Reply : From Robert David Steele Author : The Open Source Everything Manifesto by Robert David Steele ISBN 978-1-58394-443-1
A lot of free stuff at http://phibetaiota.net see in particular my latest work, all free online at http://tinyurl.com/Steele-Future. See in particular the Nordic manifesto.
In both the UK and the US the secret intelligence world is out of control and very expensive while also being useless. At the same time, Parliament has not Open Source Agency to create public intelligence (decision-support) in the public interest. My Memorandum to Vice President Biden, which was ignored, is attached.
The UK has two huge problems – the City of London and the monarchy’s ties to organized crime and the Rothchilds. Having said that, I consider London to be the center of the earth and Parliament to have real potential. What is needed is an Open Source Centre, perhaps affiliated with a series of universities and financially sponsored by companies such as Thomson Reuters (which is afraid of the concept of free public information but we can help them get over it).
I welcome an invitation to discuss this on skype with Parliament or Labour staff, with the idea of justifying a trip to London to educate labor leaders on how they can create the world’s first Smart Nation in which every decision by government is rooted in evidence-based open source intelligence – and where the opposing party makes decisions based on payments from special interests, open source intelligence can be used to heap scorn and disdain on those making the decision against the public interest.
Trump’s National Security Advisor understands all this, a discreet approach from Labour to Trump seeking his approval of a joint US-UK Open Source Centre and Network – US money, blended brains – would probably yield $125M to start, toward $2B – I have worked on this for 25 years. Right now what I need is for the highest levels of Labour to understand the opportunity both politically and financially, as well as economically and socially. We can turn the UK into the world’s first jobs-oriented open source everything engineering economy, exporting to Africa, Asia, Arabia, and the Americas (think solar energy plus unlimited water desalination, keeps all those pesky illegal aliens happy at home.
The NATO OSINT Handbook, while out-dated, is the fastest overview (I wrote it).
My shortest summary of what is needed (one page) and my shortest bio (one page) are also attached. My longer bios and most of my publications free online are at http://robertdavidsteele.com.
