Yesterday it was "Moses and Pharaoh", today it is Farrakhan and the modern
"Pharaoh". However, prophesies may have no meaning to a people who are ignorant of the
laws of cause and effect.

On January 10, 2005 the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan reminded us that the 10% who rule this
world understand the laws of "cause and effect", but they keep the 85% in a state of
ignorance and superstition by teaching them that "…rain, snow, hail and Earthquakes comes
from that mystery God". According to the Teachings of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad, there is
the remaining 5% who are the "…poor, righteous teachers, who do not believe in the teaching
of the 10%."

We, over the last four years from 2001 through 2004 under the section called "The
Farmer Newsletter" at www.MuhamamdFarms.com have taught our
audience about the Black farmers’ struggle and the deteriorating safety of our food supply. In
that same period we downloaded from the Internet and catalogued articles pertaining to these same
issues in the "News" section of our website.

We put the list of articles in a format that one could see the progression of events and issues
through time. This was done in an attempt to help the reader grow into understanding the
relationship between "cause and effect" throughout this time period. We understood that
with such a vast deluge of information that has been made available by the Internet, people might
get lost in the "flood" without understanding the value of the information provided.

Patterns move through time like a "snake". The 10% would have you to believe that every
thing is a coincidence and that anyone that sees these "patterns" is a paranoid
"conspiracy theorist". On the other hand the courts set up by this same ruling 10% will
put you in jail based on "coincidences" which they call circumstantial evidence. If they
have enough "coincidences" and a "motive" then they put you in jail.

How many incidents of "co incidents" does a people need to understand that a people who
put them in slavery over 400 years ago, declared them 3/5ths of a man in 1776 and still pay them
wages 200 years later based on 3/5ths of white folks income, have a "motive" for continued
oppression and genocide? We suggest that you now take the time to go to and just look at the titles
of the articles published under "The Farmer Newsletter" starting at the most recent one
listed at the top and go down the page back to January of 2001. We also suggest that you go to the
"News" section and look at the titles from the recent one,
"U.S. District Court Denies Motion to Modify Black Farmer Law Suit" back to "Cocaine
tied to heart attacks" in January of 2001.

In January of 2001 our "Farmer Newsletter" article was called "Black farmers
lawsuit: A bunch of crap". In November of 2004 we reported "Constitutional Committee Hears
Complaints on the Black Farmers’ Lawsuit". In other words it has taken the Congress four
years to finally look into the allegations that we brought forward not only in the 2001 article but
as far back as March of 1999 when the Black farmers went to the "fairness hearing" in
Federal Court in D.C. to protest provisions of the lawsuit. We even went so far as to video tape the
progress of the lawsuit from 1998 through 2001 and presented to members of the House Committee on
Agriculture a documentary called "Snake in the Reparations Grass". An article by the same
title is also found in the list of the "Farmer Newsletter"
which tracks the events from the lies that were told to the Black farmers by their lawyers, to Black
farmers going to jail to protest the lawsuit, to the final admittance by the monitor of the Black
farmers’ lawsuit that the lawyers lied to Black farmers and the court.

The result of the lies by the lawyers and the refusal of Congress and the media to listen to the
farmers’ complaints is the continued loss of land by Black people and the loss of the Black farm
population as these old warriors die while waiting on justice. How long will these incidents of
willful theft of land by the United States Department of Agriculture, denial of justice to Black
farmers and the continued deterioration of the health of Black people, be ignored as mere
coincidence?

We at Muhammad Farms have attempted through these articles to let the rest of the Black community
know why we work so hard to prepare for what we see as a time of famine for Black people. Some of
our readers understand and have increased their support for the "Three Year Economic Savings
Program". Some may still need to be convinced.

Now the country is hearing the call for "Reparations" for Black people in America. We
presented the documentary "Snake in the Reparations Grass" to warn the
movement about the "game" that was played on Black farmers so that the larger body of 40
million Black people would not be seduced by shallow offers of cash such as $50,000 per family. The
history of the Black farmers’ struggle indicates that America would much rather give out money to
non-land owners than give land back which was stolen. This indicates a more defined agenda of piling
Black people up on concrete where they can be more easily exterminated through violence or
poisoning. This last statement may seem like a great "leap of faith" or alarmism. However,
we present the past articles and news clipping over the last four years as evidence for our case.

The Black farmers have suffered because their leadership had ignored the laws of "cause and
effect" and did not want to accept that a "snake" was in their mist after being
promptly warned. We remember that the lawyers for the Black farmers recruited respected Civil Rights
leaders such as Rev. Joseph Lowery to tell the Black farmers to trust the well meaning white Jewish
lead attorney that eventually sold them down the river.

Now as we move towards a call for Reparations and a return to Washington, DC to celebrate the 10^th
Anniversary of the Million Man March, we must pay better attention to the relationships between
"cause and effect". One may ask how Minister Louis Farrakhan, who does not allow the
members of his organization to carry weapons and even admonishes the larger Black community to turn
their weapons in, expect the government of the United States to listen to his demands for
Reparations? What "carrot or stick" can he present to the most powerful military and
richest nation on earth that would make them respond favorably?

The title of this present article relates to understanding the relationship between "cause
and effect". The continued loss of land and health by Black people is "the price of
ignoring the laws of cause and effect" and faking ignorance of the motives of their open enemy.
We worked diligently to teach the Black farmers the tricks of the US government and showed them how
and when they were being used each step of the way, but they refused to listen and therefore
suffered the consequences.

However, today the ruling class is very upset over the recent severe weather patterns affecting
America and the tsunami in the Indian Ocean as being some type of divine intervention. This line of
thinking is very interesting in light of the question "Is God Dead?" being asked in the
1960’s and 70’s.

We highlighted possible results of a new series of "cause and effects" in a front page
article called "The Hand of
God: Hurricanes and Mighty Snow".  We suggest that you read this article
and analyze the series of events after Minister Farrakhan gave his press conference on May 3, 2004
when he warned America to "watch the weather". According to the Bible and Holy Qur’an,
"Pharaoh" ignored the power of the rods of Moses and Aaron to inflict plagues. Will the
modern "Pharaoh" of today ignore the plea for justice from a modern "Moses" or
"Aaron" who may understand the "laws of cause and effect" and may even have
contact with the "Primal Cause"?
