Obama in Egypt - One useless Speech more
printObama in Egypt - One useless Speech more
The world is now in a free fall in politics, economics, ecology and culture. But the most important Person of this world, VIP Obama Barack, President of the United States, was having a fine Speech in front of Arab students in Cairo.
Well, this is the world we are living in. All Media world-wide are now analyzing and shreddering some bits and aspects of this speech.
Simultaneously, the Wall Street Crash went over in a total Clash of Real Economy. Ecologic problems of the future cannot be cured with quadrillions of Dollars. The dullness in Culture has exploded since 50 years and philosophy does not count anymore.
Let's see the errors and weaknesses of Obama's Speech:
Israel, Iran, Afghanistan, Iraq, Arabs in general
1500 million Muslims and Arabs are opposing to some 6 million Israelis in view of the misbehaviour of the Jews vis-à-vis of Palestine. Let's assume, the wonder would happen and 2 States would get in existence - what would change? All the experience of the last 50 years with Israel cannot be wiped out, not the assistance of Taliban that made Al Qaeda, bin Laden and 9/11 and not the stupid politics of USA and Europeans in the Middle East since 1950.
This speech does not change anything to the lessening of Oil in those lands, the truth about the war or Hussein with help of USA against Iran, the explosion of population, not to be controlled anymore in future in Indonesia, Israel and Palestine, China, India and all the rest.
Armaments, atom power, industry
We have here problems that are 1000 times higher than the question, if Iran gets a little bomb. We only have 3 Atom powers: USA, Russia and China. They would prevent any greater attempt to use atom bombs or missiles, even before Israel, Iran, Pakistan, India, France, England, South Africa or North Korea would start with it.
We have the problem that a world with over 7 billion folks can no longer be governed, not even by Barack and Putin and Hu and Wen, even under the supposition, all would be the best friends ever in future.
We have still in all Balance Sheets of Banks, Insurance, Funds, depots etc. many trillions of Dollars or Euro in non-values represented by ABS, CMO, CDO, treasury bonds and any other always lessening values in shares, bonds, State papers, real estate etc. - and still all politicians, CEOs, NGOs, bankers, geniuses in economics do, as if everything could be reversed within the next years, when nice Barack has a nice Speech to himself - or not.
Democracy and human rights for women and children
One of the greatest bluffs ever heard is the supposed idea that democracy will be good for everything. Now, the average intellect of folks is so low, that they can any time again vote for a Hitler, Stalin, Pinochet, Milosevic, Yeltsin, Berlusconi, Bush or other types who have zero knowledge on the fundamentals of war, ecologic functioning of the planet, the rules in higher accounting, the reasons why we produce every 10 years a new bubble in economics.
So, what is democracy good for, when the wisest men have to keep their mouths shut? What is a fine speech good for, when afterwards all the big heads out of Media, Politics, Economy and other uncontrollable scrap is hammered by the method of piece-meal idiocies into the empty heads of 99 percent of folks on Earth.
Better Education for females and better food for children? Very good idea. The males brought science and philosophy in our world, that proved to be the coffin of human mankind with cars, planes, industry, using up energy stuffs, raw material, air and water. And now we need higher education of this sort even for females as well?
Nourishment for children? Sure, we have not enough of them. In some lands, 50 percent of population is less than 20 years old. These States are poor and without hope or full of illusions, like China and India, about their future.
And the "rich countries" do no longer exist - they have burdened huge indebtedness on the next 10 generations to come and made explode their deficits into trillions.
Conclusion
I know what Speech Obama should have spelled out in front of young folks in Egypt. However, as it is now, any of his words are completely useless and hollow - in view of the present state of affairs on this planet.
But still, all world-media will be very happy, shreddering some comments of no-brains over the world that gets rotten just now.
And all what Obama did in his first 100 Days, was to increase the errors of the Reagan and Bush era.
Any politician can do so. But the effects cannot be hidden, as long as some higher brains can see the future insurmountable problems - and write reports like this one here.
