security - it seems one of the enduring problems of modern man to be to obtain "security" in all circumstances and at any price, even if lost by other values !
For freedom: According to Kant, human dignity, the autonomy of his will, his freedom. This freedom is the foundation of all mankind's constitution and the democratic and constitutional principle. The outer freedom is the independence of any other necessary final arbitrariness of the constraint. Inner freedom is grounded in the morality which can not be achieved without morals.

loss of proportionality
It was also clear to me that has been lost in all of our lives, the proportionality. If Mr Ospel as the top banker at UBS earned more than 800 times the cleaning lady - noted in one way on the first day when they was not there, while the Board is extremely unlikely - that's a sign that the middle way has been lost. It lacks the gray tones. In many areas there is only black or white, in political polarization in the left and right - there is no fruitful dialogue, but only one for or against. The responsibility of special interests in every form to prevent a progressive development of our society.
The loss of balance, the arbitrariness, the short-term profit, greed and crawl out from any responsibility are essential characteristics of our contemporary situation. That particularly our elites of all Couleur profile in this reprehensible attitude speaks volumes.
Allow me some brief reflections in the light of the statement in the 2nd Moses, Exodus 24: "An eye for eye, tooth for a tooth" - a statement that the issues identified in basically the balance, proportionality, we should also keep in dealing with our adversaries. live is only the beginning of a mandatory law on Mount Sinai by Moses gave the people the security, freedom to be able to.
I refer to in these observations of my own experiences and things that have happened in the last couple of years before the eyes of the world.
During my assignment as an ICRC delegate in Lebanon at the beginning of the 70 years I was responsible for a refugee camp of about 10 000 refugees, mainly Palestinians. The people who stole from the camp and the local police made problems. The reason was the hunger and the loss of home and freedom - in neighboring Germany after the war there was a saying: "pilfering is permitted." The reactions of the Israelis were disproportionate in every respect. To obtain more security for themselves, they limited the freedom of inmates solid, a part of international law. There were also other restrictions, such as reduced water, food and medicines. This was the cycle of violence opened: It was followed by bomb attacks by the Palestinians and in turn the flash back 10 times the Israeli army. Today we have in Gaza, a security wall and a barrier to the Berlin Wall at the inferior border of the GDR in nothing and have been installed with the largest prison on the planet. The price of the security on the one hand, the total loss of freedom on the other side.
The eleventh of September is - regardless of how you judge him, whether carried out by Americans themselves as to the legitimacy of preventive war or assassination of al-Qaeda - is perhaps the most glaring example of what people are willing to invest when it comes to alleged safety of it: namely, the death of hundreds of thousands of innocent people. Especially dramatic is when God is being exploited in the name of a crusade against evil for a crime against humanity. The use of uranium munitions on a large scale and thus the acceptance of tens of thousands of genetically damaged children is another feature of this incredible loss of proportionality. The organization
Switzerland Afghanistan, which I presided as president and wanted to achieve with donations and money from the SDC, the Department for Development and Cooperation of the Federal, agricultural projects in Afghanistan had, including the project for safety Cancel: Locally, the schools, especially girls, destroyed by Taliban and shot the teacher, and trust people turned out to be CIA agents. This was an impossible freedom to be realized in agriculture project for peace.
In the following - not entitled to the scheme and by no means considered to be complete - a few points of gone awry balance in the light of freedom and security are mentioned:
First, the security report of the covenant would have the question read: How much security does the people to be able to continue to develop in peace and freedom? Is it alone acceptable? Is there a middle way? Or do we need a connection to an alliance within the EU, NATO or the UN? Should Switzerland actually - as the GSoA, the company wants to Switzerland without an army, - be demilitarized? Can they still credibly claim to be neutral, then if NATO must ensure the safety? Should Switzerland is actually a "free-riding" at the expense of seeking alliances to which they want to belong not political?
The policy has become more difficult to calculate because there has been a polarization between left and right and the center is struggling to strike a balance. The predictability has come under the wheels.
The company, which marked a strong SME sector could rely, who was responsible for the security, is under increasing pressure because of the expense of middle class political economy to bear.
was moreover pointed Luther in his work on the Freedom of a Christian that security is a fundamental prerequisite for faith in the confidence in the truth!
And today's penal system is an exemplary example of the lack of proportionality: Where to start, where does the basic rights of a prisoner, and where the safety of the population has a higher priority?
The list would continue as required. But what is the reason that we are practically in all spheres of life disciplines and the measure of things have lost?

