| Australia’s Waterfront Dispute
As Mercury went direct on Monday we saw the tensions at their peak. Mercury was within 17' of exact applying square to the Australian sun in Capricorn in the 9th. The matter went before the High Court and a decision in favour of the wharfie's reinstatement was made at two sittings - the second yesterday (April 23) - with it held over pending a second appeal by the stevedoring company. transiting (T.) Mercury had moved up to exact square with 9th house sun. DK's comments on this question of capital and labour come to mind : the work of one of the English Masters last century and the fundamental difference between earth and moon chain humanity. Australia's Taurus moon reflects the wharfie's resistant stance as well as some of the inefficiencies and comforts which have crystallised and underlie the dispute. Interesting to note that Neptune, God of the Waters (and shipping) waxes to conjunction with Australia's Aquarian MC, hopefully reflecting a fair humanitarian outcome for the ideals of all. But it may have a way to go yet. T. Mars (and sun) will go over Taurus moon around May 10, as T. Saturn comes up to conjoin Aries Ascendant in late May. This conjunction of Saturn waxes on and off until Feb 1999, and should be a major opportunity for the soul expression of Australia to come forth, not just from this situation, but in many other areas. One of the factors involved is the tensely aspected natal Mars in Virgo (Mercury ruled) in T square to Venus/Uranus and Pluto. These tensions were triggered when T. Node went over Mars in January, whilst T. Pluto started nudging a square to Mars in March, before going retrograde. T. Pluto comes back to the full power of the waxing square to Mars in 1999-2000 - an appropriate time for the clearing of old adolescent patterns before we "come of age" at the Olympics. T. Saturn catches up at the same time for a conjunction with natal moon in early 2000, so we should have plenty of fun and games so to speak. On the sensitivity of transits to the Australian Capricorn sun : in 1975 just before the dismissal of the Whitlam government, "supply" (money) was blocked in Parliament. T. Pluto was closely square the sun. DK says in EA245 "Capricorn is the concrete expression of the Law of Supply". Update 5/5/98 Yesterday's decision by the Supreme Court in favour of the wharfies' reinstatement is by no means over. I don't have the exact time of the news breaking but it was yesterday morning around 10 or 11 am. There are still many thorny negotiations to go through over pay and reinstatement. Transitting Moon was exactly conjunct natal Vesta, which is in turn exactly square natal Taurus moon - so prominent in this dispute and a symbol of the wharfies - as mentioned in an earlier communication.

Sydney - Solar Plexus
Sydney is undergoing its second water scare in as many weeks with some
virulent bugs like cryptospiridium in the system. We have also had record
amounts of rain and dams overflowing for the first time in years. (Jupiter
Pluvius in Pisces - China floods etc) Australia's
Indecent Assault As Neptune still hangs around the MC of Australia's chart, two notable Neptunian themes are in the Australian news - sea fisheries and inland water resources. The sea fisheries is a huge issue on several fronts. Firstly, the methods of modern "industrial fishing" with technology and great efficiency, are simply over-fishing very finite resources and causing environmental damage in many cases. Secondly, many countries are illegally poaching Australian waters, or catching more than allowable quotas. Thirdly, Tasmanian fishermen are at desperation point in trying to survive competetion from foreign imports in the salmon market. Inland Water Supplies For
farmers in southern NSW, the release of water for their crops from the
Kosciusko Dam, is getting equally as desperate as the plight of some
fishermen. Ironically, this massive hydro electric scheme that has such
a recently celebrated place in Australian folklore, is letting down
farmers, the lifeblood of the nation. Murray-Darling Basin Salinity The
other inland water problem is the salinity crisis which affects the
millions of acres that supply much food for Australians. The problem
has been known of for years but is now reaching crisis point, where
people are being forced to act. The crisis has been caused by incorrect
agricultural practices since Australia has been settled, particularly
indiscriminate logging and land clearing. In many areas this clearing
