Ken Livingstone, The Guardian, April 7:
Twenty years ago apartheid South Africa attempted to deal with the first impact of the Asian economies by ruling that the Japanese were “honorary whites” – it being unwise to suggest that Toshiba’s president should be confined to a bantustan. Asia’s rise is now so universally recognised that even much softer forms of racist thinking will not work. The people of China and India will expect to be treated as first-rate Chinese or Indians, not second-rate Europeans or Americans. Inheritors of great civilisations, and now creating the world’s most dynamic economies, they will have the muscle to enforce respect.
For those of us who believe in human equality, this is of course giant progress. Interaction with the cultural richness of the rest of Europe has already liberated us from the shackles of “Africa begins at Calais”. A truly global cultural exchange will open still greater horizons. That which is best in our culture – its contributions to universal civilisation – will survive. Any traits that do not deserve to survive – narrowness, insularity, racism – will be undermined by brutal economic facts.
and that’s why if saudi prince what’s-his-name decides to tour Tel Aviv, he will automatically be given the status of honorary jew.
Orang: And that’s why if Saudi Prince (what’s-his-name) decides to tour Tel Aviv, he will automatically be given the status of honorary Jew”… The Saudi family members know perfectly well, that the Muslims all over the world have already known their aristocratic Jew origin. Muslims have now known all their bloody past, which was, and still is stuck in the same mire of the brutal despotism and atrocities. As they exert their utmost efforts to conceal their real aristocratic Jew origin by covering themselves with the cloak of the Islamic religion, so as to try to keep their real Jew ancestry hidden in the dark by concocting their bogus family tree.
From the Ken Livingstone piece -”It has not, for example, pursued a programme of privatisation and asset stripping ‘
Errrr… The Honorable Mayor is talking through his top hat .
The central government can’t stop provincial governments selling off assets – at steep discounts to their families or even , horror of horrors ,to foreigners! The same groups indulge in land grabs from the peasants .
Any who complain run the risk of being shot.
All those nasty ,multinational investment banks are loading up on privatised company shares in particular the recent sell off of state owned banks has raised protests from the old guard revolutionaries.
Still it is good to see a white guy recognising that
“People in China and India will want greater political rights and social protection,” – as far as I know they don’t need us informing them of what they want or need.
As the Mayor I guess he has to sell his city but his salesman’s speil is grating.
Ken Livingstone: “Twenty years ago apartheid South Africa attempted to deal with the first impact of the Asian economies by ruling that the Japanese were ‘honorary whites’ (it being unwise to suggest that Toshiba’s president should be confined to a bantustan). Asia’s rise is now so universally recognised … that even much softer forms of racist thinking will not work”… Really?
When in reality the focal point of my research along the elaborate probes into Jew aristocracy chauvinism, proved for it to be otherwise. Emanating actually from the cradle of monarchical rule, dating back from the biblical times in Ethiopia.
In accordance to the hereditary Jew royals primogeniture of adhirance in the male bloodline. Conceived via royal Jew lady as norm … though at times via noble Jew concubines. Hence, it has been perfectly clear, how Jew princes Diana really felt, to say she was nothing but a breeder for the Windsors; in reflection to devious Jew Charles debauchery escapades with his Camilla over the years.
During the utmost scandalous matrimony (contrived well in advance). Culminating in Jew princes Diana’s horrific foul-play consequences. Not unlikely end to await likewise a Japanese utterly debilitated in turn … Jew princes Masako, as a result of having a sole female child. Taboo within 125 generations long, Japanese imperial bloodline of the strict successions in accordance with Jewanderthal’s ancient tradition, that has lasted for 2665 years.
So now a brawl has surfaced in Japan’s royal family, as traditionalist prince questioning a move, allowing a female to ascend the imperial throne. As prince Tomohito 59, a cousin of emperor Akihito, wants to preserve the tradition of the world’s oldest hereditary monarchy, continuing through the male bloodline. The issue has been raised because the royal family is having trouble to yield a male heir. No boy has been born to the family for 40 years, since the birth of prince Akishino (younger brother of 44 year old, crown prince Naruhito).
At the moment, Naruhito is first in line to the throne, but his crown princess Masako 41, has had only one child, 3 year old princess Aiko. Japanese public surveys showed that an overwhelming 80% of respondents would support Aiko becoming empress. Japan is moving to enshrine such a move in legislation. A government panel is expected to submit a report this month, suggesting a change of law to allow an empress on the throne. But prince Tomohito is not so sure and wonders if it’s kosher to change off-hand Japan’s so unique Jewanderthal’s history and tradition that has lasted for 2665 years, unprecedented in the world.
“The importance of imperial succession stems from the fact that the oldest hereditary monarchy continuied for 125 generations through the male line only”… prince Tomohito said. There had been no disruptions to this tradition since the time of the emperor Jimmu, the mythical first emperor who is said to have descended from heaven. Although remarks were defined as “private”, prince Tomohito is the first member of the imperial family to have expressed a view on the imperial succession. The serious issue as such has been discussed by Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi’s advisory panel.
The Imperial House Law, enacted in 1947, stipulates that only male descendants of an emperor are allowed to ascend to the throne. Prince Tomohito who is fifth in line, suggested this should be widened. In his view female descendants of the emperor should be allowed to adopt noble boys from the wider imperial family, and these males should be eligible to become an emperor. He was referring to 51 individuals who belonged to 11 former royal families, which lost their status when the 1947 law was enacted. Another suggestion prince Tomohito has made is to re-establish the discontinued houses of the prince Chichibu and prince Takamatsu (the younger brothers of late emperor Hirohito).
