The Night Visitor

Dear President Ahmadinejad

xexon | 24 May, 2006 03:49

Greetings,

As I can not talk to you directly, I will use this website as my postal service, and hope that these words find their way to you somehow.

You and I live in very different worlds. You are the leader of a nation, and I, an unknown citizen of the USA. Perhaps what we share, is a vision of a world much different than the one we have today.

We each know that war is about to consume civilization as we know it. It comes because it must come. Humanity is ready to move up a notch in it's spiritual evolution. But first, the old ways must be destroyed.

This war is going to be different from all the ones before it. Its purpose will be one of burning away the weeds that grow in the garden of the spirit. Mankind has allowed it's spiritual nature to be pushed aside in favor of worldly things.

Money, oil, even religion itself, all belong to the earth, and to the earth, they will bind people. These things will be the excuse for starting war, not knowing that it is they who will perish in it.

My friend, I follow no religion, yet I have always walked with God. I've read many of the world's holy books, and respected those who believe in them. As for Islam, the Mahdi, is someone we both have an interest in.

As I said, I follow no religion, but I should not be considered an infidel by Islamic standards. I don't fit into the usual boxes people try to put me in. I somehow perceive you are much the same. Perhaps, it is through people like you and I that the Mahdi whispers his message?

I have plenty of time to listen. More than most.

What I've heard so far has changed my understanding of the future, religion, and my inner self. When I first heard the term "Mahdi", my own inner compass swung around as if a magnet. had gotten too close. The journey since has been...interesting.

I will most likely never meet you in person. I am a person of few wants or needs, and live a simple life, without the money to travel such a distance. But if I were to meet you, I would hug you as a spiritual brother I had just found.

I wish you well in the difficult days ahead.

When good countries go bad

xexon | 23 May, 2006 03:02

If I had fallen into a coma 50 years ago and woke up just recently, I would swear that I was in a different country.

I've been awake all those years, but I can only vaguely remember what it was like to live in a nation I was once so proud to be a citizen of. Where is the apple pie and white picket fence America I was brought up to believe in? Whatever happened to the land of the free and home of the brave? To our generous hearts? To our shining example of democracy?

Why is the United States pulling a Jekyll & Hyde on the world?

We can take a hint by examining president Eisenhower's final speech in 1961. In it, he warned us of the growing military/industrial complex. Even then, it was making inroads into our own government. Eisenhower knew of it years earlier, and for whatever reason, perhaps out of fear for his own life, he kept silent about it up until the very end of his term in office.

The United States has now become a corporate entity rather than a democracy.

This is what happens when the will of the people has been pushed aside by private interests and big money. Money talks, as the old saying here goes. The leaders listened (traitors!), and sold out our country to the highest bidder. In a democracy, the people talk, leaders listen, and act according to the will of those people. I don't know what to call whatever is in place today. It sure ain't democracy. And the "will of the people" is manipulated with propaganda to the point we don't even know who we are anymore.

This is not just happening in the USA, but as the world's last remaining military superpower, the implications for the rest of the world are grave. If its not the will of the people driving this country, then its somebody else's. That somebody is eyeing the oil reserves around the world with the intention of making it their own. And they have the huge military of the US at their disposal.

The only barrier to them having absolute control over this country is being unable to convince 100% of the population that they are right and you are wrong. They did a good job selling the Iraq war. They did a good job of making people feel threatened by outside enemies. They even did a good job of covering their tracks to 9/11.

People are beginning to wake up to the fact that something is wrong with us. Perhaps too late. We have a cancerous growth at the highest levels of government.

I don't think we're going to survive it.

Wake me when its over

xexon | 10 May, 2006 05:12

What is the solution to many of today's problems?

War is coming. Millions are dying of starvation around the world. Poverty. Lack of education. Lack of decent healthcare. Lack of any hope. It just goes on and on.

Now, the world is supposedly run by intelligent people. They dress in their fine suits. Eat at the table of plenty. Shake hands on TV with fellow international leaders, and thats about all they're good for, most of them. What have they done for you lately? Thats the question you need to be asking yourself.

When I look at the world today, I see what a mess they've made of things. A mess that you and I have to clean up, because you know they won't.

We in the west constantly pound our chest over what a fine democratic system of government we have, but where is the voice of the people? Thats REAL democracy, not this pale excuse of it you see coming from places such as Washington and London.

Democracy is dying. And all the nations that have embraced it are dying right along with it. Suckered into a war that nobody wanted.

The reason is pretty simple. We've sold our national souls to corporate interests. Oil companies. Weapons manufacturers. International bankers, etc. All BIG money.They call the shots now, and they don't care what you say or think about it. They still let you vote, but that will change just as soon as they figure out away to take it away from you. Right now, they still have to play by the rules of government, but they employ small armies of lawyers to rewrite government, one rule at a time. Can't move too fast. Might spook the herd. They will wait until they have you where they want you... before they close the door behind you.

Those of you in other countries where democracy is not the form of government have a different problem. You need to take a hard look at where your leadership gets it's authority to tell you what to do. There is a good chance that they too are under the spell of big money from the corporate world. If your nation has oil. If your nation has another valuble natural resource. If your nation has a strategic location. You are in danger.

The solution to today's many problems?

