Isaiah 14:24 'The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:'
I should speculate that Iraqi oil fields worth perhaps a trillion dollars if not given to private ownership by Iraqi citizens will be the incentive for terrorist takeover the next seven years, and Americans will need to defend a qausi (public perception) possible puppet government or experience probably tripling of oil prices if Persian Gulf and Saudi oil fields are cutoff during fundamentalist Islamic revolutions.
The administration fails to comprehend the nature of revolutions perhaps...especially in the middle east.
... Revolutions were described interestingly in a book called the General Crisis of the 17th century. Revolutions mean different things to different people sometimes. Sometimes 'revoltionaries' aren't, but may be for example restorationists or whatever trying to turn back history to sdome hypothetical 'golden age'.
The United States should urge privatization of Iraqi oil fields with ther egovernment keeping 10% for financing. The U.S. oil companies will need to just hope that Iraqis decide to contract their services. French total or someone else may end up with the oil contracts otherwise, and oil may no longer be sold by OPEC in U.S. dollars. The Iraqi public needs a real reason to support the government, and th one unifying reason necessary is citizen ownership of the oil fields.
Democracy isn't historical for middle eastern nations besides Israel. Saddam Husein achieved a peaceful nation domesticly through absolute state terror-not an option for a democracy. A unified reason needs to exist for these people closer to the European 16th century politically than the 20th to select democracy and combat rule of the strongest. Oil ownership is fundamentally the right medium for broad popular support in Iraq of a government able to bridge sectarian and revisionist traits of rule through prowess in treachery.
Some middle eastern nations won't want a democracy in Iraq; theocracies and monarchies for instance. If the U.S. administration talks loud enough in support of popular stock issue for the trillion dollar Iraqi oil fields perhaps just 70,000 troops would be needed in 2008.
If the U.S. unilaterally withdraws quickly chaos in the region may follow, and U.S. troops should need to defend Kurdistan from an unitended U.S. policy for a recrudessent Ottoman Empire in Kurdistan, and troops in Saudi to defend the royalty from revolutionary Arab restorationists of populist theocracy while oil prices may reach 300 dollars per barrel briefy.
In the U.S. Congress the deadbeats need to pass an alternative energy bill right away and send it to the President. The bill should strongly support home energy production through fuel cell, wind and solar power, and innovate incentives and support for alternative energy and transport development. The U.S.A. is heading down the Toynbean road to collapse, and perhaps it can't be reversed in the broadcast media corruption of politics era. Its worth a try perhaps to try to innovate good congressional ideation/support for, and rectify the daft financial tendencies and foreign policy of the Bush administration.
Why can't some mass innoculations in some poor regions be done by engineer'd mosquitoes?

Democrats; Kick Alt Fuel into Legislature Net
Democrats; Kick the ball into the net! (Yet don't do anything depraved)
Tuesday 30 of January, 2007
Democrats in congress the purpose of the game is to kick the ball into the net past the goalie (President Bush). It won't take a Beckham sort of English(spin) to accomplish it. You are right in front of the goal outnumbering the goalie's pol;itical ability to veto..don't just kick it back to midfield and stall.I will even point out what the important political ball is that you have in front of the net...it is alternate fuel and transport legislation.
Reliance upon oil for U.S. transportation is the basis of all evil in American economics, and to fail to address that issue of American reliance on an early 20th century fuel that is causing incredible deficits and jeopardizing U.S. independence besides being the main cause of the administration’s unwillingness to support real democracy in Iraq (more about that later) avoids meaningful legislation.
The Iraqi oil fields may be the largest remaining in the world worth more than a trillion dollars. The only right solution to the Iraq problem is to publicly urge that the oil fields be privatized and distributed to all Iraqi citizens in equal shares of a public corporation. The oil is the real recruiting incentive for puppet governments there, and for terrorism and so forth. The actions of the United States that subvert the social structure of Muslim or Arab traditional patriarchal and fratricidal society seeking to replace it with a feminism is another issue entirely.The congress should develop wind, solar and fuel cell power incentives domestically to get Americans to provide their own fuel instead of outsourcing their future to foreign corporations and sometimes inimical economies abroad. The congress should immediately create a M.I.T.I. like federal economic policy board to study and attack current accounts generating deficits by creating new U.S. green and high tech business research, development and manufacturing.
Even the Alaska State legislature could get on board and provide a small part of its oil revenues for Wind farms in S.E. Alaska communities such as Wrangell to generate independent local electricity for municipal use and also to create hydrogen fuel.
A Better Strategy to Defeat Administration Bungling in Rebuilding Iraq
The effort to support nation rebuilding in Iraq is grimly serious and costing thousands of American and Iraqi lives. The bungling administration took a well designed military victory with the implicit prospect for success in rebuilding a nation with democratic aegis and bungled the moment. The administration willingness to spend public funds on war that trickles down profits (flummery) to special interest contractors in oil and defense related industries does not extend to non-defense civilian infrastructure investments that could have supported better prospects for successful national development in Iraq. The administration’s scrooge like character of spending on non-military alternative fuels, wind, solar, fuel cell, paving solar voltaic research and independent local economic research, development and manufacturing budgets is dismal. The administration seems only wiling to invest in fifty years profit plans for oil companies that pay no royalties to the public treasury, instead plundering national resources like covert economic guerrilla operatives subverting in plain sight of a somnolent media purchased by global corporations. Was it possible in 2003 to know that the administration would be so unprepared to follow up and instead would create such conditions as to allow a werewolf resistance movement to form an insurgency that would cause far more casualties than the 2003 war?
I will use a smidgen of sarcasm in this brief comment on the alternatives to continued incompetence that forces damaging casualties in Iraq and economic harm to both the Iraqi and U.S. economies. Achieving a peaceful and satisfactory resolution of political events in this phase of history of Iraqi history requires U.S. leadership willing to request that Iraqi’s own their own oil fields privately, equally and democratically.
One might ask if society reelects indignant leadership (2004) unwilling to support an actual and not just an apparent democracy in Iraq that may be publicly perceived as a puppet government, it deserves a continued descent in it’s own nation away from a democratic government and downward unto royal family dynasticism in support of global investment and the comparative decay of the national manufacturing sector and border security. All the very rich want of course is for Americans to hush up about millions of cheap laborer’s flooding in to subvert unionization or any sort of undesirable economic or political tendencies on the management/labor scale. Aristotle wrote in the politics that democracies collapse into tyrannies perhaps in a similar way that free radicals or unbound particles in atomic orbits are unusual and unstable and certain bound states the norm without unusual force acting upon the nucleus. Democracies are phenomenal and tyrants while tyrants and other undemocratic elements prefer to bind social order into changeless and exploitable submission disregarding most social concerns about ‘improvement’ of environmental and political prospects. The sole necessity for political tyranny is to control of public expression and opinion and to liquidate dissent and rival political wills to shape social destiny in other than the tyrant’s preferred direction.
