Moving beyond his Death to the Resurrection of JFK’s World Peace Plan

By Paul Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Gould      OpEdNews     vtforeignpolicy.com

In 1991 we started tracing our Fitzgerald family history back 1000 years to the end of the Desmond Fitzgerald rule in Ireland when they were defeated by the forces of Elizabeth I. History has marked the beginning of the British Empire with the end of the Desmond Wars following the beheading of the last Earl of Desmond in 1583. We identified the long history we were tracking as “Mystical Imperialism,” a philosophy that rationalized the expansion of empire by infusing a sense of the divine into the raw politics of empire building.We will present our “Mystical Imperialism” research as powerful and invisible influences behind the framing of the assassination of JFK at the Dallas Convention this November 17, 2023. Conference and ZOOM link info can be accessed HERE.

In 2021 we started leading monthly TrineDay Publisher’s roundtable discussions to investigate how to resurrect JFK’s American University Speech as the basis of world peace. In the past six months we also came to grasp the  economics of Henry George that are in line with the perennial wisdom teachings of economic justice needed before we can build JFK’s Peace for All Time. We presented the creation of the Fitzgerald mythology surrounding JFK’s life at RoundTable 6, Resurrect JFK and The USA . It can be viewed HERE.

Recently we’ve found historical records on JFK’s beloved grandfather and mentor, Boston Mayor John Francis Fitzgerald. Known as “Honey Fitz,” he predicted JFK would become president and tutored him until his death in 1950. It turns out that “Honey Fitz” was an ardent proponent of Henry George’s land value taxation. This find was an important discovery that gave new meaning, not only to the historical story we were building but to the mystical purpose of the Fitzgerald legacy. It was as if we had been touched by an angel encouraging us to keep building, no matter what the odds, the economic justice platform needed for JFK’s peace plan to unfold.

The time is ripe to bring forward an economics that is outside of the “right/left” box and will bring masses of people into a unity of intention and purpose to solve America’s major social problems. Our job is to get this message for solving our human made problems out to the American people. Making that happen will set the stage to fulfill the true meaning of JFK’s sacrifice for all of us.

We hope you can help us with our task. A good place to begin is to read the documents we provided below. Each one offers a different perspective on our work to consider. Once you have a chance to review these materials, please pass this package of information on to your friends.

In their memoir, “Valediction: Three Nights of Desmond Part 1” co-authors Paul Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Gould reported on the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, and how all was not what it seemed at that time. Clues about the next installment were planted. “Valediction: Resurrection Part 2” probes the lineage between Paul Fitzgerald and JFK’s family. The research into Fitzgerald forebears yields clues to a powerful empire that was conspired against and overthrown. Surviving bloodlines are targeted, such as JFK’s November 22, 1963 assassination. While delving into his past, Paul sees the connection to his experiences in Afghanistan. Seemingly disparate subjects are linked to sinister forces in history, manipulating unwitting believers. How does the CIA’s Soviet threat analysis known as “Team B” connect to the Arthurian legends? Do we march forward into the future through random events? Or has a course been charted, going back centuries? “Valediction: Resurrection” is a unique book that awakens new insights. The past is never easy to reconcile, and in Paul Fitzgerald’s case, he went back a 1000 years to do so. The author’s quest for knowledge and truth is filled with intriguing stops along the way. It’s a book with the qualities of a blockbuster film that will appeal to history lovers, conspiracy researchers, genealogists, and mystery fans.

A Long Mystical Tale That Leads to JFK’s Vision of World Peace

A FREE Zoom Event  Wed. October 25, 2023    3:00 – 4:30 pm Eastern  RSVP  HERE.  (Valediction.net/eventlist)

In 1991, Paul Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Gould started tracing their Fitzgerald family history back 1,000 years to the end of the Fitzgerald rule in Ireland, when they were defeated by the forces of Elizabeth I. That history, which Paul and Liz identified as Mystical Imperialism, led to JFK’s assassination on November 22, 1963.

RSVP to see a preview on Oct. 25 of the Mystical Imperialism history Paul and Liz will present at THE JFK ASSASSINATION, 60 YEARS LATER Conference in Dallas this Nov. 17; (tickets and Zoom-access are available at jfkhistorical.com).

These Roundtables were inspired by Paul and Liz’s desire to resurrect JFK’s vision for peace in his American University Speech. Alanna Hartzok introduced us to the economics of Henry George, one of the late 19^th Century’s most popular speakers. JFK was greatly influenced by his grandfather, Boston Mayor John “Honey Fitz” Fitzgerald – WHO ALSO CHAMPIONED THE ECONOMICS OF HENRY GEORGE. This is one of the great synchronicities of Paul and Liz’s journey. Henry George’s economic justice can create the peace the world needs.

Alanna Hartzok will present an update on the UN Equinox 2024 Earth Day Event honoring the original vision of John McConnell, the founder and creator of Earth Day.

