Just that I need a replacement to speak for the underground army. It looks like it's going to be a martyrdom operation, because it seems like it's the only solution.

I apologize for losing my temper. I do not wish you to be killed, because killing never serves as the ultimate solution to any conflict. I can only say that I am not prefect, only God is perfect.

President Kennedy appealed to all Americans when he said “ask NOT what your country can do for you, ask what YOU can do for your country”. I try to live with this in my mind at all times.

The Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King Jr. stated a profound truth when he gave his “I have a dream” speech. To paraphrase his idea “all people should be judged NOT by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character”. I also try to live with this in my mind at all times.

The American ideal is that ALL people are created equal under God, and I am on a quest to help realize this ideal for ALL people, regardless of their religion or skin color. I believe that God is pleased with this ideal, and this is why America has succeeded so fantastically in such a short time.

I know what my duty is as a child of God, as a human being, and as American. My duty is to help ALL freedom loving people be free from oppression and tyranny, so they may prosper and worship as God commands them to worship.

I am engaged in a quest to ensure justice and fairness for ALL people and ALL religions, in accordance with the will of God, and this ideal.

Jihad is an honorable word, in an honorable religion, even though it has been hi-jacked by fanatics IMO. There is no equivalent word in English, but this is precisely what my quest should be called. I am expending ALL of my effort in the pursuit of this goal, even though my stamina and skills may be inadequate to the task. God and conscience are my guide, and no power on earth can force it to be otherwise.

God willing, there will be more people of ALL religions and ALL colors, living safely in freedom when I am finished, than when I started.
