Patricia Friedrich Phd ASU west her works on book –PEACE LANGUAGE, why … the need.. This program is supported by Mr Sinan Muradoglu of Honeywell FAA-DER and Mrs. N N Muradoglu İntroduction……. Nevval Sevindi The reason that I come to USA is, the reality of USA which is left as an only power in the world is not ONLY making war. Because in this country Mevlana sold 5 million Mesnevi, too many Rumi organizations is ongoing and Rumi is loved. And Republic of Turkey is not an old allied which is only an Asian country that is neighbor to undeveloped mid-east countries and left you alone in Iraq war. Turkey is a place where1000 years old Turkish culture lives in it and the inheritor of Ottoman Empire which stayed 700 years. Turkish land has 13.000 years old cities and has 7-8 different civilization’s signs, it is a culture which synthesis all of them and apply. 10.000 years old Çatalhöyük is the oldest allocation unit of mother goddess Kybele. It is at Çumra which is very close to Konya, it means it is close to Rumi as well. Turkish culture and Oguz clans were always been monogamous. According to the researches done with Americans (Alan Duben & Cem Behar), it shows that even in 18th century Turks are monogamous. The percentage of polygamous is less than today. Why I have told all of these? Because we all have tons of very inaccurate information about the “other” whom we never know. We call this prejudice. This is like seeing each other behind the closed doors. This is like talking without seeing each other. Open your doors to put these prejudices of yours in front of the doors. Right now. It doesn’t matter which nationality you are from, first open your doors. Than look at me. Than start to listen. Mesnevi begins with the word “Hear”. But TVs and communication tools talk non stop. Never listens. We are human. We have to listen. I come to USA for to talk and to listen. I come to say that the tradesman organization “Ahilik” which is established by Rumi and his coeval Ahi Evran, will open new horizons to us in today’s world. Ahilik, is not only a tradesman organization, it is a philosophy and culture organization model which stands 700 years. This philosophy based on love, morality and to watch out the “other”. In modern world egoism is running in front. Egoism is become the god of individual. There is no individual world we all connect to each other. To be aware of this or not is not going to change the result. If we will be aware we can change the result. American or Turkish, together hand in hand, we can restructure peace again. It has to be realized inside the person first. A person has to love himself first to give peace of mind to others. I hope my conferences for to know each other, to understand each other and to be cooperating, which is established by the hard work of Nihal Muradoglu and her husband, will develop in the future, and will continue. This will gain power to affect all wars including mid-east. So terrorism and Islam will be separated and we break free from terrorism. I will work for this

İntroduction……. Nevval Sevindi The reason that I come to USA is, the reality of USA which is left as an only power in the world is not ONLY making war. Because in this country Mevlana sold 5 million Mesnevi, too many Rumi organizations is ongoing and Rumi is loved. And Republic of Turkey is not an old allied which is only an Asian country that is neighbor to undeveloped mid-east countries and left you alone in Iraq war.

It is at Çumra which is very close to Konya, it means it is close to Rumi as well. letter: Dear Canguzel and Zubeir and Mazahr, Thank you very much for a wonderful evening on Turkey and its cultural heritage. Both My wife and I were very impressed and moved. The speakers were excellent. Both of them have very impressive personalities, and they did an excellent job in presenting the Moslem tradition of love and compassion. Listening to them made Rachel and I better people. We wish we could have spent more time with those wonderful ladies. Their coming to give talks in America is very important. Their talks help counter wrong impressions and stereotypes. It is a pleasure to listen to them. Rachel and I also loved the music performance at the end of the evening. And of course, Turkish hospitality is beyond competition. So again, many many thanks. We hope to see you again soon Kobi and Rachel Turkish culture and Oguz clans were always been monogamous. According to the researches done with Americans (Alan Duben & Cem Behar), it shows that even in 18th century Turks are monogamous. The percentage of polygamous is less than today. Why I have told all of these? Because we all have tons of very inaccurate information about the “other” whom we never know. We call this prejudice. This is like seeing each other behind the closed doors. This is like talking without seeing each other. Open your doors to put these prejudices of yours in front of the doors. Right now.

