There are so many wise and educated people in almost all societies. There are many open-minded people in all corners of the world. There are many tolerant and peace-loving people all over the planet. This is an asset and this asset must be used to promote good in a world that is increasingly drifting to tension and rivalries. The world is indeed in need of intelligent, open-minded and respectful people in the West to open a dialogue--a true dialogue with people in the rest of the world, especially the Muslim world to make sure that the coming century is one that sees the resolution of existing problems. Equally open-minded leaders (not existing political leaders but rather intellectuals) in the Muslim world are needed for this dialogue to be useful. The Muslim world and the West are neighbors, geographically, religiously and intellectually. To further cement those facts of history and geography, millions of Muslims live in the West as permanent communities. On the other end, a

حصلت أخيرا على فرصة لأستخدام كمبيوتري\حاسوبي بعد أن كنت أتابع الأحداث عن طريق الهاتف وهو ما يجعل من . الصعب التعليق عليها سيكون تعليقا منقسما إلى شقين وسيكون الأول كالتالي في البداية وعلى سبيل تقرير المبادئ، فإنني أشعر بحزن عميق لأن ١٢ أسرة فقدت أفرادا منها وللأسف لم تكن الخسارة مقتصرة على ألـ ١٢ أسرة ففي الوقت الذي جرى فيه الهجوم على الصحيفة الفرنسية، حصل هجوم في اليمن قتل فيه ما ينيف على الخمسين من الجنسين هذا طبعا  دون ذكر حصيلة الغارات الجوية في سورية، و العراق، و اليمن وأفغانستان، حيث يتبارى المدافعون عن القيم العالمية--على حد تعبير أوباما--في قنبلة هذه البلدان الإسلامية ضف إلى هذا صور التراجيديا التي نشاهد فصولها و المتمثلة في مأساة اللاجئين السوريين الذين يموتون تجمدا وجوعا تحت الثلج في خيم لا تتوفر على أبسط مقومات الحياة هذه اتراجيديها كتبها الإهمال إن لم يكن التواطئ العالمي طيلة السنوات الأربعة من القتل و السحل الذي قام به بشار ضد شعبه، ثم بعد ذلك التعاون العلني الفج بين الغرب و السفاح بشار من أجل هزيمة الدولة الإسلامية التي يراها الطرف

I finally had a chance to have access to my computer. Following the world from a cell phone is a one-way process, since typing from a cell is tedious. I will comment here on yesterday's event in Paris because I do comment on events sometime. This will be in two separate notes. here is the first. First of all, and as a matter of principle, I feel deeply sad that 12 families lost their loved ones. Unfortunately, it is not just 12 families.