is going on unabated as if there were no tomorrow. Un-Australian Australians It seems that this Neptune transit over Australia's MC in Aquarius needs to awaken the nation to some of the gross injustices being done to Australians by Australians. When we cut through our myths and our sense of national pride, there are some very ugly sores on Australia's underside. With Neptune as ruler of the 11th house of friends and groups, there may be developed a greater sense of working together, a deeper understanding and demonstration of "mateship" and "a fair go" that we so often pride ourselves upon. There are many examples of cynical and pitiful rip-offs by government and major corporations and companies (Aquarius/Ray 7 - large organisations and finance), of ordinary Australians and collective resources, for individual or corporate gain. For instance, the major four Australian banks do not seem to have any sense of moral responsibility, in terms of ploughing back enormous profits into the wellbeing and welfare of Australia. There is plenty of cynical lip service paid, and sponsorship only when there is reciprocated high profile free advertising, yet nothing truly given from the heart. There is a major dis-connectedness between Australians in this respect. Major communication and electric power utilities act in a similar fashion - it seems there are no bounds to their avariciousness. A similar thing is happening with media juggernauts taking over local football teams for profit, destroying needlessly a sense of identity within local communities. At the end of the day, the ordinary Australian, humble and economically modest, simple and salt of the earth, the very essence of Australia, is being treated very badly by his so-called fellow Australians. The gap between rich and poor deepens and widens, with those who have not, thirsting vainly for that which others have. There is a degree of utter disregard of many people for one another, a sense of smug self-satisfaction that reeks from squadrons of expensive four wheel drive and luxury cars - and endless shopping, shopping, shopping........we are due for a wake-up call and the full moon in Taurus may precipitate events that have been building up since the grand cross in the August 11, 1999 eclipse. This materialistic bias is well represented in the Australian horoscope by the Taurus Moon in the first house. It represents acquisition and comfort and is the inertia which holds Australians back. The sesquiquadrate aspect from the Moon to Saturn in Capricorn in the 9th house, reinforces with an earthy conservatism and a certain moral justification.
The 11th house, an area that relates
to corporations, is ruled by Neptune, which is in Gemini, exactly opposed
by Mercury. This opposition can express itself as corporate deception
and manipulation, particularly by media groups. Australia
- Aviation Fuel Contamination Many of the articles written above on Australia recently have focussed upon the extraordinary presence of transiting Neptune sitting on the midheaven of the nation's horoscope. This is no less so with the incredible saga of the contamination of fuel for light aircraft that has had a crippling effect on the industry. Neptune rules oil and fuel traditionally, as well as aviation, along with Uranus. Neptune's transit through Uranus-ruled Aquarius has bought these elements together in an unfortunate combination. As in the above articles, it is the workers again who are at the mercy of this situation, highlighting the energy of Aquarius as a focaliser for fairness in industrial matters and disparities between capital and labour.

She has been held captive in her car in the middle of a bridge, apparently
without food or water for 6 days. So what does her chart say ? Unfortunately
there is no time available yet, but some basic progressions and transits
can be seen. June 19, 1945 Myaungmya, Burma 16n36, 94e56. Phillip Lindsay © 1998 In the chart for China (Oct 1, 1949 3 15 pm, Peking) I mentioned recently the full moon eclipse from July 28, 1999 at 4Aquarius58 - right on China's Aquarian Moon and Ascendant. Her latest sabre rattling exercise with Taiwan is more of the polarity of Mars conjunct Pluto in Leo in the 7th house square to Venus in Scorpio in the 9th.(A semi mutual reception) Transiting Saturn is almost opposite Venus too, but does not come back to exact until April/May 2000. Progressed Mars also conjoins Saturn. At the solar eclipse of August 11, China's natal Mars was exactly squared by Uranus, ruler of the Aquarian placements. The issue with Taiwan is a classic Leo/Aquarius dilemma. Taiwan has her own individuality that she wants to keep, and China wants to take her back into the community (communism) of kingdoms by force. It is very interesting that her Moon in Aquarius may represent her old style of communism, which is being gradually eroded away by Neptune's exact transit over that point this year. So as she may feel a distinct lack of identity, China's point of least resistance right now is to achieve a sense of identity which Mars in Leo represents. Mars is also conjunct Dubhe: "The Pointer nearest to the Pole Star is expressive of a lower aspect of the will, which—in speaking of humanity—we call self-will." (EA196)."this Pointer and the energy emanating from it guides humanity upon the involutionary path, and is constantly active in its influence upon the man who is still upon the Mutable Cross." - (EA196) So is China in her current incarnation on the mutable cross? China's Pluto is conjunct Merak: "The Pointer furthest from the Pole Star in the constellation of the Great Bear. This is, esoterically speaking, a great reservoir or focal point for divine energy, carrying out God's purpose.