[P2P-F] Global Marshall Plan and the Global Commons Rising: Who will be hacking who towards, at, around and beyond Montreal (or beyond the WSF in general)

The below Wikipedia items are explaining what the hack is Global Marshall Plan initiative and Global Marshall Plan operation -initiated by interesting names, including those we were told being radical-progressives:

"The idea of a “Global Marshall Plan” was first published in 1990 by U.S. politician, entrepreneur and environmentalist Al Gore in his book “Earth in the Balance: Ecology and the Human Spirit”. The choice of name deliberately recalls the historical Marshall Plan after the Second World War (officially: European Recovery Program), a symbol for hope, solidarity and peace.
The idea of a Global Marshall Plan was not new but had already been endorsed in the 1990s by personalities from a variety of sectors: Kofi Annan, Al Gore, Hans Küng, Susan George, Mikhail Gorbachov, His Royal Highness Prince El Hassan bin Talal of Jordan, George Soros, Lutz Wicke, Georg Winter and many others (Global Contract). As early as the beginning of the 1990s an ecological Marshall Plan was established by prominent personalities such as journalist Franz Alt and German Green politician Joscka Fisher. Along with many other supporters, they called for the establishment of an eco-social market economy, 100 billion DM put towards the environment every year and a Kerosin tax."

And 

The Global Marshall Plan is a plan first devised by former American Vice-President Al Gore in his bestselling book Earth in the Balance, which gives specific ideas on how to save the global environment.
Gore states: "The model of the Marshall Plan can be of great help. For example, a Global Marshall Plan must focus on strategic goals and emphasize actions and programs that are likely to remove the bottlenecks presently inhibiting the healthy functioning of the global economy. The new global economy must be an inclusive system that does not leave entire regions behind. The new plan will require the wealthy nations to allocate money for transferring environmentally helpful technologies to the Third World and to help impoverished nations achieve a stable population and a new pattern of sustainable economic progress. To work, however, any such effort will also require wealthy nations to make a transition themselves that will be in some ways more wrenching than that of the Third World."

Global Marshall Plan: Five strategic goals "In my view, five strategic goals must direct and inform our efforts to save the global environment":

stabilizing of world population
the rapid development of environmentally appropriate technologies
a comprehensive change in the economic "rules of the road" by which we measure the impact of our decisions on the environment
negotiation & approval of a new generation of international agreements
a cooperative plan for educating the world's citizens about our global environment.
The idea is based on the post-WWII Marshall Plan that saw the United States send billions of dollars to European nations to rebuild their war shattered economies.

In order to further the idea of a GMP and to coordinate the various initiatives, NGOs, scientists, activists and groups in the field of development cooperation and global social justice the Global Marshall Plan Initiative was founded by members of the Club of Rome, the Club of Budapest, the Eco-Social Forum Europe, ATTAC and other organisations in Frankfurt, Germany in 2003. The two main objectives are to find new ways and sources of financing in development cooperation, predominantly pursuing the Millennium Development Goals of the UN and the worldwide propagation of the eco-social market economy, which is considered to be one of today's key strategies of initiative. The *Green Marshall Plan* is a policy initiative developed by Canadian greens Constantine Kritsonis and Craig Hubley. It offers a basis for global central banks to *bail out the planet* by creating new money to pay for green infrastructure.

"Global Commons Global Discourse on the Rise

From blogs to international conferences, Global Commons gains momentum 

Beyond the initiative of the Global Marshall Plan Foundation for a Coalition for the Global Commons (the CGC coordination group and discussion can be found here), champions of the Global Commons are going public and spreading awareness for this new global perspective.

Silke Helfrich and Jörg Haas have started a "Commons Blog" on Wordpress, an Open Source Software that embodies the practicality of the Global Commons concept. In it there is information on the commons, on-going discourse, literature and stories on the commons meant to provoke thought and hopefully prompt action.

In the latest posts on the Commons Blog, one of the Coalition for the Global Commons’ partners, Chico Whitaker, founder of the World Social Forum (WSF), was mentioned in a report on his speech to the latest WSF international conference. For the remainder of the conference the commons discussion was concentrated and passionate and to be labelled “a discourse on vision, around which the political discourse is reorganized ”. The immediate result was the creation of “Commons Sites” available in the four official languages of the WSF (Portuguese, Spanish, English, French), and meant to make the Commons a more tangible theme, while also giving a platform for various projects and initiatives dealing with commons issues. (The full posting, in German, can be found here.)

In October, we had the privilege of receiving Chico at a meeting for the Coalition for the Global Commons in Hude, where participants (for the most part leaders of international organizations) came together to find better means of collaborating on a large network basis. During the intense three days of small meetings, Mr. Whitaker made a pledge regarding his personal commitment to the Global Commons, one of which was to further promote the concept at the World Social Forum. Indeed he kept true to his word.

To the WSF Manifesto pela recuperação dos bens comuns da humanidade (manifesto for the recuperation fo the common goods of humanity)."

I am not thinking of the next system, not Morozov's critics of solutionism, not platform cooperativism,... Right now I am just thinking of the movie Snow Piercing... Especially the final scene; when our guy finally reached at the locomotive and found the responsible enemy head! Just before smashing him, the enemy reveals the truth saying that there always be direct line between the back of the wagon (being where the spiritual leader of insurrection reside) and the locomotive, in order to balance the life and ecosystem in the train, and avoid the 'train crash'. In this movie train is a closed system; there are no fractions, one counter part at the end of the train and at the locomotive. Real world is different.. 

In my opinion, looking at the information networks of the f..ing GMP, it makes much more sense why the support for national capital, and extreme right, fascism and authoritarianism backed by it increases since the 80s and 90s; and we reached at the peak of facism and approached at another world war; in the name of avoiding the train crash (as Susan George used to say); also I know got why the racist and 'paranoiac' arguments that claim that left and 'liberal' progressives are the same thing with the mystified NWO. 

Anyway, doesn't matter anymore; but who ever served to these goals and stranded together with the ruling class' agendas, should know that they have very much of a blood in their hand. No matter their intention was, who well they thought their action and alliance with the evil, one or other side of the global fractions of pathological capitalist classes has triggered more and more violence since 2000s. 

It is time to stand up on own feet and unite against the ruling class as a whole (or  asshahole)!

Remember that force may or may not be with you, but doesn't matter! It can not go worse then this...

Today it is about living or not living.
