I have to say that I am sick to my heart at what is going on in Gaza.
I don't think I can stomach another Israeli spokesman being trotted on to the TV news to spin and lie as they have been daily doing. The latest news of 3 rounds of (Willy Pete?) falling into (being targeted at?) the UN compound just goes to show, in my modest opinion, that Israel is an out of control rogue state engaging in what Jews once themselves suffered at the hands of the Nazis. In fact I can't barely prize away the feeling that we are witnessing the exact same psychological attitude. It's awful. It's evil in full rampage.
I am also glad David is back. I feel that we need a viewpoint that forces us to be careful in our analysis. But that still does not, imo, detract from the fact of the wholesale butchery of the most cynical kind is taking place and because the outgoing Bush Administration tacitly supports, it's set to continue.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
