I believe in the Church of Baseball. I tried all the major religions and most of the minor ones. I've worshipped Buddha, Allah, Brahma, Vishnu, Siva, trees, mushrooms and Isadora Duncan. I know things. For instance, there are 108 beads in a Catholic rosary and there are 108 stitches in a baseball. When I learned that, I gave Jesus a chanceRon Shelton

There is no chance, no destiny, no fate, that can circumvent or hinder or control the firm resolve of a determined soul.Ella Wheeler Wilcox
Something will have gone out of us as a people if we ever let the remaining wilderness be destroyed; if we permit the last virgin forests to be turned into comic books and plastic cigarette cases; if we drive the few remaining members of the wild species into zoos or to extinction; if we pollute the last clean air and dirty the last clean streams and push our paved roads through the last of the silence, so that never again will Americans be free from noise, the exhausts, the stinks of human and automotive waste. And so that never again can we have the chance to see ourselves single, separate, vertical and individual in the world, part of the environment of trees and rocks and soil, brother to the other animals, part of the natural world and competent to belong in it. We simply need that wild country available to us, even if we never do more than drive to its edge and look in. For it can be a means of reassuring ourselves of our sanity as creatures, a part of the geography of hope.Wallace Stegner
At bottom every man knows well enough that he is a unique being, only once on this earth; and by no extraordinary chance will such a marvellously picturesque piece of diversity in unity as he is, ever be put together a second time.Friedrich Nietzsche

PUCK EVERLASTING Dennis Quaid reignited his career with The Rookie, and now Kurt Russell has his own feel-good Disney sports movie. He's in Vancouver to shoot Miracle, in which he plays Herb Brooks, coach of the 1980 U.S. Olympic hockey team, whose Cold War-era underdog win against the Soviets became the story of the decade. For homework, Russell met with the real-life Brooks. ''He's a very inventive, creative hockey mind in a very disciplined, tough Midwestern body,'' Russell says. ''Ultimately he reeks of that thing that is indefinable -- he's a winner.'' Directed by Gavin O'Connor (Tumbleweeds), the movie also stars 2003 Sundance prizewinner Patricia Clarkson as Russell's wife. ''You know working every day with Kurt Russell is going to be a good thing,'' she says. ''I'll make the sacrifice.''
SLEUTH ACHE While working on the police drama Dark Blue (opening Feb. 21) -- also starring Russell -- director Ron Shelton chatted regularly with his technical adviser, retired L.A. detective Robert Souza. ''By the end, I [thought], There's a movie to be made about the sometimes comically absurd lives of these career Hollywood homicide detectives.'' Thus Hollywood Homicide, Shelton's police action-comedy, starring Josh Hartnett -- and, in a return to his lighter side, Harrison Ford. ''In a certain way, it's the twinkle of the guy of Indiana Jones,'' Shelton says. ''It's about a veteran detective, and Harrison is a veteran movie star. I gave him an opportunity to let some of the flaws and wrinkles show.''
FURTHERMORE Michael Cunningham, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Hours, has just adapted his first novel, A Home at the End of the World, which theater director Michael Mayer (Thoroughly Modern Millie) will start shooting in May with Colin Farrell.

DSF43 TOPICS: The 3 C's; Detachment; Step 3 (Made a decision turn our will & our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him)
TOPICS: The 3 C's; Detachment; Step 3 (Made a decision turn our will & our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him) from tue 5-18-2010
I did feel it was my personal mission to help others, do whatever for them to make them better people, so that they would be indebted to me
but like (anonymous) just said – you get funky too, it gets on you, takes you down
putting others as my – motivation in a way
allows me to continue to alienate me and allows me to lose myself
that old behavior is poison and death to me
it brought me to the brink of the end
I had to face what was going on inside of me
which was, that when I self-sacrifice, I expect attention or love or validation back for it.
my mom told me once when I was a teenager -that our relationship was symbiotic
that her love was conditional on my behavior.
