China Policy
The growing importance of China as a future global superpower cannot be underestimated. While we recognize the importance of cautiously strengthening economic and political ties with China, we also recognize the possibility that China might also pose some very real security threats to its neighboring countries, and to our nation in the near future. Our relationship with China has been in many ways very one-sided and self-defeating. We have a trade imbalance with China that has favored their economy over ours. We have exported jobs to China that should be occupied exclusively by American workers. We have allowed crucial technologies to be stolen by China. We have also purposefully ignored China’s horrendous human rights record in the Dharma Nation of Tibet in favor of continued economic ties. Our nation needs to have a new China policy that much more aggressively upholds the interests of the West, that corrects the current trade imbalance with China, that upholds the sovereignty of the Tibetan people, and that more forcefully encourages China to hasten their process of de-Communization.
India Policy
India represents an ancient and profound cultural and religious heritage that has helped shape the advance of many other civilizations far outside its borders throughout world history. India has traditionally been a nation that has not been an aggressor against her neighbors. She has been a democracy since achieving independence, and is currently on the road to becoming a major economic, military and political superpower in Asia. It is imperative that America and India continue to develop their relationship and to deepen their ever-increasing ties to one another. We envision India and America becoming very close allies in the near future.
Pakistan Policy
Pakistan is an artificial and failed nation-state. Unnaturally created in 1948 on the sole basis of the majority of its people’s shared adherence to the Islamic religion, Pakistan represents the forced incorporation of five separate and distinct ethnic groups into one super-state structure. From the moment of its inception to the present moment, Pakistan has not been able to function or prosper as a nation. For the duration of its existence, Pakistan has experienced only failure both socially and economically; in its internal cohesion, infrastructure, political culture, and nation-building attempts; in its foreign policy; and in its consistent support of jihadist terrorism throughout the world. Focusing on the latter: Pakistan has been directly responsible for the creation of the Taliban in Afghanistan, the terrorist insurgency in the state of Kashmir in neighboring India, as well as internal terror against religious and political minorities within its own borders. Pakistan is thus a rouge terror state.
Originally constituting the western provinces of India, Pakistan’s artificial establishment came about on August 14, 1947 as an Islamic bulwark against what the British feared would be an eventually powerful and prosperous Hindu India that could one day possibly rival its own colonial interests. Prior to 1947, there was never any historical political entity known as “Pakistan” (indeed, the very term “Pakistan” itself was coined from an acronym of Punjab, Afghania, Kashmir, Sindh, and Baluchistan). Over the last 65 years, Pakistan has instigated three major wars and one minor war against its peaceful neighbor, India. Pakistan is a country that has been riddled since its manufacture with an unsettling history of perennial dictatorships, martial law, political and religious repression, persecution of minorities (especially the followers of Dharma), horrendous ethnic strife, state-sponsored terrorism, and an irreparably failed economy deceptively propped up by the infusion of many billions of American taxpayers’ dollars.
To the tremendous bewilderment of many, the current American administration has insisted on making Pakistan a key ally in the “war on terror” despite the fact that Pakistan has always been itself one of the most insidiously unremitting state sponsors of terrorism in the world. It was the infamous clandestine Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) agency of Pakistan that founded and supported the Taliban in its initial takeover of Afghanistan and in its ruthless reign until its final overthrow at the hands of the American military. Pakistan harbored Osama bin Laden and his al-Qaeda minions in its North-West Frontier Province for almost nine years, and refused to allow U.S. military personnel into the area to capture him. Pakistan has waged a proxy terrorist war against the Hindu civilian population of Kashmir for decades, making hundreds of thousands of Kashmiri Hindus refugees in their own country and devastating a region of India that was at one time one of the most beautiful and peaceful places on Earth.
By the sheer weight of the sum total of its destructive actions over the years, Pakistan has brazenly shown the world that it not only deserved to be placed squarely within the so-called “Axis of Evil” cynically formulated by George W. Bush in 2002, but that it deserves to hold the prime spot of prominence in that notorious list!
By every measure of what constitutes a successful nation-state, Pakistan has shown the world since its inception that it is incapable of meeting even the minimal standards of surviving as a viable, unified sociopolitical entity.
