after studying several sources which say mysterious or guesses and "political power" which is very ambiguous it is time to write a new legend to explain where the hyksos came from. one source which describes the hyksos era is the rhind papyrus which is actually mathmatical "practice problems" which has been analyzed to describe the culture as background of the mathematical text as well as the knowledge of the math.
josepus quotes manetho about the source of the hyksos but several websites reject that version and even britanica just leaves the story a "mystery." rejecting the bit of history that josepus bohereed to preserve.
well i dare to write a legend.
from our time we can look at the past 50 years ago before i was born we barely know what happened. mostly peaceful international trade especialy in europe. no major wars... similarly if we go back 800 years the most important international issues were probably the mongolians spreading into europe and the near east.
go back to the more distant past... it does not even have significance it is so remote! i mean at least knowing how world war two ended helps define borders but before "jesus taught" anything it is so far away that it has no value when we consider even fifty years before our time is far from important... and more ancient... why bother? it is like picking up dirt whiich is plentiful and worthless.
however it is a "mystery" that deserves at the very least a legend.
i specify this is a legend no more reliable then the ambiguous "political influence" version and who cares? it is over 50 years ago anyway!
jacob and the rescue mission
long long ago a religious priest named jacob sent his sons on a rescue mission. binr was watching the sheep when suddenly three men named simon levi and juda jumped from the trees behind binr and grabbed his arms. binr shouted in protest but he was too far away for his brother isaq to hear. binr struggled to free himself but he was overpowered by the three criminals. finaly the leader of the group stepped from the trees and waved his long bronze sword at binr. "stop your struggling. we are not here to make you our slave! surely you know that i am the benevolent abraham."
binr continued screaming and jabbing his elbows to no avail. so abraham walked near to binr and pressed the sword against his cloth shirt and binr finally obeyed.
now the rest of the group gathered the sheep and led them away. abraham had a large group and they were planning to eat meat for dinner.
ans, em, kan, mol, and jard were in the first group.they each grabbed a sheep and pulled its neck until there was a row. the other 8 ran from around shouting to scare the sheep after the leading ones. abraham the benevolent watched as adam, enk, japt, lamk, mats, ne, sot, and som did their job. they would have enough sheep to last for several days.
when the sheep were far enough away abraham lowered his long bronze sword and said now beat this guy up so he will fear us. obediently the 3 thugs simon levi and juda took turns holding binr and hitting him once in the stomach with their fists.
abraham then announced that is enough see my benevolence now we have some grilling to do. abr whistled and the horse-helpers don and gad led a brown horse to abraham who swung himself up and rode away. last the horse-helpers and the 3 thugs walked the other way to the city.
binr rested from the blows but soon hurried back to his father jacob. he reported that the sheep were stolen. jacob called his other two sons from the field "isac and zabil i need you" now jacobs three sons were together. led by jacob they climbed on their white horses and rode over the wheat field after the theives of abraham.
at the edge of the trees they stopped and saw a row of five cloth tents. around them were some of the sheep just walking as the first sheep were being prepared for the large group to eat.
binr the eldest of jacobs three sons asked "what can we do" jacob said "we will kill them." the younger two sons isak and zabil repeated as a question kill? binr protested i was the one they hit but they do not deserve to die." jacob explained this is not a punishment but a method to stop them repeating.
binr was convinced by that and added if they are hungry they could always trade for the meat.
zabil urged "we should strike now before they kill all the sheep" but jacob the sly pointed out that their were gaurds and only three of them they would need to use deception.
jacob sent isac from the trees and from a distance he threw a rock at a guard. isac missed but the guard noticed and shouted jask and bani lets get that child.
isac was only 9 years old and he ran into the trees with jask bani and josp chasing. binr jcob and zabil stood ready just inside the trees with their weapon an arrow in a bow with more arrows if more would come. as the three gaurds were nearing young isac, binr shot his first arrow swish straight into bani's chest the other two stopped suddenly. then jacob and zabil shot- easily the other two guards fell.
next jacob crawled with his 3 sons towards the tents. the theives were busy watching the sheep or preparing the meal relying on the guards to protect them.
they moved slowly between the tents toward the center tent it was guarded by two more guards. can you guess their names? that is right! napt and asar. standing still by the opening of the tent jacob and binr aimed at the standing guards while zabil and isac shot arrows at some men by a fire. standing still all four were easy victims. but jacob and binr waited. isac and zabil shot at the group of four men by the fire swish two dropped. they would be remembered as apir and mens. the other two ran and young isac decided not to shoot at a runner, but zabil shot and hit one more. he would be remebered as juda. one of the three thugs which had punched binr well he would never steal again.