I was 17 or 16 then and I was so angry and disturbed by her comment at the time
but that was the reality at that moment. Our relationship was hung on what we did for each other. I thought
that is totally sick/unhealthy.
I have found if I want something, I need to be willing to do it for me, first
just like love, forgiveness, understanding, compassion.
I stopped trying to get that from other people
and gave it to me.
Self-forgiveness was singly the most profound, enriching and humbling experience I have ever been through in this life.
You can have peace and you can – feel empowered and happy right now. It all comes from within and what you are willing to believe.
The 3 C's remind me that not only do I need to MYOB (mind my own business)
but that I can make changes for me, that will allow me to feel better today/right now.
It is a "guide" to stay on program and on track
knowing that I am all I can do – regarding work or control and I did not cause the disease but I do have a part in it.
I did get detachment, after I set and followed thru on my boundaries
I did not get sucked into focusing on how it was affecting them.
I never went "there" early on
I had to put on my blinders and stay focused extra hard on what I was doing.
Owning my own feelings, reactions, subsequent responses and choices and when I was able to wait
allowing others the dignity that I was receiving inside
space, privacy
and personal reasons
I quit demanding answers of others.
I quit being overly involved in their life, their choices and their consequences.
It is funny how the program works, the moment
you think you get/understand something – then that lesson gets tested almost immediately. HP is responsive to us.
As you work it and hang true to it
you see layers come off or get deeper in some ways. Delusion is lifted and you see deeper truths in multiple realites.
I have more freedom, love, awareness, understanding than I ever have had before.
The way I work step three, well I am sort of doing it – constantly- at all times I have to keep turning me over to HP throughout my day(s).
I think once you work through all of the program's steps, you can do all the steps at once or in any given day.
Step three, is all about me surrendering to god/hp/the universe.
My ideas, thoughts, feelings, the outcomes I am striving for
if I stay in this moment and keep a connection open with my HP
I don't have to get ahead of anything.
I can stay in this moment right now and I can stay open to the unlimited possibilities god offers me
on a daily basis if I keep the connection, humbly.
I feel more free, when I am surrendering then at any other moment in time.
I like reminding myself, to focus on me, that I am powerless over others and then I am back onto me right now and
not even five minutes from now because that is the future.
It is ok that I don't have a plan for every minute of my day.
I used to think I was not able to set goals or accomplish anything
and it stemmed from junk/issues from my ADD/ADHD.
As I empower myself and follow my own boundary's consequences
it is what allows me to experience my own self-respect, self-love.
I see that I can accomplish things and succeed.
You are worth so much more than you realize right now – even if you don't love yourself yet.
The program works and you do have choices.
As I followed my boundaries I was allowed to feel better in the end.
Even though others maybe didn't like it and wanted to fight me on what I was doing
I held tight to the fact that I am an adult, allowed to have my own personal and private reasons
that I do not need to explain to anyone. In fact I owe something to me, not to them and
the act of explaining (and/or JADEing: justifying, arguing, defending, explaining) brings me back down into the disease and slipping.
I can't fix it for them or change them – so I detach from that control.
I am loving me and doing what is right/healthier for me.
It is my life and that's the end period. Learning that was life altering!
I have had so many miracles in program and it does work.
Detachment is a blessing that is worth working to achieve. Feeling my own emotional body and self
feeling autonomous, like a whole individual person is what life is like for me now.
I am forever grateful – all I have to do is practise this to keep it.
Practicing it in real-time is the only secret to how program works.
My serenity is equivalent to my ability to accept life as it comes.
The 3 C's are: I did not cause it, I cannot control it and I cannot cure it. I can only change and control me.

Santa Barbara Mountain Biking TrailsPlease take a moment to review the guidelines for proper trail etiquette!
Click the trail names below for detailed information on each one.
*Please note that difficulty ratings are relative to each other. What is considered a "moderate" trail back home could be very different from a "moderate" trail in Santa Barbara.
