Question: According to an Internet analysis of ISIS’s PR campaign, the major publicists of ideas and clips are women. They are actively involved in the proliferation of videos, are more persistent, and can persuade people more concretely.

They are the ones who actually put horrible videos of murders and of children executing adults on the Internet. The question is how can a woman, a mother, view murders and death so complacently and even promote it on the Internet?

Answer: It is simple. She knows that this is how she will lead her people forward—her nation, her religion, and her children—thus attaining a brighter future for them and, more importantly, the next world for Allah. She does it with full comprehension of what makes great business.

The fact is that it is much easier to convince a woman than a man. It isn’t hard to guide her. She gives in much more easily to religious views. The same women who have read nothing in their life but a couple of “holy” books are very fanatic and easy to manage.

Islamization is a great problem for the citizens of Europe and for the world because there is no way to stop it. The Europeans are weak and cannot resist it; they don’t see the strength in themselves to fight back and put barriers to stop the spread of fanatic masses.

I don’t see any power that will be able to stop the spread of militant Islam, other than the method of integral education. Only it, due to the special force, the Upper Light, within it, can stop this green plague.

Comment: France is paying the price for a decade of a failed multicultural policy.

Aleksandra Rybińska asserts in a recent article that none of the models of immigrant integration are working: not the German model, the Gastarbeiter (immigrants as temporary, unskilled workers), not the French model of a secular enlightened country (the immigrant becomes a Frenchman and waives his own cultural identity), not the English version (the immigrant maintains his culture within the frameworks of the local community and the authorities believe that he at the same time identifies with British values).

The author concludes that France is approaching a revolution.

My Response: Not only are the French approaching a revolution. The explosion will be everywhere. The only question is: when? In spite of Europe wanting to maintain itself and maintain its roots, it won’t succeed. Its hope that the immigrants would work didn’t materialize. On the contrary, the Germans and French work on behalf of the migrants.

The immigrants don’t dissolve into the general mass of the local residents; actually it is the locals who gradually dissolve into the mass of the immigrants and convert to Islam.

Nothing is left of them. In the cultural practical sense of life, Europe has no power. It is decrepit and not ready for anything, except arranging beautiful costume parades, boasting its historical past. These are things that totally do not fit into the ensuing culture and Europe will be forced to yield.

Question: Won’t there be a revolution?

Answer: There is no need for that. Islam will conquer Europe and actively and undoubtedly enslave it. The religion of the Europeans will be Islam.

Question: In this case, what is required of Israel? Should it just watch passively from the side?

Answer: The Israelis cannot do anything except for one thing, to unite between themselves. Through unity, the Light will pass to the rest of the world and correct it.

Our attitude to what is happening should be completely passive. In no way should we interfere. The entire world is arranged as one unique unit that is connected in a totally mutual way. If we arrange for the contact of all humanity with the Upper Light, with the force of good, through us, then it will go through us to the whole world and will arrange everything needed.

In the News (Market Watch, “Don’t look now! Helicopter money is already being deployed”): “…Torsten Slok, Deutsche Bank’s chief international economist, argues that the Fed has been employing measures similar to helicopter money via its remittances to the Treasury.

“‘The Fed in 2015 paid the U.S. Treasury $117 billion and dividing that by the total number of households (125 million) shows that the Fed is already giving money to U.S. consumers,’ he said in a note on Tuesday.

“That comes out to each U.S. household receiving about $1,000 from the government and equivalent to a 2% tax relief for households falling in the $50,000 median-income bracket, according to Slok.

“Helicopter money in its simplest form calls for a central bank to print money and give it to people, most likely in coordination with fiscal policy like a tax cut or to fund spending. It’s an idea that was first articulated by Milton Friedman in his 1969 paper, ‘The Optimum Quantity of Money.

’“Slok’s main point is that helicopter money isn’t always accompanied by fanfare.“[It] is normally thought of as a big event where fiscal and monetary policy work together to kick-start the economy. Today’s version of helicopter money is more quiet. What the Fed is doing today corresponds to a situation where the Fed sent a check every year of $1,000 to every single household,” he told MarketWatch.

“In other words, sometimes it’s ‘the communication of helicopter money that determines how effective it is in supporting GDP growth,’ Slok said. Traditionally, the concept of helicopter money has been viewed as a policy tool of last resort and sometimes policy makers are reluctant to publicly embrace such drastic measures.

“‘What is at stake here is the risk that people lose faith in money and in the government having things under control. So there are good reasons why policy makers in the U.S., Europe, and Japan are hesitant to do full-blown helicopter money,’ Slok said.

“With the global economy shackled by anemic growth, more economists and Wall Street big shots have called on the Fed to explore creative means to resuscitate the economy. DoubleLine Capital’s Jeffrey Gundlach recently predicted the Fed will have to resort to the helicopters.

