SDG16: Part 1 — Building the Global Police State

(June 5, 2023)

There is no reason to believe that the SDG16’s pretensions to promote peace and justice and inclusivity will do anything for the world as a whole, much less anything to resolve the fundamental failings inherent in the UN’s scurrilous and disreputable system of alleged “global governance.”

You may wonder what Sustainable Development Goal 16—or this article about it—has to do with protecting the planet and its inhabitants from the predicted “climate disaster.” The answer is: nothing at all. But then, “climate change” is merely the proffered rationale that purportedly legitimises and lends urgency to sustainable development.

Establishing firm global governance—in effect, a world dictatorship—through the implementation of SDGs is the United Nations’ real objective. “Climate change” is just the excuse. Nothing demonstrates this more clearly than SDG16.9. And this is why we will exclusively focus on 16.9 in Part 2 of our exploration of SDG16.

Sustainable Development Goal 16

Sustainable Development Goal 16 (SDG 16 or Global Goal 16) is one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals established by the United Nations in 2015, the official wording is: „Promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to justice for all and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels“.[1] The Goal has 12 targets and 23 indicators.

SDG 16 has ten outcome targets: Reduce violence; protect children from abuse, exploitation, trafficking and violence; promote the rule of law and ensure equal access to justice; combat organized crime and illicit financial and arms flows, substantially reduce corruption and bribery; develop effective, accountable and transparent institutions; ensure responsive, inclusive and representative decision-making; strengthen the participation in global governance; provide universal legal identity; ensure public access to information and protect fundamental freedoms. There are also two means of implementation targets[2]: Strengthen national institutions to prevent violence and combat crime and terrorism; promote and enforce non-discriminatory laws and policies.

Is Elon Musk Trying To Destroy Twitter?

(Nov 11, 2022)

Here’s a question I’ve been wondering about:

Is Elon Musk trying to destroy Twitter?

I’m not sure why the new owner of the social media app would want to do that. Yet, if the decisions he’s making are any indication, it almost seems like that’s the plan.

Taktik des Terrorkrieges: Wahrnehmungs-Management, Verwirrung, gelenkte Querfront

(7. Juni 2017)

„Surkow kam ursprĂŒnglich aus der Theater-Welt. Und diejenigen die seine Karriere studierten, sagten, was er tat war, Avantgarde-Ideen aus dem Theater zu nehmen und sie in das Herz der Politik zu ĂŒberfĂŒhren. Surkows Ziel war es nicht nur Leute zu manipulieren, sondern tiefer zu gehen und mit ihrer Wahrnehmung der Welt zu spielen und diese zu unterminieren, damit sie niemals sicher sind was wirklich geschieht.

Surkow verĂ€nderte die russische Politik in ein verwirrendes, sich permanent verĂ€nderndes TheaterstĂŒck. Er nutzte Geld des Kremls um alle Arten von Gruppen zu sponsorn: von antifaschistischen Massenjugendorganisationen zu derem völligen GegenstĂŒck: Neonazi-Skinheads, sowie liberalen Menschenrechtsgruppen, welche dann die Regierung attackierten. Surkow unterstĂŒtzte sogar ganze politische Parteien, welche in Opposition zu PrĂ€sident Putin standen.

Doch die entscheidende Sache war, dass Surkow anschließend bekannt werden ließ, dass er dies tat – was bedeutete, dass keiner sicher war was echt und was gefĂ€lscht war im modernen Russland. Wie ein Journalist es formulierte: Es ist eine Strategie der Macht, die jedwede Opposition konstant verwirrt hĂ€lt. Eine unaufhörliche Formwandlung, die unaufhaltsam ist, weil sie undefinierbar ist.”

Wie Interpreten von Recht das Recht verĂ€ndern, brechen, stĂŒrzen können

(23. Juli 2014)

Geht der ganze Prozess unauffĂ€llig (z.B. weil im Zeitlupentempo), unbemerkt und gar mehrfach ĂŒber die BĂŒhne, lĂ€sst sich so nicht nur eine Organisation (wie eine Partei), sondern eine Gesellschaft verĂ€ndern.

Erfolgen diese Prozesse in Absprache oder auf Befehl durch eine Vielzahl von Personen, gerade in SchlĂŒsselpositionen, lĂ€sst sich so eine Gesellschaft gezielt nach den Vorstellungen nur einer Handvoll Personen verĂ€ndern.

Erfolgen diese Prozesse in Absprache und / oder auf Befehl der höchsten staatlichen Ebenen, in Exekutive, Legislative oder Judikative, gar allen zusammen, im Geheimen, in Absprache mit einer auslÀndischen Macht, oder gleich mit mehreren, nennt man so etwas Hochverrat und einen organisierten Staatsstreich.

It‘s Time to Make Israel‘s Protest Impolite

(today)

Social-science research shows that, unlike in the past century, 21st-century democracies don’t become dictatorships through force or military coups, but through gradual legislative changes. Emerging dictatorships exploit democracy‘s tools such as freedom of expression in order to deceive the public. Step by step they pass laws that empty the country’s democratic institutions of their moral values.

Before you know it, the country is left with an empty shell of democratic institutions, and the citizens remain without protection from the government‘s arbitrariness and without means for returning to the status quo.

Harold Pinter – Nobel Lecture: Art, Truth & Politics

(2005)

When we look into a mirror we think the image that confronts us is accurate. But move a millimetre and the image changes. We are actually looking at a never-ending range of reflections. But sometimes a writer has to smash the mirror – for it is on the other side of that mirror that the truth stares at us.

I believe that despite the enormous odds which exist, unflinching, unswerving, fierce intellectual determination, as citizens, to define the real truth of our lives and our societies is a crucial obligation which devolves upon us all. It is in fact mandatory.

If such a determination is not embodied in our political vision we have no hope of restoring what is so nearly lost to us – the dignity of man.

Warum Israels “Grundgesetze” nicht vergleichbar sind mit unserer Verfassung

(11. August 2018)

Sehr zum Leidwesen der E.U.-ReichsbĂŒrger und ihrer entsprechenden Pendants kann in der Berliner Republik die Verfassung nur durch Zwei-Drittel-Mehrheit in zwei Parlamentskammern (Bundestag und Bundesrat) geĂ€ndert und nur durch eine Volksabstimmung gestĂŒrzt werden.

Im Gegensatz dazu werden Israels “Grundgesetze” lediglich in einer einzigen Parlamentskammer (der Knesset) mit absoluter Mehrheit beschlossen, wie alle anderen Gesetze. Inwieweit sich der Status der “Grundgesetze”, die irgendwann einmal eine Verfassung bilden sollen, ĂŒberhaupt von allen anderen Gesetzen unterscheidet, ist in Israel bis heute umstritten.

Dieser faule Kompromiss entstand, da nach der UnabhĂ€ngigkeitserklĂ€rung Israels in 1948 keine verfassungsgebende Versammlung gewĂ€hlt wurde und auch das Parlament diesbezĂŒglich keine Entscheidung traf.

Coalition said planning bill to shield overhaul legislation from future repeal bids

Fearing that their proposals to shift powers away from the courts and into politicians’ hands could be reversed by a future Knesset they don’t control, the coalition chiefs want to pass their judicial shakeup plans as amendments to existing Basic Laws, then approve a new one delineating the status of the Basic Laws and under what conditions they can be altered, the report said.

No Supreme Court means no check on government – opinion

(JUNE 29, 2023)

The sagas of who would be voted chair of the Israel Bar Association and the earlier vote to select the Knesset’s representatives to the judicial selection committee – two events that had never previously attracted significant media coverage or interest – are indications of the drama that we have witnessed over the past six months.
