Leadership - Blowing Apart The Myths.
Being born and covertly raised to one day become a major leader, it has been ('Has-Been' - my middle name!) vital for myself to be awake to mythology and false assumptions, and to be ready to critique any thoughts and actions as they present.
'Worse-case-scenarios' is a phrase I've adopted when assessing (hypothetically) a plan for future implementation. It may be a business plan, or a strategic, civil or military plan, and the term is important in these areas, because it seems to be a propensity of egomania to assume 'MY' plan is best and cannot fail.
Most failed enterprises and failed political decisions occur purely because of an over-confidence in the initiator(s), and in that, their either refusal or simple lack of Intellect to discriminate between sound ideals and perceptions of a situation, and poor judgement.
But behind every so-called 'leader' lies a virtual army of advisors, promoters, sycophants, and voices with their own often secreted agenda.
With such an army behind them, the 'leader' has also, to deal rationally with whomever stands, or sits, above them, on the ladder of regional or global hierarchy.
From recent history, we are told that various 'leaders' were 'self-made men' or so.
Hitler, Stalin, even Vladimir Lenin, and Saddam Hussein.
Today, in northern Africa, we have revolutions against 'leaders', with claims they are tyrants and despots.
Colonel Gaddafi, ex-President Mubarak, the ousted Tunisian President, and a plethora of others all over the globe are branded as tyrannical despots for becoming, as they are seen to be, selfish and greedy accumulators of the People's wealth.
But this is only one side of the story for each of them. Hitler and Stalin et al, included.
'History' is a dangerous concept, mostly because it is usually written or recorded by the 'victors'.
Each person who attains to such a 'leadership' position, in the vast majority of cases, reaching back as far as we might like into 'history', has been nurtured by others, usually elders, to grow into the role.
With any upward achievement therefore, the 'chosen one' has to succumb to the demands or influences of those above them, who have, so-they-would-say, 'dedicated all their life to making the leader successful'.
This, and other over-influences from higher or more powerful persons or club of elites, have been what these types of leaders have to deal with.
Gaddafi, Mubarak and others are readily denigrated by their own populations and by foreign media alike, but never is there an honest and proper, that-is a full analysis of why and how they gained their positions.
Personally, I regard Muhamur Gaddafi pretty highly, mainly for his long stance against the ober-fuhrers of Britain and Eurape.
Knowing nothing about how Gaddafi got to power, nor about the colonist forces who claimed his and his People's territories as theirs to plunder as they wished uptil Libya's 'War of Independence', it nevertheless seems right to remember the Man he was when the need arose in Libya for their independence from the colonist tyrants of Eurape.
The same need applies to the innumerable 'leaders' who got where they are by leading revolutions against colonist tyranny.
Even the Cambodian 'Pol Pot' comes into this category.
And, it is imperative to remember where the defaming of such leaders comes from.
Today, we witness uprisings across the Arab world. But who have been the tyrannical colonists, and how much are they only too ready to slam those who broke their colonial stranglehold on whole nations of People?
Everything we see and hear through the mainstream western media, is slanted to their preferences, and thus far, in the latest 'Arab' uprisings, we have not seen any analysis of those deposed leaders' rise to power.
Why they were driven to take command, who was behind them, how serious the conditions for the People were, which drove these commanders to try to arrest the declining situation, and, how much 'other', secretive forces were at play?
Clearly, for well over 100 years, such regions have been under tremendous outside pressure to bow to the whitefaced blokes with the heavier artillery.
But well before any military actions began, in such as Libya, or, the Palestine, foreign, colonist secret agents were in amongst the People, doing their evil, by engaging the locals in political conversation, with a covert divisive agenda.
Agenda which, of the last century and more, have never held the well-being of the Locals as important or primary, over their own foreign nation's need for resources or for the colony's strategic location. (Dare we mention the western leaders' 'prestige'?)
Just across the Mediterranean from the dominant tyrannical global powers, in Africa, the People have for perhaps 3000 years had to acquiesce some sovereignty to the excessive demands from the militarily advanced Eurapeans.
No matter how well a Revolutionary 'Leader' such as Colonel Gaddafi, or Hosni Mubarak were, in winning national independence from the over-consuming megalomaniacs of Eurape etc, there have always been limits to how much they could 'Revolutionise' their own People and Lands.
The super-elites of Britain and Eurape, who've been orchestrating affairs globally for centuries, excel in containing damage or loss to their supply-bases or chains, and when things go as far as they do, and set the scene for a Revolution, they know the time has come when they have to concede that things change and they have to let go of their booty-supply, to some extent.
But usually, they never actually let go completely. Almost always there are backroom negotiations between the old guard's offshore diplomats and the new regime, on trade bases, or proposed future relationships.
