If the level and amount of consumption and waste of the western ‘rich’ countries ever reaches the poor countries, it will mean the end of humanity. The big world corporations are busy doing it.
The production, selling, consumption, accumulation, wastes’ and advertisement explosions in the western ‘rich’ countries and the continued population explosion in the poor countries will turn into major catastrophes.

| Robert's Golden Sayings |
It is only passion and a one-track mind for peace that will lead us to peace.
* Peacemakers must be as uncompromising as are the military.
* We need a total strategy for peace as the military have one for war and ‘defense’.
* We need peace games, peace exercises, the same way as the military have war games and military exercises. There have never been any peace exercises on this planet.

-A Contribution to the 50th Anniversary of the United Nations, 1995, Chapter 8 |
Why the "interest of nations", the "reason of state"?
What about the "interest of humanity', the "reason of the Earth"?
It is a strange planet indeed where some are preparing for star wars while others wake up every morning in a war for daily food, water, wood and survival. Yes, it is an appallingly managed planet, unworthy of a place of honor in the universe. Our political leaders should feel ashamed down to the marrow of their bones. They should collectively resign.
Why should we wait for another world war to devise a better planetary system than the UN? Let us be sensible and either improve e UN or create a better world organization right away.
We discount world government as utopian because it is an known, and as long as we continue to discount it, it will remain an unknown and utopian.
