1) John, that's a 'been there, done that' observation. (LOL)

When the OIC revised its charter and rebranded itself (Organization of Islamic Conference to Organization of Islamic Cooperation) in 2008, they also defined themselves as the leader of the Ummah in terms that match the status of a Caliphate.

Because this OIC Charter was formally and officially ratified by the heads of every Muslim Country (I could say 'Islamic State' but that would short circuit too many people), it's legal status is dispositive. When the OIC Secretary General was asked about the 'caliphate' status of the OIC, the Turkish Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu that the OIC fills that role.

So, none of this is speculative.

And what does it mean that the American component of the IM (which, in North America is lead by the Ikhwan Muslimin - i.e., the M Brotherhood).

After all, when the US MB has their national conferences, they don't hesitate to broadcast him in as a keynote speaker - Rabia gesture and all.Image

2) And whenever Erdogan comes to America, he does like to leadership meetings with his subordinates. But Erdogan's Sultan-esque leadership is also reflected by how the OIC writ large perceives him. And he certainly seems to have sustained experience with the . . . shall we say, global left. It really is a concern.

But even more concerning is that it's not on anyone's radar.Image

1) There's so much to ripsaw through here. After a few brief pointers however, we'll focus on the initiate signaling of "Ur-Platonists."

Beware of Post Vatican II philosophers discussing Plato and Aristotle, you may be reading a mugging.

Pointers.

Note the assessment of Plato along materialist terms that put the discussion in line with Marxist notions of dialectical materialism.

"The ultimate cause is God, or soul . . ." The Platonic discussion primarily concerns the soul. Plato may refer to small "g" gods, but not "God," and any monotheistic tendencies would be, as noted in earlier posts, with notions of "One" (Monad) from which the "many" are to become sublated aspects of at some end point in history a la Chardin, Hegal, Blavatska, the Hermticists, Alchemists, Neoplatonists, and Plato.

There is warning that when Aristotle and Aquinas are put in this "Ur-Plato" continuum, one should take time to assess whether it's the Aquinas in the Neoplatonic box Aristotle (and by extension Aquaina).

On the 2nd page (80), the text on Plato morphs into Aristotle's "Nicomachian Ethics." Maybe it's just too blurred for my sense of things, but "The Ethics" discussion on happiness, ευδαιμονια - eudaemonia - a much deeper sense of the term than its use suggests, does come from habituation along the entire telos of one's life.

This is Plato in a blender with an admixture of Aristotle.

Now, on to "Ur-Plato" and how materialism might yield a nexus (or two). 2) The first thing to ponder when hearing of "Ur-Platonist" is that it can be traced to Plato's Symposium, specifically to Pasuanias's defense of high-minded pedophilia, as opposed to the lowly "Pandemic" pederasty that gave it a bad name.

Uranian reflects that the Aphrodite in question comes from the primordial Greek god of the heavens, Uranus, in Latin, Ουρανος - Ouranos in Greek, placing Pausanius's position in the preferred status.

Of course, within the language itself, "pan" all - "demos" people, one can see that this privilege was withheld from the hoi polo and reserved for those in a higher status.

Of course, there's good reason to suspect that Plato himself thought that such arguments were contrived nonsense.Image

1) Carl Sagan and his successors execute the Hegelian "Science of Reason" line of effort by which they claim the top position on the divided line and then declare all competing views "unscientific" and, therefore, intellectually inferior. In doing so, the leverage what might be real (or perceived to be real) science to advance non-scientific claims of a distinctly metaphysical nature. In this regard, Saban simply picked up where the Jesuit scientific fraud Teilhard de Chardin left off. Hegel IS the exploitation of the "Platonic Nightmare," as are all Notions and philosophies that stem from him.

Of course, Sagan's "science" line of effort (LOE) includes fully reworking historical figures like Hypatia. Almost everything taught about her today completely violates the known historical record, thus constituting a completely manufactured persona. Why? So that people like Sagan can say all of history confirms what they want you to believe (as if science) today and constitutes a (not so) covert attack on Christians today.

What follows are a few slides from a draft product. But for those who'd like to look into more detail about Hypatia, and don't forget the Marxist 2009 "Agora," here's a reasonably good place to start: historyforatheists.com/2020/07/the-gr… 2) Carl and his faux ancient Alexandria stage, like his macro version of Chardin's micro "billions and billions of . . ."

My awareness of the "Counterspell Group" is recent. Not sure who runs it so I'll follow it with a discerning eye. See what you know in its X-feeds and take the time to convert to knowing what you see and make the call yourself.

There is the shocking epiphany many reach, for me accidentally, that, for example, Marxism is hardwired to Hegel along theosophical lines, and Hegel executed a convert form of Hermetic Alchemy. In turn, one can than hardwire this into the ongoing "gold, silver, base metal" triangle of Plato's Republic understood along the metaphysical lines established in Plato's Timaeus. It's a covert (initiate) theosophy.

