the masque of the red death.

An Italian peasant is wandering through the woods.
He lives in the region of Val Daosta.
It is the 13th century.
The whole area is ruled by a devil worshiping Count.
The Count habitually tortures and murders and rapes with impunity whoever he will from among the general populace.
The privations of the Count have left the whole region devoid of life.
There is nothing.
Nothing cultural, political or economic.
Nothing.
The people live in fear.
Too afraid to engage in commerce.
Too abjectly terrified to seek their own liberation.
The market places are empty.
The fields are untended.
That is the situation.
It seems hopeless.
The lone peasant in the woods is a simple man near starvation.
In the woods he encounters the angel of death.
The angel of death says to the man: "Go to the people of the village. Tell them that the hour of their redemption is at hand."
By redemption he means he's about to lay waste the already desolate region with the plague, and that when he's finished the Count and all the other oppressors will be burning in the nethermost regions of hell.
A lot of good people are going to die as well.
The peasant hurries away.
That's the Roger Corman vision of the opening scene in Edgar Allen Poe's The Masque Of The Red Death.
It popped into my mind as the first crocodile tears in the liberal atheistic media began to fall this week for the people of Haiti.
A plethora of half wit journalists were already musing with strange high pseudo intellectualism as to how a merciful God could permit such natural disasters.
It's funny how humanitiarian these abortionists get when they consider earthquake victims.
I am wary of these thoughts.
I am wary of thinking I know why God does anything in these matters because I know I could end up setting myself in judgement on God.

Or setting my imagination up as being on a par with his providence.
Nonetheless.
When I contemplate the Holocaust of Jews during World War Two, I sense the mystical possibility that while the Holocaust was an attempt by the devil to destroy the Jews,,God in part repudiated it by using it to bring about the firstlings of the triumph of light in the reestablishment of the State of Israel.

When I think of the Jihad  attacks on New York a decade ago, I sense that from the abysmal Muslim murders of innocent airline passengers and office workers, from that lousy cataclysm, perhaps God brought the firstlings of judgement to desolate far distant lands, the shadow of the scythe consequently falling on the lawless psychopathic tyrannies of Saddam Hussein in Iraq and the Taliban and Al Qaeda in Afghanistan and all their attendant Islamists who delight in cutting off the noses of school girls or disfiguring teenagers with acid for daring not to wear a veil, judgement on all of them I say, for in no other circumstances would those particular Islamist murder regimes have encountered the business end of the American army, the only army on earth they fear, in no circumstances whatsover I tell you would they have come up against the Americans, other than by the brief incomprehensible unthinkable victory permitted to satanic evil on Nine Eleven when murdering Muslim cowards slaughtered thousands from the skies above New York.
And then there's Haiti.
Forget for a moment the hand wringing nonsense being recycled through liberal atheistic newspapers and television programmes at the moment.
Here is the news.
For at least the last fifty years Haiti has been ruled by a devil worshiping cult.
For most of that time the devil worshiping cult has been administered by members of the Duvalier family.
But it has survived the Duvaliers.
The Duvalier family's enforcers are a Voodoo gang called the Ton Ton Macoutes.
The Ton Ton Macoutes still terrorise the general populace in Haiti through eye gougings, nose cuttings, head hackings, rapes, pornography, drug dealing, child abuse and any shade of murder you care to name.
The Ton Ton Macoutes have continued to rule Haiti from the shadows during the past decade while United Nations peace keepers swan around the island doing sweet feck all about it.
This earth quake may be the hour of deliverance for the people of Haiti.
It may even be a mercy.
All those fake charities and United Nations incompetents who have spent years posing for the cameras on Haiti, need to take this opportunity to put a stop to the Ton Ton Macoute and their devil worshiping murder cult finally and forever.
Otherwise they need to get out of the way and go home and leave the way clear for someone who knows how to get the job done.
The people of Haiti would be better off without any more fake assistance or crocodile tears.
They people of Haiti have had a surfeit of humanitarian aid which serves only to prop up the murderers who oppress them.
The people of Haiti need no more charity and no more devil worshiping drug dealers living off charity.
The people of Haiti need deliverance.
