Dr. K. A. Paul of Global Peace Initiative Brokers Peace to Save Orphans and Widows in War Torn Regions and has negotiated to stop Iraq War Brokered Peace in Liberia but Bush Administration “Stole Credit”

Press Conference Date: July 31, 2008
Place: National Press Club (Holeman Lounge)
Time: 12:00 Noon

WASHINGTON , D.C. , July 30, 2008 – On Thursday morning, July 31, 2008, Dr. K.A. Paul, an American resident born in India and the world’s most popular Christian evangelist, filed a complaint in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., against President George W. Bush, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, the President of the Congress Party and the Prime Minister and a host of U.S. government agencies, including the Department of Homeland Security and the Federal Aviation Administration, and their heads, for civil rights and other illegal conduct designed to silence him and destroy his non-profit organization, “Global Peace Initiative, Inc.” (“ GPI ”).

Dr. Paul and GPI , whose mission is to broker peace in war torn regions of the world, such as Iraq, where innocent women and children are being harmed and killed, and who rescues orphans and widows around the world, is widely known to have brokered the peace in Liberia, when a few years ago he brought then President Charles Taylor to Christ and convinced him to resign and leave the country. At the time, Dr. Paul and GPI were coordinating their efforts with President Bush, Condoleezza Rice and others in the Bush Administration, whom Dr. Paul had personally supported and helped elect in 2000. However, after his successful efforts to remove Taylor, Secretary Rice, and President Bush’s assistant Jendayi Frazier, and others in the Administration, double crossed Dr. Paul and GPI , by having Taylor extradited from Nigeria, where he had fled, to Sierra Leone, and then arrested. As importantly, Bush, Rice and others in the Administration claimed credit for removing Taylor, an historic event in which they played little to no constructive role.

As alleged in the complaint, after Dr. Paul spoke out concerning the dishonesty of the Bush Administration, it has made a concerted effort, with others, such as the Prime Minister of India, to silence and destroy him and GPI. The complaint, a copy of which can be found here and which will be distributed at the press conference, alleges that Dr. Paul was then harassed, wiretapped, illegally detained at airports and elsewhere, had GPI ’s plane effectively grounded by the FAA, donors scared away, and otherwise severely damaged by the Defendants through a series of illegal and unconstitutional acts.

Now, Dr. Paul and GPI , like many Americans, are fighting back. Having had the Bush Administration and its accomplices try to ruin him and GPI ’s mission to save orphans and widows, all because Plaintiffs’ oppose his foreign policies, such as the Iraq war, Dr. Paul and GPI are fighting back in court.

Dr. Paul and other supporters will be present at the press conference to explain why, as a former supporter of President Bush, he has now been forced to sue for $10,000,000,000 (10 Billion dollars) in damages and ask for injunctive relief. Half of this money will automatically be used for building orphanages, like our own project Charity City , in the poorest cities around the world.

Dr. Paul and GPI are being represented by Larry Klayman and The Klayman Law Firm. Mr. Klayman is widely known for taking on the powerful in government as the founder of Judicial Watch and now Freedom Watch.

Dr. Paul, Rev. Fauntroy In Bad Health, Fasting In Quarantined Hotel, Persecuted By Corrupt Party Leaders

BANGALORE, INDIA – U.S.-based evangelical leader Dr. K.A. Paul and the Honorable Rev. Walter Fauntroy, a former member of the U.S. House and civil rights leader, marked more than 1-week in hunger strike to reinstate a peace mission with Deva Gowda and 25 other Indian Members of Parliament to Iran, Libya, Sudan, Venezuela and Syria. The peace mission was cancelled by former Congress leader K. Natwar Singh under corrupt terms, resulting in the death of thousands of orphans and widows who could not receive aid from the mission.

Dr. Paul and Rev. Fauntroy began their indefinite hunger strike on Tuesday, July 3, joined by pastors who run some of the largest churches in Karnataka and Bangalore. Their health is in dire condition, but they refuse to leave a motel they’ve taken over to fast in Bannatta Park at Hudson Circle in Bangalore. In the last 48-hours alone, authorities canceled permission for their hunger strikes and have made numerous attempts to arrest them and their delegation of 50 orphan children, 150 widows know as “Little Theresas” and 50 mission coordinators, all camped out at the Hotel Comfort in Bannatta Park.