Pakistan is an artificial political construct in which several diverse and historically rival ethnic groups were arbitrarily forced together into what was supposed to become an Islamic melting pot. Rather, Pakistan has been faced with calls for independence by many of these ethnic groups, which has in turn led to decades of brutal oppression by the central authorities against ethnic activists. Like Yugoslavia in the 1990s, Pakistan is destined to be rent asunder by these contrasting ethnic interests in the very near future. Pakistan’s 170 million long-suffering people would be significantly better off if this natural process of political devolution were allowed to occur.
Rather than continuing to support the impossible notion of salvaging the central state, Pakistan should be allowed to naturally devolve into the several smaller states historically comprising the territorial demarcations of its multiple ethnic divisions. Rather than a failed Pakistani state, there should be four independent states of Balochistan, Afghania (the present “North-West Frontier Province” that constitutes the traditional home of the Pashtun people), Punjab, and Sindh, with “Azad” Kashmir most likely reverting back to India.
Nothing less than the naturally occurring disintegration of present-day Pakistan will ensure the political stability of the region, the assurance of the human and civil rights of the people of Pakistan, and the eradication of the world’s most unstable and dangerous terrorist state. It is time to move on from the failed “Pakistan” experiment.
As a failed nation-state, we call for the immediate and systematic dismantling of the artificial entity known as Pakistan, and the creation of new, more organic independent nations that will more naturally reflect the separate ethnic groups that make up the current state of “Pakistan.”
European Union Policy
Though established upon a non-European continent, America is a culturally and ethnically European nation. As such, America has, throughout its history, always had deep spiritual connections with our European ancestral lands. The strong bonds between the European and American peoples are eternal and unbreakable. Those bonds with the actual peoples of Europe will be further strengthened in the future through direct means, however, and not through the official government of the European Union, which many of the actual people of Europe view as an oppressive imposition of ultimately non-European interests.
Russia Policy
Russia represents one of the oldest and most historically important cultures and civilizations in Europe. At the same time, however, the Russian people have had to endure one of the longest histories of a totalitarian and imperialist regime in the form of Soviet Communism that has left Russia’s great people in poverty, bondage, fear and lack of knowledge of what it means to explore a life of full liberty. In order for Russia to prosper and regain its respect and status in the free world, Russia must commit itself to a complete break from its totalitarian, Marxist past. Russia must be encouraged to continue its process of
national renewal, especially as it has been experienced in the last decade under the very able leadership of Vladimir Putin. Marxist strongmen and dictators must never again be allowed to rule Russia and oppress the Russian people.
Russia is a vast nation of approximately 100 different ethnic groups. Each of these ethnic groups must be allowed sovereignty and freedom to express their cultural identities, and the right to create their own respective independent nation-states. The newly sovereign states will include Tartarstan, Chechnya, and Siberia, among many others. The Ural Mountains should comprise the eastern-most border of the Russian nation.
A Natural Global Order — Not a New World Order
Artificial barriers that have separated peoples in the past have been rapidly dissolving at an exponential rate for more than a century. The world is quickly becoming a unified global community. Whether we like this fact or not, this is not a process that can be halted or ignored. Overall, this is a potentially positive development in human history if the process of an increasingly smaller world is approached in the genuine interests of the world’s diverse populations — and not with the covert goal of divesting the world’s populations of their natural diversity.
The foundation of world unity cannot be based on economic interests alone, as they are currently under the forces of the New World Order, but must be based on the higher principles of spirituality, intercultural exchange between sovereign peoples, and the inherent human need to know one’s neighbor. Additionally, global unity cannot come at the expense of denying the existence and right of distinct cultures, races, ethnic groups, and nations to insist upon their own uniqueness, and to exercise their freedom to express and celebrate their own individual heritage as they so desire.
The creation of a totalitarian New World Order represents the planned end-goal of the small, psychopathic, and secret cabal that has been surreptitiously building the foundations of a secular-materialist super-state for the last two centuries of human history.[8] This New World Order scheme is based upon the shortsighted ideals of one-world government, mass economic exploitation, the elimination of individual and group liberty, and the disintegration of ethno-pluralism. With one united voice, all Dharma Nationalists throughout our world reject the destructive plan of this small, demonic cabal, and instead support an alternative plan to create a fully voluntary and natural global order based on spiritual values, and predicated upon the voluntary cooperation of free, culturally diverse, and independent sovereign nations.
