Is Louis Farrakhan Anti Semitic?

With a Maltese mother and English father my genetic origins are part Phoenician part Saxon or more contemporary I am half Semitic and half Anglo-Saxon. That's a little more robust than say European Ashkenazi claims to Jewry after conversion for political reasons as Louis Farrakhan reminds us here. However on the subject of Kosher Jewish origins, I'm always on the lookout for Sephardic Jewish links due to my fondness for the Iberian peninsula and its golden age of Arab, Jews and Christians living, working and trading together harmoniously in Southern Europe.

As I've got both genetic bases covered I feel at liberty to criticize where criticism is deserved, like the Israeli apartheid of Palestine which is unconscionable. Far more so than dubious claims to the tribe of the Semites and our distinctive traits. Here's Chomsky on the subject with a speech just uploaded in the last few hours.

John Lash - The Antichrist, Sentinels & 2012

John Lash raises the question why major organised religions have not gone out of their way to dispel the 2012 meme. Possibly their various messiah/saviour complexes play into this framework and their experiences of tapping into human fear is a fulcrum of their historical manipulation.

He also talks about how we know the deliberate crashing of the financial system is culminating in a strategy for a one world currency and that the 2012 memeplex is a wonderful carrier for a one world religion for those still under the spell of the victim perpetrator complex. In a nutshell if they don't have your wallet they'll have your soul and they would prefer both. It seems the elite profit machines have most by the balls through television and cauterized empathy for half the planet who get by on less than two bucks a day. It's an excellent interview and while researching it I discovered that the world religions congress next year takes place in Illuminati HQ metropolis designed Astana.

Thailand's Hurt Locker

The video is a must see for the Thai Bomb Squad member complete with bomb proof padded suit taking the full blast of a car bomb. The article by Patrick Wintour is a solid reminder that Southern Thailand is one of the most active conflict spots anywhere. Blaming doesn't help and so while I don't take sides with necessary peaceful negotiations, I remember full well how the Tak Bai and Krue Sae massacre under Thaksin Shinawatra were a disastrous episode in what was once a peaceful part of the country. I believe he regrets his actions now and I hope his sister the new Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra can find a peaceful way to diminish the conflict.

Saturn & Metatron's Cube

I spent the afternoon on Saturn. Or rather on Jet Propulsion Laboratories(JPL) and NASA's website doing some research and struck oil on that whole NASA/JPL obsession with the occult thing that says to me, more is going on under our noses, than you're average premier-league fan's blood pressure could handle. Let me you hit you up with the basics if you've missed the earlier Saturnalia posts.

Y'all can see from the sacred geometry below, that there's a two dimensional Hexagon AND a three dimensional Cube right?

You might not have time to watch the videos so let me articulate this carefully. Not every shape within a shape can represent both 2D and 3D structure with the integrity of Metatron's cube above, which can do a whole lot more than Hexagon and Cubes (Hexadron) and is really the DNA of platonic solids, and thus a building block to reality. If you wish the creator of the universe had Metatron's cube in mind before commencing with 3D reality. It's a transcendental form and a blueprint of holographic reality.

Where this gets sexy, is that Saturn was discovered in the 70's to have a rotating Hexagon on its North and South poles. Nowhere else in the universe is this the case (to our knowledge) and so we might ask ourselves a pertinent question. Why did the ancient Hebrews (and others) worship the black cube (Teffilin) and Saturn right up until today?

Or rather, how did they know that Saturn has a representational Metatron's cube when we only found out a few decades ago? The link with the Islamic Kaabah is hard to ignore too if you can now see the 2 dimensional Hexagon and 3 dimensional Hexadron.

I throw in the Islamic link at the end as a hint of today's findings. Saturn's influence on our space and time are hard to ignore and I've now had a Damascene conversion to the inarguable influence of of Saturn on our planet as displayed by the ancient Hebrew's AND the cosmic elites at NASA and Jet Propulsion Laboratories. I was sure before but now I'm convinced. Oh and the good news is maybe we got outside help on our side. The evidence has been under our noses for some time, but buckle up for the ride because there are those with everything to lose and we have EVERYTHING to gain.

Thailand's Tropical Gulag

The troubles down south have been going on a lot longer than the reductionist story of Reds versus Yellows. It's straight forward ignorance, chauvinism and arrogance coupled with territorial insensitivity and inflexibility to subsidiarity, that only exists due to the geographical and historical idiocy of the British empire in that part of the world . 

I used to occasionally cross the border at Narathiwat though that is no longer sensible given the violence that takes place in that part of the world. It's evident to me that the muslims down South or rather less materialistic cultures are de facto materially/fiat currency poorer in the the 21st century than materialist cultures that value stuff over non stuff. 