Camuesa Connector TrailVery fun back-country loop located off of paradise road near Upper Oso Camp Ground. The singletrack portion is mostly downhill with a few short and steep climbs mixed in. Camuesa is a great short ride if you are looking for a change of scenery from the front country trails.
San YsidroComing Soon!
Cold SpringsCold Springs Trail is a fun but very technical and rocky descent in Santa Barbara's front country. No large drops or death defying chutes to worry about here, just consistent and large rock gardens throughout the majority of the trail. Most of the trail isn't very steep but there are some difficult switchbacks and steeper sections near the end. Most people shuttle this ride, but many of us prefer to include it in a bigger loop that involves climbing Romero Canyon Trail's fire road and coming down Cold Springs Trail.
Tunnel TrailTunnel Trail is the real deal.......easily Santa Barbara's most difficult downhill ride. If you love steep, rocky, and technical descents then you'll love this one! A larger travel full suspension bike and a full face helmet are recommended equipment for this one!
Knapp's Castle (Snyder Trail)Knapp's Castle (Snyder Trail) is a very popular local shuttle ride. Starting on fire road at the top, Knapp's Castle turns into fast and fun single track for the rest of the way down. If you are looking for a short, fast, and fun shuttle ride then you will love this trail!
Romero Canyon TrailA shop favorite........moderate to steep 4 mile fire road climb leading to a fun descent down the canyon trail. The trail descent transitions from fast and smooth to moderately technical rock gardens as you get lower. If you are looking for a longer ride you can ride the fire road all the way to the top of the mountain for some spectacular views.
Jesusita TrailThe local XC/Trail Favorite. 1200 ft of climbing rewards you with one of the best views in town as well as a very fast and fun descent. Throw that little chainring back on your bike and bring a trail bell, this one is worth it!
Tucker's GroveComing Soon!
TequepisTequepis Trail is a hidden gem! The climb to the top is not for the weak but the decent is so very worth it! There are no major technical hurdles to worry about, just point your front end down and hang on for one fun ride!
EllwoodEllwood Mesa is a fantastic network of trails and open spaces adjacent to UCSB. There are no steep hills or overly technical features so the area is fantastic for mellow mountain bike rides or getting that cyclocross bike dirty! Between Ellwood Mesa and the adjacent Santa Barbara Shores County Park, you'll find plenty of trails to keep you busy for a couple of hours....and the views along the bluff are fantastic!
Elings ParkScenic single-track just minutes from downtown Santa Barbara! Elings Park is great for everyone from children and beginners looking to master basic handling skills to veteran riders who have a limited time to ride and want to enjoy the fantastic view. The park has miles of mellow interconnecting single-track trails that reward you with an amazing view of Santa Barbara at the top!
Santa Cruz TrailSanta Cruz Trail is one of Santa Barbara's best long cross country loops. 17 miles and 3,,500 ft of elevation gain will get your heart pumping! The stellar views from the top of Little Pine Mountain alone make the ride worth it.

Since the 9/11 attacks, no book has provided a satisfactory answer as to WHY the attacks occurred and who was ultimately responsible for carrying them out - until now.
But destruction of its people is not?
In this article some may have been saved, lets hope they can copy them as soon as possible.
It was the Christians who destroyed the library of Alexandria. Now we have the Jews at archaeological digs all over the middle east, making certain that nothing which might conflict with their presentation of history sees the light of day... and Islamic extremists destroying that which offends them. It hardly seems the type of behavior that their early founders would have condoned.
"One of the most interesting and harmful delusions to which men and nations can be subjected, is that of imagining themselves special instruments of the Divine Will."

Aerojet Selected To Complete Throttling Divert And Attitude Control System Development For The SM-3 Block IIA Missile
SACRAMENTO, Calif., Nov. 21, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Aerojet, a GenCorp (NYSE: GY) company, announced today that it has been competitively selected by Raytheon Missile Systems to complete the development of the Throttling Divert and Attitude Control System (TDACS) for the Standard Missile-3 (SM-3) Block IIA program, an advanced version of the SM-3 now in development.
