A Second Coming

Layla Anwar, An Arab Woman Blues - Reflections in a sealed bottle...

Iraq is the biggest sacrifice any people can offer for the sake of "Truth". The Iraqi "entreprise" or "experience" is the fig leaf that has unmasked many... Many Americans, many Westerners, many Arabs, many Iranians...many Christians, many Jews and many Muslims...including the Dalai Lama. (So Buddhists save your breath.) Iraq is our cross and Iraq is your salvation - of that I am certain (...) Surely something "good" will come out of all of this? Surely all this suffering cannot go to waste? Yes, something good will come out - Your salvation. We are going to save you and liberate you. Save you and liberate you from the grips of your own Evil. The Evil of your indifference, your apathy, your complacency, your blindness, your ignorance, your arrogance, your haughtiness, your greed, your lies, your deceit, your denial, your viciousness, your cruelty, your death wish... Each one of us is a splinter on that wooden cross and the little boy is "Innocence". And you have crucified Innocence and this Innocence will save you. And we will resurrect. Maybe not on the third day, but resurrect we will. That is the grand Design, that is the Plan. I just know. And you will have millions of resurrected bodies, young and old waiting for you with open arms. And you will come running, blinded by the Force that will transpierce you like beams of Light. Each tear, each wound, each scar will be like golden drops of rain, like golden flags waving in the firmament. Flags of Victory. And those of you who pretended to see whilst deliberately closing their eyes will be left out. Left out in that same Darkness, on scorched desert grounds...Left out in that same Obscurity I saw in the dream. How can you otherwise explain all that suffering? I tell you - It is nothing but a preparation. Do not think you can simply turn on your heels and go back doing what you do best: lying, plundering, pillaging, stealing, raping, torturing, killing...It is not possible. Life is not an exercise in Futility. So yes it is a preparation. For we are the Cross, the Body, the Flesh and the Blood. And you are nothing but the thorns and the nails... We will resurrect, I promise you. So pay heed, for our second coming is in the making. And what a mighty one it will be...
