Being Mobile | Blog
"We have now crossed into the Brave New Digital World – a new paradigm of digital media fragmentation in which consumers are always connected. One out of every three minutes online is now spent on devices beyond the PC"
The above factoids are from [1].
While smartphones and tablets – mobile devices, more or less – have penetrated and permeated our homes, our workplaces, our cars, and even our bedrooms (12 percent of millennial moms (born between 1977 and 1994) admitted to using their phones during sex[2]) and our bathrooms (more than 38 million American shop online while on the toilet[3]).
STOP! STOP! Enough!! We get it!! Mobile technology is everywhere, everywhere.
Not exactly. In contrast, here are some recent numbers about K-12 cellphone banning: "24% of K-12 schools ban cell phones altogether and 62% allow phones on school grounds but ban them in the classroom.[4]" No, mobile technology is NOT everywhere, everywhere.
But wait: what's this? A recent Pew report[5] found that "73% of teachers use cellphones for classroom activities." The group of teachers surveyed was "Advance Placement and National Writing Project teachers" – artisan teachers/early-adopting teachers. No surprise that AP teachers in their high end classes let their children use their cellphones to go out to the Internet to find information. Almost 2/3 [4] of America's schools do not allow cellphones in the classroom! By the way: this is 2013.
But let's dig deeper: WHY was there this amazingly fast uptake in smartphones amongst consumers?
In other words, mobile penetration happened because a bunch of factors came together to make a smartphone easy to own, easy to use, productive to use, even fun to use (admit it… you loved Angry Birds).
In schools what factors have come together to make mobile easy to own, easy to use, productive to use, fun to use?
We're listening. Speak up, please!
That's the point!!
The above nothwithstanding, the pieces to the puzzle will come together; it is absolutely inevitable:
But, how long can – should -- a school wait?
"The future is already here – it just isn't evenly distributed." William Gibson in The Economist on December 4th, 2003
There are schools that are making it happen now; there are administrators and teachers who are putting the puzzle pieces together themselves so that their children can benefit from mobile technologies – NOW!
We (C&E) are fortunate to be working in several such schools now. And quite candidly, it's a struggle. But it's worth the struggle: student engagement and test scores are going up and teachers are saying: "Teaching is fun now!"
Tell us about how your school is putting the mobile puzzle pieces together! Let's hear from you! Tell us your mobile learning story, please!

I was given about 300 BF of walnut (Don't be too jealous – Only so far about 60 feet is usable, the rest destroyed by termites) Along with the walnut I got this board. Its pretty heavy. I'm thinking mahogany? I put some mineral spirits on one half to see the grain.

Band Saw motor dead? - 21 replies
Hey all,I was resawing some White Oak yesterday on my OLD TAIWAN (think Harbor Freight) band saw. I noticed it smelled like "An OLD VW BUG" in that there was a slight burning smell.

I know now that he he NEVER had ANY intention of paying. His scam is to get you to write the first draft, and then say he doesn't like it and walk off with the script without paying. [continued below]....
The book itself is a badly written "diary" of his supposed life that just rambles on and on about nothing and everything. The time put in to decipher this story and format it into a film version was enormous and to not be paid after that is a tragedy.
I am appalled by the way he handles business, the names he called me when I called him on this, and the fact that he is going to do this again to other unsuspecting writers is horrifying. So this is a warning to all.
Stay away from this guy. He is dishonest and will take your writing, steal it and NEVER pay you.

Dorman | 749-531
If you're a VW owner, you know parts are extremely over priced. That and the fact most auto parts stores don't carry VW parts so you need to get them directly from the dealer. I'm so glad I came across Parts Geek because they were over 75% cheaper than if I would have gotten the part from the dealer. Very cheap and vet fast delivery. Definitely would recommend this site!!

perfect fit - easy to install and working great. previously replaced with a rebuild kit not mounted on door panel from a different vendor which was a pain to install and didn't last long, should ordered this one from Parts Geek instead.

