Bismillah,

I think we should get this picture seen by as many people as possible as quickly as possible.  I saw another angle of this picutre yesterday, but these clearly show happy-go-lucky Israelis, girls, a woman in civilian clothes walking by with a casual smile, soldiers,  and the words the girls are writing are in Hebrew and English.  The English words say From Israel (From Danielle) with love or something like that. 

And Jazzak Allah Khayr to the person from IC who sent me this link.

Salaamu Alaykum 

EDIT:  I followed some other links in this man's site and didn't want them on an Islaamic website from my post especially, so I deleted his link.

Salaams.  Brother AKM, you could post a link here if you like as I've become very busy lately and the email notification is so moody and mercurial.

It's worse than you know but you can do something about it.
Write letters to your representatives. Be kind to one another. Do not
allow your mind to be clouded with hatred. Making peace is dangerous
and hard. You make enemies of people who are ignorant and afraid. Be
very careful how you argue. Make sure that your facts are straight.
Remember that given the chance most of us are very generous and loving
people regardless of our various religions and the severity of our ancient
rules.

As governments and institutions we generally run a constant risk of
being pretty nasty. That's also natural That's how we all protect ourselves
from one and other.

Individually we are mostly wonderful. It's going to get really awful over
the next few weeks possibly months. Remember who you are and start
from there. The whole world needs you me, us at our best right now.

Peace Kindness Tolerance and Love That's how we are going to save the
world.

Dear Daniel,

You are absolutely correct.  Peace has to come from the common, average individual.  There is, quite simply, no other way.

Peace be with you always.......

I got an education today. I went into Haifa to take care of Joey's American
Passport. I was north bound passing the hospital when the
sirens went off. We had no time. The ground was lurching with the waves
of the first impacts south bound motorists ran toward us caught in the
open. we just reached a car dealership when evrything started exploding
around us I made Joey lay down between a wall and a pillar and sheilded
him the best I could with my own body. A soldier maybe two years older
than my son appeared out of nowhere and shielded him the same way
from the other side. Yellow Smoke was coming from the hits and police
and ambulances were converging from all directions. We ran back to the
car I drove three blocks pulled over and we just held each other.

I'm still going to the demonstration in Haifa by the Dan Panorama tonight
against this war.
This is what civilians in Lebenon and Palestine are experiencing every day
and worse but when I felt my sons heart beating under me and looked in
to the eyes of that young soldier who was willing to use his own body as a
shield to help me save my son, I felt defiant and proud that I am a Jew
and that I was a soldier in the IDF because folks this is what its about.
That and I was also thanking Allah I hadn't wet my pants

I respect Islam You are beautiful and neccessary. I do wish we could all
just talk about our differences instead of hurting each other.

Daniel,

I am so glad that you and your son survived that close call.  Don't be like so many others and let the emotion of the moment grow hatred inside of you - far too many are letting this happen.

And certainly if we could all just talk about our differences as people, one to one, it would be a different world....

Peace, ummziba.

Nasrallah You dumb F--- You missed me!!!!!

Bismillah,

We are all very happy that you and Joey are safe.  We will pray for your continued good health along with that of the Lebanese and Gazzans.  This might seem confusing to some for us to pray for both sides to be safe, but I'm sure that Allah, The All-Knowing can work it out.  I pray that all of the weapons malfunction immediately.  Hey, it could happen.

How do you feel about your statement that I bolded above today?

Who do you think should protect the Lebanese people?  Israel should stop bombing.  America should stop sending new and improved weapons, but who should help the Lebanese after the bombing stops?  Maybe Israel for a start.  Just a thought.

Salaamu Alaykum

I am glad that I have the right to speak as a former soldier. My words
have more weight. No one can call me a coward.

I know that a soldiers job is to put ones self in harms way for civilians all
civilians

I just got back from the demonstration.
The police let a bunch of hoodlums loose on us like dogs. I blocked a few
blows let a 200 kilo one armed man rip up my sign that said "Beirut and
Haifa want to live"   I took my wife and went home.

I am proud of that soldier that came to my sons aid earlier today. I'm
proud of the soldiers (my students) that pull reserve duty in Palestine and
keep the regular army out of mischief. As far as feeling defiant... Well...
Feeling defiant is a nice substitution for not wetting ones pants. I was on
the verge of total panic today and I had to shake it off. It lasted three
blocks. What else you wanna know?