Rev. Fauntroy, who was a chief organizer for civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., said he is fighting for peace and justice for widows and orphans and is willing to die for this cause. "I’m with Dr. Paul because if Mahamta Gandhi and Martin Luther King were alive today, they'd be standing with him too,” said Rev. Fauntroy. “Gandhi and King were to yesterday what Dr. Paul and his global peace initiative are to today.”

A few weeks after a Delhi High Court issued notices to Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy, External Affairs Minister Pranab Mukharjee and former Congress leader K. Natwar Singh on a defamation suit filed by Dr. Paul, Congress Party leaders and activists attempted to assassinate and desecrate Dr. Paul and his mission. Dozens of effigies of the evangelical leader were reportedly burned and many of his assistants were beaten and injured. The court summons marked the first time an Indian foreign minister and powerful chief minister were are being held accountable for corruption by an Indian court.

Dr. Y.S Rajasekhara Reddy
June 05, 2007 Chief Minister
Andhra Pradesh

Dear Mr. Reddy,

I am writing this letter today out of a grave concern that some wrong course of action may be under consideration. Frankly, after much prayer, I’m concerned for my very life.

You will recall that we had a detailed one-hour face-to-face conversation on Feb 1, 2007 in the presence of my brother and U.S. former presidential candidate Dr. Walter Fauntroy at your home, arranged by Finance Minister Rosaiah and Mr. Sudhakar Reddy. Both in our meeting and in numerous follow up calls prior to and after your meeting with Sonia Gandhi we discussed in great detail how the Congress Party leader, Madame Sonia Gandhi, in July 2005, at the request of the U.S. Administration through its Ambassador and others, insisted that our Peace Mission to Iran, Syria, Libya and Venezuela be cancelled. As you are aware, this mission was to be hosted by former Prime Minister Deve Gowda and twenty-five members of Parliament from all major political parties.

At the instruction of Madame Sonia Gandhi, the Prime Minister’s office contacted then Foreign Minister Natwar Singh to call each of these countries as well as Deve Gowda and cancel the peace mission. On Feb 2, 2007, Mr. Natwar Singh reluctantly confirmed to us in the presence of others that he did not act on his own, rather he acted on the instructions of his leader. Former Prime Minister Deve Gowda also confirmed by phone that he had been asked not to participate in the peace mission by Mr. Singh on July 3rd of 2005. We’ve been careful to document these facts and many of these conversations. Even then, twelve Members of Parliament traveled with me on Global Peace Initiative’s Boeing 747 to the U.S. along with some of our orphan children, to a State Dinner hosted by Evander Holyfield and then Governor Mike Huckabee, now one of the U.S. Presidential candidates.

On July 3rd 2005, Prime Minister Gowda confirmed to us that he had received several calls from Mr. Natwar Singh, and later confirmed these calls to Oscar Fernandez. Myself and many of my team members worked diligently to meet with Madame Sonia Gandhi for thirty days. When she refused to meet with us for even just a short meeting, we felt compelled to demonstrate outside her home on August 3, 2005 at 10 Janapath with hundreds of widows and orphans. Then without choice, as she was undoubtedly concerned about the bad publicity, she sent her advisor, Mr. Oscar Fernandez and Madame Dalmia to arrange my meeting with Madame Sonia Gandhi. In the presence of one of my international coordinators and Oscar Fernandez, for 18 minutes, I confronted her with a broken heart and asked her why she and her leadership would cancel our peace mission at the request of the Bush/ Rice Administration. She acted as if she did not know anything, however I challenged her with the proof we have—and I told her that Mahatma Gandhiji and thousands have died to bring freedom to our great nation from Western slavery, and after nearly 58 years, India sold our foreign policy to an unpopular U.S. Administration. The Bush/ Rice Administration used every means possible to destroy me and my mission, which was subsequent to my success in stopping so many conflicts including Liberia and Haiti, primarily because of my opposition to the U.S. Iraq war. What amazed me more than anything was how the Congress Party leaders, and especially Sonia Gandhi, would take such a bold step to sell out our country, which we all dearly love.

