Why
I act is because I can.
Where I can why wouldn't I?
Here's my thoughts on the petition and why I've elected to
extend the close date to Tuesday 7 August 2018.
Poster image we used on a few A1 size coreflute boards to inform potential petition signees.
This blog penned through the afternoon Tuesday 24 July the earlier date set for close of signatures, and finalised in the wee hours of Wednesday 25 July - the Day Out of Time in the Mayan Calendar.
The petition is ultimately directed at open government and
transparency - currently government is a swamp next to a sea of lies and fake news.
Recent
context – the Swedish sexual assault allegations and charge now
dropped. Text of letter to editor in Wellington's Dominion Post.
Responding
to David Mulcock 23 July letter "The Assange Case"
Admission
I initiated the petition to the NZ Parliament "Provide Julian
Assange permanent political asylum in New Zealand" Government
link http://bit.ly/2KV6yzu
There
are no rape charges outstanding against Wikileaks editor Julian
Assange see webpage "Justice For Assange"
https://justice4assange.com/
Sweden
has withdrawn charges and the women involved in the matter David
Mulcock references acknowledged they were pressured by Swedish police
to press charges.
Calling
Assange a rapist is probably actionable at law - defamation.
It
is stated by NZ Government that we support rule of law and United
Nations system. UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention decision of
February 2016:
https://justice4assange.com/UN-Working-Group-Decision.html
states in para 99;
"Disposition:
In the light of the foregoing, the Working Group renders the
following opinion:
The
deprivation of liberty of Mr. Assange is arbitrary and in
contravention of articles 9 and 10 of the Universal Declaration of
Human Rights and articles 7, 9(1), 9(3), 9(4), 10 and 14 of the
International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights....."
David
Mulcock please consider facts.
NZ
please support Assange so he can support the enlightenment of all our
democracies.
Truth
matters – Wikileaks and Julian Assange hate fake news.

This
morning along with two female colleagues I stood in the cold with
paper copies of the parliament petition; “Provide Julian Assange
with Political Asylum in New Zealand”
We
arrived at about 8:15am and remained in the cold conditions at the
front entrance of the Wellington Central Railway station till 10:30pm
or thereabouts. We collectively collected about 80 signatures on the
petition.
The
online petition is now over 1200 signatures and we've collected
approximately 200 from the station and Johnsonville Mall and Fresh
Produce Market on Sunday 22 July. We'll now do more collections on
paper where we able. You can help in this respect too.
At Wellington railway station I
watched a stream of people who mostly politely refused the proffered
opportunity to participate in democratic process to aid a fellow in
obvious trouble. Many smiled, perhaps they thought our efforts were a
joke given the ultimate target which underlies the object – to
protect Julian Assange from the predation of Empire represented in
the political and legal structure known in our world as United States of
America (land of the free and brave).Julian's immediate antagonist is the switching allegances of the Ecuador state since it's alteration in the personality that heads the state. The people who signed knew what the issue is about and how it matters, ethical and strategic thinkers - insight backed by integrity.
If we wish for a benign and provident state the people need to act. We
through our acts and omissions co-create the ordered objective reality. Which world order? Diverse or someone's idea of a greater good New World Order where the powerless do badly.
Where
we fail to exercise our magical and spiritual value as democratic
participants the overall democracy is diminished.
Where
many of us withdraw positive energy and political power other
interests prevail
Fact:
the paid for and corporate interest is always at work.
Civilisation - everyone says they want it – what is it's nature?
What
is civilisation?
What
is the long trend of what passes for our civilisation?
The full exchange took place at the 11th hour of Sunday night 22 July and promises to have a chapter two.
So
what of our civilisation, now in it's decadent stage - where next?
The
trend is not good when one surveys the globe. We are part of the
planetary system no matter how godly the inhabitants feel about their
insulation from the “problem of the world.”
Politics, democracy - political economy - how the system informs itself
Any
system - natural, digital, mechanical, biological is only as good as
the information that guides its work.
At
the micro level is the cell, we require well functioning cells for
our human entity's efficient and healthy functioning.
A
cell has sensors and receptors to inform itself of its reality –
see paper “Sentinels at the wall: cell wall receptors and sensors”
For the cell
to optimise its performance the sensors need to function to
interpret the outer environment.
At
a macro level the social cell, that is the democracy of the political
economy might similarly require accurate information to ensure its
efficient functioning.
What
streams of information inform the democracy?
The
ravings of the main stream media? Of recent;
The headlines screamed Skripal and Russia dunnit.
They screamed Douma Gas attack and Syria dunnit.
They screamed Iran dunnit so Trump can respond to fairy dust and pull out of the Iran nuclear deal.
The headlines screamed Skripal and Russia dunnit.
They screamed Douma Gas attack and Syria dunnit.
They screamed Iran dunnit so Trump can respond to fairy dust and pull out of the Iran nuclear deal.
For
the record there was no Novichok and no Russian was involved aside
from Sergei Skripal and his unlucky daughter.
For
the record there was no Douma Gas attack and the Organisation for
Prevention of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) has confirmed that.
For
the record the Iranians have not breached the Nuclear deal – but
who cares about facts - hey Mr President!
There
have been numerous examples scattered through modern, ancient and all
the bits of history in between.
Flowing
from these false flag events, the world has wasted a massive amount
of people, resources, energy as well as create a toxic environment.
Disaster is an improvement on the bottom line as someone is going to
pay for the clean up – or worse leave the mess.
To
cure the problem of impunity where the people are sold war on false
pretences I propose a solution
In my paper to the UN Periodic Review of New Zealand I proposed that New Zealand's Official Information Act Sec 6 Grounds for withholding information is amended to include a public interest test to allow an argument before the courts to allow me to assert the New Zealand or any other government is acting unlawfully to engage in acts of aggressive war - Afghanistan and Iraq plus more in the Global War on Terror (GWOT), complicity after the fact, and covering up the facts of the Crimes through effectively classifying them state secrets.