The development contract will extend through 2016 and will be followed by a planned production program. The SM-3 Block IIA program is the third phase of the president's Phased Adaptive Approach.
"This is an important win for Aerojet," said Vice President of Missile Defense and Strategic Systems, Michael Bright. "It is the culmination of more than 18 years of company-sponsored research and development and government program work at Aerojet. We look forward to working with Raytheon on completing the development of this very important missile defense capability for use in the defense of the United States and Japan."
SM-3 is being developed as part of the U.S. Missile Defense Agency's (MDA) sea-based Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense System. Block 1A interceptors are deployed on U.S. Aegis cruisers and destroyers and Japanese destroyers to defend against short- to intermediate-range ballistic missile threats in the ascent and mid-course phases of flight.Under contract to MDA and the Japanese Ministry of Defense, Raytheon and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries are developing the next-generation SM-3 Block IIA missile. The new missile will encompass larger second- and third-stage rocket motors and a larger kinetic warhead to provide a greater area of defense against more sophisticated threats. Aerojet is a world-recognized aerospace and defense leader principally serving the missile and space propulsion, defense and armaments markets. GenCorp is a leading technology-based manufacturer of aerospace and defense products and systems with a real estate segment that includes activities related to the entitlement, sale, and leasing of the company's excess real estate assets.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Windows 7 slow migration
I came across and article with the useful suggestion to type the command %appdata% in the Command Line to get a directory of all your application data and suggest you do this periodically as well.
'Belarc Advisor' http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html is another GREAT utility that I discovered while preparing for this move is that lists all the hardware and software on your system. The resulting report includes software licenses and installed updates so it is VERY handy for a snapshot of your system.
The process itself is straight-forward but took approximately 4 hours and at some points it appeared that it was not doing anything for extended periods. The install does show progress not only with a progress bar but a text line with what is actually happening.
One thing, I have decided as a result of this exercise is that I am going to get a decent 'imaging package' soon as another back-up that will make this whole process less manually intensive.
I will continue to monitor performance of the new system and may eventually take the plunge and do a 'clean install' as I have been told this takes about the same amount of time as the migration/update and you get the added benefit of all the 'cling-ons' from your past being cleared away. Will let you know if I decide to go that route and share that experience as well.

Durability testing helps the designer, manufacturer, retailer, and user understand how reliably a stove will perform over time. It is an important step in designing and selecting materials for a cookstove. In the field, cookstoves can undergo a substantial amount of stress due to high and frequent heat cycles. If inadequate materials are selected in the design stage, the cookstove will have trouble meeting the needs of the customer. Christian L'Orange from Colorado State University Engines and Energy Conversion Lab (CSU-EECL), Laura Clough from the Global Village Energy Partnership (GVEP) International, Joseph Ndemere Arineitwe from the Center for Integrated Research and Development Uganda (CIRCODU), and Paul Means from Burn Design Lab will each present on the importance of durability testing to their organizations and the process by which they test cookstove durability, including equipment used and metrics tracked.

Our cars come with more and better technology every model year, but most of it seems to be focused on the vehicle's electronics and convenience features. But some new products are bringing exciting changes to more mundane features of the cars, like rear-view mirrors.
There hasn't been much innovation in the side mirrors of cars, other than to heat and motorize them, and maybe to embed turn signals into them. In terms of their original purpose — to see what is behind and to your left and right rear — they're pretty much the same as they have always been.
Two new side view mirror features— one addressing the driver's side, the other the right-side mirror — may soon be incorporated into police vehicles, and at least one has significant officer safety implications.
Ford's 'Ambush Protection'
Police administrators generally like their cops to work out of their cars, completing reports and other paperwork in the field whenever possible. A hazard associated with this is when the officer loses situational awareness with the environment while focusing on the in-car computer or other tasks. People can walk up to the car unexpectedly, which can be both unnerving and dangerous.