I have traveled 108 countries, have counseled more than 63 Presidents and Prime Ministers, have been privileged to speak to more people than any other humanitarian or evangelist, helping unite the world with peoples of all faiths, at times millions of people gathered in a single peace rally, I’ve been endorsed by 24 U.S. Governors—all the while promoting the message of Jesus, the Prince of Peace, and the values of Mahatma Gandhiji. I’ve refused to become a U.S. Citizen and have remained an Indian who is proud of my heritage. I’ve tirelessly promoted India throughout the world while rescuing 100’s of thousands of widows and orphans.

I’ve spent hundreds of hours over the past two years with both meetings and phone calls with virtually all the Congress Party leaders, including Sonia Gandhi, Prime Minister Singh, Mr. Sushil Kumar Sindhe, Mrs. Ambika Soni, Mr. Ghulam Nabi Azad, Mr. Ahmed Patel, Mr. Salman Khurshid, Mr. Santosh Kumar Bagarodia and several others some of them who traveled with me. In my life of global humanitarian work for 25 years, I’ve refused to spend any time with politicians, and have rather chosen to spend my time only with widows, orphans and the poorest of the poor. I’ve refused dinners with political leaders in many countries unless there was a need related to my work with the poor or for the sake of peace. For example, in India Mr. Chandra Babu Naidu and Former Speaker Balayogi both have attended our summits, peace rallies and have visited our Charity City. While they were in power for 10 years, I’ve never visited their home or their office even one time. Yet, recently in the past two years, I visited these Congress political leaders in their homes and waited in their offices, I’ve made numerous phone calls and begged them, including you, to avoid me having to expose the facts and the truth—how Sonia Gandhi by canceling the peace mission brought a great curse to our nation and to the Congress Party.

After much prayer, I told you that the Congress Party would continue to lose power if you did not as a responsible Chief Minister properly inform Madame Sonia Gandhi of my good support and following in our state which is key to your Party. But then you informed me in February 2007 after your meeting with Sonia Gandhi that she does not want to meet with me or deal with me. Since then you have lost three key Indian States. Millions have committed to pray for me and for the cause of peace. Your political agenda has worked against peace and against orphans. You both have caused incalculable damage to me personally, and more importantly, to my work with widows and orphans globally. Further, you’ve damaged your party as well as India’s prospects to contribute to world peace through our otherwise successful initiatives. You are intoxicated with your power and you think you can forget about God and do whatever you want. I have humbly and repeatedly warned you, nonetheless, you even asked me during our four hour meeting at my Charity City on December 9th 2003, to help your political campaign by giving you $5 million dollars. I told you that nowhere in the world has any politician ever asked me for money, but I was prepared to help you through my friends in the U.S. without giving you money out of my humanitarian funds, which would affected my widows and orphans, something I have never considered. Is the fact that you did not receive the $5 million the reason why you are personally upset with me? Why would you not answer so many of my calls after March 16th after you received a warning call from the Present Foreign Minister Mukharjee?. Why would you completely avoid talking to me? Why would you cancel your brother’s visit to Venezuela? Therefore, I’ve prayed for you for the past two months, after you backed off your support for the Gandhi King Paul Peace Center I feel in my spirit that you have been inspired by evil spirits to silence me at any cost from exposing the truth. As I repeatedly told you, I’ve documented numerous hours of video, which if anything happens to my life, will be revealed to the Indian national leaders, such as Mr. Nidu, Mr. Amar Singh, and Mr. Advani, with whom I spent several hours because of my grave concerns. Of course, this would be publicized throughout the State and India where tens of millions of my followers who know of my unselfish living without owning any personal properties in the world and helping millions of widows and orphans.

Please understand how important it is for you to have a change of heart and this remains my prayer. I do not fear death—if I did, I would not have gone into the most troubled spots of the world and many war zones.

Sincerely for Global Peace,

Dr. KA Paul President & Founder

CC; Madame Sonia Gandhi, Prime Minister Singh, Mr. Sushil Kumar Sindhe, Mrs. Ambika Soni, and a list of confidential leaders.