I haven’t earlier had a chance to respond to the President’s bone-headed notion that his present Iraq policy is a good one. It is a lame-duck effort to secure oil field contracts for favorite hydrocarbon services and supply corporations. Liberating Iraq in 2003 was a moral policy; willfully bungling the rebuilding of Iraqi security is not.Some would debate the definition of what a war is and if the war after the 2003 war ended is a war at all. I won’t quibble though the broadcast media is owed an argument, and will provide a better, cheaper way to win the war in Iraq below.
The winning war strategy in Iraq is beyond the intellectual grasp of the Bush administration, while the inherent conflict of interest in oil related businesses the President has mires his limited creativity political problem solving in a crude slop-pit of a quag.
Right off I wish the President’s battle of the fiscal bulge to get oil contracts and to become guardian angels for the Iraqis of Terrorized City success. If he had trained three brigades in BlackOp counter-intelligence special forces operations instead and maybe got Vladimir Putin to send some Spetznatz and former K.G.B. trainers instead to create a sort of mini-second directorate able to work with Iraqi co-horts maybe they would have had a better chance of success than mal-adapted Army and Marines sent to be targets of opportunity as bomb locating device counterparts to I.E.D.’s and suicide bombers.Oh well good luck General Petraeus, even Caesar in the battle for Alexandria had a better idea of the nature of war than the non-combat experienced administration leadership perhaps…if only Bob Dole had been elected in 1994 instead…
President Bush has challenged anyone to provide a better plan than his, implying in probable error that his plan has merit and this is a response providing some detail and analytical commentary regarding aspects of my better plan. I have previously published elements of this alternative plan that seem to have goon unnoticed I must say. It is better than the Von Bush plan.
First a few observations about the political complex of compresence of Iraq that reveal the fundamental unsoundness of administration policy.Iran and Syria aren’t short term regional phenomenalities and are unlikely to provide any political support to administration Iraqi policy in the near term. Implementation of policies in support of administration goals in Iraq would perhaps be beyond the ability of an Iranian or Syrian government to accomplish in the short term even if such possibly inimical objectives were made policies of those governments the President has declared as the drive wheels on the axis of evil.Administration energy policy is implicitly inimical to and counterproductive on its efforts to attain a secure Iraq. Pursuit of Iraq oil field contracts worth perhaps one trillion dollars to support globalist corporate oil profits and fleets of SUVs in the U.S.A. denigrate alternative energy development in the U.S.A. with the collateral promotion of nuclear power globally as the primary non-hydrocarbon energy source instead of green fuels. Iran of course is developing a nuclear energy infrastructure that may destabilize Middle Eastern prospect for peace in the long run, and it is supported by Russian and French corporate suppliers in developing its nuclear capability.Iran has perhaps misevaluated the role nuclear power can play in war and peace, especially at the crossroads of potential nuclear crossfire from Europe, Russia and the U.S.A. in event of any escalated nuclear war crisis, and in the degree of danger destruction of operating nuclear plants present to civilian population nearby and downwind as well as the costs required to contain simple nuclear power plant meltdowns, yet Iran is not alone in that regard. Most nuclear plants on Earth today probably haven’t a failsafe capacity to automatically safely mothball themselves if some plague were to incapacitate plant operators globally. The world might well instead experience universal nuclear plant meltdowns.
Administration policy seems to make an implicit assumption that in six months or a year or two essential social and political facts may change to such an extent that terrorism might be controlled and minimized in Iraq while history seems to indicate the opposite.
The intafada in West Bank territories went on for years with a very better match and knowledgeable Israeli military and intelligence infrastructure barely able to contain the crisis allowing in just several Hamas bombs and bombers now and then into the heart of the nation. The Shi’a, Sunni and numerous other interests from within and without Iraq have ample explosives ordinance and personnel to continue devastating attacks on defenseless civilians in Iraq for decades like as not. If one considers the difficulty the British military and intelligence as well as the Ulster police forces had in containing I.R.A. terrorism in Northern Ireland and extrapolates to the more variegated political and geographical tactical facts of Iraq the prospects for immediate political stabilization of Iraq including the elimination of explosions amidst civilians becomes less than optimal.
The Iraqi oil fields are believed to be the largest remaining on Earth, possibly greater than the Saudi fields that may have already reached peak production capacity. The prize of political control of the vast oil wealth of Iraq is the best lure to subordinate political followers to an effort to war political conquest.
In the United States unfortunately both major political parties place governors on their truth capacity that prevent recognition of the facts of oil and its relationship to declining North Sea and American oil fields.
Terrorism to dominate Iraqi politics isn’t likely to stop in the next year or two, neither is the U.S. free to withdraw military forces quickly for several tactical reasons that include;
1)Future distrust of U.S. political trustworthiness
2)Forming world opinions that the United States may start rational economic policies.
3)Exclusion from Iraqi oil field contracts through a puppet government in Iraq (the world perhaps believes that what it is).
4)High stakes mid-east craps shooting with international political developments of a dangerous yet possibly interesting complexity
5)A slump in Texas and red state war industries and good paying employment in war industries that are the best left since the end of most blue collar U.S. jobs and the crash of Ford Motor. Excluding oil, manufacturing is just 9% of the U.S. economy now while financial services has risen to about 30% If America runs from Iraq the world may believe Americans are living on loans spendthrift wimps with easy scamming incomes letting the Chinese to the production and the illegal aliens Mexicans do the construction.
6)The U.S. economy may crash if oil prices reach 300 dollars a barrel in some Mideast war scenario.
7)The wealthy may need to force a depression to break alternative fuel development and transportation, snuff support for environmental politically, and gut support for environmental technology start up businesses.
