Hard Kernels

Fundamental and very powerful abstracts have throughout history yielded bloody conflict, and today is no exception.  Reading Mr. Schwarz’ contribution to this site suggests introducing the notion of the hard kernel, frequently  linked to aberrant or localized reactions or individuals, usually because their internal logic or chemistry is not understood or accepted.  For the sake of argument, we can look at a pocket of terrorists and/or dogmatic positions which harden in the face of fact as examples. The Vatican, in announcing the formation of The Catholic – Muslim Forum, detailed a few boundary conditions. Applying these observations to the environment faced by ground forces in Pakistan  brings abstracts of  L’Esprit du Terrorisme and Janette Rainwater to the immediacy of a daily body count.

Further refinement of this notion requires including the idea that a vertically integrated organization extending to the very remote is engaged on a real time basis.  Indirect but persuasive evidence that this is the case is comes in the form of imagery clearly related and of unknown origin.  Extensive experimental work needs be done if reliable interpretation of this is to be accepted, but an opening observation may be a guide.  To extract from working drafts:

  • A shareholders meeting erupted when preferred shareholders discovered a scheme engineered by the common stockholders to take a windfall profit out of the company at their expense.  Gunfire ensued and the two who conceived the scheme quietly left.  A third followed them.  It seems the the meeting was held in the jungle, and the lone stockholder watched as the jungle creatures, led by a large snake, seemed about to devour the two.  The scene became too indistinct to allow a reliable description of the conclusion.  After a short period of time, an attractive two seat convertible with the top down emerged.  (12-2-08)

From this, we probably have a metaphor generated by remote beings for what is happening in Africa.  Reaction to Copenhagen COP 15, political combat in the United States’ quest for health care reform, development of and attempts to repair damage from the subprime market failure graphically demonstrate the clear understanding these remote beings have for the need to balance control oligopolies exert by introducing fresh entrepreneurial thinking.

Interpretation and Application

Managing scope and complexity of  chronic friction in the Middle East requires closely coordinating multiple disciplines, each focused on a hard kernel. By their nature, these kernels have mutated. If a kernel is taken as defining a particular space in a particular time and that definition is workable, managing complex dynamics involved can be separated into layers of abstraction ranging from the suicide vest to arguments over the path to salvation, both in the Judeo-Christian and Muslim camps.  Working drafts include yet another impression worth repeating:

  • A couple of humans walked in on what turned out to be an android war game.  They watched helpless as the battle escalated.  It went from battle axes through white phosphorous and was approaching nuclear exchanges.  The humans told the androids they were leaving.  The androids said it was too late, the first nuke was set to go.  The androids let it drop that they would probably blow the planet to pieces.  At that point, the humans found a radio transmitter which would, if activated, immobilize the androids.  Group after group were immobilized, but the nuke was ticking.  An angel descended and decided that one of her planets was not going to be destroyed in a war game.  She disabled the nuke and the androids.  Whether any attempt to dispose of the junk accumulated during the game was not apparent before the sequence dissolved. – A very large red truck started moving north on Rt. 209. -  A muddy truck, possibly World War I vintage, prepared to pass another vehicle.

Tracking more or less the same time period brings us to the chain of events, largely legislation, that yielded the subprime market failure and consequent credit market collapse.  Reason says the hard kernels in this environment will mutate as special interests and their lobbying organizations storm Capitol Hill.  Considering this dynamic, it probably makes sense to mine the subprime credit crisis for hard kernels and either correlate analyses or construct parallels with the “war on terror” and look for interaction.

As the Triad has a favored reasoning base for religious extremism, so it has for the credit crisis. The Janszen macro analysis and the Wikipedia time line are favored by the Triad.  A recent analysis of the GM rescue plan introduces yet another candidate for hard kernel mining.

Although dormant for a period, fallout from the “war on drugs” has resurfaced with a vengeance in Central America.  Another in the family of interactive hard kernels.  A subject as universal as is this must take a prominent place in reading reactions to IPv8 probing and reaction.  Level of detail included in this macro is demonstrated in this Phase VI reaction.

  • A chap caught a new high speed train, got off before his proper stop, and found himself stranded in a neighborhood resembling the South Bronx during its most violent stage.  (6.4.10)

Continued probing using IPv8 as a data gathering network seems to have collected an opinion remote beings have regarding the use of clandestine cell systems to advance whatever objectives the parent organization has in mind.  A reaction to this practice could be one interpretation of these Phase VIII impressions.

  • An abrasive story, the root of which was the military’s assumption that it could conscript androids into the Special Forces – A splitting axe  (7.31.10)
  • A story about a woman who had a particular quality – The end of a succession of blunders saw her executed for murder.  More complete investigation revealed the fact that the murder did not take place.  An environment of contagious outrage followed.  The old man arrived on the scene when deterioration in the society had reached dangerous proportions and tried to reconstitute the victim with no success.  The devil then tried.  Failure again.  The old man remarked; “There is one other.”  This one had neither been mentioned nor seen.  Success  ( 9.6.10)