In the pre-modern world, there was a concept of time that emphasized a sharp and severe distinction between "Being" and "Becoming," the lack of awareness of which means you cannot understand either Plato or the Bible. ("I Am" Being/God created time and space "Γένεση" [Genesis] - becoming. That, for example, 'God [Being] so loved the world, he put his only son in Becoming.) This concept has all but been erased from modern awareness and as such has deracinated the West from its own roots.

The dialectic arises directly out of this distinction. Hence, to understand Marxist nature of Harris's "what can be, unburdened by what has been," one must first recognize that its Marxist authority derives from the dialectical nature of the statement.

Removing "I Am" - Being - from the equation - everything that has become to this day must be negated in pursuit of everything to come tomorrow. Tomorrow's reality is premised on today's destruction (dialectical negation), which only exists to move history forward in a perpetual state of destruction of all that is (perpetual revolution) for all that will be. This is accomplished through praxis (doing it without saying so). This practice assumes eternal existence of perpetual becoming that negates, through mere praxis, Aristotle's Act (Pure Being) and Potency (unrealized Act that can become) distinction thus negating both Maimonides and Aquinas without having to ever say they did.

Thus, Harris's statement becomes THE justification for the complete destruction of all institution that currently exist (the ones she took an oath to 'support and defend'. It fits precisely with the Frankfurt School's "Aufheben der Kultur" (Destroy the Culture). The term "aufheben" connects the Marxist with the Hegelian with the alchemical notion of the dialectic - in which the movement of history forward is the process of converting man from base metal to silver to gold - a real practice from which the term "chemistry" is derived but which also serves as the hardwired metaphor for man's hermetic pursuit of a transhuman perfection as mankind "ascends" to the gold standard. "Ascended beings" - or the X-Men.

But of course, all the dialectic does is negate. Cultures that adopt it get destroyed. In this regard, the branded name for this dialectic of destruction - "Aufheben der Kultur" is "Cancel Culture."

One does not have to be a practitioner of metaphysics to recognize the perennial form. In this instance, that Marxism is hardwired to Hermetic Alchemy by way of the dialectic. HARDWIRED! For those who get uncomfortable concerning the esoteric nature (and occult is the theological term for esoteric) of the Marxist equation, you either have to deal with it - account for it - or stay on the porch.

BTW - What's the difference between alchemist turning base metal into gold and Federal Reserves creating money out of loans backed by nothing?

My sense is that "Counterspell Group" may be seeking to expose this relationship. In this instance, the Marxist nature of Harris's claim is that "what can be, unburdened by what has been" is simply an initiate form of aligning her vision with the Marxist "Cancel Culture."

Know what you see! 2) By the way, not just the X-Men. The association between transhumanism and ascension with sci-fi is long-established. Consider it a form of proselytizing with a profit.

I'm also a sci-fi fan. I know what I see when I watch it and assume most do, but I was wrong.

The “Overton Window” is a pseudo sounding scientific term that keeps the underlying explanation trapped in the dialectical circle. It’s a term that locks in “under inclusion.” Calling it “Woke Right” facilitates that by designating the “anti-thesis” to the WOKE “thesis” that will then sustain the negation. The very language of pol Sci is a narrative trap.

Woke is a term associated with Mao’s “awaking” from his Red Book that is the result of the successful execution of a series of intersectional lines of attack along a common line of operation. @ConceptualJames 2) For a visualization of operating in the circle, as opposed to outside of it, and, apologies, it is a bit busy, but there is a reason to build to "WOKE" as an exclusively Marxist term.

People are free to believe whatever they want. Nonetheless, people are not entitled to their own facts. That Catholics (and Orthodox, and Copts, etc) are accused of "recrucifying Christ" is based on a deliberate underinclusive use of the term "remembrance" ("do this in remembrance of me") as used by Luke and Paul.

The Greek term is "ἀνάμνησις" ("anamnesis") which is treated as if the term meant 'a memory of a completed event.'

But that's not what ἀνάμνησις means, a meaning that was firmly set in Greek centuries before Paul and Luke. It reaches back to, among others, Plato.

The meaning of the term is actually both known and not controversial. The term "ἀνάμνησις" (anamnesis) means to recollect an event in the eternally present - the transcendent "eternally now."

It is worth noting that the use of the term anamnesis in the New Testament concerns an event taking place at the Passover meal. That meal, as well, concerns the participation in an eternally present event.

When the "I Am" commands recollection of an event He institutes, it always concerns an event in the realm of "Being," not "becoming." The realm of "Being" is always eternally now and eternally present because "I Am" is as well. 2) And, just to flush out the full range of what is meant by "recollect" when the term covers for "ἀνάμνησις," "recollection" in this sense includes the full participation of those engaged in the act being recollected. As with the Passover Meal, so too with the dedication of the "New Covenant" ("done in remembrance of Me").