Because the Iraqi people have no certain political victors and the dynamics of group cohesiveness perhaps the best chance of not becoming a target for liquidation, radical political party structures in Iraq may remain the most likely way of organization with the least chance of reconciliation politically. There is one way to get the 1.5 million Iraqi refugees to return and to gain popular support for an Iraqi Government; support an actual democracy in Iraq and issue each citizen in Iraq a one-time stock issuance of Iraqi Oil fields. Every Iraqi citizen would receive an equal number of shares of all of Iraq’s oil, while the government would keep 10% for public financing.While the oil fields of Iraq are not owned by the people, for the people as privately owned shares the oil field control incentive will be the underlying destabilizing financial agent in the region. Alternatively with private ownership by the citizens of Iraq of their oil fields the credibility the United States could receive in the world and in Iraq would rise while the United States would still have a fair opportunity to let its corporations such as Exxon and Halliburton purchase oil or provide oil field services. Obviously the United States in relying upon oil for domestic transportation energy supply is doing tremendous financial harm to itself and reducing its role in global leadership steadily falling below the horizon of progress and becoming a military servo-unit of globalist corporatism.
In the United States fuel cells, wind and solazçµõwerçõÃÃÃÃeçÃÃÃÃÃÃÃÃsyÃÃÃÃÃed by federal and state laws to give homeowners and automobile producers cause to make their own power and develop non-fossil fuel driven electric vehicles.One may stop to consider the actual present posture of both political parties in the debate about the President’s deployment of more military forces to Iraq; does either party have it’s sail up and moving the ship of state forward or are they scattered across the water and the officers acting as if they were under the influence of argo or mold hallucinogenics from moldy bread doing the St. Vitas dance?Is the present level of American military investment in Iraq sustainable over several years if the Iraqi terrorists do not behave and just keep it up? I would think the answer is no. Yet the Bush administration (43) is the most financially spendthrift in world history and it seems the President’s allotted role in life to spend other peoples money like a drunken sailor. The political reaction to that fact judging by his reelection in 2004 is ho hum. Deficit spending is a private and public way of life in a decadent nation losing its creativity and becoming a skimmer of other people’s money.
The perennial war in Iraq isn’t perhaps on a sustainable basis. A cynic might wonder if perennial wars shouldn’t be financially sustainable instead. The President answered that question in his state of the Union address by saying that he has a plan to balance the federal budget three years after he leaves office. Good plan Mr. President, kowibunga dudes.
If the financing of a protracted civil conflict in Iraq is not realistic, then the alternative might seem to be withdrawing from Iraq in some scaled down pace to allow the maximum degree of international contempt for American foreign policy to develop while simultaneously allowing a jockeying for position of political power after the U.S. retires it’s military personnel from the conflict to build up. Terrorism could increase in that time with the prospects for increased oil supplies available to the United States decreasing. Abrupt withdrawal of U.S. forces is the third obvious alternative with the probable consequences of sundry wars locally and regionally suitable best for global media telecasting if it’s not an Olympic year.
President Bush’s bulging surge of military forces this year of some 21,000 calls for a bit more analysis. It may work just as he hopes; in six months the terrorists will flee, turning in their explosives in handy e.o.d. amnesty bins on the way to Syrian and Iranian borders were well planned military ‘nets’ will capture them and bring them back to Baghdad for a good hanging.
On the subject of the hangings of Saddam Hussain and his deputies I must comment that competent hang persons test drop a bagged weight equal to that of persons being hanged first and adjust the length of the rope to control the drop distance in order that the hangees neck may be broken with sufficient drop yet the head not torn off from to much combine drop distance and weight; quite an unprofessional hanging Baghdad. Practice makes perfect however, and if politicians in D.C. had a guillotine in their own red square or in their pagan statues district I’m sure they might watch the budget, borders and manufacturing a better.
Seriously though, the U.S. Government may be a whore of Babylon sold out to the corporatist set creating a batter collapse of democracy into tyranny with velvet cages until a cheaper hair shirt cage is available so the prospects for getting anyone in congress or the White House simply to publicly announce support for privatization of Iraqi oilfields is as unlikely as building a dirt and concrete Hadrian’s Wall of border security along California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas.The U.S. Congress with a democratic majority has so far shown its flip side of the coin lackeys character since taking control. With the ball unchallenged in front of the goal they don’t even have an idea that the purpose of the sport is to kick the legislative ball into the net. With President Bush being the opfor goalie the job shouldn’t be very difficult. Not requiring a Pele` style upside down flying back kick or a Beckham hyper-English deceit-o-boot or anything.
Two years of Democratic control and the losers will just play ball control even if they have a power play opportunity keeping the legislation somewhere around midfield hoping to let the game clock expire.
Probably they really want some x-rated depravity legislation, or to give federal funding to abort some embryos and making non-binding resolutions about the war will help take up the time and help the President balance the budget by 2011. In the meantime Democrats the ball to kick past the President into the net is alternative energy policy. Yes it’s that simply. A policy that can’t be reversed by the next Republican congress or President.
The policy should build up home power production to charge electric cars, make hydrogen pumps at local municipal, state and federal government vehicle fueling stations attractive and available to the public with contracts for operating and supplying the hydrogen going to private contractors, research funds for making all American highways with a lot of annual sunshine photon collecting electrical energy conducting surfaces into local grids and so forth. I have written about alternate energy policy elsewhere as have innumerable others. Now its time to act on it democrats and pass the bill. The President would need to be virtually a traitor to veto an honest energy reform bill from some points of view. Fossil fueled federal deficits are rupturing the United States, and so is a daft Democratic party (stay away from the depravity legislation partiers).
On the final plan B alternative wash our hands of the problem strategy for solving the problem of Iraqi military expense and casualties (the tripartite federal segregation plan) I will make these few comments.Since the conflict in Iraq presently may not be simply of a sectarian civil war nature (this gets somewhat more complicated and thus tedious for politicians, yet stay with it for a while more), but is of a financial nature for the control of oil, and for other causes including social alterity (change) of a radical nature from the west that is perceived as being forced in, and of other causes that I may or may not mention here, the tripartite separation into Kurdish, Shia and Sunni states may not end the troubles of terrorism in the region, nor end the possibility that each or all of the federated or not new states may harbor terrorists fomenting attacks on U.S. oil fields, U.S. federal debts, the treasure of the United States, Congress, The White House, Chicago, Detroit, Minneapolis or Bubba’s bar. Three states instead of one may reduce immediate sectarian battles locally yet provide little assurance that mainly politicians friendly to American interests will not let terrorists reside in their countries. Terrorists may also conduct over-the-border raids of terror and job hunting in the goal to subvert the security and independence of the neighboring country causing its people restiveness as they seek to overthrow their on incompetent rulers. Three nations instead of one would still be targets for all of the machinations of oil intrigues, sectarian, reformist and conservative politics that have laid dormant bubbling under-the-surface in extreme repression for decades or centuries in some instances.
