Shahid Bolsen delivers an unflinching indictment of American society — from the epidemic of mass shootings and institutional child abuse to celebrity compliance culture and the music industry's financialized mediocrity — arguing that these aren't isolated scandals but symptoms of deep, generational psychological and moral damage.
He traces this back to the country's failed attempts, across centuries, to destroy Islam, and explains why those efforts were always doomed. The talk closes with a direct message: recognizing the dysfunction of a society doesn't make anyone immune to carrying its damage, and the real task is repairing what that culture has done to you, not trying to fix the culture itself.

N.B: Voltman agrees completely and absolutely with this learned and truthful man.
29 comments:
1. MAN
(A)
MAN — spiritual man. Only men speak of men; the state only recognizes “PERSONS” = dead entities with commercial value to the STATE.
(B)
William Blackstone, Commentaries on the Laws of England (1765), Book I, Chapter I, “Of the Absolute Rights of Individuals.” Blackstone describes natural persons as those “the God of nature formed us” and speaks of “particular men, merely as individuals or single persons.” Historical legal bridge: MAN → INDIVIDUAL / SINGLE PERSON → NATURAL PERSON.
2. VESSEL
(A)
MAN → occupies / possesses → VESSEL Christian reference, long understood: a vessel for the spirit/spark from GOD. State defines “vessel” as “Ship means a seagoing vessel of any type whatsoever...” So “ship” is salvaged as an abandoned vessel by the state and the artificial statutory person using assumption and presumption, salvage took place at or around birth with the creation and application of the legal identity via the birth certificate.
(B)
Wrecked, Abandoned or Hazardous Vessels Act, S.C. 2019, c. 1, s.15(1), definition “vessel”: “vessel has the meaning assigned by the definition ship in Article 1 of the Wreck Removal Convention, but includes non-seagoing vessels.”
Wrecked, Abandoned or Hazardous Vessels Act, S.C. 2019, c. 1, Schedule 1, Article 1(2), definition “Ship”: “Ship means a seagoing vessel of any type whatsoever...”
3. PERSON
(A)
PERSON → CORPORATION → assumption/presumption of already-abandoned VESSEL/status when birth certificate issued Then into operative maritime framework. There are no natural persons or men and women in Canada. Only assumed ships - vessels claimed by the Crown under - Wrecked, Abandoned or Hazardous Vessels Act, S.C. 2019, c. 1, s.32(2).
(B)
Interpretation Act, R.S.C. 1985, c. I-21, s.35(1), definition “person”: “person, or any word or expression descriptive of a person, includes a corporation”.
4. ABANDONMENT / ENTRY / STATUS CHANGE
(A)
MAN → tacitly applies a legal identity to his offspring → status change occurs → assumed abandonment by the state → VESSEL/status through joinder of the birth certificate and the CAPITAL NAME, which, in the Canadian Style Manual, historically points to a corporation through its capitalization → Interpretation Act, s.35(1): “person” used throughout the statutory system; MAN does not exist in the statutory system.
(B)
Wrecked, Abandoned or Hazardous Vessels Act, S.C. 2019, c. 1, s.32(2): where the statutory conditions are met, the owner is “in the absence of evidence to the contrary, presumed to have abandoned it.”
By tacit agreement through Interpretation Act, R.S.C. 1985, c. I-21, s.35(1), definition “person”:
“person, or any word or expression descriptive of a person, includes a corporation”.
6. INCLUDES
(A)
Includes → containing / enclosing operation ≠ “in addition to.” Most people believe this word is expansive.
It is not. Look up the Latin root meaning. The state uses this word more than any other to steal your rights.
(B)
Legal-dictionary entry supplied in this research: INCLUDE, Lat. in claudere, “to shut in, keep within”; “To confine within, attain, shut up, contain, inclose, comprise, comprehend, embrace, involve.” The entry separately states that including may, according to context, operate as enlargement or specify a particular thing already included within general words. Asserted model applies the containing/enclosing operation.
7. CANADA
(A)
CANADA → Includes → INTERNAL WATERS + TERRITORIAL SEA CANADA = WATER TERRITORY → ADMIRALTY JURISDICTION
(B)
Interpretation Act, R.S.C. 1985, c. I-21, s.35(1), definition “Canada”:
“Canada, for greater certainty, includes the internal waters of Canada and the territorial sea of Canada”.
