Jihada: The Lost Scriptures Read online

  They now had their ‘Second Coming ‘; --- so too had the Christian God.

  The two Islamic disciples had failed their God and were willingly sacrificed at the Alter of Allah. There would be no place in Paradise for them.

  ------

  The child was never given a name; he was simply known as the JIHADA, - as was spoken by Allah directly to Mohammad, and as was written in the LOST SCRIPTURES.

  He was soon to be moved to the Middle East, where word of his birth was already known. Doubters of the Islamic faith renewed their allegiance to Allah, and plans for the Islamic takeover of the world were set in motion. There was a date. That date was the JIHADA’S 16th birthday. From that point, all others were to be eliminated; the earth was to be cleansed of the Infidel.

  There would only be Islam

  Allahu Akbar.

  Word of the JIHADA’S magical powers were secretly leaked to the Islamic world. His followers believed him to be the reincarnation of the Prophet Mohammad; he spoke directly to Allah; on earth, he was the voice of Allah. He would unite all the peoples of Islam throughout the world.

  His 16th birthday was to be the day of the Intifada; the day when the implementation of the LOST SCRIPTURES was to begin.

  The Islamic world readied itself for the great sacrifice to Allah. Sixteen years of preparation had resulted in Muslims taking office in many of the great seats of power throughout the world. Allah accepted that they needed to make sacrifices in order to conceal their Muslim identity. Allah forgave them for praying to him only in secret. He forgave them for consuming alcohol, for entering Christian churches, for even marrying non Muslims in non Islamic ceremonies.

  The people made these sacrifices for their God, knowing that soon, they would be with him in Paradise.

  Eight billions people of all religions would be going to neither Paradise nor Heaven; neither place existed; they were merely the subliminal fantasies of the “God Gene”, - a genetic mutation implanted by the Gods into the DNA of the dominant species on all planets throughout the universe. The God Gene simply enabled the Gods to exercise control and compliance.

  Neither Allah nor the Christian God lived in either Paradise or Heaven.

  They were identities without form, - nothing else; - they were from the Planet of the Gods.

  CHAPTER 8

  The Meeting 2

  The meeting at the white house had been temporarily suspended as the men sipped their coffee or water: President Steinberg was by now totally composed, secure in the knowledge that for the first time in his Presidential tenure, he had full control over his defense chiefs. He had never really been angry at the Admiral; it was no more than an effective piece of acting in order to establish an uncompromising pecking order, and to re-enforce his alpha male dominance; physically, intellectually, and by virtue of his Presidential stature as Commander in Chief.

  Two men in the room had not been fooled; both Theodore Warburton the President’s personal secretary, and Mario Molinari, the President’s own personal CIA mole knew the reason for his theatrics; what was about to be disclosed had to appear to be a surprise to everyone, but not the President, who had to show that his finger was well and truly on the pulse, otherwise his authority would be seriously undermined.

  The President put down his coffee cup, and slapped his open hand on the table a couple of times before speaking, ‘ What you are about to hear gentlemen, is a fairy story of such immense improbability, and of such a preposterous nature, that you will scarcely believe your ears: at any time you will probably expect to wake up from the dream; the dream however could possibly turn into a nightmare, and you will not wake up from it EVER, if we do not find a solution: -----no one will. We appear to be entering a period of uncertainty that is beyond our control, both politically and militarily’.

  The military men sitting around the table felt affronted. What exactly did he mean, “no one will”? “Beyond their control militarily”? Was he implying that THEY, with their army, their navy, and their air force were no longer effective,—unfit for purpose? The military might of the United States was unparalleled in history. Never before since the human race first set foot on the planet, had a nation had the capability of destroying the entire world without sustaining one single casualty on its’ home soil. No country on earth would even dare challenge them---they were the law on this planet---everyone knew that: -- everyone other than their own President it seemed.

  The President continued, ‘Gentlemen, I am now going to hand over this meeting to my secretary Theodore, and together with Mario, they will hopefully put us all in the picture. Personally I am going to remain in the background until they have completed their presentations. I ask you to respectfully do the same. I promise you that from the little that I know, remaining silent, even attentive will be difficult. Theodore, would you like to begin’?

  Theodore gave his presentation to his disbelieving audience. He told them of the rumored LOST SCRIPTURES of Islam, as dictated to the Prophet Mohammad by Allah himself, and of how they foretold of the Second Coming; a reincarnation of the prophet Mohammad. He told them of the Prophesy; - the Prophesy that demanded the disciples of Islam rise up and destroy the Infidel until only Muslims survived;- only Muslims must walk on the Earth of Allah.

  ‘What a load of bullshit hocus pocus’ Admiral Black interrupted.

  Air Marshal Cunningham and General Woodcock nodded their agreement and approval at the Admiral’s comment.

  Theodore smiled at the Admiral and continued. He told them the story of Mary and Kevin Jacobs and of how on a vacation in Egypt to see the pyramids and the historical sites and monuments along the Nile, they were hoping to buy a child for adoption. Mary had mysteriously been taken ill, and had spent 3 days in a coma in hospital: 6 weeks later, back home in New York State, she had been through a reoccurrence of the illness, and as she recovered, had discovered that she was pregnant with twins. Kevin Jacobs was sterile; it had to have been a miracle, there was no chance of any form of normal conception. Her doctors were initially skeptical as to her fidelity, before finally concluding that there must have been a rape during her coma; there was simply no other explanation.

