The New Breed: Content to infect mankind with Ignorance

The New Breed: Content to infect mankind with Ignorance

People are content with ignorance nowadays (it’s just the way it is, turned out to be), go off on a tangent over simple things, and overlook the big; clumsy they are, misunderstood they say (often); oh yes they are, if you are saying no to this. A good scientist nowadays (likened to many of us now), is too content with changing old (and as they say: ‘worn out,’ unproven discoveries), because of new mentalities, for new discoveries that are less provable: he and we, you, she, I and they, should simply admit this, that these particular younger minds particular I say, for the scientists, put less importance on proof, they give fragmentary proof, of the new, for the old, substantiated, but as I said, a tinge worn out because of age—and say it is written in concrete; hence, a new language is developing out this kind of thinking, out there, hitherto borne from the lie, until death do we part, that is the new language, it started in the ‘60s (I hate to say, my time), and developed in the ‘90s (there time) to complete its mission of ignorance, now in the first decade of the 21st century: thus, the blind leads the blind, and smiles all the way to the editors office, or the military’s command; or the UN, or the alter—it has a multi curriculum. Keep the world ignorant, churning and chugging every solid and old idea into mush, persuading the new tongues of the day at all corners of life and studies (knowledge in: philology), persuading, if not manipulating until forced into intellectual lockdown, we see this in our freedoms being smashed for the pendulum of modern sciences. Islam has this philosophy, oversight, committed to blindness. It says “Oh,” painful learning means you must go with the flow, not define their terms, motives, interests, even the Good Old American way, has this growing dilemma inside their heads, now quite as bad as Europe, or the Middle East, or China’s new Asia, but frankly, take it by faith is what they say, it is for your interest, and call it science—not ignorance, tradition, or Godly sent, anything but ignorance (even the war in Iraq, has turned out to be just that, ignorance by us, for the greedy). Where is responsibility? Perhaps it is all eaten up by self-interest, you know, the politicians and the scientists: those that say, “Don’t go and spoil Antarctica,” and launch a 200-man team to trample through its wilderness, yet telling the good folks of the world, stay away, unless you are a scientist, or politician, it is in the world’s interest (hogwash, it is in your interest, you simply want more room to play your games), and what are they doing, but digging holes in the ice sheets (scientific holes of course), and Antarctic peninsula remains scientific ground; we are big time hypocrites on top of the liars pyre, all under an unhealthy climate, general style to infest mankind into excepting ignorance as a lifestyle.

Iran: Operation: Extermination Procedures (stop playing their game)

Let’s stop the game playing here. Iran does not want to be humiliated I heard the writer from BBC say, yet, they know the game well, how to humiliate, and taking in 15-Bridish Sailors is a good way of doing it (which is old business for them). So the question comes up, “…were they, the British Sailors in Iranian waters?” Everyone around that area at the time says they were not, and normally the British and Americans give a lot of latitude in this area. So let’s assume it is ‘no, they were not in Iranian waters’, since Iran has a death wish in the making anyhow. I mean, let’s not say: “I wonder if this is a misunderstanding,” as said By Bridget Kendall, BBC diplomatic correspondent; I mean we are in the 21st Century now, not heading into WWI, it is WWIII, in the makings. Let’s look at reality here. We are going to land on Mars in a few years, so says President Bush, perhaps by 2019, and we are not sure where the line water is in the Persian Gulf on a clear day (I don’t think so), with those multimillion dollar vessels under their feet, we know, they know, so let’s stop kidding one another, almost everyone knows. In the old days, we used to say: give us back our men, or we will have a war. This is a good reason to take Iran out, use it, time is essential. They are the pests in Iraq, they are surely linked to the PLO, and Lebanon’s trouble will perhaps disappear, this is a good time for exterminating procedures to commence.

