The matter of criminality entails one of the most pressing questions confronting the human race today; the many problems related to it need urgent resolution if life on Earth is again to be lived to the full.
Criminality is fundamental to all instances where freedom is fought for in the teeth of tyranny; the illegitimate exercise of power necessarily involves the deployment of criminal effects upon a large body of people.
Fortunately the problem is not beyond redemption; it became a burning issue fairly late in the story of moral development. Therefore intensive debate on the nature of contemporary criminality can still make a vital impact on its effects.
I wish to show that human beings have not always been criminals; that they became criminals only when Western Europe and the Mediterranean were cataclysmically invaded by hordes of savage cattle-herding nomads. To that end I will briefly annotate certain seminal historical elements that equate criminality with political misrule. However, as may be expected in my writing, I shall not be concerned with the role of governments, but of the global mass media in perpetuating the most pernicious aspects of criminality in despite of democracy’s best philosophical defences. The advice traditionally directed by social philosophers at governments have been invalidated, because the criminal element had in the second half of the twentieth century covertly wrested the capability for social engineering, and for the dissemination of propaganda as vehicles for the socio-economic subordination of broad masses, from governments, and had allocated them to the global mass media – thus invalidating all traditional defences against tyranny.
The background material supplied in this post will show that the exercise of power has traditionally comprised a dynamic far removed from that accessible to modern democratic governments. Conclusions drawn from history will elucidate the scope and magnitude of the arsenal of weapons accessible to the criminal element now in control of the global mass media. Perspective on the root causes of contemporary insanity will emerge from the considerations entailed in the brief analysis to follow. My objective is to inculcate appreciation for a basic element of the argument submitted on the topic of criminality in my writing: that the abuse of unbridled power is today a function of a systematic reversal of the direction of causality in matters regarding public trust and suspicion – that hope and fear are mobilized and deployed as conduits for the establishment of socio-economic effects detrimental to human health and safety – and that fundamental dissimulation of affairs by means of the most universally popular media formats are pivotal in prosecuting the criminal agenda. Particularly, I wish to show that the goal behind the drive is the attainment of world domination, not for Divine Authority swooping down from Heaven to intervene in human affairs on Earth by discrediting democratic governments, as concealed, malign manipulators pretend, but for Global Organized Crime.
The job of setting out the character and motivation of societies that prevailed in the aftermath of the invasions of the early second millennium BC, when the Dark Ages had fallen over a world civilized for possibly forty thousand years into the past, is best approached by means of a note on the origins of the Days of the Week. Fortunately one of the great scholars of the twentieth century, Robert Graves, did excellent research on the historical epoch during which the meanings for each day were determined. I selected material for the telling of that story from Hebrew Myths, a study on the Book of Genesis, an essential work co-authored by Graves and Raphael Patai, the renowned Hebrew scholar, and from The White Goddess, the famous historical grammar of poetic myth, by Robert Graves.
The topic is best introduced by means of a quote by Graves and Patai form Hebrew Myths:
‘During the primitive period of patriarchy, during the second millennium BC, the ceaseless declaiming of a small but tough guild of prophets against the easy-going cult of the Canaanite Goddess in sacred groves resulted in the banning of numerous rites, including ritual prostitution, ritual sodomy, and all forms of idolatry. When the Judaeans returned from Babylonian captivity, all idols – Baal, Astarte, Anath, and all the other Canaanite deities – had disappeared, and, with the sovereignty of the Davidic Crown, had become a thing of the past. Thereafter Genesis, which contains many Greek, Phoenician, Sumerian, Hittite, Ugaritic, and other bodies of myth, was edited and re-edited for moralistic reasons.’
Sunday commemorates the sun, the centre of our solar system. Monday refers to the moon. Tuesday is named after Tuisto, the Nordic counterpart for the god Mars, the Roman god of war, who was named after the planet Mars. Wednesday is named after Woden, the counterpart for Mercury. Thor was the Nordic Jupiter. Frigga was the Nordic Venus. Those four deities reflect the power exercised upon Europe through the Scandinavian invasions that inaugurated the Byzantine era. Saturday takes its name from the planet Saturn.
However, long before the Viking conquests, the Jews had borrowed those seven planetary deities from Babylon and Egypt: Mars was Nergal; Mercury Nabu; Jupiter Marduk; Saturn Ninib – and were commemorated in the Menorah, or sacred candlestick. During the sixth century BC they were combined in a single transcendental deity at Jerusalem, through the definition of the God of the Logos in the prophet Ezekiel’s vision, known as the Ma’aseh Merkabah (‘Work of the Chariot’) – a mystical doctrine historically treated with the greatest possible reverence by rabbis.
