Justice for All

President Obama ratcheted up his language against Iran’s leadership on Saturday, in a statement that invoked the American civil rights movement as an analogy for what was unfolding on the streets of Tehran.

Had it been that Barack Obama was not elected president there would have been chaos throughout the streets of America. The Bal Shem Tov, a Jewish European Mystic from a few centuries ago explains how self love interferes with good judgment and how much easier it is to look from afar and proclaim judgment. Having courts of justice is one of the Seven Commandments handed down from Noah 4000 years ago for the world to abide.

Justice is a process and it is important to let the process proceed without outside intervention who sees what happens from the outside, but can not what is within. The core of Iran is the Koran and not democracy; the courts which upheld the election must be honored just as America honored the stolen election of George Bush who eventually was seen for who he is leading to the election of Barack Obama.

The Cabala explains that justice only occurs after the entirety is revealed–for that reason the ultimate judge is God who see it all.