The Narrative Dialogue and Meeting of:Historian Maria Rostworowski and Poet Dennis L. Siluk

The Narrative Dialogue and Meeting of:
Historian Maria Rostworowski and Poet Dennis L. Siluk


Advance: A historical meeting, it can be called between renowned historian, Maria Rostworowski (de Diez Canseco), of Lima, Peru, and Dennis L. Siluk, Poet and novelist (who lives part time in Peru, and part time in his home state of Minnesota, USA); Maria has a half-century of cultivating Peru’s historical past, and a world wide audience with her countless books on its cultures, traditions, and historical data; a few books translated from the Spanish into English (i.e., “History of the Inca Realm”).
Maria's mother was a Peruvian lady and her father was Polish, as was brought out during the meeting between her and Dennis. Maria arrived in Peru when she was 19-years old, and fell in love with the country, similar to Dennis’ experience. She married a Pole in Poland, as Dennis married a Peruvian from Huancayo, Peru, adventuring in Lima, in 1999, they met, and married a few months later, in February of 2000.
Maria became a self-taught historian. Like Maria, Dennis’ enthusiasm has lead him to explore Peru, and write six books on its customs, traditions, and culture, in poetic form, and receive awards from the Los Andes University, in Huancayo, for his cultural contribution; in addition, he was awarded the Grand Cross of the City of San Jeronimo, and appointed Poeta Laureado of the city, along with Awarded the National Prize of Peru, "Antena Regional": The best of 2006 for promoting culture.
Maria, in Lima she met and married Alejandro Diez Canseco, her true love and together they lead a very culture-oriented life, perhaps like Dennis and Rosa Penaloza de Siluk have these past several years, for Rosa has traveled around the world several times, and throughout Peru.
Although much of Dennis’ cultural poetry is on many aspects of Peru, a great deal is on the Wanka Warrior and Pacific War, Dennis being a decorated Vietnam Veteran, of the war (1971), and the Mantaro Valley, as with Maria, to a great extent is on the Inca Empire.
Maria, She perhaps can be called, or referred to as the Josephus of Peru; as Dennis has been referred to in Peru, as the Jules Verne (referring to all his travels, and books relating to travel, and his cultural style of poetry, and writings), and at times, the Globe-trotter Poet, dubbed by the newspapers, and magazines in Peru. And now for the Narration, and meeting:




The Narrative Dialogue and Meeting



We (my wife, Rosa and I) arrived at the building about 10:50 AM, Thursday, Morning, in Lima, Peru (Miraflores) at the cultural center (Peruvian Learning Instituted); right after we arrived we talked briefly with the guard, and we were already twenty-minutes late for the meeting, our cab was stranded on the highway, and we had to jump off it, and catch another on the side road. As we hurried on up the stars, we came to a small office, the guard had pointed to, there she was sitting behind her desk, I knew her instantly, had seen a picture of her, she looked the same, I thought it was a younger picture, so I was surprised: she wore a silk like multi colored blouse (black, red and white for the most part). She was 91-years old, but looked more like 67 or 69 I thought, well kept. She, Maria came around her desk, greeting me and my wife, and asked us to sit down, at which time, I gave her two of my books I had done on Peru, she read the titles verbally, as she looked at each one, read them in English, “The Spell of the Andes,” and “The Magic of the Avelinos,” she smiled, I could see she was proud to be a Peruvian, even though I would find out, she was Polish, from her father’s side, and Peruvian from her mother’s. I knew it was most difficult to get a visit with her, she had been sick a week before, and did not allow many visitors to visit her, confirmed by a number of people prior to my arrival, and even the guard was surprised, thus I felt more than lucky.

“Sit down please,” she said with her strong looking frailness, soft but stern eyes.
As I sat down I asked her to sign one of her boos for me, ‘Historia Del Tahuantinsuyu” and as I went to sign my books for her, she said, modestly, and with a little humor, “We shall interchange,” and again came that mysterious smile, that was warm and unspoiled.

(During the next few minutes I stood up, and Rosa my wife, too two pictures of her and I, and I showed them to her on my digital camera, and she looked at me somewhat, and said, “I’m 91-years old:” I didn’t say anything, perhaps nothing to say, she looked 20-years younger, perhaps that clinic had did some work on her, if so, it was worth every penny she paid, she looked good for her age.)


Next came, loose talk about the food from Huancayo, since I had brought up the subject of my wife being from there, “I like Cuy Colorado,” I told her, and she replied, “Have you tried Cuy Chactado?” And I replied, “Oh yes…Professor Padro’s wife in Huancayo made it for me, it was very good!” Then I added, “I like Huancayo po…ta..” and before I could finish the sentence, she corrected me, “You mean, Papa a la Huancaina?”
“Yes,” I confirmed.

(I think Maria was finding out, I loved Peru and its mysterious cultures as much as she did, back when she first discovered this ancient land.)