But the history of the God Jehovah began much earlier. Mount Tabor, one of Jehovah’s chief shrines, was named after Atabyrius, recognized by the Septuagint to be the son of Eurynome, the original Greek Creatrix of the Orphic Fragments, and the grandson of Proteus. The -byrius termination of his name had its provenience in Burna-buriash, a Third-dynasty Kassite (Indo-European) king of Babylon who reigned from 1173 to 1170 BC. Atabyrius entered Syria early in the second millennium BC with the Hyksos, and reached Thrace, Rhodes, and Crete before going into Egypt. Since those movements synchronize in corresponding order with the movements of Dionysus the Danaan White bull-god, the identification of this god with the Israelite Jehovah of Tabor is beyond doubt.
Jehovah became the first universal monotheistic God when religious rituals associated with each of the seven deities of the week took root among populations subsumed under the rule of the guild of prophets, which had resolved to unite its tribes against invasions by Egypt and Assyria. Graves and Patai write:
‘Jehovah’s first appearance is at the copper-workings of Ras-Shamra in Sinai in a carving of about the sixteenth century BC. He is then Elath-Iahu the Smith-god, the god of Wednesday and of the hazel-tree, symbol of the ancient poetic tradition of the tree alphabet, and is presumably the lover of Baalith the local Aphrodite, Goddess of Friday and of the quince or sorb-apple. Later in his theophanies at Moreh, Hebron, and Oprah, Jehovah is the terebinth-god Bel, the God of Thursday. The story of his defeat of the prophets of Carmel concerns the conquest of his Bel aspect by Cronos the god of Saturday and of the pomegranate in the person of Elijah. Bel and Cronos are always appearing in opposition, Bel being Beli and Cronos Bran (Saturn). ‘When Israel was in Egypt’, Jehovah was Set, the god of Sunday. At the Jerusalem Feast of Tabernacles, on the Day of Willows, he was the God of Monday. His name El (which is today retained in ‘Allah’), connected with the scarlet oak, proves him to have been also the God of Tuesday.’
In that regard, Robert Graves and Raphael Patai write in Hebrew Myths:
‘The explanation of the name ‘Israel’ in Genesis XXXII. 29 is popular etymology. In theopherous titles, the element containing the deity’s name is the subject, not the object. ‘Israel’ therefore means ‘El strives’, rather than ‘He strove with El’, just as the original form of ‘Jacob’, Ya’qobel’, means ‘El protects’. The intention of such names, which include Ezekiel and Azazel, was to enlist divine help for those who bore them.’
During that period, the time of the Judges, the central element through which Judaism came to effect the most unique episode in human development – the advent of civilization – through the effects of recorded history and the development of the concept of rule of law – parted company with a strain of Middle-Eastern culture that came to prominence some fifteen centuries later, during the seventh century AD, when the prophet Mohammed composed the Holy Koran, by means of which the tradition of the prophets was perpetuated: Islam – while in Israel the prophets were expurgated and the modern concept of rule of law evolved out of the observances of Jewish culture.
The seeds for a second parting of ways were sown at that time, and resulted during the life of Jesus in bitter confrontation between the dominant Pharisee priesthood, the descendants of Jacob, on the one hand, and the Sadducees, the descendants of Esau, known as the tribe ‘Edom’, on the other hand, who became Roman collaborationists under the Empire and who earned the loathing of Israel during the Herodian Dynasty, which was responsible for many atrocities, including the crucifixion of Jesus, a devout Jew who observed the Ritual Law of Moses in terms of Pharisaic requirements. The events of the Genesis ‘Ladder myth’ established Bethel as the ‘Gate of Heaven’ revealed by God to Jacob, the founder of Israel, who authorized the anointment of a famous local massebah, or sacred pillar, and sanctified the payment of tithes. Graves and Patai write in Hebrew Myths:
‘The rungs up which the guardian angels climbed in the Ladder myth represent the years in which Edom (Esau’s people) ruled over Israel: namely, seventy years of Babylonian exile – from the fall of the First Temple (586 BC) to the completion of the Second (515 BC); the subsequent fifty-two (in fact, fifty-eight) years of dependence on the Medes, which closed with Ezra’s leading back his group of exiles in the reign of Cyrus (457 BC); and one hundred and eighty years of Hellenistic rule – from the conquest of Palestine by Alexander the Great (333 BC) to the re-establishment of an independent Jewish kingdom by the Maccabees (153 BC). Edom’s unbroken ascent shows that although this particular midrash deals with early history, it was in fact composed during the period of Roman control over Palestine, which began with Pompey’s capture of Jerusalem in 63 BC and continued until the Persian invasion of 614-629 AD.’
