True love is nothing but drinking the wine of eternity
In this state, the soul finds life only by dying, but I wanted things in reverse!
I thought, “First I I will know you, then I will die.”
He replied, “Whoever knows me never dies.”

Whatever you have been given are the wares of the life of this world, but what is with Allah is better and more lasting for those who have faith and who put their trust in their Lord.

Nuremberg: A Lesson for US Imperialists
Friday, June 2nd, 2006Noam Chomsky wrote an article a couple of weeks ago entitled “A Just War? Hardly“, in which he quotes US Supreme Court Justice Robert Jackson, chief prosecutor for the U.S. at the Nuremberg Trials. His message is a clear fortelling of the imperialism in which the U.S. is now engaged, in concert with Britain and Israel.
“If certain acts of violation of treaties are crimes, they are crimes whether the United States does them or whether Germany does them, and we are not prepared to lay down a rule of criminal conduct against others which we would not be willing to have invoked against us.”
“We must never forget that the record on which we judge these defendants is the record on which history will judge us tomorrow. To pass these defendants a poisoned chalice is to put it to our own lips as well.”