lack of morality is
The theory that human development by a lack "of love and truth", is hampered by a lack of morality. And indeed, many of today's evils have something to do with a lack of consistent ethical penetration of our own feelings, thoughts and actions. This is not so keen to ensure that ethical principles are missing, but probably more so because these bases are too little attention - which raises some questions as: Why
these bases are not observed?
Why is the observance of these principles called for too little?
What is needed so that these principles are not only written but also in a mass attention that they shape our life together? Only
alone to answer these three questions is a human task. But this task must be addressed urgently. Because humanity sees itself more and more confronted with the fact that only prosecuted criminally to be named sentiments and actions not only in the state to find the criminal milieu and are usually the exception, but that very influential part of our "elites" in politics, economics and finance, military, media and culture, to - as the church father Augustine would say - have degenerated into "bandits" justice with which the feet occur without being prosecuted by the state.
The measureless waste of taxpayers' money in the EU, whose Günstlingskultur the opinion manipulation, the totally non-transparent business processes and the absolutely undemocratic decision-making - are examples of this abound read in the book, "The European case" by Hans-Peter Martin - or the questionable commitment to the NATO in Afghanistan - these are all aspects of contemporary events, which take the safety of the citizens to live in a democratic state in freedom!
proves to be particularly far turned out that the many public lies of our "elites" ever more Confidence and have destroyed the traditional legal principle of "good faith" the coexistence and cooperation is based on the premise that people act decently and honestly, is called into question.
But all the variants of "Trust is good, control is better" up to "the virtue terrorism" are no prospects, and they also no convincing alternatives to the once destroyed confidence dar. A turning point to better cope with an inner safety orientation to a fellow human beings ethics.

fellow human beings ethics
What conditions should ensure a shift?
A classical education is more necessary than ever, because the question can not read Goethe or Googling? Who will explain to the students our future, the world? While it is obvious that the school is to teach practical skills: reading, writing, arithmetic, Googling (a new verb that will prevail), the use of PC and Internet. But the decisive factor is that the school has to teach ideals and contexts that precede all practical individual benefits. In particular, the culture is to recognize as a tissue in which it all fits together. Motifs of Greek mythology or the Bible as we encounter in literature, opera, theater, museum, but also in thousands of everyday things. To him that she deciphered, reveals the world as complex readable book. And with that he experienced a joy of recognition that goes beyond any material benefit.
What do we need? Our time is marked by pendulum between expectation and disappointment, always from one extreme to another. The great hopes that we make our burst, on the sharp edges of reality.

good faith must re-apply
The writer and pioneer of journalism, Matthias Claudius, so rather: have something solid, the man. The flights of his goals in life you can not build on sand.
We need people to which one can rely on. That can not promise when they promise something. Prophet who preach against the tide of time. People with foresight, perspectives and life goals. People can trust. No fear and alarmist, but encouragement. Not pessimistic, but hope. Probably we need more leadership in all areas again as management.
The resurgent belief in creation is not a comprehensive prevention suffering insurance, no vaccination against poverty and worries of everyday life. And yet it releases forces, with the suffering to be done before it overwhelms us and we break the theodicy.
God is not a guarantee of morality nor religion is a supplier of a world view. Rather, morality and belief is a matter of rationality of man, and thus a proof of his adulthood.
One should we bear in mind: the happiness we all seek is anything for granted. If luck does not come true, people feel cheated and are looking for a scapegoat.
The French sociologist Pascal Bruckner commented in the newspaper "Le Temps" by analogy as follows: our societies have been living in the era of the sixties "pursuit of happiness." This happiness is considered an acquired right at birth. If it does not come true, people feel cheated and are therefore looking for a scapegoat. The risks of life are in fact, incompatible with the happiness. So when the emergency occurs, someone inevitably thwarted the happiness or provoked the accident. The suffering, death, the risks of life are unacceptable. Victims are given a sacred character. Because of this victimization, a new social contract is closed, which indicates a compensation culture, which the state assigns an almost divine role, especially in a society that tries to push aside any religious act.

