*Mr. X & CHAOS in the UNIVERSE: In early/mid January 2012 a man I know as Mr. X, who speaks Persian, called me & announced that he just came back from killing an Iranian scientist with a bomb. Is Mr. X crazy or is he a murder? In mid January Mr. X was sexually aggressive with me as he whispered in my ear: I hope no one kills you. Was this sexual aggression just a natural course of violence perpetrated by Mr. X, consistent with & following his real or fantasy assassination? Mr. Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan a young Iranian scientist lost his life, I only lost my dignity & my spirit. Neither Mr. Roshan nor I were armed & yet we were both victims of Mr. X’s alleged violence. Also, by February it became clear that Mr. X also defrauded me of a large amount of money. In conclusion, Mr. X left a path of misery behind himself in early 2012, including: Murder, sexual violence, fraud & deceit. So how do I make sense of these events in my life & other’s lives who have been allegedly harmed by Mr. X? Strangely, Mr. X professes to be honorable, patriotic & law abiding. Mr. X rallies against bullying & he advocates for victims of domestic violence. Mr. X holds his dog so gently & yet he was not gentle with me – nor was he gentle with his alleged victim Mr. Roshan. In some of my last few phone conversations with Mr. X -- he talked about the latest sexy music videos & buying some race horses. Mr. X firmly told me to get tough regarding my new poverty. How can a person be so infatuated with celebrities & the rich & famous -- & yet cause so much chaos & tragedy in the universe -- & be so righteous about it? On a larger scale, What type of Government sanctions murders & terrorism in the name of Freedom & democracy? -- & fails to Apologize to the world for the invention & use of Nuclear bombs on people? (1) It is so easy to justify Violence & to be so bold about it. Sadly, Enemies are code words used to justify Narcissism & greed and Imperialism & hegemony.
*DEDICATION: I dedicate this essay to Mr. Roshan who was 32 years old & who was married with a young son. I apologize to Mr. Roshan for the violence done to him by someone on a motorcycle who threw a magnetic bomb at his vehicle & killed him. (2)
Salaam. Shalom. Shanti. Peace.
