We are still victims of tyrants and of
the tyranny of our own ignorance and complicity. We are engaged in
bloody Armageddon, but are mostly unconscious of who the enemy is,
what weapons they are using, and what it is that they are after.
Some question why things are so bad, why the “good” seem so helpless
and why they seem to end in early graves?
The answer to this and to our overall
predicament can be provided by anyone conversant with the principles
of the game of chess. A chess master will give his student audience
four pieces of advice from which we can learn. He will say that the
first thing that is needed is a sense of patience. He will say next
that a sense of timing is essential.
Then comes one’s knowledge of the
opponent, and finally, the clincher, the willingness to make any and
all sacrifices to win. Now, can we see why we have the problems we
do? The good have no patience, no sense of timing, zero knowledge of
the opponent, and because of their inherent morality, are not able
to make the necessary sacrifices. Compare this to the enemy.
They have endless patience, with
strategies lasting millennia; they have an excellent sense of
timing, moving in gradual stages while planning a long way ahead;
they have intense knowledge of us; and most importantly, they are
not the least bit hesitant to make any and all sacrifices that are
needed.
In fact, that is exactly what they have
been doing.
Rise up!
like lions after slumber In
unvanquishable number
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which in your sleep had fallen on you
Ye are many – and they are few