Three nations is a prima facie good idea. Consider that Toynbee noted that religious oppression or religion replacement from the top from foreign rulers are resisted more than any other thing that stimulates resistance in a conquered nation. The patristic social order of Iraq is also subject to radical restructuring even following Saddam Hussain’s bath party displacement of Iraqi male roles in the family brought a feminine loyalty to the fascist state sociologically. As normal Arab male dominated society attempts a return after the fall of the Bath Party the west seeks to emasculate the traditional Arab family once again and dissolve it with birth control pills, Nair and blind allegiance to global corporatism without a male authority figure. In a sense the terrorists of Muslim fundamentalism are fighting for their manhood against western forces of feminist dependence on global corporatism that impose a tyrannical collapse upon democracy and individualism. These guys in the Middle East may keep detonating themselves for some time, or detonating others, in the complex tangled bank of sociological factors stimulating a troubled sleep in the hypothetical dream world of American current account and federal deficits.
Extremism in American politics and Middle Eastern politics are undesirable and harmful to the environment. Even so the Democratic Party must learn to kick the ball into the net when they have a chance instead of just mugging for the cameras.

In the United States fuel cells, wind and solazçµõwerçõÃÃÃÃeçÃÃÃÃÃÃÃÃsyÃÃÃÃÃed by federal and state laws to give homeowners and automobile producers cause to make their own power and develop non-fossil fuel driven electric vehicles.One may stop to consider the actual present posture of both political parties in the debate about the President’s deployment of more military forces to Iraq; does either party have it’s sail up and moving the ship of state forward or are they scattered across the water and the officers acting as if they were under the influence of argo or mold hallucinogenics from moldy bread doing the St. Vitas dance?Is the present level of American military investment in Iraq sustainable over several years if the Iraqi terrorists do not behave and just keep it up? I would think the answer is no. Yet the Bush administration (43) is the most financially spendthrift in world history and it seems the President’s allotted role in life to spend other peoples money like a drunken sailor. The political reaction to that fact judging by his reelection in 2004 is ho hum. Deficit spending is a private and public way of life in a decadent nation losing its creativity and becoming a skimmer of other people’s money.
The perennial war in Iraq isn’t perhaps on a sustainable basis. A cynic might wonder if perennial wars shouldn’t be financially sustainable instead. The President answered that question in his state of the Union address by saying that he has a plan to balance the federal budget three years after he leaves office. Good plan Mr. President, kowibunga dudes.
If the financing of a protracted civil conflict in Iraq is not realistic, then the alternative might seem to be withdrawing from Iraq in some scaled down pace to allow the maximum degree of international contempt for American foreign policy to develop while simultaneously allowing a jockeying for position of political power after the U.S. retires it’s military personnel from the conflict to build up. Terrorism could increase in that time with the prospects for increased oil supplies available to the United States decreasing. Abrupt withdrawal of U.S. forces is the third obvious alternative with the probable consequences of sundry wars locally and regionally suitable best for global media telecasting if it’s not an Olympic year.
President Bush’s bulging surge of military forces this year of some 21,000 calls for a bit more analysis. It may work just as he hopes; in six months the terrorists will flee, turning in their explosives in handy e.o.d. amnesty bins on the way to Syrian and Iranian borders were well planned military ‘nets’ will capture them and bring them back to Baghdad for a good hanging.
On the subject of the hangings of Saddam Hussain and his deputies I must comment that competent hang persons test drop a bagged weight equal to that of persons being hanged first and adjust the length of the rope to control the drop distance in order that the hangees neck may be broken with sufficient drop yet the head not torn off from to much combine drop distance and weight; quite an unprofessional hanging Baghdad. Practice makes perfect however, and if politicians in D.C. had a guillotine in their own red square or in their pagan statues district I’m sure they might watch the budget, borders and manufacturing a better.
Seriously though, the U.S. Government may be a whore of Babylon sold out to the corporatist set creating a batter collapse of democracy into tyranny with velvet cages until a cheaper hair shirt cage is available so the prospects for getting anyone in congress or the White House simply to publicly announce support for privatization of Iraqi oilfields is as unlikely as building a dirt and concrete Hadrian’s Wall of border security along California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas.The U.S. Congress with a democratic majority has so far shown its flip side of the coin lackeys character since taking control. With the ball unchallenged in front of the goal they don’t even have an idea that the purpose of the sport is to kick the legislative ball into the net. With President Bush being the opfor goalie the job shouldn’t be very difficult. Not requiring a Pele` style upside down flying back kick or a Beckham hyper-English deceit-o-boot or anything.
Two years of Democratic control and the losers will just play ball control even if they have a power play opportunity keeping the legislation somewhere around midfield hoping to let the game clock expire.
Probably they really want some x-rated depravity legislation, or to give federal funding to abort some embryos and making non-binding resolutions about the war will help take up the time and help the President balance the budget by 2011. In the meantime Democrats the ball to kick past the President into the net is alternative energy policy. Yes it’s that simply. A policy that can’t be reversed by the next Republican congress or President.
The policy should build up home power production to charge electric cars, make hydrogen pumps at local municipal, state and federal government vehicle fueling stations attractive and available to the public with contracts for operating and supplying the hydrogen going to private contractors, research funds for making all American highways with a lot of annual sunshine photon collecting electrical energy conducting surfaces into local grids and so forth. I have written about alternate energy policy elsewhere as have innumerable others. Now its time to act on it democrats and pass the bill. The President would need to be virtually a traitor to veto an honest energy reform bill from some points of view. Fossil fueled federal deficits are rupturing the United States, and so is a daft Democratic party (stay away from the depravity legislation partiers).
On the final plan B alternative wash our hands of the problem strategy for solving the problem of Iraqi military expense and casualties (the tripartite federal segregation plan) I will make these few comments.Since the conflict in Iraq presently may not be simply of a sectarian civil war nature (this gets somewhat more complicated and thus tedious for politicians, yet stay with it for a while more), but is of a financial nature for the control of oil, and for other causes including social alterity (change) of a radical nature from the west that is perceived as being forced in, and of other causes that I may or may not mention here, the tripartite separation into Kurdish, Shia and Sunni states may not end the troubles of terrorism in the region, nor end the possibility that each or all of the federated or not new states may harbor terrorists fomenting attacks on U.S. oil fields, U.S. federal debts, the treasure of the United States, Congress, The White House, Chicago, Detroit, Minneapolis or Bubba’s bar. Three states instead of one may reduce immediate sectarian battles locally yet provide little assurance that mainly politicians friendly to American interests will not let terrorists reside in their countries. Terrorists may also conduct over-the-border raids of terror and job hunting in the goal to subvert the security and independence of the neighboring country causing its people restiveness as they seek to overthrow their on incompetent rulers. Three nations instead of one would still be targets for all of the machinations of oil intrigues, sectarian, reformist and conservative politics that have laid dormant bubbling under-the-surface in extreme repression for decades or centuries in some instances.
