A RECENT announcement by the National Society for Human Rights (NSHR) charging that any Namibians "left behind" in Swapo camps were now dead, has been slanuned by the Political Consultative Council of ex-Swapo Detainees. The NSHR announcement, which was not received by The ' Namibian, left small hope that survivors from detention camps would be found. But the PCC rejected the "circumstancial" nature 0 ' oftheNSHR's "evidence", calling the anrtouncementinappropri OMEGA ate and irresponsible. The PCC expressed hope of reunion with. fellow Namibians, whom they last saw when they left the camps in June 1989, though it admitted the "frightening possibility that Swapo could have wiped out the hundreds of innocent Namibians who remained at theirprisons in Angola" . The NSHR claims Were irresponsible in that they gave "the butchers" new licence to munier, denied hope to eXisting survivors, and negated the efforts of the ICR C to trace missing Namibians, said the PCC statement. 4 Thursday June 4 1992 THE NAMIBIAN

In principle, the intense interest in eternal life which in inherent in MOST COMPASSIONATE any person is indicative of an immortal universe and immunity of death. If your Excellency would like to conduct researches about such subjects, you can order the Scholars to Your Excellency Mr. Gorbachev, Chairman of the Presidium of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, consult, besides the books of Western Philosophers, the writings of AI-Farabi and Avicenna (Peace be with best wishes for the happiness of Your Excellency and the Soviet people. upon them) in peripateticsm, because such studies will prove that the law causality upon which any knowledge hinges is "rational" and not sensble, and the comprehension, of the Universal terms as well Since your assumption of responsibility, it has been feH that Your Excellency, in analysing the world as the general laws upon which any argumentation is based is also rational, not sensible .. political events, particularly the issues pertaining to the Soviet Union, have found yourseH in a new era of recessment, transition and encounter, furthermore since your pluck and audacity in dealing with the In this connection, the noble writings of AlSohravardi (Peace be upon him) on philosophy of illumination world realities is quite likely to disrupt the dominant balance of interests accross the world, I found it could be consuHed.

Your Excellency can also ask Scholars to Although it is quite likely that your new attitudes and decisions be confined to the resolution of party consult the celebrated work of Sadrol Motalehin (May Allah be pleased wtth him, and may Allah unite disputes as well as some of the problems confronting the Soviet people, yet your courage in reveiwing with the Prophets and the pious) international, not sensible. a School of thought that has, for many solid years, imprisoned the world revolutionary youths within Iron fences, is praise worthy.