the fourth one escaped and went to warn the chief abraham. meanwhile isac and zabil lit wood from the fire and lit their arrows on fire. as they returned to jacob stealthily sneaking between tents the man named simon who had been with juda reached the tent to warn abraham. the guards would not let him in the tent. simon argued there is danger i must warn the chief but the guards refused to let him in. finaly the family was back together. jacob told zabil and binr to help him kill those three together. "ready... now!" swish went the 3 arrows to the gaurds and juda whom binr recognized. they would be remembered as palg and ragu. now isac lit the cloth tents on fire while zabil pulled open the tent cloth jacob aimed at the man in the throne chair and quickly killed abraham then he crouched and waited for the group inside to come and chase them. isac had ignited the last tent nad was already running back to the trees. zabil waited with jacob while binr escaped.
but nobody came out the tent. so zabil lit the center tent on fire and escaped with jacob into the woods. once abraham was dead the officers had started arguing who wouldl lead. levi and adam were shouting and enk saw his chance to surprise them swinging his sword swiftly he killed levi and adam. the wives huddled by the throne chair.
soon the whole band of abrahams theives wer fleeing the fire and even the sheep ran scattered from the heat and flames. those who fled towards the place where isac and binr stood were greeted by arrows. so they turned the other way towards the other side of the row of tents and ran into the arrows from jacob and zabil. soon the camp was deserted and the four victors gathered the remaining heep to return them home. jacob and zabil returned to the camp with people from thee town to take whatever weapons and metals from the burnt tent and to bury the dead.
since they did not know the names [for only we read them] the town people dug a mass grave and marked it:
"adam set enos kenan malel jard enk mats lamk ne sam em japt" and the head of abraham- they cut it off and carried it to the gates of the city to warn futur theives to stay away from them.
meanwhile the others prepared the dead sheep on the fires or looted the the tools and jewelery which abrahams theives had amassed. they had stiolen much but would never enjoy it those who ran would never enjoy it and those that did not run were dead.

history-??
i am very sad.
how am i supposed to write about history when all the websites have conflicting stories.
when i was a kid i was taught [like most american christians too] that the israelites were slaves in egypt and were sent free but when?
one version is that 3300 years ago around the year 1312 bc was the exodus.
if so we would add the year 430 of the bible and say the israelites entered in 1742.
how does that "allign" with what we know about egypt?
1782 hyksos came to egypt and ruled but from when?
one version is from 1782
or 1640 or 1630.
if ruled from 1782 then what is the hyksos invasion of 1725?
either way lower egypt means the low lands where the river flows down to in northern egypt so the israelites would enter north egypt from canaan and meet the hyksos who ruled for hundreds of years so th new king before the slavery is a problem because the "new king" was before they entered in 1742 and continued until 1522 or 1523 or 1570... differing versions.
to make matters sadder, researchers defending the bible have their own version of history.
they put the israelites entering at the joint when the hyksos ended...
which could be 1570 when hyksos were driven out by ahmose 1 or perhaps ruled until 1523 like britannica online...
the bible defenders have their own number 1587 for end of hyksos. yet that does not DEFEND the bible which said 430!
it would be 1742 as above not the end of hyksos.
a tiny fraction of the population follows rabbis they have their own numbers briefly- 1312 exodus plus 210 or215 based on the lineage of moses from kohot... a contradicyion in the book of exodus itself. christians publish 400 and corrupt moses lineage as different from what appears while rabbis prefer and teach the truth is 210 and corrupt what appears as 430 as including other lands admitting the text of exodus is a lie. unless they corript it.
so we can ignore unreliable book exodus.
but then we do not know how long israelites were in egypt... no loss with exodus we do not know either.
is it POSSIBLE that the hyksos which were phoenician that means from the east coast of mediteranean were actuly the hebrews? WE KNOW THE NAME OF THEIR CAPITAL WAS AVARIS SO THAT MATCHES IVRI=HEBREW.
from the semites. they came and "built avaris in 1783 BC see source below.
so they named the city for themselves the hebrews and ruled egypt for many years. 1783-1570 around 210 years -- now that is not intende to coiincide with the rabbi number yet it does coincide.
who said these numbers?
not a jewish rabbi they believe 1312 exodus not "at the end of 210 at 1570"
perhaps the number is true but the rabbis had a bad starting point.
who built avaris?
one egyptologist site which records the claim by manetho that hyksos ruled 284 years yet britanica has them ruling much less.. and as usual from when is in conflict...