“What is your origin?” she asked me, knowing I was from North America.
“Russian and Irish,” I said, adding, “And your name isn’t Peruvian...?”
“Of course not,” she said, “it’s Polish.” Then I added, “I’m Polish also, from my Grandmother’s side, Russian from my Grandfather, and Irish, from my father.” Somewhat repeating myself.
“It’s a mixture,” she commented. I think I left out the Polish because of just that, too many spices in the pie. (And we talked briefly on that, how my extended family life, brought out the Polish and Russian in the family circle.)

Next, my wife and I invited her for breakfast saying, “Martina,” was going to be over Wednesday for breakfast (and her MD, friend).
“Who is Martina?” she said, with a speck of wit, she was quite lively for 91-years old woman.
My wife explained, she was from the Center of Anti-aging, in Lima, and she recognized the name right away, saying, “There is a meeting next week there.” (I thought, what a sharp memory, better than mine,)

Then realizing the time had gone by quickly, I merely said, in a low voice; “We shouldn’t take anymore of your time, you’ve already given us much of it, and I’m sure you have things to do,” and so I excused us, and she said promptly, “Nice to meet you,” she was standing, when she talked, and now started to sit down, as we started to leave.
It was a most cordial meeting, and one I feel, brought out the ordinariness of a person, one that is not locked into a box because of ones profession. This was good I thought: there is a great humanness about this renowned historian.

Just Words: Bone-head words

Just Words: Bone-head words


One must consider the value in writing for modern man, men of the 21st century, the new commentator—“Sweep the temple steps clean,” he says, “the tourist needs to see the shrine and get on back home,” to catch a plane here or there.
In each age there is a need to write, people want to see words daily, they want to know how to use them, and the why of them. I am no different; I’ve read the encyclopedia three times over. When I go to Peru, I don’t have one there, and I seem to be lost without it. I perhaps read and write five hours a day while traveling, and 10 or more when I am not traveling.
We simple do not seem to get enough out of words do we, and this essay is about words, plus we do not get enough of them, even though a simple book may have 30,000 to 130,000-words, depending. And the words don’t always justly satisfy ones reading, it is a task, but we do it, plus, everyone has his or her own versions do they not, of what they’ve read, and who knows, perhaps the write didn’t mean what you thought.
The mind of the East worries about the minds of the west, and the south is suspicious of all, and it all has to do with, words, all about words you see. And somewhere along the line we create our impressions from these words, perhaps some illusions along with them, we call the other guy with words, his opinions, he is hard-headed, or bone-headed, or a dead-head because his head doesn’t think like your head.

I am not suggesting what should be, nor what is concrete or simply exhausting for me or you, writing is simply communications service, a production of merchandise for the book trade, or paper, or magazine, and now the internet, it is most often the editor who determines what is important, this is what will be communicated. If indeed he says you’re not confining to this or that, he is perhaps waiting for a need for this or that.
Today the whole world is bathed in a struggle to get words out, knowledge of things come from words that define those things. And so the world begs for more words.
I prefer not to write to the new modern world, but in considering the value in my age-old thinking, perhaps each age has their needs, and my words have value. So this aging poet writes.

Vagabond to Vagabond: Brazil Complains!

