We’ve lived so long under the spell of hierarchy—from god-kings to feudal lords to party bosses—that only recently have we awakened to see not only that “regular” citizens have the capacity for self-governance, but that without their engagement our huge global crises cannot be addressed. The changes needed for human society simply to survive, let alone thrive, are so profound that the only way we will move toward them is if we ourselves, regular citizens, feel meaningful ownership of solutions through direct engagement. Our problems are too big, interrelated, and pervasive to yield to directives from on high.

CIA’s Trojan Horse enters the Heart of India

Click here to access article by Shelley Kasli from his website Great Game India. (Shelley Kasli is a geopolitical researcher for international English quarterly Inner Voice of Bharath, who writes articles specific to the Indian subcontinent in the global scenario.)

We have all heard and read about the use of philanthropic foundations (NGOs) to hide the nefarious schemes of the Empire and its secret agents to promote their agenda of world domination. In this article Kasli gives us a lot of background on this development with a special focus on how the Empire's Trojan horses have in the past, and continue, to function in India.
