O ye individuals of
humanity, find ye means for the stoppage of this wholesale murder and
bloodshed. Now is the appointed time! Now is the opportune time! Arise ye, show
ye an effort, put ye forward an extraordinary force, and unfurl ye the Flag of
Universal Peace and dam the irresistible fury of this raging torrent which is
wreaking havoc and ruin everywhere.
- ‘Abdu’l-Baha (‘Star of the West’ vol. 18,
