THE ROLE OF GOVERNMENT IN DEFINING COMMON GOOD


In a representative democracy like ours, Barney Frank’s words reflect our sentiments, “Government is simply the name we give to the things we choose to do together.” Indeed, unlike the monarchies, dictatorships and communists where the rulers decide what is good for the subjects, our system of government does the opposite of it. We the people decide what is good for us in the form of legislating it through our elected representatives. 



The coerciveness of the government occurs when we the people are not collectively represented in the pursuit of our happiness. And it is our failure, rather than the failure of our government, to ignore the checks and balances built into our system.

PEACE ON HORIZON FOR ISRAEL AND PALESTINE  

I believe at the heart of the world peace is the Israel Palestine conflict, indeed, it is the mother of all conflicts, and if we can find a solution to this, peace is on the horizon ready to shine on us.

Who am I to worry about Israelis and Palestinians? What inspires me to be involved in the Israel Palestine conflict? The following is the story of my struggle to see a cohesive world, the story will take you through different emotions but at the end, I hope you feel a sense of completeness of the story. Please let me know. Thank you.


Until we can see our own faults, peace for both people becomes a forlorn hope. The burden to find solutions falls on all of us, but particularly Jews, Muslims and Christians.


PROPHET MUHAMMAD (PBUH) THE PEACEMAKER

Are you a Rahmat (Kindness/Mercy) to your family, your spouse, your friends, your neighbors, your nation and your world? Do you believe Prophet Muhammad was a mercy to mankind?  If he was, can the world see a reflection of him in you?


VALENTINE’S DAY – THE  UNIVERSAL PHENOMENON

As a futurist, I project the trends in social change and I predict that within a decade, the Valentine’s Day will morph into an all inclusive affection day.   Love has no bounds; it is between two people in love, husband and wife, mother and son, father daughter, brother sister, brothers, sisters, friends, uncles, aunties, Grand Pa and Grand Ma and any one you care about.



MIKE GHOUSE SPEAKS ON AMERICA – SATURDAY FEB 18 AT 6:00 PM

Mike will illuminate our individual and collective responsibility to keep law and order and faithfully guard the safety of every citizen. He will conclude that we need to enhance our efforts nationally, one brick at a time, to build a more cohesive America, where every American is safe at home, on the job, at places of worship, and in public places.


STANDING UP FOR CHRISTIANS

Eventually, I hope to collect whatever little service Muslims have done for people other than themselves.  I am sure you and friends have done a lot. Insha Allah, we will gather it all in one place and keep it as a record and inspiration to encourage Muslims to do things for others and vice-versa.  To begin with, I will be sharing the small things I have done in the name of Islam and Muslims for others.  Thanks God for his guidance in helping me serve everyone from Atheists to Zoroastrians and every one in between including the Native American tradition. I need a short write up of everything you have done for others, other than Muslims to place it all on the upcoming Portal – American Muslim Observer.  I am looking for donors to help this going forward.

OBAMA CONTRACEPTIVE GOOF UP – GHOUSE ON HANNITY SHOW

Where did he get the idea that contraceptives will be provided free of charge to consumer, is there anything free out there? God is not going to shower the contraceptives on the health insurance companies, if they were to provide, they have to pay for it, and it will be passed on to the employer.