  The LOST SCRIPTURES had predicted the exact time and date of the birth more than 1500 years before the event. ---The Arab world had kept watch on the Jacobs, and when the time was right, they had made their move on the little log cabin in the Catskill Mountains, little knowing of the second twin. There had been no mention of a twin boy in the LOST SCRIPTURES, only those of a second child; they were the words of Allah. Some other force had recognized Allah’s intent and had interfered with his plans.

  ‘Theodore’ the President asked. ‘Are we really looking at the Prophet Mohammad here, because if we are, we are also looking at potentially two and a half, maybe 3 billion people who want to make war on us, either as suicide bombers or using conventional or even nuclear weapons. If the Muslims think that he is here, back on Earth, 1500 years after his last appearance, they will be queuing up to blow themselves to smithereens. Christ, almost every year since 9/11 we have had to double our spending on homeland security just to keep a lid on it, and over the last few years, even that hasn’t been enough to prevent the bastards from blowing us and themselves to fucking pieces.

  How long will it be before we follow Europe, especially Britain, down the road to total anarchy? It isn’t possible to walk to church in England now without some Muslim bastard trying to blow your ass off or stab you; they are even beheading people in the streets in broad fucking daylight’.

  Theodore shook his head before speaking. ‘I am not too sure that we are talking about the Prophet Mohammad himself sir, he is known as the JIHADA in the SCRIPTURES, but we have to face the possibility that we are dealing with someone of extraordinary powers, suffice to say that all of Islam believe him to be the second coming of the Prophet. Mario and his department in the CIA have been monitoring the situation since the rumors first surfaced; that Sir was almost 16 years ago’.

 
; ‘ I have never heard so much crap and bullshit in all my life’, Admiral Black butted in. ‘I am sorry Mr. President , but I think that I am speaking for the other defense chiefs here when I say that we are going down a completely blind alley. WE deal in reality, not religious mumbo jumbo. We should be spending our time looking for whoever is responsible for these problems and bomb the fuck out of them’.

  ‘You have my full Presidential approval to do just that Admiral’, smiled the President, who was expecting and waiting for such an outburst; ‘exactly how do you propose to do it? Our planes go where ever they want to - our cruise missiles explode on take- off, and our nuclear missiles disappear whenever the mood takes them. That is the whole point of this meeting Admiral; we need to find out who is targeting us, how they are doing it, and how to counter it. Theodore, thank you for your presentation, I think it is time for Mario to bring us up to date with the missing bits; time to fill in a few of the blanks’.

  Mario Molinari pushed back his chair and cleared his throat with a nervous cough before speaking. Mario was third generation Italian who had worked for the CIA for over 20 years since leaving school; still single, rumors circulated about his sexuality. Mario did not worry about the rumors; one snap of his fingers and a never ending supply of women came running; he had the charm and swarthy good looks that seemed to attract the more sophisticated women in society.

  At the beginning of his CIA career, he had at one time seriously considered becoming a Gigolo; every young man’s fantasy, but his strict religious upbringing would have cast him well away from all family ties. The Molinari family had always been extremely secretive about their religion; never the less, they were deeply religious.

  Being single suited Mario perfectly; Mario was married to the job. Chasing and catching up with the JIHADA had become his passion – his obsession. He had contacts all over the Arab world, and whenever sightings were reported, Mario was on the first plane out. Not on one single occasion had he even come close to the JIHADA; he was so elusive that there were times when he considered going back to his desk job; times when he doubted that he even existed. Mario also spent a considerable amount of time in Israel; his life as a double agent was never even considered by his CIA superiors; his work of tracking and keeping tabs on the JIHADA rendered him both indispensible and invulnerable.

  Of one thing Mario was sure; with each passing year; the powers of the JIHADA were increasing. During the child’s infant years, tales started to emerge of a Prophet Child that could lift items into the air with a single glance. The CIA were soon on the case, and Mario was the assigned operative.

  Years passed, and tales of the young Prophet’s exploits began to circulate across the Muslim world. Insurrection followed insurrection, -- atrocity followed atrocity. Shia Muslim killed Sunni Muslim and Sunni killed Shia; each one claiming it to be in the name of the JIHADA – in the name of Allah; theirs was the only true Muslim faith. Despite these Shia/Sunni differences, the Muslim world was now slowly beginning to come together: they were starting to prepare for their total world domination and control. The time was near.

  The new Saladin was among them.

  Soon, the JIHADA would make his move and fulfill the destiny of Islam – The Will of Allah – The Prophesy of the LOST SCRIPTURES.

  Mario told all of this to the hushed room; he also told them of Michael, the JIHADA’S twin brother.

  Theodore again took to the floor. He spoke quietly and slowly as he explained how the powers of the JIHADA could not be contained, controlled, neutralized or countered by conventional means. The JIHADA had the power of Allah behind him – he had the power of his God.

