Peace like a river...
by John Oliver Smith
25-Nov-2007
 

This morning began as they usually do, Aman leaping out of bed yelling because he might be late, Amir rolling over, smiling and saying "Thank you Mr. Smith.  Good morning” Just like my boys not too many years ago, two boys so different in how they take on the day.

I am a Catholic, the boys are Muslim. I am an Irish-American they are Iranian-American. I like Cheerios for breakfast, they like bagels, lavash bread and oh yes, Waffle Crisp.

Like every weekday morning; their mother leaves for work at 5:30am so I get the morning duty to get them dressed and on the bus for school. We will all madly try to pull ourselves together, make our beds and grab some breakfast before we head out the door.  Some mornings however, we have a few more minutes to go down by the Severn River to look for the eagle that frequents our neighborhood and enjoy the view.  It is a peaceful place, this walk by the river.  The boys will run down by the docks, or climb the jungle gym, while I walk along the shore taking it all in.

Before I fell in love with their mother, I fell in love with the peace of this water and this place.  Standing on the shore, I sense the brevity of our time and the enormity of the tides.  Ebbing and flowing, they have been carving out shorelines for so long I cannot comprehend their beginning nor their end.  Yet I continue to stand and to try.

When I met their mother we were both so bruised from past marriages.  Fights over property, children, money, friends - the war waged left us both ravaged.  She was Muslim, I was a Catholic. But we found in each other a best friend, someone who would share our quest for peace.  If peace was at all possible we would find it.  For that was our quest. But underlying that quest was our mutual faith in God.   It’s been more than four years now, and the peace we found that night when we first walked by the river when she leaned her head on my shoulder, snuggled under my arm is still with us.

The Quran is kept in our living room, beside the Bible. We found that peace cannot be had by ignoring the problems of the world and hiding. God has made us all to be in the world taking care of each other and sharing our gifts. For it is in giving that we receive, it is in our largest sacrifice that we have the most to gain. And to me the greatest sacrifice is not in the heroic battle, it is being there for my family. Every day, like the tide, being dependable, respectable, and living my life with as much grace and dignity as can be mustered. I learned that back in Ohio from my parents. I see it in the woman I share my life with and I hear it in the sounds of the river.

Very soon the peace brokers are coming to meet in Annapolis. Men and women of different nationalities and faiths will sit down together by the water searching for peace in a conflict that seems to have no end. Their arguments have been in the making for more than a thousand years. Tonight I will go home to live in a peaceful sanctuary built by two people of different faiths that both cling to their one commonality - God, the One who makes all things possible. Who is full of compassion and mercy....and forgiveness. He holds no grudges to those who are truly regretful. He has no fight with the meek and humble. He knows better than us that we are all His children and He has given us all the gifts we need to take care of each other. At our house we live in peace as we realize that, however distant, we are both cousins, descendants of the children of Abraham.

But in Annapolis there will be arguments for sure, arguments over land, buildings, families, and past wrongs. And yet as I stand by the Severn River overlooking Annapolis, seeing our children play and watching the tide begin to flow, all things seem possible.

And the woman I love? Her first name is Iran.

For thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river...
Isaiah 66:12

Sakhtgeeree-yo ta'assob khaamee ast....

John, Thanks for sharing your story. It was uplifting and full of hope.
...
Then I read many of the insults (to you, to your wife, to other people, etc.) posted in response and the reality started to set in.
...
I don't attribute the attitude portrayed in the remarks to a particular religion. It should be attributed to fundamentalism. Fundamentalist Muslims, and non-Muslims (including Christians, Jews, Atheists, etc.)
...
These guys, want to define your beliefs and hate you based on their definition. If someone says he/she is Muslim (or Christian or...) and believes in peace or other virtues, these folks first deny her/his right to believe in the virtue and then hate him/her because of lack of virtue.
...
So the peace you speak of is both a reality and a dream. A reality for you and a dream for them. Apparently you are not as sophisticated or smart as they are to know such peace is impossible.
...
Cheers.

P.S. As a sometimes-agnostic-sometimes-atheist, I am also often denied having any virtues. So I can relate.