Three nations is a prima facie good idea. Consider that Toynbee noted that religious oppression or religion replacement from the top from foreign rulers are resisted more than any other thing that stimulates resistance in a conquered nation. The patristic social order of Iraq is also subject to radical restructuring even following Saddam Hussain’s bath party displacement of Iraqi male roles in the family brought a feminine loyalty to the fascist state sociologically. As normal Arab male dominated society attempts a return after the fall of the Bath Party the west seeks to emasculate the traditional Arab family once again and dissolve it with birth control pills, Nair and blind allegiance to global corporatism without a male authority figure. In a sense the terrorists of Muslim fundamentalism are fighting for their manhood against western forces of feminist dependence on global corporatism that impose a tyrannical collapse upon democracy and individualism. These guys in the Middle East may keep detonating themselves for some time, or detonating others, in the complex tangled bank of sociological factors stimulating a troubled sleep in the hypothetical dream world of American current account and federal deficits.
Extremism in American politics and Middle Eastern politics are undesirable and harmful to the environment. Even so the Democratic Party must learn to kick the ball into the net when they have a chance instead of just mugging for the cameras.

Veteran's Day and Modern War Causality
Poltiical speeches and eloqution may belie intent. One recalls the film 'Scarface', I believe it was, in which Al Capone shed tears at the opera, yet clubbed later with the baseball bat...it is possible to act like Barrymore perhaps, or simply be moved rather witlessly at the story of courage and sacrifice, because one may have died for-oneself which is not so marvelous.
In the general war of the second of that of the world many millions died in the belief that they were defending democracy, or for certain ideals perhaps that they never read being illiterates largely, or never having been philosophers enough to read social philosophy or political theory.
Yet many brave souls perished even charging machine gun establishments with quick-fingered killers at Omaha beach and etc. Winston Churchill the designer of the British Sevastopol plan later was demoted to lead an infantry battalion in the trenches of out brave French allies that had somewhat more distrust of Generals than did the British under Haig. While Winston's plan to attack on an eastern front was good in general the timing and emplacement were wrong, and Haig weakened the Italian front with minimal supplies so it fell through.
Churchill did of course help to create the Second World War by asking a U.S. President to print more currency accelerating inflation and the economic collapses of 1929 and 1930 that reverberated around the world providing a suitable environment for fascist growth in Germany. Churchill wasn't to blame for the war of course, American policy at the end of WW I veritably enabled Germany to economically blitzkrieg toward WW II with all the finesse of a corrupt arbitrage trader, with the payoff being a military explosion of government ENRON polices; the U.S. Congress never guaranteed the peace of WW I to deter German aggression.
Today civil policies in the United States run on while the government effectively supports the best interests of foreign nations over the United States while running a vast federal debt up towards 10 trillion dollars and destroying the environment as best it can get away with through neglect, bad policy and a sort of obsessive-compulsive social leadership training for the masses based on mindless consumerism. Wars are devastating, but a precursor of wars are the mindless patriotism that allows a social inertia to follow 'leaders' of no ability or meaningful political values dedicated to enriching themselves and their class primarily...whatever class that may be. In saluting their leaders that extract superfluous pledges and expressions of loyalty to them as if the citizen's themselves hadn't equal or inalienable civil rights the 'leaders' flood the nation with cheap immigrant labor illegally, outsource good jobs abroad and let the nation's infrastructure decay compared to the rapid growth in China, India and elsewhere such as the Muhammedist nations.
While former generals pontificate on CNN and Foxx about the Muhammedist and terrorist enemies that require U.S. military power to overcome, a billion Muhammedists may listen to the constant mooning as if they live on another planet...at least the Europeans have a little sense, if not true Christian faith demographically.
The U.S. military may have a history of martial success occasionally, yet since the Vietnam war a continual transition into clandestine war and terrorism has developed globally that isn't suitable to conventional military remedies to restore a civilian level of peaceful society. Instead temporary martial law and extreme force troop deployments are considered, whereas the military should prepare for conventional wars supported by terrorism in computing, broadcast technology and suitcase nukes and sabotage of nuclear facilities and so forth. A Black Op force of 50,000 cadre members should be created for foreign unconventional anti-terrorist operations and ordinary soldiers returned with marines remaining abroad to support the SF Boppers.
... American military deployments are continuations of economic policy through other means in part, because of the subjective value judgments on strategic interests such as oil in the Persian Gulf that could be deleted by a serious alternative fuel and transport approach in the White House. The notion that obsessive-compulsive force applications will convert an adverse undereducated populace into supporting U.S. policy should have been comprehended to be a failure since the experience in Vietnam.
Certainly the Ottoman Empire was free to apply brutal force to occupy territory in another time, but that sort of wanton torture in support of a cruel autocracy is quite unwelcome today by supporters of democracy around the world such as actually exist outside of corporatist sycophancy.
It is important that Americans consider the value of keeping their nation as a nation at all in this era of mass illegal alien immigration and outsourcing with global corporate leadership and environmental decay. Some conflicts to end intractable obstacles to regional peace in violation of U.N. terms of cease fire may be compelling when mass civilian casualties are created indirectly as a circumstance of sanctions upon evil regimes, yet the broadcast media is for itself and accelerant to global conflicts today with its interminable, public and sensational approach to 'news stories' about war and international relations. Broadcast media are in effect anarchic terrorist agencies for themselves yet do reflect various obscure multinational corporate policy decisions.
With the global public internet era existing the broadcast wavelengths allotted in the United States should be set aside for public internet one or two way transmission freq.’s where technology can be adapted so everyone in the nation that is a citizen can have some 'broadcast' opportunity...as it is the broadcast use is similar to that of internet chat rooms dominated by a few creeps or perhaps limited to a few people exclusively...even if a lot of photos and commercials abound.
