Being born in Egypt, I care about, and follow developments there. I recently visited in February/April and experienced firsthand how many people were disenchanted about prevailing conditions; including members of my family and friends, as well as others such as the taxi drivers whom I chatted with. Apart from enjoying meeting family and friends, a Nile cruise, and the clear waters of the Red sea, I was myself dismayed at the apparent chaotic conditions that prevailed in Egypt; such as haphazard urban development, lack of security, and mile long lines of vehicles waiting at diesel pumping stations.

Here in the US we have just celebrated the fourth of July. The French will soon celebrate the fourteenth of July. I feel that the third of July -the day the Egyptian army ousted former President Morsi- might assume a similar status in the annals of history.…

This site was created over ten years ago with the goal of presenting the general concept of Tychiformation as a possible approach to addressing global affairs. The definition of the conceptand its potential application are expressed in the left column of this Home Page. The content of the site morphed over the years to address issues in more detail, in parallel with the development of my thoughts as documented in the two books that I authored after the inception of the site. Both books are featured on the right column of this page. The books reflectan articulated progressive position. In this context I wish to add that to my mind “progressive” is synonymous with “rational”; i.e. in my view, ‘not influenced by inflexible religious, ethnic, political, or nationalistic preconceptions and prejudice’. Thus, the mission of the site evolved into airing progressive views regarding both global, as well as domestic US conditions and developments.…

One of the strategic moves that I proposed in my last book was the creation of a viable third party; in addition to the established Republican and Democrat parties. More recent developments:

Rocky Anderson, former Mayor of Salt Lake City, established the Justice Party and is vying for the presidency
Buddy Roemer, former Governor of Louisiana reneged his Republican affiliation, and is now also running as an independent for the presidency
Check here to find out about recent developments in this respect.

Also, President Obama, encouraged by his now real prospects for reelection, is expressing the kinds of views that ‘progressive’ Democrats have been yearning for.

I am sorting out these most recent developments in my own mind, and will let you know what I would suggest for future action.…

A few weeks ago, I went to the Brazos book store in Houston to buy Michael Moore’s latest book and attend the book signing do. There, I had the great pleasure of meeting Michael face to face.

As I was standing in line waiting for my turn to get Michael’s signature, a young man handed me a copy of “The Occupied Wall Street Journal”.

The last page of the Journal features an article by Nathan Schneider: “Occupation for Dummies”. It recounts an interview of some of the ‘occupiers’. Under the subtitle “What are the demands of the people”, the answer given is: “Ugh, the zillion dollar question.”

In this case, the bile appalachianmagazine.com viagra on line becomes acidic, as well.
I have been following the news about the ‘Occupy’ movement. I ardently encourage the growth and spread of the revolt of the people.…

Congratulations. Your uprising is beginning to bear fruit and is spreading worldwide. I believe that a majority of the American people appreciates your uprising and is prepared to stand behind you.

This website is one of many that foresaw the continuing deterioration of the people’s conditions leading to our gloomy present dilemma. For many years, I tried on this site to tell those who would care to listen about global problems, their causes, and how one could address them. I expressed my views both on this site as well as in my book “Planning for Survival”. I am sad to admit, to little avail. Your action, like that demonstrated in the Arab Spring, proves to be more effective than ‘talking’ in the way of bringing about ‘change’.

However, those who revolt often express their outrage, without being prepared for expressing their demands, and without conceiving the arguments that are needed to convince others of the legitimacy of their cause.…

The fourth of July, 2011

The most topical issues in the USA and many other countries in the world today, relate to the quality of life of the common citizens. This is due to prevailing high unemployment, loss of social benefits, and other factors that are negatively affecting the wellbeing of the people; a state of affairs that has been deteriorating with no clear end in sight. Recent demonstrations in the USA, the Arab world, Greece, Spain, France, the UK, and other countries around the world confirm the pervasiveness of these conditions. Some have sacrificed their lives in their strive to achieve a decent living, starting with the young Tunisian martyr who burnt himself, to the martyrs in Egypt, Libya, Yemen, Bahrain, and Syria. Therefore, I decided to write this article which builds on the results of “Planning for Survival” and focuses on addressing current topical issues regarding the quality of life, especially as they are unfolding in the USA.…