IranIrooni- You sound confused

by Marg Bar IRI (not verified) on

Mr. "indirect" IRI supporter, you seem very confused sir. You are the one who called me a "F...ing dooush bag" and that you were going to break my bones or something to that effect. Your post including my appropriate reply was erased I guess because of our bitarbiyati. The Republican party is not moving in any direction (or at least its not going to your Pat Buchanan direction) Buchanan is on the fringe. Neither the democrats or the republicans will change the Iraq policy after Bush. Yes I did vote for Gore but I could admit a mistake (unlike you) and I voted for Bush the last time. I still think I made the right choice by voting for Bush- even though he screwed up Iraq- although invading Iraq was the right thing to do. I don't think he got good advice. Whoever told him that we could bring democracy to Arabs/iraq or to get rid of the Iraqi army was an idiot (it was most probably the Neocon gang or the CIA- who knows). The best the Arabs (or even Iran)can do is to copy the turkish model. Additionally, This IrooniBystander person is basically saying the same thing I am saying and the best you can come up with is that AIPAC cries Holocust? You think that is why they get what they get? I am sorry but that really sounds stupid and naive. Its an argument a Hezbolahi makes. You sound a little (only a little don't get excited)- more intelligent than a Hezbolahi. Now I'm a shyster for telling you basically the same thing the BystanderIrooi is telling you. Come on dude- argue a little more manteghi. You know that AIPAC gets what it gets because its organized and spends the money. Politics here is money. All these groups influences are exagerrated. Decisions like invading Iraq is not made just by the neocones or AIPAC- you have the state department, the CIA, Congresss the Joint chiefs of staff......

AnonymousIROONIbystander ... and your point is????

by IranIrooni (not verified) on

Why would you consider Iran as an enemy to the US? Yes, the IRI is a piece of shit, and it violates basic human rights, steals money from the people, etc. But why would it be an enemy to the US? The hostage crisis was just a front to other dealings with the US. And besides that, nothing else has ever happened. Why would Iran be an enemy to the US? The only reason is that Iran spits on the israeli govt (in some ways, rightfully so) and the israeli govt cries foul to the US. Actually nowadays, israeli govt tells the US to shut up Iran. But again, no action from the Iranians has directly impacted the US or most of its allies in Europe and around the world. the one link is that measely little govt of shyster israel and how successfully it has BOUGHT the US govt. And I love when they say "well that's how the govt works, any other group like AIPAC can try to get support from the govt". Yes and no. AIPAC has an advantage and that is that its consistent cry of foul regarding the Holocaust (which was one of the worst things ever done to any group of people in history) shuts everyone up. AND it uses it to justify this and that, and to demand (not beg!) more 'favors.' I wanna know that given AIPAC and the other thousand and one shyster political groups that already have so much power, continue to cry foul and cry about their history???? All of this shit is connected and intertwined.

Margbari boy, writing in yiddish won't help

by IranIrooni (not verified) on

And what is going on with the " I will kick your ass" shit? Are you still in middle school or high school? That schnase of yours will get in your way. I'm sure others have just grabbed that big and ugly schnase of yours and thrown you 50 yards just like a good ol football. And please get this through your fish-eyed shyster looking face - I am not a supporter of the IRI. Go and jerk off to something or someone else. The TRUE Republicans are popping back up everywhere. You voted for Al Gore? There you go, perfectly showing what I've been saying - you and your AIPAC shyster kind were at the hip with the Democrats, till the dumb Bush jr got elected (and I admit that I voted for him). Saw your opportunity and started getting connected at the hip with the Christian right groups, fooling them that you shysters want the same with israel as they do. Then you got the Republican party. But looks like the Republicans have woken up.
And what is up with all of this "jealousy" and "hasoody" statements???? Don't get too happy boy, nobody is jealous of you or your kind. In fact we laugh at you just like how you laugh at yourselves (and you make some $ from it too ... so, good job!). Go back in your hole.