(EA196) "Then the energy of the Pointer furthest from the Pole Star begins to make its presence felt and a sense of right direction or guidance is registered by the disciple upon the Path, and such guidance (when followed) leads man nearer to the Hierarchy." For a China's ray 1 soul, will and purpose are most important. Is China on the Path or close to it? As a Libran Sun, has she the opportunity of "reversing the wheel" in this incarnation? Transiting Mars has just triggered Venus in Scorpio on Monday when China had the biggest parade of military equipment not seen since 1989. Right now China is in her progressed balsamic moon phase with prog. Moon at 25Scorpio40, prog. Mercury at 26Scorpio31, and prog. Sun at 27Scorpio31. Transiting Chiron has just passed over exact conjunction with prog. Sun. In the next 6 weeks prog. Moon will go over prog. Mercury and reach exact new moon phase when it conjoins prog. Sun. Perhaps more importantly, transiting Mars will go over all the progressed planets in Scorpio. Also, in the next 30 hours, transiting Moon will trigger all those natal and progressed planets in Scorpio. China's invasion of Taiwan is not a matter of if but when. This may pose some very tricky questions for the West, particularly America. In light of the above it is possible that something may happen in the next 10 days to 6 weeks. If it does not, then something has to give by Wesak 2000, where the full moon will be exactly on China's prog.Sun, transiting Saturn, Jupiter and Venus will all oppose natal Venus, and transiting Uranus will square the lot. There is also alot of synastry natally and by progression between America and China, America having just finished her progressed balsamic moon phase. Their respective progressed Sun/Moon phases will always square each other.

Source: Nicholas Campion) Australia (Jan 1, 1901 – 1 35 42 pm – Sydney. Source: Gwen Stoney) John Howard (Jul 26, 1938 – 2 21 am – Sydney. Source: SolarFire4/Aussie.cht) The current East Timor crisis is reflected in the horoscopes of Timor and Indonesia. Timor is an Aquarius rising with a Sun/Neptune conjunction in Sagittarius – she is highly idealistic about attaining her liberation and freedom. Transiting Pluto has been conjunct her Sun these past couple of years, causing the upheaval through which the country as been going. Pluto has now moved to a conjunction of the midpoint of the natal Sun/Neptune conjunction. Transiting Uranus has also been squaring Timor’s progressed Venus in Scorpio, challenging her to transform and regenerate her relations within herself and to other countries such as Indonesia. Timor’s progressed Venus makes an exact T-square to Indonesia’s natal Pluto opposition Venus, reflecting the control and manipulation that the latter has exercised over the former. The position of progressed Venus in Scorpio and natal Uranus in Scorpio point to the depth of intensity in this conflict, as well as the merciless killing that has occurred. Currently transiting Jupiter, soul ruler of the Aquarian ascendant, is opposed to natal Uranus in Scorpio and squares Indonesia’s progressed Venus/Moon. Indonesia’s natal Venus has been stirred up and activated by transiting Uranus these past 12 monthes, with an exact conjunction during the August eclipse. Her progressed Venus and Moon at 3Aquarius00 were also eclipsed in late July 1999. (This is the same degree of China’s natal Moon and Ascendant – see China article) This progressed Venus/Moon of Indonesia happens to square Timor’s natal Uranus, ruler of the Aquarian ascendant. So the theme of freedom in relationships, liberation and autonomy are repeated in several areas. Further to that, Indonesia’s progressed Sun is making an almost exact applying conjunction to Timor’s ascendant. It is moving out of Timor’s 12th house of karmic ties and imprisonment into the new light of day of the first house. Timor’s Aquarian ascendant is being triggered into rebellion and revolution by Indonesia’s progressed Sun as well as all the above-mentioned factors. Timor’s progressed Sun is also exactly opposite natal Mars in Gemini and square natal Moon in Virgo, reflecting the challenge to break ties with the past. The natal Moon square natal Mars is another significator of the volatile nature of Timor. Yet Indonesia’s Mars in very early Libra sits right on Timor’s Moon in very late Virgo, and is expressed currently with the Indonesian military doing a Libran fence-sitting exercise – simply watching as the pro-Indonesia armed gangs create anarchy. The Mars of Indonesia’s chart is part of a quite aggressive grand cross: Mars