China Today, Defence Talk

Robert Bellah comments on Mr. Bush’s presentation at West Point in June of 2002 and the Sept. of 2002 national security strategy in which he conveyed the meaning that “no nation will be allowed to surpass, or even equal, the United States as a military power”. The term balance of power was used several times. Mr. Bellah maintains that “it is very unclear what the phrase can mean in a situation where we have all the power and no one else would have anything to balance it with”. He goes on to wonder what the logical ground is for the administration’s position that it has a mission to export what it considers the template for democracy. Now that there is a new administration with a horizontally opposed philosophy and a population gradually beginning to realize that time is not extending, fresh thinking is called for.

Competition between the United States, Russia, and China is alive and well. Russia’s riposte to the United States military is energy. Russia has an energy reserve and the US does not. Russia is courting the 1.5 billion Muslims and the United States has been marginalizing them. The man in the street sees China’s gambit as 1.3 billion people, centrally managed, and at this stage of development considered human capital to be transformed to treasury and/or ground forces. At this rate insects will inherit an earth severely debilitated not only by conflict by also by abuse and neglect. The Triad proposes adapting a novel balancing system.

Concept

The Macrotermes termite cultivates a particular fungus which predigests the termites’ food. This process raises the oxygen requirement for the thirty foot high mounds in which they live to the amount needed by a cow. The fungus, Termitomyces, is one of a species competing for resources in the mound. Other species of fungus are not able to sustain the synergistic relationship with the termite. A process exists which causes the termites to spend considerable energy and ingenuity to continuously modify the mound so as to maintain internal atmospheric conditions measurably different from those outdoors for the benefit of the Termitomyces. This process is regulated by biochemical variables generated by the species themselves. The Triad proposes that introducing a properly designed virtual organization will move the global process for Homo sapiens one step closer to this high value template. copyright © Natural History Magazine, Inc. 2002, Used with permission

There is some reason to believe remote beings have a view on this.  To extract from the working drafts:

• Some people fleeing with their belongings through very dry dusty terrain.  A window box containing red geraniums – I had go run an errand to a Habsburg-Lorraine building in Europe.  Evan showed up, armed and angry.  After a while, he tossed the hand gun.  Then my ex passed by, old and withered.  Finally, Amanda whipped  through, asking why we were there.  I told her I was running an errand,  She said, oh, and left.  Following that, a gorilla came looking for her.  He asked what was going on.  I said I was running an errand and they were helping.  The gorilla said he would fetch Amanda.  She returned, saw my point and shoot camera and left a better one.  Shortly thereafter, a handsome prince came looking for her.

Alternate Applications

The Termite mounds offer one conceptual approach, uniquely suited to building a bridge to the primordial. A second example, more completely grounded, is functional in the crude oil exploration and development area. This combination, carefully designed, would expand the degrees of freedom in some chronically failed negotiations.  The third, and favored option, is an expandable organization with a core skill set augmented by a related virtual component.  Designing this organization has taken a step closer to reality with preliminary successes in developing IPv8 as a multilateral communications network.  This position is reflected in this Phase VIII impression:

• Bjorn Borg, having seen the shoebox photos, became curious about the author’s Swedish lineage.  When he found out, he insisted on giving some short tennis lessons and arranged a trip to Sweden.  He gave the impression that the ancestry carried with it some privileges there. (9.2.10)
