The workshop takes place less than two months after his death the reporters discuss their shared trauma, their nightmares, insomnia, paranoia.

To be sure, there is something deranged about North Korea s political system. The Kim family s tyranny is based on a mixture of ideological fanaticism, vicious realpolitik, and paranoia.

We agreed we'd speak up in our own communities when we witnessed the kind of otherizing talk that can wound and fester into paranoia and then be used by those on the fringes to incite.

One aspect of knowledge, as we know from nineteenth century philosophy (and who studies that anymore?), reflects the integration of information with experience. Today, information is integrated with emotion and with suspicion, sometimes bordering on paranoia, about the underlying motives of the leadership classes.

There is only one way to divert attention from this humiliating predicament propaganda about self reliance and the imminent threat from US imperialists and their South Korean lackeys must be turned up to a hysterical pitch. Without this orchestrated paranoia, the Kims have no legitimacy.

That is no excuse for paranoia and repression, but just because the Party has outlasted predictions of its demise does not mean that it has no Achilles heel. Most notably, the anger over corruption and nepotism that fueled the Tiananmen protests has never gone away.

Who then will stop their advance towards Russia s southern borders from Afghanistan and Central Asia? The problem with diplomatic paranoia is not that someone is after you, but that you are unable to tell the difference between a real enemy and an imagined one.

To conclude, while Israel did have legitimate security concerns, its Government had taken advantage of the paranoia of non State terrorism in certain countries to embark on a reign of State terrorism in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, bringing into contempt the Charter and the principles enshrined therein.

I read about a study recently of successful entrepreneurs, and the author found that these people shared a habit that he called productive paranoia, which meant that these people, instead of dismissing their fears, these people read them closely, they studied them, and then they translated that fear into preparation and action.

An enormous Chinese Embassy has been built in Reykjavik with an eye to improving China s intelligence about future developments in the Arctic Ocean. And Chinese companies land purchases in Iceland have been so extensive as to fuel local paranoia, with some investment plans blocked for fear that they might be a stepping stone to a Chinese military presence.

For if Russia s anti Western paranoia continues and the Kremlin s Eurasian fantasy of allying with China lasts another 10 15 years, Russia will end up seeing China swallowing its Far East and Siberia. Indeed, the weakened Russia that will be Putin s legacy will then also lose the Northern Caucasus and the Volga region to their growing Muslim populations.

If Israel is to reverse its shift toward international isolation, and help build a stable regional security environment, it must change its approach. Paranoia and antagonism must give way to sober politics, with Israeli leaders discussing potential strategic compensation with the US, working with other powers to address Iran s support for Hamas and Hezbollah, and considering a credible revival of peace negotiations with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.

Given the prevailing paranoia, fueled by propaganda and genuine ignorance, on both sides of the border, it is possible that our hosts were being excessively cautious.

In the late 1940 s and the 1950 s, the Cold War and fears that the Red Menace would sap American resolve from within led to myriad anti subversive programs, with tens of thousands of Americans losing their livelihoods as a result. Finally, during the Nixon years, the president s paranoia about opposition to the Vietnam War and to his policies fuelled a pattern of abuses that eventually brought about his resignation in disgrace.
