A Comment: Iran

As I close my eyes and drift away to a land where there is love, health, peace, and blessings. I wanted to take the time to think and reflect.

    This week President Trump announced that the U.S. has decided to withdraw from the Iran deal. Without going into any complicated details about this deal, I thought about the idea of maintaining relationships alongside the forging of new ones. It is nice that North Korea wants to build peace, and is reaching out to the U.S. for the purposes of global peace. This is an example of building a new relationship. If we make a few connections here and there, we can say that the announcement of ending the Iran deal sent an implicit message to the world, saying that: "we have new friends now, and we don't need old friends." Weather it was intended or not, this was not the type of message that world leaders should be delivering. It is important to create and build new relationships with nations, but it is also important to maintain existing ones. rather than ending the Iran deal, it would have been better to re-negotiate, or think about what could have been improved. 

Ending this agreement also creates divisions between the Muslim sects of Sunni and Shia, and the Islamic world. In a time of divisions or sectarian violences, there was a great need to create a sense of unity between the Islamic world. Nations look to the U.S. for global leadership. Negotiation could have sent a more positive message to the nation of Iran, to nations trying to convince the U.S. to keep the Iran deal, and to the world. President Hassan Rouhani  said that "Iran keeps its commitments." The Trump Presidency must also demonstrate this if it is to be taken seriously as a Presidency of Trust.

We contine to pray for sectarian unity, for the purposes of global peace. God Bless You and God Bless America. My thoughts to share with love & kindness! :)