8. INTERNAL WATERS — PHYSICAL / HISTORIC AND STATUTORY MEANING
(A)
Real physical and historic internal waters = lakes, rivers, brooks, ponds, etc. — accessed by land by people (men, women, and children) and other living creatures, large and small. However, statutory language using “Canada includes” (“includes” limiting) is telling us they interpret no land in Canada, in their “lets pretend world”.
(B)
Interpretation Act, R.S.C. 1985, c. I-21, s.35(1), definition “internal waters”, para. (a):
INTERNAL WATERS → means → internal waters of Canada determined under the Oceans Act.
Another crazy example:
BC Assessment Act [RSBC 1996] CHAPTER 20
“land” includes
(a) land covered by water,
(b) quarries, and
(c) sand and gravel,
but does not include coal or other minerals;
9. INTERNAL WATERS cont.
(A)
AIRSPACE ABOVE THOSE WATERS ⊂ INTERNAL WATERS — the statutory term “internal waters” encompasses the airspace above those waters. So, with the use of “includes,” air over Canada (Canada is all water remember, out to the territorial seas), and so the airspace is in admiralty jurisdiction, just like the “waters” below.
(B)
Interpretation Act, R.S.C. 1985, c. I-21, s.35(1), definition “internal waters”, para. (a): includes the airspace above and the bed and subsoil below those waters.
10. TERRITORIAL SEAS
(A)
TERRITORIAL SEAS → is both land and water and Air too! As the definition of Canada tells us, internal waters are Canada too; so there is no land in Canada.
(B)
Interpretation Act, R.S.C. 1985, c. I-21, s.35(1), definition “Canada”:
“Canada, for greater certainty, includes the internal waters of Canada and the territorial sea of Canada”.
11. OCEANS ACT REFERENCE
(A)
INTERNAL WATERS OF CANADA → waters landward of territorial-sea baselines.
Interestingly, Land is not defined in Canada so landward has no legal significance.
(B)
Oceans Act, S.C. 1996, c. 31, s.6:
“The internal waters of Canada consist of the waters on the landward side of the baselines of the territorial sea of Canada.”
12. SHIP / SEAGOING VESSEL — ASSUMPTION / PRESUMPTION
(A)
CANADIAN PERSONS → floating on the Canadian WATERS OF ADMIRALTY/COMMERCE → NO LAND → they are SHIPS. Remember — SHIP = “any SEAGOING VESSEL WHATSOEVER”.
There is only water in CANADA! If you are a citizen you are navigating the waters in your SHIP!
(B)
Wrecked, Abandoned or Hazardous Vessels Act, S.C. 2019, c. 1, s.32(2):
“in the absence of evidence to the contrary, presumed to have abandoned it.”
Wrecked, Abandoned or Hazardous Vessels Act, S.C. 2019, c. 1, Schedule 1, Article 1(2), definition “Ship”:
“Ship means a seagoing vessel of any type whatsoever...”
13. OWNER CONSENT
(A)
OWNER CONSENT → on the statutory side, it’s telling us that the conversion of the human vessel — salvage — does not require consent.
(B)
Wrecked, Abandoned or Hazardous Vessels Act, S.C. 2019, c. 1, s.38(3): authorized person is “not required to obtain the consent of its owner” for the specified registration/licensing.
14. POSSESSION
(A)
ANY PERSON → may be authorized → TAKE POSSESSION. This allows third-party “commercial entities” — banks + insurance + utilities + etc, etc. — to interface with and use the CAPITALIZED PERSON that was salvaged under admiralty by the state.
(B)
Wrecked, Abandoned or Hazardous Vessels Act, S.C. 2019, c. 1, s.38(1):
Minister may “authorize any person to take possession” of all or part of the vessel or thing.
A= my interpretation B= statutory language
I'm just scratching the surface, but this illustrates how they bend us over and lube us up.
2. VESSEL(A)
MAN → occupies / possesses → VESSEL Christian reference, long understood: a vessel for the spirit/spark from GOD. State defines “vessel” as “Ship means a seagoing vessel of any type whatsoever...” So “ship” is salvaged as an abandoned vessel by the state and the artificial statutory person using assumption and presumption, salvage took place at or around birth with the creation and application of the legal identity via the birth certificate.
I just realized - Article 1 of the Wreck Removal Convention, but includes non-seagoing vessels.” I think this refers to death death, No?
The answers to the Canadian fuckery is in the Canadian Maritime statutes. IMHO
1 Thessalonians 4:4: "That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;"
The Meaning: Paul instructs believers to control their physical bodies and fleshly desires in a holy manner.