One, perhaps the prime example of a colonial power 'keeping their powder dry', and waiting to re-assert themselves on a lost colony, is of Britain, then, regarded as principally England, and their psychotic desire to re-capture north America for themselves.
The Brit's lost the colonies of the to-be United States of America in the US War of Independence, in 1776.
Yet there is credible evidence to show that, as EIR's Drugs Inc., Boston Bankers and Soviet Commissars book tells, the Brits have been smarting since 1776 over that loss, and that they have been 'keeping their powder dry' for over 200 years, intent on winning the boundless resources and market back.
According to the Drugs Inc., book, this they succeeded in doing sometime around the 1970s, but not by military force, nor by a terrorist campaign of suicide bombers, but by the slow takeover of US commerce and industry.
Of course, they also used the same methods they deployed in China in the mid-1800s, of introducing heroin to the US troops while they were fighting in Vietnam, with the clear agenda of having the returned US troops becoming addicted and thus creating a demand-therefore-a-market for the pernicious drug, in the US.
A 'multi-pronged' attack on the United States, purely to win back the enormous market and thus the control of the People of the United States of America and, to regain their over-bloated British 'pride'.
So, today, centuries down the track since the Brits began the arts of subversion and covert control of their colonies, they have run a very tight regime of control, which reaches, as we all know down-here-down-on-the-bottom to Australia, but also spread themselves across Asia, still owning to a large degree, places like India, China, Hong Kong, Myanmar, et al. Not so much by being 'proxy-rulers', as being in charge of most economic developments, changes, reforms, or Progressive political advances.
Most people are not so interested nor inquisitive enough to delve into this type of history, either of their own nation, or of the world as a whole, so allowing our media and governments to get away with narrow perspectives of situations as they develop across the globe.
So, in Tunisia, Libya and Egypt, Et Al, the Presidents have had to, behind closed doors, satisfy covert demands from either the old colonists or whichever power is the new order of the larger region, or whole globe.
Were any of these Nations truly independent from those more powerful global elites, I have no doubt their Leaders would've taken their Revolutions much farther than they did, to the point where market forces and foreign demands became insignificant.
Because for the last 140 years or so, the dominant global powers have had very set agenda for the planet, and, as they gained their posture by ruthless, totally unethical religious and political bullshit, backed-up by superior military power, they have grown in megalomanic-over-confidence, such that they have gone to enormous extents to ensure they remain 'in control', and that no True and Proper Reforms would ever be instituted in the lost regions.
Whether, in Gaddafi's case, he or his leadership group knew what was ahead for them and their People, before their Righteous Revolution, I don't know.
In pre-Revolution situations, seeing that far ahead is often pointless, and can more often serve to weaken any stance. Stances which manifest because of the immediate dire situation the People are in, and that come into being for the Peoples' and the recognised Leaders' recognition that something has to be done NOW!
But, the future always keeps coming at us, and forces us, or leaders, to assess their ability to take any Revolution that 'next step' further, to creating a Nation which is not subservient to foreign, unreasonable greedy, demanding powers.
Clearly, as said, the northern African nations have been debilitated for aeons by the conquering armies of Eurape, or, of Rome, and so it has been an enormous struggle for any of them, the People or any Leader who makes it to the top of the national pile (or pyramid!), to gain their Nation's True Independence.
In regard to the moment's Uprisings, you can be sure the monarchies and political-read-oligarchic elites of Eurape and Britain are deep in their war-room bunkers yabbering-on about the situation in 'Arabia', and what they can do to minimize damage or threats to their hegemony.
So it is, I'm sure, underground in Israel.
And, beyond the microphones and cameras of the mainstream media which report on the events, there will always be a clique of power-mongers, typically backed by an aggressive-compulsive military faction, who out-of-sight, demand certain restraints in the lost territories.
Restraints, such as limiting any Reforms so-as to not negatively effect the ex-powers' ability to continue, in another rebranded guise, to plunder, or to convert the Locals to their way of thinking and consuming, and/or into selling their resources offshore.
Today, 2011, some 30 years since the Libyan, Egyptian and Tunisian anti-colonialist Revolutions, two generations have been born and grown to having something near to, in the youth of them, a voice about and against the situation they witness day-to-day in their country.
Endless capitalist foreign influences have been pretty-much all they've known, outside of their own Cultural and parochial Traditions.
Foreign influences which depend solely on consumption and expansion to remain where they are. Foreign forces, whose civil and military commanders are not 'built' to consider the larger, long term aspects of 'life on earth', such as short-term over depletion of natural resources and supplies thus the deadly effects to the environment, such as the most sustainable form of government, or dangerous cultural beliefs and actions. Etc.
