Iraq Baited Into Invading Kuwait

Dear Leaders,

It was in late August or early September, of 1990, relatively soon after Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait, that I had one of the most unique experiences of my life. I had been praying as I walked near my Seattle home.Beseeching the Merciful to prevent the outbreak of killing between the U.S. and Iraq was the emphasis of my petitions.Without any indication that it would happen, a voice deep inside me clearly said, “The American administration planned for Iraq to invade Kuwait.”

I did not write down the statement at that moment so the precise words may have been slightly different.For instance, “wanted” may have been in the sentence instead of “planned”, but the message itself was unmistakable in its meaning. Even the remote possibility that anyone in the U.S. leadership would have hoped for Iraq to invade Kuwait had not previously entered my mind. The words so startled me that I stopped walking and exclaimed out loud, “Where did that come from?”

Soon after receiving the words, I concluded that ALLAH must have been their source.As time passed, I became even more convinced that the words were a type of revelation. They seemed to be what is mentioned in the New Testament as a word or knowledge. Many Christians believe that such revelations are infrequently given to believers along with the responsibility to use their messages wisely for the benefit of others.After receiving the words, pieces of evidence from various news reports consistently appeared to confirm their accuracy.

Throughout my life my natural inclination has been to trust the truthfulness of American leaders. If this message had not alerted me to apparent deception by our administration, I am embarrassed that I would have been swept along by the American administration’s propaganda barrage. Repeatedly, they have told us t hat President Hussein’s surprise invasion of Kuwait and his refusal to withdraw made him the only one responsible for the Persian Gulf War. This reasoning makes all of the horrible killing and destruction in the war and the massacre of Kurds after the war the total responsibility of Saddam Hussein with no U.S. culpability involved.Yet, there is much evidence that the U.S. exploited both the tiny nation of Kuwait and even the nation of Iraq.We used them to provide ourselves with a dramatic excuse to crush Iraq’s infrastructure and destroy her war making capabilities, without first exhausting the peaceful potential of third party mediation, pressure and persuasion.

When the inner words were first spoken to me I was already involved in writing about Islam, Christianity, and the Persian Gulf War.In June of 1990, you may have received a paper from me discussing recent Israeli injustice and also the Messiah’s victory over the evil purposes of certain Israeli leaders two thousand years ago.My prayer is that those papers, combined with the enclosed hypothetical interview with the highly honored Prophet of Islam, and the poem, The President’s Plan, will reveal truth from ALLAH.

Sincerely,

Abu Toma, Tom Griffith, USA
