Elijah Muhammad's widow finds synchronicity, aspires to Mongol roots

[On the eve of the 13th anniversary of the Million Man March.]

The Time Line of History, the Law of Synchronicity and the Hour!

Journey to Mongolia, Part 2—

"And for their disbelief and for their uttering against Mary a grievous calumny: And for their saying: We have killed the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, the messenger of Allah, and they killed him not, nor did they cause his death on the cross, but he was made to appear to them as such. And certainly those who differ therein are in doubt about it. They have no knowledge about it, but only follow a conjecture, and they killed him not for certain: Nay, Allah exalted him in His presence. And Allah is ever Mighty, Wise." Holy Qur'an, Surah 6, verses 156-158

Behind the scenes of this magnificent event that took place in the second week of September in Mongolia, much transpired behind the scenes that heightened the drama and added to our awareness bringing the law of synchronicity (the frequency of telepathy) to the foreground in the fulfillment of Divine Prophesy. The timing of my visit to Mongolia coincided with the exact timing of the International Leadership Conference and Global Peace Fest convened by the Universal Peace Federation working in Mongolia, without my having previous knowledge of its preparation. I entered Mongolia precisely at the time of this event being exactly the time of my arrival.

Once the sponsoring entities learned of my expected arrival, I was placed along with my traveling companions as the guests of Bishop Chang Shik Yang, who now heads the leadership of the Unification Church in Korea. He hosted our visit both in Mongolia and in Seoul, Korea. This event was several years in the making being stimulated by my first visit in 2003. This was the start of my search to find answers to how I might be related to Kublai Khan. This information that was revealed to me in a vision in 1984 while visiting Addis Abbaba, Ethiopia, in Africa.

Representatives from the Unification Church leadership and Universal Peace Federation having learned of my vision and search in finding the interpretation of this vision had first opened the doors to my investigations and my most recent discoveries in Mongolia.

I was told several years ago before the first organized visit of the Unification Church to Mongolia, giving way to this extraordinary event of this month that I had been shown the significance of Mongolia years before the present hour and before the Reverend and Mrs. Moon began to mention the important genetic link between the Peoples of the Mongolian Nation in the geneology of the rest of the world. Recently, I was told by visiting dignitaries from the Unification Church at the office and Residence of the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan in Chicago that one of the sons of Reverend and Mrs. Moon also had a vision similar to my own concerning a peace concert and festival several months prior to its inauguration by the Chairman of the Global Peace Fest, Dr. Hyun Jin Moon in Washington, D.C. on August 9th. I had no idea until my recent travel to Mongolia that I would be participating as a guest of the Global Peace Fest planned in Mongolia and that my ticket for travel was arranged to arrive in the exact timing of its program schedule set for the evening of September 9th in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. Nor did I know that I would meet the exact son who was carrying this vision.

When meeting him and his wife at the gala dinner banquet held at the Presidential Palace, I shared with him briefly the story of my vision with words to convey to his father that I had come into the knowledge, after these five years, of the meaning of my vision and the historic relationship that I bear to the people of Mongolia traced through the lineage of Genghis Khan passed on to his grandson and last of the great Mongol Khans, Kublia Khan. We also met with several noted artists from the world of the classical and traditional schools of music and Theatre who pledged their support by one day being able to visit the United States to participate in my TaHa Production of a World Peace Concert and International Arts Festival in the near future. They are also planning to premier this work, Insha Allah, in Mongolia next year.

There is a timeline for every fulfillment of prophesy which can neither manifest before or after its time; but with patience and prayer, we will all come to know about it at the proper time.

"And there is none of the People of the Book but will believe in this before his death; and on the day of Resurrection he will be a witness against them. So for the iniquity of the Jews, We forbade them the good things which had been made lawful for them, and for their hindering many (people) from Allah's way." Holy Qur'an, Surah 6, verses 159-160

Crisis throws up sobering non-capitalist thoughts

It is tempting to dismiss Iceland's misadventures as tragicomedy, an economic version of The Mouse that Roared, a country of some 320,000 people (roughly the same as Cork and its immediate surroundings) borrowing €94 billion.

Two chilling realities quickly freeze the mirth. The first is that the investments of the Icelandic banks were largely sound. Like Northern Rock in the UK, their lending was far from unreasonable. Their Achilles heel was that their loans were funded, not by deposits, but by borrowing on the world market. Once banks refused to lend to other banks, they were dead.

