(The following is the summary of the excerpt from Master Ryuho Okawa’s lecture titled "Self Help and Patriotism” held at Tokyo Shoshinkan on February 13, 2011)

The world may be led to chaos after the resignation of President Hosni Mubarak. Mubarak’s government has long been supported by the U.S. so that Israel would not be attacked by surrounding Arab nations. When I saw President Obama praising this revolution by the Egyptian people, I began to wonder whether he has studied international politics.

President Obama has finally let go of President Mubarak. President Obama himself has been creating the situations that have led to his country being forsaken by these pro-American countries.

A similar situation is happening in Okinawa as well. We have to know that the U.S. is shrinking away from its role as a global policeman.

Israel is surrounded by Muslim countries including Iran, which has a strong intention to be nuclear armed, as well as Saudi Arabia, and Egypt. This fact may increase the possibility of “Armageddon” or “Final War” which could mean “Israel’s extinction” from the earth.

President Obama is too naïve to be aware that the U.S. is declining in its role as the world leader.
