NEXUS REVIEW (Re-posted)

NEXUS REVIEW

It seems on reading the Bin Laden communiqué, that it is a not so funny parody of a typical Madison Avenue ad campaign or Bush speech. Regardless of it being faked or supporting anyone in particular (the people or their government) it’s utility is proven as a nexus for the Bush administration. It is too bad that we don’t have a nexus of words and actions rather than people.

The flip-flop that Secretary of State Powell has done (Saddam /Bin Laden nexus) is demonstrative of the lack of nexus in the administration between principles and words, words and actions, and principles and actions. It is easy to see how America is not gaining friends or influencing people. Where is the nexus uniting not dividing, trusting the nexus of the people and the government, and being the nexus of the legal and ones conscience?

This is a track record in Bush statements that lacks nexus, so why should any nexus they see matter? And how could we expect them to see the nexus between preemptive actions and offensive actions, being less of a nexus than offensive and defensive? Nor how could we not expect our adversaries to see a nexus between their preemptive alternatives and defense? It seems that we are on the road from MAD* to MAO (Mutually Assured Offenses).

* UPDATE:
MAD (Officially a defense policy of Mutually Assured Destruction) or what Bush seemed to be just to bluff. Which I thought was a good strategy if it was a bluff, but unfortunately it was not a bluff in more ways than one.

Move On and Look Back.

Dear Honorable Leaders:

Put simply, we need a nexus of words and actions. Before we declare what the world needs and give it to them, we should look at how we make our own nexus and that of those we employ and whom they employ.

My last post was immediately after hearing the speech the President gave at the U.N. and further thought does not change things, but only cries for further clarity.

After reading the President's speech more closely, I find it a beautiful and compelling argument for our goals and for cooperation in the world. For anybody but Bush.

Setting aside what could have been said, let us run with what we did get. The question is how to move-on. It does not involve looking only forward. The nexus of words and actions is crucial. On this we agree!

I almost overlooked the (his) most beautiful line: "Both (founding documents of the U.N. and America) assert that human beings should never be reduced to objects of power or commerce, because their dignity is inherent."

If only one could live on dignity alone. Nor would the absence of power and commerce be a suggested route.

The line is most interesting and a dilemma that goes beyond simple declarations. The world could likely unite under a cause but not necessarily the cure. That certainly requires more retrospection and discussion before more action is taken.

On more mundane yet crucial matters, THAT DEMONSTRATE the fallacy of acting preemptively, it was not only the existence of WMD but that they would be used. The charge that New York is the symbol of an "unfinished war" begs the question: when did it start? Do we now have any less to fear in that WMD have yet to be used or that we don’t even know whose hands they are in? What is the difference between preemptive plans and a preemptive strategy and how does that influence not only what we need to do but what others will do or even have already done?

Looking at causes and cures is a tricky business. If leaps can be taken, they should have been of faith in the process. If action before discussion is selected by the most civilized, how can we hope for different in those we chastise or fear and yet hope to civilize?

The cost of what we must now do is said to be worth it compared to failure. Failure to discuss the past and move-on is what it needs to be compared to. Comparisons are easy for those who won’t foot the bill or field questions.

Chris Matthews on Hardball makes a nuanced if iffy nexus from one matter to another.  Maybe it was from Pakistan to torture or Taliban to (~) whatchamacallit?  No, really it escapes me and was somewhat obtuse.  Somewhere mid-program he notes the polling on torture and segues to The Torture Debate.  OW [!]  Fundamental Partisan-ship?

Above Hardball inserts: CM Jeb Bush 2016, n. torture tactics, w. Russian tailspin, (~) pure evil.
Still rereading between the lines.  The attack on a school in Pakistan is a terrible tragedy.  It was a terrorist attack.  Americans support torture apparently. The Taliban is upset with the attack of civilians in their controlled regions.  They feel justified.  Putin feels under attack by the nuances of democracy. (sanctions)  Recalling how Bush(43) looked into Putin's eyes and saw his soul, it brings us around to the recent insurgence of support for the likes of Putin from the right.  While a third Bush(Jeb) wrangles the middle, Webb rides(or teeters) in from the left. The fulcrum of democracy and American Exceptionalism.  Obama Webb on arc of history?

The nexus is the legacy of progress**.  Now that may seem too muddled to be clear, but it takes a table.  It takes three branches of government and lede~or~ship.  The legislation in Indiana, the TPP, and the Iran negotiations, spin on the interpretation of rules and who writes them.  The spinning will continue.