Ford recently announced an option where a sensor will sound a chime, lock the doors and roll up the windows if it detects someone approaching the motionless car from the rear. If the car is equipped with a rear-facing backup camera, the camera will activate if someone approaching is detected. The system was developed through InterMotive of Auburn (Calif.).
As a stand-alone product, InterMotive sells "Surveillance Mode" for $248.33, but it's only $75 when bundled with the "Police Interface Module."
This system deactivates the interior, dome, and parking lights with a single command, lowers the volume on the broadcast radio when a call comes over the police radio, allows the driver to control the status of the daytime running lights, increases alternator output if battery voltage is low when idling, deactivates the seat belt, key in ignition and headlamp chime, and permits custom programming of the AUX or volume/seek buttons on the steering wheel.
Better Driver's Side Views
The right side mirror on U.S. cars is often fitted with a convex glass that permits the driver to see a greater angle of view. These mirrors distort size and distance, which is why they are required to have an "OBJECTS IN MIRROR MAY BE CLOSER THAN THEY APPEAR" disclaimer etched into them.
Mirrors on the driver's side have to be flat, which limits the driver's view to 15 to 17 degrees.
A new design by Dr. Andrew Hicks at Drexel University uses a mirror that is composed of a single piece of glass, but has a slight non-continuous curve that provides the driver with a view of about 45 degrees with very little distortion.
The effect is produced by changing the surface of the mirror so that it reflects like a mirrored disco ball, giving the driver a wide but relatively undistorted view of what's behind them. The design of the mirror required tens of thousands of complex calculations.
Another approach to the redesign of side mirrors comes from engineering professors at Hanbal National University in South Korea and Portland (Ore.) State University, where doctors have developed a mirror grinding technique similar to that used to produce "no line bifocal" eyeglasses.
The two focal lengths – up close and in the distance – are continuous, so that distant objects are viewed at the outer edge of the mirror and are seen by the inner portion as the object grows closer. The result is that there is no blind spot. When the object in the mirror disappears from its outer edge, the object is in the driver's peripheral vision to the left. There is some distortion of the images, but the distortions don't affect the appearance of the objects being closer or farther away than they actually are.
Current DOT regulations forbid the installation of anything but flat mirrors on the driver's side of cars, but these may be sold as an aftermarket accessory until and unless the regulations change.
We shall see in time if this technology makes it into the squad car of the future.

Many camp directors are cultivating a healthier bottom line by expanding their programming beyond the traditional summer season.
Offering camp programming to athletic teams is a target market that can pay great dividends as an entrepreneurial business venture.
However, there are several key factors that should be considered to ensure that "teambuilding at camp" can be a winning combination for both the camp director and athletic teams.
The Benefits
Team cohesion is all about how a team works together, how team members relate to one another and how athletes put the needs of their team before their own individual needs.
Most coaches would agree that team cohesion is a factor that is an essential component of team success. Coaches are always trying to find ways to build team bonds and believe that if teammates form positive relationships on and off the field that they are more likely to work together as a team.
Camp directors have the ideal setting to help coaches and their athletes develop team cohesion. The camp setting can provide an environment free of distractions that are part of the typical training setting: socializing with friends and family, traveling to and from the practice site, part-time jobs, the electronic comforts of home, and so on. Eliminating these distractions can help a team focus on the task at hand… improving as a team.
The camp setting also takes athletes outside of their comfort zone so that they must spend more time with their teammates and rely on them for "making it through the camp experience." This can have a tremendous impact on team cohesion because they are getting to know each other outside of the normal training routine.
This "power of knowing" can build what leadership guru Stephen Covey says is critical to the success of any relationship: "Building PC before P."
Covey believes that PC, or "production capability" (investing in the person by getting to know them and developing trust), needs to be achieved before asking them to "produce" (the P in the formula) in any task.
So if athletes and their coaches get to know each other outside of the production mode (training and competing), they have a much better chance of working together as a team.