However, the continued refinement and liberation of the Mosaic Law, as set down in the Talmud, developed over a period of about a millennium into a civilization of great moral intelligence, and thus of societal efficacy: Graves and Patai were able to demonstrate that the ancient aspects of the god El must rate as both primitive and barbarous in comparison with the effects of the modern Ritual Law:
‘That the patriarchs were pious men flatly contradicts Genesis. Evidently the great subsequent progress in civilization represented by the Pharisee priesthood’s liberalization of the Law in the time of Hillel, the most famous of the presidents of the Great Sanhedrin, resulted in a post-Hellenistic redaction of the Genesis material. All the patriarchs except Reuben and the infant Benjamin conspired to murder their brother Joseph, then sold him into slavery and gave out that he had been killed by a wild beast. Reuben cuckolded Jacob, and earned his dying curse (Genesis XXXV. 22 and XLIX. 4). Levi and Simeon were similarly cursed for their treacherous massacre at Schechem (Genesis XXXIV. 25 – 31 and XLIX. 27). Benjamin was promised a life of pillage. Yet the apocryphal Myth of the Twelve Patriarchs presents every one of them as a fountain of piety and wisdom. (Jesus quotes the Testament of Joseph (XVIII. 2) in Matthew V. 44, and The Testament of Levi (XIII. 5) in Matthew VI. 19).’
Research findings produced by Graves and Patai, both separately and in collaboration, supply a reliable perspective on the transition from matriarchy to patriarchy during the second and first millennia BC. The following passage was selected and paraphrased from The White Goddess, by Robert Graves.
‘In pre-dynastic times Set must have been the chief of all the gods of Egypt, since the sign of royalty which all the dynastic gods carried was Set’s ass-eared reed sceptre. But he had declined in importance before the Hyksos revived his worship at Pelusium, and reverted to obscurity after they were thrown out of Egypt by the Pharaohs of the 18th Dynasty. The Egyptians identified him with the long-eared constellation of Orion, ‘Lord of the Chambers of the South’, and ‘the Breath of Set’ was the south wind from the desert which, then as now, caused a wave of criminal violence over Egypt, Libya, and southern Europe whenever it blew. The cult of ass-eared Set in southern Judaea is proved by Apion’s account of the golden Ass-mask of Edomite Dora, captured by King Alexander Jannaeus and cleverly stolen back again from Jerusalem by one Zabidus.
‘The ass occurs in many of the more obviously iconotropic anecdotes of Genesis and the early historical books of the Bible: Saul chosen as king when in search of Kish’s lost asses; the ass that was with Abraham when he was about to sacrifice Isaac; the ass whose jaw-bone Samson used against the Philistines; the ass of Balaam with its human voice. Moreover, Jacob’s uncle Ishmael son of Hagar with his twelve sons is described in Genesis XVI. 12 as ‘a wild ass among men’: this suggests a religious confederacy of thirteen goddess-worshipping tribes of the southern desert, under the leadership of a tribe dedicated to Set. Ishmael perhaps means ‘the beloved man’, the Goddess’s favourite. The importance of the ass in national culture continued as late as the event of Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem as King of the Jews.
‘Though Astarte and Ashera were worshipped by all classes to the very end of the Judaean monarchy, nowhere in the Bible is any hint found of their connection with El or Elohim. The monotheistic editor of the cosmogony in Genesis I and II could assign no part in Creation to anyone but God, and therefore omitted all pre-existing elements or beings which might be held divine. Such abstractions as Chaos (tohu wa-bohu), Darkness (hoskeh), and the Deep (tehom) would, however, tempt no worshippers: so these took the place of the ancient matriarchal deities.
‘Though the revolutionary concept of an eternal, absolute, omnipotent and only God was first proposed by Pharaoh Akhenaten, and either adopted by the Hebrews, whom he seems to have protected, or re-invented by them, yet the name Elohim (usually translated as ‘God’), found in Genesis I, is the Hebrew variant of an ancient Semitic name for one god of many – Ilu among the Assyrians and Babylonians; El among the Hittittes and in the Ugaritic texts; Il, or Ilum, among the south Arabians. El headed the Phoenician pantheon, and is often mentioned in Ugaritic poems (dating from the fourteenth century BC) as ‘Bull El’, which recalls the golden bull-calves made by Aaron (Exodus XXXII. 1-6, 24, 35) and Jeroboam (I Kings XII. 28-29) as emblems of God; and in Zedekia’s impersonation of God as an iron-horned bull (I Kings XXII. 11). In Genesis II the name ‘Elohim’ is combined with a second divine name pronounced Yaweh (usually transcribed as Jehovah, and translated as ‘Lord’) and regarded as an abbreviation of the full name Yaweh asher yihweh, ‘He who causes to be what is’ (Exodus III. 14). That Yaweh in Genesis is given the divine surname Elohim, shows him to have become a transcendental God, credited with all the great feats of Creation. Many of the acts attributed in Ugaritic mythology to the bloodthirsty goddess Anath are attributed in the Bible to Yaweh Elohim. The Ugaritic description of how Anath massacres her enemies:
She plunged knee-deep in the blood of soldiers,
Neck-high in the gore of their companies.
