Both
Technocracy and
Transhumanism have taken permanent root
in the Islamic world.
The
UAE wants to be the global leader in Financial
Technologies (FinTech) and also be the first to colonize
outer space.
Further, they covet the Transhuman idea of escaping
death.
They
are also tightly bonded with the World Economic Forum
and the United Nations.
The 'World Government Summit' was co-founded by the World
Economic Forum, a Western construct seeks world
domination through Technocracy and Transhumanism.
The
fully autocratic Islamic world is a perfect seedbed for
both to flourish because the people have nothing to say
about it.

During the World Government Summit 2023, which was held in
Dubai in
the United Arab Emirates on February 13-15, the chairman of the
World Economic Forum,
Klaus Schwab, proclaimed that,
whoever
controls the technologies of the fourth industrial revolution will
be the master of the world...
Schwab was introduced by the chairman of the meeting, Mohammed
bin Abdullah Al Gergawi.
It was obvious who was higher in rank...
Even in the recently
released commemorative film for the tenth anniversary of the World
Government Summit, Schwab is the opening speaker. 1
World Government Summit was founded in 2013 as "Government Summit"
by the absolute monarch of Dubai, Mohammed bin Rashid al Maktoum (he
is also the Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates).
According to Schwab, the
meeting was functioning like a "little brother" to the World
Economic Forum annual meeting
in Davos.
In 2016, the Government
Summit was upgraded to become an organization, and the name changed
to the "World Government Summit" to reflect its ambitions to play a
greater role on the international arena and strengthen its
cooperation with global institutions and organizations such as the
UN, WEF and the World Bank. 2
To underline this, the
SDGs in Action initiative was started in the same year. 3
The purpose of the forum is to form a knowledge platform at the,
"intersection between government, futurism, technology and
innovation."
Besides Gergawi, the leadership consists of the two UAE
ministers:
All
three are closely associated with
the World Economic Forum...
Gergawi is a member of
the WEF Leadership Council while Ohood and Omar are
Young Global
Leaders (class of 2012 and 2022, respectively).
Mohammad Al Gergawi,
Minister of Cabinet Affairs UAE
and Chairman of
the World Government Summit
World Economic Forum is both a co-founder and a close strategic
partner.
Today, the World Government Summit is very much their
branch
in the Middle East, while the
Sultanate of Dubai in turn
serves as a laboratory where the futuristic concepts and
technologies that Schwab propagates in his books can be tested.
It
is a futuristic model country and constitutes the futurists' own Mecca...
This year, for example,
the United Arab Emirates announced its intention to launch a
digital
central bank currency (CBDC).
4
The country also created
a space program in 2006 which led to a space probe being sent to the
planet Mars in 2021.
But
the United Nations has also participated as a strategic partner
since the beginning.
Since then, a number of subsidiary bodies such
as UNESCO, UNICEF, ILO and WHO have joined.
This also shows that the WEF and the UN have been working closely
for several years before their partnership became official in June
2019.
Börge Brende & Klaus Schwab (WEF)
and António Guterres & Amina
Mohammed (UN)
The UN also has a close relationship with the United Arab Emirates
(through a strategic partnership) since the country gained
independence from the United Kingdom over 50 years ago.
The country is today the
UN's logistics hub in the Middle East and a large number of UN
agencies are represented in the country.
This year, the UN climate meeting COP28 will also be arranged in
Dubai. 5
Given that the country
houses the world's sixth largest oil reserves and seventeenth
largest natural gas reserves, it will undeniably be a bit difficult
to take their concern for the climate seriously.
The entire
country's wealth and the futuristic metropolis of Dubai have been
built with the help of the gigantic oil revenues. Rather, their
commitment is about the technological transformation that the
"climate crisis" motivates.
The
United Arab Emirates is an autocratic monarchy without popular
representation and has committed numerous human rights violations.
The fact that Klaus Schwab sees no problems with the close
collaboration is perhaps understandable.
No opposition is allowed
that can say no to the futuristic surveillance agenda...
But the fact
that the supposedly humanitarian UN is in close partnership with
authoritarian and powerful leaders is all the more difficult to
digest.
But on the other hand, all of the world's approximately 30
dictatorships are members of the UN...