Greifbar the responsibility
Lastly, a revelation of our national saint - for me, one of Switzerland's largest, if not the greatest, without which we here in this little Form would be assembled, Brother Klaus. His advice "stuck the fence not too far" allowed the Stans, thus saving the old Confederation. The message is a general one. It is called something other words: If small, calculable for your countrymen, measurable, transparent, supportive and tangible in the responsibility! This is certainly a guarantee for freedom. •

Wording For 18th Birthday Invitations

The manipulation strategies of Gregory Bateson

Metalog technology, future workshops and pseudo-esteem "indigenous" cultures
ts.

The American Gregory Bateson, highly praised by the European Zukunftswerkstättlerszene Guru, developed in a group of "chosen ones", the group of Palo Alto, militarily usable communication theoretical models of thinking, that civilian waste products today are seeped in part in the everyday vocabulary, such as the concepts of "meta" and the "double bind." The term "Metalog," the strategists Use the "future workshops" comes from Bateson and mean something as harmless as that the content of a conversation, always with the shape of call should be connected. Bateson was, among other things, in the study and treatment of schizophrenia. He showed the conditions under which people can be schizophrenic, so be so mentally confused that they slide into a psychosis and deal with the everyday life no longer in a position. In the mainstream literature on Bateson it is highly praised his work as an exercise for the benefit of people, especially the mentally ill. The work in California's Esalen it did not have to be esoteric, but his knowledge of Group dynamics and large group control depth means that it mainstream proportions over him. So far, so good.

schizophrenia research - what for?
Reading but the adjacent text by David H. Price about the activities of Bateson for the OSS (forerunner of the CIA) during World War II and his proposals to hold even after the war, the colonial peoples to better below are than the British and would have made the Dutch ever get such a whether the least doubt the integrity of the researcher Bateson in areas of psychology. It was not militarily interesting to use the results of schizophrenia research, for example, to prisoners of war to disrupt and drive them to madness, to then rebuild - or entire communities into "enemy states", yes, even in our own country? As Bateson's anthropological knowledge is not for but against the people used, it must be assumed that the cold war, and probably still use the findings of its power strategists schizophrenia or disruption of human research. For example, in Europe, where attacks by bombers are definitely not enough to consolidate the rule of Uncle Sam. But aspects of the "Psywar" psychological warfare, manipulation and control of groups of people in the direction which wants the usurper, be expected.

unexpected reverence for tradition
have learned that the PR consultants and spin doctors such as a stone bridge in the U.S.? That, for example in Switzerland must not threaten the cavalry, because we close ranks, but act the aggressor "smarter" to do? Just about "future workshops" but also has the support of indigenous traditions? Gregory Bateson would love his joy at this sudden seems as naturally emerging "respect" and "appreciation" of the customs and festivals of the "natives", as he in his paper for the OSS yes to the example of the Soviets and their Siberian As subjects, which was recorded just because of allowing indigenous traditions were no riots.

