All illumined predictions render themselves obsolete. Turn that equation around to 2% vs. 98%. -------------------- From Illumination Canoga Park, CA 2-6-98 *Nuclear Probabilities* B: Number two. Q: Greetings from down under, Bashar. B: Down under what? Q: From Australia. B: Oh, all right, yes. Remember that that is all relative. Q: Yes, I know, but there are many people there that do send their love. B: Oh, all right, thank you, love in return. Q: Good, thank you. Can I ask you now about what is happening in Iraq? B: You can ask anything you want; whether I will tell you is another matter. Q: Would you be able to explain what is happening there? B: Can you be specific? There are many things happening in the area on your planet that you call Iraq. Q: Well okay, I hope I don't sound a bit simple, but I've noticed, since being in this country the last three weeks, the entire focus in the news has been on the affairs of President Clinton and the girl. And it seems to me like it's a full on blanket of attention on this when all the time something is happening in Iraq. And why, at this time, do they have the Prime Minister of England here along with the president? B: Right. Q: It feels to me that there's something much bigger going on. B: Yes. Q: It feels to me as if the entire population has been given a blanket on the news to do with this Monica, what ever her name is, and so on. B: Not really by their choice. Q: No, no, no, but I just don't understand. Could you give me a greater overview on exactly what it is.... B: Do you mean is there a covert operation being planned to remove someone from their life? Q: Yes. B: Yes. Q: Could you elaborate on that please? B: No, do you understand what I'm saying? Q: Is that Saddam Hussein you're referring to? B: Yes. Is that what you wanted to hear? Q: I suppose, I'm open to hearing anything. B: Oh well, all right, it is being discussed. It is not yet being seriously considered, but it is being discussed. Let us say, out of about three possibilities it is having a high degree of consideration, but it has not yet been decided. Q: Okay, thank you very much, Bashar. B: Does that help you? Q: Yes, thank you. B: It is connected, of course, to many other things that will unfold, or are unfolding around your world, since your world is now inter-connected in a very strong way more than it used to be. It is connected to the potential of many other kinds of events that may or may not yet unfold. Q: Will there be a Third World War? B: No, not as such. But there is still a great possibility for what you would call an isolated terrorist nuclear strike. Q: Is this encoded in the Bible? B: It is, as are all probabilities in every ancient text that exist on your planet, if you know how to read them. Q: So would this be in the encoding in the Bible, the book that's out at the moment? B: Yes, but it is a probability, not a certainty. Q2: What's the percentage of probability of.... B: Of the isolated terrorist nuclear strike, now? Ninety-eight percent, coinciding with your year. Q2: Where? B: This is yet to be determined. It may be in what you call your Middle East. It may be in what you call one of your eastern seaboard American cities. The most likely window of opportunity will be between what you would call March of your present year and March of the next year. Q: Is president Clinton and others aware that this is.... B: They are aware of the possibility and the potentiality. There exists, at present, a few small minor clues that would allow them to understand that it may be more imminent than they think, but they haven't seen these clues yet. They haven't picked up on the idea that these are indicators that it could be more serious than they think. They are always prepared for the possibility, they know that for a fact, that it is likely to happen. But there are actually now a few small clues that specifically indicate when and where such a thing might now be being thought of, or carried out, or planned. Again, if such a thing does come to pass, as we have said, even though the likelihood may seem high, in terms of what you call your odds, if it does occur, it will still create such a shock wave through your culture, over your whole planet that no such thing will ever occur again, ever, ever, ever. It does not have to occur, even at 98%, it doesn't have to occur, but if it does, it will never occur again because it will change many things, many, many things. But that is as we read the energy now. For any such thing as a prediction, is no prediction of the future, but only a sensing of the energy that exists at the time the prediction is made, and if that changes, the prediction is moot. But that is the energy we read right now in this latest, as you would say, "barometer reading." Does that help you? Q: Thank you very much. One more question. B: All right. Q: Why did Princess Diana die? B: Well, as we have said to some degree, the tandem connection of what you call your Princess and your Mother Teresa is, because they represent, in general, the idea of your relationship to humanity, what you call humanitarian practices, the nurturing of, the assisting of, the helping of others. They were two strong symbols and still are strong symbols of that attitude and that relationship of being active and being helpful. In that they have taken themselves out of physical existence, they have now left it up to the rest of you to incorporate that ideal within yourself and not just to let them do it, but to do it yourselves. They have shown you the idea and now they say, "you are on your own, I'm out of here. I have given you enough examples, now you must be the example." You will see more and more of this. The pace will accelerate, this idea will accelerate. More and more that have set the stage and lived as examples of the kinds of things that need to be done, in all of you, more of those individuals will take themselves out. Q: Okay, thank you. B: Does that help you? Q: Very much so.