“Economist Nouriel Roubini also has urged central banks to deploy more ‘unconventional’ monetary policies as ‘desperate times call for desperate measures.’”

My Comment: All points to the fact the money will no longer play a role. Ensuring each person receives all necessities will be possible and required. But his participation in society will also become necessary, his participation in the public educational process, which will transform everyone into a participant in one single society.

In the News (Vesti Finance): “Former US Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan, one of the few who consider the growing social costs of direct threat to the country’s economy. …

“the truth is that social spending now exceeds even military spending: it accounts for more than $1.75 trillion, that is, half of all federal spending, while the needs of Pentagon spending is approximately $700 billion per year. This is an exemplary picture of what happens when the military and social spending beyond the capability of the state, the state collapses. And a perfect example of this -. [In] The Roman Empire … the huge costs of ‘bread and circuses’ practically exhausted the imperial treasury. Initially it was assumed that this would facilitate the suffering of the poor. A free food program was designed for 40,000 residents of Rome in 71 BC. e. and 320,000 (about one-third of the entire population of Rome) under the emperor Augustus… .

“The expensive entertainment, bloody gladiator fights that took place during the holidays, were common in the sunset of the Roman Empire, depleted state treasury. …

“The situation is similar in the United States: social expenditures exceed the resources of the economy, they take half of the federal budget. This is compared to 20% in 1970. Furthermore, expenditures will only grow. … To pay for social benefits, federal tax rates have doubled. It is unlikely that the elite, to get the most benefit from their status quo, will deduct 80% of their income as federal taxes. From a comprehensive analysis it becomes clear that the economic elites and corporate groups representing the interests of business, have quite a strong influence on the US government , while ordinary citizens have little impact on the political process. no one dares to encroach on the ‘third pillar’ of US policy. So, if there is no free lunch, it is better not to talk about them, than to engage in populism.

“The Romans were not interested in solving this problem. As soon as people were used to free bread, riots began to occur in cases of delayed delivery of the grain. The authorities are faced with the unrest, growing demand, depleted coffers, and weakened currency, it was necessary as a politically expedient ‘solution.’ American elites are trying to solve problems with the help of an uncontrolled release of money to subsidize the federal budget deficit, stubbornly unwilling to notice the final fall of the currency, which it inevitably will.”

My Comment: It is impossible to stop the evolutionary process of society; egoism must prove itself as the gravedigger of the reign of the self, like a cancer that devours the body and ultimately dies together with it. Salvation is only with introducing Integral Education among to the public and its implementation in society. This is the path of the Light.

Otherwise it will be the path of suffering, not through curing egoism, but through the death of the entire body, the empire of the ego.

Comment: June 23, 2016 is a significant day; a referendum was held in England about leaving the European Union. British Prime Minister James Cameron appeared before the Jewish public with a request to vote in favor of the nation continuing in the European Union since according to him, “We are helping you in every way possible and are encouraging Europe to support Israel.”

Answer: In fact, England is the most anti-Semitic nation. And even though the Prime Minister says the exact opposite, considering Britain’s diplomatic past, without a doubt it seems otherwise.

Comment: Everyone is waiting anxiously and with apprehension regarding the outcome of the referendum because it would lead to many consequences depending on whether England remains or leaves the EU.

Response: If we are talking about tactics, meaning the plan for the near future, then this result is not beneficial to the EU because of the many and various agreements that were signed by England, and in this context there will be a need to carry out new calculations.

It could be that the breach of mutual obligations will cost the two sides several billion dollars to bring everything into the right form. But gradually everything will take its course. They say that the rejection will be gradual, the dismantling and the distancing of England from the Common Market could even take a decade.

Question: But how will it be for the European Union?

Answer: The member nations of the EU will feel that it is possible to leave the Common Market and will begin to abandon it.

A paradoxical situation will be created in Europe: The Germans granted loans to everyone so now everyone has become fully dependent on them. Even though this is a financial obligation, it even makes it possible for Germany to give political orders. Unequal exchange rates of political monetary transfers are created.

With England, the accounting is a bit simpler; they can allow themselves to leave the EU. In the future, this union will fall apart anyway because nothing was done in Europe to bring nations and peoples together, developing something in common. What united them was free entry from one nation into another and what is called the “Common Market.”

The fact that they live in close proximity doesn’t indicate anything. On the contrary, it could be that this is worse than union.

Comment: In principle, they took the concept of unity as a foundation of a religious principle….

Answer: Today they have no religious principles. Religion doesn’t connect them, it no longer exists. Only Islam connects them, which is growing quite successfully in all the European nations. For Islam, in general, it is not important if this is France, Germany, Italy, or Spain. For them the title of the transformation is what is important. In principle, the strategy is very simple.