Bateson strategy instead of Frankfurt School?
The matter is ambiguous: Of course it pleases one when we can celebrate Swiss proud of our history and tradition of our festivals, her especially after all the years of attacks, first from the U.S. east coast and Tel Aviv, then by their own 5. Column to the dubious Professor Bergier, back again by the City of London and Wall Street, again seconded by something that scolds the Swiss left. Links and urban, now seems synonymous with "lackeys of high finance." And I will also in Germany in the SWR Radio now new again granted the German folk songs in their original form, the source room. Obviously, the approach of Bateson those of the Frankfurt School with its contempt for European values as alleged secondary virtues of fascism, by which also included the singing of folk songs has been replaced. Just as in Afghanistan, the new commander General David H. Petraeus a campaign for the recovery of "Hearts and Minds" has still starts to be suppressed - and that shortly after the so-called "surprise" discovery of the immense mineral resources in this war-torn country. In his address to the soldiers of 27 July 2010 with the title "COMISAF's Counterinsurgency Guidance» 1 orders the General, among other things such as, the soldiers should not hesitate to remove the sunglasses when they spoke with the population, like good customers behave, and their own actions are seen through the eyes of Afghans - that is quite along the lines of Gregory Bateson's call for "calculated empathy" ...

What is it about really?
And awakens in Switzerland, the greed of power strategists? The surge Gotthard? The beautiful landscape as a holiday resort? Real estate? Transportation corridors? The Alps as a training venue for the Hindu Kush-warriors? The "archaic Sennen" as cannon fodder in the global war for resources? As it was under Napoleon? Or simply want to Switzerland as Anglo-Saxon base in an EU-Europe, serve, from which one never knows whether it may be close but sometimes friendship with Russia? What would be the end of the delusion of geostrategists à la Mackinder and Brzezinski, the world is to control only if we master the world island Eurasia, and the dominant one only if you drive a wedge between Russia and Europe and Europe as a vassal handle think.

No to Visionitis - Yes for direct democracy
But just as Napoleon had miscalculated and 1803 thanks to the resistance, especially with the central Swiss cantons, ie the rural Switzerland, zurückbuchstabieren Act of Mediation, give up the centralism and allow the federal system had, as expected, like Hitler with a death toll of 700 000 dead army soldiers had to Operation Christmas tree, the conquest of Switzerland, to be addressed - shrink let what it -, as well as the Swiss population should be consulted for the apocalyptists EEA No, not left unruffled and even today absolutely do not want to be forced into the EU juggernaut, - just as the Swiss sovereign in regard to the background and the dark men from the big money is not leave now and say a triple no means a no to Fusionitis, a No to Agglomeritis and a 'no' to Visionitis, the so-called future workshops! to keep the other hand, is a threefold Yes: a "yes" for direct democracy as a model of peace and social model of compensation, a "yes" to perpetual armed neutrality and a "yes" on the humanitarian Switzerland as the depositary of the Geneva Conventions and the good service!

Christoph Mandl, European reference figure of Zukunftswerkstättler refers in his writings not only to the eugenicist, neo-Malthusian and deep ecologists Garrett Hardin, but also to Gregory Bateson, a former OSS agent (the forerunner of the CIA) and the mastermind of the large group guidance technology.
Sun Mandel writes in the year 2000 on Bateson's manipulation strategy of the so-called "Metalog":
"The definition of Metalog of Gregory Bateson was a perfect fit: \u0026lt;A Metalog is a conversation about a problematic issue. In this interview, the participants should not only discuss the problem, but the structure of the conversation as a whole should also be relevant for this very subject> "

Initiation Of A Rookie

The implementation of anti-democratic structures

future workshops and their ideological obscurantists

neo-Malthusian, Chicago Boys and the deep ecological war against the poor
Tobias Salander

For some time they shoot all over Europe like mushrooms. Every citizen who watch with their own eyes through the country and the countries of Europe travels, notes with surprise and irritation growing: almost everywhere formed in many communities, be they rural towns or cities, new structures, the with democratically anchored and resting on the ground of popular sovereignty established structures, institutions, and operating procedures have nothing in common. We are talking about the so-called "future workshops". In a significant uniform shape, they are knitted by a knitting pattern that every mature democracy and in particular the direct democratic experienced fellow occur Hispanic needs - or maybe not rather English, but the European, committed to the Enlightenment principle of democracy is alien to smell it after the Anglo-Saxon utilitarianism, if not even for an elitist Auserwähltheitsfanatismus economism and murderous - but with the a proven means can be countered: with a keen sense of citizens and the direct democracy!

