    GENIUS AS LONELY, PROPHET, BLACK, Conrad

    Genius is a lonely domain; it may be a summons from God in
    classical terms.  Indeed, God has - after long service to the
    dedicated practice of goodness and the search for its elements -
    shocked me into a new posture as Prophet.  In disbelief yet
    understood, like Socrates and others facing the Oracle and
    Angels, I proceed.  I am wise; the wisest and chosen instrument
    of God's divine will.  This is a posture I have rejected all of my
    life, for myself, and suspicious of imposters or cons or rogue
    theologians or cult leaders.
     
    In this same express Meditation, I think of Conrad Black who
    has sinned but not clearly committed criminal acts.  It is
    axiomatic that no man or woman is beyond the law; nor
    shall he or she be abused by it for sins falling outside the
    strictly defined criminal realm.
     
    Conrad Black speaks openly about the preservation of the
    constitutional apparatus, yet well above the heads of most -
    a communicative error or blunder.
     
    I could join you in the debauchery, the feasting on his
    gluttonous corpse, but in the end I will resist this tempta-
    tion as unbecoming to a Prophet ... for both his wife
    Barbara and his public daughter A. appeal to me or some
    of my appetites.  Barbara is a conservative 'woman' of
    literary significance - a 'babe' of kinds long before the
    Chicago spotlight and spectacle of recent litigious kind
    and within prosecutorial grasps.  I could swoop down
    upon Barbara in all my glory as public intellectual and
    governor and Leader of the Good Movement to preserve
    human dignity.  This with the added twist of capitalist
    and common law master and Baron.
     
    To assist my efforts - my mischief, I could speak
    about, in learned fashion, 'one's day in court', 'how one
    cannot always get what one wants', 'how Conrad got
    what he deserved by crossing the line and by being so
    rude and insensitive', 'how his greed became excessive',
    'how one man should not be so materially surrounded
    or adorned with the additional clutches of beauty', 'how,
    like Chin, he possessed unreasonable desires for himself',
    'how he took legal risks and simply lost - he knew the
    game and the nature of the score and meal cards at
    the National Club and elsewhere' ...
    ... but that would make me (to be continued ...)
     
    It would make me a gross predator along with the other
    media icons and barons, disenchanted law professors and
    lawyers and CEOs, writers and editors and publishers and
    advertising salesmen and publication designers, politicians
    and prosecutors, undereducated priests and ministers, let
    alone the leagues of newspaper devouring stay-at-home
    moms and soccer afficianados as well as investment 
    bankers, movie stars, artists and Sch. A bankers and 
    Trust operators, public servants and judges and ex-
    diplomats ...
     
    The Oracle or God has spoken to me - "I have made
    you the Great Man of Intellect, Capital and Spirit that
    you are so that you could save Conrad Black at this time
    of debauchery, cruelty and despair for the Good.  You
    must indeed be the wisest in managing the contemporary
    technocracy as lead scientist, technologist and spiritualist -
    my Chosen Voice and Embodiment."
     
    Let us be clear - C. Black is an intellectually, and by visible
    race and economic circumstances, privileged 'boy' and
    'man' at law and under socio-psychological constructions.
    He is also one of the greatest social capitalists or
    conservatives in the history of men and women.  When
    I appoint him Baron as such, he knows that a magnificent
    intellect and leader has spoken through God's will.  And
    so I write this for him and his family and his few true and
    sufficiently intelligent and empowered friends.
     
    It is not a crime or civil wrong to be expressly materially
    successful and legally ambitious, especially when serving
    as a check against Big and Gluttonous Government with
    its desires for growth and survival and legitimacy.  Indeed,
    in some fields it is a mere professional communications
    necessity.  Perhaps the greatest sin was to marry buxome
    Barbara, yet Barbara's appeal to him transcends smart
    fitness and love of high fashion and its challenges - it is
    a more spirited encounter blessed by the winds.
     