Delightfully Tacky, Yet Unrefined
And on the other side of the cultural divide, Pebbles attended this last night.
Today's plan includes a longer workout at lunch. There are no group classes going on right now, so it's treadmill city. But I think I'll take a bit longer today at lunch. I'm shooting for a two-fer today, as I know I'll come up short over the weekend. Plus there's that issue of a little too much sushi - actually not to much sushi last night, just my reaction to the sodium in soy. I notice it even more, now that I've cut my salt consumption down.
Unfortunately, I am a lazy slob that didn't prepare breakfast this morning, so I'll have another boost in salt intake by heading over to McD's for my back up breakfast. Egg McMuffin, no cheese (that stuff isn't cheese anyway) and ditch half the muffin. I'll add some apple dippers (no dip) and call it breakfast. And since I have no leftovers, I'll have to buy lunch as well. It may be vegetable soup from Potbelly's or perhaps the McD's classic chicken grilled sandwich (ditch the top bun and the mayo) and some apple slices. Either way, it will take a couple of days for the sodium (yesterday and today's) to right itself.
New plan for Sunday - watching this.
Take good care of yourself. Be kind to others. Don't worry, be tacky.

That's our DFW metroplex - something for everyone.ReplyDelete
Glad you had a good time!
My taste definitely runs towards the tacky. What was that line from anyway?ReplyDelete
The good old egg mcmuffin is my backup too but I'm not as conscientious as you about ditching anything off it.
My employer sponsors a team in a Dragon Boat Race we have here once a year. Thankfully I've managed to avoid the rowing and the water. Don't think I'd mind watching one though.
Have a great weekend.
I like your back up breakfast and you're so right about the *cheese*.ReplyDelete
Sunday will be so much fun. Can we see pics after?
Love "don't worry, be tacky" - embrace it!! That play looks like it was a lot of fun - kind of reminds me of the "Tuna" series of characters.ReplyDelete
I used to eat two egg mcmuffin meals (with hashbrowns!) on a regular basis. Man they were good, "cheese" and all, lol!
Sounds like a riot. I lurves me some tacky. It is entertaining. :DReplyDelete

If you absolutely, positively can't wait for Google to formally announce the expected Google Pack, here's the URL. Dirson's the first I know to have spotted it, and it's popping up in other places. InsideGoogle references Dirson here, but the actual page itself at Dirson is down. Yeah, I know -- if pack.google.com is just redirecting to Google Accounts, perhaps that means it's no more real than calendar.google.com redirecting to Google.com. Rumors, rumors, right? Well, over at the New York Times, we've got unnamed Google executives being cited as confirming the Google Video plans while the official Google line is to say nothing. The story later gets into Google Pack. To be clear, the New York Times isn't saying just that unnamed sources are spilling the beans -- it's specifically saying that unnamed executives within Google are doing so.
Postscript: I should add that we're under embargo about the news that will come out today. Technically, our policy is that if a company briefing us itself breaks that embargo, we consider it off, as explained more here. And technically, Google execs themselves giving out details even unnamed pretty much should have us feeling that an embargo has been broken. But we'll stick with it. However, fair to say Google Pack is definitely coming giving that Google itself now has info available about it.

Ohio National
One Financial Way, , Cincinnati, OH, 45242,
Company Profile
Company Profile
The Ohio National Life Insurance Company was founded on September 9, 1909. A little more than a year later, on October 10, 1910, the first policy was written. The past has shaped Ohio National into the company it is today, and the future looks bright.
Because Ohio National operates from a mutual company heritage, corporate management focuses efforts for the benefits of policyholders and clients, pursuing long-term strategic objectives instead of chasing quarterly returns. Rest assured, our balance sheet is extremely strong, and our guiding principles that put policyholders first are uncompromised.
To recognize this milestone, Ohio National is giving back to the Cincinnati community, our home for 100 years, with the largest ever one-time gift to Cincinnati Habitat for Humanity. This gift involves a commitment to fund the construction of 10 houses over the next five years (2009 – 2013). Each house will symbolize a decade in Ohio National's history. We are proud to continue our history of security and protection through this commitment.
As we begin our second century, Ohio National remains committed to the philosophy that people do business with people. We're committed to delivering more by building relationships and helping our sales associates serve their client needs. "Life changes. We'll be there," is more than a slogan – it's our commitment to be there when it counts – when you need us.