"future workshops" - which at first glance from the daily stress may turn out seems no problem - who does not already thinking about the future? - Is already proving to closer scrutiny than cunning "top-down" strategy, which has decided to sell but tricky as "bottom-up approach. How is a handpicked group of private coaching, large group close trained social engineers at the normal local democratic institutions growing ever soar past as a steering group presumes, was in this newspaper described in detail. (See, Current Concerns No 32 of 8.9.2010)

-Controlled
something that players are here at work that have no idea of democracy is obvious, but probably considered too naive. Judging by the people who earn their money through the organization of "future workshops" to publish books and to solicit business for their actions, it is thoughtful. In particular, if one follows the footnotes in the said books, supports you and can not avoid to some Recherchierarbeit the impression that a well-organized to have something bigger going on. What makes a first in the local community by the way stripped, leaving an unpleasant impression at first because it Look strange and then voraufklärerisch mainly affects the achievements of popular sovereignty and representative of the principle of separation of powers and the principle of publicity is a mockery, with intense preoccupation with the windy and fishy matter to an extensive whole. Just as the thumb and forefinger, one might see only the respective fingers, still not have to infer the underlying hand, or the tentacles of an octopus, individually felt and Hide in the dark depths of the sea, not on a body and head, can one finds oneself in the future workshop before numerous appendices, which on closer approaching in the background into a thing lead, which obviously also has a control center - which may also themselves be very diverse and have again a very core of self-appointed chosen ones.

world population decimated
To the cat out of the bag: the reference figures of the self-appointed social engineers of the future workshops are ultimately in the large pool of the Anglo-Saxon utilitarianism to find chosenness faith neoliberal apologetics of "homo economicus" go hand in hand with advocates of deregulation, market liberalization and privatization, but also followers of Malthus that the world population through war, pestilence, famine, do decimating earthquake or dictated from population control and strongly to make the UN and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights Front. Passing it should be with individual liberties, democratic structures, with cooperative approaches: in their place should the penalty occurred, the total privatization of all goods, the partitioning of the rich countries against the poor, the naked egotism and a primitive Revival of Social Darwinism. All beautifully wrapped in melodious words such as "use of increasingly scarce resources", "biodiversity conservation", "save the planet from the predatory man" or in short: "The tragedy of the commons."

revival of "Chicago Boys"
The interested reader is invited to take two of the "Future Workshop" strategists even mentioned theorists by their own writings on a closer look.
thus finds in the book "Dispatch future: miss, plan, facilitate, ..." 1 in addition to many simple knitted text attempts by would-be "future workshops"-local variables, for example, drawn attention to let end text of a certain Christian Mandl, entitled "certainty, risk, and new "(p. 261-270). Mandl, presented in the book include a management consultant, Professor at the Faculty of Economics at the University of Vienna and managing partner of the firm "metalogikon's true, in his essay in praise of the EU, the privatization of the public service, yes, the subordination of the entire economy under the dogma of the" Chicago Boys, "while urging the reader on, to negate the established democratic structures, to avoid them and put something new in their place. His suggestion is, of course with euphemistic phrases turned into a positive, bring people with methods of industrial psychology at its certainties to make it as a subtle, he stirred up fear of the future be able to control her better.

contempt of law
By providing a shortage of Resources brought about talking and starts from a reductionist, economistic primitive of man, he calls people to reconsider their choices and actions of the influences of rules, objectives and standards and thus to solve the predictability. This leads to uncertainty in the risk - and by infantilised the people he calls, and have nota bene, the man speaks of the destruction of our democratic state, should live it that way, "as we probably all lived as children: trying out things with curiosity, wondering what are the consequences of own actions, and sometimes "crying in pain. (P. 270) The age of certainty more so to the end. Mandl welcomed us in his "age of risk." It is as if there were no grown culture, no tradition, no law, no clearly defined democratic processes. For responsible citizens of the 21st Century, familiar with the rules of democracy, such proposals nothing but contempt and ridicule, the contempt of law, legal certainty, protection of minorities, etc. etc.