Instead, foreign leadership is taught to focus on their own People's demands and needs, which always, according to their scripted mandate, put the well-being of the Locals in such as Libya, Tunisia and Egypt Et Al well behind those of their own mobs.
And worse than that, for aeons these leaders of the major powers, have for whatever reason, usually peer influence or pressure, been forced to focus on the sustenance and well-being of a certain clique of their own class or Tribe, over-and-above the short and long term Good of the majority of their own People!
So this same tragic situation is translated down onto any of their colonies, such that their 'puppets' running their colonies, are forced to satisfy the foreigner's demands before their own People's needs.
This is pretty-much always why Revolutions occur, and are so deeply orchestrated by the colonists that they, as said above, have previously sent in their secret operatives to build foundations which will survive any Revolution.
Therefore, it is vitally important for everyone to take these points into their considerations about 'where-to-from-here', and about, especially about, how they will deal with their deposed Presidents.
As we have been informed, Presidents Mubarak and Gaddafi have been 'withdrawn' from their People for many years, and have sought to keep their places and palaces. But to do that they have had to satisfy those nearest to them. And that translates into being the land-owning elites, mostly dynasties, and the wealthiest merchants, etc.
Therefore, whatever Colonel Gaddafi might have recognised as Primary immediately after the Revolution he led, 30 years ago, he has always been constrained, or, in western military terms, 'contained', to stay within certain politico-economic boundaries, as set by the foreign forces.
These foreign constraints on their ability to take the Revolution to it's Fullest Potential, are more reasons why such leaders withdraw from being a part of the People's culture, and as often become somewhat 'reclusive', unseen by their People. It is also this type of necessary retirement from public life by such Leaders, which brews antipathy and forgetfulness amongst the People, of the Good they actually did for the People in decades passed.
So, as to how the world deals with the fallen 'dictators', these past scene-setting situations have to be remembered and weighed against the present expectations of today's Arabs.
However, such thoughts do not make-it, up to the powers-that-be in such as the horrendously self-serving and corrupt International Criminal Court in Den Hague, Holland.
Many cases exist of how they, the ICC., sought and succeeded to condemn and execute passed 'Revolutionary' leaders of poorer nations, while quite deliberately ignoring the FACTS about how they, the powers-that-be, in reality set-the-scene in the lesser nations for turmoil, disempowerment of that nation's leadership and of their People, breakdown of any Culture and Tradition which more than likely was too Honorable and Intelligent for the invaders to accept (for it being antithetical to their commercial, colonist megalomaniac designs and desires), division amongst the Locals, and so shattered any Balance in those pre-colonial regions, to the point that Revolution was the only way for the Locals to react.
As we will see, once some semblance of order has returned to north Africa, the Eurapeans will assume control of pursuing the ex-Presidents, having them arrested and charged with the usual 'war crimes' and/or 'crimes against humanity'.
Then they will be shuffled into facing that rotten bastion of colonial bitterness, the International Criminal Court, or one of the other courts Eurape deems as necessary to eliminate any Just opposition to their global tyranny.
And, sadly, the USA will chime-in, and assume the authority over those who had the Righteous Temerity to challenge the filthy 'old kings' hegemony and fought for their own nation's independence.
Julian Assange and Wikileaks being the latest victim(s) of an out-of-date, whitefaced Brit-Eurapean (including Scandinavian) psychotic Christian belief and injustice system.
Therefore, from the Highest Bastion of Authority, I make a call across the globe, to everyone in north Africa and the Middle East, to weigh these facts, these considerations, when they ponder the future for their newly 'liberated' nations, and, when they consider how they see-off those not-so-long-ago Heroes of their own People, Nations and Arabic and Islamic Cultures.
The same appeal goes to the US Administration and to the Pentagon as they consider whether Julian Assange should in fact be extradited from Svvveaydun (Sweden), with all it's gay bitches with serious misanthropy issues.
Apparently, wars are fought to establish or re-establish 'Peace'?
Clearly, this is a myth, because for well-over 1000 years, wars have been fought to feed one greedy and over-consumptive monarchy or another, and it's obese peers and subjects.
Coming after that, in later times, wars have been created, or the scene has been set, by foreign powers who want the local booty, for wars to start, so the foreign powers' corporations can make a few mill/bill/trill.
Take the 2003 war by the USA-British-and-allied forces against the Nation and the People of Iraq, for example.
Apart from the privatised US Military provisional service corporations making billions, the ones which profited most were the US and other 1st world 'contractor corporations' like 'Rinca', the world's largest manufacturer of cement, concrete, and OH HELLO Richard! (how's things, post-op?) Halliburton. Corporations who were in fact, right in there when the 'fucking psychoes' (unquote Colin Powell, then US Secretary for Defence, on the 'inner circle' of the GW Bush Administration) began planning the Iraq war.