I don’t want to be too cruel, or harsh on this subject, or debasing, for some may think I have a slanted opinion perhaps on this matter, which I really call an up-front opinion, and it has to do with American travelers in South America; and I spend a lot of time in South America. This does not pertain to Peru, Colombia or Argentina, and a few other countries. But countries like Brazil and Paraguay, and a few others, I will not mention their names, they know who they are. The premise is Visas. So what’s my beef! Just this, they are greedy. Let me explain.
Six years ago I went to Brazil for eight-days that is all, the visa cost me $60-dollars. Now in 2007 I go back to Brazil it cost me $100-dollars (in Paraguay, it cost $45-dollars even if you only want to stay a day, and there isn’t one thing worth seeing there, even in the big city called Asuncion ((which is really not too big)), not one thing worth $45-dollars to see; the only thing you get for your money is a cheap hotel for the dollar, yes, once you look out the window, you will agree with me most likely, except if you were born there. Yet on the other hand, it doesn’t cost the South American a dime for their Visas (I know because my wife has never had to pay), only Americans, yes, just North Americans; why they charge Americans, is perhaps because they know they don't want to live in Brazil, except if retired, there are no jobs, and little hope one would pay equal to America. The normal premise of a Visa, is to insure the person receiving it, does not stay in your country and take jobs away from citizens, and can pay his or her way while visiting; in most cases the Brazilian cannot meet these standards going to America, where everyone knows, Americans can afford to stay longer in a foreign country, and would not want to leave good old America, especially for most South American Countries, unless retiring, as I said before).
Anyhow, let me get on with my complaint, or better put, dismay at this situation. Mostly Brazil: I know they say ‘But we have a reciprocal Visa plan, monkey see, monkey do.’ Meaning, America makes it difficult for a person living in Brazil to get a visa to get into America. This is true, but if America did not have a policy like that, there would be no one left in Brazil, they’d all be in America (one must remember America is giving them aid, they are not giving it to us; if indeed it was reversed, I could understand their postion in this matter); like the Mexicans are doing, and the Asians in South East Asia are doing, and Cuba would like to do, and started to do, until we put a stop to it. It is no different than the West Africans (as they were doing) trying to invade Malta and Europe recently, trying to get on their shores, leaving their battered countries to start a new life, and they put a stop to it: the EU.
But here is my logic. They hurt themselves in the process, out of pride you could say, and to a neighbor that gives them between $800-million to $1.6-billion dollars a year--every year, and they slap the tax payer in America twice in the face. They grab the money and run like an elephant to the bank with it, and say, ‘…throw another $40-dollars on top of the already $60-dollars for the visa, it is simply part of the visa reciprocal program; thus, they get more money.’ It is a cheap way of slapping your neighbor in the face (as I just said, twice), who has just signed a billion dollar check for you (for nothing). If I had, but I don’t have of course, the power to stop these gift payments to South American Countries that slap our face, I would. Anyhow, the rhetoric we get back from them is this: ‘…you give more free money to Egypt, than us, your neighbor.’ They even say it as if they are hurt, so the beggar is complaining about the other beggar getting more; I can’t believe it.

How About those Young Critics

How About those Young Critics

The whole American speech today is turning into butter making and swallowing a large mouth full of cream and the world is a matching set. With the young critic today, there are certain things he or she does not know; blind I call this to some part of the spectrum, and part of the butter making process. Because in most cases their determined attempt has a patriotic flag, to conquer, thus it is not possible to get a good review in most cases, disuse of the beginner, to his limited culture refinement.
Another point not understood by young critics, who are clumsy at languages, is this: when we are kids, in our limited environment, we memorize certain things, process, biases, and it sticks with us for life, or until we can measure it with something else, in the process, one becomes however bored, prideful, and they never wholly forget, and consequently, call Confucius, Homer, Ovid, Dante, old stuff, unsatisfactory. This goes on in the internet, newspapers, magazine reviews, almost everyplace you find a young critic.
Is there a remedy? I do think so, I suggest don’t be limited to vague terms, making them up on their own, simply because they are too ignorant to have a meaning for them; the young critics who use terms so vaguely, by which I mean, articles etc.; we should demand of a critic his ideograph (his symbol), next what does he consider valid, or good writing, and what does he consider general terms. Now we know where he is coming from, and who he is, and should he be doing what he is doing, like a waitress that never smiles, she’s in the wrong business. It is like having someone live in St. Paul, and write about Peru, and never go there, he cannot simply stay in Minnesota writing about the Inca Culture, or the Wanka customs, or Nazca pottery, looking at pictures, he must begin by works (touching the pottery, traveling to the locations, talking to the people; another example might be, as in living in the south, no one can say this is bad or good language, if indeed folks talk the way you heard them talk, why would you write perfect English, when the folks back when, didn’t speak perfect English, it is the new young critic that things this way. Thus, before a critic becomes a critic, he needs a core curriculum (or program) in place with instructors, or be forever annoying to the readers with the dullness he demands.


Some years ago, I had a young man whom wrote me off and on for several months, wanting advise on what to write about, and I told him: forget about writing (if you can’t figure it out), and go on an adventures around the world, and when you get back, you will have more than what you need to write about. He said, "What do I need to start," I said, "...feet!" I haven't heard from him since, and that has been three or four years back. Perhaps this might be good advice for some young critics.