In addition to Klaus Schwab, this year's meeting was attended by a
number of the faithful squires of the agenda such as,
-
World Trade
Organization head Ngozi Iweala
-
IMF head Kristalina Georgieva
-
WHO
head
Tedros Ghebreyesus (Tedros
was already there in 2018 and talked about creating "a world
without 'pandemic's"!!) 6
-
Henrietta Fore
(UNICEF)
-
Nick Clegg (Meta)
-
contradictory
futurist Elon Musk (SpaceX, Neuralink och Starlink)...
The summit also gathers a number of member companies with close ties
to World Economic Forum like,
-
Google
-
Meta
-
Amazon
-
Visa
-
PWC
-
McKinsey
-
Boston Consulting Group
-
Accenture...
In his "State of the World address" [!], Klaus Schwab declared that
we are at the beginning of an extensive technological transformation
that will change everything in the coming decades.
Artificial Intelligence, but not only
Artificial Intelligence, but
also
the Metaverse, new space technologies, and I could go on and
on. Synthetic Biology... Our life in ten years from now will be
completely different…
According to Klaus, it is important to take the lead in this
development in order to ultimately stand as "the ruler of the
world"...
…and who masters those technologies, in some way, will be the master
of the world.
In order to emerge as a winner in the end, developing the necessary
leadership skills is crucial.
What Klaus is referring to is that it is the compliant, adaptable,
and resilient who will do best.
That is to say, those who enter the
futuristic path and the idea of the sustainable utopia that Klaus
and the WEF represent...
He also said that it is important to be
prepared for unpleasant surprises...!
Because there will be certainly what we call the
black swans. The
unpleasant surprises which will come in our way.
(A "black swan" is "an unlikely and unpredictable event that could
potentially have serious consequences".)
According to Klaus,
the current global crises that have created a fragmented world
should not really be seen as crises because they are in fact an
expression of,
"deep systemic transformation processes".
Klaus also predicts
that the upheaval processes we have seen in recent years will
escalate.
This largely
follows the scenarios outlined by
Rockefeller Foundation's Scenarios
for the Future of Technology and Development and in the
UN-backed Great Transition Initiative.
It's lead author,
the futurist Paul Raskin, wrote in Journey
to Earthland - The Great Transition to Planetary Civilization (2016):
…various
triggers could induce a general, system-wide crisis.
To wit, abrupt
climate change could generate food shortages, economic
instability, mass migration, and conflict.
A 'pandemic', spread by
the mobile affluent and uprooted poor, could ripple far and
wide, overwhelming healthcare institutions.
The mayhem
induced by a macro-terrorist attack could segue into a
degenerative cycle of violence and disorder.
Absolute shortage
of vital resources, such as water, oil, and arable land, could
generate a tsunami of chaos.
A collapse of
the global financial system could ignite a cascade of knock-on
disruption.
7
It is not a
question of returning to the world as it existed before the crises
hit.
What is happening
is that the old world is being smashed to pieces so that the new and
"better" order can rise like a Phoenix.
Schwab talks about
"we" having to re-globalize the world. But this time with a new
management that can effectively "sanitize carbon dioxide" and lead
the world to zero emissions by 2050.
Back to Raskin's
scenarios for the future:
The Planetary
Phase, born of systemic crisis, urges a systemic response...
A Revitalized UN
This is where
the United Nations enters the stage as
a savior...
During the summit, UN
Secretary-General António Guterres, in a speech from UN
headquarters, said,
the World Government Summit has established a
global platform that will help shape the governments of the future...
Guterres spoke of the
need to strengthen global governance to deal with
the "climate
disaster" as well as to meet the global sustainability goals:
We need everyone - across the private sector, civil society, and
beyond - to work together for the common good. This is our common agenda.
Guterres believes he has the answer to the systemic crisis hitting
the world after the 'pandemic' and the 'war in Ukraine'...
The UN's
Our Common
Agenda, which was introduced in 2021 and is expected to be adopted
at the Summit of the Future, in September 2024 will offer a whole
new set of tools for effectively managing 'world crises' (and world
population).
More specifically, the
planned Emergency Platform is intended to gather select
representatives of the global community (UN bodies, corporations,
and civil society) to address "emergencies" such as,
"climate
crises", "pandemics", "black swan events" and "major events in
space".
