My Letter to the JDL Regarding Their Attack On Will Smith

I had absolutely no problem understanding the tone, context and intent of Will Smith's commentary on Adolf Hitler. Will is a man of consummate effort at creating and maintaining a positive presence in a world where gangsta rappers use the power of the media to create a very dangerous fear in the minds of people with the power to call out the cattle cars on a group of people easily considerable as dangerous and unproductive. He has always erred towards the positive in all I have witnessed of him. You owe him an apology, if for no other reason than his own 'race legacy' of oppression and enslavement absolutely precludes that he would consider Hitler as anything other than a monster. There was no apology for Hitler in the statement I read as quoted by your source. There was, instead a very incisive understanding of the nature of evil.

Evil always has a 'good' reason to do what it does. Whether it's blinding oneself to the deadly oppression of apartheid while enriching self trading in gold and diamonds, or justifying the displacement of people from land they've lived on for thousands of years with euphemisms like "Manifest Destiny" or "God's promise to Abraham" three thousand to five thousand years ago. The ultimate test of good or evil is really too simple for Jews, Arabs, Christian, Blacks, Hindus or anybody else to misconstrue. If what you do to another causes suffering, disease, displacement or death, you are creating evil for that person or group of people, even if you have convinced yourself of the rightness of it. No righteous person will ever believe that Yahweh, Allah, Buddha, or Christ condones the suffering of even one person at the hands of another. Even if God tells a righteous man to do evil to another, that man in his best judgment would question just what 'God' was talking to him and tell him to do his own dirty work.

The correctness of Will Smith's comment bear scrutiny in this very instance, where-because of a largely emotional response at best, a pathological, post-traumatic stress reaction at worst-the JDL is willing to ruin his career, boycott his films and otherwise cause him harm. Having said all this, let's try the same quote and exchange the appellation "Hitler with the appellation "JDL":

Even the "JDL" didn't wake up going, 'let me do the most evil thing I can do today'," said Will. "I think They woke up in the morning and using a twisted, backwards logic, set out to do what they thought was 'good'. Stuff like that just needs reprogramming.

In case you don't know how to analyze stuff like this, let's try it again. IF you re-read the statement without the patented knee-jerk PSD reaction, [let's do it together] you will find something altogether different and altogether reasonable. Here I will highlight the operative words that indicate context, tone and intent. Follow me on this:

Even Hitler didn't wake up going, 'let me do the most evil thing I can do today'," said Will. "I think he woke up in the morning and using a twisted, backwards logic, he set out to do what he thought was 'good'. Stuff like that just needs reprogramming.

Now who is the idiot who found a statement anywhere in this, where Will Smith said anything about Hitler being good? Dammit! It's not there. Nowhere!

So now we have a clue about why human beings cannot-for the life of themselves-live without stupid, backward logic disasters like war! For all the vaunted genius of the race, and I mean the 'human race'-Jews included-thinking things through before nuking babies, and other non-involved parties of these vile reactionary behaviors, is not a strong suite, especially of the people we give such power.

I think the JDL should review this and other ridiculous positions it takes on such matters. In this case you are definitely wrong, in many others your posture comes off dangerously strident, not only for people you fear but for your own self image. A woman who screams stridently that every man who speaks to her is sexually harassing her will soon be considered a candidate for the psyche ward.

You owe Will Smith an apology. You owe yourselves to adjust the tone, intensity and perceptive skills of an organization which relies on it's credibility to accomplish a very necessary and worthwhile function in our world. It would also help if you evolved into the Human Defense League, maybe even the Life Defense League.

Man will always be the last to see his own psychoses. But when they are righteously illuminated, he has the responsibility to himself and all affected, to get to the bottom of it and heal it. Happy New Year! Peace On Earth!

Beyond Rhetoric! The Virtual NationBuilding Mindset!

Forgiveness is a powerful healing force. It opens the ability to distinguish the person from the hateful actions perpetrated by them and creates a context that re-humanizes them. I would dare to guess that every demon can be restored to their original state of grace by being offered and accepting forgiveness. Acceptance is an important part of this spiritual alchemy. No demon will experience the alchemical restoration of grace and the natural beauty that attends it without it because every demon must confront the misery of the atrocities it commits and suffer transformation by virtue of the fact that those stains like "Dorian Gray" alter the image it sees of itself, even if the visage of an angel is glamored over the underlying ugliness. Which is what glamor is. A spell, an enchantment. The problem for the demon is that it must forgive itself. It must realize that the judgment it fears is really already self-imposed and liberate itself of its own censure, for all creation comes from love and purity and truth and goodness. So forgiven must first be offered and accepted from within and without, before true healing returns to us our divine beauty and grace and charm. Every infant comes with this as a natural feature. Rarely is there a child born to men who doesn't shine with it.