Fire investigators in Austin, Texas said Wednesday that they need the public's help finding whoever created an unexploded bomb discovered last week in a business district on the northwest side of the city.
The device was discovered behind the Springwood Business Complex on Pond Springs Road by a woman walking her dog on April 22, police said. "It didn't look alarming to me, it looked like trash," the woman, who asked not to be named, told Austin ABC News affiliate KVUE-TV. "I considered picking it up and putting it in the dumpster. I feel very thankful that something told me not to."
Police have been on high alert since pressure cookers were used to detonate home-made explosives at the Boston Marathon on April 15, but so far this is the only actual explosive authorities in Austin have recovered since then. The Springwood Business Complex is largely vacant, although it hosts a Kumon math and reading center for young children.
Austin Fire Department Chief Arson Investigator Aaron Woolverton told KVUE-TV that it looks like a trial run for something bigger. "It really reeks more of experimentation than someone trying to target or hurt somebody, but we don't know that for sure," he said. "For all we know it could be an experimentation designed to lead up to something that really is meant to hurt somebody."
He added that, even while lab tests are still forthcoming, the device has all the hallmarks of an improvised explosive device, including a fuse that appears to have burned out before the bomb could detonate. Anyone with information on who created the device is urged to contact arson investigators at 512-874-0240.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Colin Kaepernick threw for 199 yards and ran for 68 and a touchdown, helping the San Francisco 49ers start their longest road trip this season by beating the Tennessee Titans 31-17 Sunday. The 49ers (5-2) won their fourth straight before heading to London for a game with winless Jacksonville by jumping out to a 17-0 halftime lead. Frank Gore also ran for a pair of 1-yard TDs as San Francisco cruised. Tramaine Brock also intercepted a pass, Justin Smith had two of the 49ers' three sacks and Kassim Osgood recovered a muffed punt for a TD. The Titans (3-4) lost their third straight even with Jake Locker starting after missing two games with a sprained right hip and knee. Locker threw for 326 yards with two TD passes in a fourth-quarter spurt that came up short.(Copyright 2013 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

Bail Bond FAQs
Do you have questions about the bail bond process?
Why ExpertBail?
We understand that seeking out a bail bond is not something that anyone ever plans for or expects. That's why we are here. We have obtained the finest bail bond agents and gathered them in the only true national bail bond network. With bail bond agents in every state that bail can be written, our ExpertBail Agents can service your needs no matter where you or the defendant is located.
ExpertBail Agents are professional bail bond agents who do their job better than the rest. They are completely committed to providing quality support to those in need and won't stop until their job is done right. Read our consumer tips.
ExpertBail Consumer Bail Bond Watch: Consumers Beware of Bail Bond Agents Calling.
Have you ever received a phone call during dinner time from a person trying to sell you something? There is nothing more irritating than being interrupted by someone sitting in a call center half a world away trying to sell you something you don't really need. Now what if the person on the other end of the phone was a bail agent, and they were letting you know that a loved one was in jail. Would you be upset? Would you feel like your privacy has been violated? The answer from most people is a resounding YES! And to boot, these unsolicited phone calls are not only annoying, they are illegal. If you ever get a phone call from a bail agent you should take down their information (name, company, contact and bail license) and then report them to the department of insurance or better business bureau. Things are tough enough when a family member has been arrested. The last thing you need is to have your phone start ringing with bail agents calling you to help. So it is always safe to follow the old adage, never give any information out to anyone who calls you….only trust the people that you call. Bail agents that resort to solicitation and break the rules are almost certain to be the same bail agents that will be a little less than honest in their business dealings with you. In other words….they will rip you off.
Consumer Bail Bond Tips
Find a bail trusted bail bond agent
One of the most difficult things to do in life is to know how to find a good service provider. Whether it is a plumber or a mechanic, knowing who to trust and what to expect are never easy. Now imagine if you needed to find a trusted resource for something like a bail bond….would you know where to look? Would you know who to trust? What would you do? Since most people don't have a clue, we thought we would post some good consumer tips to follow.
• Is the person dressed professionally
• Do they have a professional website and physical office location
• Do they have experience
• How long have they been in business
• Are they selling you on price or service? Usually the "service" folks are more experienced.
• Do they have a license • Are they endorsed by a third party? (ExpertBail, Better Business Bureau, etc.)
• Are they friendly and approachable?
• Do they have any references?
At the end of the day, use your common sense. If the bail agent meets the criteria above and are responsive to your questions and needs, than they are most likely someone you can work with. Never make the mistake of going with the low cost bail agent, because you will get what you pay for. How to tell an Expert Bail Bond Agent from an Amateur Bail Bond Agent?