1640 or 1630 or YET the same egypotologists numbers only 118! that is ridiculous so we can ignore both the book of exodus and the confused egyptologist with no "contact us" option.
so that leaves britanica 1630 for hyksos.
because 1640 comes from a site with the stupid numbers which either total 118 or state 284 that is just stupid. so that leaves 1630 of britannica yet they ruled from 1872. so we can say the rule spread.
in first phase they ruled "northern egypt" from 1872 in the city they built
http://www.ancient.eu/Hyksos/
avaris built 1783 and established as capital and rile from 1782! and control all of egypt from 1630 not 1640 from confused egyptologist. until anmose expelled hebrews from egypt in 1570.
yet britanica said they ruled until 1523.
1782-1523=259 years yet the number of rabbis was 210 well they may claim to be jews but they are mistaken...
by ignoring both "moses lineage years" and 430 which conflict each other in book exodus, we are free to say that the builders of avaris called the city by their own name ivri hebrews and ruled egypt for 259 years and the entire egypt from 1630-1570. according to the website link above they were expelled yet they were still king? one king?? of the dynasty if king expelled how can dynasty proceed?
solution the one king was expelled in the year claimed 1570 while the following king took over a smaller section until the year in britanica. so in conclusion what remains is the books of the hebrews and their leaders called rabbis are all wrong whereas the hebrews true story is ruling egypt for hundreds of years.
even britanica quotes the possibility that hebrews were identifies as hyksos- with no reason not to. when we consider the years pointing to around 1740 as above we can say they are wrong but meant the nearby even of 1782 and ruled egypt as polytheistic hebrews for 210 years the number of the rabbis bt not until 1312 if so the "exit" was the loss of the kingdom- not the end of slavery!
this provides a motive to lie and not admit they lost kingdom but reversee the story of the exit not as chaseed out- a word that is even in the unreliable bible "they were chased out" this detail fits what we know about ahmose1 expelling hyksos- not because we trust the bible but because it matches what we know alreaady... so the exit from egypt was the loss of king status which is a shame so the israelites lied to hide their loss and said we were slaves and made up a story they were slaved and like most lies the lie is easily refuted as not matchiing the facts at any point. saying a new king cannot work with the entrance of hyksos as above hyksos entered 1783 and built avaris then before 430 of exodus. and the end of hyksos is unknown maybe 1570 or one king expelled ending the 15 dynasty while a new king continued in a smaller region until the year in britanica 1523 so all the different version make me sad. so what does all this water "boil down" to?
a long partial dynasty in 3 phases. small big small for 260 years and the true expelling was the hebrews exods when they lost the dynasty and that would be the exodus story.
not to mak jews appear good because they clearly lied about at least half of their story but because of the evidence.

summer story
summer story
***quote from the story. "...he swung the wooden bat and missed the ball, adding a "strike" to the total of three "balls". then he planned to wait for the ball to fly past.
he was set to wait, but the ball came straight.[rhyme] he hit the ball hard and the loud "crack" sound scared him. the ball leaped back, between the pitcher and first base..."
1
today was the same as all the hot days of late spring and summer. one certain young boy felt very hot. in his house the air conditioner=a/c was cooling the home all day. his mother was enjoying the cool air. she had forbid him to enjoy it. it was working anyway! he should be at home enjoying the cool air like mom. she had shouted at him "you cannot stay here" in a hundred different ways, until he left the house to play games outside under the burning summer sun.
he wished he could be, in the cool ay-see [rhyme]. he would choose one show from tv and play the games on a table in the cool home. they had games but the person who supposedly loved him, she forbid him to play them...
they had a/c, but the mom who supposedly loved him forbid him to enjoy it...
they had a tv, but she forbid him to enjoy that too... not even one tv show per day. instead he had to be in the intense summer heat. if that is love, what is hate... no. she did not show love. only she could enjoy the cool a/c. he wished there was a word for such a mean person. greedy? selfish? mean? they did not describe this "mom".
this young hot boy was named muhamet. he sat beside his friend juda, who was probably just as hot and also suffering from the intense heat, on a flat wood bench under a sheet for shadow. they watched the "baseball" game between their own team and the visitor team. they felt thankful to wait in the relative shade until their turn to try to hit the ball.
m told j, "i am so grateful that now is school-vacation, because i could not even think in this unbearable heat. j added, "AND it is also too hot for games with running." they wore shirts with green numbers. m was number 12 and j was number 21. the name of their team "riyadh riders" was not on the shirt, only a number. the other team, named medina MD's, wore shirts with orange numbers. not the pleasant orange. the color was the gross ugly shade of orange. m felt pity for the other team, his competitor, which for so very long stood in defense under the "scorching saudi-sun." the powerful heat of the saudi desert was baking them.