Hugo Chavez on a Rampage (3-11-2007)

Hugo Chavez on a Rampage


Hugo Chavez is presently showing the mentality of his people unless his people are paralyzed to do anything about it, and it is a shame Venezuela’s Government and media do not stop such a shameful spectacle a rampage around South America (if anything, he is not a normal person, ramping and raging as he does, like at a cockfight). Communism, socialism, feudalism, and fascism, and in Chavez’s case his socialism is really totalitarianism. I’m not saying Capitalism in the form of the American Democracy would fit the needs and structure for every country in the world, or even in South America, but a form of Capitalism mixed with Democracy, and a tinge of socialism may work for most countries.
And make such people like Chavez and Castro accountable to his people, instead of slowly boiling them alive. I live half the year, and been in most South American Countries, and been in Venezuela, the people don’t need Chavez’s kind of socialism (they are warm kind people), they need an honest elected man, one for the people and elected by the people, not a hummingbird that wants attention all the time, and is running wild with its oil revenues and throwing it every which way, while the poor live on the mountain sides in Caracas waiting for a handout; his kind of socialism is the kind he wanted for Peru, and every other country in South America, a dependency on him: this makes him the godfather.
Now for my second thought, I am not sure what these South American Countries are mad at Bush for, I mean, Bush or America has not caused them any harm, if anything given them for a century, aid in the form of food, military equipment, etc (1.6 billion, was the last figure I had—for nothing). But it is normally the free hand out by the good Samaritan, that the prideful bite (but pride always comes before destruction), only to find out down the road, it was more faithful than, their grandiose leaders, and South America has had it share, that is why it is as it is waiting for a leader that will not pluck their feathers, keeping them dependent, and running away with the piggy back to Europe or America or some island. Tomorrow Chavez can cash his billion dollar check America will give him for his over inflated oil, how much his people will get will be according to how hard the beg.

Peace for Israel and Palestinians: Why Not?

Peace for Israel and Palestinians: Why Not?


I don’t really think Hamas, whom the king never mentioned in his great lecture to congress (today) wants peace, but here is what he said “…Jordan's King Abdullah II said Wednesday the United States must take the lead in creating conditions for a permanent peace between Israel and the Palestinians.” … His remarks were limited almost entirely to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. … His comments on the Middle East issue before his departure for Washington were far more critical of Israel than the ones he delivered on Wednesday.” CNN
There is no language to change a world from war to peace, it comes from the heart, a break in the heart has to occur, and from what I see, and hear from Hama, Syria, Iran and the rest of the Middle East what they indicate, say, show and act, and produce, they don’t want Israel to exist (thus, they do not want peace, unless Israel evaporates, this is a code they live by), what has to change is infected to uninflected speech, and actions. And I think the king has got his good will in his pocket, every word he says has a little final tag telling America and Israel it is a subject or an object for them to cure, when the ball is in Islamic hands. The king is good in English, and he knows all the variations of how to get emotion from the west, only to hand over his misguided ideas to this specific group whom they want to have persuade Israel to die slowly (or so I see it that way).
If one finds it convenient to think in chronological cycles, and wants to review history, I suggest they look at why for 40-years every chance or attempt of peace has collapsed between Jew and Muslim, human confidence appears to have approached that the obliteration of the state of Israel is at hand, and thus the world suffers each time a set-back happens, and it happens every time this peace is almost available, but never quite ripe enough for the Islamic world.
I don’t want to use up too much of my time on this scornful subject, there will be peace when Hamas wants it (or Syria, Iran, and the rest of the Middle East, stop supporting Hamas and its ways), until then, there will simply be war. Like alcoholism, to tell a person to sober up, and not have something better for him waiting, why would he sober up? In a like manner from what I see, Hamas does not see anything better than war nor its comrade states, and the elimination of the Israel State is still in their hearts, a quest they believe is attainable (they have a lot of oil, thus, they have a lot of resources). I guess, like the King of Jordan, we all have our views; sorry I can’t go along with his.