A FREE Zoom Event  Wed. September 27, 2023 3:00 – 4:30 pm EST RSVP HERE

With TrineDay Publisher R. A. “Kris” Millegan, Earth Rights visionary Alanna Hartzok, co-authors Paul Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Gould and moderated by Bruce de Torres

We are pleased to invite you to TrineDay’s Roundtable 23 on September 27, 2023, to discuss the upcoming March Equinox Celebration, a day for honoring the Earth and highlighting the economics for peace principles and policies originally envisioned in 1968 by John McConnell, the founder and creator of Earth Day. This event has been celebrated annually at the United Nations since 1971.

People will join together at the UN and around the world to acknowledge the exact moment of the March Equinox (3/19/24, 11:06 pm EST) when the ceremonial ringing of the UN Peace Bell takes place honoring world peace and earth rights justice.The Equinox is the time of year when the planet is in equipoise of equal day and night representing worldwide balance and harmony.

John McConnell was an idealist, a visionary and a peacemaker, who coined the term Earth Day. He proposed its celebration be on the March equinox to the City of San Francisco in October 1969 and announced it in November at a UNESCO Conference. San Francisco hosted the first Earth Day on March 21, 1970. Since then, the Earth Society Foundation, which McConnell co-founded with Margaret Mead, has hosted the annual event where the UN Peace Bell is rung followed by prayer, music and meditation.The theme for the March 2024 Earth Day celebration is The Earth Belongs to Everyone: Building a Culture and Economics of Peace. This focus draws upon McConnell’s thoughts, work and writings about EARTH RIGHTS.

The Henry George Institute welcomed McConnell’s message at a May 1996 seminar stating that “Mr. McConnell has long shared Henry George’s vision of the Earth as the common heritage of all people and he advocates the public collection of land rent as a way to actualize this all-important relationship.” The seminar honored McConnell’s co-authorship, with UN NGO Representative Alanna Hartzok, of a paper titled PENNSYLVANIA’S SUCCESS WITH LOCAL TAX REFORM that described the success this “earth rights” tax reform has had in Hartzok’s home state of Pennsylvania and can be found HERE .

Dear Friends,

We are pleased to invite you to the upcoming March Equinox Celebration, a day for honoring the Earth and highlighting the economics for peace principles and policies originally envisioned in 1968 by John McConnell, the founder and creator of Earth Day. This event has been celebrated annually at the United Nations since 1971.

People will join together at the UN and around the world to acknowledge the exact moment of the March Equinox (3/19/24, 11:06 pm EST) when the ceremonial ringing of the UN Peace Bell takes place honoring world peace and earth rights justice. The Equinox is the time of year when the planet is in equipoise of equal day and night representing worldwide balance and harmony.

John McConnell was an idealist, a visionary and a peacemaker, who coined the term Earth Day. He proposed its celebration be on the March equinox to the City of San Francisco in October, 1969 and announced it in November at a UNESCO Conference. San Francisco hosted the first Earth Day on March 21, 1970.

Since then the Earth Society Foundation, which McConnell co-founded with Margaret Mead, has hosted the annual event where the UN Peace Bell is rung followed by prayer, music and meditation. Margaret Mead, UN Secretary-General U Thant, President Ford, and thirty-three Nobel laureates supported Earth Day. In addition thirty-six worldwide dignitaries signed McConnell’s Earth Day Proclamation, supporting Earth Day on the March Equinox as an annual planetary holiday linking people everywhere without regard to politics, culture, national borders or religion.

The theme for the March 2024 Earth Day celebration is The Earth Belongs to Everyone: Building a Culture and Economics of Peace. This focus draws upon McConnell’s thoughts, work and writings about EARTH RIGHTS.  In 1968 McConnell wrote his “Planetary Inheritance Declaration” concerning the “rights and responsibilities of all people with respect to Earth’s land, sea, minerals, oil and other natural resources”. He urged the UN to establish a “Natural Resources Royalties Pool” that would collect money from any individual, corporation or country that might take an excess of their rightful portion, then distribute those funds to all of Earth’s people which would help to eliminate many economic sources of discord that lead to war.

The Henry George Institute welcomed McConnell’s message at a May 1996 seminar stating that “Mr. McConnell has long shared Henry George’s vision of the Earth as the common heritage of all people and he advocates the public collection of land rent as a way to actualize this all-important relationship.” The seminar honored McConnell’s co-authorship, with UN NGO Representative Alanna Hartzok of a paper titled Pennsylvania’s Success with Local  Tax Reform  that described the success this “earth rights” tax reform has had in Hartzok’s home state of Pennsylvania.

If you are not able to be at the UN celebration; please consider setting up an event in your neighborhood that works for you. What follows this letter is the registration form that we hope you will fill out to let us know of your interest to endorse our project and/or plan an event to acknowledge the UN’s 2024 Equinox Earth Day celebration. Once complete send it back to the address at the end of the form. Additional support materials follow the registration form.

If we can be of further assistance please let us know.

Kindest regards, Paul Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Gould

The UN Center for Human Settlements – HABITAT – is an advocate for EARTH RIGHTS tax policies as stated in Action Plans adopted by consensus of all UN Member States. The Vancouver Action Plan section D.1 (a)s is one example that says: “Excessive profits resulting from the increase in land value due to development and change in use are one of the principal causes of the concentration of wealth in private hands. Taxation should not be seen only as a source of revenue for the community but also a powerful tool to encourage development of desirable locations, to exercise a controlling effect on the land market and to redistribute to the public at large the benefits of the unearned increase in land values.”