But we cannot forget the tyrannical energy corporations' involvement in setting the scene in Iraq, for an invasion.
Another example coming to mind is the 1990s war between Azerbaijan and Armenia, which was in fact set-up, to eventually kill some 300,000 Azers and Armenians, by the British/US energy consortia of BP, Texaco, Shell etc.
But of course, they contracted the job of dividing the locals, to the ever-sneaky bastards in MI6. MI6, who do the corporate dirty work.
But, the facts are, that pretty-much every nation is today, and in reality always have been, PRIVATE COMPANIES, owned by monarchs, and their never-seen wealthy dynastic peers, who pay those we know as 'politicians' the classic 30-pieces-of-silver to keep the Public dumbed-down and powerless against their ruthless, uncaring, inhumane maltreatment of the Peasants.
This is precisely why in Astrayliar, we have extreme right-wing, pro-offshore corporate interest political parties and (HA!) 'leaders', with about as much credibility, merit and talent as a Nimbin guttersnype, prepared to say ANYTHING to unsettle any Progressive governmentation and/or Genuine politico-economic reforms for the nation.
Same-same now across the world. The likes of ex-President Mubarak and Colonel Gaddafi Et Al, have constantly had to 'manage' or deal with these types, whether grumpy nationals or foreign media moguls with set cultural agendas that do not coincide with any Genuine National Economic Structures.
A line I heard from the ether a few months ago is:
“Leaders - they make 'em, to break 'em!”
That came to mind just after our elected prime minister, Master Kevin Rudd, was unceremoniously deposed by his own party, and the Woman who was told to decapitate him, and replace him, (therefore....? Madame?) Julia Gillard, was heard to ruminate about 'who would want to be prime minister' ('Anyone want to be prime minister?' actually) when daggers are 'standard issue' equipment in the political shithole of Canberra.
So...., in regard to leadership, and the myths surrounding the concept, it's for everyone to stop and take a dive to the depths of thought, to divine exactly what such a position does, in this increasingly encrazed westernised world, and exactly how the Masses should look toward any appearing 'leader'.
Self-made leaders are pure myth. Therefore, are they, or any, actual 'leaders', the real-deal?
Always, leaders have to bow to basic unchanging Laws.
Every human being cannot disobey certain fundamental, natural laws.
We all have to have food and water, as we all have to defecate.
These are basic laws.
All the way up from the bathroom, through the kitchen, to the highest arena, there are laws manmade or natural, that everyone is subservient to.
This rule applies to how living beings exist amongst other living beings.
Darwinists would assert that the first law is, in relationships, 'only the fittest survive'.
But are they, therefore, invincible?
Not when the Great Mutha Eartha gets her pluck up!
And She, exists, remains extant or dies because she is blessed or cursed by the laws of thermo-dynamics, etc.
Down on Her surface, thermo-dynamics cause conditions for gravitational laws to manifest, to which we are all forced to comply.
So it goes on and down the tree of life to laws which all earth-bound living creatures have to obey.
Over the evolution of the Human Species, the innate recognition of the need to obey laws has risen, and thus, once Families and Tribes grew to a size where some limits were necessary, manmade laws were introduced, to maintain some order amongst them.
Once, before events such as the Torah's 'Fall from Eden', the unseen hand which ensured laws were obeyed, was god, or so I hypothesise.
The Laws of Nature, and god, were one and the same.
Each member of a Family or Tribe was made aware of these laws from their earliest years, and came to Know that those Laws MUST be obeyed, or disaster awaited them.
Beneath all of mankind's postulations and rantings, these laws remain constant.
With every advance by mankind, whether through technology or new application of resources, so too grew their personal pride, to the point where they believed they were either gods themselves, or were so smart they could ignore these fundamental laws.
OOOPS!?
Down falls another empire!
And, their leaders....
So.., my attempt here is to have all of us to 'get over' leaders, and do everything we can to return the Principle Leader of all life on Earth - the Law.
This means of course, there's a lot to do, firstly in dissembling the old, corrupt laws.
This means we have even more work to do, because it IS bloody hard work, even though it is the Best Work any Human Being can do, of expunging the bullshit from our minds about, well, just about everything we've come to like and be addicted to, such as untrue laws.
Particularly untrue ECONOMIC LAWS.
Their opposite, True Scientifically-provable Economic Laws which are known, are what we must learn hard to obey, for they are recognised as Perennial Laws, unchanging Laws, laws which, if disobeyed or ignored, will bring calamity upon us and upon our world, either now or in the future.
And HELLO!!! Anyone noticed how the whole world is sliding into complete disaster?
WHY?
Deeply incorrect economic laws, forced upon all of Humanity by the International Monetary Fund!
WARNING WARNING!!! DANGER AHEAD!