counter findings of the World Agriculture Report
That one in the interpretation of some legal language so next text from one of the bibles of Zukunftswerkstättler has hit the mark completely, unfortunately, will attend the consultation of the reference figures quoted by Mandl. He supported its call for the privatization of public service, which he subtitled "The tragedy of the commons", to the writings of Garrett Hardin, who in 1968 in the journal Science under the same Title2 and in countless other treatises on the assault against the social market economy, the cooperative principle and the common property, but also blew against the UN Declaration of Human Rights and as an avowed advocate of the inhuman ideology of Thomas Robert Malthus (1766-1834) came out. Malthus, an Anglican priest and professor of history and political economy in England, was notorious for his cynical, overtly racist theory of population. In his "Essay on the Principle of Population" of 1798 he set up a claim that has since been modified several times and finally refuted by the Weltagrarbericht3.
has worked out of the World Agriculture Report, that mankind is to feed very well and in much greater numbers, and best done by small family farms in the region, and was already at the time of Malthus, such as William Godwin, pointed out that productivity through technological progress is constantly improving, Malthus' approach so could never stand up to scientific criteria and is pure ideology, namely a murderous, - even if the so-called neo-Malthusian So long ago exposed as acting in a totalitarian instrument strategists, who uses the above-mentioned, by Garrett Hardin Zukunftswerkstättlern hyped nonetheless and with fervor and an incredible chutzpah as a central reference figure for the solution of problems of the 21st Century.

Malthus and the war against the poor
under the aforementioned title, "The Tragedy of the Commons' current and an essay of 1998 entitled" The Feast of Malthus - Living within Limits "(The Feast of Malthus - Life in of boundaries) 4 rehabilitated Hardin (1915-2003), Professor of Human Ecology, the genocidal, racist ideology Malthus in the 18th Century and they are praised as the panacea for mankind in the 21st Century - as if there had never been a National Socialism and all its side effects such as eugenics, euthanasia and genocide. The human race, the notorious fallacy of Malthus, obey blindly the law of unlimited proliferation, and that the number of people take in a geometric progression (2, 4, 8, 16 ...) that the food but only in an arithmetical (1, 2, 3, 4, ...). Which would mean that the stocks were not sufficient for the world's population and "Corrective" need such as disease, war, natural disasters, poverty and so Death to redress the balance. had repaid the following passage, which Malthus himself while in his later works, does Hardin out specifically to define them as the basis of his inhuman thought. Malthus wrote:
"A man who said he that is born in a previously unoccupied world if his family does not have the means to feed him or if the company's work has no need, this man has not the slightest right to any to require a portion of food, and he is really too much on earth. The great feast of nature by no means covers for him has been laid. Nature commands him to resign, and she did not hesitate even to execute this command bring. "5

genetic racial differences?
This view is from Hardin, this time between the late figurehead Zukunftswerkstättler, fully supported, only he would the term "feast" through the metaphor of the "lifeboat" replace. It was about saying what was in the military medical "triage" called, so the selection of people because of alleged lack of resources. Hardin is based on genetic racial differences among humans, calls for the world today birth control, which is can be enforced only under duress. Privatization of common goods do need, and must be found of the "dominant religion the last 300 years "away, the individualism of John Locke. The individual must give up his freedom for the Community (Feast of Malthus, p. 185 ff).