Until she is sated
She fights in the house…
recalls the second Isaiah’s vision of God’s vengeance upon Israel’s enemies:
Yes, I trod them in Mine Anger,
And trampled them in My fury;
And their lifeblood sprinkled upon My garments,
And I have stained all My raiment…
‘Prophets and psalmists were as careless about the pagan origins of the religious imagery they borrowed, as priests were about the adaptation of heathen sacrificial rites to God’s service. The crucial question was: ‘In whose honour should these prophecies and hymns now be sung, or these rites enacted?’ If in honour of Yaweh Elohim, not Anath, Baal, or Tammuz, all was proper and pious.
Thus the universality claimed for Jehovah by the Pharisees and typified by the Menorah, the seven-branched candlestick, rests on a solid enough mythological base. He had incorporated the attributes of all other major deities of the time into Himself.’
Graves and Patai write in Hebrew Myths:
‘The Hebrew canon of the trees of the week, the Seven Pillars of Wisdom, is not difficult to establish. For the European birch, which was not a Palestinian tree, the most likely substitute is the retem or wild broom, which was the tree under which the prophet Elijah rested on Mount Horeb (‘the mountain of glowing heat’) and seems to have been sacred to the Sun. Like the birch, it was used as a besom for the expulsion of evil spirits. Willow is the same in the Hebrew canon as in the European. For the European holly oak, the kerm oak is substituted. The substitute for the hazel was the almond: this was the tree from which Aaron took his magic rod, and the Menorah, the seven-branched candlestick in the Temple Sanctuary at Jerusalem, had its sconces in the form of almonds and represented Aaron’s rod when it budded. It was this branch that Jeremiah (Jeremiah I, 11) was shown as a visionary token that God had granted him prophetic wisdom. The sconces stood for the seven heavenly bodies of the week, and the central sconce was the fourth, namely that dedicated to Wisdom, which gives its name to all the rest; its branch formed on the shaft of the candlestick. For the European oak, the terebinth sacred to Abraham was substituted. For the apple, the quince. For the alder, since it was banned from Temple worship, the pomegranate, which supplies a red dye as the alder does. The pomegranate was Saul’s sacred tree, and sacred to Rimmon, a name for Adonis from whose blood it is said to have sprung. Also, the Paschal victim was traditionally spitted on pomegranate wood. The pomegranate was the only fruit allowed into the Holy of Holies – miniature pomegranates were sewn on the High Priest’s robes when he made his yearly entry. Since the seventh day was sacred to Jehovah, and Jehovah was a form of Bran (Saturn), or Ninnib, everything points to the pomegranate as the tree of the seventh day. The rabbinical gloss on the pomegranate is that it owes its sacred reputation to being the only fruit that worms never corrupt.’
Graves writes in The White Goddess:
‘Sunday’s original letter was not B for broom or birch, but H, tree of Light, of which the Hebrew tree, corresponding with the hawthorn, was the sant, or wild acacia, the sort with golden flowers and sharp thorns, better known to readers of the Bible as ‘shittim’-wood, i.e., from Cyprus. It was from its water-proof timber that the arks of the Sun-hero Osiris and his counterparts Noah and Armenian Xisuthros were built; also the Ark of the Covenant, the recorded measurements of which proved to be sacred to the Sun. This is the host-tree of mistletoe-like loranthus, Jehovah’s oracular ‘burning bush’, and the source of manna.
‘Creation being originally understood in terms of procreation, not fabrication, its central figure was a matriarch and its prime mystery motherhood. Thus in Greek myth, Eurynome, Goddess of all things, rose naked from Chaos, divided sea from sky, danced upon the waves, stirred up the wind, was impregnated by it in the shape of a great serpent named Ophion, and laid the World Egg. A similar story is told in the Orphic Fragments 60, 61, 70, and 89. Night, the Creatrix, lays a silver egg from which Love is hatched to set the Universe in motion. Night lives in a cave, displaying herself in triad as Night, Order, and Justice.
‘For many centuries, Jewish and Christian theologians agreed that the accounts of the world’s origin given in Genesis was not only inspired by God, but owed nothing to any other scriptures. This extreme view has now been abandoned by all but fundamentalists. Since 1876, several versions of Akkadian (that is, Babylonian and Assyrian) Creation Epics have been excavated and published. The longest of these, known as Enuma Elish form its original two words – which mean ‘when on high’ – is assumed to have been written in the early part of the second millennium BC. It has survived almost complete on seven cuneiform tablets containing an average of 156 lines apiece.
‘The Enuma Elish and other documents show that a clear correspondence exists between the canon of trees of the week outlined above and the Seven Days of Creation as characterized in the first chapter of Genesis. It may be summarized as follows:
Sun: Sunday. Broom. Light.