Ignorance in Literature

Ignorance in Literature


The public needs to be educated (simple as that); in school they do not teach a view on literature as a whole, or its relation to any other part. Often the teachers consider this subject dull at best, not natural. There are literary masterworks out there, but most of them are not what we think they are. Hemingway, Faulkner, Fitzgerald, Joyce ( ‘Ulysses’ his masterpiece is nothing but a reckless Picasso), as was Gertrude Stein’s work, none have what I called masterwork interwoven in them, yes interesting, but far from admitted into the select category, much inferior to the Odyssey. Apologies for selecting these readers, I have most of their works, read all of them, and simple as they are, they are poor versions for a Nobel Price in Literature, or any prize in literature which is suppose to be top shelf stuff. Neither Faulkner nor Hemingway went to college and one can tell that in their writings, full of redundancy. If that is what they are teaching in school then literature is bound to be pushed aside and locked up in an old chest, for something else. The near past has miscalculations, clumsiness in their hammered out selections of junk; Emersion, was right when he said Nathanial Hawthorn was unlearned, and unprofessional, and lazy in his writings, and that is when North America started selecting, second best to be best, and now we are down to fifth best is best. E.E. Cummings, with his vast verity of poetry, has a few I like, out of an uncountable number, and Ezra Pound, a great thinker of his day in literature, perhaps came close to what could have been…but never was.
So where am I going with this? In defiance of this dead-end for the contemporary scene it may be urged that authors in the future attempt a mixture, of everything, not just detail, so they are more expandable and compressible in the categories they choose to write, if they seek the Literature prize, and I do think prizes are a deterrent to good works, most great writers perhaps do not have prizes, simply because they do not have the connections.
Most people do not know the term comparative literature, even college students in literature. We can call these students low-brow readers, what he needs to do is read more books, but we are down to American taste are we not, like the hamburger, and pizza, and chicken concepts, roll them off the assemble lines, put them in a box, and bring them to a bookstore that only sells the run of the mill best sellers, the new born arrivals. Many bookstores are doing that now; I am not making this up.
It is hard for most people to write orderly paragraphs, it surely was for Faulkner, so don’t feel bad, and Sherwood Anderson who seldom had a theme, or connecting plot, but he was suited for his day. I wait for enlightenment, and never seem to find much of it in literature nowadays. The Epic of Gilgamish is great of course, and other such works.

Literature is not as complicated as folks make it out to be, too often undefined, and common sense not used, which is often not common in writing, simple procedures, a theme, plot, and insight, clearly marked; discoveries, define where you are going, make it organized, not fragmentary like Faulkner’s, or Joyce’s, or e.e. Cummings poetry. Does the sentence avoid confusion? No where you are going, state it; approach literature as if it were not a library (or categorical division); don’t divide it up like a scientist. One thing needs to be related to the other—associations. It appears we have accepted unsatisfactory liberties as in our freedoms, in our literature, make it sound like it is suppose to, it doesn’t matter if Charles likes it, and Bill doesn’t, be true to literature, to it right, misspelling is just laziness, that is my hang-up, I even have a computer nowadays, and I misspell more than I did when I had only typewriter, but that is again, laziness not wise to do, but acceptable in the long run, for it can be quickly fixed.

America: Laws of War and Contentment

America: Laws of War and Contentment
(and: the Inside Hidden Force)


In today’s world, the sword has one point, only, and no sharp sides, the symbol is of course force, or power, or money, it is all in one. There also is a hidden force inside that tip, this point I’m talking about, divides and smashes to smithereens and kills, there is of course a mystery force beyond this, which does not go into the maze of man, inside the maze religion is destroyed, and there are different images of god, or gods, a movement you could say, this force remains outside it, but I wish only to talk about the inside force.
We have all been in fear, at one time of the unknown, I learned it in school, counseling school many years ago, this is the object we were to look for to stabilize the person we are counseling, find his or her cultivable area and bring it back to health. But the maze, which most of us are in doses not really have this kind of person, they, the lenders do want him around, yes, these so called moneylenders, who betray all to get all. And do nothing for it. How is this you say? I shall answer my own question in a minute. Another question: why are we in one war after another? There are reasons I do believe for this trend. In a way of thinking, you create a problem, solve it, and you look like the hero. In a similar manner, like banks, and as I said moneylenders in all shapes (not just banks), take in interest on all the money people put in it, this money of course is created out of nothing for them, the interest that is, and when it gets a lot of it, it can take back what the borrower cannot pay back, which they got out of interest for nothing. So they end up with money and assets such as cars and houses, and so for and so on.
In America this is simply called capitalism at work, or is it? You can, as they have, create a slump in a certain area of the market, as they did in the 1980s with gold and silver, it went up to $800 an ounce, I remember, I was in Ozark, Alabama at the time, the late 70s, and early, 80s, then all of a sudden gold went down (down, up, down), someone made money, and a lot of it. So we blindly follow the fog, where the moneylenders lead us in the maze, without looking, asking questions, but this is America, and we have liberties, right. And let us not forget the philosophic definition of American liberty, do as you please not necessary what is right, as long as you do not harmed anyone.
So we have liberty at work, but how does this all come about. I thought about this a lot today, and in the past, put it to words this evening, and here is what I came up with, War! Yes, war. It is really so simple. I can’t give you a lot of proofs, it would take 100-pages of thought, and investigation, but here is my idea in a nutshell, and perhaps old to many readers: drive the nation into debt, if you don’t who will lend money, money is the bowling ball, trade and industry is the bowling alley, this is called sabotage of course, but provoke a war to impose monopolies, in their interests, so they can extract the interest, the profits resulting from change, change is very valuable in the market today. In the past few days, we have seen this in action, and perhaps it has provoked me to speak out. The market in China went upside down, and hit Europe badly, someone, somewhere got a big hung of money out of it. And will again, after they buy, cheap, and sell later on, high.
Today if it cost a dollar for a war part, tomorrow the demand will rise, with the war, and it will cost $2.00, but you can borrow the money if need be, the lenders will give it, the supplier will borrow the money to make the supplies, and charge a higher fee for the demand; we got everything in motion now.
So let’s have a war (I guess we got one going, don’t we), and change some values, and then you ask, what happened to the cheerful dispositions of our youth, our nation, the utopia of the modern world, America. Fifty years ago, our schools were teaching different things, the laws were different; anyone my age can tell you that. We actually thought before we spoke. We could define our economic state of being. The reason a government needs to impose more taxes is usually because its expenses exceeds their forecast, or newly discovered needs, or it needs to produce more currency to keep up with whatever, a criminal act perhaps, if was to make the money that is. Thus we have origins of a war, created out of nothing, but a game to make more money, and war’s succession.
Well, this is simply my way of thinking today, if you got a better way, let’s hear it, I’ll give mine a benediction. It is really a poets view, more than an economist’s view, but I do know this, to get us back to what I would call normality in the good ole USA in the economic liberties field, it is not a step ahead we need, rather a jump (and perhaps stop an old war).