This will gain power to affect all wars including mid-east. So terrorism and Islam will be separated and we break free from terrorism. I will work for this Reflections on Guest Speakers 9/13/06 Caroline Griswold I thought Ms. Sargut and Ms. Sevindi’s lectures were fascinating. I was especially moved by Ms. Sargut’s obvious passion for her religion. I think that in this day and age, we are so often regaled with negative images of Islamic extremists and persecuted Islamic women that it is very easy to forget that the vast majority of Muslims are not extremists, and that it is possible for a woman to be an extremely passionate and committed Muslim, like Ms. Sargut, and also be a very successful scientist, in her case. I though that was very inspiring and pushed us to remember that making any generalizations about the followers world’s second largest religion is not only useless but degrades the vast diversity of experiences and feelings that exist within it. For me, one of the most fascinating things she talked about was the concept of the “true human,” or the insan. I thought this concept (which actually reminded me a lot of Plato’s concept of the ideal form) was a very powerful way to inspire all humans to try to bring out their inner insan. I thought it was interesting that there is a concept of the true human being worthwhile in Islam, because it seems that in many religions, one of the key premises is that humans are fundamentally flawed. In Islam (or at least Sufism) it seems that there is more confidence placed in the potential of the human, and the responsibility, then, is for each human to go on their internal journey to bring out that true human. I was struck by the implication, then, that anything that a Muslim does that is against the words and ideals of Allah is, indeed, false. In general, I really enjoyed the lectures. I loved that both of the women were able to speak candidly with humor, patience, and obvious passion about their faith. It really helped to bring Islam more to life for me.

Let a Civilian Team Go to Lebanon, not a Military Force Today we’re going to learn the result of the JDP group meeting. The group decision was not made for the meeting. For this reason, there were some who expressed their views and defended them to the media beforehand.

In summary, Arinc and the Prime Minister say: “Turkey should take a more active role in the region. It shouldn’t miss the opportunity to be the leader. Our historical responsibilities demand this. If 22 countries from the EU are participating, countries from the ICO should participate, as well.” When Ozal said these things in 1990, this was a vision and leadership capability. However, I don’t know how much it means to have a vision saying this after an unsuccessful Iraq memorandum. What does Tayyip Erdogan say? “You’re complaining that people are dying, but you don’t want to send troops; what kind of consistency is this?” We turn our heads to Abdullah Gul and we hear him cursing PKK terror, “They are vile and treacherous; we’ve had enough!“ Our corner grocer does the same thing. That is, the people are complaining just as the Prime Minister said, because the power is not in their hands. Power is in the hands of the representatives. Then what right do those in power have to complain? The person in power is the will that uses power. Where is Turkey’s will? As a nation, who are we going to hold accountable? Our grocer? Tayyip Erdogan also said, “A permanent peace has not been established in the Middle East.” Won’t they ask, “Why haven’t you established your own peace?” To those who say, “Are these the same thing?” I’ll immediately answer “yes.” They are the same thing, because they both require vision and strategy. Otherwise, the result of not having a policy is that those in power only cry like victims. They do this with pattern sentences. Their ability to be believed in is lost. Germany is going to send naval forces, but it can’t make a decision. The latest excuse it found is: Let the Lebanese parliament write us a request and we’ll accept it! In other words, the UN isn’t important; maybe we shouldn’t go! However, there’s another piece of important information in the European press: “Hezbollah militias are reconstructing Lebanon and solidifying their control.” Israel is publishing the same news saying, “militias have taken on the role of saviors of the people.” Tayyip Erdogan says, “We’re not going to disarm the Hezbollah or to fight.” Whereas, these things are implicit in the UN resolution. After sending troops, it’s not possible to immediately withdraw them. While there is an Israel around who killed UN soldiers saying they were hitting Hezbollah members and who says the war won’t end, what cease-fire are we going for? In addition, you’re sending “armed” troops, but you say they’re not going to fight. They are not policemen… On top of all this, there’s no hand-to-hand combat there. A bomb will be thrown at a truck; a missile will hit where they are; soldiers will die. Plus, there’s no active political role as there was in the Northern Iraq operation. This is not a situation with a position for demonstrating leadership or a point for sharing power and influence. OK, what should Turkey do? Turkey should send a civilian team to the region, because everything has been leveled. It’s the people in Lebanon who need help. Organizing the Red Cross and NGO’s, humane aid should be given. Volunteer health teams under the name of Peace Angels can heal the wounds. Hezbollah finds financing for building and construction work. It’s very important to find financing and deploy help to the construction sector in the region, because the historical mission of neutral Turkey in the region will still be helping the Lebanese people. On the subject of establishing security, there are organizations including special security teams from the Police Force. They are adequate to secure safety for the civilian population. Turkey should go to Lebanon as a civilian peace force. This vision would aid a permanent peace, too. Since it’s known that the opposing sides behind the war are the US and Iran, Turkey could assume the role of mediator, as well, because it appears that Iran, who has rejected all international offers, is determined to continue its fight with the world. The EU’s ratification of the Turkey report is before us. For the first time, it recommends cooperation with Turkey on the PKK issue and it states that promises made to the Cyprus Republic should be kept. Even the US is assigned as PKK coordinator. What are we waiting for? September 05, 2006 Hi Nevval, I just read your article ” Let a Civilian Team Go to Lebanon, not a Military Force ” . First of all let me introduce to you myself. My name is Moiz Rafi, I live in Islamabad Pakistan, working in a PR/Media consultancy firm. About situation in Lebanon, I feel that the fire has not put off completely, only the flames have disappeared for time being. We all know what was behind the whole episode of destruction, the motives, rationale and strategy. I agree with your idea to send civilians instead of army to Lebanon. Government of Pakistan has announced to send the engineers corps from army to Lebanon for reconstruction work. Sending forces or people wont solve the purpose, Muslim world should think together and try to find a solution about stopping the next phase of this onslought and destruction. The fire will spread to Syria, Turkey and last stop at Iran of this destruction train. We have already seen the first glimpse of what is going to happen next, several bomb blasts in turkey recently, bomb blast in Syria, well these are all eye openers for us. Regards Moiz

