Ross spoke about the Soviet's goal during our next day's breakfast in his log house by the sea. He concluded that Steve is obviously right.
"The sad fact is that no one really wants peace," commented Heather during the breakfast conversation. "It's as if no one is allowed to have peace, or to become serious about it. The reason appears to be that the building of peace would require mankind to launch a new renaissance that would shut down the imperials system together with every empire, including the Soviet Empire and the West's New World Order Empire. The Soviets don't want a renaissance unfolding, and the West absolutely doesn't want one either. Both want to dominate society. Both want to be the World Empire. They don't want anyone to be free and prosperous. And the populations themselves want a renaissance. Everyone wants to keep its little empire alive, from the rich to the poor. That's why peace won't be allowed. It would require building a renaissance."
"The imperials that own us in the West, just as the own the Soviets with their agents and their bribery, wouldn't know what to do if real peace broke out in the world," commented Ross. "They would loose their power, their profit engines, and their opportunity for looting. War is the means for their empire's survival. It opens the floodgates to profits and keeps everyone impotent. That's why the imperial fondi love war. That's why the world has been in a constant state of war ever since the imperial fondi defeated America in 1913."
"I don't envy you one bit for going to Moscow on this hopeless quest," said Heather to me and laughed.
"Who wants to be drawn into this kind of an arena that has all the features of a Roman circus?" said Sylvia.
"Would you say this, even if it was the only chance we've got to save the world?" said Ross to Sylvia.
"That's not a fair question," said Sylvia.
Fred just smiled and shook his head when he entered our discussion on the day he came to visit our outpost to tell us about the conference and present my invitation. He turned to me. "Your friend Helen would have said, what has any of this unresolved crap got to do with anything? She would have asked, do the challenges change the principle involved?"
"The fact is," Ross countered Fred, "that no principle has been established in the modern political arena on which to build real peace." He turned to me. "Your task is to create this foundation that has never been created in the modern political arena and to do this in the midst of a lions den. The Westphalia Principle is being slandered by the imperials, but you need to not only start there, but go further with it. That's what it means to be dishing up the Principle of Universal Love." Here Ross began to laugh.
"Society hasn't been able to do the equivalent socially for thousands of years either," I replied quietly. "But it's happening in our midst."
Ross just nodded, smiled, then shook his head. "I rest my case," he said.
"On what foundation would the political peace be founded if there was no foundation for its principle established in people's lives at the grassroots level of day to day living?" I said to Ross.
"Precisely!" Ross defended himself. "Without the Principle of Universal Love established at the grassroots level, I see no foundation existing that one would build on to establish unity and peace at the political level," said Ross. "But I see nothing on the horizon in both spheres. All that I can see is more and more isolation and self-isolation. I see more war on the horizon, not less."
"How do you propose that change that?" said Fred.