Iran & North Korea: Sacking the West

Sacking the West: America the Slave
Under: Black Mail


I hole this makes some sense, it does to me, but then often I find out, people have their own views, and rather be red then dead, an old saying from the 60s. Anyhow, let me see if I can get my thoughts out on this the way I’d like them. Democracy and liberties, we Americans are putting them up for sale, for hamburgers, and fried Chicken, pizza and soda, as we pay black mail money to any and every country threatening to build a nuclear arsenal. A bribe that is what it is, clear as day. This will not give us salvation, or a higher survival rate, but an ultimately impotencies (inability to function properly)) sad to say, but there are after affects to this)), as we burn those who think different, it is the curse of America’s new mentality, its general concepts: pay them, in the name of protection and peace; in the process, we go into isolation, as our religions are damned also, we are govern by men who take in account too few of the facts. A United Nations that is a farce, and a danger in that its committees appoint inner cliques to sack larger nations of their GNP in the name of plenty (yet these nations we support with food, have the ability and money to build nukes, just not feed their people, and why feed and heat them, or keep them warm, when you simply need to black mail America), and in the process create local disputes, which produce war. In Minnesota we go to jail for bribing a police officer, yet our elected officials, get a badge of honor for such work, and publicly too. We remain slaves to the little countries that black mail us, with no liberties (liberties indicate freedom from bondage), as long as we allow other nations to black mail us we are slaves.

America Growing Ignorant

America Growing Ignorant




Ignorant 1

Ignorant: unaware, badly informed, rude, ill-bred: I could go on and on, but that describes the topic pretty well, America is becoming Ignorant, this is not a phenomenon, it is a fact, and humanly motivated. And so I want to show you in my words, in my way.
We think, as Americans, we are pretty smart in this so called New World Order, which has been developing since the 1960s, because perhaps we win wars we cannot govern or contain thereafter. Thus, in the process we have forgot how to move about in a world we have inspired to change, only to find ourselves denatured and growing more ignorant about what is happening around us.
We have artificially created a world wide economy (cut out of what now is called globalism: a ward that didn’t exist in the 1970s); it is knitted together by the WTO (World Trade Organization), with the USA at the helm; yet the USA has lost the talent to run the program, out of plain old ignorance bad choices, bad selections, and allowing the blind to govern the blind.