If England wants to be in the union, then it will remain. And if not, in any case, it will be necessary to leave the EU sometime. It could be that leaving now is not worthwhile temporarily, but in the long run it will use it. It won’t need to accept any limitations, any European laws; it will be able to function on its own.

According to its psychology, this is a nation situated on an island that stands on the side, at some distance from everyone. From the point of view of history, England has always been against Europe, so it doesn’t need to look back on the European Union. It was better for it to become independent and not to depend on it, but politicians have their own calculations.

Question: As a result of all these developments, must we achieve becoming a single whole?

Answer: A single whole can be achieved only through Israel, and this is the problem. So ultimately fascism will unite Europe, and together they will turn against us.

The logic of nature, the forces latent in nature, will bring us to this, if not, we will pre-empt it through our efforts to bring the upper force and goodness to our world.

In the News (Atlantic): “For centuries, philosophers and theologians have almost unanimously held that civilization as we know it depends on a widespread belief in free will—and that losing this belief could be calamitous. …

“The sciences have grown steadily bolder in their claim that all human behavior can be explained through the clockwork laws of cause and effect. This shift in perception is the continuation of an intellectual revolution that began about 150 years ago, when Charles Darwin first published On the Origin of Species. …

“Galton launched a debate that raged throughout the 20th century over nature versus nurture. Are our actions the unfolding effect of our genetics? Or the outcome of what has been imprinted on us by the environment? …

“In recent decades, research on the inner workings of the brain has helped to resolve the nature-nurture debate—and has dealt a further blow to the idea of free will. Brain scanners have enabled us to peer inside a living person’s skull, revealing intricate networks of neurons and allowing scientists to reach broad agreement that these networks are shaped by both genes and environment. But there is also agreement in the scientific community that the firing of neurons determines not just some or most but all of our thoughts, hopes, memories, and dreams. …

“Many scientists say that the American physiologist Benjamin Libet demonstrated in the 1980s that we have no free will. It was already known that electrical activity builds up in a person’s brain before she, for example, moves her hand; Libet showed that this buildup occurs before the person consciously makes a decision to move. The conscious experience of deciding to act, which we usually associate with free will, appears to be an add-on, a post hoc reconstruction of events that occurs after the brain has already set the act in motion. …

“The 20th-century nature-nurture debate prepared us to think of ourselves as shaped by influences beyond our control. …The challenge posed by neuroscience is more radical: It describes the brain as a physical system like any other, and suggests that we no more will it to operate in a particular way than we will our heart to beat. The contemporary scientific image of human behavior is one of neurons firing, causing other neurons to fire, causing our thoughts and deeds, in an unbroken chain that stretches back to our birth and beyond. In principle, we are therefore completely predictable. If we could understand any individual’s brain architecture and chemistry well enough, we could, in theory, predict that individual’s response to any given stimulus with 100 percent accuracy.

“Saul Smilansky, a philosophy professor at the University of Haifa, in Israel, has … come to a painful conclusion: ‘We cannot afford for people to internalize the truth’ about free will.

“Smilansky is convinced that free will does not exist in the traditional sense—and that it would be very bad if most people realized this.

Answer: According to the wisdom of Kabbalah there is no free will according to the common definition. All of a person’s actions are unconscious, and are performed unconsciously and only then understood, and some of them are not always understood either. According to many Kabbalistic texts, like Baal HaSulam’s articles “Thou Hast Hemmed Me In Behind and Before,” Shamati articles, etc. speak about that. Another part of Kabbalistic literature describes what does depend on a person. All of the Kabbalistic literature is divided into two parts: the part that depends on the Creator and the part that depends on a person.

The study of Kabbalah actually comes down to the study and implementation of our free will, but we can define and implement it only to the extent that we understand the Creator’s actions and when our attributes become equal to His through adhering to Him like to a partner. The meaning of our actions is in our understanding and our complete connection between all of a person’s actions and the Creator’s. This is called adhesion.

In the News (ScienceDaily): “A new trend taking shape in psychological science not only uses quantum physics to explain humans’ (sometimes) paradoxical thinking, but may also help researchers resolve certain contradictions among the results of previous psychological studies. …

“‘We have accumulated so many paradoxical findings in the field of cognition, and especially in decision-making,’ said Wang, who is an associate professor of communication and director of the Communication and Psychophysiology Lab at The Ohio State University.

“’Whenever something comes up that isn’t consistent with classical theories, we often label it as “irrational.” But from the perspective of quantum cognition, some findings aren’t irrational anymore. They’re consistent with quantum theory–and with how people really behave.’ …

“Their work suggests that thinking in a quantum-like way¬–essentially not following a conventional approach based on classical probability theory–enables humans to make important decisions in the face of uncertainty, and lets us confront complex questions despite our limited mental resources. …

“Quantum cognition is what happens when humans have to deal with ambiguity mentally. Sometimes we aren’t certain about how we feel, or we feel ambiguous about which option to choose, or we have to make decisions based on limited information. …

“As we mull over our options, we envision them in our mind’s eye. For a time, all the options co-exist with different degrees of potential that we will choose them: That’s superposition. Then, when we zero in on our preferred option, the other options cease to exist for us.