juda said, "the longer our team hits, the longer those kids will stand under the burning sun and suffer ." m was surprised that j had been thinking the same thoughts as him! m agreed, "yeh, or get "walked" [as you hopefully know, that means if the ball is not aimed properly, then after four bad "pitches" of throwing the ball, the pitcher loses his chance for that player, who can walk with no rush to first base.]" he referred to the unskilled pitcher 3, whose aim was bad. already, despite the plentiful attempts, 4 per player, 3 had already "walked" two "rr" players, just in this fourth inning. m added "they will stand in the heat for a very long time."
their team captain, also named muhamet, came and asked, "juda, are you ready?"--"i am"--"go practice swinging" juda stood to obey while m joked, "why bother? you will also get walked" m now remembered how he met juda.
muhamet's family was from israel. his father had been a devout muslim when he was born in the city named haifa. later his father had met a woman who told the story of her journey from islam to christianity, surprisingly directed by the muslim holy book called quran. based on a certain idea in the quran, which he recognized from his reading, she explained [see below] that it would be wrong to follow the imams and instead truth to follow the wisdom of jesus. yusuf ali was intrigued by this idea and that same day reread that section about the wisdom of jesus. he then tried explaining the reason to his wife, but she only got angry. so yusuf divorced her by a kadi. he met many muslim women and told each one this idea but they all just shouted insults at him. if they thought he was wrong they could tell him the mistake. finally he met osnat. he saw the woman at a coffee shop sitting alone. he sat beside her and he felt the conversation flow. he told her this idea and she was the only muslim woman who did not shout insults at him. soon they were married by the imam on her request despite the age difference. osnat was almost twelve years younger than yusuf. as they had planned the day after the wedding both went to the catholic church and he converted to christianity. she seemed so patient and in love with the older yusuf. when muhamet was 4, the family including yusuf's son m, moved from israel to riyadh in saudi arabia. yusuf the father slept away from home almost the whole week. he stayed at a camp by the oil drills. only friday he would return home to the family of four. osnat was very bossy to yusuf's two sons. the christian "nanny" from britian did all the chores of the house and watched the sons. at the oil camp yusuf had met joe, who also lived in riyadh. they arranged for their sons who were the same age, to meet. juda's family was from new york city. juda was born to a secular jewish family. after his father josef worked at and became familiar with, an oil drill platform near the atlantic coast, he moved the family to to riyadh and went to work at that oil drill camp where yusuf had met him. the two young boys m+j easily related to each other and spoke english.
now j stood by the unusual-square called home plate [usually with five corners] waiting for 4 bad pitches. meanwhile m sat under the sheet in the shade, watching j, and waiting for his own turn to hit the ball. m took the plastic from his bag and unrolled the plastic. there was some lamb meat which the nanny had prepared. he slowly chewed the soft meat enjoying the falvor and spices and soft texture. he made a rhyme "here i am, eating lamb" while waiting and another rhyme about the game, "i will be, so ready." now he noticed the orange numbers of the md. one was at first, 2 at second 3 at pitcher and 13 at third. coincidentally, beside orange one, green one was also at first, from the "walk" and with orange 13 was also green 13 at third base from a good hit called "triple". 13 had ran all the way to third and the previous player 6, who had a walk had ran all the way home. this added a point to the riders and added an rbi point for 13. so 2 kids with 1 were at first base. it was possible but eery. at the same time as 333 was 111.
meanwhile juda stood wincing in the "bright light which disturbed his sight" [rhyme+eye rhyme] and m bit another bite from the few cubes of lamb. he wanted to buy more now, but there were 3 more innings in this long american game called softball version. he wondered if regular was shorter. so he decided to wait and composed another short rhyme "the lamb which i got, still feels hot" a benefit of this desert land.
juda had swung the wooden bat and missed the ball, adding a "strike" to the total of three "balls". then he planned to wait for the ball to fly past so he could "walk". he was set to wait, but the ball came straight.[rhyme] juda hit the ball hard and the loud "crack" sound scared juda. the ball leaped back, between the pitcher and first base...
the crowd cheered and clapped. 1 was ready and flew across the dry dirt towards second base. 13 was distracted by the heat, until the captain waved his arms. 13 now hurried from third towards "home plate" while juda ran quickly. 3 the pitcher ran towards the ball very quickly, but the ball was faster. 1 stayed guarding near first. 3 shouted to 1, "get it" but 1 resisted the instinct to chase the ball and even ignored 3 because, as trained, he needs to be near the base. the ball slowed as it rolled into the outfield section of dirt. the kid 9 in right field had not even noticed the ball rolling slowly towards him. the ball slowed more slower and slower. 9 should run towards it but he was not ready! 9 still did not notice the ball. 3 screamed in frustration "9 get it!" the kid did not respond. meanwhile juda was straining to run his fastest to first. "WILLIAM" 3 hollered in frustration, trying the name instead of number.
