All of Iraq's sects share the same underlying holy book, the Qur'an. Iraq will overcome feuding between sects to create a united country when they correct their understanding of what the Qur'an says. That is a simple matter of lifting up the truth of what is clearly written in their Qur'an. Whether it will be a peaceful country depends on the government and coalition will let the nation be ruled by what is written or not. What is written may surprise you as you realize how easy it could have been to bring peace.

For those who do not understand the power of a holy book, consider that these people believe in a God who sees all they do. The obedient people will enjoy peace and abundance in a garden paradise with pure spouses. The disobedient will suffer a horrific life, even after death. They are commanded to fight against evil and prize the good. This is the underlying understanding in all God's holy books to all religions.

It is not necessary that they agree on boundaries because once the religion becomes one, the government would be one and boundaries will not matter to them, though they will star in their areas. Now it looks like these people cannot come together. However, none of them are following the word God He gave to their revered prophet Muhammad, and we see how repulsive insulting him is. We saw death threats by Iran's Ayatollah Khomeini against Salmon Rushdi for his book Satanic Verses when the book was published in 1988, calling the book blasphemy and condemning him to death for "insulting Islam, the prophet Muhammed and the holy Koran." More recently we saw the condemnation and violence related to the Danish cartoonist for insulting their prophet. Once they realize that they are insulting their prophet and the God who sent him, they will bow before the word of God and submit for that is true Islam.

This fervor will unite the people. The true message of the Qur'an, repeated in many ways is to follow the whole Bible. They are expecting a Mahdi who will purify their religion and unite the world with Islam. Purifying their religion means it is not now pure. The correction will make true Islam which means submission to the will and word of God and that will take over the world. Islam of today is not submitted much as Christians are not following Jesus and Jews are not following Moses and the Prophets.

No one needs to fear true Islam. Muhammad was a prophet mostly to Christians and Jews who were not following the whole Bible,