  ‘Can he be reasoned with’? Asked the President, knowing perfectly well what the answer would be.

  ‘No Sir’, Theodore replied, ‘The LOST SCRIPTURES leave no room for maneuver or compromise; they are a fait accompli; they are as absolute as the laws of physics. Perhaps that is a bad simile sir, the JIHADA’S actions and powers do not conform to the laws of physics; those laws only apply to this planet, they are not the laws of the universe; that is why we cannot stand against him conventionally.

  ‘What you are saying then Theodore is that no matter what we do, we are completely at his mercy. Every weapons system that we have in our arsenal is of no use whatsoever; are you also implying that he can walk away from a nuclear explosion; is he invulnerable, omnipotent even’? General Woodcock spoke for the first time in the meeting. Woodcock rarely spoke at meetings of his equals and superiors, preferring to allow all points to be made before offering his own always perceptive comments.

  ‘No General, I am not saying any of those things directly, we simply do not know the limits of his powers, what I will say though is that we are working on ways to counter them. The President has asked me not to say what they are at this point though, there is too much at stake’.

  The President once again took control. ‘I think that we will call a halt at this point gentlemen: We can all go away and think about what this meeting has been all about, and what we have learned. Please take the presentations of both Theodore and Mario seriously, these are worrying times; in the meantime, I suggest that we continue to explore every other possibility; like everyone else, I am extremely skeptical of anyone that can supposedly change the laws of physics. Regardless of what we believe however, not one word of today’s meeting must leave this room.

  Thank you gentlemen, we will reconvene as and when appropriate, so please make yourselves available at a moment’s notice; wherever you may be in the country, ensure that a fast plane is always on standby and easily accessible’.

  With that, the President of the United States stood up to leave the room.

  Everyone else stood; - the military men stood to attention.

  -------

  As every one left the room, Theodore and Mario Molinari stayed behind; they had things to discuss. The State of Israel was now ready to begin phase two of the planned CIA operation. President Steinberg was completely in the dark of things to come; his Presidential predecessor not so; he had been Jewish and had been working and planning alongside Mario and Theodore for many years whilst still in office. Out of office, he was still heavily involved in much of the planning and subterfuge.

  President Steinberg hated the Jews with an all consuming passion; many of his distant German relatives had been former Nazi SS men; many of whom had been executed following the Nuremberg war trials.

  Mario was of Jewish ancestry; his family had fled Nazi Germany shortly after ‘Crystal Nacht’, leaving much of the family fortune behind them, escaping with only a handful of well concealed diamonds, and changing their family name as they entered the US.

  Mario had no love of the power and dominance that the United States had always wielded over Israel; little did the Americans know that it was no more than a military dominance, a tenuous military dominance at that. Israel could destroy the whole fabric of the country without firing a shot; she controlled the country’s finances AND their Cruise Missiles. She had also planted a controllable virus into the launch mechanism of America’s nuclear missiles; none would ever leave the launch pad if Israel so wished.

  In the short term, Israel had acceded to the American demands to return former Palestinian territory. This had been barren scrub land, suitable for grazing a few goats, nothing else. With the discovery of the massive underground water supply, Israeli farmers had turned the land into prime, pristine and fertile agricultural land. Israeli agriculture now supplied much of the food demands of the Arab nations; her biggest trading partner being Iran. Iranian oil now flowed freely into Israel, and in return, Iran was rewarded with favorable rates on all agricultural products. There was now a mutual understanding and respect between the two countries; by working together, they made progress; as enemies, their growth and world influence would be severely impaired.

  Neither country flaunted their different religions; Iran made all the right noises regarding the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian homelands; this
appeased the Arab nations; she did however recognize that in a world that was becoming less and less dependent on oil, Israeli technical expertise and finance was far more beneficial than any alliance or alignment with the technically backward Arab nations.

  Israel resented having to return this fertile agricultural land to the Palestinians; they were and always had been a peasant like and warring nation. Israel denied the Palestinians access to their underground water supplies, and soon, the land returned to desert scrubland again, suitable only for grazing goats.

  Israel was now ready to reclaim the land that had rightfully been hers for over 4000 years. The bomb proof shelters throughout Israel were now completed, and the Palestinian bound missile primed and directionally programmed.

  Israel was ready and now wanted a war with her neighbors. Israel did not want Arab neighbors. She wanted and had planned for them to initiate a first strike in order to convince the world that without a nuclear response, the entire nation and Kingdom of David would cease to exist.

  In the eyes of all Israelis, Palestine was not Palestinian land. Palestine was the PROMISED LAND; promised to the Israelites by the Christian God himself. Moses had led his people over 4000 years before from their slavery in Egypt; he had crossed the Red Sea that had destroyed the Egyptian army; he had fought and won many battles before finally settling his people in Israel.

  History has always been written by the victors; this history was enshrined in the Old Testament. Jesus, the one true prophet, had died on the cross in Israel, and now, those anti Semitic Americans had forced the right full occupiers and owners of the land to hand much of it over to a semi nomadic, warring race that no other country in the Middle East would even allow to settle on their land.