9 had been sent there, because he was the newest on the team and people rarely hit there. especially at this age the ball almost never reached outfield and then went to the left field near third base. it was william's first year while it was the second year for his young team-mates despite all being the same age 6. this whole game nobody had hit yet towards 9 in right field near first base. now hearing his name, 9 jumped in surprise and finally noticed the ball. the ball had slowed and stopped so 9 ran- barely can call that running, toward the ball. 3 and 1 were encouraging and urging "get the ball get the ball" juda touched first and looked for the signal. captain m waved so he ran to second with all his might panting and gasping. 13, who had started late from third, reached "home plate". 13 slid. unnecessarily. the crowd cheered and clapped again. the points increased again. by one but it certainly would be 2 more points for the home team named riyadh riders and 2 more rbi points for juda.
william finally reached the ball, crouched painfully to pick it up and finally threw it... at the kid shouting at him. however, not exactly at 1. the coach near third waved a signal at juda who tapped his right foot on the heavy sand-bag marking second base, continuing around towards third. juda almost reached 1 he was almost overtaking 1, because he ran with all his might. william was too inexperienced to realize he should throw to third base to stop the runner and was very nervous because 1 was shouting at him.
the ball was aimed bad and flew by 1 at least 2 meters to the side. now juda urged green-1 "faster." soon they both arrived at home. juda was praised the hero for a "homerun" rare at that age, but based on the bad teamwork and an error. plus 2 points for rbi because his hit allowed 1 and 13 to score points too. the players gathered around juda praising his hit.
the crowd cheered much louder now. the captain of md's went to the "umpire" judge and "forfeited" ending the game early. next he walked to 3 and said a lie "you tried and you were pretty good" and added "we will practice more."
m+j bought some lamb cubes at the hotdog stand. juda said "good thing we did not bet on this game. i thought we would lose. then i would owe a debt"muhamet loved rhymes and announced "never ever bet or you will owe debt". j added "said muhamet".
"how did you hit so well?" asked m, complimenting his friend. "I kept my eye on the pitchers hand" they both bit another bit of lamb.
m+j walked to juda's home. they planned on playing the money game "monopol-y." on other days they set a time limit and after 2 hours counted the money to see the winner and switched to other games.
today while they walked, they argued. muhamet asked juda "are you also christian?"--no--the quran said the wisdom of jesus is good and to study it." m told the story: because of the quran his father had converted to christianity. since the quran said to study it, then certainly it was true and not corrupt. juda listened politely although quite bored. after a detailed explanation juda agreed "that logic is on the dot."--so why arent you christian?--because all religions have god--can you prove "no god"??--no-- so believe--based on "no evidence either way"??
m insisted "if you cannot prove "no god" then that means yes god. not seeing is no proof"--what do you mean?-- things exist that we cannot see, like wind and covered things and bacteria.--if god is a bacteria i would believe god exists--no! those are examples of things we cannot see. god is invisible.--so how can we know?--faith-- faith based on what?--god sent messages--and how would we test if those messages are from god--they predict the future and were true--say an example--isaia the prophet said a miracle would happen as a sign, a young girl would have a baby and the prediction of the future was true--when?-- when jesus was born-- i mean when was the prophecy--isaia said it so whenever isaia lived--i meant when did the prophecy say it would happen.--huh?
a long silence followed.
m continued "isaia said a prophecy about the future and was right"--did he say a place and a time?-- no-- then that proves no god--what??--god would know the place and time.--god knew! he just did not say--if it was a message from god then he would know the time and place." each was repeating what they heard from their fathers.
m tried one last time "look at the earth and nature god must have created it. without god how could all this exist?--i do not know--so obviously god made it--i do not know. i will not imagine a god just because i do not know--offer a different possibility--magical fairies made everything with magic--okay so one magical fairy is the god who made eerything that is god.-- one fairy or many fairies? how would we know?--no! there is one god--how can we know?--because of the bible--the bible cannot be from god--why not?--because god would know the time and place.
m gave up and they walked in silence. they did not argue about god anymore. instead they played games. luckily nobody heard this argument, because in saudi arabia atheism is punishable by death...

***quote from the story. "...he swung the wooden bat and missed the ball, adding a "strike" to the total of three "balls". then he planned to wait for the ball to fly past.
he was set to wait, but the ball came straight.[rhyme] he hit the ball hard and the loud "crack" sound scared him. the ball leaped back, between the pitcher and first base..."