Another drawing from my January trip to Austin. Jo's Coffee is the perfect spot where you can sip on your latte as you observe the chaos of South Congress on a perfect morning. Located next door to the laid-back yet very chic Hotel San Jose - Jo's offers drinks, eats, live music, and movies in the parking lot.
PS: Be on the lookout for more drawings live from Austin during the SXSW Interactive Conference in 2 weeks! :)
Hey Mom! I'm on The Oatmeal!
Last summer I created a set of conceptual drawings for my friend's hotel. His plan is to redesign it as a dinosaur-themed property because of it's close proximity to Dinosaur Ridge in Colorado. I produced eighteen sketches based on his initial conceptual write-up and since then he's used my sketches for everything from talking to his local city council to sharing it with his architects. Checkout the reason why my art and the hotel is featured in The Oatmeal. It's a pretty cool story. :)
Last weekend "Drawing Table for One" hit the mean streets of Austin, Texas for some fun and drawing. It was a gorgeous weekend filled with sunshine, effervescent beverages, delicious food, and plenty of relaxation. I decided to do my first drawing at the Hotel San Jose - one of my favorite boutique hotel ever. Their central courtyard and tiny bar are open to the public, so it's the perfect spot to take a break in between South Congress adventures.
I've been meaning to draw my favorite pizzeria for a millennium and a day. Luigi's Pizzeria is where it's at… they even acquired their own pizzaiolo (pizza maker) direct from Napoli. He wanted to see America and America needed the best pizza kung-fu Italy had to offer. What's the pizza like? Don't ask me, just get over there. ;)
Epicure Cafe is located next to the much loved River Oaks Theater here in Houston, Texas. On most evenings you'll see cinephiles having dinner, or drinking coffee (pre)post-movie to discuss the latest art flicks. The cafe also bakes amazing pastries and serves a fantastic breakfast. On this specific morning, I met my friend Gina up for breakfast and had a delicious mushroom omelet, toast, fruit, and a cookie of course!

On a chilly afternoon I decided to stop by an old favorite, the Lounge at Benjy's. Located upstairs above Benjy's restaurant (Rice Village location), the lounge offers a low-key yet chic spot for pre-dinner drinks, hanging out with your BFFs, or canoodling with that special someone. ;) They have a great happy hour from 4:30-7pm, so if you ever plan to host happy hour here makes sure to send a friend to stake out a spot before it's packed with thirsty urban professionals. I spent a lovely afternoon drawing with a view of the bar while sipping on a nice Spanish cava and snacking on their mushroom/ricotta pizza.

dlited asked: Your tumblr is AWESOME. I am so glad I found you!! What creativity and beautifully etched creations you have made!
Thank you so much! I love drawing my favorite places around town. It makes me happy that others enjoy them as well! :)
texasrunner asked: May I re-post your wonderful illustration of Picnic on the Picnic Facebook page? Thanks!
Absolutely! Just make sure to add my Tumblr URL: http://drawingtableforone.tumblr.com/
Thank you! Happy you like the drawing. :)
PICNIC is the sister restaurant of Raven Grill (also featured on Drawing Table for One). This adorable little sandwich and bakery is a delicious homage to all things picnic related. Stop by and pick up the perfect box lunch to enjoy outside at your local park , or dine-in and sit at one of the long, communal picnic tables.

Hi all,
Something strange happens to me, I have created a S60 application. I am able to debug it by using CodeWarrior and the s60 WINSCW emulator, the application is launched correctly and I get step in/out in the source code.
The problem is if I launch the emulator alone (execute epoc.exe) and I go to installed folder, I can see my application icon, but nothing happens if I try to open it...?
I did the same thing with the HelloWorld Basic app and this time, it works, I can launch it from either the debugger or the stand alone WINSCW emulator.
I don't see what I did differently with my app than the HelloWorldApp?
Is there someone can help me on telling me what might be wrong?
Thanks a lot for any answer!