And, do you think the demonstration made any difference to anybody?

Peace, ummziba.

I never think these things make a difference at the time and just between
you and I. Activists are the most excruciatingly obnoxious people in the
world. I'd rather stick needles in my eyes than ever spend a minute longer
than I have to with these people...

Have you ever tried to actually talk to a communist? Oy a broch... Thats
sort of a Mega "Oy Vey"   In any case as my wife says, "somewhere in the
universe it is written that I stood up and said that I thought thyis was a
load of bullsh--" So there it is.

Well Daniel, I am glad that there are people in the world who do stand up and say things that need to be said.  And, as for spending time with annoying people, even "oy a broch" doesn't express the rising urge to exit to another universe one feels in their proximity!

You will be O.K.  Thanks for persevering amongst the annoying on behalf of those of us who don't.

Peace, ummziba.

Daniel,

Well, I watched the video.  I was not shocked.  I have certainly seen secular people spout this kind of ***** many times (they even visit here on occasion!). 

The video was very badly edited.  I wonder where it came from, who is behind it and what the entire interview was like?

There are many, many forces at work causing mischief amongst human kind these days - trying very hard to divide and conquer.  Stuff like this video usually does the trick...

Which al-jazeera did you find it on .net or .com?  The first is legit, the second is a propaganda tool of Uncle Sam.

What exactly about it did you find shocking?

Peace, ummziba.

Bismillah,

What shocked you?  The fact that she is an anti-religionist or anti-Muslim or an anti-Arab Arab woman?  Her so-called facts were skewed and incorrect.  Her position will only bring more hardship and hatred to people.

There are many scientists of different religions and nationalities all over this world.  What is she talking about?

Some people in the west mistreat their women in backward ways just as some Muslim men do.  There are mysogynistic men spread out pretty evenly all over this earth. 

Why is she insulting the Arab Culture?  It sounds like she is trying to get attention by having an innovative position, but it is just more hatred and disrespect from an ignorant person to me.

Your clip didn't show the man's speech.

Salaamu Alaykum

All the above shocked me. I felt as if she were scolding me personally for
being a post zionist. It was spooky how much she sounded like my poor
dead mother. That clip/site seems to be edited as we speak. When I first
saw it there were two men one calling her a heretic and another who was
the host of the program. We just threw an Al Jezera guy in jail here for
"verifying the positions of missile strikes." He's probably out already because
our own press guys here are guilty of that stuff all the time and they had no
problem pointing that out over the air. Law forces everywhere are populated
by boys and girls who want to be policemen when they grow up. This is a
job for responsible adults. You'd be hard pressed to find one on any police
force. My cousin is a police psychologist and he has his hands full.

It was this Secular Arab woman saying things about Islam that if she was
Jewish I would have begged her to be silent. She made these sweeping
generalizations that you hear from little old men arguing in Yiddish.

It was so bizarre that I thought it was a joke.

Bismillah,

Well, she was attacking Arabs in general and Christian and Muslim Arabs in particular and said she was a human secularist.  Then she praised Jewish scholarship saying that they account for most of the up-dated knowledge and science in the world.  Something like that.

Daniel, I have been thinking of the pictures of Israeli girls writing
messages on bombs for a few days. These pictures have been
published in so many different places on the web. And I want to
know; is it possible at all, do you think, to actually find those girls
and show them the photos of other Lebanese little girls who are
dead. Dead in their father's/mother's arms?

I really think learning this kind of lesson early is vital. Unfortunately,
children everywhere quickly learn the hatred and violence their
parents transmit to them and their surroundings teach them.

Put 12 Israeli and Palestinian/Lebanese children together in a play
group and I bet they won't all tear at each other's eyes. Only if an
adult tells them to.

And on a seperate note: I am disheartened to learn how obnoxious
activists can be, thank you for putting up with that and taking a
stand!

PEACE

No. I would not show them graphic photos. I don't understand what or
how children were doing close to ordinance let alone writing on it. The
officer in charge will be serving at least a month in the can for this.
Any soldier who defaces army property here goes to jail or cleans toilets
for a week.
If it makes you feel any better, starting next week anyone handling
ordinance can expect to raise the chances of contracting cancer by 50 as
Bush will be providing us with depleted uranium shells.