1
today was the same as all the hot days of late spring and summer. one certain young boy felt very hot. in his house the air conditioner=a/c was cooling the home all day. his mother was enjoying the cool air. she had forbid him to enjoy it. it was working anyway! he should be at home enjoying the cool air like mom. she had shouted at him "you cannot stay here" in a hundred different ways, until he left the house to play games outside under the burning summer sun.
he wished he could be, in the cool ay-see [rhyme]. he would choose one show from tv and play the games on a table in the cool home. they had games but the person who supposedly loved him, she forbid him to play them...
they had a/c, but the mom who supposedly loved him forbid him to enjoy it...
they had a tv, but she forbid him to enjoy that too... not even one tv show per day. instead he had to be in the intense summer heat. if that is love, what is hate... no. she did not show love. only she could enjoy the cool a/c. he wished there was a word for such a mean person. greedy? selfish? mean? they did not describe this "mom".
this young hot boy was named muhamet. he sat beside his friend juda, who was probably just as hot and also suffering from the intense heat, on a flat wood bench under a sheet for shadow. they watched the "baseball" game between their own team and the visitor team. they felt thankful to wait in the relative shade until their turn to try to hit the ball.
m told j, "i am so grateful that now is school-vacation, because i could not even think in this unbearable heat. j added, "AND it is also too hot for games with running." they wore shirts with green numbers. m was number 12 and j was number 21. the name of their team "riyadh riders" was not on the shirt, only a number. the other team, named medina MD's, wore shirts with orange numbers. not the pleasant orange. the color was the gross ugly shade of orange. m felt pity for the other team, his competitor, which for so very long stood in defense under the "scorching saudi-sun." the powerful heat of the saudi desert was baking them.
juda said, "the longer our team hits, the longer those kids will stand under the burning sun and suffer ." m was surprised that j had been thinking the same thoughts as him! m agreed, "yeh, or get "walked" [as you hopefully know, that means if the ball is not aimed properly, then after four bad "pitches" of throwing the ball, the pitcher loses his chance for that player, who can walk with no rush to first base.]" he referred to the unskilled pitcher 3, whose aim was bad. already, despite the plentiful attempts, 4 per player, 3 had already "walked" two "rr" players, just in this fourth inning. m added "they will stand in the heat for a very long time."
their team captain, also named muhamet, came and asked, "juda, are you ready?"--"i am"--"go practice swinging" juda stood to obey while m joked, "why bother? you will also get walked" m now remembered how he met juda.
muhamet's family was from israel. his father had been a devout muslim when he was born in the city named haifa. later his father had met a woman who told the story of her journey from islam to christianity, surprisingly directed by the muslim holy book called quran. based on a certain idea in the quran, which he recognized from his reading, she explained [see below] that it would be wrong to follow the imams and instead truth to follow the wisdom of jesus. yusuf ali was intrigued by this idea and that same day reread that section about the wisdom of jesus. he then tried explaining the reason to his wife, but she only got angry. so yusuf divorced her by a kadi. he met many muslim women and told each one this idea but they all just shouted insults at him. if they thought he was wrong they could tell him the mistake. finally he met osnat. he saw the woman at a coffee shop sitting alone. he sat beside her and he felt the conversation flow. he told her this idea and she was the only muslim woman who did not shout insults at him. soon they were married by the imam on her request despite the age difference. osnat was almost twelve years younger than yusuf. as they had planned the day after the wedding both went to the catholic church and he converted to christianity. she seemed so patient and in love with the older yusuf. when muhamet was 4, the family including yusuf's son m, moved from israel to riyadh in saudi arabia. yusuf the father slept away from home almost the whole week. he stayed at a camp by the oil drills. only friday he would return home to the family of four. osnat was very bossy to yusuf's two sons. the christian "nanny" from britian did all the chores of the house and watched the sons. at the oil camp yusuf had met joe, who also lived in riyadh. they arranged for their sons who were the same age, to meet. juda's family was from new york city. juda was born to a secular jewish family. after his father josef worked at and became familiar with, an oil drill platform near the atlantic coast, he moved the family to to riyadh and went to work at that oil drill camp where yusuf had met him. the two young boys m+j easily related to each other and spoke english.
now j stood by the unusual-square called home plate [usually with five corners] waiting for 4 bad pitches. meanwhile m sat under the sheet in the shade, watching j, and waiting for his own turn to hit the ball. m took the plastic from his bag and unrolled the plastic. there was some lamb meat which the nanny had prepared. he slowly chewed the soft meat enjoying the falvor and spices and soft texture. he made a rhyme "here i am, eating lamb" while waiting and another rhyme about the game, "i will be, so ready." now he noticed the orange numbers of the md. one was at first, 2 at second 3 at pitcher and 13 at third. coincidentally, beside orange one, green one was also at first, from the "walk" and with orange 13 was also green 13 at third base from a good hit called "triple". 13 had ran all the way to third and the previous player 6, who had a walk had ran all the way home. this added a point to the riders and added an rbi point for 13. so 2 kids with 1 were at first base. it was possible but eery. at the same time as 333 was 111.
