The Honorable Silis Muhammad, CEO of the Lost Found Nation of Islam has written an open letter to President Obama, Martin E. Dempsey and the Pope of Rome, detailing our plan for America and its Afrodescendants.
I have included attachments of the letter which hopefully will be read and passed on to our people.
Sincerely,
Raushana Karriem,

Personally, I applaud the sincere efforts of our African descended brothers and sisters to address our dilemma. We have endured chattel slavery, been reduced to animals, worked for centuries without compensation, "freed" after the Civil War with only the clothes on our backs, turned out like released animals in a zoo. We have survived the Black Codes, segregation, discrimination, and modern racism.
Why?
No one seems to ponder this question - why?
The answer is we are a diseased, afflicted and sick people because our ancestors deliberately turned their backs to the Most High and refused to obey His commandments after entering into a sacred everlasting covenant with Him. The Most High endured this rebellion for almost 2,000 years. Finally, after our ancestors orchestrated the murder of His Son, Yahshua, He had had enough and He allowed the enemies of our ancestors to conquer their land, enslave the people, and mis-treat and abuse them for another 2,000 years. We, their descendants, continue to be afflicted by our oppressor.
Today, as we near the end of this sorry period of our history, the intense fire of our affliction has purified some of us to the point of humbly recognizing the reason why we are in this deplorable, sick state. Looking back upon our long history of aborted attempts to unify our people, we should have come to the conclusion long ago; a man will never save us.
We are not dealing with a military problem or a political problem or an economic problem. Nevertheless, our most astute and learned brothers and sisters continue to focus on these areas for solutions to our deplorable state of affairs.
Brothers, the root cause of our problems is SPIRITUAL and cannot be solved by any man, woman or child on earth. Thus, the root cause of our failures to come up with solutions to our problems - we are looking in all the wrong places.
I would challenge this forum of learned brothers and sisters to read carefully Deuteronomy 28:15-68 where the Most High warned His people, Israel, of the curses that would come upon them should they choose to ignore His commandments. God foretold capture, iron yokes put upon necks, taken in ships to far away lands by a people from the end of the earth whose language they would not understand. A people fierce and merciless to young and old alike. These people would sell them into slavery as well as their children. Their women would be raped by these people. They would be forced to labor hard while hungry, naked, thirsty and in want of everything. They would build homes, but not be allowed to live in them, to plant crops but not be allowed to eat them, tend livestock, but not be allowed to eat them. They would be an international laughingstock, a joke all over the world. They would be plagued by sickness and disease continually. They would even suffer from some brand new diseases. They would live in constant fear because they had no assurance of life. There would be no one to protect or defend them. Their bodies would be left out in the open for animals to consume. They would work hard to only make their oppressor wealthy and the hardships would cause some to go mad. Even the foreigner would live among them and surpass them. The foreigner would be the head and Israel would be the tail. NO MAN WOULD SAVE THEM.
Worse of all, they would be misled into false worship. Worshipping idols of wood and stone.
Who, in all of human history, has experienced ALL of the features of this prophecy?
If this prophecy applies to us, do you really think that we are going to overcome the curse of God until He is good and ready to lift the curse from us? Do you think we are going to do something God has already told us we will never do - FREE OURSELVES?
Then, what hope is there for us? Genesis 15:13, 14 tells us that our enslavement will not be forever. God tells us that it would last for 400 years. Meanwhile, the Most High says that He is judging the nation that has been afflicting us. Finally, the Most High states that we will leave this place with great substance.
Who is the Most High going to lead out of this bondage? How will He identify His people?
Another question is: Does anyone have a more compelling explanation for our long, frustrating history of suppression, slavery, domination, distrust and disunity?
I challenge anyone on this forum to present another, more compelling explanation for the strange self-destructive, self-defeating thinking and conduct that we, as an African people, have demonstrated for the past 150 years of "freedom" in this country. In addition, detail your practical and applicable strategy for freeing our people.
I will patiently await responses from our wise ones. Shalom, my dear brothers and sisters.
We have arrived at our destination. It took 500 years. Some of us arrived in Europe. Others arrived in China, India, Russia but we arrived in Caribbean, South America and the United States. Our ancestors have made it clear in their stories and wrtings that we should go home in Africa but we say where in Africa?, but we have managed to hand around since 1863 and now we are more than glad to say that we are happy. Some of us, especially Richard Allen and others ventured into the worshipping places of the Europeans and were rejected only for us to turn around and join the Muslims. We were told that our religion is opposite those of the Arabs and Europeans but why are we so much in love with Jesus and Mohammed? It is because these two people were Africans turned Europeans since the Arabs and Europeans have take the best of our able bodied men and women, so they have taken our Prophets. They did not know of Okomfo Anokye, they would have stolen him too. We are hundred percent Westernized and Arabized. There is not but or if on this. Except our skin which forever make us origianal Africans. Who then tells us to go back to whence we came from. MARCUS GARVEY? Yes, when the newly arrived Africans gave the name "Akata" to reflect their own people who had faced the willderness of the West to pave way for the lotto winners of the state department to come to US they have distanced themselves from us. We are now two different peoples instead of one. Nobody canchange us. We are one people. The African people
