"Some men know that a light touch of the tongue, running from a woman's toes to her ears, lingering in the softest way possible in various places in between, given often enough is the way to peace"?

the pointless Gaza carnage...which will not deter Hamas one iota
Israel has carefully timed this attack to happen under Bush's dying flame, before Obama comes in, in case he takes a harder line. It seems that Israel does intend to go in on the ground which will cause horrendous additional losses, but the myth that you can pulverize Hamas into submission is a nonsense. It just deepens the pain, the hatred, the suffering....and Kadimah and Labour parties hope it will improve their election chances. So important to remember how time and time again domestic Israeli politics (more than Palestinian) dictates military action. What is important is to realise the longer term stuckness in this conflict. As we've seen in three of our simulation games this year, there will be no movement to peace negotiations until Hamas and Fatah reconcile, and this is Israel's attempt to weaken Hamas in that Palestinian contestation...but it will have the opposite effect. One must wonder now whether Israel really wants a comprehensive peace which involves a major withdrawal from the West Bank, or is their intention to stay there, and hope for an historical turn, where they don't ever have to leave. To my mind totally short-sighted. Israel needs to be accepted in the region, and this week's attacks further distances that probability, and more importantly will only enhance Hamas' aura, and will not reduce it. If this secures a Livni victory, all the blood and pain may be worth it, because that is the Israeli party that MAY bring peace. Tzipi knows every parameter of what a comprehensive peace treaty will look like. Netanyahu is the rejectionist. For those hurting at the carnage...remember in our flawed nation-state anchored international system only 'national interest' matters, and by definition war is assured sooner or later...the nation state system is programmed to deliver war not peace.

> I would like to welcome everyone to the Spiritual Fasting Group starting on 11th of January for at least 21 days. Fasting is very powerful to bring forth things in your life that are positive and remove anything that is negative. Fasting purifies the spirit and enhance the mind and body to a healthier life. See below:
>
> Know that all human hearts are welcome here, regardless of one's color, creed, condition or philosophy, because everyone is just like you and me--wanting happiness, and disliking suffering. In other words, seeking joy and freedom from suffering is the birthright of all living beings (not just us humans).
>
> The word 'spiritual' has many connotations, but all of us who've done prolonged, skillful fasting know our mind is clearer, sharper and more efficient--a greater clarity of consciousness. By using this fasting-enhanced clarity, our journey into the human interior can reward us with many essential correctives to the extreme materialism of our external culture and its dominant sciences. Also, just as our own inner-mind becomes clearer, our own extrasensory instinct becomes keener. Thus, we find ourselves more in tune with the gentle voice of Nature and its Natural Laws. And so, the increase in energy prolonged fasting confers is our own reward for getting back in touch with these so-called Laws of Nature.

News: Wars and rumors of Wars around the world, Palestinians and Jews are being murdered, Poverty, Environment dying, Fla. woman likely jumped overboard (suicide), In Phila. 6 dead and 3 wounded (violence), Cheyenee, Wyo earthquakes 3 days straight, China border 3 tremors Dec. 27th and In May 80,000 people killed from earthquakes and more. It is imperative that we fast and ask for the relief of suffering around the world. What affects one affects all!!!!! If need advice on how to fast, please ask at anytime-we have a teacher to teach us.
Thanks so much for your friendship!!!

Peace, Love, Health, Joy and Harmony for you and your family!!!