Things like feelings and consciousness for example. We should be aware of that when assessing a balance sheet for the superiority of cultures. Once again Al Jazeera does more serious and more pertinent content than any other global news organization.

The Quran

It was my planning mentor at HHCL who first turned me onto the Koran (as we spelled it then) and Islam, and watching the following video reminds me of a discussion I had in Starbucks the other day with a guy carrying Richard Dawkin's book The God Delusion. I asked him how he was finding it, and pointed out one flaw is the absence of separation between God and Religion (I dislike the latter).

In any case I put him onto my favourite rebuttal of the Dawkins book and he was very grateful for that link. I've just had a chance to watch this, and it's top quality content. I've no idea why YouTube viral clips get only 10 seconds to work with me and yet I'll lose an afternoon in this stuff. This came by way of Smashing Telly which has disrupted any number of lovely days I should have spent in the sun. Time to get down to the beach and squeeze a few hours out if possible.

Timo Veikkola - Nokia

Kjirstin

I went to PSFK's conference yesterday in London. It was billed as a morning of trends and ideas, and an afternoon of new marketing. The whole day was hugely enjoyable and I'm not just saying that because PSFK put me up at the Metropolitan and paid for those Cannes tickets I was moaning about. I made some notes of the thoughts and ideas that made sense to me or even didn't make sense but somehow needed to be taken down. Here they are.

The first speaker was Timo Veikkola (picture by lynetter) who is a future specialist at Nokia (what a great job), and seems to have a similarly exciting position as Jan Chipchase. Timo is one of those social science types that the Scandinavian countries excel at integrating into big business much more sympathetically than many U.S. corporations. His goal is to make communications as natural as possible while picking up on future trends to integrate into Nokia products and usability. Timo pointed out that there is no other stimulant like travel and I'd fully agree with him there. Anything else is just Disneyland really. Timo is currently planning for the year 2010, and reminded us of the question "can the human mind master what the human mind has made?" (Zygmnunt Bauman). For a Clinton Kid like me, the last 6 years have been quite depressing and Timo underlined how war is thematic for this decade despite the number of casualities at this moment in time. He talked how these visuals of the oxymoron 'war on terror' have started to seep into culture and may also explain why there is a considerable counter movement for the honest, fun and simple.

Many years ago I was in Vietnam and noticed that despite all the efforts of the mighty U.S. military machine it was Coca-Cola that had really won the war. One slide by Timo of a car covered in Arabic text reminded me that if we look at the population growth demographics for Islamic countries it shouldn't be too long before, along with India and China we should in the future begin to see more Arabic text creeping into our culture. I always find text fascinating and have even etched a few Khmer and Siamese tattoos on my body. I can think of nothing more exciting than nipping up to the Turk, Sri Lankan, Kurdish and Tamil supermarkets where I'm living and looking at 'foreign stuff'. Somehow Coconut Milk from Southern India is much more romantic and kosher than something packaged by one of the supermarkets. I am also quite frankly bored with all the web 2.0 cuddly logos sprouting, although I do realise that style is more important and useful than identity in this overloaded logo world.

Timo talked about how protest and political statement will likely be more present in design of the future and this was reinforced later by the sustainable design panel. I can certainly see a future where homogeneous brands, products and services are more likely to differentiate themselves by what they stand for - their values as it were. Timo also described that we seem to be living in almost biblical Revelations-like times with famine, pestilence, disease and floods from things like SARS, Hurricanes and Tsunamis, he then talked about the move from a celebrity culture to a knowledge culture which simply can't come soon enough for me.

Many moons ago on a hardcore right wing political chat channel that I liked to sharpen my teeth on I was arguing (or rather being shouted down) about the moral and intellectual bankruptcy of driving SUV's in a world with rapidly diminishing oil and young Americans and British people dying for it while serving in the armed forces in Iraq which everyone knows (except the oil addicts) was invaded for its oil reserves and the Green Zone that will administer it. The one weapon that unsettled the frothy mouthed right-wing-nuts in the debate (95% of the channel) was the question, would Jesus drive an SUV? The unholy alliance between the Neo-Conservatives and the Christian fundamentalists is always unsettled by this simple question and mark my words for the future of sustainable consumption, religion and culture will be huge factors in the war of ideas. Ask yourself if Jesus would purchase an SUV, because it looks to me from the picture above that Mohamed wouldn't have minded a Big Mac. That is every reason for being optimistic about the future...... which according to Arthur C Clarke is going to be 'utterly fantastic'.