MEB’dan şikayeti olan bir veli anlatıyor:

Sayın Nevval SEVİNDİ; (Milli eğitim Bakanlığı ve ilgili bürokratlara gönderdiğim maili ilginizi esirgemiyeceğinizi düşünerek anne olarak size de gönderiyorum .Teşekkürler.) Oğlum Ali YÜKSEL 2004-2005 yılında OKS sınavına girdi. Ailece maddi ve manevi her türlü sıkıntıya girerek çocuğumuzu destekledik. Sınav sonucunda Oğlum YUNUS EMRE ANADOLU LİSESİ (İZMİR) ‘ni kazandı. Sınav kazanması bizde büyük bir sevinç yarattı. Ancak bu sevincin bu yıl kabusa döneceği hiç bir zaman aklımıza gelmemişti. Bir yıl hazırlık okuyup 3 yılda lise öğrenimini görecekti. Bu arada Bakanlığın uygulaması ile Lise eğitimi 4 yıla çıktı ve bizim arkamızdan aynı müfredata göre eğitim verecek sınıf kalmadı . Oğlum hazırlık sınıfını geçti ancak Lise 1. sınıfta kaldı. Okul Müdürlüğün çağrısı üzerine gittiğim de sınıfta kalan bu çocuklara uygulamanın Milli Eğitim Bakanlığının B.08.0.06M.0.09.01.01.532 sayı 07/09/2006 tarihli 7 maddeden oluşan genelgesine göre bir seçim yapmamız istenmiştir. Söz konusu genelgeyi okuduğum zaman her şeyin belirsizlik içinde olduğunu gördüm ve bizlerden bu belirsizlik içinden 3 seçenekli bir seçim yapmamız gerektiği bildirilmiştir. Genelgeye göre ; 1-) Eski sisteme göre (3 yıllık eğitimde) devam etmesini tercih edersek (Bu seçeneği 12.09.2006 tarihi itibarile kabul etmiş bulunuyorum) İzmirde hangi semtteki, hangi okulda okuyacağını bilmeksizin tamamen sınıfta kalan öğrencilerden oluşan (4 yıllık eğitime geçilmesininden sonra alttan yeni sınıflar oluşmadığından) bir nevi tecrit sınıfında okuyacağını kabul ederek bir eğitim yılına başlamış olacağız. Ayrıca bir yıl sonrada alan seçimlerini yaptığımız düşünüldüğünde daha farklı bir semtte ve farklı bir okul olacağıda büyük bir ihtimaldir. Çok az sayıda öğrenci ( İzmir ili sınırı içinde hazırlık okuyan Anadolu Liseleri içinde Almanca okuyup benzer durumda sınıfta kalan öğrenci sayısı toplamı 10 kişidir.) için 3 senelik yeni ve özel bir eğitim dönemi öngörülmektedir. Ancak ders kitapları nasıl düzenlenecek ve nasıl temin edilecek belirsizdir. Bu olumsuzluklara ilaveten eğitimde destek veren dershanelere gidip sorduğumuzda derslerin farklı olması nedeni ile şu anki sınıflara kabul etmelerinin mümkün olmadığını ve ayrıca bir sınıf açmalarının ne bu yıl ne de bir sonraki yıl söz konusu olamayacağını