A letter from a bigoted Baha’i !!!

A Baha’i has recently published a letter which is worthy to be thought about. This Baha’i person believes in the beliefs of this cult fanatically. The letter content includes a contradiction speech and action regarding the special position of this organization concerned with the recent incidences in Gaza and the Zionistic regime’s crimes. He has become unstable in his beliefs; so that he has decided to consult with the Baha’i community and the Organization heads to ask for answer and seeking for remedy for his consternation. As if, the obvious support of the Zionism crimes and their purposeful and incomplete news coverage by the Baha’i media have made the Baha’is themselves to oppose. It shows that everyone who possesses humanity a bit can’t stand these crimes and atrocities. Just like these Jewish people who disagree with the ruthless regime performance.

Without any explanation, we investigate the context of the letter:

Ya Baha-al-Abha

The letter addresses all awakened consciousness of the Baha’is especially my masters in the Universal House of Justice. The contradiction and conflict that I’ve encountered these days prompted me to write the letter. I hope to find a person help.

A few days ago, I searched in one of the sites of the Baha’i community called “Tasavi Hoqouq” decorated by seven friends’ photos who have been imprisoned in Iran. Surprisingly, I observed the different news concerning the conflict between Israelis and the Palestinians these days in the site. Apart from verifying the news, the supportive view of Israel by the site was important for me.

Today’s world is witnessing the apparent murder of Palestinian kids, pregnant women, old men and women. The public thoughts have reacted towards these strange measures. Additionally, my soul, as a Baha’i youth that I’ve grown up with the luminous teachings of this universal creed suffers pain due to what has happened in Gaza and I can’t accept Israelis’ justifications.

But the question is: The Excellency Abdul Baha has said: “Don’t plant anything in the heart garden but the love flower” or “All of us are the yield of the same tree and the leaves of the same branch”. Why have we proved that we aren’t bound to our rudimentary principles by supporting one side? Shouldn’t we observe the issue from the humane aspect and set aside the theological issues in its place? Do the Muslims have no right to doubt our sincerity and to believe proselytism against the Blessed Amr [creed]? Does this kind of position basically make each proselytism against the Blesses Amr more believable?

In one side, the world observe the massacre of the Palestinian kids, women and defenseless and people and on the other side Baha’i site’s whitewash. Thus, we ourselves have opened the way for the world conscience to judge.

However, I, as a Baha’i person who has been familiar with the exhilaration teaching of the Baha’i faith for years, has encountered with a conflict and contradiction now. The orders of the Excellency Abdul Baha are different from these kinds of racist views. There is a difference between the unity of humanity and the site view.

On the other side, this is question: Aren’t we accused of spying for Israel? Can’t this kind of support be assumed as a pretext for our faith enemies who are searching for a new excuse everyday?

I ask my masters in the great universal house of justice and the Baha’i leaders to answer this contradiction posed for me and for thousands of other Baha’is fairly: what’s the relationship between the massacre of innocent kids and the repeated recommendations and advises of the Excellency Abdul Baha concerned with behaving these innocent angels and the supportive view of the site belongs to the Baha’ism community?

Sincerely Yours