Against UN Human Rights Declaration
What Today Coming so Hardin, was a social revolution, or rather a counter-revolution, since they can be derived from earlier ideals. Today we need many experiments, and so must our species remain separate in many nations. Only thus could be carried out several experiments that would never be tolerated in certain states. What he means is clear: The "hollow talk of universal human rights" must end. This infamous frontal attack against the UN and the UN Declaration of Human Rights already Hardin rode in his essay "The Tragedy of the Commons" in 1968. He argued that although it is painful to deny the right of the family as the fundamental unit of society, but it should be. We feel, however, as uncomfortable as a resident of Salem, Massachusetts, which in the 17th century have denied the existence of witches. Especially if you love the truth, one must deny the validity of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, even if they are supported by the UN. Yes, you read correctly: human rights are nothing more than a delusional, just as it was the witchcraft 6 We do not like to continue in the writings of this! Garrett Hardin's article - so his argument is inhumane!

deep ecology and Council on Foreign Relations
But coincidence or not, in Foreign Affairs November / December 1995, published by the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), under the title "The Rights of Nature: Has Deep Ecology Gone Too Far? »7 just this with the deep ecology Garrett Hardin put in context, but harmless as" classified. It's no surprise, but the CFR is just one of those circles who have been talking for some time and also work with most sinister clandestine methods to a decimation of the world's population and the neo-liberalism, the word - or even bombs or some things they rain down on countries that are not to add this "brave new world" willing.
These are the men behind strategists and background of those who are currently trying to democratic structures with their obscure "future workshops" overturn. With most primitive economistic reductionism that transformed the war against poverty in the war against the poor, said billions of people for simply superfluous, with force and violence, when reducing necessary but also with war and self-inflicted disasters mankind will - as has the French physician and former ambassador to Senegal Jean-Christophe Rufin in his historical novel has "100 hours" 8 is shown forcefully and warning: Insane deep ecologists, who deny the people everything, making him the man does, and him to a species among many degrade to a cancer that will decimate some self-appointed chosen one million times to deliberately spread diseases . A task, in comparison to what the Nazis have to appear as bumbling beginner.

Small-scale agriculture and cooperatives as the only viable way
While some with soft power and social engineering manipulation, we bombed the other and the third covers with one of the UN climate-changing banned weapons such as the Russian news agency Ria Novosti recently thematized's (See Time-No questions 33, 17 August), and the Uno from yes of related phenomena in terms of the floods in Pakistan and the fires in Russia.
Truly far we have come a man! And yet the majority of people do not want this madness. The forces of those who wish to maintain human rights, the right to life of all people are strong enough. The world's agricultural report, eloquent witness to the fact the award of the Nobel Memorial Prize to Elinor Ostrom for her work on the commons. Ostrom explicitly refuted in their writings the views of a sick Hardin, particularly in the book "Governing the Commons: The Evolution of Institutions for Collective Action "by 1990.9 Their findings: Appropriate and sustainable management of local resources Allmen Dere by an institutionalized cooperation of local stakeholders is generally superior to a centralized state control and privatization.
effective: The world's agricultural report has shown that a small-scale agriculture, based on family farms is in a position to support a much larger world population than today. Famine are not inevitable, as Malthus and his disciples Hardin and Mandl down to the turned-local "future workshop" would have us believe. The modern period until today knows not a single famine, which would have been caused by overpopulation. It has always been dictators like Stalin and Mao Zedong, who sent millions of people in the planned ice-cold starvation.
So there is not a valid Malthusian formula, and thus no justification for forced population reduction. Likewise, there is a "tragedy" of the commons, on the contrary, the Genossenschaftsprizip a success story that was just in Switzerland, the basis for the democratic state-building from the bottom up and the direct democratic rights. Ergo, the reasons fall for the "future workshops" collapses. It is contrary to the Constitution of any law, to manipulate people by a random brandishing her fear of the future and cut short the democratic processes and structures to do. This would be a step behind the Enlightenment, behind the principle of legal equality and human dignity in long term and would open the door to a deep ecological genocide unprecedented proportions. After the experience of the Second World War and the countless previously led wars mankind should be wiser now and watch the error, as few people wanted to ask about the other commit no more. Not a second time