square Sun in Capricorn which opposes Uranus, squaring Moon in Aries. It was this force that was behind the taking over of East Timor in 1976, which the UN says was illegal. At that time Indonesia was just starting to go through her progressed lunar return in Aries and had progressed Sun at 2Aquarius46, very close to where her progressed Moon/Venus are now. Indonesia has a Moon/Mars oppostion and Timor a Moon/Mars square – both Mars’ are currently triggered. The media are saying that this could be one of Australian prime minister John Howard’s greatest tests, as he may be forced to commit troops (without USA’s backing) and with the very real possibility of engaging the Indonesian army. This has been a scenario for quite a while and looks like now being forced out into the open. Howard’s progressed Sun (29Virgo51) sits just between Timor’s Moon (29Virgo31) and Indonesia’s Mars (0Libra28). Of course it also squares Timor’s progressed Sun/natal Mars square Moon. Howard’s natal Sun (1Leo49) is exactly conjunct Timor’s progressed Saturn (1Leo45). His Sun/Pluto conjunction in Leo makes a strong square to Saturn in Taurus – he usually errs upon the side of caution and is slow to act, but can be most persistent. It will be interesting to see how the ultra conservative Howard deals with this situation as there is much pressure upon him to make a decision. Let us hope it is a true statesman-like decision and not like the economically driven weak responses we have seen with China lately – who happen to be on their first major state visit to Australia at this moment. Howard’s natal Moon in late Scorpio sits on Timor’s MC and his progressed Moon is in early Aquarius conjunct Indonesia’s progressed Moon/Venus. He certainly seems like a man who has a date with destiny. Australian politicians have been dragging their heels on this issue and it is now probably the time for a reckoning, given Australian involvement since before 1975. Australia may be forced to take responsibility now for what she has failed to do in the past, in terms of support for her young neighbour, as well as the lack of action around the disappearance and murder of Australian journalists in 1975. Karmically speaking it is the West’s responsibility per se, with many countries being involved in Timor since the 1500’s – the Dutch, Portugese, French and British. At this time, 2000 Australian troops stand by to spearhead a UN peace-keeping force in the next 48 hours. Australia’s ascendant is in late Aries (conjunct Howard’s Saturn) and part of her dharma is about demonstrating leadership within the family of nations. Australia’s
horoscope has Saturn in Capricorn only 2 degrees from Indonesia’s Sun.
Chiron in very late Sagittarius sits on Timor’s progressed Sun. Howard’s
progressed Saturn straddles Australia’s Aries ascendant. Let us see
what unfolds in the destiny of these nations.
Recently
I discussed Pakistan's chart in relation to India and the August eclipse.
I was looking at the partition charts of 1947. Sun
is in Aries and Aries rising, with ruler Mars in Capricorn conjunct
the MC square the Aries Ascendant. This chart has aspects about it not
unlike Indonesia's chart - in terms of power, will and force.
Turkey
Earthquake 1999
DK gives Turkey as ruled by Cancer at a soul level and Scorpio at a
personality level. The Oct 29, 1923 chart (Ankara 8 30 pm) has a Scorpio
Sun and Cancer rising. "I would point out that Ataturk, the Turkish dictator, within certain personality limitations of relatively negligible moment, made good use of first ray energy, and only the testimony of future historical records will indicate fully how wisely, sanely and disinterestedly he used this type of force for the attainment of first ray objectives. It might be apposite here to point out that such first ray exponents of force are often misunderstood and hated. They may and often do misuse the energy available but they also use it constructively within the desired limits of the immediate plan. I would also like to state that the lot of a first ray disciple is hard and difficult. There are disciples of Shamballa just as there are disciples of the Hierarchy and this is a fact hitherto not recognised and never as yet referred to in the current writings on occult subjects. It is wise and valuable to remember this. They are powerful, these disciples of Shamballa, headstrong and often cruel; they impose their will and dictate their desires; they make mistakes but they are nevertheless true disciples of Shamballa and are working out the Will of God as much as the disciples and Masters of the Hierarchy are working out the Love of God." (DON16)
DK does not give the rays for Turkey, perhaps Ray 1 is one of them as
expressed by this leader. DK's reference to Shamballa is another reminder
of this enormous force that is welling up and waxing stronger for the
next 9 monthes at least - culminating in the Shamballa impact of the
Taurus full moon, May 2000.