Moon. Monday. Willow. Division of Waters.
Mars. Tuesday. Kerm oak. Dry land, Pasture, and Trees.
Mercury. Wednesday. Almond. Heavenly bodies and the Seasons.
Jupiter. Thursday. Terebinth. Sea-beasts and Birds.
Venus. Friday. Quince. Land-beasts, Man and Woman.
Saturn. Saturday. Pomegranate. Repose.
Graves and Patai write in Hebrew Myths:
‘The apparent illogic of the creation of Light, and of Pasture and Trees, before that of the Heavenly bodies and the Seasons is accounted for by the powers proper to the deities who rule over the planetary days of the week. The sun-god rules over Light, the Moon over Water, Mars over Pasture and Trees, and Mercury is the God of Astronomy. Clearly the Genesis legend is subsequent to the fixing of the canon of the planets, days, and gods. The allocation of Birds and Sea-beasts to the fifth day is natural, because the god of the oak or terebinth cult is, in general, the son of the Sea-goddess to whom the Dove, the Eagle, and all other birds are sacred, and himself takes the form of a sea-beast. The order to man and woman to couple and produce their kind, like the creatures over which they have dominion, is appropriate to the day of Venus. The pleasant sloth of Saturn – in whose golden day, according to the classical poets, men ate honey and acorns in a Terrestrial Paradise and did not trouble to till the soil, or even to hunt, since the Earth brought forth abundantly of her own bounty – explains the seventh day as one of repose. The Jewish apocalyptic prophesy (which Jesus took literally) of the Heavenly Kingdom of Jehovah referred to a restoration of this same golden age if only man would cease to busy himself with wars and labours; for Jehovah required rest on the seventh day – the original significance of the Sabbath.
‘It is of the highest theological importance that Jehovah announced himself to Moses as ‘I am that I am’ or more literally ‘I am whoever I choose to be’ from the acacia rather than any other tree, because this constituted a definition of his godhead. Had he announced himself from the terebinth, as the earlier Jehovah had done at Hebron, this would have been to reveal himself as Bel or Marduk, the God of Thursday and of the seventh month, the Aramean Jupiter, the Paeonian Apollo. But from the acacia, the tree of the first day of the week, he revealed himself as the God of the Menorah, the transcendental Celestial God, the God who presently said: ‘Thou shalt have no other gods but Me… for I the Lord thy God is a jealous God.’ The acacia is, indeed, a thorny, jealous, self-sufficient tree, which needs little water, and, like Odin’s ash, strangles with its roots all other trees growing near it. Uath, the month dedicated to the acacia, was the one in which the annual Hebron Fair took place, and so holy that all sexual congress and self-beautification was tabooed during it: it was the month in which the annual purification of the temples in Greece, Italy, and the Near East commenced.’
The extraordinary care taken over the appropriate application of poetic language in the Hebrew Ritual Law is revealed when Robert Graves shows that the Ten Commandments has also been integrated into the canons discussed above, in terms of the Chanuka, the eight-branched candlestick that replaced the seventh-branched Menorah once the Celestial, transcendental God of the Logos had been formulated. Graves writes in The White Goddess:
‘The Ten Commandments, which are among the latest additions to the Pentateuch, are designed as glosses on the same mystery. The oddness of their choice seems to have struck Jesus when he quoted the ‘Love thy God’ and ‘Love they Neighbour’ Commandments, from elsewhere in the Pentateuch, as transcending them in holiness. The Ten Commandments, which are really eight, not ten, designed to match the number of letters in the Holy Unspeakable Name of God, fall into two groups: one of three ‘Thou shalts’ concerned with the True Creation, and the other of five ‘Thou shalt nots’ concerned with the False Creation: each group is prefaced by a warning. The order is purposely ‘pied’, as one would expect, for reasons of security:
V: ‘Honour thy father and thy mother.’
i.e. JH: Life and the Brightness.
IV: ‘Observe the Sabbath Day.’
i.e. W: Peace.
I: ‘Thou shalt worship Me alone.’
i.e. H. Light.
Graves points out that the Christian Trinity of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit had its origins in the Ten Commandments, which constitute the essence of the Moral Law. Then he continues:
‘The second group corresponds with the powers of the five planets excluded from the Name and the warning preface is therefore II: ‘Thou shalt not make nor adore the simulacrum of any star, creature, or marine monster.’
X: ‘Thou shalt not bewitch’
(The Moon, as Goddess of Enchantment.)
VI: ‘Thou shalt not kill’
(Mars as the god of War.)
VIII: ‘Thou shalt not steal.
(Mercury, as the God of Thieves, who had stolen man from God.)
IX: ‘Thou shalt not bear false witness.’