(Read more about this in my article
Emergency Platform)
This could have far-reaching consequences and echoes the
authoritarian Fortress World scenario in Great Transition, where "an
upgraded UN" is used as a coordinating platform to,
implement
draconian measures using Big Data and surveillance technology in
order to protect the interests and resources of the "new power
elite".
The World Government Summit provides a forum where all these ideas
are given traction. They intend not only to try and predict future
development, but also,
to help steer
it in a desired direction...
As Klaus Schwab said
during The Great Narrative Meeting in Dubai in November 2021:
In order to shape the
future, you have first to imagine the future. You have to design
the future. And then you have to execute. 8
Through the WGS
interactive tool "Technology Radar" you can also get an insight into
the future that the futurists desire and how far technological
development has come in a number of different areas.
More than 150 emerging
technologies are identified here, mapped out, each positioned to
indicate its stage of maturity. 9
The wheel reads like a
map over every dystopian science fiction concept ever envisioned and
has subheadings like,
But this time, not to
warn us about them but rather to celebrate the fact that they are
finally available, or expected to be in the near future.
Here, we find descriptions of how a social credit system might work:
This technological
development could either help citizens achieve optimal
citizenship scores or lead to ostracism and, ultimately, exile.
Different surveillance systems could immediately flag citizens
with low scores, following them more closely than citizens with
high scores.
Any misbehavior, no
matter the severity, would be noted and immediately punished
with the help of robot police audits.
Dubai Future
Forum
Museum of the Future, Dubai
In October 2022, the Dubai Future Forum conference was organized for
the first time in the Museum of the Future.
Behind the initiative is
the Dubai Future Foundation, which is led by Crown Prince Sheikh
Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum (YGL 2008) and which also
includes the leading Troika from the World Government Summit.
In cooperation with World
Economic Forum, the Dubai Future Foundation is also managing the
local Center for the Fourth Industrial Revolution in United Arab
Emirates . 10
The meeting gathered 45 international institutions and 400 experts
with the aim of "designing the future".
Here, themes such as "the
Future of our World", "Mitigating Existential Risk through
Foresight", and the possibilities for human civilization to become
an "interplanetary civilization" were discussed. 11
The agenda was clearly
interwoven with the UN's future agenda (To Think and act for Future
Generations) through the participation of both UN Global Pulse and
UN Future Forum.
Among the speakers were
Swedish transhumanist Anders Sandberg from the Future of
Humanity Institute and Jerome Glenn from The
Millennium Project.
During the meeting, the Global Future Society was also founded.
An
alliance of futurists set up to make the Museum of the Future in
Dubai a home for the world's futurists and visionaries. 12
This is like the modern
equivalent of the Holy Roman Emperor Rudolph II's quest to gather
all the leading alchemists in Prague in the 16th century.
The
Futurists are the 21st century alchemists.
In a conversation between
Al Gergawi and fellow futurist Dr.
Michio Kaku discussed the enormous technological changes
expected in the next 50 years.
Just like Schwab, Kaku
envisions a
transhumanist future that changes the very definition of
what it means to be human.
A total fusion
between man and machine...
Computers will disappear
and will be replaced by chips embedded in our brains.
We will communicate
telepathically - and we will be able to record our memories and
emotions.
Television will disappear, too, and the internet will be
neurologically wired.
We'll be using quantum computers faster and
more powerful than anything we've seen before. 13
Kaku also believes that the digitization of the brain will lead to
us becoming immortal.
For futurists, there seems to be no doubt whatsoever. They dream of
making a digital 'ascension'... to become superhumans in the new
millennium.
Wanting to preserve our
humanity and society as it is and foregoing the offer to be
"upgraded" with implants is classified as backward-looking and "bioconservative".
As Klaus Schwab stated in
his speech:
You can not catch up
with the new technologies. You have to be a front runner.
Because otherwise you will be on the losing side.
We seem to have been
taken over by an extreme and bizarre techno cult.
The question is,
How can we save
ourselves from these unrealistic utopians with delusions of
grandeur and create a future that truly benefits our humanity...?
Maybe it's time for a
"Major Outer Space Event" where this futurist cult is sent on a
one-way trip to Mars...?
Elon Musk has
declared his intention to take off with SpaceX in 2029.
The question is,
can we afford to wait
that long...?