The European Central Bank provided Iceland with some operating credit, while the central banks of the other Nordic countries assemble a €10 billion package and Reykjavik negotiates a €5 billion loan from Russia. This, and further assistance, should be adequate to keep the Icelandic economy operational while its government sorts through the rubble. In time the authorities in Reykjavik will most likely recuperate much of their former banks' assets. An Icelandic request to join the European Union has become a political probability.

If the rest of the world can, with a little effort accompanied by a shredding of the rule book, bail out Iceland, it is doubtful whether it could so easily digest a 20 times larger rescue of Swiss banking. The Icelandic ratio of bank assets to GDP was 11:1. The Swiss equivalent is around 5.5:1. The two largest Swiss banks, UBS and Credit Suisse, have assets of just over €2 trillion, while Switzerland's GDP stands at €332 billion and rumours about UBS refuse to go away. Sacrosanct rules and long-established reference points are being swept away by seemingly irresistible torrents of change. The process has become so rapid that even radical analyses become redundant almost as soon as they are put forward.

US author David Rothkopf, a former member of the Clinton administration, last March published his controversial book Superclass - The Global Power Elite and the World They Are Making. The book argues that the world's six billion people are governed by an elite superclass of 6,000 individuals. This superclass, he argued, has helped create complex financial instruments that replaced currency as the primary repositories of "value". These are not issued by governments, most are not regulated, and the risks associated with them are hidden. Research among big US institutional investors reveals that over 80 per cent of staff felt their boards did not understand the risks inherent in the portfolios they were responsible for.

Icelandic shoppers splurge as currency woes reduce food imports

After a four-year spending spree, Icelanders are flooding the supermarkets one last time, stocking up on food as the collapse of the banking system threatens to cut the island off from imports.
``We have had crazy days for a week now,'' said Johannes Smari Oluffsson, manager of the Bonus discount grocery store in Reykjavik's main shopping center. ``Sales have doubled.''
Bonus, a nationwide chain, has stock at its warehouse for about two weeks. After that, the shelves will start emptying unless it can get access to foreign currency, the 22-year-old manager said, standing in a walk-in fridge filled with meat products, among the few goods on sale produced locally.
Iceland's foreign currency market has seized up after the three largest banks collapsed and the government abandoned an attempt to peg the exchange rate. Many banks won't trade the krona and suppliers from abroad are demanding payment in advance. The government has asked banks to prioritize foreign currency transactions for essentials such as food, drugs and oil.
The crisis is already hitting clothing retailers. A short walk from Bonus in the capital's Kringlan shopping center, Ragnhildur Anna Jonsdottir, 38, owner of the Next Plc clothing store, said she can't get any foreign currency to pay for incoming shipments and, even if she could, the exchange rate would be prohibitively high.
``We aren't getting new shipments in, as we normally do once a week,'' Jonsdottir said. ``This is the third week that we haven't had any shipments.''
Bankrupt
Iceland's 320,000 inhabitants have enjoyed four years of economic growth in excess of 4 percent as banks and businesses expanded abroad, buying up companies from brokerages to West Ham United soccer club. Now, the three biggest banks, Kaupthing Bank hf, Landsbanki Island hf and Glitnir Bank hf have collapsed under the weight of about $61 billion in debts, 12 times the size of the economy, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
The central bank, or Sedlabanki, ditched its attempt to peg the krona to a basket of currencies on Oct. 9, after just two days, citing ``insufficient support'' in the market. Nordea Bank AB, the biggest Scandinavian lender, said the same day that the krona hadn't been traded on the spot market, while the last quoted price was 340 per euro, compared with 122 a month ago.
``There is absolutely no currency in the country today to import,'' said Andres Magnusson, chief executive officer of the Icelandic Federation of Trade and Services in Reykjavik. ``The only way we can solve this problem is to get the IMF into the country.''
Imports Dependency
The International Monetary Fund sent a delegation to the island last week. Prime Minister Geir Haarde said on Oct. 9 his country may ask it for money after failing to get ``the response that we felt that we should be able to get'' from European governments and central banks. The state will also start talks with Russia over a possible 4 billion-euro ($5.5 billion) loan.

Survey: American Jews favor Obama over McCain

An annual survey published by the American Jewish Committee on Thursday revealed that American Jewish voters favor Senator Barack Obama over Senator John McCain for U.S. president by a margin of 57-30 percent.

The surprising figure to emerge from the survey was the unexpectedly large number of undecided voters, at 13 percent.
