The Eisenhower doctrine
John Bjarne Grover
The Eisenhower doctrine was issued on 5 January 1957. The date is at the end of a calendarial telescope relative to the birth of King Albert of Saxony, which perhaps is not coincidental. It contains an introduction plus 9 sections. The template seems to be the Oslo Report from 1938 (delivered to the naval attache in Oslo shortly after the sinking of the 'Royal Oak') which contains 10 sections, but no intro. The structure could perhaps be a 'pushdown automaton' which was one of Chomsky's four grammar types from those days of 1957. If, for example, it pushes 6 down on 5, and 7 down on 6, the 9-unit doctrine reduces to an Octogon. On the surface, the doctrine articulates the Eisenhower administration's views on their relations with the Middle East but I have later come to conclude that it can be read as quite advanced 'double talk', although I don't know if it was so from the beginning. I have had various interpretations of it but as of november 2009 I have landed on the interpretation which sees it - beyond its plain language on politics on the Middle East - as encoding a shift from the function of the commandment against Idol Fitlers in Exodus 20,4 - which seems to have been the basis for the Klipra connection - to a new generation reading of Vulgata 1, possibly for a new connection for a new century. It is possible to see it as encoding the names of the 8-9 females which constituted the 'Octogon' program on me - as I see it now - from 1977 to 1982 with an 'intro' with 'Laila' on 'vollane' (right outside Voldgata 1 - cp. Vulgata 1!) in late 1973. The stories seemed to have the function of encoding 'illegitimate relation' on a scale of border-crossings from marriage to separated status to friend's girlfriend (Laila). The most extreme case was perhaps #3 which was a separated female whose husband reportedly had already found a new female for her place, but they were not formally divorced, only separated, which means that it was a case of formalities. She was nearly 20 years older than me and my chief at my workplace. The formalities could nevertheless be have been visible in the environments of the exit of Johan Jörgen Holst on 12 January 1994 (I am not sure about his condition between the day he was shot in the head and the day he died, but I think I saw somewhere, if I am not mistaken, that he had been up on crutches). These characteristics are probably not far from #4 as well. After the unsuccessful intro with 'Laila' outside Voldgata 1 (!) in 1973, there followed the year of 1975 with enough 'hints' (several diseases and hospitalizations, torture and anaesthesia with intervenous bottle) to soften me enough to make me willing to 'collaborate' on the program, perhaps on the background of childhood memories from 20 January 1959 mid way through Eisenhower's period. The names of the relevant persons seem to be contained in the undertext of the Eisenhower doctrine, which means that the whole program could in fact have been somewhat planned (or at least some phonology could) already in 1957. I have no proofs of this assumption, but it makes sense in the overall structure. Alternatively, it could also be that the doctrine already existed when the names were mapped onto it (for example in the second half of the sixties in extension from the kitchen scene which seems to be the background for the 'kitchen tap' phenomenon). Since this important question cannot be evaluated without knowledge of the names - and since the names seem to have some function in the political reality - I bring them here (according to my memory and belief - number IX could be uncertain), and as far as I am able to map them onto the parts of the doctrine: Intro-'Laila', I-'Karen Anne Axelsen' (later changed to 'Tulla Elieson' - could be the first form was 'Anne Karen' which is more natural for a name), II-'Tordis Skjærven Søderlind', III-'Jette Råboe [or 'Raabo'?] Larsen', IV-'Ayo Jardar', V-'Kirsten Ribu', VII-'Tonje Aanonsen', VIII-'Herdis Eggen', IX-'Ellen Berger', or at least there are some reflexes of such possible links to the doctrine, and a reading of V-'Wenche Stray' for V-'Kirsten Ribu' could be a late interpretation of dubious kind - unless VI is not only my name but rather a female.