IranIrooni

by AnonymousIROONIbystander (not verified) on

From reading IranIrooni's comments, it is obvious that he has no clue how the American government works. The Neocons tried to push their Iraq views during the first gulf war but Papa Bush did not agree with their analysis and rejected them 100%. After 9/11 things became a little different and baby Bush agreed with their analysis. The world has changes since 9/11. All
Islamists are perceived as the enemy (correctly so). All Arab/Islamic regimes that could have a chance to produce weapons of mass destruction and are Anti Western are perceived as the enemy (correctly so). The Islamic Republic is correctly designated as an enemy. This is regardless of the Neocons & AIPAC's agenda- These group just give additional backing to this agenda. Iraq would have been invaded with our without AIPAC & Neocons. The IRI will be stopped regardless of the Neocone/AIPAC agenda. Yes, AIPAC has a lot of influence. But so does the NRA. This is how America works. Raise money and support the agenda you agree with (its called freedom of speech). The Pharmecutical companies do it. The insurance companies do it. AIPAC does it. Its perfectly legal. These papers and reports on AIPAC's great power are blown out of proportion and are a way towards putting pressure on AIPAC because of its support for the Likud, who are against peace with the Arabs, in Israel. Also, Everyone knows the Buchanan is a paid consultant of the Arabs. That is also legal but the Americans have decided not to listen to Mr. Buchanan. I must agree that IranIrooni=IRI.

Hey IranIRI,

You need some medication to treat your Paranioa. You also need some therapy for your Hasoody. I was not PMS and did not make the posting as PMS. I guess others have noticed your chertopert as well. I am not a neocone or a Koskhol Buchanan Republican like you. I actually voted for the guy who invented the Internet (Al Gore) :) in 2007- by the waythe internet think was a joke in case you did not get it because of you paranoia issue. I don't live in LA either. Good try. You are a Republican supporter of the IRI. Interesting, I did not know your type existed. Its as a result of Hasoody. Dont worry, therapy can help. Buchanan is a paid lobbyist of the Saudis. You just rant about bunch of stupid neocon characters. I don't think you understand what I'm saying. It is apparent that you don't understand how this country works either. Its the Paranoia

Marg Bar IRI ... your response shows just how out of it you are

by IranIrooni (not verified) on

No one accepted your shyster like argument on the $3billion that myself and the rest of AMERICANS get jipped for. Also, your argument the entire time was "you don't understand ... you don't understand." Didn't want to waste my time on a fool that argues this way. What happened to your 'lefty' name calling? Now, you got something for Bucchanan? Just because he's against your AIPAC telling our govt what to do? Oh yes, now Bucchanan is a Saudi lobbyist, just like George Bush Sr., right? Given the fact the you are a frickin neocon, I, along with my fellow REPUBLICANS, want you and your kind out of the party. Sooner or later (unfotunately looks like its taking some time) you'll be spit on and told to go back to your Democrats (which by the way have also successfully planted some anti-neocon seeds) and try it again there. Take your neocon ass out of the party. No need for a Kristol (incl the youngie 'Billie' or William), or a Podhoretz, or a Wolfowitz, or a Perle, or a Feith, or a Lieberman, or a Libby, or a Cheney, or Abrams, or Rove, or the youngie Johnny Podhoretz (supposedly a 'reporter' on the great NY Post), or a Hillary Clinton, or a Giuliani. All of these phony people and their real agendas will be revealed as the Americans will finally stand up, by showing stronger than expected support for other candidates that can't get bought or controlled by the good ol neocon Klan (take the "K" as you will, you can even think about it 3 times, I do expect you to use your imagination). Also, posting a stupid message by a so-called "Suffering from PMS" won't do it pal. I know its you. "You are all the same." Remember that because I'm sure you've been told that many times before.
No way to get around the problem that your boys, mostly with Russian heritage have created in the middle east, instead of just willing to talk and negotiate peace. There's always a give & take, and well, we know what you guys are known for. Lastly, I'd say Margbar THIS, you little shyster annoying fuckin SOB. Go back to your dad's toyota dealership on santa monica blvd. or wherever in los angeles you probably are. Oh yeah, how'd that nose job come out???? Can it now be referred to as a NOSE, instead of a SCHNASE? Go home boy.

by Marg Bar IRI (not verified) on

Hey Yoapss, Your boy Buchanan is on Fox now talking his nonsense. I see that you finally got the 3 billion thing since now you stopped saying that you don't understand. We are making a little progress I guess. Now you are going out of your way with the Jew thing. Please see your arguments below. They are a carbon copy of the Anatrinejad's arguments these days. For a Republican you are a big yoapps to hold these views. Buchanan is a paid agent of the Saudis. Don't you know that as a republican? Just like AIPAC, the Arabs have their own attempt at lobbying. The best they could find is Buchannan. I can not do anything about your politics IroonIRI. You are a real yoapss.