2 Corinthians 4:7: "But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us."
The Meaning: The "flesh" is a fragile jar of clay holding a divine, spiritual treasure (the Gospel and the Holy Spirit)
In Romans 9, Paul uses the fleshly container metaphor to describe how God sovereignly molds human beings:
Romans 9:21: "Hath not the potter power over the clay, of the same lump to make one vessel unto honour, and another unto dishonour?
"Romans 9:22: "...endured with much longsuffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction:
"Romans 9:23: "And that he might make known the riches of his glory on the vessels of mercy, which he had afore prepared unto glory,"
2 Timothy 2:21: "If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work."
The Meaning: A call to cleanse oneself from fleshly or ungodly behavior to become a clean tool for God
1 Peter 3:7: "Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel..."
The Meaning: In context, "weaker" refers to physical frame and biological vulnerability, treating the wife's physical body/flesh with care.

One again wonders where the 9/11 truth movement failed. It’s not from the failure of the leading truthers or even the many of us talking on forums and raising it all with friends, relatives, and within political parties. The failure of nerve is not even among the plebs. How can Orwell’s prolls ever be anything than prolls?
The failure of nerve has been among the nominally educated in middle positions of government, industry, and academia. The failure of nerve has been because career progression has simply been more important than truth. There has been a failure across the world to among millions of greasy pole climbers to state simple truths among colleagues that might collectively have changed things to make the world a better place.
In this way the evil perpetrators “bargain” their continued compact with a world of cowards. On one side of the accounting sheet there are vast profits and misery. On another part of the balance sheet there are millions of mortgages, holidays, and season tickets for this vast world wide army of greasy pole climbing cowards.

The USA Inc does a similar thing, Here is an excerpt from web, do your own research!
The entire fraud against the American States and American State Citizens relies upon men wearing many different "hats" at the same time, and exercising those offices—often in direct conflict of interest with each other—at the same time.
It also depends on immense amounts of semantic deceit via the use of similar names.
The United States that Lincoln entered into bankruptcy was not the American nation, or even a union of states. It was a commercial company formed by Ben Franklin in 1754, a privately owned and operated commercial company that received all the juicy governmental services contracts explicitly described as the “nineteen enumerated Powers” delegated to this new company—plus, the responsibility to oversee and manage and protect The United States Trust (1789).
If you look up the original equity contract establishing the “federal” government, you will see that it is called “The Constitution for the united States of America” and that it is a two part document. The first part, the Preamble, is a trust indenture that was later supplemented by the Bill of Rights. The second part is a governmental services contract. The United States (Company) that Franklin started and that Lincoln bankrupted was an odd blend of Trust Management Organization (TMO) and governmental services company.
All successors to that original contract have similarly been charged with the responsibility of protecting the national trust and providing governmental services.
After the Civil War we went through “reconstruction”—also known as bankruptcy reorganization—and a new Trust Management Organization was formed doing business as the United States of America, Incorporated. This entity was chartered by the Roman Catholic Church in Delaware as a religious non-profit organization. It was purchased by the Federal Reserve Banks in 1912, run into the ground, and bankrupt in 1933. This time, the goons operating the “federal” government moved to implement a giant Reverse Trust Scam aimed at the assets of The United States Trust (1789).
FDR did this by claiming that the American States and American State Citizens were voluntary “sureties” backing the debts of “the United States of America, Inc.” This gave the European bankers the excuse needed to “hypothecate” maritime liens against the property and assets of the American States and the American State Citizens. Hypothecation is a means of stealthy theft, similar to what happens when you agree to co-sign a car loan. A lien is established against your property, but the lien isn’t exercised as long as the “person” you co-signed for pays his bills on time.
FDR volunteered us to stand good for credit extended to “the United States of America, Inc.” and its “secondaries” in bankruptcy. The process of hypothecation allows the bank to establish a title claim against real property without the necessity of physically obtaining the title, so nobody knew the difference. We were all assumed to agree to this because we didn’t speak up and object, but then, we could hardly object to a contract if we didn’t know that it existed, could we?
In 1944, FDR quit claimed all the assets and liabilities of “the United States of America, Inc.” to the International Monetary Fund, an agency of the UN. The IMF set up yet another Trust Management Company calling itself the UNITED STATES (INC.) to administer the juicy federal service contracts while “the United States of America, Inc.” was in Chapter 11 Reorganization.
