It is obvious to me that events will get worse in the Middle East as a result of the Hamas/Zionist conflict. The problem is that the MEANS used to establish the Zionist State was not a positive 'means' (an agreed affair). Our politicians did not focus on the MEANS when they established the Zionist State in Israel. They simply 'mandated' a State and this has resulted in some 56 years of occupation for the Palestinians.
Killing all the Hamas warriors will not bring this region any real peace. Another enemy will arise with a different 'name'. The problem over in the Middle East is that no real AGREED format was established at the START. This produced a situation where the ENDS are being justified. In reality, the 'ends never justify the start (means)'. It is now unlikely that a TWO State solution would work for the Zionist State and the Palestinian people. The history is our problem. The MEANS was not valid/righteous/agreed.
Our world is heading for Armageddon because our politicians do not follow a valid MEANS when they impose their mandates upon the masses. The philosophy of our politicians is our problem. The idea that MIGHT can produce JUSTICE is also invalid. War can never bring us real peace and security. A negative MEANS brings a negative end result. We need a NEW philosophy for this planet. Some ideas are the following:
1. The 'individual' must be supreme. Any State which imposes its will upon the people can not provide the 'individual with peace, justice, and security.
2. We must eliminate the State and promote the 'individual' (as supreme). I learned this idea while working as a bartender. I could get along with everyone as I put the 'individual' first (in this bar environment). Also, America's founding values are based upon putting the 'individual' first. The State can not bring the world any real freedom, justice, and peace.
3. We need to think of reality as 'successive moments of NOW'. There is no reality outside the NOW. I live my life in the NOW (always). I assume that you do likewise.
4. The idea that the PAST and/or the FUTURE are reality does not stand up to reality in the NOW. I never experience the PAST (only a Now memory). I never experience the FUTURE (only a Now visualization). Reality is always a NOW experience. We need to promote this idea for our world.
5. We need to promote the MEANS as key to any Now event. The MEANS must be agreed upon prior to any mandates by the group. This mindset will promote progress for everyone.
6. War and negative force must be eliminated from our world system. After some 6,000 years of war, no peace has occurred on planet Earth. Might does not make Right.
7. The WHOLE must come before the 'part' in our thinking. The Chicken comes before the egg. This is the mindset for progress for everyone. The WHOLE is key to progress for our planet. Macro Evolution is invalid as it is based upon the 'part' coming before the 'whole'. The chicken must come first..then the egg. My view!!!
Give these ideas some reflection as we all WATCH events get more DIRE on this planet. Our problem is our thinking/mindset. We need NEW thinking and this can not happen (collectively) until people desire NEW thinking. That is my viewpoint and philosophy. Have a great day!
Philosopher Plato did not create the American philosophy as written in our Declaration of Independence. Plato assumed that the State could be a final philosophy for the world. But this mindset has not worked in real-time since the days of Plato (now some 2,300 years). The State can never give us real FREEDOM. Democracy is the best that any State can realize (and democracy is really nothing more than mob rule). Plato proposed a 'republic' (as the best system possible)!
The American dream is impossible under a State mandated system. Only the Kingdom of our Creator can give us a world where the 'individual' is SUPREME! Think on this! Our current State mandated world (all nations) gives us continuing WAR and a CONTROL system of enslavement (for the masses)! We need a NEW System where the 'individual' is SUPREME!