Building The Virtual Nation Of African America requires that we understand a few simple truths and incorporate them into our thinking. The most important of which are:

1. While it always should have been, especially for people who'd sworn to have embraced The Lord Jesus Christ as their savior or Allah as their only master, slavery was not a personal attack on individual African Americans by white or arab people who'd been injured by them. It was business. It was wealth creation. The wealth of America and all of Europe and Arabia, all the money in every bank, every building, every church, every mosque, every farm, derives from the plunder of Africa, over thousands, not hundreds of years. Without the skills of Africans, the exploitation of the continent of "America" could not have happened.

2. The unseen enemies of Africans were also [unbeknown to them] the long time enemies of the scurvy rabble that endured the months, years at sea plying the trade, the hazardous treks through quite often hostile alien territory where it was very likely you would die trying with all their might to scratch out a living, achieve a life that made sense under the lash of this secret, malicious enemy. All the techniques of human submission to the will of supposed 'masters' had long been tried, tested and perfected on white, European serfs, peasants and the like via inquisitions, war and suffering for even more thousands of years. All the bait and switch tactics of evil deceivers had already undermined the intent of the Magna Carta[ the end to the enslavement of men] with concepts like indentured servant. All this while Africans were enjoying lifestyles of the rich and famous by comparison. Which is why to-very-day the enemy we, black and white see in each other has made our secret enemy laugh at how stupid we are, how easy it is to put us at each others throats while counting fat cash all the way to the bank. Which is why the genocide tools of crack and meth have been so effective, crack in black neighborhoods and meth in poor white neighborhoods with here and there a little crossover. All this while 20 million new mexican niggers and new mexican crackers replace the old, contentious, OSHA protected, rights educated work force for lower wages, and no benefits.

3. Knowing that the authors of racism devised it as a tool to confuse the issues and divert the righteous indignation of abused white labor onto a false path-abused black labor; knowing that truly all labor was being systematically robbed in the most heinous fashion of health, liberty and life and the pursuit of happiness, [for nobody found happiness in foundries, factories, mines or fields and most found grievous injury and death in exchange for the ridiculous pittance they received compared to the wealth they produced] strips away the glamor and lays bare truths that no polarization into black/white, democrat/republican, leftist/rightist or male/female can confuse: We have all been viciously used and deliberately confused about who the enemy is and what its agenda really is. "

Rev. 12:7 And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8 But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. 9 The great dragon was hurled down--that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

Rev. 12:10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say:

"Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ. For the accuser of our brothers, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down. 11 They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death. 12 Therefore rejoice, you heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury, because he knows that his time is short."

Facts prepare a foundation and the platform for forgiveness. Forgiveness cannot not be accomplished while lies continue to parade as truth. We have the facts. Forgiveness allows us to get down to the real work. Having forgiven we remove the burden vengeance would place on us, we humanize the demons so they no longer seem invincible and we get down to the real work. The real work is to create the means for neutralizing the mis-education of our selves and our children. The real work is to arm ourselves and our children, not with weapons of war but with weapons of knowledge. Practical knowledge that greets us on our desktop before we engage the world. Before the liars get to us with spun out versions of truth. Tools with which to engage the world wisely, not as lab rats trained to push buttons for treats but as thinking creatures armed with the tools for accurate assessments of our situation from day to day. This is what we create when we create the Virtual Nation Of African America.

We create this because our testimony is important for people now being victimized as we were, while thinking they're coming up in the world. This is the clear denotation of the euphemism "globalization".

We create this because we know we have outlived our usefulness to the enemies we made rich and powerful and must recreate how we create wealth. Must re-define what wealth is.

We create this because those who have been fooled to see us as their enemy must know that we have always been their brothers in suffering, in shared experience, in shared hope for our families and because they must see how wonderful our contributions are to the world, how often we have relieved their suffering with our unique gifts.

We create this to free ourselves and to free our 'enemies', for surely our enemy is enslaved and suffering far more than we are.

We create this to end the hungry hearts of our sons and daughters, our incarcerated and debilitated, for real leadership, sincere and selfless service to their their lives and the realization of true hope that things ultimately will justify so much pain and suffering.