I saw footage today of Hezbollah firing rockets from a hospital as well as
from apartment courts in upper middle class residential areas. Hezbollah
have also set up road blocks obstructing refugees from leaving areas that
were leafleted and designated for bombardment. Can someone explain
that to me? It seems we are in competition regarding how much carnage
we can purchase from each other. This is all so senseless.


Posted By: Duende
Date Posted: 03 August 2006 at 6:27am
Indeed Daniel, no matter what the ideology behind the carnage, it is
wrong. Death does not solve anything, killing only spawns more
killing. But desperation is its own master.

I agree with you up to a point, showing graphic images of death and
blood to young children is not my first choice as an educational prop
either!

But look how many children and young impressionable adults see it
IN REAL LIFE daily, in Palestine, Iraq and now Lebanon. Nobody
thought to protect them from such trauma. Why should the girls who
wrote on those bombs be prevented from seeing images of the
results? Their mother's should ask them: "Would you like to see
where your bomb fell?" Children are both impressionable and
resilient, and maleable. That's why we have to strike while the iron is
hot, so to speak, and show them the consequences of their actions

Nevertheless, you can see such images on the front page of Spanish
newspapers. My daughter was very intrigued by the pictures of the
girls writing on the bombs, it was very hard to explain to her what it
was about. She's 4. Days ago, she also saw the photo on the front
page of a father running through the streets of Gaza holding his
dead child in his arms and I lied to her, telling her he was hurt but
going to the hospital. It would perhaps have been better to really talk
about how bad people sometimes cause such terrible things and tell
her in more detail. But it is beyond her.

It is beyond me, except that I have been seeing it all my life and so it
has become something 'normal' when we should all be finding it
abnormal.

Let them be children as long as possible. I hate that I was exposed to
archive footage of the the holocaust at 6 years old. Tonight I realized yet
again that my beliefs in equality democracy and human rights define me
as an anti-zionist. A song that brings tears to my eyes when I hear it
called "The Hope" (National Anthem of Israel) has a racist line in it. I wrap
my mind tightly around all of it and do the right thing. Emotionally It all
feels wrong no matter what I do. How can so many of the people I love be
unwittingly flirting with Fascism. The ghosts of my own relatives among
the six million who perished scold me in my dreams. Really they do. The
funerals and Shiva calls have started for my past and present students or
in some cases their fathers and Nasralla the moron is trying to hit my
house with chinese missiles. It's job security. If more people thought as I
do - he'd be out of a job. It's personal. I knew it.

Hey Nasrallah you look like a Goth version of the stay puff marsh mellow

Bismillah,

Yes, isn't it so funndy that we often want to do, or are somehow compelled to do the opposite of our parents!  And we think that it's because THEY were wrong.  But when my kids say, "That was you mom.  Our lives are different," when I'm trying to give them an ever-so-important hard learned life lesson.

So I'll be bold and say I understand really your point of view.  It's yours.  Keep it.  I just will say that I believe in letting kids know what's going on in the world without making them share responsibility because they are kids.  But our bombs are making those babies die and children become crippled or orphans.  I want my kids to know, and they are old enough now anyway. 

But when they were younger, I would expose them pictorally and verbally to as much truth as I thought that they could handle with the belief that if those kids could live through it, my kids could know about it in a meaningful way that would make them think about other people's suffering enough to want to do something to stop this madness when they are older.

It hasn't worked yet though.  I'd like to take them there personally.  I think a trip to Lebanon would be much more valuable than a trip to Disney.  But that's just me.

Your kids are living through it.  Sheltering kids who have to live through it is a different matter, isn't it?  They've seen plenty, and kids like that more than anything else need a rest.

In Shah Allah, all the kids and parents will rest soon and the bombings will be stopped.

Salaamu Alaykum

So my wife is in Pittsburgh my daughter is in Utah and I'm waiting a U.S
embassy courier to bring my sons new pass port. So that I can send him
off to Washington to be with my sister. Since the attack near the hospital
in Haifa my immune system seems to have fled. My father in law's
girlfriend is a doctor and she wanted to send me to an emergency room.
where? Haifa.

