Chapter 16: Forces for upwards transitions.Dr. Sun Yat-sen of China had put forward an interesting proposal in 1919 that could have spared mankind the horrors of World War II, and China it's Cultural Revolution. He made a proposal for the "International Development of China" that would utilize the industrial capacity of the world that had been developed as an engine for fighting the war, and direct it as an investment towards the economic development of China by which the whole world would have benefitted. The moral force of such a move would have preempted the rise of Nazism in Europe, and its counterpart in China, and would have blessed the whole of humanity with a dramatically increased prosperity and a century without war. History tells us that Sun Yat-sen's proposal was immediately shut down and was subsequently prevented from ever becoming realized. Instead of the proposed development, the world saw the fateful imposition of the May 1919 Versailles Treaty that would lead to the economic collapse of Germany and a new war that Sun Yat-sen had predicted would occur if the development opportunity was rejected. The ravishing force of the Versailles Treaty was so severe that it would inevitably cause a downward transition of society into fascist anarchy. The treaty had evidently been a major contributor for the mental shift throughout the society, that had enabled Hitler's rise to power. The tragedy that humanity suffered as a consequence of the Versailles treaty was so vast that it cannot be truly measured. It still affects us today. The Nazi ideology which it brought to the surface is still a growing force in the western world. We have seen its face in many parts of the world in modern times where genocide has occurred and still is on the agenda. We have seen it's face in Bosnia not too long ago, and we see it presently unfolding in Africa on an even larger scale than Hitler's. The question must be explored as to how this transition into hell can be reversed that has already begun and threatens to spread throughout the whole of the West, and, then, the whole world. History tells us that the reversal cannot be achieved piecemeal, or by statutory means. It cannot be degreed. It can only be achieved by moral motivation. One such upwards transition had occurred at the beginning of World War II through the moral force of the government of U.S. President Franklin Delanor Roosevelt. His four freedoms caused a moral revolution that raised the image and the value of man. His four freedoms were also widely accepted. One could even find his declaration framed on the walls in barber shops, calling for: the freedom of speech, anywhere in the world; the freedom to worship God by every person in its own way, everywhere in the world; the freedom from want, everywhere in the world; the freedom from fear, anywhere in the world. Without this moral mobilization the great depression that had gripped the U.S. in the 1930s would not have been defeated, nor would Hitler have been defeated. The consequences cannot be imagined that humanity would have had to suffer had Franklin Delanor Roosevelt not set up the spiritual stage for the recovery of the world. It must never be forgotten, though it is hardly acknowledged, at humanity was saved so dramatically by the moral force of a little man in a wheel chair whom the society had the wisdom to elect to a position of influence. By the same token, it was a great tragedy for mankind when this man and his moral influence was were erased from the world-political scene. Officially, Franklin D. Roosevelt died from natural causes. Some say, however, that his death was an act of murder as the timing was too precise and in favor of the British Empire. While there exists no evidence that F. D. Roosevelt was murdered once the war had been won in Europe (by which the oligarchy was saved that had earlier financed Hitler into power), many people believe nevertheless that Roosevelt was artificially put out of the way in order that the British Empire could be reestablished in its full scope that Roosevelt's policies for a postwar economic development of the world had threatened with extinction. We learn from records of history that literally within days of Roosevelt's death all his carefully established diplomatic work for the postwar liberation of humanity from poverty and from imperial domination, was overturned. || - page index - || - chapter index - || - Exit - ||
