1\velfth Friday Sennon Feb 08, 1991 murderer and, under psychological stress, she kept washing her hands, repeatedly, saying that her hands smell of blood. In her own words: "Here's the smell of the blood still, all the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand" However the case of President Bush is a little different. His hands are stained with the blood of Muslim Arabs. I assure him that the stench on his hands would continue to haunt the U. S. and its allies forever. All the perfume of the world would neither be enough to transform this bitter odour into fragrance. As to his "Dream of Peace" which he proclaims so loudly, is nothing but a reflection of Macbeth's soliloquy. Macbeth tries to sleep but his sleep has vanished due to the pricks of his conscience. He considers his crime so unpardonable that, in his agitated state of mind, he cannot sleep any more. He imagines that he has heard a voice saying: Methought I heard a voice cry, "sleep no more, Macbeth does munher sleep" In Scottish accent murder is spoken as murther. This, in fact, was a psychological reaction of strain on his nerves. His pitiable state of mind cannot be expressed in better words. He thinks that he had murdered his own sleep, so how could sleep come to him now? With a little modification this may well be applied to the dream of President Bush, "Me thought I heard a cry, peace no more, America does murder peace" I, too, hear the voice of a crier who is saying that this planet will never see peace again. If his dream materializes then I can say with certainty that peace would never return to this continent. The United States has massacred PEACE forever! What would happen in its aftermath? What can we do about it? What advice can we render to those nations who have advanced so far towards destruction? How can we get them back? I will address this topic in my future sermon. I want to complete this subject as quickly as possible, so that I may revert to my real and lasting subject of educating the Ahmadis about how they can stay focused in their prayers so that they may achieve an eternal pleasure in their prostrations before the Almighty God. 232