In an intriguing cover story in The New Republic (TNR) outlining the life and work of Dr. K.A. Paul, Michelle Cottle described him as the world’s most popular evangelist. In an article filled with journalistic excellence and integrity, she also asked searching questions about why he was “not making it” in America.

To be described as an Evangelist is an honor and is warmly embraced by K.A. Paul in most parts of the world; however, in America, the term has come to mean something entirely different. When one thinks of an evangelist here, it often means a religious leader who appears on television in flashy clothing. They are usually living lives of elegance and excess while inflaming the masses to join their culture war—and all while they are constructing more mansions, building bigger business empires, and buying the best of everything.

For that reason, K.A. Paul is uncomfortable with the title, at least in the terms Americans think of an “Evangelist.” Most Americans’ connotations of the title do not even remotely define who K.A. Paul is and what he does—as a matter of fact, in many cases he is exactly the opposite. And even if it is perfectly understood, the title Evangelist still only partially describes him. It was once noted that K.A. Paul has a combination of the defining characteristics of four people who changed the world: Mahatma Gandhi (peace leader), Mother Teresa (servant of the poor), Dr. Martin Luther King (human rights leader determined to end injustice), and Billy Graham (evangelist). While this truly describes K.A. Paul and his work, it leaves him searching for an appropriate title.

There are at least seven major differentiators between K.A. Paul and America’s concept of evangelists.

1. Although he would never condemn or criticize others for doing so, K.A. Paul has never collected an offering at any of his rallies—whether a small crowd of 300 or a massive rally of millions. We are not aware of any other evangelist who has ever done this.
   
   
2. Since 1989, K.A. Paul has spoken in approximately 1,100 houses of worship. One hundred percent of any offerings given to him went to support widows and orphans, without saving even $100 anywhere in the world for personal use.
   
   
3. Being born Hindu, and now a follower of Christ, K.A. Paul has made uniting people part of his mission. Examples include Manila where after years of firm opposition to evangelical leaders like Billy Graham having rallies there, the late Cardinal Sin and Mike Velarde, pastor of the world’s largest Catholic parish warmly welcomed K.A. Paul and joined him in leading a massive rally there. In Gudivaba, India, more than 300 Hindu priests attended K.A. Paul’s Peace Rally. K.A. Paul has been the keynote speaker at the right-leaning Southern Baptist Convention National Pastor’s Conference, and to the left-leaning humanist organization, Alliance for the New Humanity, organized by Deepak Chopra. Being accepted by such widely disparate groups and being able to comfortably minister to them is not a trait of most American evangelists. On October 23, 2005 the leader of the world’s one billion Hindus traveled to personally meet K.A. Paul, publicly demonstrated his support for K.A. Paul’s work, and asked for his prayers. Upon his departure, the 82-yearold Guru declared, "Dr. Paul, you have me for life!"
   
   
4. The world’s most popular evangelist has never sold a book or a tape.
   
   
5. While most of America’s evangelists, televangelists, and pulpits thunder God’s judgment on evil/enemy rulers, K.A. Paul reaches out to them with an appeal for God’s mercy on them, and an appeal for their mercy on their subjects. Besides the predictable meetings with Presidents, Prime Ministers, and Sovereigns, K.A. Paul has also met with most of the world’s most hardened despots and tyrants. Astonishingly, K.A. Paul has been instrumental in stopping or averting five wars in seven countries using this approach—and it has all been done by following one of Christ’s simplest precepts: it is not the healthy who need a physician, but the sick.
   
   
6. In sharp contrast to America’s evangelists, K.A. Paul doesn’t own a piece of property anywhere in the world— not even the $60,000 house where he resides.
   
   
7. Again, in stark contrast to other leading evangelists, K.A. Paul’s salary (not counting $582 / mo. housing allowance for the $60,000 house where he and his family reside) has averaged less than $2,000.00 per month for the 12 years he has been a green card holder. (His tax returns are available to the public.)
   

It is very important that K.A. Paul not be perceived wrongly or outright marginalized because of a title he never sought. His life work is to help the poor, the hurting, and the dispossessed. He tries to assist those who can never pay him back, and reaches out to those no one else wants.