As of July 1, 2013, the United States of America, Inc., which was owned and operated by the FEDERAL RESERVE, which in turn was newly chartered under the “United Nations”—a separate independent city state operating on our shores—was released from bankruptcy.
All debts were settled and discharged. This means that the IMF d.b.a. the UNITED STATES can no longer charge us and the several states for government services—quite aside from the fact that it was all fraud to begin with and they never should have "presumed" us to be sureties at all. Now the IMF must get "us" to re-contract with it, while the FEDERAL RESERVE is attempting to assert its prior right to the service contracts.
Central to all this fraud is the process of 're-venuing'—where the lawyers redefine you and your natural estate as "THINGS"—as "legal fiction entities"—to better plunder your assets.
Most recently, you were presumed "dead, missing at sea" and your ESTATE trust (a Roman Inferior Trust) was "removed" to Puerto Rico. These ESTATE trusts, named after living Americans, do business in NAMES styled like, JOHN QUINCY ADAMS, and they are all forced to function under the maritime jurisdiction of Puerto Rico—a Commonwealth member of a consortium of "American states" including Guam, American Samoa, the State of New Wew Columbia (DC), and entities more commonly thought of as "federal territories and possessions"—but functioning as a separate nation calling itself "the United States of America" (minor).
You've been presumed to be legally dead all of your life. You've been presumed to be voluntarily employed as a caretaker of your own estate (for free) and a chattel thereof. Thus the rats have contrived to cheat the beneficiaries of The United States Trust (1789) subject to the whims of the "US CONGRESS" and have contrived to beat them out of their natural inheritance and to subject them to peonage and "debt slavery" caused by the enforced use of "notes"—that is, I.O.U's—instead of money.
"Notes" are not money. Notes are a means of conveying never ceasing debt. This is the scam that has been used to force everyone in America to “accept” worthless paper “in equitable exchange” for real assets.
Now, once again, the same old scam is being set up. The IMF’s franchise d.b.a. UNITED STATES, INC. is being prepared for bankruptcy. Mr. Obama has run its credit beyond the hilt, and just as the Federal Reserve bankrupted “the United States of America, Inc.” in 1933 and pretended that we and our property were all sureties “standing good” for its debts, the IMF will pretend that all the Puerto Rican ESTATE trusts are “legal” assets belonging to it, ready for the picking of its creditor — the “UNITED NATIONS”.
So as the UNITED STATES, INC. prepares to go bankrupt, all your ESTATES are being “redefined” and “revenued” again — this time, you are supposed to be transmitting utilities operating under names styled like this: “JOHN Q. PUBLIC” — owned and operated by the UNITED NATIONS and subject to its “laws” and the whims of its directors.
If you don’t vehemently object, and directly to Secretary General Ki-Ban Moon, and to Pope Francis, and to the US POSTMASTER GENERAL, and put your feet down by the millions, they will get away with this gratuitous fraud against you and your States and your private assets once again.
Spread the word and make it count. Stomp on the toes of those pretending to be “your” representatives in the US Congress and tell them that they have done you a gross disservice and breached both trust and contract. Hold them accountable for this mess. HOLD THEM ALL ACCOUNTABLE. Tell them that they have criminally mismanaged the United States Trust (1789) and you will not pay for the fraud practiced against you and will not honor any of the agreements made “in your behalf” by these false representatives since December 31, 1865 — the day that the original Republic ceased to function as a nation.
This situation is nothing less than attempted Identity Theft of an entire nation and its people. It cannot be allowed to stand. Let the world see that we have been overtaken by criminals. Let it be firmly understood that they do NOT represent the American State nor the American State Citizens.
"The failure of nerve has been because career progression has simply been more important than truth."
This is, and has always been, the problem Volt! The quest for a full belly, in scarcity model will almost always compel the scared meat suit with limited spiritual consciousness, to do terrible things to it's fellow man.
INCLUDE and INCLUDING — the lunch-counter test
The lunch counter has a fruit list:
FRUIT INCLUDES: apples, oranges, bananas, grapes, lemons and limes.
That is the defined list called FRUIT.
Today the lunch lady says:
“Fruit, INCLUDING apples and bananas, is available today.”
INCLUDING is working inside the FRUIT list. Apples and bananas were already included; including simply identifies some of the things within it.
A child asks:
“When are you getting star fruit?”
The lunch lady answers:
“Star fruit isn't on our FRUIT list. We never stock it.”
Star fruit may be a fruit in the ordinary world, but it isn't part of the defined FRUIT list at this lunch counter.