One should expect military conflicts not to become long slow drains (LSD's) on the national budget, environment or spiritual components of the populace. Political leadership in the United States should invest in high tech start ups and transitions that would increase any remaining American leadership in transportation and energy applications resurging beyond the anachronistic mud hole of the automobile and oil economic phenomenality engineered by Henry Ford's assembly line innovations early last century and the Rockefeller oil explorations.
Wars may often be a consequence of bad economic policy failing real politick success in any nation, and it is obvious that the United States is failing at environmental leadership because of the clear cutting of the Presidential Bully's pulpit for environmental purposes. Such recalcitrance renewed clear cutting of the Tongass Forest on federal lands in ignorance of the fragility of the old growth in a muskeg rich ecosystem requiring interlocking of trees and successive generations of natural sorting through life and death for health. Dirt based forests growth much more quickly-in just a few hundred years into natural old growth. The muskeg stands followed glacial retreats and thousands of years of moss build-up and wind blow-downs in acidic soil compositions.
While the global environmental health is in retreat the military for-itself and veterans that lost their lives or health for executive deployment decisions have on occasions made their sacrifices for dubious reasons. In ancient times the defense a nation or even the expanse of a nation were clear enough reasons to fight. Today soldiers must carry out unclear economic and political decisions into effect on occasion. Since that is so it is another compelling reason to sharpen and fine-tune the nation's economic and budget infrastructure a priori in order not to wade into the muck and blood, smoke and mirrors of war and sundry fragmentation devices for uncertain economic or social reasons.
It isn't popular today in this media driven politically obsessive-compulsive era with attacks on individual security from a variety of directions to question the thoughtless application of federal policy or alternatively of the mass left naked noumenal political left for-themselves subjectively deconstructed. Many distrust any sort of foreign military deployment, yet alternatively many support with blind allegiance corporate multinational policy enriching China and India and forcing the United States into federal debt with minimal personal savings brainwashed by raving media outlets.
A sober American Government must do much better at formulating foreign and domestic policy than it has since the end of the cold war, and the trusting military personnel that elect to serve deserve far better from a democratic government than they have received in the utilization of intelligence since the end of the cold war.

My Yahoo accounts disappeared overnight
"Tyrannies and dictatorships resort to violence when their authority is placed in jeopardy."-Khalil/Elect John Edwards 2008
I posted a comment a couple days ago that the Sect. of Defense should be criticized as a patriotic duty, so now subsequently my yahoo domain name, 360 account, geocities account, email and so forth have disappeared. I have had the account for 7 years I seem to remember and never had any problems. I will be happy to see Rummy go and corporatism with him and the Bush ilk some day, even if they weren't the perpetrators, or if it was accidental. Censorship is fascist even if communists or corporatists use it.
http://www.garygibson.us/ and http://www.geocities.com/gibson_gary/homepage.html were good old names that required a bit of time to construct.
Corporations and governments have so much advantage in sewing economic terror upon individual private enterprisers who must trust their 'integrety' and plainness not to do quick trick trims in the computer realm. It isn't always possible to read the fine print or not to inadvertantly break some rule in e-accounts, and it is imperative that years of html code programming, url acquisitions and such aren't simply deleated or deactivated and unaccessable interminably.
With the distrust of courrupt federal officials and NPR rampant nowdays it is even more important that Yahoo with its quick trim of geocities account index fiels bumped by a 360 index file without warning when a 360 account is opened (the original becoming a non-editable index.bak file) not make electronic on-line accounts black boxes of disappearing work consuming time to recover. If only the administration would disappear so quickly!
The minutemen are the only Americans I know of organized and willing to defend America's borders against illegal immigration (in there non violent way). Too many Americans are seeking to dissolve American values into globalist values and erase nationalism,individualism environmentalism and freedom from state control of religion.
Yet on the subject of how governments perpetrate terrorism on there own citizens in economic means, much can be written and has of course already. In the 17th century a general crisis occurred many historians believe, and some investigation has been done to consider if one did and what the phenomena was and causes of it were.
Niels Steensgaard wrote in a history anthology from 1997 about the costs of taxation, tithing, rent, seed and expenses and so forth to determine using Goubert's "estimates of a normal budget in Beauvaisis" to determine if it were possible for an ordinary farm family to avoid starving to death, and he determined that at least in the second part of the 17th century starvation was a real possibility.
Steensgaard went on to consider a thesis about a change in the philosophy of government and how it increased taxes to pay for wars, while today of course the federal government borrows money from abroad, enslaving future Americans for global control to finance its very costly protracted war. Americans aren't starving but they aren't paying for it either. A phillosophy of government crisis existed in the 17th century perhaps about how much the public sector could take from the private, and how the private sector responded was notable in avopiding taxation or commodity allocation controls that were not market optimalized.
Steensgaard apparently believed that the monarchies and other government factors and dampening effects of taxation and production location distribution (allocation) phenomenalities subject to government will destructively were more important than any real or imagined implicit class anatogonisms such as Marxists would later hypothesize. Gross interference with internet freedom to ciritcize government will assuredly be an optimal course for government intimidation of the private sector, and destruction of any better intelligence the private sector has to offer the public about the way public business should be done. This is a battle that has been fought by liberals since Jesus Christ led the fight at least.
Government terrorism through economic encroachment supported by corporatists favorites will reduce the world over the next 100 years to a simple non-dissentient harmonized global entropic stagnation pool subject to authoritarianist control. The United States will find itself overrun by illegal aliens, the government and global corporations controlling all mass economic directions, the environment deteriorated and internet liberty to criticize ineffective and corrupt government cut off through a variety of technical means without evident legal process.

Packing Infinite Dimensions Theologically
Packing Infinite Dimensions Theologically
A bird’s lifeless feathers arranged neatly upon a sidewalk
an apparitious being departed for the winter
forever like a moment of time
a soul is upon an island universe
Higher orders of dimensions packed haphazardly
seem ordered best within a chaotic jumble
twenty, thirty or fifty dimensions
wrapped into a theophany
best ordered by God
Time is the slowest, lowest dimension
thick like molasses to flow in the way of entropy
from the given initial orderun
to disorder.
-Gary G.
Reading through the Oct. 14th issue of science news an article on page 244 'Messiness Rules' suggested this poem attempting to comment upon how an infinite number of dimensions God can create would ultimately be ordered in a different than easy spatial arrangement.
