Biden Wants More Wars - Bliken Tells Davos
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken's recent speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, where he discusses the supposed increased demand for US intervention globally, US "intervention" simply means more weapons and more Political posturing that leads to increased chances of War. Here are some key takeaways:
Increased Demand for US Leadership:
Blinken claims there's a greater global demand for US engagement and leadership in resolving conflicts and challenges like the Israel-Hamas war and the Russia-Ukraine conflict. FACT, US has not resolved either conflict and worked hard to many years creating those conflicts.
He believes many governments see Washington as key to finding solutions and want US presence, leadership, and participation in addressing crises. FACT, US has no solutions apart from powering up the Military Industrial Complex.
Reimagining Partnerships:
Blinken emphasizes the need for Washington to "reimagine" its geopolitical partnerships to effectively address global challenges.
He highlights Biden's efforts in re-engaging with allies and building new coalitions for an increased level of conflict on specific issues like dealing with China and Russia.
US Investments and Seriousness:
Blinken argues that domestic investments by the Biden administration, like infrastructure projects and climate technology, demonstrate US seriousness despite internal dysfunction.
He believes these investments reassure allies and partners of US commitment to tackling global issues.
Ukraine War and Peace Prospects:
Blinken sees no near-term prospects for a negotiated settlement in Ukraine due to a lack of "good faith" from Russian leadership.
He emphasizes the importance of respecting Ukraine's territorial integrity and sovereignty as prerequisites for peace talks.
Israel-Hamas Conflict and Casualties:
Blinken denies accusations of valuing Jewish lives more than Palestinian lives in the Gaza conflict.
He acknowledges the suffering on both sides but claims US engagement helped minimize civilian casualties and deliver humanitarian aid.
Overall, the article portrays Blinken as advocating for a more proactive and engaged US role in global conflicts while acknowledging challenges and complexities on various fronts.
America as a driver of conflict:
Military interventions: The US has a long history of military interventions in other countries, some of which have contributed to instability and conflict. Examples include the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, which many argue destabilized the region and fueled the rise of terrorist groups.
Foreign policy: US foreign policy, driven by interests like securing access to resources or promoting democracy, can sometimes create tensions and disagreements with other countries. This can lead to conflict, either directly or indirectly through proxy wars.
Economic disparities: The vast global economic disparity created by the US and many other countries can lead to resentment and instability, creating fertile ground for conflict. US economic policies and trade practices contribute to these disparities.
What KXCO Is, and Why the Hard Problem Was Never Intelligence
The prevailing enthusiasm assumes the hard problem is intelligence. It is not. It is that banks, hospitals, courts and governments are being asked to let software act on their behalf with no way to establish who decided, on what basis, or whether the record will still read in a decade. KXCO founder Shayne Heffernan sets out the architecture that answers those questions, drawn as a graph, and argues that properly constructed AI is an amplifier of human judgement rather than a replacement for it.
AI Intelligence Scales. Accountability Does Not. Why KXCO Is Built for It.
Capability is becoming abundant and everything abundant gets cheap. What does not get cheap is the person who has to sign, and they can only carry what they can see. Four conditions follow from that, and four independent authorities reached the first of them last month without knowing it.
AI is the Neat Handwriting of the Illiterate
A model in the hands of someone who has read the filing and walked the plant is a clerk. The same model, speaking for someone who has done neither, is a disguise. On AI slop, phantom citations and factslop, why finish stopped being evidence of work, and the containment layer KXCO built so a machine cannot speak as the institution until a source is attached.
Worthship: Do Not Conform to the Age
Worthship is the older English word for worship, and it means to ascribe worth. Bishop Robert Barron preached Romans 12 on 30 August. This essay follows the text into the prison letters, and puts two questions to a graph: do the four readings of that Sunday agree, and was Paul free or in chains when he wrote about despair?
