Muhammed's Unsent Message

I had one of those strange mornings yesterday that are very natural to me, but that other people would find very, very strange and very difficult.  Day before yesterday while watching the coverage of The Trade Center attack, they showed a special about what has been happening to women in Afghanistan since The Taliban took over.  I knew Muhammed was interested in this subject so I transmitted a signal to him and asked if he wanted to watch it.  He did.  As the show proceeded Muhammed got angrier and angrier.  He kept calling The Taliban some name that sounded like harem, but that wasn't it.  Whatever it was, it was not something nice!
When the report ended, Muhammed thanked me for sharing it with him, and departed, saying he'd get back to me.  In the morning while I worked at the restaurant he returned and announced that he had had a long conversation with God, and God had decided that it would not be proper for The United States to lead the campaign against The Taliban and the terrorists, that this should be handled by Arab and Islamic troops.  Muhammed informed me he wanted me to contact the governments of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Iran, Pakistan, and Indonesia, and tell them to raise an army to avenge The Daughters Of Islam.  That The United States should transport this army to Pakistan and assist it in attacking The Taliban, that with its fine aircraft and artillery they could lend support, and American troops could hold ground already taken guarding the Islamic army's rear, as they advanced.  Other smaller Islamic nations in the area could also send in troops, and the Islamic people from India could help.  But God wanted The People Of Islam to deal with this situation, not Christians.  It is an Islamic problem, and should be dealt with by The Islamic People.  The Islamic People should capture, try, and execute the terrorists, because the crimes were committed in the name of their religion, and therefore, they were shamed more than anyone else.  And the horrors done to Islamic women and children in The Name Of God should be punished by Islamic men.
I listened to all that Muhammed had to say, and then, sadly, told him we couldn't help.  If Islamic forces went in instead of American forces, if they worked with the American Forces, they would be under The Declaration Of War between The United States and The Kingdom Of God. We would not be able to protect them.  My merely delivering the message could violate the conditions of The Declaration Of War!  I would be aiding The United State's Forces.  Muhammed argued with me for some time, but then realizing I was not going to concede, in great disappointment bid me good morning and left.
All of this was happening with my coworkers around me, and they had no conception of what was happening!  The Greatest Forces in the world were flowing through our little kitchen.  The Lord Of Islam was in their midst and they had no idea, whatsoever!  I think Muhammed's plan, or, God's plan, whatever way you want to look at it, had promise!  I think it would've been much better for everyone concerned if Islamic Forces led the battle against Islamic terrorists.  But I can't send the messages, I can't make the effort because The United States and The Kingdom Of God are still at war, something that simply should not be happening, but that is.

Yours In The Service Of All Who Have Gone Before And Gave The Light,

Speaker Gerald Polley
