Election américaine: Quand le Messie parle (But where had Farrakhan gone?)

L’Amérique est toujours le tueur numéro 1 dans le monde. . . Nous sommes profondément impliqués dans l’importation de la drogue, l’exportation d’armes et la formation de tueurs professionnels. . . Nous avons bombardé le Cambodge, l’Irak et le Nicaragua, tuant les femmes et les enfants tout en essayant de monter l’opinion publique contre Castro et Khaddafi. . . Nous avons mis Mandela en prison et soutenu la ségrégation pendant 27 ans. Nous croyons en la suprématie blanche et l’infériorité noire et y croyons davantage qu’en Dieu. … Nous avons soutenu le sionisme sans scrupule tout en ignorant les Palestiniens et stigmatisé quiconque le dénonçait comme anti-sémite. . . Nous ne nous inquiétons en rien de la vie humaine si la fin justifie les moyens. . . Nous avons lancé le virus du SIDA. . . Nous ne pouvons maintenir notre niveau de vie qu’en nous assurant que les personnes du tiers monde vivent dans la pauvreté la plus abjecte. Rev. Jeremiah Wright (le 15 janvier 2006)
Vous êtes les instruments que Dieu va utiliser pour provoquer le changement universel, et c’est pourquoi Barack a capturé la jeunesse. Et il a fait participer les jeunes dans un processus politique dont ils s’étaient détournés. C’est un signe. Quand le Messie parle, la jeunesse entendra, et il est sûr que le Messie parle. (…) Frères et soeurs, Barack Obama, est pour moi un héraut du Messie. Barack Obama est comme la trompette qui vous avertit que quelque chose de nouveau, quelque chose de meilleur arrive. (…) Un homme de couleur de mère blanche est devenu un sauveur pour nous. Un homme de couleur de mère blanche pourrait s’avérer être celui qui peut sauver l’Amérique de sa chute. Louis Farrakhan (Jour des Sauveurs, le 28 février 2008)
Mais où était donc passé Farrakhan?

A l’heure où, sur fond de crise potentiellement catastrophique du système financier américian et mondial, nos médias et nos foules semblent attendre comme le Messie ce qui ressemble de plus en plus au hold up du siècle

Petit retour, pour ceux qui se demandaient où il pouvait bien être depuis tout ce temps, sur le grand ami du directeur de conscience du candidat démocrate qui avait pourtant promis, campagne oblige, de ne pas trop faire d’ombre à son protégé …

Et édifiante illustration de la véritable passion que soulève la candidature Obama dans certains milieux, notamment noirs, y compris au sein de la Nation de l’islam du pasteur antisémite Louis Farrakhan …

Farrakhan on Obama: ‘The Messiah is absolutely speaking’
‘Barack has captured the youth,’ will bring about ‘universal change’
October 09, 2008
WorldNetDaily

Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, another powerful Chicago-based political figure associated with the Rev. Jeremiah Wright and other long-time associates of Democratic Party presidential candidate Barack Obama, is leaving no doubt about what he thinks of the leader in the campaign for the White House.

He says when Obama talks « the Messiah is absolutely speaking. »

You can watch it for yourself on a newly posted YouTube video.

Addressing a large crowd behind a podium Feb. 24 with a Nation of Islam Saviour’s Day 2008 sign, Farrakhan proclaims,

« You are the instruments that God is going to use to bring about universal change, and that is why Barack has captured the youth. And he has involved young people in a political process that they didn’t care anything about. That’s a sign. When the Messiah speaks, the youth will hear, and the Messiah is absolutely speaking. »

« Brothers and sisters, » Farrakhan said, « Barack Obama to me, is a herald of the Messiah. Barack Obama is like the trumpet that alerts you something new, something better is on the way. »

Farrakhan points out that the man Nation of Islam followers refer to as « the Savior, » Fard Muhammad, had a black father and a white mother, just as Obama did.

« A black man with a white mother became a savior to us, » he said. « A black man with a white mother could turn out to be one who can lift America from her fall.

« Would God allow Barack to be president of a country that has been so racist, so evil in its treatment of Hispanics, native Americans, blacks? » he asked. « Would God do something like that? Yeah. Of course he would. That’s to show you that the stone that the builders rejected has become the headstone of the corner. This is a sign to you. It’s the time of our rise. It’s the time that we should take our place. The future is all about you. »

Farrakhan suggested he would keep a low profile in the campaign, despite his enthusiasm for Obama.

« That’s why you have never heard me make any comment, » he explained. « I love that brother, and I want to see that brother successful. I don’t want to say anything that would hurt that brother, and I don’t want them to use me or the Nation of Islam. »

Returning to the theme that Obama is a mystical figure, Farrakhan said, he « is not the Messiah for sure, but anytime he gives you a sign of uniting races, ethnic groups, ideologies, religions and makes people feel a sense of oneness, that’s not necessarily Satan’s work, that is, I believe, the work of God. »

He went on to point out that when religious scholars talk about Christ or the Islamic Mahdi, they never talk in racial terms – again, pointing to Obama’s mixed racial background.

WND previously reported a website called « Is Barack Obama the Messiah? » captured the wave of euphoria that followed the Democratic senator’s remarkable rise.

The site is topped by an Obama quote strategically ripped from a Jan. 7 speech at Dartmouth College just before the New Hampshire Primary in which he told students, « … a light will shine through that window, a beam of light will come down upon you, you will experience an epiphany, and you will suddenly realize that you must go to the polls and vote » for Obama.

MSNBC anchor Chris Matthews is among the many members of the media enraptured by Obama, admitting he felt a « thrill going up my leg » listening to an Obama speech.

At the media watchdog Newsbusters, P.J. Gladnick writes that Obama has a charisma that goes beyond « his youthful vigor, or handsomeness, or even inspiring rhetoric. »

« Bill Clinton, with all his effortless, winking charm, didn’t have what Obama has, which is a sort of powerful luminosity, a unique high-vibration integrity, » Gladnick says. « Dismiss it all you like, but I’ve heard from far too many enormously smart, wise, spiritually attuned people who’ve been intuitively blown away by Obama’s presence – not speeches, not policies, but sheer presence – to say it’s just a clever marketing ploy, a slick gambit carefully orchestrated by hotshot campaign organizers who, once Obama gets into office, will suddenly turn from perky optimists to vile soul-sucking lobbyist whores, with Obama as their suddenly evil, cackling overlord. »

WND also reported when talk radio host Rush Limbaugh criticized Democrats who were comparing Obama to Jesus and Gov. Sarah Palin to Pontius Pilate.

« I know Jesus Christ. I pray to Jesus Christ all the time, » said Limbaugh. » I study what Jesus Christ did and said all the time, and let me tell you something, Barack Obama, you are no Jesus Christ. »

He also attacked Obama’s stances for abortion and sex education for children in kindergarten, saying, « I can’t find any such references to Jesus promoting infanticide nor do I find any references to Jesus Christ suggesting sex education be taught to 4- and 5-year-olds, but I’m still looking in the New Testament and I’ll let you all know if I come up with anything. »

Democrats, including party strategist Donna Brazile and Rep. Steve Cohen, D-Tenn., made nearly identical biblical comparisons of the characters in this presidential election, which Limbaugh traced back to a Sept. 4 posting on a Washington blog.

« Barack Obama was a community organizer like Jesus, » Cohen said during a one-minute speech on the floor of the U.S. House yesterday. « Pontius Pilate was a governor. »