I said I'll see my family doctor tomorrow. It's the weirdest thing. If I fall
asleep more than a couple hours I wake up choking. I have bruises on my
back and legs but I can't remember ever being hit. The up side is
that I've lost 10 pounds in only a week because everything I eat disagrees
with that arrangement. After I send my son. I think that I'll have half a
mind to despair.

Haifa is a good place there is no separation between
muslims jews or christians. It is our capital of tolerance. I think that this
sickness that is attacking my body right now is born of hatred. I don't
know what to do with hate I also have a 38 degree celsius fever right now
which may explain why my head is thumping.

Bismillah,

Why are you all separated? 

It is good to hate evil.  It must be hard to remain focused on what is truly evil in your situation.  Evil is anything that Allah would think is evil.

Forgive yourself for momentary lapses.  We are human.  Allah forgives us when we repent, so we should forgive ourselves.

Digestive enzymes like papaya help with stomach problems, and ginger tablets.  Try not to eat things that would normally upset your stomach because they are worse right now.

Deep breathing helps.  And remember Allah's mercy and love.

Salaamu Alaykum

I was working on three albums and Joey was taking an advanced Jujitzu
course in Haifa and we weren't counting on spending our summer in stinky
old bombshelters.

I sort of digressed from the subject here.
Regarding the little girls writing on the shells. This was not in the Israeli
press until two days ago and heads are now rolling.

We killed ten times the amount of civilians going after Hezbollah and
Hamasniks in the last month than the amount of Israeli civilians killed by
Hezbollah. There is a strange "respect" among our best warriors for the
Hezbollah. Politicians are by nature cynical opportunists. Nasrallah even
after losing his own son to us seems determined to annihilate us but
somehow respectable and sane. He is of course our enemy he has done
the most terrible damage to our moral and shaken our sense of
invulnerability but he is not as hated as the lunatic running Iran who so
far hasn't fired a shot. We could still turn this whole situation around. Us,
the Hamas, the Hezbollah all to our various benefit. There are reasons I
can't share with you (because I would be arrested rightfully for treason)
that lead me to believe that if we can just avoid round two for another
two months with out assassinating anyone or blowing ourselves up on a
bus loaded with school children or shooting school girls in Palestine...
People here might be ready to talk seriously about peace. The alternative
is to be Jew and muslim the ultimate obnoxious soon to be unmarried
couple who argue in public.

Thanks for the update with a sprinkle of hope mixed in.

Inshallah you are right Daniel. I read today that Al Fateh have
reached agreement to actually dialogue with Hamas, so maybe there
too, some sanity may prevail.

By the way, how's your health finally? Was it all stress related?

I'm up and around my wife and babies are coming back in the next few
days. YES Definitely stress related I usually thrive on challenge and even
stress. This was out of my hands. I'm a total control freak when I was
younger I could handle fear and pain and even, though despairingly,
accept my own imminent mortality on two or three occasions.

Feeling helpless to protect my family. from your nutters and my nutters at
the same time... I choked on it. There's a saying in hebrew
hoshekh bah-einayim it means literally "a darkness in the eyes" That's
where I was.

I had this image in my mind like i was blind and lost in a great dark cave
with all kinds of nasty little determined things flying around me up to no
good at all. It could have been the fever. I think all this evil and hatred
literally got under my skin for a bit. I totally lost my edge. We were and
still are under the nagging and relentless influence of evil. While our
separate religions have been hijacked from us by people who do horrible
things in our name, I believe that as individuals true to our our faiths we
are completely transparent and deeply loved by Allah. I suspect that he
has given us each a separate piece of a great spiritual puzzle and that we
are denying ourselves greatness by failing to learn from and share with
each other.

Daniel, what you said is beautiful and I agree.

Sorry I couldn't respond earlier, we snatched some time to visit
Cordoba (always worth snatching whatever you can to experience
this deeply beautiful city).

As artists, and especially musicians, we are perhaps more susceptible
to those dark caves filled with demons, than many people.

Who was it said musicians seem to lack a layer of protective skin? I'm
trying to remember if it was my much loved, and missed Yehudi
Menuhin?