What is the Mission? 2

What is the mission? It must first be defined, not after the fact, as in our reconstruction of wars. He, who has knowledge of the subject, without knowing the facts, is bound to arrive at a dead end. A friend of mine said he hated New York City, I asked him why? He said, “I couldn’t find a hotel, and me and my kids had to carry our luggage all over town…etcl,” But after asking for more facts I found out: he never made reservations; he didn’t want to take a taxi, he walked everyplace trying to find a hotel, and ended up sitting the night away on a bench with his kids. It did rain, but he just abruptly took him and his wife to NYC for a weekend holiday without any planning, expecting all would be well. I told him, I was in NYC three times and had a blast, but I had also done some planning, I had a mission, and it entailed having a place to sleep in advance, my mission was to see several sites my wife and I wanted, it was defined, if indeed we seen more than what we planned, all the better. On his part, ignorance, yes, and self inflicted.

Admiration 3

To avoid uncertainty know when you will be out of place—in most regional, and religious situations, after a war, this is overlooked; civilization building is not simply putting bricks on top of bricks.
America was once a world classic, why? Because it had certain eternal and inner irresistible freshness, it wasn’t ignorant, and then admiration came from those all around her.


The Past 4

Ignorant countries of the past are rediscovering the simple laws once mislaid (such as: Egypt, Germany, Japan, China, and Russia, to name a few), can be regained. Life mixed with the laws’ of art (skills, talent and ability to do), can pull a man away from ignorance.

When I eat fish, I want to know what kind of fish it is…that is called (to my understanding) modern thinking. When I was in the Amazon, I ate perinea; they have small bones in them, and many, similar to sunfish, back in the State of Minnesota, in the USA. I do realize, perinea fish, are not created to swim in the lakes of Minnesota, to try and make them, will create disorder among the other fish, to force the other fish to accept these deadly beasts, would to me be ignorant.
We are in this tub, kind of, that we think everything needs to look the same: hamburgers, pizza, sodas, chicken. The world is not a pizza, and the New World Order, is having a hard time figuring this out.
It is like trying to govern Iraq, with American ideology. If you want to win a war, you go to America, we are good at it, but if you want to govern, and contain Iraq (or a country like Iraq), you resurrect Saddam Hussein (or find someone like him, I hate to say). To think otherwise is ignorant of the laws of submission, environment, common will, and that is where criticism comes in for the USA.

Think carefully on this, this philosophic thought, their way of thinking produces difficulties for us, not for them, we say they misinterpret us, and they say, so what. Persuasion is no different than manipulation, and nobody likes to be manipulated.

President Chavez, Venezuelan Mosquito

President Chavez, Venezuelan Mosquito


I think Chavez, he has a double personality, and a tinge of paranoia, perhaps a few other symptoms of mental disturbances also, he now is pointing fingers everywhere he can, even at shadows, in fear he will not make it to his next dinner engagement, or Talk Radio show with Castro. Now he says the CIA is after him, a death plot. Does he think he can do as he pleases in a world that does not take kindly to his kind of rhetoric; I think he is a bit careless with his words, and I’m sure with his background, he has lots of enemies, not just a few in the CIA. From what I hear, Cuban anti-communist militant Luis Posada Carriles would like to have part of him, and perhaps his own people. For some odd reason, such dictators like him, think (Like Castro, and such presidents in Syria and Iran) they can do as they please with the powers of their nation, and not be accountable. It is just a matter of time before they are dethroned, in most cases, unless somewhere along the line they wise up. The world no longer can afford such leaders like him, and like North Korea’s. They are getting too dangerous for the new world, and now even Libya, who took the first step in calming things down, want a rebate, they want to be able to black mail the west, like North Korea and Iran is doing, they feel cheated, it is monkey see, monkey do. Even if they get want they want from such big countries as the EU, US, China and Russia, there has to be a halt to it, and in the past it has been by assassins, that usually does the trick, and every country uses that, not just the USA. Half the Middle East use that on a daily basis, so what is new, Castro used it likewise. Chavez has said he will cut the oil supplies to the US, should he not get his way. Iran said they will use their rockets on Israel, should they feel a need to (what then if they get the big one?); North Korea has warned Asia and even shot a few rockets into the Japanese Sea, so what does President Chavez expect; I would think, exactly what he has dreamed up.
Those that survive in this new world order will be those that can adjust to the world, and not solely on their own terms; Russia found out the hard way, and Libya did also, China’s ability to put 50-billion dollars into their military defenses this year is due to acquiring the right to join the World Trade Organization, which the US sponsored for them. Chavez may have to learn the hard way, as Castro has already done. Castro survived only because of Russia. Chavez does not have the luxury at the moment.