meanwhile juda stood wincing in the "bright light which disturbed his sight" [rhyme+eye rhyme] and m bit another bite from the few cubes of lamb. he wanted to buy more now, but there were 3 more innings in this long american game called softball version. he wondered if regular was shorter. so he decided to wait and composed another short rhyme "the lamb which i got, still feels hot" a benefit of this desert land.
juda had swung the wooden bat and missed the ball, adding a "strike" to the total of three "balls". then he planned to wait for the ball to fly past so he could "walk". he was set to wait, but the ball came straight.[rhyme] juda hit the ball hard and the loud "crack" sound scared juda. the ball leaped back, between the pitcher and first base...
the crowd cheered and clapped. 1 was ready and flew across the dry dirt towards second base. 13 was distracted by the heat, until the captain waved his arms. 13 now hurried from third towards "home plate" while juda ran quickly. 3 the pitcher ran towards the ball very quickly, but the ball was faster. 1 stayed guarding near first. 3 shouted to 1, "get it" but 1 resisted the instinct to chase the ball and even ignored 3 because, as trained, he needs to be near the base. the ball slowed as it rolled into the outfield section of dirt. the kid 9 in right field had not even noticed the ball rolling slowly towards him. the ball slowed more slower and slower. 9 should run towards it but he was not ready! 9 still did not notice the ball. 3 screamed in frustration "9 get it!" the kid did not respond. meanwhile juda was straining to run his fastest to first. "WILLIAM" 3 hollered in frustration, trying the name instead of number.
9 had been sent there, because he was the newest on the team and people rarely hit there. especially at this age the ball almost never reached outfield and then went to the left field near third base. it was william's first year while it was the second year for his young team-mates despite all being the same age 6. this whole game nobody had hit yet towards 9 in right field near first base. now hearing his name, 9 jumped in surprise and finally noticed the ball. the ball had slowed and stopped so 9 ran- barely can call that running, toward the ball. 3 and 1 were encouraging and urging "get the ball get the ball" juda touched first and looked for the signal. captain m waved so he ran to second with all his might panting and gasping. 13, who had started late from third, reached "home plate". 13 slid. unnecessarily. the crowd cheered and clapped again. the points increased again. by one but it certainly would be 2 more points for the home team named riyadh riders and 2 more rbi points for juda.
william finally reached the ball, crouched painfully to pick it up and finally threw it... at the kid shouting at him. however, not exactly at 1. the coach near third waved a signal at juda who tapped his right foot on the heavy sand-bag marking second base, continuing around towards third. juda almost reached 1 he was almost overtaking 1, because he ran with all his might. william was too inexperienced to realize he should throw to third base to stop the runner and was very nervous because 1 was shouting at him.
the ball was aimed bad and flew by 1 at least 2 meters to the side. now juda urged green-1 "faster." soon they both arrived at home. juda was praised the hero for a "homerun" rare at that age, but based on the bad teamwork and an error. plus 2 points for rbi because his hit allowed 1 and 13 to score points too. the players gathered around juda praising his hit.
the crowd cheered much louder now. the captain of md's went to the "umpire" judge and "forfeited" ending the game early. next he walked to 3 and said a lie "you tried and you were pretty good" and added "we will practice more."
m+j bought some lamb cubes at the hotdog stand. juda said "good thing we did not bet on this game. i thought we would lose. then i would owe a debt"muhamet loved rhymes and announced "never ever bet or you will owe debt". j added "said muhamet".
"how did you hit so well?" asked m, complimenting his friend. "I kept my eye on the pitchers hand" they both bit another bit of lamb.
m+j walked to juda's home. they planned on playing the money game "monopol-y." on other days they set a time limit and after 2 hours counted the money to see the winner and switched to other games.
today while they walked, they argued. muhamet asked juda "are you also christian?"--no--the quran said the wisdom of jesus is good and to study it." m told the story: because of the quran his father had converted to christianity. since the quran said to study it, then certainly it was true and not corrupt. juda listened politely although quite bored. after a detailed explanation juda agreed "that logic is on the dot."--so why arent you christian?--because all religions have god--can you prove "no god"??--no-- so believe--based on "no evidence either way"??

m tried one last time "look at the earth and nature god must have created it. without god how could all this exist?--i do not know--so obviously god made it--i do not know. i will not imagine a god just because i do not know--offer a different possibility--magical fairies made everything with magic--okay so one magical fairy is the god who made eerything that is god.-- one fairy or many fairies? how would we know?--no! there is one god--how can we know?--because of the bible--the bible cannot be from god--why not?--because god would know the time and place.
m gave up and they walked in silence. they did not argue about god anymore. instead they played games. luckily nobody heard this argument, because in saudi arabia atheism is punishable by death...

