The Ghouse Diary: Dawud Walid of CAIR Michigan blundered.

Dawud Walid of CAIR Michigan blundered.

What's wrong with CAIR Michigan's Dawud Walid?

I have known Dawud Walid and I am completely taken back by his biased statement about the Nairobi incident. I am writing this note to remind ourselves and guard ourselves from making reckless statements.

Walid Tweets, "Israeli Army seems to be @#westgate to secure Israeli property. Kenyans just want this to end but Israeli gov doesn't really care about them"

Israel has every right to protect her people and her assets. Look at us critically, how many times have we condemned the Jihadists from Saudi Arabia, United States, Pakistan, Sudan, Egypt and elsewhere, who go to other nations not to save life, but destroy life in direct violation of Quran - Killing one person is like killing the whole humanity.

As Muslims we need to be clean before we ask others to be.

Walid reflects the sentiments of the tiny minority of Muslims who are biased against Jews and blame Jews for everything. The good news is the silent majority does not like these attitudes; these attitudes go against the spirit Quran - to blame anyone without questioning our own motives.

I hope Dawud and those few Muslims ask themselves, how many Muslims really worry about other people's lives? How many times have we genuinely condemned the atrocities by others against other people? Aren't we too selfish? Do we care about others?

It's time we correct ourselves, every step of the way. It is also time to reflect on our own attitudes.

The Foundation for Pluralism champions the idea of co-existence by respecting and accepting the otherness of those different from ourselves. The World Muslim Congress is committed to nurturing the pluralistic ideals embedded in Islam. Heavily involved in both, Mike Ghouse is committed to building cohesive societies and has produced outstanding public events to bring Americans together of different religions, ethnicities and races on common grounds of building a safe and secure America.

oncerned by the divisiveness, he saw the need to bring Americans together and founded America Together Foundation committed to building a cohesive America, indeed it is in response to ACT America which is bent on pitching one American against the other. We will be holding series of educational programs, conferences and workshops to address the issues that divide us such as Civil Right, GLBT, Quraan, Abortion, anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, Racial Profiling and Stereotyping.

The Annual Unity Day USA is in its 7th year now, it is a purposeful event to bring Americans together, on this Unity Day, we the people of the United States of America of every faith, race, ethnicity, culture and background will gather to express our commitment to co-existence, unity, prosperity and wellbeing of our nation.

Thanksgiving Celebration is in its 15th year showcasing cultural diversity.

The 5th Annual Reflections on Holocaust and Genocides is to learn and to acknowledge and reflect upon the terrible things we have inflicted upon each other and commit to avert such tragedies. Through this event non-Jewish people have consciously learned about Holocaust for the first time, it was also for the first time that people of 14 faiths came together to join in to commemorate the Holocaust that commemorated within the Jewish Community for years. They are not alone anymore in their anguish, we are all in it together with them, and it is a Muslim initiative to effect a positive change.

The programs, seminars and workshops conducted by the Foundation for Pluralism have become a part of the America Together Foundation. While the Foundation for Pluralism continues championing the idea of co-existence through respecting and accepting the otherness of other, the commitment to nurturing the pluralistic ideals embedded in Islam through the World Muslim Congress continues.

Mike is a speaker, thinker, collaborator and a writer on the subjects of Pluralism, the Interfaith Movement, Cohesive Societies, Islam, India, Hope and World Peace. Over 1000 of his articles have been published worldwide and two books are poised to be released this summer. His work is reflected in 4 websites and 27 Blogs indexed at http://www.mikeghouse.net