If you wish to to put an end to the economic woes of Socialism, and Communism by from matter, hence it won't be restricted by laws of matter. simply resorting to the core of Western Capitalism, you will not only ease the pains prevalent in the Soviet society, but will also call with a statement in its economic and social aspects, the West, too, has I will no longer bore you with details by not mentioning the names of the books of great thinkers, become embroiled in the same problems, but only of different description as well as other problems. particularly Mohi Aldin Ebn Arabi. Should Your Excellency wish to fathom the subtleties presented by this great Scholar, please dispatch some of the highly intelligent Soviet experts-who are well prepared . Your Excellency Mr. Gorbachev, we should submit ourselves to the truth. for such issues, to Qum so that in a few years, by the grace of Allah, they will acquire knowledge of these subtleties and that without this journey, such awareness, would not crystalize. The princ.,al problem of your country does not originate from the issue of ownership or economy or . freedom; your problem in eff~t, emanates from lack of real belief in God - the same problem that has Your Excellency Mr. Gorbachev, now after mentioning these points and preliminaries, I call on Your dragged the West into d~dence and deadlock. Your main problem stems from the persistent and futile Excellency to seriously inquire about Islarn, not because Islam and Muslims need your inquiry, but struggle against God - who is the actual roots of Being and Creation. because ifs exalted and universal values can give comfort and save all nations and it can also resolve the basic problerns confronting humanity. A profound investigation into Islam could, forever, rid you of Your Excellency Mr. Gorbachev it is crystal dear to all and sundry that from now on, one should look the issue of Afghanistan and other problems of this type. We treat Muslims across the world as Iranian for Communism in the museums of the world political history, since Marxism cannot meet any of the MusUms, and furthermore, we share common destinies. By granting relative religious freedom to some real needs of human beings. It is a meterialist School of thought and by the dint of materialist, one of the soviet Republics, you practically proved that you no Ionge{ think religion in the opiate of society. cannot save humanity from the crisis of lack of belief in Spirituality, which in turn, is the acutest pain It is not religion that has made Iran as adamant as a mountain against the Superpowers, the opiate of pervasive in human societies - both Eastern and Western. the Society?
Your Excellency Mr. Gorbachev, it is likely that on some aspects you have not conventi~nally tur~ Is it notreligion that is desirous of administration of Justice in the world of freedom of man from material your back on Marxism in public interviews; however you, yourself, may well be aware that In real reality, and spirttual shackles? things are different. In fact, a religion that puts the material and spiritual capitals of Islamic and non-Islamic countries at the The Chinese leader inflicted the first blow on Communism but you dealt the second and ostensibly, the disposals of the superpowers and other powers and also shout at the people that the followers should last blow to it. Today we observe a Communism of sort across the world. refrain from polttics is, indeed, the opiate of society. This is no longer the true religion, but in effect, it is called, the American sponsored religion by Iranians. I, however, sincerely call on you not to get trapped in the prison of West and Arch Satan while breaking away the iron curtains of Marxist idealism. In condusion, I explicitly announce that the Islamic Republic of Iran as the greatest and str~ngest base of the Islamic world can fill the faith vacuum pervasive in your system. Anyhow, Iran, as In the past, I hope you will have the privilege of wiping off the last residues of 70 years of perversity of the world believes in the respects of good neighbourly and bilateral relations. Communism from the Chapters of history and your fatherland. .. - ...... Peace and Blessings be upon those who seek truth. Today, even governments normally considered as your allies who are eager to secu~e the interests of their peoples and motherland will never be able to convince themselves of squandenng the under.and overground resources of their countries to prove the validity of Communism, the signal for whose failure has already been heard by its proponents.Your Excellency ~r. Gorbachev, whe~ aft~r ~venty years the.call to prayer, Allahu Akbar (God is the Greatest), and testimony for the prophetiC mission ~f the seal of prophets (May Allah's Blesssings be upon him and his progeny), was heard from the minarets of Mosques in sorne of the Soviet RepubliCS, moved all the followers of the genui~e Islam of Moham~ad (May Allah's Blessings be upon him and his progeny) to tears, hence I deemed It necessary to mention this point to you so that you can once more rethink both in terms of material and divine world views.
Materialists regard sense as their recognition criterion and anything that is beyond the sense does not live within the domain of knowledge and that they also consider existence as equivalent to material being, hence anything devoid of matter is regarded as non-existence. The naturally they consider the world of the unseen as the existence of the exalted Almighty, Divine Revelation, Prophetic Mission and Doomsday as totally mythical. While the basis of knowledge in Divine world view is composed of "sense" and "reason", and anything which is "rational" falls within the domain of knowledge, though not sensible.
The Glorious Quran finds fauH with the fundamentalists of the material world view and to those who believe that God does not exist, otherwise He would be seen; or in the Divine word: "We shan never believe in Thee until we see God manifesdy" (11-55) addresses as follows: "No vision can grasp him, but His grasp is over all vision: He is above all comprehension, yet isacquainted~ith al~ f!1ings" (6-1 ?3). We can temporarHy do without the arguments presented by the Holy Quran regarding DIVine Revelation, Prophetic Mission and Doomsday which from your point of view, are just regarded as the matter contention.
Principally, I was not inclined to get you entangled i~ the subleties of Phil~hers. I would ~uffice it to provide you with a couple of simple, natural and Immediate examples Which can benem even the politicians.