alien abduction
at around 1 am, on the night of june 6, 1944, jorj was flying past a beautiful gorgeous orange planet with bands and a huge red oval. jorj slowed down to enjoy the beauty and watch as her rocket slowly drifted past. slow for travel between planets. and only because she slowed down, she saw other small rockets near a blue planet so she decided to see it next. after enjoying the view for what felt like an hour jorj went to see the rockets near the blue planet.
as she passed a giant red rock the screen showed that the distant rockets were falling to the blue planet and taking humans into the rockets. that seemed mean and inconsiderate. other rockets were falling and taking humans out from the rocket. where did they get humans? perhaps they were doing the same mission and after taking the human, later they returned it. that seemed like a fun game so jorj decided to join the fun.
now that jorj was near she saw that although almost the whole planet was blue it was rotating. brown and green was appearing on the horizon which was turning towards her. soon jorj was surprised that so much of the planet was brown. she was so shocked that she forgot the game until blue appeared again on the horizon. that caused her to enjoy again the beautiful blue color so nice and as the last brown was passing below her she quickly dived down and saw the coast [we humans call it the atlantic coast of europe] below she saw on the display screen many humans. they were all wearing the same color which seemed bad and boring. except one had a different mark on his jacket unique from all the rest. that was not boring.
jorj flashed her special blue light at the one with the unique mark. the beam easily penetrated the cover which she could see through with her sensors. the human appeared in the sample cage. jorj went to examine the human. it was the first time seeing a live human.
this one was shouting and screaming. that was troublesome so she aimed a pink ray at the human and soon he was asleep.
jorj opened the cage to examine the human. she pulled gently on the grey skin which easily slid off. she continued removing layers of skin until she reached a pink layer that was stuck to the body. after all the layers above the pink were removed she studied every centimeter of the pink creature. it was less hair than a monkey so that was nice. meanwhile the planet had continued rotating and now new brown and green appeared on the horizon. time to return the human. she tossed all the grey skin on top of the pinkish human and left the cage closing it behind her.
quickly she controlled the ship to shine the ray and send the human to the land below. oof jorj cursed angrily now it is ugly brown again. then she wanted to see a human from this land she flashed the light and another human appeared. this one was staring in shock. she said to his mind "remove your skin i want to see your pink" the human seemed familiar with this and was not screaming. he pulled of his skin many layers and she looked carefully and saw almost exactly the same except the color of the skin was different and one more difference a piece was missing from the finger between the two legs so it looked different than the other human.
perhaps this human had a disease and because of the illness they cut off the bad part so she asked why is your body different? he said because foreskin is dirty so they cut it off when he was born.
jorj was angry because she hated lies and announced i just saw one ond it is not dirty did you cut it off yourself? didnt you see it was the same as the rest of the body?
no he explained my parents cuut it off.
jorj was horrified parents the ones "genetically programmed" [as a famous actress said] to give and care for the child did the opposite of give to take. jorj started howling like mad wolf but the human said relax everybody does that.
jorj could barely gasp the words "i just saw a human that was not missing a piece" in her rage she wanted to burn the whole planet that instant just to eliminate the cruel parents. why was the man so calm he was the victim. and why did he think it was dirty? she had just seen it was not dirty and these were lies. clearly he was tricked. that made her furious even more! she immediatly sent him back forgetting his clothes and forgetting the pretty blue of the planet and she contacted her admiral requesting authorization to burn the planet and to order the destruction of the blue planet with the wicked parents.
meanwhile in the land called USA two men appeared naked. one babbling in german and the other begging for some new clothes. the army decided these would be secret, top secret classified and got information from the one who spoke german with the markings of the highest general on the french coast. the best experienced general in all of france would not be in france on this fateful day. how convenient for americans. who now heard important information about the germans positions and plans.
jorj spoke with her admiral who urged her to consider that not every parent took away part of their baby. it would not be justice to angrily destroy the whole planet when only some were cruel to their own child.
jorj calmed down realizing it would be wrong to burn the whole planet. well she offered a compromise i can take a family from the not mean land and then we can burn the rest.--no replied the admiral, also a female, we must give the humans a chance to change. we must send them messages not to cut healthy pieces off their babies and if in one hundred rotations they still do it, then we will take one family and burn the rest of the planet.
SO HERE I AM warning you to save our planet by "saving your own baby from the knife" no healthy baby needs surgery. if we continue to cut off healthy stuff, then the life from jorj's planet will consider us cruel--
THEY WILL CONSIDER US CRUEL
and burn the whole planet and now it is almost one hundred rotations we will all burn by 2044 unless we change our ways so spread the word and save the future of your families or we will all burn in less than forty years remain...
