FREEZING COLD WAR FOLLIES

AWARENESS, REALITY IS AN ILLUSION — 2023

Frighteningly Cold War film. The 1950s are no longer a reference, but in this film it is. The myth of creating human beings with special powers: telekinesis to move objects by mental injunction, Extra-Sensory Perception to read the mind and memory of people, Manipulative Mind Control to take over the mental control of individuals and make them do what you want them to do. Isn’t that the dream of any tyrant?

On one side save democracy by having a corps of special individuals who can control the minds of everyone (you call that democracy!) and on the other side one man who tries to get these people to do the same but for his own interest. Frightening. Both!

This perspective is so absurd that it becomes a smoke screen to hide the fact that in Ukraine and Israel-Palestine the US has completely lost control of anything. They lost the Arab world, and the Muslim world after the latest episode of the Israel-Hamas confrontation. And what’s best they brought Iran and Saudi Arabia back together, and behind it all, China started the diplomatic gathering of all Muslim countries in the Middle East about — the visible tip of the iceberg — a year ago or two. Hamas and Israel agree on one thing: it is their last chance to impose their control and their will.

And Ukraine is not better. Instead of imposing onto Ukrainian leaders the implementation of the Minsk Agreement, they give and provide, mostly free — for the time being — weapons, ammunition, and other military equipment for Kyiv to go on with this war with Russia. For once, Trump is right. The US, NATO, and the West (Europe mainly) have the power to impose a ceasefire and the implementation of the Minsk Agreement under the control of the United Nations. China and Russia would support this in the Security Council of…
