A high ranking advisor to the leader of a middle-eastern Islamic entity recently travelled to a foreign secretive place to meet with the head of a powerful international religious cult.
U.S. services have long connected the advisor to terrorism and nuclear activities, while the second person is known for old relations to fascist currents.
The secret talks were likely held without translators in a third
language, possibly German, believed to be common to both of the participants.
We
were informed that during the meeting the first person offered some ‘mystic documentations’ of high value to the second person and that
this offer was accepted with grace. (One U.S. paid source doubts the relevance of the meeting and the ‘gift’, but could present no proof for that assessment.)
Prior reports connected similar meetings involving these persons to the use of a ‘secret weapon‘.
In the aftermath of the meeting the participants jointly published a pamphlet on religious justification of war on an Internet site.
We assess that the content of this paper will have significant
impact on future relations between various cults and on international
acts of war.
No major U.S. media have reported on the meeting or on the likely high significance of the published paper.
How can the U.S. be silent on this developing mushroom cloud?
Okay, now the non-Debka version.
There is a ongoing dialog on religion between Iran and the Vatican. Recently the pope met with
Mehdi Ahari Mustafani, an advisor to president Ahmedinejad, and a delegation of shiite scholars and received as a gift a copy of the quran.
The meeting was at the end of a conference between high ranking shiite and catholic scholars. A common paper was released which in a few sentences has some far reaching agreements on religion and reason.
Mehdi Ahari Mustafani was Iranian ambassador to Austria and Germany in the 1980s. Since that time the U.S. tries to connect him to the 1979 hostage crisis but has little proof for that assertion. Mustafani speaks German and likely knows Ratzinger, now the pope, from earlier meetings there.
Later Mustafani was promoted to deputy foreign minister of Iran and then acting foreign minister. He had a role in publicly defending Iran’s civil nuclear program. Since November he is leading the Iranian Islamic Culture and Relations Organization and acts as advisor to president Ahmedinejahd. It can be assumed that Mustafani has the highest possible endorsements for his negotiations with the Vatican.
The common paper between the catholic church and the leading shiite entity is quite a historic document. While I may not agree with it, it is a very important piece of interfaith development and should be given some thought.
It says:
"Faith and reason are both gifts of God to mankind.
"Faith and reason do not contradict each other, but faith might in some cases be above reason, but never against it.
"Faith and reason are intrinsically non-violent. Neither reason nor faith should be used for violence; unfortunately, both of them have been sometimes misused to perpetrate violence. In any case, these events cannot question either reason or faith.
"Both sides agreed to further co-operate in order to promote genuine religiosity, in particular spirituality, to encourage respect for symbols considered to be sacred and to promote moral values.
"Christians and Muslims should go beyond tolerance, accepting differences, while remaining aware of commonalties and thanking God for them. They are called to mutual respect, thereby condemning derision of religious beliefs.
"Generalisation should be avoided when speaking of religions. Differences of confessions with Christianity and Islam, diversity of historical contexts are important factors to be considered.
"Religious traditions cannot be judged on the basis of a single verse or a passage present in their respective holy Books. A holistic vision as well as an adequate hermeneutical method is necessary for a fair understanding of them".
Remarkable.
And again – why are the U.S. media quiet on this?