As noted, this sense can be fully (and completely) demonstrated by its usage by simply taking sentences from any number of Plato's dialogues over 300 years earlier.

So, why do the PsTB allow police to be targeted inside the US based on a foreign entity's foreign war? Gaza is governed by a terrorist organization (HAMAS is still formally designated as such on the State Department's FTO). Why are death threats permitted against citizens, including Indians? Just asking.Image 2) Why not MSM reporting that could at least put the public on notice?

I should get the quotes form both Lenin and Mao putting ideologues to the wall - threatening to machine gun them - when they pushed for ideological purity when operations were in full execution mode along controlled pathways.

Second to REFUSING TO RECOGNIZE that Marxism is dialectical when seeking to understand Marxism, is that it is taught along Marxists educational lines that keeps it (pseudo)intellectual, vague, and focused on Das Kapital when in fact it should be understood primarily as an execution matrix that supports DSTs (decision support templates) from which flows the philosophical slush. 2) I decided to pull those quotes from both Mao and Lenin. Among the key takeaways, PLEASE note as if it was CRITICAL INFORMATION - PIR that constitutes CCIR - the expressly dialectical form of both their comments. In deliberate decision making, PIR that constitutes CCIR that is not accounted for leads to mission failure. First Mao -Image

More on Doha. If this is true, it means a former US Intelligence operator agreed to engage in espionage against elected members of the United States Government. Am I the only one who thinks this is a grave crime?

Reminds me of the quote from Philip II cited earlier and ponder if this is an epidemic that rises to the level of a clear and present danger. (Yes it is/yes it does - and it's permitted) 2) I remember the events relating to Sens Cruz and Cotton being stopped. Before it was ever announced that the Senate would stand down its efforts to declare the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organization, a campaign promise by Trump, an associate in the Middle East sent me an Arabic language article about how the MB in the Middle East was celebrating that the legislation had been stopped. It spilled the beans on the successful deployment of what Qatar calls its "aircraft carriers." In three parts -Image

"An attack on Hamas is an attack on Qatar. An attack on the Muslim Brotherhood is an attack on Qatar,' document states"

And yet the people who briefed this were purged from the USG. When you think of the Muslim Brotherhood in America, especially its HAMAS element, think CAIR.

Qatar got their money' worth. The professional CT and Intell staff who got it right, and still do, got purged and remain blacklisted.

foxnews.com/world/exclusiv… 2) How bad is it, going back to the beginning, Qatar invested in their aircraft carriers. They're still afloat and still engaged in deep active measure (information) operations. Not the ones that influence the application, but rather the operating system.

1) We live in a world where, in order to stay comfortably nested within the boundaries of the narratives they live in, they prefer to be lied to.

It's pretty easy to do. Just take the work of a graduate student and associate professor (a tell in itself) groundbreaking research that the East Coast is sinking at a rate of a half inch (or so) a year.
aol.com/impacts-real-s… 2) All "they" have to do is create pseudo-scientific sounding narratives written at a level they already know you will think you understand (but don't), wrap it around "the earth as we know it will cease to exist if the government doesn't take full control now" in conjunction with "we don't have time to wait for science to prove our theory, we must act now" talking points aligned with bad Netflix dramas and a few "docu-dramas" to generate predictive responses (just like covid), and a mass line is formed.

1) If one positions the radical feminist role in context, it is based on Adorno and Horkheimer's "Juliette" (1945), based on the Marquis de Sade's "Juliette" (1955), which in turn aligns dialectically with Marcuse's "Eros in Civilizaiton" which makes it clear that the highest form of culture is based on the "love of boys." As Marcuse himself says, this, in turn, is directly patterned after Plato's Symposium (~380 BC). [Note, Marcuse's use of the Greek - ορθως παιδεραστειν - orthos paiderastein - true pederasty - is more accurate.] More to follow - -

1) Ah, becoming ad hominem early. Yet, suppose I take out a business loan from, for example, Bank America in Minneapolis, and a drug dealer in Atlanta launders $$$ millions and deposits those funds in Bank of America in Atlanta. Does this mean my business is connected to drug dealing b/c of BoA?

Whether it's Hammar and Scorecard or the Italian Job, what they are and what's behind it is plain to see. That the objective is to destroy honest election investigations by laundering them with superficially plausible narratives designed not to hold up to real scrutiny seems equally obvious.

@real_sensible 2) Any analysis that doesn't recognize that the dialectical plane is more important than the blast zone it creates is an active measure. Those executing the active measure, analysis based solely on the bast zone, don't have to know that is their designated role. @real_sensible 3) Almost every "Conservative" / "GOP" / "Save America" groups that's funded to advance "the cause" declares that the situation is "SO SEVERE" in the close battle, that they don't have time to address the larger issues.