bildirmişlerdir. Sonuçta ise Üniversite sınavına girecekleri yılda da ilk defa 4 Yıllık Liseler mezun verip Üniversite sınav sistemi bunun üzerine kurulacağı düşünüldüğünde benim oğlum ve benzer durumdaki az sayıdaki çocuklarımızın üniversiteye girme şansını neredeyse yok edip onları şimdiden böyle bir geleceğe mahkum edilmesi eğitimde eşitlik prensibine aykırıdır. 2-) Seçeneklerden 2. si olan 4 Yılık lise Eğitimini tercih etseydik Oğlumun 2 Yılı boşa geçmiş olacak kendinden yaşça küçük çocuklarla okuyup 20 YAŞINDA Liseden den mezun olacak, çocukta bırakacağı olumsuz etkileri bir yana veli olarak bizlerin maddi ve manevi yıpranmamız çok ağır olacaktı. 3-) Seçeneklerden açık lisede okuması (okula gitmeden dışardan sınavlara girerek) ise bizim için seçenek bile değildi. Şüphesiz Milli Eğitim Bakanlığımızın beklide farklı bir açıdan görerek çıkardığı bu genelge ile yaşandığında sonuçları bakımından çocuklarımızın ve ailelerin çok ağır bir bedel ödemelerini getirmektedir. Bu kadar ağır bedeli hak etmediğimizi düşünüyoruz. ERGENLİK DÖNEMİNDEKİ çocuklarımızın yaptıkları hatalar “sınıfta kalmak bir hata olmamakla birlikte’ sistemde değişiklik yapılırken tam geçiş dönemine denk gelen 1 yıla neden olabilecek sınıfta kalmanın cezası 2 yıla çıkmakta sonuçları itibarı ile ise tüm hayatlarına ve geleceklerine mal edilmektedir. Böyle bir olumsuzluk ve belirsizlik taşıyan genelgenin uygulanması durumunda tek suçları Milli Eğitim Bakanlığının Eğitimde sistem değişikliği yaptığı bir döneme denk gelen bir yılda okumalarından kaynaklanan kayıp bir gençlik oluşacağı bir gerçektir. Oysaki Mili Eğitim Bakanlığının en önemli görevlerinden biri tek bir kişi bile olsa bu gençleri kazanmak olmalıdır. Hazırlık sınıfı okuyan öğrencilere uygulanan yönetmelik gereği 10. ve 11. sınıflar da uygulandığı şekilde 9. sınıflarda da sınıfta kalma durumunun sorumlu olarak dersten geçme şeklinde uygulanması hem çocuklarımız hem veliler hem de sağlıklı bir yeni nesil acısından en faydalı çözüm olacaktır. Okulların açılmasına kısa bir süre kalmış iken mağduriyetimizin acilen giderilmesi hususunu arz ederim. Fatma YÜKSEL

Arizona’da 9/11

2003’te yüzlerce erkek Müslüman göçmen, resmî ofislerde parmak izi, fotoğraf verme peşinde koşuyordu. Saatlerce süren görüşmelerden yorgun düşüyorlardı. 130.000 erkek göçmen bu dönemde sorgu odalarından geçti.
