How happy would mankind be, were these amiable precepts of nature everywhere observed! Nations would communicate to each other their products and their knowledge; a profound peace would prevail all over the earth, and enrich it with its invaluable fruits; industry, the sciences, and the arts would be employed in promoting our happiness, no less than in relieving our wants; violent methods of deciding contests would be no more heard of; all differences would be terminated by moderation, justice and equity; the world would have the appearance of a large republic; men would live everywhere like brothers, and each individual be a citizen of the universe. That this idea should be but a delightful dream! Yet it flows from the nature and essence of man.''
This is the idea of the ``Ode to Joy'' by Schiller: ``all men become brethren,'' and it is the idea of the Ninth Symphony of Beethoven. It is the poets and the composers who shape human history. Let us therefore make a solemn commitment that we will create a beautiful world with people with a beautiful soul.

The alternative is already there. The fact that India, China, Iran, Turkey, the Central Asian republics, are working on the Eurasian Land-bridge; that Germany and France, under conditions of their collapsing economies, are orienting toward the Eurasian Land-bridge, means that there is hope. If we can convince the U.S. government to adopt the Eurasian Land-bridge as being in the strategic security interests of the United States, and that the United States must return to the policy of the Founding Fathers, to support a community of principle among sovereign nation-states, then the oligarchism, their evil ideology, the Enlightenment, can be defeated forever, and a new Renaissance is within reach.

Now we have come to the turning point, the fundamental branching point, the punctum saliens in history. The global financial system is in a breakdown crisis, and we are looking at a collapse worse than that of the Fourteenth Century. The 600-year epoch, the fight between the nation-state and the oligarchical model which co-existed in a symbiotic form, is coming to an end. If the nation-state and sovereignty are eliminated, we are looking to a new form of barbarism which mankind has probably never seen.

gerbiam jus, ponas Zigmai, rašykite kuo daugiau apie tai kas vyksta EP ir kur link jie mus veda.

Geri pastebėjimai. Atrodo ir Prezidentė akcentavo mūsų orientaciją į Skandinavios šalis. O privartizacija turėtų būti atsargi ir nuosaiki. Viskam saikas dera. Kaip sako Aristotelis, Aukso vidurio visur reikia laikytis.