An instructor of the Argentine tango, James Valentino moves gracefully, his feet instinctively hitting the floor in time with the music that fills the ballroom. As the owner and founder of City Style Tango, Valentino imparts his grace to dancers of all experience levels during private and group lessons, sharing the secrets of the tango as well as other dancing styles such as swing, salsa, and the fox trot. Beyond the classes for adults or children, James encourages his pupils to show off their skills during student showcases or venture together to local clubs to dance amid the real world's oil-slicked floors.
Attendees of Maple Theater's classic film series, Secret Cinema, only know one thing when they enter the 300-seat auditorium: whether that night's feature was made before or after 1967. Otherwise, every selection is kept tightly under wraps by the series curator and the elves who run the projectors. The rest of the theater's lineup, however, is no secret. Throughout the week, Maple Theater specializes in the latest releases from the world of independent cinema, and features live music every weekend.
After the show, unwind in the theater's bar and WiFi lounge, where 12 taps offer local brews amid elegant drapes and chandelier strands. The bar pairs those pours?plus wines and cocktails?with original American tapas, as well as pretzel bread, veggie spring rolls, and waffle fries. Over at the Great Lakes coffee bar, meanwhile, vintage cameras and projectors surround visitors who stop in for their morning caffeine dose.
Eisenhower Dance Center gives bodies a jolt of electricity??that extra burst of energy that brings dance to life. Its dance classes train dancers of all ages how to perform the precise techniques of ballet, contemporary, jazz, hip hop, and tap so that they can express themselves in the most beautiful way possible. Summer camps incorporate the basics of creative movement into themed princess and pirate sessions for younger kids and decades or international themes for older kids. As students progress from beginner to advanced to professional, they can move into the touring professional dance company and perform choreographies alongside their instructors at shows around the world.
Arthur Murray has been a leading name in franchise dance since 1912, when the entrepreneur began selling mail-order dance lessons. Expanding his reach, he enlisted teachers to spread his signature dance lessons on first-class steamships and skyrocketed to fame in the '30s after introducing the public to such dances as the Lambeth Walk and The Big Apple. By the 1950s, Arthur and his wife, Kathryn, were hosting their own highly popular TV show on ABC, The Arthur Murray Dance Party, which ran for 12 years. Today, Arthur Murray's team prepares students for rug cutting at special events and weekend nightclub jaunts. Throughout lessons, instructors teach the foundations of two to four dances from a long list of styles that range from Latin to country-western, helping students to learn basic step patterns, timing, and the ability to lead or follow.
Shakespeare in the Park in Royal Oak bills itself as Michigan's only professional outdoor Shakespeare event, and for two remaining weekends this summer, the professional players will take to the open-air stage in a re-imagined version of the Bard's classic comedy The Two Gentlemen of Verona. The 1960s-styled production features a cast of actors that bring the 16th-century play to life through vibrant, sleek, Mod-motifs. The lawn-style seating of the outdoor theater allows visitors to bring blankets or lawn-chairs to enjoy the arts in casual, summer style, with free parking nearby. Water Works is offering a special August 6 performance of the production, specifically designed for the hearing-impaired, in which costumed members of TerpTheatre's shadow actors interpret the lines onstage while the action plays out.
Stay & Play Social Club reunites adults with their younger selves with recreational sports leagues offered year-round. Players leave the daily grind behind at Stay & Play's summer events, which include volleyball, flag-football, and kickball leagues. Come winter, competitors wander indoors for bowling, euchre, and dodgeball. After each match or game, participants are welcome to migrate to a local pub for drink and pub-fare specials provided by the social club or to train for the future of extreme dodgeball using full pint glasses. Stay & Play's funseekers also foster a healthy community, sponsoring local charities and participating in cancer-awareness races.