(Jupiter as the false god before whom oaths were sworn.)
VII: ‘Thou shalt not commit adultery.’
(Venus as the Goddess of profane love.)

There are many reasons why powerful criminals wish to conceal the information given above from the general public. Foremost among those reasons is that they are constantly at work to reduce organized religion to an instrument of abuse that could advantage the hidden agenda of Global Organized Crime, which seeks to stage a global Muslim Revolution. The crime bosses wish to remove all morally intelligent elements from religious worship, and to retain only a mindless affirmation of the allegedly incomparable glory of the deity over which songs are sung, hands are clapped, and avowals are protestated with a violence that brooks no resistance. The name ‘Jesus’ will continue to be used in The West for a while, but ‘Allah’ will rapidly replace it once all efficient information with regard to religion has been removed from the reach of the lay public.
Another reason why criminals would wish to conceal efficient information with regard to religion from the public is that they wish to take advantage of the great damage done by academics such as Freud and Jung, whose hopeless lack of historical learning resulted in an extraordinary proliferation of phobias and neuroses with respect to human nature, the effects of which combined with many other alienating impulsions to generate the climate of aggression and mental ill-health that caused the most serious threats confronting the human race today. Mythology is a short-hand form of historical narrative of populations stricken by the effects of cataclysmic migrations, and struggling to adapt to a fundamental revolution in gender relations – not a collection of indicators of psychological maladies lurking in the soul, as if the human being is basically insane, having ultimately evolved on an arbitrary basis from savage animals. Religion cannot be separated from politics, which comprises the polemics engaged in by peoples vying for privileges and customs long observed for purposes of self-preservation – those typically generating conflicts of interest wherever displacements have involved significant numbers of people. It is clear from the material set out above that the patriarchal revolution must rate as constituting no less important an element of the process of modernization and the advancement of civilization than do scientific and economic developments.
In the matter under consideration here, the role of the cartel model of economics is instrumental. Being rooted in a holy dread of all forms of competition – the mark of a savage, ‘jealous’ deity, like the God of the acacia, despite its pretences to transcendental, Celestial status – and having developed an invincible arsenal of weapons of war with which to attack all resourceful moves, the cartels have learned to routinely wage war upon the human race – to strangle all saplings with their roots, smother all seedlings in their shade, and drive all life from their branches will their cruel thorns. The cartels are the driving force behind the withholding of essential information regarding gender relations in the matter of religion: they champion religious fundamentalism as but one element of a strategy that includes a matriarchal revolution, featuring an enormously powerful element of technologically enhanced witchcraft; the proliferation of Communism; sub-cultures flourishing through media violence; anarchy flourishing through political propaganda, and terrorism – thus to generate unexampled opportunities for exploitation by means of the heroin trade, child pornography, fraud, armed robbery, and an entirely novel order of unconventional warfare that wields a lethal combination of biological sciences, ICT surveillance techniques, interactive media, and personalized marketing as weapons of war. The entire global population is in effect retained at the level of a universal feudal fiefdom wallowing in the darkness and despair that characterize conditions of ignorance, poverty, bigotry, disease, and terror. The true purpose behind that crime against humanity is to ensure that socio-economic conditions around the globe may be continually exacerbated in order to help Global Organized Crime establish a totalitarian regime, by the effects of which it seeks to unconditionally and indefinitely dominate the world.
Several crucial matters pertaining to that state of contemporary affairs are entailed in the considerations emerging from the historical material above. All hinge upon the notion of criminality as misrule, particularly with respect to the usurpation of political power from governments by criminal elements covertly in control of the global mass media.
A cardinal element under that heading concerns the process of social engineering, a force now wielding greater power than ever before, the nature of which has grown malignant as a result of the rapid development of technology – and of a lack of perspective on the true character and motivation of human nature, which latter cause ultimately derives from the cataclysmic discontinuity effected by the pastoral invasions whose aftermath was briefly described above. The power of social engineering is today enhanced and extended by covert criminal elements obtaining advantage from the culture of secretiveness by which the bio-genetic techniques deployed by the security services for socio-economic purposes are effected.
The blood-thirsty temperament of the Goddess of love and battle, and the primitive conditions that characterized fundamental matriarchy, show that no clear-cut case can be made in favour of either patriarchy or matriarchy, and that the only feasible approach to the matter of gender relations lies in a categorical compromise on both sides, in the interests of reaching an optimally sustainable dispensation for human commerce.
If human development is to be presented to the public as having proceeded from a state of nature to one characterised by the life of a hunter-gatherer, a cave-dweller who routinely bludgeoned the first woman in sight and dragged her into a cave to be ravished, severe societal maladies must necessarily develop from the mendacity fostered by the process. Only tyrants terrified that people will discover freedoms in their own histories will seek to enforce such a barbarous view of human life on unsuspecting societies.