So the distinction is:
INCLUDES → establishes what is contained within the defined list.
INCLUDING → identifies things already contained within that list.
If the lunch counter wanted the list to be expressly open-ended, it could say:
“FRUIT includes apples, oranges, bananas, grapes, lemons, limes, AND ANY OTHER FRUIT WHATSOEVER.”
Now the additional words “any other fruit whatsoever” perform the open-ended operation.
The above little example must be understood when you read a statute. I have tested friends and they fail this basic logic and think including is globally expansive . We are almost all products of a shitty public school system. LOL
Id assert that there is likely some kind of pooled asset administration or, more technically, aggregation and omnibus accounting.
If the underlying things generate future cash flows, the closer financial term is receivables pooling. If interests in that pool are then turned into tradable financial instruments, it becomes securitization. If many individually attributable interests are represented upstream by one consolidated position while detailed ownership remains on subsidiary books, that's omnibus accounting/custody.
So maybe something like this to label it,
INDIVIDUAL ASSET OR RECEIVABLE → AGGREGATION / POOLING → OMNIBUS OR CONSOLIDATED ACCOUNTING → NET/BULK SETTLEMENT → SUBSIDIARY-LEDGER RECONCILIATION
A particularly useful accounting term is subledger-to-general-ledger consolidation: the granular records remain below while the general ledger carries aggregated balances.
“pooled asset / omnibus accounting architecture.” It seems to describe the established mechanism without prematurely asserting what the originating asset is in the birth/PERSON hypothesis.
vessel/ship onto the books (birth certificate) and off the books (death certificate)
MAN / VESSEL BORN → physical living vessel exists.
BIRTH EVENT RECORDED → birth is registered with the state; an official source record is created.
LEGAL IDENTITY CREATED/APPLIED → NAME / registered identity becomes attached to that birth record.
SHIP ENTERS THE STATUTORY SYSTEM → in our assertion, the VESSEL is now joined administratively to the statutory PERSON.
PERSON ESTABLISHED ON THE BOOKS → identifiers and subsidiary records can accumulate around that PERSON: vital statistics, SIN, taxation, benefits, employment, banking, insurance, etc.
INDIVIDUAL SHIP REMAINS IDENTIFIABLE → even though later accounting may aggregate things, the underlying PERSON/record remains individually addressable. This is analogous to an individually identifiable mortgage remaining identifiable inside a mortgage pool.
ECONOMIC ACTIVITY BEGINS → employment, taxation, borrowing, benefits, insurance, consumption and other relationships produce measurable transactions associated with the PERSON.
THE MISSING CONVERSION POINT → PERSON / SHIP → ? → recognized asset, receivable, claim, expected cash flow, beneficial interest or other bookable value. This remains the unproved step in our model.
INDIVIDUAL SUBLEDGER POSITION → assuming that conversion exists, the system can retain the granular value/obligation associated with the individual ship without carrying the individual's identity at every higher accounting level.
BATCHING → large numbers of individual entries are processed together.
POOLING / AGGREGATION → batches become larger accounting pools or classes.
OMNIBUS / CONSOLIDATED POSITION → the higher ledger can show an aggregate amount while the subsidiary records preserve the underlying individual attribution.
REAL CASH FLOWS OCCUR → taxes, contributions, payments, interest, premiums, fees, benefits, transfers, etc. flow through the ordinary financial system.
NETTING / SETTLEMENT → enormous numbers of transactions can be reduced to net institutional positions and settled in bulk.
INDIVIDUAL SHIP CAN STILL CHANGE STATUS → pooling has not destroyed its underlying identity. It could theoretically become inactive, defaulted, abandoned, lost, “wrecked,” deceased, or otherwise terminated depending upon what operative rule we eventually identify.
“WRECK” / TERMINATION EVENT → in our experiment, death is an obvious event to investigate, but we have not established that Canadian law actually treats death of a person as wreckage of a statutory ship.
FINAL INDIVIDUAL ACCOUNTING → outstanding taxes, debts, benefits, insurance, pensions, property and other claims are determined/reconciled.
ESTATE / SUCCESSOR PROCESS → assets and liabilities associated with the deceased individual are administered, transferred, discharged or otherwise settled under the applicable actual legal mechanisms.
SUBLEDGER CLOSED / STATUS CHANGED → the individual no longer generates the same ongoing transactions, although historical records obviously remain.
