To Mr. Obama and The Ameican people

I was one of millions who followed the inauguration of Mr. Obama as president of the USA. I cried out of joy for many reasons. I felt then that America has transcended so many injustices in her history and struggles before it would at last elect a black American, not only born outside but from Islamic origin. But most important was the message that Obama carried to the world: at last politics don't have to be devoid of ethics and values of justice and fairness and balanced vision of the American national interest visa-vis the world. This message prompted people from the Arab world, specially the young generation, to believe again that : YES WE CAN! Yes we can have "a new beginning" as Obama declared in his speech in the University of Cairo, Egypt.
BUT AND IT IS A BIG BUT! Can Mr.Obama really fulfill his promises? Can he fulfill the DREAM? The dream for which Martin Luther King lost his life . King's dream was for his people in the first place, but indirectly touched oppressed people in the world. Mr. Obama's responsibly now in this moment of history is really to continue the struggle to fulfill world wide the humane values inherent in the DREAM . Can he?? Would he?? His intentions might be great but would the American political machinery allow him to fulfill his vision?? would the American political machinery realize that ruling the world by force and might and exploitation is short lived. For human nature would be always resisting no matter what this resistance is labeled. Mr. Obama could set the tone, could be a fresh thought in the American mental-set and conscious. The basic language in the American vision of its relation to the world has to be re-evaluated. The American people need to be re-educated into world' affairs and the "exploitative" role of the American foreign policy in this affairs. The American people need to rise above fear and blackmailing if they spoke the truth. And in fact they have done that on many occasions. but to give the future generation the chance to create a humane world to live in still needs creative efforts from creative people.

out of silence

Tow years have passed since my last posting. Who cares!
I do. for a writer to loose his/her power to express self,mind, and soul in written words means loosing the will to live. Or perhaps loosing the drive that keeps him on going forward. when a writer stops writing it is like hibernating. well, sometimes it is necessary for a new beginning and a fresh start. After all, isn't that what life is all about....?