This teambuilding concept at camp is an ideal way for team members to develop healthy relationships. They will learn more about each other than just the athletic side as they are immersed in a camp environment.
Another benefit of teams being immersed in the camp environment is that coaches will be able to optimize how the athletes eat, drink, and sleep.
Improving performance and preventing injuries have so much to do with how the athletes are getting their nutrients and the quality and amount of sleep they receive.
The camp staff and coaches can work together to design the optimal training conditions for a specific sport, which can give any team a leg up on the competition.
Formats that Work
There are two major formats of teambuilding at camp that are very successful for athletic teams: the pre-season kickoff and the off-season stimulus.
Both of these formats are designed for athletes and their coaches to work as a unit. The support staff who are employees of the camp would prepare the facilities and equipment for teams to use; support staff also can organize team activities that are not specific to the sport, like project adventure, paintball, fun-runs, aquatics and socializing opportunities.
The pre-season kickoff can be designed to build a tradition of excitement, enhanced team chemistry and positive momentum for pre-season training.
Typically, a team arrives for pre-season training with returners and rookies. The rookies will tell you that they have to work hard to be accepted and the initial anxiety is formidable.
It is also very easy for the returners to slide into their comfort zone and socialize with the teammates they already know. Under this traditional format, the team dynamic can already be compromised.
The alternative to this approach could be teambuilding at camp through a pre-season kickoff. It could be designed to put returners and rookies on an even playing field. Everyone is in a new environment and if the coaches really want to emphasize equality, the first day of teambuilding can be all about team challenges that have nothing to do with their sport, like project adventure skills and icebreakers.
The pre-season kickoff format helps everyone to invest in knowing each other before anyone steps on the playing field. As the pre-season camp progresses, more sport-specific activities can be added.

when will night nursing stop?
Find a Conversation
|Fri, 10-16-2009 - 12:48am
My daughter is 16 months old, and when she wakes at night, she nurses back to sleep. This is usually 4-5 times a night. We co-sleep, so it's not a big deal, but I sleep in her bed, and my spouse wants me back in our bed.
I just want to know what to expect if I do child-led weaning. Many more months of this? Years? Our daytime nursings are 5-6x/day (morning, mid-morning (sometimes), naptime, after nap, mid-evening, bedtime).
|Fri, 10-16-2009 - 8:37am
I'm just curious, why couldn't you sleep in your own bed and just have baby join you when she wakes for the first time? That's what we typically did.
|Sat, 10-17-2009 - 10:43am
That all depends it is not an exact science since STTN is a developmental milestone that different babies
|Sat, 10-17-2009 - 2:07pm
Thanks for your responses. I haven't been bringing her to our bed b/c she's a really light sleeper. We have a spring mattress, and every time we move, she wakes up. Her bed is a futon on the floor, so when I sleep with her and shift there, she doesn't wake up. Also, my spouse says that she doesn't sleep well when she sleeps with my LO, and she needs to be able to sleep for her work.
The past couple of nights, she's come to sleep with us in our LO's room, so that would solve the problem. We'll see if she continues to do that.
We considered bringing her to bed with us, but then we worried that that may start a habit of her wanting to come to our bed later when she's older rather than staying in her bed. Thoughts on that?
Since most babies seem to stop waking (needing attention) around 24 months, maybe I'll just wait until then.

They do eventually stop coming to your bed, if they did not I would have a REALLY crowded bed with an 11 year old, 4 year old and the baby. lol Our 4 year old will still occasionally come get in bed with us, but that is usually around 6 or 7am and then he will go back to sleep for a bit. The only time he has come and gotten in bed other than that in the last few months was when he was sick. IT has been years and years since the 11 year old came to our bed.
Certainly your spouse joining you all on the futon can work. If that works for all of you to get the most amount of sleep then it works.
We take the approach that they are little for such a short time that you do what you need to do. DH and I figure we will have time alone in our bed later and in the mean time there are other rooms in the house. ;) Honestly I can tell you that I sometimes miss cuddling with the older boys in bed - they really do grow up to fast.