SHIP “OFF THE BOOKS” → in the terminology of our asserted model, the active individual ship has ceased being an ongoing economic/accounting unit, while its historical record and any surviving rights/obligations can remain on the books.
Thomas Paine — Common Sense
Introduction
PERHAPS the sentiments contained in the following pages are not yet sufficiently fashionable to procure them general favor; a long habit of not thinking a thing wrong, gives it a superficial appearance of being right, and raises at first a formidable outcry in defence of custom. But the tumult soon subsides. Time makes more converts than reason.
As a long and violent abuse of power, is generally the Means of calling the right of it in question (and in matters too which might never have been thought of, had not the Sufferers been aggravated into the inquiry) and as the King of England had undertaken in his own Right, to support the Parliament in what he calls Theirs, and as the good people of this country are grievously oppressed by the combination, they have an undoubted privilege to inquire into the pretensions of both, and equally to reject the usurpation of either.
In the following sheets, the author hath studiously avoided every thing which is personal among ourselves. Compliments as well as censure to individuals make no part thereof. The wise, and the worthy, need not the triumph of a pamphlet; and those whose sentiments are injudicious, or unfriendly, will cease of themselves unless too much pains are bestowed upon their conversion.
The cause of America is in a great measure the cause of all mankind. Many circumstances hath, and will arise, which are not local, but universal, and through which the principles of all Lovers of Mankind are affected, and in the Event of which, their Affections are interested. The laying a Country desolate with Fire and Sword,* declaring War against the natural rights of all Mankind, and extirpating the Defenders thereof from the Face of the Earth, is the Concern of every Man to whom Nature hath given the Power of feeling; of which Class, regardless of Party Censure, is the AUTHOR.
Thomas Paine — The American Crisis
I
THESE are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sun-shine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it now, deserves the thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly: ’tis dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to set a proper price upon its goods, and it would be strange, indeed, if so celestial an article as freedom should not be highly rated. Britain, with an army to enforce her tyranny, has declared that she has a right, not only to tax, but “to bind us in all cases whatsoever:”* and if being bound in that manner is not slavery, then is there not such a thing as slavery upon earth. Even the expression is impious: for so unlimited a power can belong only to God.
Whether the independence of the Continent was declared too soon, or delayed too long, I will not now enter into as an argument: my own simple opinion is, that had it been eight months earlier, it would have been much better. We did not make a proper use of last winter; neither could we, while we were in a dependent situation. However, the fault, if it were one, was all our own: we have none to blame but ourselves.¹ But no great deal is lost yet: all that Howe has been doing for this month past, is rather a ravage than a conquest, which the spirit of the Jerseys a year ago, would have quickly repulsed, and which time and a little resolution will soon recover.*
I have as little superstition in me as any man living; but
So to summarise, "Canadians" are Crown owned ships. The Bill of rights and the Charter are illusory documents that give judges the discretionary powers to reinforce the illusion even though it should be clear you have no rights by now! LOL
Matrix Solutions Network
Interesting videos particularly the ones on The Law of Nations
https://www.youtube.com/@Therightofselfdetermination
If you want to read 250 pages of the 800 plus that can really help understand international law
https://about.libertyfund.org/books/the-law-of-nations/
here is the 25 percent LOL
BOOK I — Of Nations Considered in Themselves — highest priority
Preliminaries — §§1–24
Read the whole thing. This establishes the vocabulary underlying everything else: nation, state, sovereign, sovereignty, natural law, voluntary law of nations, necessary law, conventional law and customary law.
Chapter I — Of Nations or Sovereign States — §§1–10
Essential. What a nation is; political society; sovereignty; independence; equality of nations.
Chapter II — General Principles of the Duties of a Nation Towards Itself — §§11–21
Essential natural-law foundation: preservation, perfection, knowledge of itself, duties of the body politic.
Chapter III — Of the Constitution of a State, and the Duties and Rights of the Nation in This Respect — §§26–37
Extremely important. Constitution, public authority, legislative power and the nation's authority concerning its own constitutional arrangement.
Chapter IV — Of the Sovereign, His Obligations and His Rights — §§38–49
Extremely important. Separates the nation from the sovereign/government exercising authority for it.
Chapter V — States Elective, Successive or Hereditary — §§50 onward
Read selectively. Particularly useful for understanding Crown, succession, sovereign capacity and the distinction between the office and its holder.
Chapter VI — Principal Objects of a Good Government
Read. Useful because Vattel starts defining what legitimate governmental power is actually for.