Evidently energy, perhaps since the initial higgs field, was undifferentiated without regard to matter or anti-matter, and when the Higgs field of infinitely small size (absurb nominalism) became imbalanced it expanded at superluminal speed repulsed from itself.A Hubble Space Telescope Institute photo
In the current issue of Astronomy there is a good brief article on the surplus of matter over anti-matter that 'allowed' the universe to exist. Most of the material of the Universe is 'matter'. A CP imbalance or symmetry imbalance allowed a 1 in a billion particles surplus of mass or outnumber anti-mass or anti-matter after the formation of the universe and probably after the hyper-inflaton or superlight speed expansion stopped and 'normal' big bang inflation continued.
Anti-matter and matter are just the same, except that they have opposite tracks and spin characteristics. Perhaps for matter to be a whole, and of one nature, when it becomes divided it must split into equal yet opposite parts... I believe we discussed briefly the subject of how pluralism originates from monism.
The primal infinitesimal Higgs field may still exist interestingly enough and contain the entire universe and its general physical characteristics. I haven't any idea what happened to all the matter and anti-matter that existed early on...when it contacts it annihilates one another producing gamma rays...and I don't know what sort of 'particles' those are made of.
The article speculated that neutrinos and anti-neutrinos may be part of bound pairs that annihilate or rejoin undestrucively and in some way that could account for the CP disconformity, yet that may be true however not account for the surplus of matter over anti-matter.
It would seem philosophically that if there originally was a unified monistic field or energy then it would need to expand and annihilate some of its mass if there would to be a pluralist character in which human life upon planets within solar systems with stars and galaxies might exist eventually.
Gamma rays are quite deadly to bio-life I believe, and there formation isn't too common, nor is anti-matter, although the astronomy article had and anti-matter 'jet' toward the black hole at the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. What has this to do with extra-dimensional packing that mathematicians have been researching in the abstract one might ask...perhaps nothing for my knowledge, and something for others, yet at least it's interesting to consider.
In a finite set packing objects of definite size and shape characteristics related to a particular field probably would be done in a finite number of ways, while in a circumstance where the field characteristics increase to the infinite the number of ways of arranging or altering the arrangements also increases. The number of dimensions of a universe might describe implicitly the number of ways characteristics of various 'physical' particles and fields within it could exist in a stable state. Fortunately stable and transitional states for particles and waves of the universe change yet in relation to the pervasive field characteristics governing or describing there phenomenal characteristics.This universe exists with a hypothetical finite number of dimensions and particles within a pervasive and hypothetical field with a time direction based on the conservation of energy and laws of entropy with particles and configurations of waves and particles subject to uncertainty, subjective contingence and always to the Christian and Jews perhaps subject to the metaphysical will of God. The infinite characteristics of packing and selection deontologically reduced from some sort of monistic contingent origin is interesting.

thick like molasses to flow in the way of entropy
from the given initial orderun
to disorder.
-Gary G.
Reading through the Oct. 14th issue of science news an article on page 244 'Messiness Rules' suggested this poem attempting to comment upon how an infinite number of dimensions God can create would ultimately be ordered in a different than easy spatial arrangement.
Evidently energy, perhaps since the initial higgs field, was undifferentiated without regard to matter or anti-matter, and when the Higgs field of infinitely small size (absurb nominalism) became imbalanced it expanded at superluminal speed repulsed from itself.A Hubble Space Telescope Institute photo
In the current issue of Astronomy there is a good brief article on the surplus of matter over anti-matter that 'allowed' the universe to exist. Most of the material of the Universe is 'matter'. A CP imbalance or symmetry imbalance allowed a 1 in a billion particles surplus of mass or outnumber anti-mass or anti-matter after the formation of the universe and probably after the hyper-inflaton or superlight speed expansion stopped and 'normal' big bang inflation continued.
Anti-matter and matter are just the same, except that they have opposite tracks and spin characteristics. Perhaps for matter to be a whole, and of one nature, when it becomes divided it must split into equal yet opposite parts... I believe we discussed briefly the subject of how pluralism originates from monism.
The primal infinitesimal Higgs field may still exist interestingly enough and contain the entire universe and its general physical characteristics. I haven't any idea what happened to all the matter and anti-matter that existed early on...when it contacts it annihilates one another producing gamma rays...and I don't know what sort of 'particles' those are made of.
The article speculated that neutrinos and anti-neutrinos may be part of bound pairs that annihilate or rejoin undestrucively and in some way that could account for the CP disconformity, yet that may be true however not account for the surplus of matter over anti-matter.
It would seem philosophically that if there originally was a unified monistic field or energy then it would need to expand and annihilate some of its mass if there would to be a pluralist character in which human life upon planets within solar systems with stars and galaxies might exist eventually.
Gamma rays are quite deadly to bio-life I believe, and there formation isn't too common, nor is anti-matter, although the astronomy article had and anti-matter 'jet' toward the black hole at the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. What has this to do with extra-dimensional packing that mathematicians have been researching in the abstract one might ask...perhaps nothing for my knowledge, and something for others, yet at least it's interesting to consider.
In a finite set packing objects of definite size and shape characteristics related to a particular field probably would be done in a finite number of ways, while in a circumstance where the field characteristics increase to the infinite the number of ways of arranging or altering the arrangements also increases. The number of dimensions of a universe might describe implicitly the number of ways characteristics of various 'physical' particles and fields within it could exist in a stable state. Fortunately stable and transitional states for particles and waves of the universe change yet in relation to the pervasive field characteristics governing or describing there phenomenal characteristics.This universe exists with a hypothetical finite number of dimensions and particles within a pervasive and hypothetical field with a time direction based on the conservation of energy and laws of entropy with particles and configurations of waves and particles subject to uncertainty, subjective contingence and always to the Christian and Jews perhaps subject to the metaphysical will of God. The infinite characteristics of packing and selection deontologically reduced from some sort of monistic contingent origin is interesting.

Senator Grassley's Grass Roots in the Sky
Isaiah 14:24 'The LORD of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:'
Senator Grassley was whining on some television news blah this morning about taxes and Congressman Wrangell-D New York. Because I was working only the gist was available...Senator Grassley is worried that Charley Wrangell, Korean land war veteran could become chairman of the ways and means committee!
--photo by N.A.S.A.
When the Republicans of the Senate and House are on a spending spree of six years running the notion that a Democrat might wrest the ways and means mint away must send shivers of terror down their rubbery spending and fiscal responsibility 'spines'.
It was the concept that people earning more than 200,000 dollars a year should pay taxes, or at least the unfairness of it that seemed to get Grassley’s goat. When the nation is on a spending spree the rich should be paying higher not lower taxes.
