....In a documentary slated to begin airing on Monday on BBC TV,

Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qureia and Foreign Minister Nabil

Shaath described the first meeting they had with with Bush in June

2003.

"President Bush said to all of us: 'I'm driven with a mission from

God. God would tell me, "George, go and fight those terrorists in

Afghanistan." And I did, and then God would tell me, "George, go and

end the tyranny in Iraq." And I did. And now, again, I feel God's

words coming to me, "Go get the Palestinians their state and get the

Israelis their security, and get peace in the Middle East." And by

God I'm gonna do it,'" Shaath told the BBC...

 

 

 

Dear Eric ~ I know this is a bit political, but I am very glad you posted

it. I believe it is important for us to know how the people who lead us are

thinking. This scares me to death. It seems sort of a reversal of what we 60's

flower children felt; he is saying that he is being told to "make war, not

love." I am so very grateful that, in Amma, and in the example of many other

great saints and sages, we have the example of how to serve the word with love

only. It is true, after all, I believe, "Love is all we need." (Ah, I'm showing

my age ... but I just bought that Donovan CD that someone on the digest

mentioned awhile back, and I love it.) And as Aikya said in her paper about Amma

(paraphrase), Amma leads in a completely non-hierarchal way. And She leads

with Love. Jai Jai Ma ~ Linda P.S. Aikya can you post the link to your article

again, in case anyone missed it?

i dont know if GOD spoke to george bush or not.if you are honest with your

self ,you would have to say the same thing.the best thing that we could do

is to put him on the prayer list and pray for him and everyone else as

AMMA has instructed us to do.THIS ISNT TO SAY THAT I AGREE WITH GEORGE BUSH

OR NOT,HOWEVER IN THE BHAGIVAD GITA LORD KHRISNA TELLS ARJUNA TO GO TO WAR

AND TO KILL.OFCOURSE WE COULD SAY THAT THAT WAS SYMBOLIC AND THAT HE WAS

COMMANDING HIM TO DESTROY HIS EGO AND INNER DEMONS,BUT THE POINT IS THAT

ARJUNA DIDNT KNOW WHAT HE ACTUALLY MEANT,AS we often do not know what the

greater plan is.like it or not,we are one with GEORGE BUSH,he is our

brother.not as an ameirican but as a fellow human being.if AMMA SAW HIM,HER

HUG FOR HIM WOULD BE JUST AS WARM AS HER HUGS ARE FOR US.!SO YES LOVE IS ALL

WE NEED and through AMMAs grace we do experience it in our hearts but how

expanded is our awareness of it?love you.
