(Tokyo Bay in Summer)The Stones Would Immediately Cry Out
(Les pierres seraient immédiatement crier)
On the last Friday night, the Japan's NHK satellite TV channel rebroadcast the Iranian film "President Mir Qanbar."

It might be apocalyptic for some of you, since it features an old man like Abraham, his follower on a donkey cart, and a nameless shepherd who gave a bowl of cool water to the old man on his quixotic campaign through a vast and bright-brown winter's dry field of the Iranian Plateau.
Indeed, the hero of the Iranian film is an impossible, very poor candidate for the Iranian President, though he is a concrete fact just like Abraham 4000 years ago.
(As a humble proof of strong interest in the Islamic culture among some Japanese [if you especially love films on the Middle East]:

Anyway, it is nice to close a Friday night with something so hopeful if so far, though it is the Sunday noon now here.)
Luk 19:39 - And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
Luk 19:40 - And he answered and said unto them, I tell you that, if these should hold their peace, the stones would immediately cry out.