Aquarian
Full Moon 2001
The forces involved with this full moon are quite extraordinary. The Sun in Aquarius is very closely conjoined by its ruler Uranus, (and more widely by Mercury) and both oppose the Moon of course. This opposition is squared from both sides by Saturn’s opposition to Mars. Therefore the Grand Cross at this full moon festival consists of Sun, Moon, Uranus, Mercury, Saturn and Mars. I see it as a rather critical configuration because of several factors. The solar eclipse chart of August 1999, which still has a lasting impression in the ethers, is aspected strongly by this chart. The Moon in Aquarius 2001 for instance, is virtually at the same degree as the Sun/Moon conjunction in August 1999. Because the August 1999 eclipse has close synastry with the eclipse of February 2000, and the Wesak full moon of 2000, so does this Aquarian full moon of 2001 with all of them. The synastry mainly has to do with points of the fixed cross squaring and opposing each other in successive charts. Therefore there is a strong possibility that this horoscope will precipitate a powerful world (personal) crisis, as it has come in a long line of similar patterns. The Aquarian full moon chart has much of a positive nature going for it. The Sun/Uranus conjunction can certainly foster a sense of brotherhood, sharing and creative solutions. However, it can also create erratic/eccentric behaviour in those not so attuned to its vibrations, giving an egotistical, self-centered expression. Esoteric ruler of Aquarius, Jupiter, ruler of Ray 2 of Love-Wisdom, is placed in the Ray 2 sign of Gemini, giving an opportunity for deep heart-centered dialogue and communication. In the horoscope set for New York and therefore the Western world, Sagittarius is rising, with Jupiter on the 7th house cusp of relationships – and open enemies. Jupiter is set at a point of tension from its square to Mercury in the last degree of Aquarius, an ‘out of element’ square that puts both planets in air signs. This is quite complimentary and injects some harmony into the square. Overall this is a very powerful aspect for positive change, as long as the powers that be rise to the challenge. Another important consideration of the Aquarian festival is that it is intimately linked to Sirian energies, via its polarity of Leo (Dog Star/August etc). Ray Five of Aquarius, coupled with Ray Two of its soul ruler Jupiter reflect the intrinsic relationship between our Solar Logos and Sirius. Moon in Leo in the ninth house of the New York chart will hopefully instill a sense of ethics and principles into any debate. The real tension in this chart comes from the Saturn in Taurus opposition to Mars in Scorpio. This opposition was present in the aforementioned charts, and exoterically has much to do with squabbles over land ownership, money and the fair distribution of wealth (Saturn), bare-faced aggression and ruthless tactics (Mars). Esoterically it has more to do with the control of desire through mental discipline and the acquisition of spiritual knowledge/understanding. So this grand cross represents an equally large challenge to Humanity as a whole, as well as the aspirants and disciples of the world, both groups ruled over to some degree by the Taurus/Scorpio axis. Turning now to world events, there are some very interesting things happening in the USA and Israel’s charts. Both countries have (or are about to) acquired leaders of the conservative hawkish kind. USAUSA’s Moon at 27Aquarius10 has a very close conjunction of USA’s progressed Sun waxing to exact in the next 12 months. The natal Moon sits in a very tight triangle with USA Sun square Saturn. Both Saturn and the Sun sesquiquadrate back to Moon. Sun in Cancer square Saturn in Libra has much to do with issues of control in relationships with the rest of the world, in terms of its own local environment and self-interests (Moon in third house). It is also about her preoccupation with the law and endless litigation. Sun square Saturn is about the USA’s prison system/business and its hardline ‘three strikes and your out’ policy. The Law is obviously an important challenge as the (Ray 2 soul) USA is the champion of freedom (Sirius/Uranus) and democracy (Ray 2) for the West. So these issues will be triggered over the next 12 months, and Mercury in the 2001 Aquarian full moon chart is closely conjoining the USA’s Moon and progressed Sun. Hence the importance of the aforementioned Mercury square Jupiter in the full moon chart – right communication on behalf of the brotherhood of humanity. George W. BushPresident Bush (6 July 1946) currently has his progressed Mercury conjoining natal Venus at 21Leo00, Venus being the dispositor of his Libran Moon – a large factor in his popularity, and that which is probably behind his “compassionate” political