That is the defining purpose of his life, no matter what title is used to describe it.

K.A. Paul and Global Peace Initiative."

"My wife, Martha and I are excited to be part of the G.U.M. ministry with our time, money and prayers.

What Celebrities Are Saying

"Personally I got to spend some time with Dr. K.A. Paul. It didn’t take me long to see his heart for the lost...doing the works of Jesus, feeding the poor, taking care of the widows and orphans and preaching the Good News. God has raised him up for such a time as this."

Ricky Skaggs, Legendary Country Singer

"Dr. K.A. Paul, I am John Tesh, live here in Lagos, Nigeria. There are one million people on this Olympic Ground. Last night, it was estimated we had over three millions of people. There are many widows and orphans here. Just last night, it was Dr. Paul who took six or seven of the orphans, and found homes for them. He does this all over the world. He did it in India. We’ve seen him doing it there. Earlier today, this morning in fact, we saw him with ten thousand widows, giving them a charge to go out and follow Mother Teresa’s life to go out to be Little Teresas...to go out to the streets of Lagos and encourage people and help them. He also sends money to help the ones who help those in Lagos.

What you see here is a sea of humanity, in Lagos. What we’ve been doing all night is praying… praying and fasting, asking for help for those in that horrible tragedy of September 11 in New York City. We’ve been praying for the leaders of all countries to understand the plight of America, and other countries in need. We’ve been praying for healing for this nation, here in Nigeria, and others. I’ve never seen such a deep worship in any country in my life. And you are still watching live here, uniting with people all over the world, 200 million people are watching this broadcast. It certainly has been our honor to bring it to you."

Please know, it is our honor to be a part of it. I’ve met some incredible people on this trip.

We’ve learned through power, we can and will defeat evil, we’ve learned that even if you haven’t eaten for three days, and you don’t know when your next meal is coming, where it’s coming from, you can still worship Jesus, and the God is the answer to all our problems."

John Tesh

"Dear Dr. Paul,

You have dedicated your life with evangelical zeal to the betterment of human beings in all parts of the world. You have been an instrument of God in bringing economic and spiritual nourishment to those who are hungry and deprived."

Dr. Deepak Chopra, Best Selling Author

"The best description I can give of his work is a combination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Mother Teresa, and Mahatma Gandhi. Let me give just a few examples of why I say that.

"Like Mother Teresa, Dr. Paul has an uncompromising focus on abandoned children and women. Mother Teresa was very effective in her work, building several modest children’s homes, and training 5,000 women to do the same work she was doing. Likewise, Dr. Paul has built several children’s homes, including the world’s largest near Hyderabad, India. Inspired by the legacy of Mother Teresa, with whom he occasionally worked. Dr. Paul’s work resembles that of Dr. Martin Luther King in his advocacy of human rights. He has targeted corruption among public officials, the caste system, the dowry system and inequality toward women in the developing countries in which he works.

Like his fellow countryman Mahatma Gandhi, Dr. Paul has become one of the world’s most prominent leaders for peace. He has successfully stopped the Burundi genocide through the Burundi Peace Accord. Even more recently, he secured the exile of Liberian President Charles Taylor to avoid war there and successfully intervened with Haitian rebel leader Guy Phillippe to avert war in Haiti. Additionally, he has successfully negotiated the end of conflict in Ivory Coast, Ethiopia, and between India and Pakistan. He is truly a man of peace."

Mr. Evander Holyfield

"Liberian security forces encouraged former Liberian President Charles Taylor to flee, his spiritual adviser said Sunday, calling into question Liberia’s repeated denials that it was complicit in Taylor’s attempt to evade a war crimes trial. Taylor’s spiritual adviser, the Indian evangelist Kilari Anand Paul, said Taylor told him in a phone call from jail on Saturday that State Security Service agents came with two vehicles to his Calabar villa the night of March 28. Taylor said ‘they escorted him to the north, way off toward Cameroon and, in the middle of nowhere, told him to go. He said, “Where are you guys going?” And they said they received instructions to leave him and they left,’according to Paul, who spoke from his home in Houston."