I think the Annapolis conference...

by Midwesty on

will open some doors. Despite the media that like to picture a harsh future for Iran and recent Khameniei's remark on conference I strongly feel that Iran by sending Syria and calming down Hamas has practically endorsed the conference. The rest is the show that politicians have put on to make radicals from the two far ends busy spaculating while they plan for a peaceful M.E. while stay away from public havoc.

Margbari boy, looks like someone finally calmed you down!

by IranIrooni (not verified) on

Forget about the jew thing (which by the way is an idea that you yourself, your insecure self I should say, have come up with). I must say that I have not criticized the Jewish people with my postings. I don't stand for my taxes going to israel ... and Egypt. How's that, boy? Now are you convinced that I'm not targeting your sorry insecure ass? The difference though is that Egypt will do what the US tells it to do (at most times), and the US will do what AIPAC tells it to do, and that is a FACT. then moving on to your neocon crap. I, a registered TRUE Republican, remember when your people loved that label, NEOCON, as supposedly, they had made excellent foreign policy and economic decisions. Beginning in mid 2004, when the failure of the Iraq war began to loom and the REAL Republicans (such as Buchanan) rose and said I TOLD YOU SO, suddenly the neocon label was redefined to mean an anti-semitic term. Its amazing ain't it? As you accuse everyone else of being a lefty, you fail to recognize that your neocon 'crew' had been on the left, of course at the time the war-loving left, for a long time ... and that includes AIPAC. Then when they saw us, the Republicans, looking like we'd nominate this brainless Bush as President, they moved in. And boy, did they make the right move. They suddenly molded their intervening, insecure, fascist, non-independence, crap to mean 'conservative' beliefs. And boy, did we fall for it! And boy, did the evangelical side, the far right (on the religious side) fall for it! So as a TRUE Republican, I say, no matter what shyster started this whole neocon movement (Irving Kristol), I think its a piece of shit and it has destroyed my Republican party. Its sad that the only candidate that sticks to the Republican roots is Ron Paul. And that's the guy that considers a couple of Jewish economists as his heros (so dont even think about spitting out the anti-semitic spiel). So again, I haven't said anything bad about the Jewish people or the religion, because the people are good and so is the religion. i don't like the israeli govt that takes advantage of being Jewish in a way that devalues the whole thing. Its all based on insecurity, its all about 'never ever forget the Holocaust' even when the argument may be about which candidate (the Jewish one or the non Jewish one) we should hire to work for us. And that's that.
Now, little boy, you go back to your dark room and try doing other crap online, because you're just too emotionally UNSTABLE to do this crap. Don't get mad and do something crazy!

Iranian Skepticism

by Parsagarda on

John,

 

Thank you for your eloquent piece. Your good intentions and the positive force of your beliefs come through clearly. Obviously you aspire for high ideals, wanting to be a good role model for your loved ones and those around you who may benefit by learning tolerance and a respect for diversity.

 

Living with an Iranian, you should not be surprised at multiplicity of opinions and take-the-gloves-off approach to the discourse on Iranian.com. Judging by the commentary, you must now appreciate the Iranian cynicism of everything religious. You can develop a greater appreciation if you could imagine a day that the pope would conquer America, replace congress with the assembly of archbishops, declare your marriage unholy, jail your children for laughter in public and sell your neighbors 9-year old daughter to the highest bidder in the name of Allah.  Iran has been subject to the Arab regime for 1400 years and the scars run deep among us; all the way into our DNA.

 

So as I read your beautiful words, I skip over the references to the holy books and the such and can see the goodness coming through. We are all children of this earth and can/should make an effort to live in peace and harmony. To that I can say Amen!

But this is how I see it. Yes the info about his wife was below but I view these things as marketing/networking. I am simply not that impressed by her background. I went and looked at her website. And then you have this IranIrooni character bringing up nonsense that has nothing to do with this article. These guys IranIrooni, Q, Goldust just insert "Israel", "AIPAC", "NEOCON" "zionist" in every blog here. Please go look at Q's blogs. Its garbage and nonsense. They never complain about IRI's expansionist policies. They just blame the jews for everything. AIPAC
NEOCONS, Zionists, is all code for "jew". These guys are bunch of crazy far far lefties who hate America. It only emboldens jews to support AIPAC and the Neocon views. Think about it.

