Hiding
the truth: The media's campaign against Farrakhan
Previous
Column
The
theme of the last four articles continues here, by way of a
significant truth about, and of, the Honorable Minister Louis
Farrakhan, which bears directly on our efforts to attain our fullest
self-development.
On the 9th of October, Minister Farrakhan held a press conference
at the Sheraton Hotel, in New York City. He had just ended a seven
nation eight-day trip in Africa. Direct from a 17-hour airplane trip
from South Africa, he entered the room where he met the press.
The Black media was represented by: The New York Amsterdam News,
The Daily Challenge, The London Press, The Muslim
Journal, the Caribbean Life, and The Final Call.
What is called the "mainstream" press was represented by The
Associated Press, CNN, The Daily News, The New
York Post, Newsday, The New York Times, NY 1
News-TV, WCBS-TV, WNBC News-TV, WWOR-TV,
WB11-TV.
It�s now the 13th of October. The "mainstream" media
have hardly mentioned this event. It was an event of national
significance that was kept from the nation.
This reflects the "establishment" press coverage of
Minister Farrakhan�s activities, since 1984, which has mostly been
characterized by repeated lies, half-truths and mockery. They have
portrayed him as an inferior, who is trying to become legitimate by
entering what they call the "mainstream" of American life.
The fact is that Minister Farrakhan�s example and teachings could
reverse the filthy mainstream of this country�s life, if accepted.
Why did America�s media produce a near "black"- or
"white"-out of his October the 9th press conference? Did
they ever have any intention of reporting what he might say, unless
they could hurt the Million Family March?
Some media persons who have covered Minister Farrakhan�s speeches
and press conferences, later indicated that they were favorably
impressed with the Minister�s sincerity and honesty, and overall
integrity. They were moved by the enlightening power of the truth that
he speaks, and by his reasoned approach to the problems of America.
They know of the distortions, half-truths, and the out-right lies
which their news organizations have reported to the American public
about Minister Farrakhan.
Despite gross misrepresentations about himself, Minister Farrakhan
is rising above it. Among the factors, in his rise, are the increasing
numbers of people who have seen and heard him for themselves.
Of course, there are those who have attended events involving
Minister Farrakhan, whose hearts were unjustifiably set against him
before they ever saw him. Unjustifiably, their hatred has grown. This
is especially true of members�not all�of the ruling class of this
world.
Who really owns America�s media? For an answer to this,
see the following web address given below.
Whose force backing Minister Farrakhan are these powerful owners
really trying to overcome in their war against him? Why is the real
truth of and from Minister Farrakhan, in their terms, "above top
secret?"
In Rule by Secrecy, Mr. Jim Marrs wrote: "Author
Perloff warned from a Christian perspective that a monumental battle
is shaping up between the Kingdom of Christ and �an evil, one-world
government: the kingdom of the Antichrist � . Many notables of the
American Establishment have given themselves over to one side in this
conflict, and it is not the side the ancient scriptures recommend �
. Whether or not they are conspirators, whether they are conscious or
not of the ultimate consequences of their actions, their powerful
influence has helped move the world to apocalyptic events.� "
The fourth chapter of the book of Revelation has material in it
that corresponds with the meeting the Honorable Elijah Muhammad had
with his Teacher, at some point not long after February 25, 1975. At
the appropriate time he received the scroll or book from the right
hand of Him Who sat upon the throne, as described in that chapter.
Verse one of the sixth chapter of Revelation says that the
"Lamb," then opened the first of the seven seals of this
scroll or book. His work with that little book, or scroll, is
described throughout the rest of Revelation.
Superimpose, or place the events of the book of Revelation over
the events of the book of Acts. Christ is the dominant person in
Revelation, who brings in God�s new world. Paul is the dominant
person in Acts, in the formation of the early church. Christ is
guiding the modern Paul. He has also nearly completed repeating
portions of the steps contained in the Gospels, which his teacher
took.
What was written in those books was intended for these
times. The events of both books have led up to the events of the
present time.
