Exhibition Review
Abraham’s Progeny, and Their TextsBy EDWARD ROTHSTEIN
Published: October 22, 2010.
The sweep of the new exhibition at the New York Public Library — “Three Faiths: Judaism, Christianity, Islam” — is stunning. It stretches from a Bible found in a monastery in coastal Brittany that was sacked by the Vikings in the year 917, to a 1904 lithograph showing the original Temple Emanu-El on Fifth Avenue. It encompasses both an elaborately decorated book of 20th-century Coptic Christian readings and a modest 19th-century printing of the Gospels in the African language Grebo. There are Korans, with pages that shimmer with gold leaf and elegant calligraphy, and a 13th-century Pentateuch from Jerusalem, written in script used by Samaritans who traced their origins to the ancient Northern Kingdom of Israel.
The library’s Gutenberg Bible is here, as well as its 1611 King James translation. The first Koran published in English is shown, from 1649, along with fantastical images from 16th-century Turkish and Persian manuscripts in which Muhammad is pictured with other prophets, his face a blank white space in obeisance to the prohibition against his portrait.
Out of many, one. That could well be the motto of this ambitious exhibition. It focuses on “the three Abrahamic religions” — Judaism, Christianity and Islam — each of which takes as a forebear an “itinerant herdsman” of the Middle East, Abraham, who affirmed
belief in a single God. As the show puts it, Abraham rejected “the religions of antiquity with their plethora of gods, each imbued with a particular attribute, purpose and power,” replacing the many with the one.

-There it is, folks. The Marduk forgery used again to justify religio- political unity, "monotheism", traced back through Genesis to the Babylonian story of creation -- the condensation of a forgery.
In The Cosmic Code, p. 66f., Z.Sitchin elaborates George Smith's The Chaldean Genesis, 1876, and L.W. King The Seven Tablets of Creation, which establish correlation of the biblical seven days of creation and earlier Mesopotamian sources.. The narrative itself has been taken almost unanimously by the learned world as myth, or allegory (collective recollection, projected, of birth-trauma, Cosmic Battle for birth by Children of Water-Mother (note: "-Ki" in En.Ki (Sumer) "Whose Home is Water" (=>"Gaea" in Greek) "had splashed down to Earth in the waters of the Persian Gulf, who loved to sail the marshes in a boat, who filled the lakes with fish. They honored him by naming two constellations accordingly, those of the Waterman (Aquarius) and the Fishes (Pisces); in Sumerian times, he was depicted on cylinder seals and the oriests that oversaw his worship were dressed as Fishmen (Nimrod)." Sitchin does not relegate this to fantasy, but to collective memory of actual events that shaped earth's planetary system, planted life here, and bred a self-reproducing species (by an 'in vitro' evolutionary boost) to work the mines, till the fields, and serve them. .
Creation of "The ADAM" by The Elohim was repeated by YHWH (Ra/Marduk) 'creating' "The AB.RA.HAM" from Sumerian "Ab.r'm" in the story of Son-sacrifice (of Isaac). Apart from the name-change, Sumeriana origins of "AbRAham" are indicated in his Father Terah's ancestral home, Ur, associated with the cult of Ninurta ("Enlil's foremost son") in ancient Nippur, to which his sons returned for wives (Rebekka, Rachel). This followed preservation of tribal blood lines. Further, the Melchizedek priests at "Salem" (later "Jerusalem") Worshipped a "God Most High", translation of the amalgam "Elohim-YHWH:' which Abraham recognized by instituting the tithe. "High priest of the order of Melchizedek," having no earthly father and immune to death, is usd by the author of New Testament Hebrews ch. 8 for Jesus Christ, contrasted specifically with sons of Levi (the order of priests from Moses' brother Aaron). And John 8.58 quotes Jesus as asserting "before Abraham was, I AM." (also see Rev. 1.8). All in all, the Semitic interpolation of ancient history, as the Bible narrative from 1500 B.C. might be called, is a composite of a Babylonian forgery; Egyptian Pharoah knowledge by Joseph, Israel's son; Moses' gleanings from the Midianites, the events at Sinai, whatever they were, and David/Solomon's Jerusalem temple, with stones from the Melchizedek era: "Monotheism" derives from these sources. This 'faith' of "the Jews" as a earthly blood-line tribe is thus completed, from behind, from origins in Sumerian sky-god pantheon; a trove of already ancient knowledge from Egypt and the Sinai; the Melchizedek priests of (Jeru-) Salem, and Christ's crucifixion at Golgatha, the place of the Skull. "Monotheism" derived from these sources has always been an absurdity, intellectually. As soul-talk for the Completing Totality, the absurdity seques into The Incarnation, The Second ADAM.
The Return of Marduk/Ra/Yhwh obliterates the Incarnation, returnung the metaphysics of sign-use to The ADAM of E.Din.
Still striving to secure a DESTINY (<=orbit) for himself, as a son of En.ki, brother of Thoth (Egypt)/Ningishzidda (Sumer), MARDUK, personification of the collective unifying force of the 4000 year old pantheon, is returned, as a basis of union-without-unity of Judaism, Christianity, Islam,. Instead of reading the Enuma Elish, "When on High", every year to celebrate completion of one diurnal cycle and beginning (birth) of another, as they did in Babylon, we celebrate Christmas. The story of Marduk is that of humanity's Fetal Hero, slaying Mother Tiamat; slits her open like a flatfish and releases the children inside her belly. Her champion, Kingu, was also name of the Moon. Marduk's administration established the 360 + 5 day sun calendar, so His emergence circa 2000 b.c. .represented a victory of sun-calendar over moon-calendar cults in pre-Biblical Mesopotamia. The number of his mystic rank was 50..
If//when "ISRAEL's RIGHT TO EXIST" is used to justify bombing Iran, Marduke will have returned .