“The task of modeling this process mathematically is difficult in part because each possible outcome adds dimensions to the equation. …

“With the quantum approach, Wang and her colleagues argued, many different and complex aspects of behavior can be explained with the same limited set of axioms.”

My Comment: We are not the ones who make decisions. Our only decision is whether to be integrated in unity by using the power of the right environment, which we can construct by ourselves.

It is only in this way that we can determine all of our other decisions, whiich are absolutely derivatives of this one free decision. See the article, “The Freedom” by Baal HaSulam. In other words, the principle of superposition says that we determine our actions to the degree of their resemblance (accommodation) to the higher categorical principle of the characteristic of bestowal, connection, and love.

Comment: American bio-technologists are studying how to resurrect people who have died. It refers to people who are brain dead but whose internal organs are still functioning. It is possible to revive a person who is a vegetative state and to bring him back to life. Such experiments will now be performed on human beings and substantial funding has been allocated for this research.

Answer: The whole point is that they are working for the funding since otherwise they will have nothing to do. The question is what for?! According to Judaism when a person dies you should call the funeral home to bury the body in the ground as soon as possible. He doesn’t feel anything anymore anyway; he is dead, so why should he be resurrected?! When the brain dies it is actually complete death. After that a person will never be the same but can be like a robot or a zombie.

If the brain is dead nothing can be done, the body will move automatically, but it will not be a human being anymore since the neurons die first. I believe that such resurrection of the dead makes no sense at all. We have recently spoken about the fact that people will live to be 150 or even 200, but what’s the point? Is it only because of the fear of death that we postpone it?! I am for the natural course of events.

Comment: But we still need to maintain the life of a person who is brain dead and who is in coma for a long time.

Answer: I don’t think this is necessary. Everything should happen naturally. What is the point of connecting a person to instruments that keep his organs alive? This isn’t the normal functioning of the body since a person doesn’t connect to the external world this way, so what is the point in that?

Question: Do you mean that it is all done mainly in order to attain funding?

Answer: Of course! Science is holding onto and relying on funding. Otherwise what will scientists do? We should eventually realize that we cannot defeat the natural flow of life. We will only find out that we have to live under natural conditions since this is what our body was created for. No one will gain from extending our life expectancy. It is a finite process in any case, since the future holds different kinds of life for us, which are much better than the worst of all the worlds.

In the News (rg-rb.de): “The majority of people in Germany believe the domestic media is controlled: against the background of the crises of recent years, ‘the fourth power’ has become a support tool of the elite to impose the desired opinions on the citizens.

“A representative sociological survey conducted on the eve of World Press Freedom Day (3 May) … makes it clear: the people of Germany do not believe in the independence of the media. Six out of ten respondents believe that the German news media are controlled and supported by the establishment. On the news, you can influence – both in their content and in the form of feed materials, according to respondents. …

“’The dark forces controlling the media—more than half (54%) of Germans believe it is controlled by politicians and big business (the lobbyists and pressure from advertising clients). More than half of respondents believe that the news media in Germany controlled by the state, the government, corporations, and influential stakeholder groups. …Sociologists note dissatisfaction with the political, economic elites and distrust toward them is rooted in German society as a result of crises in recent years.”

My Comment: In the developed egoistic world it cannot be otherwise! If the media are a tool for control over people, then how is it possible to leave them unmanaged?! Unmanaged, unpaid for communications media does not exist. That is how it is in every nation. The dependence of the media will disappear only with the disappearance of egoistic dependence between people, with the transition to a new society.

 Remark: According to studies that were conducted recently, Europe is becoming a continent of drugs. Recently 98 new drugs have appeared that have a narcotic effect. For every 1,000 of the European population, there is a need for 500-1000 milligrams of drugs.

Answer: The phenomenon of drugs hosted by the government of every nation and the world government as a whole, is very easy: give a person so many grams of drugs and he is calm and happy.

So soon they will give everyone drugs in the form of cocktails or a special cup of coffee for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. They will even give them in schools instead of the drugs given to children today for various problems. This is something that will happen in the near future, and as a result of this, it will be easier for the world.

But the fact is, this is not a correction. After all, we are in a certain natural system that must bring us to the disclosure of the managing force to ensure we will take upon ourselves the management of the world.

We need to rise to the level of the upper force (the Creator); this has been given not just to the Kabbalists, but to everyone. When a person understands everything that is happening, he can consciously participate in the work of the one integral system, independently turning this entire “clockwork” in unison with everyone else, meaning that he feels the entire system of creation, its flow and direction. This should be discovered soon.