Until
I achieve my objective to open government to the people it is
supposed to care for and serve - whistleblowers provide some insight
into the swamp and deep state actions.
Whistleblowers
are supposed to be protected heroes and heroines, however the truth is
they are oppressed and persecuted for their gifts toward the goal of
transparency and accountability.
Who
or what institution protects whistleblowers?
Wikileaks
provides a 100% anonymous guarantee to any whistleblower. Wikileaks
nor it's editor Julian Assange have revealed a source.
Chelsea Manning who gave us the Collateral Murder video evidence of the killing of 20 people including Reuters reporters in Iraq in 2007 was outed through another source.

Empire
and particularly the US hates Wikileaks and its editor Julian
Assange.
His
story is outlined in many places, it is not my intent to reiterate
the known.

I
focus on institutional alteration with my acts in the democracy
For
instance in respect to the 9/11 Crime I ask, How
would it change the world, if the 9/11 Commission Report narrative is
proven to be officially false?
Capture
from 9/11 interview with my friend Lisa Er on GreenPlanetFM.
In the
explanation I provide my thinking and some of the material that makes
the official conspiracy described in the 9/11 Commission report a
physical impossibilty. That is for the 9/11 Commission version of the
conspiracy to be real – it was a special day in the history of the
universe as another set of laws were repealed or suspended by a
supreme entity - the laws of physics are denied.
Now
to be fair Julian Assange, other socalled heroes of the common man
and his plight in the care of our collectice governments, both George
Monbiot and Noam Chomsky have not only denied the official conspiracy
is false, they have gone out of their way to denigrate the studious
and open minded scientists, researchers and critical thinkers such as
myself who know that the offical narrative is a concotion of
hollywood in league with the deep state and aided by foreign powers
to the US political state.
Julian
Assange has interesting intelligence reports on the Wikileaks site
which outlines incredible back stories about who was involved in the
organisation
and money
in the scenery behind the 9/11 Crime.

