“I am Cyrus. King of the world. When I entered Babylon… I did not allow anyone to terrorize the land… I kept in view the needs of people and all its sanctuaries to promote their well-being… I put an end to their misfortune. The Great God has delivered all the lands into my hand; the lands that I have made to dwell in a peaceful habitation…. . .When my soldiers in great numbers peacefully entered Babylon… I did not allow anyone to terrorize the people… I kept in view the needs of people and all its sanctuaries to promote their well-being… Freed all the slaves… I put an end to their misfortune and slavery (referring to the Jews and other religious minorities). The Great God has delivered all the lands into my hand; the lands that I have made to dwell in a peaceful habitation… “
"I have no religion, but if I were to choose one, it would be that of Shariati's."

My Lord, grant me success in struggling during failure, in having patience in disappointment, in going alone, in Jihad without weapons, in working without pay, in making sacrifice in silence, in having religious belief in the world, in having ideology without popular traditions, in having faith (Iman) without pretensions, non-conformity without immaturity, beauty without physical appearance, loneliness in the crowd, and loving with the beloved knowing about it.

While the battle between Obama and Clinton continues, and may continue for a while, it is critically important we start getting out the message about McCain. We don’t want the only story line to be about Democrats fighting.
And thanks to Joe Scarborough, we now have a brilliant McCain campaign slogan: Less Jobs. More Wars.
For two months, we’ve been trying to come up with a good name for our Issues ‘08 campaign, and there it is! Jason, Leda, Philip and Lissette jumped into action and put together these two fantastic short videos.
We need $100,000 immediately (like in the next week), so we can continue making these high impact videos, full-time, around the clock.