In the Mideast, No Politics but God’s (=>MARDUKE's)
BEIRUT — A line was uttered this month by Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hezbollah, that drew little notice in between his stentorian asides but said a great deal
about politics today for Israelis, Palestinians and the larger Arab world.
To tens of thousands of supporters gathered here to welcome President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran, Mr. Nasrallah declared that Iran’s Islamic republic “supports the ‘no’s’ that the Arabs declared at the time of late President Gamal Abdel Nasser in Khartoum before many abandoned them. Iran renews these ‘no’s’ along with the Arab nation.”
The “no’s” refer to a dramatic Arab summit in Sudan in 1967, when, after Israel’s crushing defeat of its neighbors, Arab states declared “no” to peace with Israel, “no” to negotiations with it, and “no” to recognition of it. Nasser, the Egyptian president, was the standard-bearer of a secular nationalism whose moment had ended with that war; today, Iran is, by choice or default, the scion of a generation of opposition politics that now alone bears an indelibly religious stamp." This is religious war against non-Jewish Semites and non-Semitic people in general by "The West".

Bishops at Meeting Urge Israel to End Its Occupation of Palestinian Territories
By RACHEL DONADIO
Published: October 23, 2010
VATICAN CITY — Bishops from across the Middle East on Saturday urged Israel to end its occupation of Palestinian territories so that a two-state solution could be found swiftly.
In a final communiqué at the end of a two-week-long meeting at the Vatican on the plight of Christians in the Middle East, the bishops also urged Israel not to use the Bible “to wrongly justify injustices,” apparently referring to Israel’s occupation of the West Bank and Gaza.
But in a news conference Saturday, the archbishop in charge of the committee that drafted the communiqué, Cyrille Salim Bustros, appeared to go further, saying the Bible did not justify a Jewish presence in Israel.
“The concept of the promised land cannot be used as a base for the justification of the return of Jews to Israel and the displacement of Palestinians,” he said. “Sacred scripture should not be used to justify the occupation by Israel of Palestine.”

Some Question Insistence on Israel as Jewish State
By ISABEL KERSHNER
Published: October 24, 2010
JERUSALEM — The more stridently Israel insists on Palestinian recognition of it as the nation-state of the Jewish people, the more adamantly the Palestinian leadership seems to refuse.
As a result, some senior Israeli officials are beginning to question the wisdom of the policy of their prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, who has made recognition of the legitimacy of the Jewish nation-state a prerequisite for any final agreement with the Palestinians.
****
Another senior Israeli minister, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he did not want to appear in conflict with the prime minister, said that the very act of asking for confirmation of Israel’s legitimacy “may raise questions and have the opposite effect” by putting it up for debate.
Many Jews in Israel and beyond consider it essential that they are recognized not just as members of a religion but also as a people with historic rights to a sovereign state in the Holy Land. The issue, they say, goes to the core of the conflict and will serve as a litmus test for Palestinian intentions.
_____ This shows that what cannot be debated is, in fact, the key issue.
5. The Cable News by-pass: omit discussion of Israel/Iran policy; push homosexual rights up the wazoo to the hilt.

Candidates Running Against, and With, Cable News
By BRIAN STELTER
Published: October 23, 2010
When Rupert Murdoch, the chief executive of the News Corporation, donated $1 million to the Republican Governors Association this summer, he may have given an even bigger gift to its opponents.
The influence of cable will almost certainly extend into the next presidential election, since a number of potential candidates for the Republican nomination are on the payroll of Fox News, including Mike Huckabee, who has a show on the weekends, and Sarah Palin.
The politicization of cable news has been a long time coming. Still, it was striking to see Glenn Beck of Fox News hold a religious-themed rally in Washington in August, and to see Ed Schultz, who is the host of programs on MSNBC and on radio, kick off a progressive rally there this month.
Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert of Comedy Central are staging a rally in Washington next Saturday, but Mr. Stewart says it will not be political.
The evolution of cable hosts from observers to outright opponents has sometimes been a source of frustration. Ms. Maddow said on her show this month, “For those of us who work here at MSNBC, one of the most surreal things about this particular election year, has been conservative politicians’ efforts to make us part of the elections.”
