The Gulf Crisis and New World Order — Page 19

The Gulf Crisis & The New World Order called "horse-trading". What was happening was indeed horse-trading but one wondered what was the origin of this term which meant the purchasing of votes of the Members of Parliament to gain political advantage. But looking at the behaviour of the U. S. government one can easily see that the idea must have originated in America, for the way they have purchased votes in the United Nations is clearly horse-trading. They have indeed done a great deal of horse-trading. So if the United Nations has degenerated into an Organization which can be easily bought by rich nations to serve their interests then it becomes a heinous crime. Indeed it is suicidal and it robs this Organization of International trust for ever. " (February 15, 1991) "It is sheer emotionalism and ignorance that you should hate the British or hate the Americans. These are only the ravings of madmen. Hate can never triumph in this world. It is the high virtues which eventually emerge as victorious. The code of conduct of the Holy Prophet'" succeeds, because that is the conduct of the best behaviour. If the Muslims were to adopt that code of conduct it would be an exemplary charter for the whole world. Such a code of conduct is invincible. No power on earth can eclipse the code of conduct of the Holy Prophet Muhammad sa. s. So revert to that code of justice and adopt that precept, then the entire problems of this world can be resolved, and that genuine new revolution can start, creating a heaven on earth! If you do not accept that, then you would continue to fight and this world would continue to face trials and tribulations. " (February 15, 1991) 19