Cal-Mag-Zinc Liquid offers three essential minerals (Calcium, Magnesium and Zinc) in perfect ratios plus additional minerals vital for optimal bone health. Unlike other dosage forms that may be difficult to assimilate, our liquid delivery system offers optimal absorption and maximum benefits. Calcium is the main mineral that makes up bone. It adds strength and rigidity to bones, which is needed to support the body. It is estimated that almost 100% of women and 90-95% of men over the age of 50 in the United States fail to consume optimal levels of dietary calcium. When we don't consume enough calcium in our diet to maintain sufficient levels in the bloodstream, our bodies draw calcium they require from our bones. The result is decreased bone density and an increased risk of fragility and fractures. Magnesium is also an essential mineral for normal skeletal development. It influences mineral and matrix metabolism in bone by a combination of effects on hormones and other factors that regulate skeletal, mineral metabolism, and by direct effects on bone itself. Approximately 60% of the body's magnesium is located in bone. Several studies indicate that the standard American diet is deficient in magnesium and may contribute to bone degeneration.
Magnesium activates the enzyme alkaline phosphatase, which is necessary for calcium bone re-absorption (increase in bone density). Zinc is needed for the synthesis of some amino acids used in the formation of collagen protein, which is the base of bone, onto which calcium is deposited. A zinc deficiency will seriously impede bone building and bone strength. Finally, Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) and its active metabolite 1,25-(OH)2D3 (calcitrol) is a well established regulator of bone mineral balance. Vitamin D3 is necessary to ensure proper serum levels of calcium and phosphate. This is essential for promoting optimal bone development. Clinical trials have demonstrated that supplementing with vitamin D3 can significantly improve bone density.
Other Ingredients: Purified water, Vegetable glycerine, natural Strawberry flavor, citric acid, ultra smooth powder (cellulose gum, xanthan gum and carrageenan gum, Microcrystalline celluse, sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate (to protect freshness).
Does Not Contain: No milk, egg, peanut, tree nut, fish shelfish, soy, wheat, gluten or yeast.
Warnings: Keep out of reach of children. As with all dietary supplements, consult your healthcare professional before use. See product label for more information.

Intellectual virtues like open-mindedness, clarity, intellectual honesty and the willingness to participate in rational discussions, are conceived as important aims of education. In this paper an attempt is made to clarify the specific nature of intellectual virtues. Firstly, the intellectual virtues are systematically compared with moral virtues. The upshot is that considering a trait of character to be an intellectual virtue implies assuming that such a trait can be derived from, or is a specification of, the cardinal virtue of concern and respect for truth. Secondly, several (possible) misconceptions of intellectual virtues are avoided by making the required distinctions. For example, it is argued that our concept of an intellectual virtue should not be confused with a normative conception of intellectual virtuousness.

Our World: Hizbullah's media champions
For 10 years Israel has been paying the price for the withdrawal from Lebanon. And yet even now, the Israeli press is still presenting the event as an act of strategic genius and political courage.
Defense Minister Ehud Barak.

