Chapter 38: Stopping Terrorism – a General Solution

 

Disclaimer: I thought that this solution was so important that I sent it to the Prime Minister’s Department because I thought that he could use it to improve his standing and popularity around the world and at home. I also sent it to the hotline@nationalsecurity and as I have not received any notification for two days, I assume that this solution is not particularly important, so, I will put it up here for general interest.

 

The previous chapter and this one are short but (I believe) change our view of the subjects examined because I am using (arguably) the most basic and fundamental operator that we have, and that is ‘reality’. Reality is appropriate for a mathematics of concepts that is specific for our world, and I am including all organisms because, as shown previously we are all linked through our reality.

 

So, looking at terrorists from the aspect of reality, it is apparent that their reality is different to ours. The current situation is that they are part of the population and we have no defence from them, so, looking at the previous chapter, the way is simple and effective, and that is isolate ourselves or them into a different reality. Looking at evolution, organisms isolate themselves because they don’t have a consensus or joining together. With our consensus, firstly, we could invade the terrorists ‘home’ territory until a stalemate occurs, but that approach doesn’t solve much in the long-term. Secondly, the problem of isolating ourselves from the terrorist can be approached through two suggestions.

 

Firstly, terrorists have antisocial leanings that have arisen through the state of our civilization. Many references in this book have been made to the poor upbringing of many children from disadvantaged homes and families. This situation could be ameliorated by Survival of the Best and is covered elsewhere.

 

Secondly, as mentioned previously, religions have regions that were fought over for converts and this is in line with reality. The problem occurs when religions occupy the same area, and it would be nice if there were tolerance, but, often there is not and warfare, ethnic cleansing etc. breaks out. The answer is to keep the areas separate with separate realities, and it can be done. If law and order and universal education is the State religion, the Religions must accept that, and they cannot countenance any moves outside of law and order, and if they will not align themselves with that, they should be banned from practising in that country. This is forced separation, which we have found is the only tried and ‘true’ way! Any terrorist would be excluded or ex-communicated by their Church, and would thus not achieve their objective of gaining followers, being granted martyrdom, eternal life etc. This solution is simple and is a logical solution.

 

The paragraph above, is the logical solution and I would like to go through it more slowly. Terrorists have their own reality and the area in which they operate has a different reality. This must be resolved because the State Religion contains law and order and no religion can be under the State Religion’s umbrella unless it preaches law and order, and that means that it is actively preaching against the terrorists.

 

Any religious or organizational group that seeks a different reality that is against law and order must be banned no matter the cost. The banning of religions and the idea of a State Religion has been used many times in the past. The government is committed to providing a safe environment to its people, and if this safe environment supports religious freedom, well and good, but if it does not, those religions and organizations that cause trouble must be banned. Reality demands that they be kept isolated in certain areas of the world and isolated until they change their way of teaching and embrace law and order.

 

This is a workable solution and only needs the threat to close a Religion to bring the members to the realization that they must support law and order and the onus is on them and not on the rest of the country to ‘clean-up’ their Religion. Simple!

 

Afterword: this book is designed to bring solutions to the world’s problems that a large majority can agree upon the answer and implement the solution. This is true of the above problem of terrorism and the vast majority should support the solution given. A new mathematics of concepts was used as well as the newly defined operator (reality) and whilst the solution may not be unique, in this case there is little leeway. The Mathematics of the Mind requires prediction, and this solution, for example, provides a bartering ‘point’ for the Japanese government in the current refusal to negotiate about hostages in the Middle East. A strong leader might say that efforts will be made to ban the religion concerned in Japan if the killings go ahead, and I, for one. think that that course of action is justified.
