LIBERTY. EQUALITY. HUMANITY. A GOVERMENT OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE, FOR THE PEOPLE. THESE ARE OUR VALUES
noviembre 19, 2015 § Deja un comentario
Probably the most influential speech in the History of Civilization after the Sermon on the Mount or the so-called “Beatitudes speech” of Jesus of Nazareth in Matthew 5: 3-12, with a force capable of condensing as rarely happens in History some ideas yet revolutionary and humanitarian in less than 300 words.
151 years ago, a day like today, after a cruel civil war, someone sayed…
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate — we can not consecrate — we can not hallow — this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.

Préambule : Nous, peuples des Nations Unies,
Résolus
à préserver les générations futures du fléau de la guerre qui deux fois en l’espace d’une vie humaine a infligé à l’humanité d’indicibles souffrances,
à proclamer à nouveau notre foi dans les droits fondamentaux de l’homme, dans la dignité et la valeur de la personne humaine, dans l’égalité de droits des hommes et des femmes, ainsi que des nations, grandes et petites,
à créer les conditions nécessaires au maintien de la justice et du respect des obligations nées des traités et autres sources du droit international,
à favoriser le progrès social et instaurer de meilleures conditions de vie dans une liberté plus grande,
Et à ces fins
à pratiquer la tolérance, à vivre en paix l’un avec l’autre dans un esprit de bon voisinage,
à unir nos forces pour maintenir la paix et la sécurité internationales,
à accepter des principes et instituer des méthodes garantissant qu’il ne sera pas fait usage de la force des armes, sauf dans l’intérêt commun,
à recourir aux institutions internationales pour favoriser le progrès économique et social de tous les peuples,
Avons décidé d’associer nos efforts pour réaliser ces desseins
en conséquence, nos gouvernements respectifs, par l’intermédiaire de leurs représentants, réunis en la ville de San Francisco, et munis de pleins pouvoirs reconnus en bonne et due forme, ont adopté la présente Charte des Nations Unies et établissent par les présentes une organisation internationale qui prendra le nom de Nations Unies.

Vendredi 13 noire en France. Horreur et le Mal à Paris.
noviembre 14, 2015 § 1 comentario
Domine, Dona eis requiem. Et Lux perpetua luceat eis. Requiescat in pacem. Amen.
#PrayforParis
Face à l’horreur et le Mal pur la première réponse devrait être le silence et la solidarité avec les victimes et leurs familles de l’une des attaques terroristes les plus odieux de ces dernières années, qui totalise maintenant plus de 120 morts et 300 blessés, selon les dernières sources françaises, et la condamnation des faits comentidos par des fanatiques criminels.
Plus tard viendra l’analyse calme des faits dans le contexte de la géopolitique actuelle.

Refugees crisis: What is really creepy beyond Valletta Summit
noviembre 12, 2015 § Deja un comentario
Posted also as a comment approved on the online Journal “Times of Malta” via http://www.timesofmalta.com/articles/view/20151110/opinion/Beyond-Valletta-Summit.591589 (see the original article, it is is very interesting)
I’m in the world of NGOs related to the immigration issue, although I receive no incomes whatsoever. I count myself among those people doubly pissed off by how it is carrying out a process that, despite the pompous objectives of the summit of La Valletta and the good intentions of development cooperation and investment, ends up being a deal refugee quota as if were a contest to see who sits at the table of the yet opulent Europe -in comparative terms, of course- the largest number of refugees.
Dark officials in Brussels, without any democratic legitimacy, say there are working to correct this, but some bureaucratic sources acknowledge that while Europe would still have a conservative majority, it will be difficult to get to other approaches.
We already know. I will not spread here about the European process and drift that has taken at least since the adoption of the TEU, completely neoliberal and marking since its inception a deficit of alarming democratic legitimacy, to the glory of free movement is built goods and capital under the pretext of a “European citizenship” for citizens. Many are practically on the street because of that policy, which, incidentally, was not only European but world, including the United States. But even in this, we have been more “papists” Chicago Boys that no European Treasury or anything. Everything is a pure sham and a scam. It is not surprising that the refugee crisis, without a socialist really humane alternative, will not be able to spend the meager amount of money needed to make viable investment projects in the origin and manage well the European budget items aimed to development cooperation, it will end in a tragedy of biblical proportions. All because European social democracy has failed to return to its origins and to fight the discourse of cultural hegemony in the field of unique thought of the IMF, the World Bank, the ECB and other criminal organizations defenders of ultra-liberalism and whose name should be pronounced: savage and inhuman capitalism.