angle. The Sun/Uranus conjunction of this full moon exactly opposes Bush’s Venus (and progressed Mercury) whilst transiting Saturn squares his Venus. The new president will be shortly put through his paces! Bush’s Moon is conjunct the USA Saturn in Libra, and his Sun is conjunct the USA Sun in Cancer. In other words, the unresolved tension of his Sun square Moon fits right over the unresolved tension of USA’s Sun square Saturn. Bush will be undergoing his progressed Moon return in the next few weeks (progressed Moon conjunct Moon). It is in orb now, so will be triggering natal Moon. Bush’s progressed Mars is also conjoining natal Moon for the next few years, but his solar arc Venus (13Libra00) is at the same degree, so hopefully we will see some Libran restraint instead of Mars aggression. Israel Israel’s progressed Sun is conjunct the USA/Bush natal Suns. In a few months time the progressed new Moon (Sun/Moon conjunction) will occur at the same degree. The next few months of this progressed balsamic phase (which they have been in for several months already) could be a time of real darkness and uncertainty for the Israeli people. It is the darkest time of the lunar cycle and also brings with it the process of initiation through the tests that are applied. The tranisting Moon’s north node will also conjunct this degree in the next two weeks. Perhaps the line-up will reflect Sharon’s election win and his alignment/interaction with the conservative USA government. This Aquarian full moon falls on Israel’s progressed Saturn in the 7th house. Sun/Uranus opposing will certainly give Saturn a shake-up – i.e. Israel’s relations to the rest of the world. Progressed Saturn in Israel’s chart squares natal Sun at 23Taurus00 – which took a pounding from several planets at the Wesak Shamballa impact last year: A Ray One race (Jews are Ray 1 soul) gets a Ray One impulse. Transiting Saturn, a planet intimately connected to the Jewish race (Jehovah etc), is now sitting on Israel’s Sun, reflecting the free choice and opportunity the Israelis can now make to define their identity. Ariel Sharon The Israeli’s have chosen, and Ariel Sharon (27 Feb 1928) is now boss. He has a Pisces Sun, Taurus Moon and Aries rising. Jupiter and Uranus in Aries are conjunct the rising sign. Exoteric ruler Mars is in the last degree of Capricorn, exalted and elevated in this horoscope, hence very powerful for this military trained and conditioned person. Interesting that his name Ariel intimates his rising sign Aries. Of most concern is Sharon’s moon at 25Taurus35, at the point of a T-square from Neptune and Mercury. The Taurus Moon is closely conjunct Israel’s Sun and therefore all the aforementioned synastry and transits – particularly that of Saturn sitting on Sharon’s moon for three or four more weeks. The Taurus moon reflects one of his appelations as the “pragmatic bulldozer”. It also speaks of his ruthlessness combined with Ray One Aries, and another of his names “The Butcher of Lebanon”. The massacre of refugees in Beruit in late 1983 early 1984, for which he was held indirectly responsible, happened just after Sharon’s progressed moon return, when the progressed moon was at 29Taurus trining his natal Mars. Sharon’s Taurus Moon on Israel’s Sun here represents a vote by the nation for the past (Sharon has been called a relic) – a past which includes military glory, the use of force, sheer stubborness and national pride. Leonine pride is demonstrated through Israel’s Moon conjunct Pluto in Leo, with Saturn and Mars here also. Israel’s Mars in Leo will be exactly squared by 2001 Aquarius full moon, triggering off Mars’ natal square to Israel’s Scorpio midheaven – also Mars/Pluto ruled. Added to this is the synastry with the previously described USA and Israel. Sharon’s Pluto sits on USA and Bush’s Sun, hence becoming an extremely pervasive force to be reckoned with. Sharon distrusts the US and was rejected by both the Bush (Snr) and Reagan administrations. Sharon’s progressed Sun at 19Taurus15 is being precisely squared by this Aquarius full moon. His Neptune sits on Israel’s Mars. Sharon’s Aries rising soul ruler, Mercury in Pisces, opposes Neptune in Leo, forming the T-square to the Taurus Moon. The aforesaid negative traits of Sharon are not just the Taurus moon, but its part of the Mercury/Neptune configuration. This T-square can be interpreted as extremely manipulative and deceptive, especially with Mercury in the 12th house. This synopsis is meant to be impartial, even though it may sound a little “anti” in some areas. It is not for me to judge these entities, just observe and lay out some facts. However, history has judged some of them already thus far, and unless miracles happen overnight, some things will stay the same – with the corresponding predictable results. Phillip