Also, the historical material is a reminder that the human race has for all eternity lived with a great variety of other animals, and with trees and plants that defined its characteristics through their interaction with its needs – and that the sudden divorce from the natural world, which transformed people into ferocious carnivores seeking to destroy everything that moves for personal profit, ironically threatens to plunge humanity back into a state of nature, into the cage of an arrested society – whose natural resources happen to have been severely depleted through the effects of its own mania during the phase in which it scorned nature as being beneath its contempt.
Most importantly, the historical material warns that the importance of preserving essential human nature became a central political concern only in the twentieth century – that, since the occurrence of the pastoral conquests, domination at all costs had been the overriding, primitive concern in most regions of the world at any particular time. The development of the God Jehovah – from the deity worshipped by primitive savages running with enormous herds of wild cattle over immeasurable distances, to the transcendental God of the Logos, to the regulating principle managed by the silent director of the Universe in terms of the rule of law in Space Age societies – clearly illustrates the difference between legitimate and illegitimate forms of control. The economic model has likewise comprehensively evolved over that period of time – from the charter of the raider and the robber baron to the concept of private enterprise in a free market in which price is set through the impersonal interaction of demand and supply, the optimal operation of which mechanism requires the unencumbered flow of efficient information. Yet barbarism continues obdurate in asserting the criminal mode of bloody pillage in our own day by means of the cartel economic model. Nor can the present global economic crisis be extricated from the effects of the assault on private enterprise by means of all the weapons listed here in collusion with the global mass media.
The key to resolving the dilemma of criminality as a political abuse of power lies in the realization that the economic impulse is not of a criminal nature; it is an intelligent response to the need to survive. The criminal element is rooted in the barbarous urge to dominate at all costs. That definition holds even where stealth and subterfuge serve as means to that end, rather than brute force – indeed, particularly so wherever that is the case, since basal brutishness is easily suppressed, but guile and calculation proceed undetected.
It is clear that close relationships with a wide range of animals, including snakes, mice, and many species of birds, fish, and insects, cannot have been the cause of imbalances in the human psyche: it was the unnatural association with one particular specie exclusively – cattle – that turned man’s wits. Cattle represent a state very near the human one in the general hierarchy of stations of spirit marshalled by the various species. Like humans, cattle are basically docile; they are easily domesticated. They are given to savage behaviour only where the king bulls of great herds exercise territorial imperatives, and where natural sexuality stimulates vehemence in accordance with metabolic cycles. Like humans, cattle spend most of their time ingesting food and lazily belching methane into the atmosphere. By way of another characteristic shared with humans – the great populousness of their societies – cattle exercised an extraordinary influence over humans at a time when mass movements became prevalent.
The point continually made in my writing is that the power of that influence was precipitated into a crisis when, as a result of continual migrations from Africa, through the Middle East, Europe, and into the Balkans and the Indo-European plains and beyond, conditions developed under which restless tribes became dislodged from the main bodies of the races with whom they associated, causing them to return to the areas from which they had moved many thousands of years into the past: the ancient settlements of western Europe and the Mediterranean. Those civilizations were overrun by vast hordes of cattle-herding nomads, bringing the Dark Ages over the Human Estate, before the Modern World was generated out of the febrile attempts to restore the balance that had characterized life before the occurrence of that millennial event.
The curse of modernism lies in the mixed temperament of the contemporary race, which ranges from gracious and noble to brutish and murderous – with no external labels warning of the contents of the package. A highly volatile chemistry is the inevitable result. That is why we, who seem so self-possessed and masterful with our science and technology, are doomed to the laborious writing of philosophy on how to avoid blowing ourselves up, or enslaving and brutalizing the meek with clever plans, or destroying our world through chronic environmental abuse.
Let the soap opera addict be placed on terms that he or she who is capable of jealousy presents with the disease of a primitive mind; the cause of the symptom may well be sought in the probability of having suffered from vicious upbringing under criminal parents – in which case fundamental education is required to remedy the condition. The superior being is not capable of jealousy.
The point of the argument with respect to the topic of contemporary criminality can now be made.
Attempts to secure domination for either the male or the female gender will not today result in proper advantage of any kind – neither for the majority of people in the democracies, nor for any particular global elite, such as the super-rich, or the highly educated, or the landed gentry. Domination by either one of the genders will exclusively benefit powerful concealed criminals who control affairs for their own benefit.
I have been at pains to demonstrate in the posts of this blog that unexampled levels of power are the order of the day in the contemporary world. Never before has the human person and the agencies that govern it been susceptible to such absolute control by other humans. The development of telemetric medical techniques, genetically engineered drugs, and the deployment of those powers in the exercise of management systems that now serve malignant purposes more often than benign ones, have redefined the concept of social engineering to the degree where it has enabled those in control of amenities of life, instruments of power, and determinants of wealth, to stage a bid for world domination for criminal purposes.