Yediot Aharonot
chose to devote its weekend news supplement to a retrospective on the event. It included a fawning five-page interview with Defense Minister Ehud Barak, who ordered the withdrawal during his tenure as prime minister and defense minister. It also included a two-page spread featuring interviews with the IDF commanders who carried out the withdrawal, recalling their adrenalin rushes as they retreated their forces across the border.
Nearly hidden between the two puff pieces was a little article titled "We told you so."
It featured an interview with retired former Meretz leader Yossi Sarid who opposed the withdrawal. He told
that in hindsight, he's glad the withdrawal went through, even though it led directly to the wars that followed. Following Sarid's self-congratulatory modesty,
gave former defense minister Moshe Arens and National Infrastructures Minister Uzi Landau a sound bite apiece to lash out at the withdrawal. That base covered, the paper dismissed them both as "right-wingers."
's treatment of the Lebanon withdrawal was not surprising. The unilateral withdrawal from Lebanon – which was a failure on every rational level – was a strategy concocted and championed for the better part of a decade by
and its media colleagues at Israel Radio. The paper's decision to publish a 10-year anniversary retrospective two weeks early was undoubtedly an attempt to preempt and prevent any further discussion of the withdrawal.
praised it as a work of operational genius because no one was wounded, kidnapped or killed during the 48-hour retreat. Of course, by presenting force protection as the IDF's highest goal, the paper ignored basic strategic realities.
The fact is that the withdrawal was an operational fiasco. In its rush to the border, the IDF left behind huge quantities of sensitive equipment that Hizbullah commandeered. Israel abandoned thousands of loyal allies from the South Lebanon Army and their families to the tender mercies of Hizbullah. These were men who had fought shoulder to shoulder with the IDF since 1982. Those who managed to escape to Israel before the gates were locked were treated as unwanted deadweight by Barak and his media flacks, who couldn't be bothered with the treachery at the heart of the operation.
The withdrawal was a military defeat. It weakened Israel and strengthened Hizbullah. Without the security zone, Israel had no buffer between its civilian population and Hizbullah. For its part, Hizbullah set itself up in the IDF's abandoned fortifications and imposed its full control over south Lebanon.
Israel's strategic incoherence and incompetence after the withdrawal was showcased just four months later. When Hizbullah forces penetrated Mount Dov and kidnapped soldiers Benny Avraham, Omar Sawayid and Adi Avitan, Barak had no idea what to do. So he did nothing.
The soldiers were killed and Israel released hundreds of terrorists from its prisons to secure the return of their bodies four years later. Interestingly, the names Avraham, Sawayid and Avitan didn't make it into
's 10-year anniversary retrospective.
The withdrawal was a regional failure. Immediately after the withdrawal, Palestinian Authority chairman Yasser Arafat ordered Fatah chief Marwan Barghouti to form the Aksa Brigades terror cells comprised of Fatah members and to form the Popular Resistance Committee terror network that combined Fatah, Hamas and Islamic Jihad terror cells.
Four months later, after rejecting Barak's offer of Palestinian statehood at Camp David, Arafat ordered his forces to launch the Palestinian jihad.
The withdrawal from Lebanon showed Arafat that Hizbullah commander Hassan Nasrallah was right to liken Israel to a spider web that would collapse at the slightest provocation. Lebanon taught Arafat that there was no reason to negotiate a peace deal. If pressed, Israel would lose the will to fight and surrender.
The withdrawal was a political failure. To justify his decision to surrender south Lebanon to Iran's Lebanese proxy force, Barak and his media flacks repeatedly presented the false claim that Hizbullah only fought Israel because it was in Lebanon. If the IDF were to pick up its marbles and go home, Hizbullah would naturally disband.
This historically false, intuitively nutty assertion gave credence to the false Arab-leftist narrative which argues that Israel's size, rather than the Arab world's refusal to accept a Jewish state in the Levant, is the cause of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
AS HIZBULLAH'S subsequent buildup, continued aggression and eventual de facto takeover of the Lebanese government all showed, Hizbullah was not an Israeli creation. It was formed by Teheran to serve the needs of the ayatollahs. Its continued existence, strength and aggression are dictated not by Israeli actions but by Iranian interests. So too, the wider Arab conflict with Israel predated the 1967 Six Day War and it won't end if Israel shrinks into the indefensible 1949 armistice lines. It won't end until either Israel is destroyed or the Arabs decide that they are finally willing to accept a Jewish state in their midst.
The withdrawal from Lebanon set the conditions for the 2006 Second Lebanon War. It provided Hizbullah with the political cachet in Lebanon and regionally to rearm. And it gave Shi'ite, non-Arab Iran unprecedented popularity among the Sunni Arab masses. Even more devastatingly, the withdrawal – which set the course for the 2005 withdrawal from Gaza and the Olmert government's plan to unilaterally withdraw from Judea and Samaria – discredited the one strategy that could have brought Israel a strategic victory in 2006: reassertion of its control over the border area in south Lebanon.