It has been pointed out by serious economists that deficit spending is a tax on the future. That is the poor of the present have any federal benefits and spending that might have been allocated to them presently and in the future taken away while wages rot, and the rich today get more federal spending to support their economic infrastructure now and in the future without substantive taxes. It seems that the rich should pay the highest taxes because they get the most out of the nation financially.
Several problems of course exist when a non-creative repressive class of rich oppresses the majority of the people yet have a broadcast media to propagandize and divert democratic political remedies.
So I will point out why capitalism isn't a substitute for democracy nor should be. Market forces cannot replace rational management in environmental issues for example. Not only is the time paradigm out of skew in oil exploration, development and sales, it is blind to future environmental impact scientists could predict presently.
Oil drilling in Louisiana has caused the ground to sink with the removal of liquids. In Alaska the same phenomena could occur one day when the permafrost melts because of global warming, and the coastal plain might drop below sea level and take the mushy beswamped tundra with it, along with pipelines with millions of broken welds and sundry equipment corrupted by bad planning engineering environmentally.
It is hard to believe the cold war was strategized for the west by market forces, unless it was corporatist ownership seeking a post-war dictatorship perhaps. I can't believe that consumers desires for better coffee or faster cars in some way was a market forces indicating the creation of marv'd nuclear warheads or a 500 ship navy.
While I supported the end of communist aggression against free enterprise, I also support the end of corporatist aggression upon democracy. Corporatism tends to corrupt market forces, and market forces are blind to social needs in a democracy. It is possible that some business people believe that democracy is about market forces itself, and giving the 'consumer-voters' shelved candidates of an acceptable character is best. That may produce a mediocre cup of coffee or even an Edsel but not a fiery political reformer willing to tackle the issues of an oppressive social class bleeding the nation's security in order to enrich itself as supreamists earning more in a year than many poor would in a thousand lifetimes.
I had a really good example of the fallacy that market forces can replace adequately democratic government, yet I can't recollect what it was presently...maybe later. For now I will write that the rich seem to be taking their profits and reinvesting them globally while running up a federal deficit to leave the poor holding the bag.
The course of importing cheap foreign workers to provide cheap labor to accompany cheap wal-mart goods mollifies many Americans not displaced by that trend with low-cost stuff. All the easy living non-creative 'managers' want high incomes and expensive environmentally displacing homes with real wages that don't increase much. Big homes, big TV. and big cars with foreign fuel...all it takes is a vast federal debt, pollution and millions of illegal aliens. There is no free lunch for any nation, and when the Grassley’s and other leaders let the nation's infrastructure rot while building up foreign nations the nation's advantage slippage increases, while China builds oil wells or exploratory drilling in the Florida Strait.
Senator Grassley and his kind representing the grass roots of penthouse gardens don't realize that some other way needs to be developed to work for a more perfect society politically while letting free enterprisers have their way in their own sector apart from the public sector.
If democracy is to survive and exist anywhere it needs to be made of peers socially and incomes not invested in the United States should be taxed at a somewhat higher rate. Some corporations are vast global organizations seeking to exploit anyone they can anywhere for profit in some instances. Democracies need to be as wary of that as of any other sort of authoritarian government. With corporatist propaganda rule of the broadcast media democrats seeking to have any sort of local government will be called communist or whatever label the corporatists believe might best sucker 'the masses'.
What if General Eisenhower had done the Second World War by 'market forces'? Operation Market Garden might have at least returned French bread or pastries! Government challenge and response, or cause and effect, action and reaction as well as planning generally cannot be in response to market forces but should coincide with the valid needs of society. Market forces, as a way for a democracy to operate a government is far worse than 'voodoo economics'.
The United States needs to have no federal deficit or debt rolled over from year to year, it needs to have a no net loss of biota or species policy, halt illegal immigration and invest in new technologies that will eliminate trade deficit producing areas...a trade surplus through better products instead of through sanctions.
Corrupt federal politicians out of touch with common sense and over beholden to global corporate inertia may not realize that some people don't earn 200,000 dollars in a lifetime, much less in one year. I personally believe that very few people deserve higher earnings beyond 10 or 20 times that of the lowest earners in the U.S.A. Sure their are some people of brilliant merit inventively, but do they even get patents any more, or doesn't everything trickle up to the corrupt?
Excess earnings should go into rebuilding the nation environmentally, socially and in areas of transportation, education, energy and security.

Idea, spirit and the Second Law
My comment about the second law and entropy in the Universe along with a reference to the physical alterity to the universe befalling Adam and Eve (after there choice to chose sin or imperfection) noted the paradigm concurrence of a high state of initial order to disorder.
I would not stipulate that the universe has time ‘boundaries’, as physicists say that the direction of time is an arbitrary fact of statistical association of the flow of mass perhaps more so than a thing for itself. Time is an interesting subject, and some pysicists have speculated that it may be a dimension for-itself of space in some unusual relation to the standard three.Finding the monist pluralist transformation in a reference to big bang density avoids the philosophical question. Brian Greene in one of his popular books wrote that the initial Universe may have weighed 20 pounds before a Higgs Field expanded as a hyper-inflaton because of quantum uncertainty in the Higgs Field that gave it a superluminal repulsive power, yet how can one be sure of that?
The monist/pluralist transformation from a Higgs Field or even a membrane or zero-brane field collision is still a philosophical question apart from speculative or tentative explanations based upon physical theoretical cosmology or cosmic quantum mechanical origin theory.One must be careful in assigned the creation of weight or numbers to any point about the singularity or other creative moment. Weight may be more of a relative than of an absolute term, in fact many aspects of mass are probably in such a relativistic status of being. Within whatever field a particle, wave or mass phenomenality happens to inhere, it’s ability to move through time or space relative to its position is variable in accord to it’s own physical nature and that of that of the field or fields as well as the mass/motion of the fields in which it coheres.
As a Christian I believe that spirit for human purposes is something of a value given by God to sentient beings of a certain nature. Spirit or soul differes from any purely mechanistic or causal relation, though it resides in it, as the human body exists within several force fields and dimensions simultaneously.Concepts occur to human beings, and you know that there is a perennial philosophical debate amidst mathematicians regarding if math concepts exist in reality or just within the ‘reality’ of the human mind or as an idea. Platonic realist and the idea of concepts and forms existing for-themselves is a perennial philosophical question of course. The question about what relation human concepts have to physical determinism and causality is another interesting field of though; and obviously one may place that inquiry into several metastructural protocols.