It's you.

Many of you have been far too silent about the direction things have taken in the world. Its time to put aside our differences in religion, and race, and culture. We have a common enemy to fight. You don't have to take up a weapon. You just have to be loud.

We all need to stand up and be heard, otherwise we're all going to be shot down and buried.

The hour is late. Real late.

Its NOT the CIA's fault

xexon | 06 May, 2006 04:56

Many people around the world have felt the touch of the CIA in one way or another over the years.

Yes, they have done terrible things. That cannot be denied. Now, there are many good people within this agency who have a genuine interest in doing what the CIA was designed to do... collect intelligence about threats to the United States. But in recent years, under the presidency of George Bush, things have taken a hideous turn.

The CIA is now a tool for the neocons and their agenda. They have been made the whipping boy for the Iraq war, and this is just not the truth. The recent shakeup at the CIA should ring the alarm bell for anyone paying attention. Prior to the Iraq war, the CIA was asked to provide evidence that Saddam was preparing to use his weapons of mass destruction. There wasn't any.

But it did not stop there. The neocon plan to invade Iraq had to go forward, evidence or not. So, the CIA was asked if they could fabricate the evidence. They could not. Too big an order. Too little time. The administration decided to push for the invasion anyway. There was an immediant reaction inside the CIA over this decision. To quell this dissent in the ranks of the intelligence community, a shakeup at the CIA was the next step.

Since then, there has been a change of leadership within the agency, to force compliance with the neocon demands. Many senior agents have since resigned in protest. Today, Porter Goss has resigned as head of the CIA. For reasons yet undisclosed. But there is a great deal of turmoil still going on behind the scenes. The CIA will have the last laugh on this president.

The people who compose the intelligence community of the USA should be commended for their hard work in protecting the United States. But, let me warn you of something (because I know some of you are reading this) If you support this current agenda that the neocons have laid before you, you are a part of the problem.

Forget about the money, the prestige, and your retirement plan. If you align yourself with these people, you have crossed the line between right and wrong.

Why Islam must be divided

xexon | 05 May, 2006 04:19

As I understand Islamic prophesy of the end days, Islam must become divided before the Mahdi comes.

I'm trying to talk in general terms here, with no preference towards either Sunni or Shi'a beliefs. This division has already started, so we may expect the rest of events to arrive in short order. A great war is on the horizon.

There are currently many people in the world, both Muslim and "other", who are trying to drive a wedge into the heart of Islam. This is as it should be. If you believe in a perfect God, you must also have faith to believe that his plan for us here on earth is perfect. I know that is very difficult for anyone to maintain in these trying times. We are assaulted on all sides by the winds of war and treachery, and we often lose our center.

We are temped to do evil...by evil, so that we may become as they are.

There is a great and terrible beast roaming the world now. It has many heads, and will be difficult to fight against. It threatens not only Islam, but all of humanity. Islam has been laid upon it's altair as a sacrifice. It flies the flag of Israel, the United States, and several other nations. But, we should not confuse the people of those countries as enemies. They are as much at risk as the rest of us.

But they have been made to sleep and dream by the beast, so they cannot understand what is happening to them. Many of these people who control nations are in service to the beast, whether they know it or not. They too, have been made to sleep and dream.

You may ask what does this beast want?

It wants control of the world. It is tired of playing with it's wealth and material things. It seeks power, because that is the one thing it has not yet had it's fill of. It will pay any price to achieve it. It will lay waste to nations. It will starve the masses. It will poison the hearts of billions of people so that they know only hatred for their fellow man. It will break you down so that you will gladly recieve it's mark as a servant. Many, many, will die in it's service.

But there is one coming who will slay this beast. He will come from the most high. He has many names because people speak in many tongues. But he will have one purpose. He will rise from the ashes of the Middle East.

We cannot escape what is to come, because it must come, but how well you deal with it will determine your fate afterward.

Those who have given in to their animal instincts will not see heaven. You will get what you have earned for yourselves. The company of people who became weak in the face of the beast, and the hell provided for them.

Stop US aid to Israel

xexon | 02 May, 2006 19:31

Its time to cut off US aid to Israel. There are alot of reasons why, but I have my own.

There is an old saying that goes "Whats good for the goose is good for the gander". In other words, if Palestine can do without US aid, then so can Israel.

The argument for cutting off aid to the Palestians is that they have a government that supports terrorism and denies Israel's right to exist. Flip this coin. Israel has a government that supports terrorism and denies the Palestinian's right to exist. Nothing has changed but the spelling of the words. Yet, we pour billions into the Israeli treasury. Every-single-year.

In giving financial aid to to Israel, the United states is doing a few good things, and many bad. The bulk of aid is in the form of military funding. In other words, we are keeping the zionists in power.

Israel cannot exist without the assistance of the United States. They might put up a grand fight, but they would eventually be swarmed by their neighbors who have had enough of zionism.

I'm all for keeping the peace in Israel, but we need to stop being the suckling breast for a racist, apartheid government that is a very close relative of nazi Germany.

We need to wake up and understand that by giving aid to such a system, we are giving permission for it to continue. It must not continue. At least not on my money.

My suggestion for Israel is to throw the zionists out of power or find another breast to suck from.

My nipples have had enough of you.