Imagine
the impact on the action of potential whistleblowers were Julian
Assange and Wikileaks to be shut down - who is the watchdog?
Why kill our own watchdog?
Why kill our own watchdog?
Wikileaks
is one of the democracy's sensors, providing vital information as to
the civilisation brain or ordering system – our governments.
Where
our governments attack Wikileaks they attack the democracy.
Where
they attack the democracy they attack us.
Ever
hear of a thing called the Class War?
It's
an undeclared covert war using every means available to strip value
from the human inhabitants on the wrong
side of the Class divide.
Austerity is but one weapon employed to control the battle field and ensure the fruits of the battle (spoils of the war) are distributed in big heaps to some and not much to the 99%.
Austerity is but one weapon employed to control the battle field and ensure the fruits of the battle (spoils of the war) are distributed in big heaps to some and not much to the 99%.
I
want to assist the vitalisation of the democracy.
It
then is logical for me to ensure Wikileaks's survival. Julian Assange
as much as I can ascertain is the heart of Wikileaks. Kill Assange
and we kill Wikileaks.
Pick
a side in the war people.
George
W Bush proclaimed the war drums in the drive to 'turn Afghanistan to
rubble' with Shock and Awe, laying down the challenge, “You are
either with us or against US.”
Logicians
are required, critical thinkers, passionate, emotional inspirational
poets and musicians, all artists, sacred activists, everyone, short, tall, warts and all.
All are needed to inform the social cell called democracy
All are needed to inform the social cell called democracy
Government
is a perverse beast and of all the systems to determine how the power
of government is wielded - Democracy is the least worse system we
know of.
It
is yet to be implemented properly. It will never be implemented
unless it is well informed hold opinions whose assumptions cohere with reality.
This
twitter discussion between Michael David Berger historian and myself
considered a few answers to the
puzzle of the future – link to full discussion
Do
we allow the psychopathic
and extremely competitive leadership with the power in the
current criminal conspiracy to continue to rob the world through
terror wars, fear and paranoia? Governments on one level are large
corporations.
How is the Government allocating/distributing the resources/benefits of the commonwealth?
The
War on Terrorism has cost the US political economy US$7 trillion
dollars let alone the human and toxic carnage wreaked on our
planetary environment. Do we really think we are insulated from
nuclear fallout by virtue of our border which define our political state and geographical claim? Instead we wage war of terror on pests, oceans, land and people - systematic waging of war.
Who is the enemy?
Who is the enemy?
Or
do we act to ensure that the democracy is informed which in turn has
the effect of building confidence in the democratic participants –
we are not lunatics, the Lunatic is in charge of the modern state.
Is there a special thing happening in Aotearoa New Zealand?
Can we meet the challenge?
Can we meet the challenge?
Perhaps
there is ambition for sustainable and lawful state and global
political governance – Foreign Minister Winston Peters speech to the Otago Foreign
Policy School 29 June 2018 asking what are NZ's “Next
Steps” where he states the Government's ambition and offers a
challenge to the academy. The last three paragraphs of Winston's challenge.
We
can assist the academy inform itself about our reality? Does the view from the academy cohere with mine? Where are the points of difference and separation? Specifically, where have I bent the rules of physics of logic - or long term strategic thinking?
We
can provide Julian Assange with political asylum in New Zealand
To
facilitate the maximum response and to allow just one of the 120 New
Zealand Parliamentary Members remember where they placed their
courage, I've asked the Parliament Officer who administers
parliamentary petitions to move the close of the petition to Tuesday
7 August 2018.
To
contextualise the timing here is the relevant bit of the NZ
Parliament
sitting calendar. The days shaded green are the days of Sitting of the House. I would to close the petition and host a hand over on that or the next day.
7 August sits between Hiroshima and Nagasaki Days - democracy's nuclear moment.
The
petition became live 9 July with the initial close date set for 19
July. The parliamentary protocols require a Member to
sponsor the petition to the House. The MP does not need to support
the tenor, she is required to fulfil the protocols established in
the Parliament Standing Orders. The petition then is referred to the
appropriate select committee – my assessment is that the
#NZAsylum4AssangePetition will be referred to one of the Foreign Affairs Defence
and Trade or the Justice select committees – however that, is a
decision for the Parliament Speaker.
My
considerations about timing for the close is motivated by the urgency
of Julian Assange's plight and the developments fed through various
media. Assange's communications to the world were cut off 28 March
2018 – 3 months!
We asked the Clerk to make the first amendment to close on Tuesday 24 July to fit the
parliament sitting Calendar and to provide those that cared their opportunity to sign. Note it only requires my request to
validate the petition provided I can persuade an MP to sponsor.
Recent
rumours (be careful of the rumour mill) had it that Ecuador's
President Lenin Moreno would be undermining Assange's asylum in his
recent meeting with UK officals. That appears to be put to bed with
an announcement by the Ecuador
Foreign Office that Assange is not on the agenda.
Today Tuesday 24 July was the close of the petition and we lacked an MPs of conviction to sponsor asylum for
Assange. Accordingly I have requested the petition close 7 August. That date allows
time for the necessary to happen, the MP, petition numbers to grow, and perhaps the main stream news media to report to the New Zealand
civil-society the plight of one of their peers, and the measures
available to assist Assange continue his purpose – that is accurately inform the
democracy of what government does in our name.
Please
consider signing the petition and sharing the love:
I'll
close with this 29 second video of … OGP CEO Sanjay Pradhan calls
on all governments to build coalitions with civil society,
citizens, and others to
build governments for the people, by the people, of the people.
Well we are "we the people", we already have coalitions of civil actors and we are letting you know what we desire. So work with us and our agenda, don't set up something to undermine our credibility.
Do
we want a vital civil society and informed democracy or what?
Bring Julian Assange to Aotearoa New Zealand – our movement already has numerous offers to house him in Godzone – if you do not value truth I am pleased to advise the inhabitants of this land do and where properly informed will make a difference to this world. New Zealanders have already said no to empire.
Over
43,000 inhabitants stood for these values as representative to inform
the Esteemed Flag Committee of the people's constitutional values for a
legislated process to define the national identity – the 2015
Flag Referendum Bill. The people of the land decided to retain
their rule
of law constitutional monarchy where the Queen has Title
as Crown Representative, known as Sovereign, the person vested as
Ruler of the State.
However for all and intents and purposes the Parliament determines the legislation within the parameters it sets for itself through the Acts that it determines - legislation. Thus it is understood that Parliament it effectively sovereign and is free to make any law. Ethics might be said to mediate the moral compass of the Nation mediated through the biases of 120 representatives of the people.

The NZ Parliament members are well
within their collective Jurisdiction to take a principled stand – will it?
Enlightenment and Courage say yes.

I desire and work toward turning our civilised zeitgeist from
scarcity to abundance.
Fact:
we live in an abundant eco-system on a magical planet in a
mysteriously aware universe.
I sense the turning is now
