In the morning of 24 December 2008, I wrote my letter of "Energy Secretary Nominee, Steven Chu" that contains:

"…….In the last paragraph of my 29 November 2008 letter "Air New Zealand Crash After Your 'Back to School' ", I wrote about ".......also like to remind me of the danger of my presence in this world that could sometimes triggered disasters, as if related with the Chaos Theory of Butterfly Effect, ‘the flap of a butterfly’s wings in Brazil set off a tornado in Texas’, a phrase also appeared in the Steven Spielberg's movie Jurassic Park.......". The mentioning of  "the flap of a butterfly’s wings in Brazil set off a tornado in Texas" based on an article at wikipedia.org. Nevertheless it actually made me feel uncomfortable, because President Bush came from Texas……"

Later on in the evening of 24 December 2008, there was the news-ticker of "Brazil will buy 50 military transport helicopters and five submarines from France".

Combined with previous news of Wednesday 17 December 2008 about "……….Latin American leaders meeting in Brazil this week couldn't resist poking fun at U.S. President George W. Bush over his recent shoe-throwing incident in Iraq. 'Please, nobody take off your shoes,' Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva joked to reporters at the start of a news conference on Wednesday…..", it immediately made me feel like I had opened the game of "Jumanji" or "Zathura" that could any time invite disasters.

Yesterday I immediately search for the causes of World War 1 and 2, while wondered does this recent economic crisis could impact certain world leaders to plunge into World War 3 ?

Of course I hope it would not be that bad, because everybody knows that with the advance of today’s modern arsenal, with a bunch of Weapons of Mass Destructions, nuclear weapons, chemical weapons, biological weapons, the consequence of triggering World War 3 is pushing our selves into the doomsday.

When yesterday I was searching for the photos about Brazil purchasing French military equipment, I did that in Orange internet shop, and I was using the computer exactly across the front door. At that moment the front door was opened. By the time my eyes stared at this photo of Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva covering one of his eyes, all of a sudden the win blew harder behind me for a second.

I had no idea what was the message of that wind. But according to some religious scholars, approaching the doomsday there will be a huge creature with one eye, the Dajjal.

And I had a bad experience with the word Dajjal. In 2004, approximately one month before the Asian Tsunami that killed more than 200 thousand people, I went to a gallery to offer my paintings. During the interview, the curator made an intriguing question: "Are you really a Dajjal?"

I was not hearing it well, and as usual I often just nodded and said yes to such strange question in a conversation. When a few weeks later the Asian Tsunami appeared, it made me feel like the Dajjal was angry because I claimed my self as a Dajjal by nodding and saying yes to the question.

European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso arrives at the start of a two-day European Union leaders summit in Brussels December 11, 2008. Poland and Germany aim to pave the way for a European Union deal on tackling climate change with proposals to break a deadlock on who should foot the bill for the effort. The summit also aims to win accord on a 200 billion euro ($260 billion) stimulus package aimed at wrenching the bloc out of recession, and to encourage Ireland to call a new referendum on an EU reform treaty already rejected by its voters this year.

When yesterday I searched for the photos of Brazil purchasing French military equipment, I found a photo of France's President Nicolas Sarkozy, Brazil's President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, and European Commission President Jose Manuel Durao Barroso pose for photographers at a press conference in Rio de Janeiro, Monday, Dec. 22, 2008.

It was then I realized that European Commission President Jose Manuel Durao Barroso looks a little bit like my old friend Ikang Fauzy, an Indonesian rock singer.

His first name "Ikang" is like Indonesian word "ikan" which means "fish". When a person is fishing, usually that person will require "bait".

So this case of Brazil purchasing French military equipment after my letter of "Energy Secretary Nominee, Steven Chu" that contains my feeling uncomfortable of quoting ‘the flap of a butterfly’s wings in Brazil set off a tornado in Texas’, because president Bush came from Texas, could be another case of my being the "bait" that trigger disaster. In this case, the disaster of World War 3.

Subject: From "Casus Belli" To "The Case Is Closed"

 

 

The fact of Brazil purchasing French military equipment after I wrote about my feeling uncomfortable of quoting ‘the flap of a butterfly’s wings in Brazil set off a tornado in Texas’, because president Bush came from Texas, inevitably makes me feel like I can become the "Casus Belli" for World War 3.

"Casus Belli", an event or action that justifies or allegedly justifies a war or conflict. ( see: www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/casus+belli and en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casus_belli )

In June 1914, a political assassination provided the trigger that led to the outbreak of World War I. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria at Sarajevo in Austria-Hungary by Gavrilo Princip, a Yugoslav nationalist from Bosnia, Austrian subject and member of Young Bosnia, was used by Austria-Hungary as a casus belli for declaring war on Serbia. The Russian Empire started to mobilize its troops in defense of its ally Serbia, which resulted in the German Empire declaring war on Russia in support of its ally Austria-Hungary. Very quickly, after the involvement of France, the Ottoman Empire and the British Empire, five of the six great European powers became involved in the first European general war since the Napoleonic Wars.

World War 1 took place from 1914 to 1918. It seems related with my recent cancelled of shooting for Zona 80 program, scheduled at 14 December 2008, and the religious gathering of my friends at 18 December 2008 that I did not attend.

The word "casus" is like an Indonesian word "kasus" which means "case", like in problem case, criminal case, solving the case, and so on. While "belli" is like an Indonesian word "beli" which means purchase.

For me, rather than becoming the "casus belli" of World War 3 that can lead to the doomsday, I prefer to have "The Case Is Closed" after you purchase my 15 paintings. Meaning that the case of my being a bait that trigger disasters, will be closed by your purchasing my 15 paintings.

May God help me with this