Chapters VII–VIII — Cultivation of the Soil / Commerce
Lower priority. Skim unless something intersects our land/property investigation.
Chapter IX — Care of Public Ways of Communication
Skim initially.
Chapter X — Money and Exchange
Read. Given our parallel investigation of monetary systems, public finance and commercial/legal structures, this is worth knowing.
Chapter XI — Second Object of Good Government: Procuring the True Happiness of the Nation
Read. Important natural-law framework concerning government and the people.
Chapter XII — Piety and Religion
Selective, but don't ignore it. Useful for understanding Vattel's relationship between natural law, God, conscience and civil authority.
Chapter XIII — Justice and Polity
Read carefully. Courts, justice, administration and governmental responsibility.
Chapter XIV — Third Object of Good Government: Fortifying Itself Against External Attacks
Skim for now.
Chapter XV — Glory of a Nation
Low priority.
Chapter XVI — Protection Sought by a Nation and Its Voluntary Submission to a Foreign Power
Read carefully. Very relevant to sovereignty, submission, protection and what happens to political independence.
Chapter XVII — How a Nation May Separate Itself from the State of Which It Is a Member
Read carefully. Very relevant to political membership and constitutional change.
Chapter XVIII — Establishment of a Nation in a Country
Essential. Territory, occupation, possession and establishment.
Chapter XIX — Our Native Country, and Several Things That Relate to It
Absolutely essential for us. This is where you want a pile of tabs.
Watch particularly for:
COUNTRY → CITIZEN → NATIVE → INHABITANT → FOREIGNER → DOMICILE → MEMBERSHIP → ALLEGIANCE / OBLIGATION
This chapter gives us an eighteenth-century baseline against which we can later compare PERSON, NATURAL PERSON, INDIVIDUAL, CANADIAN CITIZEN, etc.
Chapter XX — Public, Common and Private Property
Essential. This belongs directly beside our Crown/land/domain investigation.
Chapter XXI — Alienation of Public Property or Domain
Essential. Particularly useful for distinguishing sovereignty over territory from ownership of property.
Chapter XXII — Rivers, Streams and Lakes
Very high priority for us.
Given everything we've been doing with CANADA → INTERNAL WATERS → territorial sea → landward baselines, I'd read this word-for-word.
Chapter XXIII — Sea
Very high priority.
Read immediately after XXII. This gives you Vattel's historical natural/international-law framework for sea, territorial authority, maritime domain and navigation.
BOOK II — Of a Nation Considered in Its Relation to Others
You have already been spending time here. These are the sections I'd make sure you really know.
Chapter I — Common Duties of a Nation Towards Others
Essential foundation.
Chapter II — Mutual Commerce Between Nations
Read carefully because of our commerce/jurisdiction investigation.
Chapter III — Dignity and Equality of Nations
Essential sovereignty material.
Chapter IV — Right to Security
Read.
Chapter V — Observance of Justice Between Nations
Read.
Chapter VI — Concern a Nation May Have in the Actions of Its Citizens
Very important.
This is particularly useful because it forces the distinction:
NATION ↔ CITIZEN ↔ conduct of citizen ↔ responsibility of nation
rather than treating those concepts as interchangeable.
Chapter VII — Effects of the Domain Between Nations
Essential.
This belongs beside Book I XVIII–XXIII.
Chapter VIII — Rules Respecting Foreigners
Essential.
Especially useful for determining what Vattel understood by citizen, foreigner, inhabitant, jurisdiction and territorial authority.
Chapter IX — Rights Retained by Citizens After Leaving Their Country
Essential for our investigation.
This helps expose what Vattel regarded as attaching to the man/citizen versus what depended upon residence or territorial jurisdiction.
Chapter X — How a Nation Is to Use Its Right of Domain
Read carefully.
Chapter XI — Usucaption and Prescription Between Nations
Read because possession, title and passage of time become important.
Chapters XII–XVI — Treaties and Public Conventions
Essential as a block.
For our Canadian historical work, these matter enormously:
TREATY → PARTIES → AUTHORITY → CONSENT → OBLIGATION → PERFORMANCE → BREACH → TERMINATION
This provides a framework for eventually examining the Deed of Surrender, numbered treaties, constitutional instruments, British/French territorial arrangements, etc.
Chapter XVII — Interpretation of Treaties
One of the most important chapters in the entire book for us.
Read it extremely carefully.