Gender relations are abused by elements that have no intrinsic interest in the matter, for the purpose of fomenting mass hysteria by means of media violence and equivocation, to catalyze herd momentum that must accomplish socio-economic changes to which well-informed people will never agree under normal circumstances. Muslim fundamentalism, Christian conformity, African Communism, militant feminism, witchcraft, German nationalist extremism, fanatic hatred for private enterprise, terrorism, heroin abuse, and, most successfully of all, Liberal Democracy as disguise for fascism and totalitarianism – all those convictions are mobilized today by powerful manipulators of the global mass media, and transformed into fearful vehicles for covert abuse, in a bid for world domination by the worst criminals who have ever lived.
In the process, many hundreds of millions of people are chronically deprived of access to efficient information: a clear sign that cartel economics, which attack all forms of economic competition, lie at the heart of the new barbarism, which is driven by highly sophisticated potentates who have enjoyed unencumbered access to the most extravagant privileges ever encountered on Earth.
That phenomenon results in unique levels of oppression on a broad base, driven by extraordinary orders of prejudice by the effects of which entire nations revert back to conditions of feudal fiefdoms or tribalism over vast regions, a social order characterized by abject mediocrity and stagnation.
Clear indications of the syndrome’s power have been the startling violence to which the British Royal Family has been subjected in the global mass media; the absurd contrast in media treatment meted out to the American President, who has taken a strong stand against terrorism, and that accorded to all manner of irrelevant celebrities, such as tennis stars, soccer stars, pop stars, movie stars, and the like; the acute embarrassment in which leaders of the Western democracies such as Mr. Bill Clinton and Mr. Tony Blair have been called upon to wallow; the antagonism invoked at the memory of historical leaders such as Baroness Thatcher and Winston Churchill; perpetual attacks on the national security of Israel, which resulted in consternation among those mindful of the real sources of human well-being – and a thousand other alarming incongruities.
In the past, the technique made famous by the Sumerian Biblical hero Samson, namely to plough with the bullocks of one’s enemies, had been confined to a manageable level. Now it is possible to deploy the tactic to a degree that threatens international relations, and plunges the entire human race into a cataclysmic process of degeneration. The difference derives from the capability for fundamental, comprehensive deception by organizations and nations held in the highest regard by the majority of the world’s people, as a result of pro-active propaganda insidiously deployed, day in and day out, month in and month out, decade in and decade out – a strategy of war requiring the highest possible level of calculation in planning, and of deliberateness in execution.
Not wishing to precipitate any witch-hunt in a matter of such great significance, I nevertheless feel called upon to comment on a difference of approach to strategy that could be generalized as characteristic of opposed cultures. In The Art of War, the famous study by the great Chinese strategist Sun Tsu, one passage is devoted to urging generals to unwaveringly maintain a regime of absolute secrecy, thus to keep their soldiers mystified at all times, in effect generating loyalty through the dependency resulting from lack of orientation. Field Marshall Mountbatten, by contrast, advocated that all soldiers know at all times precisely how their discrete tasks will fit into the greater scheme of things, and know how they could contribute to success at their limited levels in the hierarchy.
One cannot help wondering how Oriental generals who would systematically mystify their troops would have responded to the situation faced by General Norman Schwarzkopf, of which Dr. John C. Maxwell writes in his book 21 Indispensable Qualities of a Leader (page 135).
During the Vietnam War, General Schwarzkopf once found that he had led his battalion into a lethal minefield. One man was blown up; his leg had been shattered. He lay flailing about and screaming in terror and pain. Schwarzkopf realized that the soldier could be saved, and that his leg could be saved, but only if he could be reached and calmed until support arrived. He had to go after the man to immobilize him. Schwarzkopf wrote:
‘I started down the minefield, one slow step at a time, staring at the ground, looking for tell-tale little bumps or little prongs sticking up from the dirt. My knees were shaking so hard that each time I took a step I had to grab my leg and steady it with both hands before I could take another… It seemed like a thousand years before I reached the kid.’
John C. Maxwell concludes the section:
‘The 240-pound Schwarzkopf, who had been a wrestler at West point, pinned the wounded man and calmed him down. It saved his life. And with the help of an engineer team, Schwarzkopf got him and the others out of the minefield.’
There is no substitute for trust. Those who value trust know that people who scorn it do not deserve to unconditionally prevail over the entire human race. Those who would rule need to do so for the right reasons. All the rest is slavery.
Enthusiasts of the work of Sun Tsu, Machiavelli, St. Ignatius de Loyola, and of other strategists – except those who work with fair competition in a market economy – might find cause to appreciate that there are times when victory constitutes the worst possible defeat. What you do to others you do to yourself.