AN INTERNATIONAL DECLARATION ON INDIVIDUAL & COMMON RIGHTS TO EARTH (Originally composed and declared at a meeting of the International Union for Land Value Taxation held in 1949)

We hereby declare that the earth is the common heritage of all and that all people have natural and equal rights to the land of the planet. By the term “land” is meant all natural resources. Subject always to these natural and equal rights in land and to this common ownership, individuals can and should enjoy certain subsidiary rights in land. These rights properly enjoyed by individuals are:

1. The right to secure exclusive occupation of land
   2. The right to exclusive use of land occupied.
   3. The right to the free transfer of land according to the laws of the country.
   4. The right to transmit land by inheritance.

These individual rights do not include:

1. The right to use land in a manner contrary to the common good of all, e.g., in such a manner as to destroy or impair the common heritage.
   2. The right to appropriate what economists call the Economic Rent of land.

The Economic Rent is the annual value attaching to the land alone apart from any improvements thereon created by labor. This value is created by the existence of and the functioning of the whole community wherein the individual lives and is in justice the property of the community. To allow this value to be appropriated by individuals enables land to be used not only for the production of wealth but as an instrument of oppression of human by human leading to severe social consequences which are everywhere evident.

All humans have natural and equal rights in land. Those rights may be exercised in two ways:

1. By holding land as individuals and/or
   2. Sharing in the common use of the Economic Rent of land.

The Economic Rent of land can be collected for the use of the community by methods similar to those by which real estate taxes are now collected. That is what is meant by the policy of Land Value Taxation. Were this community created land value collected, the many taxes which impede the production of wealth and limit purchasing power could be abolished.

The exercise of both common and individual rights in land is essential to a society based on justice. But the rights of individuals in natural resources are limited by the just rights of the community. Denying the existence of common rights in land creates a condition of society wherein the exercise of individual rights becomes impossible for the great mass of the people.

We therefore declare that the earth is the birthright of all people.

QUOTES FROM EQUINOX EARTH DAY FOUNDER JOHN MCCONNELL

“We need to find ideas that can generate the greatest cooperation for the greatest good on our planet, that’s what I tried to do with Earth Day, the Earth Trustee Agenda, Minute for Peace and the Earth Magna Charta.”

“Environmental efforts by themselves will leave us in ruins unless we stop war, unless we promote peace, and unless we have more economic justice.”

“Among the equal rights of men is the right to an equal share in nature’s bounty a right of each man to his planetary inheritance – his share of land, water, minerals or an appropriate equivalent in food, housing, or other benefits…. No one can, by any compact, deprive or divest their posterity, or any other man’s posterity, of the right to his portion of Earth.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A FREE Zoom Event Wed. August 30, 2023    3:00 – 4:30 pm/ET  RSVP at Valediction.net

With Publisher R. A. “Kris” Millegan, Earth Rights visionary Alanna Hartzok, and co-authors Paul Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Gould, who say:

“Our original idea was to create a world peace movement based on JFK’s American University Peace Speech. Along the way we discovered that world peace required a transition from an Economy of War to Peace. When we learned about the economics of 19^th Century American, Henry George we realized the best way to build peace was based on a foundation of George’s perennial wisdom teachings of economic justice.

“Now here’s the amazing part. This started for us in 1992, when our daughter got a dream message from Paul’s deceased father to look into the Fitzgerald history going back to the 1169 Norman invasion of Ireland. Out of the blue Georgist researcher Edward Dodson* recently sent us a 1911 news story from the weekly magazine THE PUBLIC, published from 1898-1919. It reported that JFK’s grandfather, Boston’s Mayor John Fitzgerald, was promoting public finance solutions based on Henry George’s economic justice. George’s masterwork, PROGRESS AND POVERTY, launched major movements in several countries by the end of the 19th century.”

Describing the perennial wisdom made manifest through Georgist economics, Alanna Hartzok has written: “…all gifts of nature should be fairly shared and not subject to private profiteering. The solution is a public finance policy that removes tax burdens from labor and production and shifts it to the unearned income from land and natural resources. Even when partially implemented this approach shows that we can build an economy that is both fair, free, and decentralized. Neoliberal economics was created by elites who paid universities to teach two-factor economics, only labor and capital, and made land (the earth itself) a subset of capital. The intention of this intellectual crime was to obfuscate the perennial wisdom teachings on economic justice.”

Elizabeth summarized what’s next. “This was the alpha and omega moment we’d been waiting for. The exciting energy of the Fitzgerald Legacy that JFK brought to his presidency had been enlivened again in our reality. Our job is to encourage all presidential candidates to include Mayor Fitzgerald’s Georgist solutions in their platforms. As this message spreads across the country, it will bring Americans together from all sides of the political spectrum, just as President Kennedy was doing with his vision for world peace.”
