World Military Spending - Global Issues - 0 views

  • Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes … known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few.… No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.— James Madison, Political Observations, 1795

  • "To say we were striving for a one-world government is exaggerated, but not wholly unfair. Those of us in Bilderberg felt we couldn't go on forever fighting one another for nothing and killing people and rendering millions homeless. So we felt that a single community throughout the world would be a good thing."
  • The original conference was held at the Hotel de Bilderberg, near Arnhem in the Netherlands, from 29 to 31 May 1954. It was initiated by several people, including Polish politicians Józef Retinger and Andrew Nielsen, concerned about the growth of anti-Americanism in Western Europe, who proposed an international conference at which leaders from European countries and the United States would be brought together with the aim of promoting Atlanticism – better understanding between the cultures of the United States and Western Europe to foster cooperation on political, economic, and defense issues.[3]

Chaos - 0 views

  • In the framework of complex dynamical systems we can view the world at the beginning of this century as loosely connected with clusters of highly complex trouble spots and the number of people with a global perspective and fast connections was very small. Today we have multiple systems of global information exchange together with impressive data and information systems accessible for a rapidly growing number of people. We claim that the a global computer network will have a much more dramatic impact on global issues than other networks of global communication systems like television or telephone. In the first case we obtain many features that we can associate with the development of biological brains whereas in the two latter cases many essential features are missing. The most relevant one is the creation of the analog of cell assemblies.

Scientists suggest spacetime has no time dimension - 0 views

  • Scientists propose that clocks measure the numerical order of material change in space, where space is a fundamental entity; time itself is not a fundamental physical entity.
  • They propose to replace these concepts of time with a view that corresponds more accurately to the physical world: time as a measure of the numerical order of change.
  • No time dimension

  • “Einstein said, ‘Time has no independent existence apart from the order of events by which we measure it,’”
  • “Newton theory on absolute time is not falsifiable, you cannot prove it or disprove it, you have to believe in it,” Sorli said. “The theory of time as the fourth dimension of space is falsifiable and in our last article we prove there are strong indications that it might be wrong. On the basis of experimental data, time is what we measure with clocks: with clocks we measure the numerical order of material change, i.e., motion in space.”