This is where I'd compare Vattel's interpretive machinery against what we've been doing with:
MEANS
INCLUDES
DEEMED
PRESUMED
AS IF
BELONGS TO
POSSESSION
CONSENT
The value isn't that Vattel automatically determines the meaning of a modern Canadian statute. He gives us an earlier systematic theory of how legal words and agreements are interpreted.
Chapter XVIII — Settlement of Disputes Between Nations
Read.
BOOK III — Of War
Don't dismiss this as merely military material. For our historical investigation, several parts matter enormously.
Chapters I–III — War, authority to make war, just causes
Read.
The central question is:
WHO acts? → under WHAT authority? → on behalf of WHOM?
That distinction matters greatly when reading old Crown instruments.
Chapters XII–XIII — Property / acquisition during war
Very important.
This gets us into the legal consequences of capture and acquisition.
Chapters XIII–XIV — conquest / conquered country / property
Essential for the Canadian historical side.
This gives us the conceptual vocabulary necessary to distinguish:
DISCOVERY
≠ OCCUPATION
≠ POSSESSION
≠ CONQUEST
≠ CESSION
≠ SOVEREIGNTY
≠ PROPERTY
That distinction will become extremely useful when we return to Rupert's Land and Crown territorial instruments.
BOOK IV — Restoration of Peace; Embassies
Lower overall priority, but several portions matter.
Chapters I–III — Peace and obligation to make peace
Read.
Peace treaties and their effects
Important.
This completes the sequence:
WAR → CONQUEST/CAPTURE → PEACE → TREATY → CESSION/RESTORATION → resulting sovereignty/title
Diplomatic representation / ambassadors
Skim initially. Come back if our Crown/international-personality investigation reaches it.
If you want an even shorter list (page estimate 100-140pages)
Preliminaries — Vattel’s core definitions: nation, state, sovereignty, natural law and the different forms of the law of nations.
Book I, Chapter III — “Of the Constitution of a State, and the Duties and Rights of the Nation in This Respect” — constitution, governmental authority, legislative power, and the relationship between the nation and its governmental structure.
Book I, Chapter XIX — “Of Our Native Country, and Several Things That Relate to It” — particularly important for us: country, citizen, native, inhabitant, membership, domicile, emigration and related distinctions.
Book I, Chapters XX–XXIII — read these as one block:
XX — Public, Common and Private Property
XXI — Alienation of Public Property or Domain
XXII — Rivers, Streams and Lakes
XXIII — The Sea
This is the important PROPERTY → DOMAIN → LAND → WATER → SEA block.
Book II, Chapter XVII — “Of the Interpretation of Treaties” — especially valuable for our work on words, intention, interpretation, ambiguity, context and legal instruments.
That's the ~12–17% reading program LOL Do it!.
[RSBC 1996] CHAPTER 20
"land"includes
(a)land covered by water,
(b)quarries, and
(c)sand and gravel,
but does not include coal or other minerals;
(Where is the soil?) Oh wait! there it is over in the BC Community Charter Act LOL!!!
BC COMMUNITY CHARTER � Continued [SBC 2003] CHAPTER 26 - definitions soil and land -
"soil" includes sand, gravel, rock and other substances of which land (land covered by water) is composed;
"land" (land covered by water) is (a) for the purposes of assessment and taxation, means land (land covered by water) as defined in the BC Assessment Act
******Here we see above land is defined as "land covered by water" ******
"improvements" means any building, fixture, structure or similar thing constructed or placed on or in land (land covered by water ), or water over land, or on or in another improvement, but does not include any of the following things unless that thing is a building or is deemed to be included in this definition by subsection (2):

(c)furniture and equipment that is not affixed for any purpose other than its own stability and that is easily moved by hand;
Land has been defined as water, we somehow have buildings on water in this "let's pretend realm" of Admiralty
while the BC Assessment Act says:
IMPROVEMENTS
→ things constructed/placed ON OR IN LAND (land covered by water), OR WATER OVER LAND
and s.1(2) then DEEMS additional specified things into IMPROVEMENTS.
Again on land? It has already been defined as water over land!

a person (corporate person) who is entitled under a licence or lease to possess or occupy, or who simply occupies(only a corporate person fiction can occupy in the waterLOL), the land (land covered by water), the water covering the land or the surface of the water covering the land; This is a, let's pretend game! FFS and we keep sleeping!!!! Dreaming!!!
That staute/Act above at the start is the BC Assessment Act, you can see it defines Land as- Land covered by water. Canada is a nation of citizebn -ships under Crown control. We are asleep and totally enslaved,