For 10 years Israel has been paying the price for the withdrawal from Lebanon. And yet even now, with Hizbullah fielding guided missiles capable of hitting Dimona and in control of the Lebanese government and military, which itself receives advanced weapons from the US, the media, led by
are still presenting the withdrawal as an act of strategic genius and political courage.
CONSIDER THE following representative extract from the paper's interview with Barak.
Q: "The most significant argument [against the withdrawal] is that the withdrawal is what built up Hizbullah. That we are responsible for its increased strength."
A: "That is... completely incorrect. When we left, Hizbullah already had 7,000 rockets, which is nearly twice what it fired during the Second Lebanon War. [In 2000] it already had rockets with sufficient range to hit the power station in Hadera. Hizbullah didn't exist when we went in [in 1982]. It was formed because we were there. Hizbullah's buildup is not a consequence of our withdrawal from Lebanon, it is the consequence of our stay in Lebanon...
"Hizbullah's biggest buildup happened six years after the withdrawal, after the Second Lebanon War. Paradoxically, that war, that hurt them badly and created a type of deterrence, after it ended Hizbullah's buildup escalated in a major way. It had 14,000 rockets in the Second Lebanon War. It fired some of them. And now it has 45,000 that cover the entire country.
"I suggest that we set aside the comforting story we tell ourselves that we supposedly built them up. We didn't build them up and there's no reason in the world to think, from everything I know about reality, that if we were in Lebanon now they would have fewer rockets."
So we built them up, but we have to set aside the comforting fable that we built them up. They were formed because we were in Lebanon and the fact that we're not in Lebanon has no impact on their buildup.
And how did
respond to Barak's pearls of strategic wisdom?
Q: "You never stop talking about leadership and making courageous decisions. But you're not a commentator. You are defense minister and one of the most important people in the Israeli government. Ten years after the withdrawal and four years after the Second Lebanon War, we again hear talk about an inevitable new round of war in the summer. Until when [will we have to fight]?"
This exchange, which is in no way unique, makes two things clear. First, Barak would rather say foolish things than acknowledge the harsh truth of his strategic misstep. Second, led by
, the media prefer to portray Barak's buffoonery as courageous statecraft rather than acknowledge the massive cost of his failure.
THE QUESTION is why are they acting this way? From Barak's perspective, the answer is clear. Telling the truth would force him to acknowledge that his tenure as prime minister was a disaster for the country. Moreover, if he were ever courageous enough to acknowledge his failure, rather than listen to what he had to say, the media would shove him into the right-wing ghetto with Arens and Landau. He would lose his status as a brilliant strategist and be castigated as an ideologue.
The media's commitment to prolonging the fiction that the withdrawal was a stroke of brilliance and blocking all debate on the issue stems from the fact that the withdrawal from Lebanon was a media initiative. The media introduced the foolish notion that Hizbullah only existed because Israel was in south Lebanon.
, Israel Radio and other major news organs championed the cause of a pullout from Lebanon for a decade. They portrayed EU-financed straw organizations calling for the withdrawal like Four Mothers as mass movements. They demonized IDF commanders for opposing their withdrawal plan. They stifled all voices in the North opposing the move. They castigated all politicians opposing the view as right-wing warmongers or conversely, in the case of Sarid, as hopeless doves. And they catapulted Barak to power in 1999 after he promised them that if elected he would withdraw the IDF from Lebanon within a year of taking office.
Since the withdrawal, the media has ignored its military consequences. They pretended Hizbullah's abduction of Sawayid, Avitan and Avraham, its cross border attack in Shlomi in 2002 and its military buildup were unrelated to the withdrawal. So too, of course, was Hizbullah's electoral and extra-electoral takeover of the Lebanese government and its decision to initiate the Second Lebanon War.
They ignored its regional consequences. They preferred to give credence to Arafat's claim that the Palestinian terror was a popular response to Ariel Sharon's visit to the Temple Mount in September 2000 over considering the connection between Hizbullah/Iran/Syria and the Palestinians.
They ignored the political consequences of the withdrawal. They opted to support the Arab-leftist narrative that if Israel contracts to the 1949 armistice lines, the Palestinians will make peace. And they continued to advance this lie even after the post-2005 withdrawal Hamas takeover of Gaza.
When people wonder why Israel continues to blunder from defeat to retreat and can't figure out a way to assert its interests militarily or politically, they need to look no further than
's 10-year anniversary celebration of the withdrawal from Lebanon. As long as the media continue to portray their ideological fantasies as journalism, no politician will dare to embrace strategic rationality.