John's article has about 200 sentences from which one single statement which was not even in the main body of the article included his wife's name. What on earth you are mad about? He is talking about peace. He could easily promote his wife's book instead. In that case there wouldn't be any thing wrong with that picture either? Man, I have a hard time to understand your thought process. I think there is plenty to talk about his subject, the Annapolis Peace Conference that you wouldn't need to mention his wife's name.

The more you talk the more you reveal your identity. Mr. Faramarz Fateh or MasoudA, as usual you are way off. Go do you homeworks first. You fail to add up ordinary numbers but not too hesitant to analyze a country's economy. First get a job man then get a life. Your online matching profile hasn't been replied to yet? I think your problem is lack of companionship also. However with this attitude I wonder no one wants to match up with you. Plus, have you wondered that you psychologically follow a cycle of being calm then coming back wild. I hate to add another thing to your list, but it is wise to seek a professional help. See what happens when you don't stick to the subject. Then people make you the subject.

Q, IranIrooni(IranIRI), Gloddust (Khaktosar) Are the same

by MargBar Iran (not verified) on

Listen IranIRI,

If you don't get the 3 billion thing I am sorry that you are Khar and a little khol perhaps. As mentioned below, Egypt gets 2 billion as well(but you don't care about that- its only when the jews manage to get soemthing that you start complaining). Its a little Hasoody I guess. As I remember, Carter, as part of the Israeli/Egyptian peace agreement promissed this aid package to insure Israels military superiority over its Arab neighbors because it was giving back the Sinai (a peace of land 4 times larger than Israel itself). You don't get the fact that the US is subsidizing its weapons manufacturers by giving the aid to the Israelis and telling the Israelis that they have to purchase weapons from the Americans? You are that Koskhol? Since I'm not jewish, I could care less but you have the same arguments as Ahmadinejad (even though you deny to support him). You are probably a crazy lefty hasood that has joined in the stupid arguments about Israel. You guys attack Israel because its an easy way to attack America. Instead of worrying about the 3 billion that Israel gets what about the 60 billion that the IRI gets in annual oil revenues for the past 30 years Mr. hasood? What have they managed to do with this? As you say "for what???? NOTHING. ZILCH, ZIP, NADA, NULL."

I may be a boy sir but you are not a man (namard!)

Marg Bar IRI ... again, don't get scared, its ok little boy.

by IranIrooni (not verified) on

I still don't get the $3billion argument? I guess that's what 'they' all say when they're wrong. I don't understand. I do not have that special cpapbility of thinking like they do, etc, etc, etc. Very good arguments marg bari boy.
I am not a supporter of the IRI, so I'd recommend you take that good 'ol argument off the table. I am not a mulla and I am not an extremist muslim. Just wanted to make sure I cover these so I don't hear or read the same jibberish from your kind.
Maybe you are right, and I don't understand why israel was created. LOGICALLY speaking (as many israeli govt officials claim to be when backing up their policies), israel should have been somewhere in Europe. Or, even more logically, all of this money that we are spending on our troops abroad, would have been considered more wisely spent if we were making sure the Jewish people in Europe did not continue to get harassed or killed. And, before you start getting happy and jerking off ... NO, even though this israel argument is similar, I am not a supporter of the wacko ahmadinejad. I am against the policies of the israeli govt. And I explained that pretty well.

Now, why all of this israeli stuff? Well, again, logically speaking, that's what all the extremist muslims, ortho jews, etc use to gather support for their 'me-only' belief. I think if SIGNIFICANT steps were taken to at least bring back some confidence that this issue may, just may be resolved, then the mullas would have less to whine about. So, basically killin 2 birds with one stone ... help the Palestinians at least get back most of their land (don't go crazy boy, I just mean the post '67 war land), which they deserve, and at the same time shut up the crazy mullas in Iran.
Last thing ... it is hillarious (or disturbing) that while and your crew (yes, you do have a few fellas doing this Internet stuff during these near-Iran-war times) just literally spit on one of the three largest religions in the world, if I say one thing about israel, I am the anti-semite crazy guy. I'm sure you have heard this before. Maybe the argument is a valid one. I love this 'new' anti-semitism crap being thrown around these days. Good luck marg bari boy.