Earlier today I visited The Tape Connection, here in Washington,
D.C. A videotaped speech of Minister Farrakhan was playing. He called
it, "What is the Meaning of Life and Death?" He delivered it
on July 23, 1994, at the Charlotte Convention Center, in Charlotte,
North Carolina. Since we are now confronted with "life and
death" as described in the 28th chapter of Deuteronomy, get it.
In connection with this, Mr. Perloff observed, "a monumental
battle is shaping up between the Kingdom of Christ and � the kingdom
of the Antichrist." The sixth chapter of Revelation speaks of the
rulers, who own practically everything here, and elsewhere, and their
prime supporters. It shows part of their future, if they persist in
warring against Christ.
The 15th verse reads: "Then the kings of the earth, the
princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty � hid in caves and among
the rocks of the mountains. They called to the mountains and the
rocks, �Fall on us and hide us from the face of Him Who sits on the
throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of their
wrath has come, and who can stand?� "
What caused Their wrath to be poured down on "the
mighty?" Read the verses that lead up to verse 15. It�s
condensed. Then read the rest of Revelation, or elsewhere in the
scriptures, where the same material is expanded.
God�s warning, in the Bible, to those who hate Minister Farrakhan
is "Touch not my anointed, do My prophets no harm."
Minister Farrakhan is not a prophet. He is anointed of God. Be
careful how you handle him. You wiser ones ought to school the others.
Some Jews seem to have "lost it," according to their
public words against Minister Farrakhan. If a person�s heart is
filled with evil, that person cannot come to peaceful terms with
another, regardless to what that other does to pacify, appease,
placate, mollify, propitiate or conciliate the other.
The way certain Jews have treated Jessie Jackson and others, who
apologized to them, after offending them, is an indication of what
they would do to Minister Farrakhan were he to bow to their insulting,
unfair, unjust, demeaning demands.
Can you blow out the light of the sun with your mouths? That tells
you what chances are of forcing Minister Farrakhan to bow to your evil
will.
There are Black writers, such as Pulitzer Prize-winning syndicated
columnist Mr. Clarence Page, who seems to be an otherwise intelligent
and fair-minded person, except when it comes to Minster Farrakhan.
After repeating evil statements Minister Farrakhan never made
and others totally taken out of context, Mr. Page later
states in his October 11th column, that "I want to be fair to
Farrakhan."
Mr. Page, and other Blacks like him, suffers from the same
inability as people like Mr. Abraham Foxman, of the ADL. Minister
Farrakhan is an example of brand new phenomena. He represents a brand
new reality whom you have never dealt with before: a truly free
Blackman, a world leader, who is guided by God Himself. He is also one
of the most loving human beings God ever created.
And, if you ever really take the time to learn Minister Farrakhan
you will find that his loving heart is the core instrument God is
using to produce the Million Family March and all that it
implies.
That by which you may best learn how to relate to him, is the very
instrument that you reject. It�s the scriptures. It�s God�s
words.
Mr. Page, you can expect a letter from me about your unfair
treatment of our innocent Brother, Minister Farrakhan.
Now, the following words are respectfully directed, especially to
Jewish scholars, a few of whom may read these words.
What I intend to state is in the Torah; the Talmud; the 10th and
the 40th surahs of the Holy Qur�an. It�s in certain words Jesus
spoke at the last supper, and it�s in Minister Farrakhan�s
"death-bed confession" made last year. And it�s elsewhere.
It all bears witness that he is one of the most trustworthy human
beings you will ever meet.
Those running for the highest offices of this land owe it to
themselves to really get to know him. But do it through unfiltered
means; not the ADL�s fabricated and filthy dossier on him.
Although Jews don�t see Jesus of 2,000 years ago as the
Messiah, and for excellent reasons, Jewish scholars are yet aware of
the following from the Gospel of John 13: 34,35.
Jesus said "Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must
love one another. By this all men will know that you are my disciples,
if you love one another." (NIV)
What was new about this commandment? What made this kind of
love new? Where is this new love to be found? What is
its root? Do Jewish scholars expect this commandment to be taught by
the Messiah when he arrives?
