The Triangle Of Peace Foundation: Redefining Sinister, Shitting On Us All

My instincts say, “What the hell is this?”

I am writing this article completely cold, and I want you to come with me, because everything about this advert says “sinister”; it says “hypocrisy”; it says “cover up”; it says “business as usual”. It says lots of things and none - because you are only meant to wonder. There is no telephone number; there is no web site.

It is aimed at big business, and my bet is that it is the start of a new club in which the remaining “masters of the universe” reposition themselves as the saviours of the human race.

Let’s see if I am right.

Google search: “the triangle of peace foundation” = no hits.

Google search: “triangle of peace” = 59,000 hits.

A quick browse finds  http://www.triangleofpeace.tv and a video which puts the United Arab Emirates in the driving seat:

“Peace and stability through trade”. What do you think of that? Trade is ultimately the cause of all anthropogenic global warming, and a leading cause of social hardship (think slavery, sweatshops and urban deprivation). Is this The Triangle Of Peace Foundation?

There is an Invitation to a star-studded Reception Dinner, based at Jumeirah Essex House, New York. Let’s find the address of this hotel…

…it’s at NY 10019, so not far away from the address given above. But this looks too similar to the sense of the print advert, so let’s find out more. Back to the Google search…

Bingo! It is launch day, today, in the UAE, according to Cityscape Intelligence [ http://www.cityscapeintelligence.com/page/253902/triangle-of-peace-launched?country=China]. The article says:

"The Triangle of Peace initiative has been launched by a collective led by Sheikh Nahyan bin Zayed Al-Nahyan.

"Dhabian Holdings and the World Trade Centers Association and the World Trade Centers Management Company are all behind the $3.2 million proposal which is hoping to provide a programme which will help build sustainable communities.

"More than one million corporations are to be involved in the project when it is officially launched in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on November 10th.

"Guy Tozzoli, president of World Trade Centers Association, said: “The Triangle of Peace Initiatives are essentially three programs for building new and restoring and rejuvenating existing cities.

"They offer a higher quality of life as well as a variety of social and economic benefits united by a vision of peace brought about by trade, he added.

"On September 23rd the project was officially announced in New York and enrolled in the United Nations’ Global Partnerships programme."

There is so much wrong with this whole concept, I don’t know where to start, but I do know that we have found the source of the advert, and also that the following organisations are involved:

- The government of the United Arab Emirates (an oil-rich dictatorship, dependent on global trade)

- Many, many corporations (which would obviously define trade as being the most important thing…ever)

- The Clinton Global Initiative (members only global projects body)

- World Trade Centers Association (a organization dedicated to expanding world trade, strapline “Peace and Stability Through Trade” - where have we seen that before?!)

- United Nation Global Partnership Program (I can’t find any official reference to this, but as an example of the kinds of bodies enrolled in this Program, take a look at this one [ http://www.wtuglobal.org/WTU/Content/What%20We%20Do.html], which offers courses in everything you need to f*ck up the planet!)

What is particularly significant, but not surprising given the level of stupidity practiced by many people in the public eye, is the level of support this work is garnering outside of the commercial arena (or at least being shown as support); especially as this does indeed appear to derive simply from one, very small, very rich playground: Dubai. So sad, yet so symptomatic of how dumb civilization can be.

Given that information, I’ve decided to add the rather unsavoury, but accurate subtitle, “Shitting On Us All” to this article.

Ok, so where now? Well, it’s clear that *The Triangle Of Peace Foundation is a front for expanding global trade*, under the pretence of peace and sustainability, but far more than that, it appears to be both fronting a number of massive development projects to enrich the bank accounts of its members (see this press release [ http://www.gowealthy.com/gowealthy/wcms/en/home/news/events/-3-2billion-NThe-Triangle-of-P-1224573667041.html] to see the level of glee one real estate web site expresses over the idea), and also acting as a focus for many of the worlds richest and most powerful people to make themselves richer and more powerful.

I was right.

Open your eyes.