    Posner is a republican polemicist, not a true judge.  Black
    engaged in a corporate governance test case ala Denning,
    as he is compensated to do by shareholders and others as
    one of the world's most skilled press barons and stewards
    over public and private resources.  It is stardom in this
    respect that attracts capital or investors, with the
    accompanying joy that is C. Black - both entertainer-
    comedian and 'advocate'.
     
    Let me be clear, I speak as competitor to Conrad Black
    and Barbara Amiel Black, yet fair play and a theory of
    good governance when one is dominant (even through
    one's own achievements) is part of the truly Great
    Baron's life.  In fact, Conrad and Barbara are among
    the small group of truly great rivals to my empire.
    Once again, acts of civility also mark equilibrium in
    the best of the competitive spirit, and so I speak as
    Chief Justice of The International Beacon Court /
    Le Tribunal du Balise.  I do so impartially because
    abstinence would constitute a serious wrong in the
    circumstances despite Conrad finding the upside to
    life in prison.  Birks (?) on mind.  (to be continued ...)
     
    It is not appropriate to aclimatize him to persons
    of my stripe - from the disenfranchised class or
    significantly less empowered by birth and birth
    place - via a jail term or even clinical sessions.
    His absence of compassion for persons of this socio-
    political class, via his birth rights and birth place,
    is not a punitive factor at criminal law.  Certainly
    not in the subject forms.
     
    So just as he provided an advocate's grace to the
    great technocrat and experienced U.S. President
    Nixon - I do the same for him and encourage him to
    continue fighting the effective 'impeachment' for
    skilled corporate governance conduct.
     
    TO BE CONTINUED ...  (no later than August 26)
     
    Your gluttony is balanced against your heart for
    those who work hard to maintain a dignified and
    intelligent civilization - through mind and smart
    courtesy.  Had you been truly greedy, you would
    have been a billionaire not a mere millionaire.
     
    TO BE CONTINUED ... (no later than August 28 ...)
     
    Perhaps I am or remain a diligent and 
    dispassionate friend of not only justice but of
    you and your family and of the media, spirit and
    material worlds because justice and good deeds and
    respect for sound laws do matter.  Dispassionately
    yet always within the proper passions, and
    intelligently, I have ruled as stated.
     
    As one of your true competitors, I should be
    rejoicing in your disgrace and fall, but I cannot
    and do not wish to since justice is why we are
    here fighting evil with delicacy, exploring space,
    travelling across the globe, living in safely built
    dwellings and enjoying international cuisine, ...
    despite the gross mischief of North American
    and other governments who continue to violate
    Canadian, and American airspace in violation of
    the duties to protect citizens from gross privacy
    and bodily integrity rights.  So the governments
    and their wings have turned against simply because
    they are properly threatened by private sector
    constitutional pillars created to protect democracy,
    and contain big government and its historic
    unruly tendencies.  Punishment for virtuous
    conduct is a form of corruption, and further
    corruptibility long contemplated by political
    and juridical theorists and empiricists and
    practitioners.  Therefore, the fight to contain
    the governmental aristocracy remains fierce
    and, once again - virtuous, because such happens
    to protect the dignity of each person when
    it has always been too easy for governments to
    crush the individual with a collective for power,
    for market share, for wealth, for the attractions.
    I know these movements all too well and their
    pervasive corrupting missions so to preserve the
    narrow, the 'entitled' bureaucrats of secrecy and
    machinations of state and other bodies as the
    leviathan grumbles into increasing nastiness and
    not the nobility of the savage within - like the
    innate contemplated by certain ancient Greek
    pedestrian thinkers rendered famous by the
    literate and their beneficiaries.