Things change, of course—the only constant in the Middle East is sudden and dramatic change—but as I write it seems as if Israel is losing the war in Gaza, even as it wins the battle against Hamas's rocket arsenal, and even as it destroys the tunnels meant to convey terrorists underground to Israel (and to carry Israeli hostages back to Gaza).
This is not the first time Israel has found itself losing on the battlefield of perception. Why is it happening again? Here are six possible reasons:
1. In a fight between a state actor and a non-state actor, the non-state actor can win merely by surviving. The party with tanks and planes is expected to win; the non-state group merely has to stay alive in order to declare victory. In a completely decontextualized, emotion-driven environment, Hamas can portray itself as the besieged upstart, even when it is the party that rejects ceasefires, and in particular because it is skilled at preventing journalists from documenting the activities of its armed wing. (I am differentiating here between Hamas's leadership and Gaza's civilians, who are genuinely besieged, from all directions.)
2. Hamas's strategy is to bait Israel into killing Palestinian civilians, and Israel usually takes the bait. This time, because of the cautious nature of its prime minister, Israel waited longer than usual before succumbing to the temptation of bait-taking, but it took it all the same. (As I've written, the seemingly miraculous Iron Dome anti-rocket system could have provided Israel with the space to be more patient than it was.) Hamas's principal goal is killing Jews, and it is very good at this (for those who have forgotten about Hamas's achievements in this area, here is a reminder, and also here and here), but it knows that it advances its own (perverse) narrative even more when it induces Israel to kill Palestinian civilians. This tactic would not work if the world understood this, and rejected it. But in the main, it doesn't. Why people don't see the cynicism at the heart of terrorist groups like Hamas is a bit of a mystery. Here is The Washington Post on the subject:
The depravity of Hamas's strategy seems lost on much of the outside world, which — following the terrorists' script — blames Israel for the civilian casualties it inflicts while attempting to destroy the tunnels. While children die in strikes against the military infrastructure that Hamas's leaders deliberately placed in and among homes, those leaders remain safe in their own tunnels. There they continue to reject cease-fire proposals, instead outlining a long list of unacceptable demands.
3. People talk a lot about the Jewish lobby. But the worldwide Muslim lobby is bigger, comprising, among other components, 54 Muslim-majority states in the United Nations. Many Muslims naturally sympathize with the Palestinian cause. They make their voices heard, and they help shape a global anti-Israel narrative, in particular by focusing relentlessly on Gaza to the exclusion of conflicts in which Muslims are being killed in even greater numbers, but by Muslims (I wrote about this phenomenon here).
4. If you've spent any time these past few weeks on Twitter, or in Paris, you know that anti-Semitism is another source of Israel's international isolation. One of the notable features of this war, brought to light by the ubiquity and accessibility of social media, is the open, unabashed expression of vitriolic Jew-hatred. Anti-Semitism has been with us for more than 2,000 years; it is an ineradicable and shape-shifting virus. The reaction to the Gaza war—from the Turkish prime minister, who compared Israel's behavior unfavorably to that of Hitler's, to the Lebanese journalist who demanded the nuclear eradication of Israel, to, of course, the anti-Jewish riots in France—is a reminder that much of the world is not opposed to Israel because of its settlement policy, but because it is a Jewish country.
5. Israel's political leadership has done little in recent years to make their cause seem appealing. It is impossible to convince a Judeophobe that Israel can do anything good or useful, short of collective suicide. But there are millions of people of good will across the world who look at the decision-making of Israel's government and ask themselves if this is a country doing all it can do to bring about peace and tranquility in its region. Hamas is a theocratic fascist cult committed to the obliteration of Israel. But it doesn't represent all Palestinians. Polls suggest that it may very well not represent all of the Palestinians in Gaza. There is a spectrum of Palestinian opinion, just as there is a spectrum of Jewish opinion.