United Nations
Though purportedly created with idealistic intentions, the United Nations has not only proven itself incapable of delivering on its promise of promoting the creation of a world of peace and justice, but in multiple and pronounced ways has only fostered the very opposite of the purported ideals upon which it was founded. The U.N. has shown itself to be a corrupt, ineffective, bureaucratic, counter-productive nightmare that has been a tool of the New World Order much more so than a tool for world peace.
The United Nations needs radical structural reform, as well as philosophical restructuring. Even more to the point, rather than being used as a surreptitious world government-in-waiting, the United Nations must be understood to be merely a discursive and diplomatic body representing the myriad voices of all the Earth’s independent and sovereign nations. The U.N. must never be allowed to become a body invested with legislative, judicial or executive powers over any of its member states.
Sanskrit: The Universal Language
We propose having a universal language to help foster a sense of unity in the new, voluntary natural global order. Such a language would not replace more modern ethnic languages, such as English, German, Italian, Spanish, Russian, and so on, but such a language could provide both a basis for global unity and understanding, as well as serve as a more efficient means for intellectuals, leaders, as well as the common man, to communicate easily across our current linguistic borders. This was the function that Latin served for over 1500 years in Europe, until only quite recently. As such, it served as one of the foundations of a unified Western civilization.
While Latin would be an obvious contender for a future universal language, we need to strongly consider Sanskrit for this role as well. Sanskrit is one of the most ancient languages on Earth, and forms the basis of many Indo-European languages, including even Latin itself. And Sanskrit is a language that, despite its infinite complexity, can be learned as a spoken language. When properly recited, Sanskrit is one of the most beautiful and spiritually moving languages on earth.
Preservation of Ancient Cultures
Despite the fact that the Abrahamic forces have waged a two-thousand-year war of genocidal annihilation against every Dharmic culture, civilization and religion upon the Earth, much of the greatness of what once was still survives to varying degrees. For those ancient cultures that were most completely devastated, it is a race against time to preserve the ancient ruins, temples, manuscripts, inscriptions, and other remnants of these cultures for future study. We call upon the governments of the world to put aside a significant amount of funds and to enact strict laws in order to accomplish this important task of saving our ancient heritage.

[6] While pre-Abrahamic cultures certainly did engage in all manners of war amongst themselves, there is no historical record of any ancient wars ever having been conducted with the sole purpose and goal of one nation’s religion “converting” the population of another nation. To this day, there is no such thing as Hindus engaging in wars of “religious cleansing” against Buddhists, or Buddhists against Taoists, or Taoists against Confucianists, or Confucianists against Shintoists, or Shintoists against Jains, etc. Conducting violent wars in order to convert others is an exclusively Abrahamic concept and practice.

[8] On February 17, 1950, James Warburg, an international banker and financial advisor to Franklin D. Roosevelt, made the following, oft-quoted statement in testimony before the U.S. Senate: “We will have a world government whether you like it or not. The only question is whether that government will be achieved by conquest or consent.” His father, Paul Warburg, was a pivotal player in the creation of both the Federal Reserve Act in 1910, and the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) in 1921, both of which were precursors to the New World Order.
Economic Policy
“The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bank
rupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”
Taylor Caldwell (1900–1985)[1]
Economics
One of the overarching concerns of societies, nations and governments throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries has been the struggle for economic improvement. This century-long era has seen recurring cycles of both depressions and great strides in the economy. The last forty years specifically, however, have seen a systematic decline in the standard of living in America. Since the cultural and political upheavals of the 1960s, America has seen itself on a steady trajectory from being the world’s greatest economy, to eventually reflecting Tertiary Nation status in an economic sense.
Real wages in America are known to have reached their peak in 1972.[2] Earned wages in America have plummeted to such a low amount that the typical two-income family is now 15% poorer than a one-income family was 40 years ago.[3] With the Obama Depression that began in 2008, we have seen a further exacerbating decline in the average American’s standard of living, with high unemployment, the skyrocketing of foreclosures and a converse decline in home sales, the rapid continuation of high- and middle-income jobs being sent abroad, the record-breaking national debt, and rising commodity and gas prices. Since Obama took office, household incomes have dropped more than 8%.[4] The American people are now experiencing one of the worst economic crises in our history. The crypto-Marxist economic policies implemented by generations of successive presidential regimes have failed to secure meaningful prosperity for the American people. The economic policies of the Dharma Nation Movement, however, will restore that prosperity.