    CANADA AS UNSTABLE FOR TRADE, BUSINESS

    Canada is placed on watch list as unstable for normal trade
    and business relations in light of certain breakdowns in
    Canadian constitutional structures including the protection
    of private information and real property, business or trade
    secrets, and, due process.  This adds to and simply reflects
    concern already revealed through the watch warning to
    foreigners contemplating travel to Ottawa, Montreal, and
    other parts of Canada.  Pending litigation, embargos and
    further trade restrictions and sanctions likely to be imposed;
    business and governments are placed on due notice as
    an internally sufficient economy further organizes to address
    external and internal legal forces working as international
    and domestic legal provisions in action.  Trade with U.S.
    likely to fall dramatically as trade relations with even
    China - as great human rights violator with significant
    and threatening expropriation system - is significantly
    subject to international forces containing gross offender
    states.

    CONRAD BLACK AND I IN CONVERSATION, MY DOCTRINE OF ENLIGHTENED AMERICAN RENAISSANCE RESTRAINT, AND, AN EXPANDED TRIPOLAR PEACE FORMULA FOR MIDEAST

     
    Conrad Black remains in jail yet writes, and lately with less puff -
    as discussed by me in earlier works.  Although I will disagree
    with him on the makeup and structure of the new geopolitical
    order which will lead to better peace and stability, he shall not
    be failed by me on this occasion but only placed in check.
     
    ON THE GLOBAL ORDER, AMERICA'S ROLE, AND MY DOCTRINE
    OF ENLIGHTENED RENAISSANCE RESTRAINT FOR THE U.S.
     
    Setting aside a detailed discussion of U.S. energy and trade
    policy and accounts management, the role of Roosevelt in
    defining a post-isolationist American foreign policy, I will
    swiftly turn to my vision for the 21st century geopolitical
    order in juxtaposition to not only Black but also Kagan and
    Fukiyama whom he discusses in a recent article, and Chomsky
    whom I have failed because of his misunderstanding of the
    nature of the structured corporations of the 21st century.
     
    Black's "Grand Alliance" thesis needs to be checked since
    his abandonment of a nouveau multipolar formula
    within my Nouveau Internationalism framework is
    dangerous and out of step with sound American initiatives
    of the last 200 years.  Instead, the U.S. and the world
    need to work within an enlightened American doctrine
    of renaissance restraint straddling both isolationist and
    post-isolationist, interventionist movements and alliances.
    This renewed part of the American domestic and global
    ethos is critical and prophetic.  Although procedural
    justice paradigms need to be adjusted in a number of
    non liberal democratic states for their own salvation,
    a multipolar socio-eco-rationalism must prevail.  This
    must be done with a New Tripolarism in the Middle
    East, all of which to be discussed by me in a book
    and series of with lectures and commentaries in the
    upcoming months.
     
    ON A NEW MIDEAST EXPANDED TRIPOLARISM
    CENTRED UPON LEBANON
     
    The Middle East peace crisis in plural form may be
    resolved by employing my expanded tripolar formula
    involving not only Palestinians, the people of Israel
    and Lebanon but Jordan, Syria, Egypt, Iran and
    Turkey.
     
    This is why Fukiyama's optimitic manifest liberalism,
    Black's Grand Alliance and Kegan's 1914 Great Power
    system renaissance proposals must fail along further
    applications of the Bush-Powell-Rice doctrines.
     
    An illustration of American renaissance restraint
    includes certain interventions in Lebanon through a
    troubling period of American interventionism.  America
    might and should serve as procedural justice force
    within a renewed nouveau isolationism in comparison
    with the activities of autocratic states with a view to
    observing reforms to poor deterrence and justice
    apparatuses.  This is my doctrine of American Restraint
    Renaissance in application in the Middle East.
     
    This doctrine can bettter serve the ushering into a new
    era of global federalism which in some ways shall
    model the American pluralist and federalist experience
    with centralizing and decentralizing tensions and
    frameworks of constitutional kind at work for the
    betterment of human dignity.  This is a new justice
    and prosperity paradigm which affirms the best of
    historic and contemporary thinking in a post-
    League of Nations and UN world.
     
    See my MidEast Peace Framework and related works
    including blog entries to advance comprehension of
    the elements of these formula or a new era in world
    affairs and international relations, classically construed.
